BY ROSCOE FAWCETT.
They may be cutting1 each others
throats abroad, but a German and an
Irishman drank toasts to each other
last night in Portland. The German
was Bill Speaa and the Irishman Buddy
Ryan. These two ball stars conspired
to give Portland a thrilling ninth
inning victory over Sacramento yes
terday, 3-2. in the initial game of the
aeries.
in tahinM hnrA's the story:
Speaa went to bat in the last half
r ,h. ninth with two out and the
acore 2-2. Suddenly Bill poked a single
into centerfield. Coy blocked the ball,
took his time picking it up and relay
ing to the inner division of Uhlans
and before, he awoke the spry Teuton
was perched on second base.
Speas Regular Dare-Devil.
Speas' baeerunning was as daring
a piece of work as we have seen since
.Roosevelt "nipped" is own book In
Portland two or three years ago. It
caught the entire Sacramento team
napping and proved the crucial break.
Buddv Ryan, next up, ambled to the
plate." whacked a single between short
and third and scored Speas with the
winning run.
Thus ended sensationally a game
that was dragged out over two hours
and 15 minutes, yet waa studded
everywhere with sparkling episodes.
Lfty Williams pitched brilliant ball
lor Sacramento, but so did Martinoni.
who gave way to a brigade of pinch
bitters in the seventh. Southpaw Lush
relieved Marty and after going one
Inning Pape took a turn at filnging
for some reason or another.
In toto, Walt McCredie usod 14 play
ers, Ryan relieving Lober wheCrause
batted for the gardener. l.ywa'a hit
was made on hia only pilgrimage to
the plate.
Beaver Arrive Late.
Owing to the long jump from Los
Angeles the Beavers did not arrive
until late and the game waa 15 min
utes late in starting. Close to 3000
fans were out to welcome the boys
home after three weeks abroad and a
great deal of enthusiasm was mani
fested. Portland got the jump wtth a tally in
the second inning on Davis hit, theft
of second. Hannah's tow throw to sec
ond and an Infield grounder.
Sacramento tied up in the fourth
on Tennant'a single to right. Coy's
single and an infield out and forged to
the front In the seventh, when ".Doc"
Cook so surprised Bill Rodgers that
"Cap" permitted htm to score from
third base following an infield fly.
Vantz belted across the tying run
In the last of the seventh after a walk
.to Davis and Speas' dead ball. From
then to the finish it w,as a dead heat
with everything portending extra inn
ings, when Speas and Ryan got in
their deadly licks.
Shortstop Orr made his debut of the
year in Portland and played wonder
ful ball and so did Dave Bancroft, for
the Mackmen. Doane saved the day
at one juncture by a great throw to
second on Coy's lam against the right
Held fence. Score:

H. C. Davis. Jr.. of the Waverly
Country Club, has been appointed by
Chairman Asthury, of the Gearhart
Park golf tournament, to act as chair
man of an attendance committee, with
a view to interesting more outsiders
in the beach play. The tourney takes
place on the Gearhart links August
18 to 2J.
Mr. Davis is working to make this
the biggest tournament ever held In
Oregon, a feat which he considers by
no means impossible in view of the
interest already displayed.
"This tournament really is Oregon's
sole one In which the Northwest is
well represented," says M. Davis. "The
Oregon state championships seldom
bring more than 10 from the whole
Northwest, while this beach tourney
brings men from Canada, as well as
the Northwest states.
"The Seattle delegations of both men
and women will be stronger than usual,
I believe, and many of the Waverly
players already are at tne Deacn. many
more will leave at the end of this week.
Links Declared Ideal.
"The Gearhart links are ideal, ac
cording to some of those who have
been on them in the last few weeks.
Probablv nowhere are the climatic con
ditions more favorable to the produc
tion of links rivalling those ot bcot-land.
With these main things in its ravor.
T am lookinsr forward to a bigger list
of entries than ever and I know that
Waverly will have more players on the
beach links than it ever had."
Geors.- Turnbull. the Waverly pro
fessional, will have charge of the tour
nament and will leave for the beach at
once to superintend the preliminary details.

York Yacht Club does not consider It
proper for the races for the America's
cup to be neld this October, G. A. Cor
mack. secretary of the club, -o cabled
today to H. L. Garrett, of the Royal Ul
ster Yacht Club, through which Sir
Thomas Lipton sent his challenge. Mr.
Cormack's cable message read:
"We regret that In view of the grave
condltons due to the war we do not
think it proper to race in October. We
are willing to postpone the series until
1915, subject to further negotiations as
to date. We request a cable reply as
soon as possible.
This cablegram, in response to one
received from Mr- Garrett on Sunday
suggesting a postponement of the races
until next year if war was still In
progress a month after the September
dates originally set, is the latest o a
series of cable messages exchanged be
tween the clubs here and in Belfast
Ireland, and between the New York
Yacht Club and Sir Thomas Ljpton,
leading up to what Is expected to be an
agreement to defer the International
vatchine: event.
Sir Thomas Linton had cabled from
London, under date of august 6, this
query:
"In view of serious war conditions
if I can communicate with Erin, will
your committee kindly allow Erin to
tow Shamrock remaining distance;
Under the conditions of the deed of
gift of the Americas cup, the chal
lenging" yacht must cross the ocean
under her own sails. It 1b assumed
here that Sir Thomas feared that the
Shamrock during a slow trip under her
own sails might be captured by war
shiDS hostile to England. The Sham
rock was well on her way to the United
States when Sir Thomas' request was
received.
The New York. Yacht Club replied
that the committee representing the
New York Yacht Club did not possess
authority to change the deed of gift.
The message today, however, ex
plained the attitude of tne club.

Odd thing about this Prince Albert to
bacco you get on mighty familiar
speaking terms with it by the time
you've smoked half a pipeful or a joy
roll cigarette. Just kind of built that
way ! It's so easy to get acquainted with,
even tobacco-shy folks go-to-it natural
and easy, because it's so gentle-Ae.r
You ought to know that P. A- couldn't bite
tongues if it wanted to, because it is made by a
patented process that removes the bite and the
parch, leaving for you just delightful flavor
and fragrance. Now, get all that down right
pat! But you'll know it by heart as soon as
Nyou get chummy with
BERT
the
Men all over the nation went to P. A.
as natural as falling off a log. Because
it's a revelation in smokings.
And you get this: Five years ago
Prince Albert blew into town unknown,
unsung! Today it has caused three
men to smoke a pipe where one smoked
before right smart testimony that here
is tobacco that will tickle your
palate most! Get that listen
into your system for what ails
your smokappetite !
