BY P.OSCOE FAVfOBTT.
In Irve Hlgginbotham Portland has
a great pitching: staff. McCredie had to
work his Dutch gunner out of turn
yesterday to stem the assaults of the
fast-rushing Seals, but he Justified the
boss' confidence and then some.
It was the Anal game of the Beavers"
three weeks' stay. and. Just to show
that he could come back strong with
only two days' rest the bulky Teuton
hurled the Seals back bleeding and
wounded under a five-hit blanket.
The score was: Portland 4, San Fran
cisco 0.
The shutout duplicated his Thurs
day feat against Spider Baum, 4-0
Portland's lone victory of the series up
to Sunday su one can hardly be
blamed for remarking that without
Higginbotham the champs would be
as a motorcar sans gasoline.
Nearly 5000 fans were in the stand
when the umpires announced that Hig
ginbotham and Southpaw Pernoll would
be the rival hurlsmiths. About 4000
went home happy and satisnea.
Balk Alda One Ron.
Pernoll pitched air-tight ball up to
the sixth; then greased his own to
boggan chute. Tiie Seal John Bunny
tried to catch Bancroft off first base
after his hit In the sixth, balked in the
attempt and Bancroft was given a pass
port for second base.
Kores brought him in with a single
to center field.
That one run would have been suf
ficient, but in the eighth. Bancroft
and Kores again hopped onto the tra
jectories of the Grants Pass eugenics
model and drove the clinching spikes.
Bancroft began by doubling past
third base. Rodgers and Derrick
proved easy outs and then Bancroft
purloined third. Kores Immediately
doubled to . right, scoring Bancroft;
Speas doubled to right, scoring Kores,
and Davis singled over second, scoring
Speas.
Final, Portland 4. Seals 0ft
The Seals left last night with four
of the six games tucked under their
belts, yet Sunday's defeat railroaded
Del Howard's crew down to third place.
Los Angeles won a double bill from
Venice again yesterday and Jumped to
second place, within three and one-half
games of the Beavers.
Hig'a victory not only was his second
of the week, but was his fifth consecu
tive victory since the Mackmen re
turned to domestic soil three weeks
ago. He has won more games this
year than any other pitcher in the
league and ought to top Vean Gregg's
great record with the Beavers in 1910.
Hlu Wins Two of Each Three.
Gregg won 32 and lust 18 and with
eight weeks to go Hig has already
cbalked up 24 wins as against 12
losses.
He fell Into two or three bad situa
tions yesterday. Under fire, however,
the 33-year-old wizard dominated the
doings like a chef is master of a slice,
of bacon. In the third he fanned
t-challer for the third out with two
bases populated. Bobby Davis helped
appreciably in the sixth, making a
great stop and peg on Schallor's liner.
The fielding of Bancroft and Corhan
was another sparkling feature of the
day.
Both teams departed for the south
last evening, Portland with 14 wins
and seven defeats for the three weeks
at home. Portland will stop off today
for a barnstorming game at Yreka,
Cal., and will open Tuesday at Sacra
mento for a 10-game series. with
Southpaw Evans In the box.
fan Francisco tackles Los Angeles
in tho new Seal park this week and a
warm battle for second place impends.
Htandridge will pitch the opener for
the seals.

ANGKLS TAKE SECOND PIiACE
Rowdy Elliott Out of Game Due to
Injury to His Hand.
LOS ANGELES. Aug. 30. Los Ange
lea took two ragged games from Ven
ice today, the morning one at Venice.
9 to 4, and the afternoon game here.
7 to 3. Thereby Los Angeles climbed
Into second place over San Francisco's
misfortune.
Both Venice defeats may be attrib
uted largely to poor receiving work at
the home plats after Rowdy Elliott's
hand waa hurt. Hogan and some other
Venice catchers did their best, but they
disheartened their team. Elliott will
be out of the game for a week at least,

Oregon Aggie football stock soared
several points yesterday, when it be

though not as fasrt as a Jackrabblt. He
would prove valuable to the Oregon
Aggies at end, if not in the back
field. At present "Dark Horse," as New

astic realms, is with a seining crew
near Astoria. News of his decision to
Join the Aggies was brought to Port

