That's the whole story and that's why the Beavers took today's double-header from the Angels, 3 to 0 and 7 to 1. Berry's high-priced ball nosers looked like a lot of rank hicks ' compared to McCredle's crew, and the result of either game was never In doubt. If Johnny Lush could have gotten rid of Harry Wolter In the first affair, he would have scored a no-run-no-hit game, Wolter being the only Angel to hit safely. He got a single In the first inning and nearly scored, being nipped at the plate on an infield out. His other safe rap came In the sixth, these two being the sum total made off Lush. Wolter Errors Aid. But had Wolter been from the game It would have been harder sledding for Portland, as his two errors let in the first two runs. In the fourth frame Rodgers walked, a single by Fisher, a double by Ryan and Wolter's first wild heave let in two men. In the sixth singles by Doane and Korea and Wol ter's second error gave the Beavers their third tally. The Angels could do nothing at all with Lush, Wolter being the only man to get past first base The second game was painful to gaze upon. Kid Ehmke,. touted as the find of the season, was sent in to stem the tide, and the way he stemmed it was a caution. Every Beaver except Rodg ers took a poke at him, several of them twice, and the ball was kept chasing to all corners of the lot. Angells Score Lute Lone One. With one run home in the second in nine: and a man on second and third. Krause singled and practically won his own game, as Portland didn't .need any more and the best Los Angeles couia do was to work one over in the ninth. Derrick enjoyed the pleasure of being chased out of this game in the first In ning and then being reinstated. He sent a bouncing grounder over second base and thought he had beat out Johnson's throw, but Umpire Mc Carthy said he was out Enraged, Der rick grabbed McCarthy's cap and threw It in the air. He was promptly Dan lshed, but before he got off the dia mond Mac relented and called him back.

Venice and the Missions divided a double- header today, the first game, which was played in San Francisco, going to the Missions, o to 1. After the lunch period hostilities were resumed In Oakland, where Venice romped away with an easy victory, 11 to 4. Williams, who started the game for the Missions, was clouted to all parts of the field in the second Inning, in which Venice sent eight men across the plate.

San Jfrancisco received a serious setback in the pennant race today at the hands of the Oakland team, two coats o( white wash being applied by the cellarites. The morning- game, played in Oakland, was a nip and tuck affair until the Beventh inning, when Pitcher Lefty Leifield blew up, allowing three hits, which nettad the two runs of the ses sion. The long Winning streak of "Pete" Standrldge, the Seals' heaver, was broken in the afternoon, Oakland wln Jiir.ir, 3 to 0. Dowllng, the Oakland re cruit, whose bobbles at second base presented yesterday's game to San Francisco, was largely accountable for both Oakland victories today. He ac cepted 14 chances at the keystone sack without a boot during both games, got three hits in six times at bat and stole two bases. Score: First game: San Francisco I Oakland ritzg'ld.r.

Despite the fact that there were only two classes on the card, the third day of the Grand Circuit at Charter Oak Park developed the finest racing and the most exciting finishes thus far. The Capital City stake for 2:08 trot ters went to Newzell, but it required six heats. Andrews won easily with Newzell In the first two heats, but tired in the third, and AtlanticsEmpress came first under the wire. In the fourth Dicker- man s horse, in a driving nnisn, tailed by a head to beat out Oakdale. Atlantic Empress took the fifth and Newzell took the lead in the sixth and won easily when Atlantic Empress broke in the stretch. Oakdale was distanced, Newzell winning first and third money.

