Thereupon Bill waited and drew a walk. Ryan ac cepted his enthusiastic welcome by .gritting his teeth and slamming a sin gle into right center. . Rodgers coursed all the way to third base by dint of hard sprinting, and he scored a moment later when Korea smashed a sizzling: liner through First Baseman Ness. Fledgling Ramey Goes. That spoiled what otherwise might have been a neck-and-neck contest to the finish line. Thereafter the Beav ers were always in the lead. After an uncouth carving, the fledgling Ramey was knocked clear out of kelter in the seventh inning and Jack Killilay relieved him. Jack soothed the Beavers momentari ly, but In the eighth Bud Ryan's triple down the first-base line and a sacri fice fly by Kores scored the fourth run. , With a 3-0 lead behind him in the eighth, Higginbotham eased up tem porarily and the experiment was not altogether a howling success. Elmer Jiacher and Gus Hetling poked out hits on the heels of a single by Murphy, and two runs scampered across. That was in the eighth, mind you. Captain Rodders immediately waltzed in for a discussion with Hig ginbotham on the ground rules, the Trice of next Spring's bock beer, the Huerta flag salute, and other prime topics Telated distantly to baseball, and Hig tightened up like a cup de fender in a stiff breeze. HigKinbotbam Im Cool. Aside from that symptom of combus tibility and one earlier uprise in the fourth. Hig was as cool and collected as an Eskimo igloo in asblizzard. He twirled a great game of ball. The massive hunk of pitching appar atus didn't try to fan every man up, but reserved his strength for the pinches, remembering that Walt Mc Credie had eight others out there sup posed to be drawing revenue. All told 11 Commuters' nicked Hig ginbotham for hits as against nine off . Ramey and Killilay. Immediately after the iynth began the slow drill to the exits. There was . little hysteria; little outward show of the jubilation that filled the local hearts, mainly because of the scarcity of really thrilling incidents. But the fans had seen the Beavers at last, and most of them departed nursing the opinion that they wiil do as pennant contenders, i Little remains to be said except by way of gratifying those who demand details. Here goes. Details Start With Rush. Portland scored one run in the first inning, one in the third, -one In the sixth and the final tally in the eighth. Rodgers' walk, Ryan's single and Kores' infield hit caused Oak depres sion to saturate the atmosphere in the r first frame, as hereinbefore chronicled. , In the third inning a wild throw to first by Second Sacker Murphy, of the Oaks, put Speas on second base. Rodgers next emitted a base hit to left and the doughty captain and Speas pulled the first bit of electricity by a successful double steal. No play was made on Speas at the plate, principally because Shorstop Cook dropped Mitze's snap throw in his haste to return the favor. In the seventh inning this same Mur phy fellow relayed wild to third base on a three-base swat to deep center by Bill Rodgers and Bill trotted home looking as important as an uninstructed delegate. Murphy "Thorn in Flesh. Murphy was considerable of a thorn In the side of his sidekicker, Ramey, all day, but in this instance Rodgers would ! have scored anyway, as Kyan walloped a. single into left Just after Bill had slid his spikes across the bosom of the old home plate. Southpaw Ramey also walked Lober in this crisis and .Devlin immediately yanked him to the rathskeller under the grandstand, substituting Killilay. Ramey left like March went out ami also left Jack a heritage of three balls on Davis. Jack walked Bobby, filling the bases, but Fisher and Hig were easy victims, and the Oaks extricated themselves from an almost painful di lemma. Ryan's triple and Kores' sacrifice fly to short right field scored the fourth . Portland tally in the last half of the eighth inning. Chance of Redemption Slight. Oakland's hopes then ducked into the deep, for there was slight chance of their overcoming a 4-2 handicap. And so it ended. Doane furnished one of the spectac - ular features by a great catch of Cook's " drive up against the fence in theifth. Another cropped up in the fourth when the Oaks had the bases full with nobody out, as a result of a scratch hit, Zaoher's double and a walk. Ness filed to Speas. and Mitze blasted the straggling Oak optimism by hitting into a sharp double play, Higgin botham to Fisher to Speas. To those who were present' when Portland and Los Angeles played their sensational 1-1 opening tie game one year ago, yesterday's atmosphere was a. little surprising, for it was not what might be termed a heart-breaker. But, the game counts as much as any other in the percentage reckoning. After the conflict, Walt McCredie granted an interviewer a wide grin. and Bald: "It was a good game, wasn't it?" x Indeed. , -The score: Oakland Portland B It O A E B II O A E 4 10 0 1 lloanc.r. .. 3 1 J 1 0 Quinlan.l.