After a week of firing over the state
range at Clackamas station the crack
riflemen of the Oregon National Guard
completed their annual rifle competi
tion yesterday. After trophies, med-
VETERAN, WHO WON FIFTH
als and cash awards had been distrib
uted to the winning marksmen the
troops returned to home stations. The
competition proved one of the most
successful and hardest contested of any
yet held.
Only scores that were perfect or
close thereto figured in the prize
awards. In the Oregon National Guard
are a number of the finest rifle shots
in the United States, a fact which was
emphasized a year ago in the National
matches in Ohio, when the Oregon
sharpshooters scored over every other
National Guard in the United States
and in addition beat the United States
Regular Army's crack infantry team,
all of whom had been selected with
great care and carefully coached for
the contest
Sertreantn Are Crack Men.
Two Oregon riflemen stood out dis
tinctly as stars in tho week's events.
These were Sergeants J. H. Wolford
and S. W. Pearson, both of the Fourth
Company of Coast Artillery Corps Re
serves, stationed at Roseburg. Not
only did one or the other capture most
of the individual matches in which they
entered, but they were a big factor in
the victory by the Roseburg team over
all other company teams In the state
team match. .
The firing programme was one to
test the efficiency in marksmanship
In the most severe way. A smoky haze
lay over the rifle range all week and
made the targets barely discernible at
1000 yards. In spite of this the aver
age was well above center and a num
of scores were made of as high as 47,
48 and 49 points out of 50.
In the Wimbledon Cup match at 1000
yards regular army marksmen entered,
a team being snt from Vancouver Bar
racks to shoot in several of the
matches. The two high men were
Guardsmen, Sergeants Pearson and
Wolford, the first named winning with
a total score of 49. Third place went
to Private T. E. Vereer, and fourth to
Lieutenant R. S. Hartz, of the Twenty
first United States Infantry.
Lieutenant's Score Perfect.
In the rapid-fire match at 200 yards
a perfect score of 50 points out of 50
was made by Lieutenant G. C. Rock
well, of the Twenty-first, with Ser
geant V. S. Howard, Third Oregon In
fantry, second, and Sergeant E. Mar
shall, United States Engineers, third.
A Twenty-first Infantryman also won
the Leach cup for the highest aggregate
scores at 800 and also 900 and 1000
yards, the winner being Private J. P.
Lyons.
In the state contests a majority of
the awards went to members of tho
Coast Artillery Corps Reserves, their
victories Including the,Butterfield tro
phy match, the state individual match,
the state team match, the Wimbledon
trophy match, the Governor's tropny
match, the state medal match, the tyro
match and the Kern trophy match.
The National Rifle Association match
was won by Ensign L S. Spooner, of
the Naval Reserves, who also won the
Naval Reserve members' match. The
state revolver match was won by Ser
geant Pearson, with Sergeant Howard
second.
Wolford Best All Around.
The eight high men in the individual
match were Sergeant Wolford. Ser
geant Pearson. Lieutenant O. A. Ste
vens, of the Third Rtgiment; L. H.
Spooner. Naval Reserves; L. M. Dennis,
Thixd Infantry; Ensign Spooner, C. H.
Meyers, Naval Reserves: and Lieuten
ant J. R. Near, of the Artillery Re
serves. The highest score in both slow
and rapid-fire in this match was made
by Sergeant Wolford.
The competition was in charge of
Colonel C. H. Martin, Third Infantry,
who acted as executive officer. Major
V. W. Wilson was in charge of the
firing line as chief range officer. The
range officers were Captains Mosh

up, and then passed the next two bat
ters. With the bases full he was taken
out and Schneider went into the box.
Schneider was also wild and passed the
first man that faced him and hit th3

POLO IS WON BY
PORTLAND HI BOISE
Trophy, Won by Idahoans Last
Year, Recovered by Winnir.g
Three Straight Games.
VICTORS PLAY STAR GAME
Thrill Added to Sensational Play
When Robertson, or Winners, Is
Thrown by His Mount, Crash
ing Into Side Boards.
BOISE, Idaho, Aug. 30. (Special.)
Portland lifted tho Northwestern polo
championship, held by Boise, today, by
defeating the Boise team in the third
straight game. The score: Portland 7,
Boise 3.
The "Webfooters" turned the final
game almost into a rout, outplaying
Boise from the start.
The championship hinged on the
best three out of five games, the first
taking place Wednesday, the second
Friday and the third today. Boise won
the championship from Portland last
year. This year the visitors easily
won the three games necessary in a
row. Team work and hard hitting won
for them. The Corbett brothers, Ham
ilton and Harry, were the stars of to
day's game.
Portland Blocks Effectively.
In two periods Portland scored six
goals and all told counted eight, but
one point was taken off for fouls.
Hopelessly trailing in tne rear, coisu
laved desDerate polo, allempting to
even up the lead, but Portland's block
ing tactics prevented them from ac
complishing much.
Robertson, star Portland player, was
unhorsed in tne nun periuo. vmeii mo
mount, ruming at a terrific pace,
stumbled over the sideboards on the
field and crashed to the ground. Rob
ertson shot over his head, alighting on
his feet unhurt. It was a narrow es
cape. By periods the score was as iouows.
First, no scores; second, Johnson and
Robertson for Portland; third, Hamil
ton Corbett 3, Johnson 2 for Portland,
while a half point was taken oft for a
foul by Portland; fourth, Ostner for
Boise; fifth, Hamilton Corbett for
Portland; sixth, Ostner for Boise, foul
for Portland; seventh, Lemp for Boise,
eighth, no scores.
Trophy Given Pertland.
Immediately following the lasr
period the trophy cup was presented to
the victorious Portland team and will
be carried to the Rose City tomorrow.
Playing was sensational during sev
eral periods of the game. Both teams
raided their opponents' goals with des
perate and dare-devil riding that had
spectators on their feet cheering lus
tily. Portland took every chance and
left few openings. Trie visitois
hugged the ball and their Ions, true
shots always proved effective. They
often broke away from the field to
carry the ball into Boise territory and
there shoot goals at ainicuu angles.
Both teams play in the bpoKane tour
nament next month.

"I'm sorry to see him on the bench,

Standridge is the best prospect in tne

"The two Portland men. Ryan and

their hlttinc ability. All my first

best of the rliehthand hitters."
Jakey Baumgarten, former umpire

last Spring, but fell off tho wagon at

Three recruits will Join the San

tomorrow. Two of them are pitchers.
Couch and Barham. and the third Is

Barham was bought from Cincinnati
and farmed to Ogden. while Couch was
with the Seal farm in the California
State League last year. '
HI West, Sam Brenegan and Llnd
were left behind by the Beavers last
night.
Waivers have been asked on West.
It leaked out last night. Sacramento
Is in dire straits for pitchers and It
is barely possible that HI will land
with the Senators.
Wolverton's latest recruit Is Lou
Stanley, fromerly of Portland, who
was released by Spokane a fortnight
ago. Stanley lost his first game the
other day after leading up to the
eighth Inning 2-0.
West Is one of the sweetest pitchers
in the league in condition and Wolver
