Major Leaguers Get Together Before Set Time in Effort to Outwit Feds. PORTLAND MAN DRAWN W. W. McCredie Admits Some Kind of Subterfuge Has Been Adopted. Dave Bancroft Is Player Likely to Be Taken. BT ROSCOE FAWCETT. Announcement from Denver of the drafting of Snortstop Coffey, of the Grizzlies, has revealed a coup by the major leagues to "rause" the Federals. And It's a clever one, you'll have to admit Instead of waiting for the drawings September 15, when the major drafting period la supposed to begin, the big leaguers evidently have got together in secret parley and already nave con ducted their little pet poker game. Else how could Coffey be "drafted" two days before the drafting season? W. W. McCredie, Portland mogul, admitted yesterday that some such subterfuge had been resorted to by the majors. "I know It to be a fact because I have a telegram from a certain club notifying me that It had won In the draw for the privilege of drafting a player from Portland," said Magnate McCredie. "I am not at liberty to name the team, as the telegram came to me in confidence. "The majors are not drafting this year according to their former system. They are putting it up to the minors to sign the player in mind, and if he refuses to sign then they switch off onto the next best prospect on the club. "I have received instructions to sign a certain Portland player for this big league team for 1915 at a certain fig ure. If he refuses to do so, when the team comes home tomorrow, I will have to report back, and then I sup pose they will be after the next best man. "You see, by tying up their drafts to contracts before announcing them, the majors are not taking any chances whatsover on possible filibustering by tti" Federals." The Denver draft presumably was given out after Coffey had signed his contract and was a major league sine cure. While the National Commission has (tone out of its customary paths to outwit the Federals in the scramble after players, the AA league clubs have been left to shift for themselves. Thee AA league drafting does not begin until Sepetmber 22, two days after the expiration of the usual major league draft season. Secrecy is not so paramount and all Important in the A A drafts, however, for the reason that anything that the majors leave usually isn't of major league caliber. "I have about made up my mind to lay off the drafts entirely" confided President McCredie, yesterday. "The minors have no protection at all. If we draft a man, we pay the money and then have to take chances of the player junmplng to the outlaws." While the Portland Coast League draft situation Is about as dark and murky as a photographer's developing room, there is little doubt but that Dave' Bancroft Is the athlete sought by the majors. Dave has received two Federal league offers, but will not accept if drafted at a satisfactory salary. "I prefer to continue In organized ball." said Dave before the Beavers left on their two weeks' trip South. "Be cause of this, I hope I shall be sold or drafted. If not I may jump." Apparently Babe Borton, Venice first sacker. is due for Fielder Jones' 6t Louis Federals next season, thus marking the season's Initial forage Into the Pacific Coast League by the Federals. Borton denies that he has signed with Jones, but his wife tipped the deal at St. Louis, Mo., the other day after receiving a letter from friend husband. Anyway, nothing except a denial could be expected from Borton, for he is still drawing pay from Hap Hogan. About $500 in paycheck mlglt sud denly cease perambulating Into the Borton family coffers were Babe known to be an out and out deserter. Last year the Federals took Krapp, Berry. Chadbourne, Goodwin, Krueger and Kenworthy from the Coast and at least 20 men have been approached by the "desperados" already this Fall. NATIONAL LEAGUE. Boston 4, Brooklyn 3. BOSTON, Sept. 14.

