"Boy" Howard Ehmke may be worth 112,000 to some major league club, but against Portland he doesn't look much stronger than 112. The Beavers prod ded him for 11 lusty clouts yesterday, and. with Krause pitching suparb ball, had no trouble winning the first game of the series from Los Angeles. Score: Portland. 7; Loa Angeles, J. San Francisco failed to arrive at Los Angeles in time to start Its series with Venice yesterday, so Portland went up to within one game of Venice. If the Tlger lose today and Portland wins, watch us in the second hole. Visitors Have o Chance. Portland triumphed yesterday by getting the Jump on Ehmke, and, aa he waa accorded poor support, the visi tors never had a chance. The closest they crowded was 3-2 In the fourth inning and the fans were not kept long in suspense, for Portland scored one run In each of the last four innings. Ellis was the one exception to the "poor support" alibi, which Is Ehmke's privilege this morning. The southpaw gardener pulled one of the prettiest running catches of the season In the third inning off Kores' drive. For Portland Bancroft and Kores featured with stellar plays, but again let us mention Krause. Harry allowed only three hits and deserved to win almost any game. The second inning proved most pro lific for Portland, three runs being scored on hits by Ryan, Kores and Krause, and Leber's long fly. The first run was earned, but Maggert let Krause's single trickle through his fingers and helped the other two in their mad dash across the home plate. Ehmke In Tight Place. Ehmke found himself In dire straits In the fifth and sixth innings, with the bases full, but escaped In fairly good shape. In the fifth, hits by Derrick and Rodgers and Abstein's low throw to third turned the trick, but Ryan's long sacrifice was the best the Beavers could muster. In the next frame Fisher and Krause both bounced drives through third and so rattled the six footer that he walked two men, forc ing one across. An error by Gedeon after Lober's double presented another In the sev enth, and a walk and Doane's two-bagger caused the final clanging of the gong in the eighth. Krause Walks Two Only. Southpaw Krause walked only two men. as against six for Ehmke. but lie hit one man and it was the dead ball that cost him his first run In the third inning. A bunt and aa out put Metzger on third and Heinle scored when Derrick dropped a throw at first. Two walks In a row and Moore's Ingle registered the Angels' one earned tally In the fourth. Southpay Krause steadied then and during the last five innings only one batsman reached first base safely Oedeon on a two-bagger to left Ged eon, by the way. made his bow to local fans after nearly two years in the big brush, with Washington.

Nearly 2600 fans were out for the Initial game of what threatens to be a rip snorting series. Five thousand bugs In unison: "By winning Six consecutive games from the Angela, Port land can gain first place this series." Correct. "We pass the buck to an Incorrect percentage table in one of the afternoon ex tras. Portland can reach first place, but there are three potent reasons why such a sodden aviating is almost Impossible, Los Angeles, Venice and San Francisco. Young Ehmke must have had a brain storm In the seventh, for he threw to sec ond base on a grounder by Krause, although two were out at the time. jack Ryan was scheduled to pitch for Los Angeles, but Jack was 111 and was saved for today. Penitt Is also due for service. HI West and Irve Hlgglnbotham are next In line aa McCredte's choices. Pitcher Love Is making his first trip of the year north. Love Is so tall he could wash the fifth-floor windows of the North western Bank building without using a ladder. Dave Bancroft is playing remarkable ball for the Beavers and he looks like a coming big leaguer, but Dave will have to learn to keep bis head up on the bases. Yesterday he was doubled on an ordinary pop fly to shortstop. The hit-and-run sign was on, but that doesn't prevent other players from keeping their wits on an even keel. OAKLAND KEEPS TJP RALLY tTailenders Win Over Senators by One Ron in 4-3 Game. SAN FRANCISCO, July 14. Oakland, tail-end team of the Pacific Coast League, continued the rally It enjoyed last week by taking the first game of the series with Sacramento 4 to 3. While the Oaks hit Williams freely, they were not successful in capitalis ing on any of their dozen hits, except la the fourth Inning, when they gath ered their day's score. It all happened after Moran, in oenter field, misjudged a short fly by Ness and allowed the Oakland second base man to run It Into a three-bagger. Zacher singled, bringing in Ness, but was out trying to steal second. Toung was spiked In the hand in a collision at second base and had to retire from the game, causing a shift in Sacra- mento's infield. Then Hetllng singled, Menges doubled and Alexander walked, filling the bases, and Prough, conect- Ing with a wild pitch, singled to right, scoring both Hetling and Menges. Alex ander scored on Quinlan's infield hit. Thn GrnrA Sacrament .

Ossie won fame as battery partner to Rube Waddell when Rube was star pitcher of Connie Mack's team a few years ago. Ty Cobb has a strong lead, as usual. In the American League batting rec ords. Walker, of the Browns, is his nearest rival, but close behind are Sam Crawford. Frank Baker, Joe Jackson, Eddie Collins and Tris Speaker. Last year there were 35 men batting over .300 in the Johnson circuit and now this has slumped to 12. In the Nation al that old pace-setter, Hans Wagner, Is down around .280. Wagner led the National League eight times, 1191 be ing his last stand. Zimmerman fin ished at the top in 1912 and Daubert in 1913. A New York boxing critic says Welsh's victory over Ritchie will stim ulate the game in the lightweight divi sion. We are from Missouri. The very word champion implies the old coma clout and a clever boxer, minus a punch, will never be popular. From the looks of things, the lightweight game suffered a terrible kidney punch in Ritchie's defeat. It wouldn't be so bad were Willie to get another chance soon at the Briton, but It develops that the announcement of a second bout already tied up was untrue. Now that Welsh Is champion it's pretty near a cinch that he will keep It until he corrodes, for he is get ting well along toward the 30 mark and his manager, Pollok, is too wise to take many chances. , Joe Bayley and Johnny O'Leary fought a 15-round draw at Vancouver Saturday.

Georges Carpen tter, the French champion, who Is to meet Gunboat Smith, the American heavyweight, in a 20-round fight at Olympia on Thursday, came to London today. Arriving at Charing Cross be was the recipient of a demonstration that for size and enthusiasm would not have bean accorded a popular for eign monarch.