Cnrtain-Ralser at Park Provocative of Slack Merriment bat as to Re sult of One-Inning" Game Views) Are Varied. Portland's baseball fans again ret the credit for making up the popu lation of one of the real live baseball town on the Pacific circuit. Each of the "stunts" planned by the baseball boosters went as scheduled. The parade was a success. Promptly at 1:15 It swung down Morrison street and by 2 o'clock it was up at Four teenth and Morrison streets, and the players and fans were headed for the park. The first machines of the pageant contained George Li. Baker, president of the Baseball Boosters, and President McCredie, of the Portland baseball club. The Oakland and 'Beaver teams fol lowed them. Next came the Highballs, the team which played that startling one-inning- preliminary to the Beaver eTa me. One of the hits of both the ' parade and the ceremony at the ball park was the fife-and-drum corps of the Spanish American War Veterans. These little tads made up the noisiest part of the programme and added materially to the amount of steam present. Cnrtain-Ralser Enjoyed. Everybody had a lot of fun out of the Booster-Beaver same. Though no one would make affidavit to that ef fect, it is said on good authority that the Boosters had the best of the game. Score. 3 to 1, in the fatal first. The Boosters had first bats, with Haworth and Milligan opposing them. Dr. T. L. Perkins wVs the first' up, and filed to second. He tried to come back for another "bas," but was dis covered by Dr. Anderson, umpixe-as-it-were, and E. E. Larrimore came up. Larrimore shted at a couple of them. He has wonderful stability, and while In one of his gyrations around the plate, connected with one and got to first. Dr. Kenton struck out. Ed Wer leln was up next and he plastered one down through the fields' and main tained that he was entitled to a ton of coal for httting some sign. Carlisle Brings In Rata. He wanted to start something on the strength of it. but finally was con vinced that the ball Tell 100 fuet short of the sign. Carlisle singled and stole and also brought in Larrimore. Just then it began to look as If the Beavers might be able to play a little baseball, but they were hardly on their feet when Harvey O'Bryan, H. Wallace, J. Kanzler and B. Garrison all got hits and brought In some runs. Somehow that seems to be getting jumbled. Some one In that bunch made an out, but the scorers were unable to detect who. How long It. would have gone on. no one knows. It is said that Dr. Anderson will never umpire another game for the Beavers. He allowed as many as six strikes to one man. but in spite of his vigilance, the Boosters finally made a third out, and the Beavers had their innings. The fielding of Dr. Fenton and his colleagues was Impregnable. Doane was accused of trying to hurry mat ters by loafing on his way to first and thus assisting in an out. but the ball was such a long time coming that he could not avoid getting safe. That may not be the way the In ning went, but no two could agree, so this account will do as well as any. Just before the Oakland-Beaver game E. S. Higgins presented Walter Mc Credie and Arthur Devlin each with an immense bunch of carnations. The pennant-raising was attended to by George S. Shepherd and George L Baker. This was Portland's fourth pennant-raising. GOULD AND 11C1IN" VICTOUS Xational Court Tennis Champions Appear in Iiare l-'oriu. BOSTON. April 16. Jay Gould andVV. H. T.

The following Is a fair sample: "Captain of the Pay Relief Dear Sir: Took in frame at ball park.