MORE RECRUITS SOUGHT Schedule Indicates Hard Struggle Is Ahead Coach and Assistants Have Three Teams In Ac tion In Afternoon. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Or., Sept 14. (Special.) Thirty-five candidates turned out for practice this afternoon when the 1914 football sea son at the university was ushered In. The Oregon 'varsity has launched itself into the stormiest season of years. All teams m the Northwest conference, the Multnomah Club, Willamette Uni versity and probably the University of Southern California are to be met This fact coupled with the scarcity of line material, means a hard fight ahead. , Captain Parsons left for Portland this morning; reinforcements are abso lutely necessary and the "scrappy leader has gone to get them. The names of the probable recruits have been withheld, both captain and coach considering lt an unwise policy to an nounce them until the athletes have registered in college and are out in suits. It is the common belief, how ever, that the boys in question are former stars of the Portland Inter scholastic League. Three Teams In Action. Signal drill, falling on the ball, punting and passing comprised the work of the afternoon. Coach Bezdek had three teams in action. He was aided by Assistant Coaches Hayward, Dallenbach and Mitchell. Mr. Mitchell is a professor of geoology at the uni versity and a star of the lemon-yellow teams of a few years ago. He will have charge of the end aspirants. Of the 35 men who turned out at , . on f-aohmon Amnner them are such men as Philbln, Monteith, Snyder, Huntington, jdick weison, mui j i, rtawioi. urVi n will pivfi veter ans and last season's second string candidates a gooo go tor men An addition to the kicking corpB was "Swede" Nelson, who played fullback on the Washington High School team, Portland, and who was selected as an all-star on the visionary eleven of that Fall. Nelson Holds 880-Yard Record Nelson, in addition to being a punter, is an accurate place-kicker. He did not report for football a year ago, be cause Hayward wanted to save him for the track team. Nelson holds the con ference record for the 880-yard run. Only three wearers of the football monogram were present at the initial practice, Cornell. Malarkey and Weist. These men were stationed at their old positions, quarter, half and end. Bry ant Beckett and Cook are expected on any train. Captain Parsons will join the squad Wednesday or Thursday. Srimmage is due Saturday and it is likely that the "Frosh" teamwill give battle to the temporary 'varsity. "Things look bad; we have a hard season ahead of us," said the head coach. ROlDOPlli SURE D. A. DOWNEY IN PORTLAND AR RANGING WITH TALENT. Bud Anderson Regarded as Probabil ity and All Events Will Be Strictly Professional Boxing will be a feature at the Pendleton Roundup? after ail. D. A. Downey, a Pendleton business man, was in Portland yesterday lining up some performers for a three nights' show in the Oregon Theater at Pendle ton. The dates will be September 24, 25 and 26. Bud Anderson had Downey in tow yesterday and may himself appear in an exhibition each night All the bouts will be professional, thus differing from the meet at Walla Walla's Frontier days. The Walla Walla events will be slmon pure amateur and nearly all the local officials of the Amateur Athletic Union will be in Walla Walla for the occasion. Among those going are: T. Morris Dunne, Edgar Frank and George Bertz, the last mentioned being official statistician, who pre sumably will look the boys' figures over. Likewise George will be on his honeymoon. L. A, Spangler will be In the party, which leaves Portland Wednesday aboard a special Pullman. Asked point blank how much his brief experience in the boxing game had netted him financially, Bud An derson estimated that he had salted away approximately $10,000. "Was it worth the energy expended?" Bud was asked. "I think so," replied the Vancouver erstwhile lightweight hope. "Don't you?" Anderson looks strong and hale again after his recent illness. He has just returned to his native haunts from a visit to the hop fields in his buzz wagon. Details of Danny O'Brien's summary defeat by Charlie White in Denver recently have been received in Port land. It was a left hook to the jaw that traveled only six inches that put the blinks on the Portland light weight At least so says Abe Pollock, who refereed the bout The end came in two minutes and 40 seconds from the starting gong, thus greatly resembling the bout O'Brien lost to Jack Britton during his cub days in California. As a boxer there isn't a shiftier, likelier lad in the entire country, but Danny doesn't appear able to stand the gaff. He was just beginning to sprout into a champion when Britton deliv ered his famous knockout and now White has again blasted Danny's hopes. O'Brien is a smart bright boy and has a host of friends in Portland. The ease with which White disposed of Danny proves that his defeat on points of Willie Ritchie was no fluke. White must have the goods in large packages Joe Mandot and Ad Wolgast will open the boxing season in Milwaukee September 18. Centralla Coach Appointed. CENTRALIA, Wash., Sept 14. (Spe cial.) Howard. Taylor, Instructor of Pacific Coast League. Del Howard, manager of the Seals, who did not gel into the game, remains at 350. Portland also leads In club batting and is drawlne away from Los Angeles in second place. The Beavers held their average of 278, while Los Angeiea fell away from 273 to 270. Oakland Is third with 261 and San Francisco last with 257. In fielding Venice advanced from 965 to 967, while San Francisco, In second place, stood still at 963 and Portland did not budge from its average of 960. Los Angeles has the two best run getters. Harl Maggart baa tallied 102 times and Wolter 100, a mark also equaled by Carlisle, of Venice. Rodgers. of Portland, continues to be by far the best base stealer, al though he has got home only times, and there is no change in the standing of the heavy hitters. CHANCE MAX STAY OCT SEASON Report Is New York Manager Will Give Up 1915 Contract. NEW YORK, Sept 14. While neither Manager Chance nor President Frank Farrell, of the New York Ameri can League baseball club, would make any statement today regarding their differences, baseball circles put much faith in a persistent rumor that Chance would remain manager for the rest of the season. Report had lt that Chance would relinquish his contract for another season, calling for a salary of $20,000, and that Farrell had guaranteed to pay Chance's salary in full for this year. Jack Dunn, manager of the Balti more Internationals, was considered the most likely choice for Chance's successor. Dunn has been here In con ference with Farrell since Saturday. Pennant Given to Vancouver. SEATTLE, Wash., Sept. 14. At a spe cial meeting tonight of the Northwest ern Baseball League this season's pen nant was formally awarded to Vancou ver and the annual meeting of the league was called for December 16. The post-season series of games will begin here tomorrow with a game be tween Seattle and Vancouver. BEAVERS HOME TODAY VENICE TO BE MET FIRST IN FINAL THREE-WEEK STAND.