(SpeclaL) Almost any ball club In the National League should kick Itself after this race is completed that Is, every one except the winner, because any team that had stepped out and shown a con sistent pace for a month or six weeks would have had a grand chance to cut up the world's series money. It has been the rockiest race that I have gone through since I entered the National League, 14 years ago. Only one team has developed any steady, consistent game, and that one is the Braves, but they handicapped them selves so badly by the poor showing the first part of the season that they had to expend all their energy In catch Ing up Instead of obtaining a lead. It is my honest belief that if the Boston team had gotten a fair start, the club would be out in front so far now that it could not be seen with a long-range spyglass, except, possibly, for one thing. That exception Is that for the last four years every time that the Giants have been pressed they have rallied. Up to the time the Eastern teams started west, the Braves had been trav eling at a much faster clip than we had for two months. Then they pulled up on even terms with the Giants. Many followers of the game expected to see them draw away, but they began to show signs of slowing up that we had all expected for so long, while the Giants once more fought off the team pressing us. If the Boston team had gotten a better start and had pushed us earlier in the race, would the Giants have rallied and fought It off? Victorious Lineup Telling. When things looked darkest, Mc Graw switched ba:k to the lineup that had brought him three pennants, and it changed the whole spirit of the team. "Now we are going," said one player to his nearest worker, as the club with set teeth went to work. I believe that the Giants are going to take the flag now, but we ought to be far ahead if we had played any kind of ball. Many fans wonder why we rallied with the old lineup. Murray, Grant and Snodgrass had been resting up all year, and when they went into the game, they put fresh life into the club and new spirit. The Boston club came too soon with its spurt to go through, as I figure it. If you will look back over the scores of the Braves, you will notice that they have been winning their games by close scores, and that they were never getting out in front early in the battle and making a lot of runs so that Stalllngs had a chance to take out one of his three pitchers that he was working so ardu ously and give him a much-needed rest. Strain Affects Players. The strain under which the team has been working has also showed in some of the players misjudging flies and making other mistakes that would not occur when so much was at stake. I'd like to make a bet that the Boston players have not done much sleeping at night since they got up near the top because they have been figuring and playing battles over after going to bed and have been thinking about winning that pennant. Now the Giants come along with some fresh life and confidence In the old lineup backed up by the experience of three successful campaigns. A lot of baseball men are figuring the St. Louis Cardinals as strong con tenders, and it is a good ball club with a rattling pitching staff, but they are facing a handicap in being forced to make their final fight on the road, while both the Braves and the Giants are playing out their schedules at home. Then, the Cardinals got some tough luck when the Eastern teams were in the West last week. Games with both the Giants and Braves were postponed on account of rain when the New York and Boston pitchers were badly fagged, and Hugglns had enough steady workers to be strong In the box. Those rainy days hurt the Cardinals' chances. The rain in St. Louis and Chi cago helped the Giants, for McGraw had an opportunity to rest his pitchers and carry us through a critical spot in the race. If we had been rorced to play all the games scheduled for St. Louis, we would have landed in Chicago with a badly worked-out pitching staff, while the Cardinals would have had a fine chance to climb then by beating Boston. Lately, we have gotten the breaks In the luck, and I believe this Is a good omen. The cardinals lost a fine opportunity by the rain. The partisan crowds and climate make St. Louis a tough town for a visitor. Fines Better Than Firing. McGraw is wondering what kept Maranville, Evers, Zimmerman and Schmidt from being suspended after their mixup in Chicago. He is glad that they were only fined, so that neither one of the clubs would have a good excuse If the flag was lost. But Mc Graw was suspended for five days for an argument with an umpire at the Polo grounds, and the team lost his advice and leadership at a very critical spot in the race. However, President Tener showed great judgment in not breaking up the contending teams in. the last weeks of the battle. With Evers, Schmidt and Maranville out of the Boston lineup, the club would have been torn to pieces, and I believe the Braves are hanging on by a fine thread now. It is my opin ion, from what I know of previous races, that two or three defeats in a row will crack the Braves, and that they will drop back fast then. The club has been winning games on pep and nerve, and some setbacks are hard to stand after the long fight the team has made without any fresh material ex cept Moran and Smith.

Princeton golfers won the team cham pionship of the Intercollegiate Golf As sociation on the Garden City Club's links today, defeating Harvard's team of six men by a total score of S points to 4 in four-ball and single matches. Nineteen team championships have been decided since the collegiate organiza tion was formed and this is the first time Princeton has taken the honor. Yale won it 12 times and Harvard six, while Princeton was the runner up on six occasions. Plenty of Talent Said to Be Avail able to Fill Vacancies and Others May Be Supplanted. NIMROD-ON-THE-M'KENZIE, Sept. 9. (Special.) Four mile "hikes," finished off with four-mile cross-country runs, feature almost dally the pro gramme at Camp Oregon. With the graduation of Bradshaw, Jones, Hall, Annuson, Grout and Fen- ton, Oregon lost six men who had con tributed liberally to every victory. It is this puncture In the lemon-yellow team that has to be patched, and al though the new material is showing to advantage, the men are diamonds in the rough yet. last season Beckett showed con siderable punting ability, even when handicapped by lame ankles. Unless a recruit capable of filling Fenton's shoes shows up, the "dope" favors the big end as Oregon's next kicker. Huntington, of The Dalles, will reg ister soon. He is a halfback and his credentials say he is a wonder. Dudley, the scrappy second team end and tackle, writes that he Is to be on hand when the roll is called in Eugene. "Dud" is one of Borleske's Lincoln High School products and undoubtedly will make old and new candidates hustle for a regular berth. "Nance Cornell Is optimistic. "This Is my seventh year of football," he said, "and beyond a doubt I am In the best shape that any early season has before recorded." A temporary varsity team will be picked upon Bezdek's arrival, and stiff signal practice undergone. To date, no sickness has been re ported among the men. NATIONAL LEAGUE. Pittsburg 5, Chicago 1.

In the fifth inning Corrlden's wild throw over the plate with the bases full netted three runs for Pittsburg and placed Kelly on third. He scored on a single by Vlox.

BOSTON, Sept. 9. Boston increased its lead in the National League pen nant race today by breaking even in a double-header with Philadelphia. while New Tork was losing. The sec ond game, which Boston won, 7 to 0 after losing the first, 10 to 3, was marked by a no-hit-no-run pitching performance by one of the recruit pitchers, Davis, formerly of the New York Americans. He was wild at times, filling the bases in the fifth with none out, but he recovered control and re tired the side without a run. Umpire Quigley was knocked uncon scious in the second inning of the sec ond game when he was hit in the throat in a foul tip. He was carried from the field and was under treat ment for half an hour, but gamely re sumed his duties in the fourth inning, with an ice pack about his throat. The scores : First game R.H.B.

Sunshine prevailed during the after noon workout Falling on the ball was added to the curriculum. Anothe long run along the water's edge fin lshed the day's work.