Portland's Pacific Coast League cham pions return to the home lot this after noon for the final three weeks of base ball here this year. Venice will be the opposing club, and, owing to Portland's long Jump from Los Angeles, today's game will not start until 3:30 o'clock. Neither manager has announced hia battery, but Pat Eastley likely will be Walter McCredle's choice. No postponed games remain to be played this week, nor in the two fol lowing series with Mission and Los Angeles. Early in the season the Tigers were groomed on all sides as the sure pennant-winners. Even the astute Fielder Jones laid his hand upon the Tiger tail and pronounced the Hoganites unbeat able. Hap's men are still very much in the running, but they have slackened speed noticeably. This visit of the Tigers promises to ho lnne--remembered by at least one of the visitors, Frederick Harvey Harkness by name. "Speck" is to be married tomorrow to one of Portland's fairest daughters, Miss Margaret Florence Hackett, daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. M. A. Hackett and hence will not be seen in this series. The two hearts will be made to beat as one at the First Unitarian Church. The wedding will be the result of a three years' diamond romance, that had its inception even before "Speck" was sent Eastward to the Cleveland Ameri cans. Mr. and Mrs. Harkness will spend a brief honeymoon in California, and the popular Frederick will rejoin the Haps In San Francisco next Tuesday.

Satur day practices have been discarded and Sundaj- is tne oniy avauame uayuB"i time in which the men can come out. Multnomah will have no practice games this year and the first of any kind will be October 10, with Dr. Stewart's crowd from the Oregon Agri cultural College. Sunday's practice of the team brought out 14 men, double the num ber of the Sunday previous. Captain Convill had them on the jump with for mation play and work with signals. Clayton Patterson, remembered from the interscholastic football days of sev eral years ago, worked as quarterback and undoubtedly will be seen in many of the games at that post. The additions to the squad were Yost and Shadd. two husky linemen of local repute. Peter Rodes now is on the way from Kentucky and will be here within a week to take up the post of quarter back. Bailey also has written from Eastern Oregon and will be with the team before that Aggie game. After the Hunt a Main 49 GAMBRINUS AGGIES REST OVER Two Days Allowed for Recup eration of Cripples. COLE DONS SUIT AGAIN Several Battered Up From Hard Practice but Football Condition Is Satisfactory to Dr. Stewart for Early Season Trim. ncirnnv A at? TfTTT.TrTRAL COLLEGE, Training Camp, Newport Beach, Or., Sept. 14. (Special.) Alter two uaya lull in training activities at the Aggie quarters Saturday and Sunday Dr. Stewart sent his prospects through two strenuous sessions today. Some fast scrimmages, which gave the coaches further dope on the ability of the new men to stand up under fire, punting, blocking and running made up the day's programme. The week-end rest was necessitated by the almost disastrous results of the scrimmagea Friday. Cole's broken nose kept him out of a suit tor two days, although he was out again today. Dr. Stewart believes that this lad, who, by the way. Is one of the most promising line candidates in the squad, will be in shape for further scrimmage work by the last of this week. Cole, who strips at better than 180 pounds, has shown unexpected speed and at present he is perhaps the leading candidate for Chrisman's tackle position. Selph, the Southern California freshman, will have to speed up his game to nose out Cole. Several Are Bruised. Watkins, of Centralis, was out of the fray for a time with a bad "Charlie horse" in his leg, and Alworth and Allen have been troubled by injured sides. "Dad" King's bad knee Is still keeping him out of a suit. Aside from a few further fruises the men are in a condition satisfactory to their train ers. Miller, a young giant who was at camp during the first week, has de cided to limit himself to other forms of athletics, and has left the squad. He is a basketball center and a weight man of class. Williams, a Newberg contribution to the squad, has returned home until the last of the week. The signal practice which has been given the boys thus far has been for the purpose of showing the new men how Stewart'o direct pass formation works, rather than to teach the men any plays. Veteran line men have worked in the back field for demon stration purposes. The two back field quartets have been composed during most of the time, however, of Abra ham, Hoerline, Allen and Watson, full backs, and Newman, Groce, Luta and Miller, halfbacks. Anderson and Dewey have been playing centers on the two temporary teams.
