The Oakland ball club is doing its share to represent the City of Promise. All during the preliminary season it has been promising to score a few runs one of these days, but as yet the pledge has not been fulfilled. The Oaks went into the ninth innin? this morning w ithout scoring a single tally off Reb Kussell. and then they required $i0, 000 worth of assistance to cross the pan. LCddie Collins pulled a woeful boot that prevented another shutout, which would have been the fourth in succession. As it was, the "White Sox won handily, 4 to J. The Oaks did not loom up any better than in previous pamoy. Howard Mun dorff was in right Held and came through with three hits, one of them a double Alt-ock also lent a hand with si double and single, but otherwise the boys played in consistent hitless form. Outside of Mundy and Scott only two other players hit safely. With seven lilts they threatened the plate only on rare occasions. On the other band, the Sox gave Harry Abies a merry time during the tive-inning stay on the mound. The score: R. H. E.1 R. H. E. Chicago... 4 10 2pakland 17 2 Batteries Russell and Mayer; Klaw Jtter.

The single umpire system is apparently doomed, so far as the Pacific Coast Ieague is concerned. Henry Berry, owner of the Seals, left tonight for Los Angeles with the avowed intention of conferring on the subject with Tom Darmody and Kd ilaier. of the Los Angeles and Venice club. Salt Lake will presumbaly fall in line, since Cliff BlankensMp will recommend such a step to his team owners. Judge MeCredie. of Portland, lias been asked to state his opinion and it is likely a telegraphic vote will be taken before the week is out. "I was responsible for starting the -double umpire system." said Berry to night, "and I have thought all along we would have to return to that sys tem. Tom rarmody told me several weeks ago he preferred two umpires : on the field and I see by the papers that Maier agrees with him. What I would like Is a unanimous vote from all the clubs concerned. "In th meantime President Baum expects to hear from Portland and he will also communicate with Oakland and Salt Lake. I expect we will ask xne presiueni or xne league to request a telegraphic vote.

Cal March 21. (Spe cial.) Without the least warning the White Sox Goofs jumped on Slim Love in the first inning of today's game and, ided by two large. Juicy errors and a few more that the score does not show, hammered out four hits and seven runs. nd put the game safely away for- evermore. After this they kept on pegging, one or two hits a frame, and hased in four more men, making toe final score 11 to 8. Faber worked for the whole game for the Goofs and did ot have to exert himself. The Angels got five hits off him in the seventh and ran in four scores, much to the delight of the crowd, who evidently thought the game might be batted out. But Fabcr suddenly woke p and the scoring stopped right there. Ryan only allowed threa hits in the four frames he worked and showed he was in rare form. Hogan divided his men Into two teams, one .playing the home team at naheim. the other taking on the San Pedro nine at the Harbor.

Mc Malion and Harry Iiddas Do Fancy Stunts From Morrison Bridge; Water Found Chilly. . Four Portland youths entertained passersby on the west approach of the Morrison-street bridge yesterday after noon by diving and Jumping off the bridge. Just to show that Spring has come." Louis J. Balbaeh, of the Mult nomah Club; Earl Smead, of the Port land Swimming Association; Victor Pat rick McMahon. of the Multnomah Club, and Harry Eddas formed the quartet which braved the cool watersv of the Willamette. The ceremonies started a little after 2:30 o clock and lasted until after 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Louis J. Balbaeh startled everyone by making the trip to the railing on the south side of the west approach of the Morrison-street bridge on three occasions, first doing a back Jackknife, a front Jackknife and ending up with a one-and-a-half. Harry Eddas Jumped from the bridge and, on his flight to the water, did a "quarter gaynor." All the boys swam around for several minutes among the canoes which lined the shore and while the water was rather chilly, yet all ex pressed a desire to go back in again after once getting out in the air. The same squad reinforced by several more are planning on swimming from the Favorite Boathouse canoe raft to the draw rest of the Morrison bridge and from there dive off several times before coming back to shore. The boys dressed in a warm room and everything was done to make them feel comfortable after their , plunge yesterday. Recruit Pitcher Tosses Game Away Before Relief Can Be Sent In, All-Stars Being Picked - to Meet Chicago Giants. With opening day set for next Sun day, the semi-proressional baseball bugs are beginning to take a real, live interest in the affairs of the Portland City league. Yesterday was a busy afternoon for all four clubs. It was also a disas trous one for the Piedmont Maroons. The Piedmont cracks attempted to try out some material against the St. Johns Dentists and before Southpaw Moeller could warm up and relieve Lake in the second Inning the game was gone. Score: St. Johns, 8; Piedmont Ma roons, 6. Lake allowed seven of the eight tal lies in his one and a fraction frames. Whetstone twirled for the victors. Bar tholomey enlivened the day by banging a homer over the Peninsula Park crowd. Three thousand fans witnessed the game. After the contests Manager George Grayson said that Moeller and Bar tholemy would be the battery for the City League All-Stars when they buck up against the Chicago Colored Giants here the first week in April. Grayson and Clyde Rupert have charge of se lecting the all-star aggregation to -go against the Giants and they are hav ing a hard time making their selec tions. "The colored team is one of the best in the country," said Grayson. "Ru pert and 1 are keeping a careful watch on various members of the different teams in the league." Rupert and his West Portland squad played a practice same on the Colum bia University diamond. The other two clubs in the league were also out for practice. The East Portland Red men staged a game between the regu lars and rookies at East Twelfth and Davis, while the Sellwoods mixed with another team on the Sellwood battle ments. t These were the last practice games of the season. Next Sunday the four teams will stage a .oouble-header at Recreation Park and officially usher in the 1914 City League season. The West Portland Monarchs and Piedmont Maroons will clash and the East Port land Redmen and the Sellwood Weonas. A parade will take place on the down town streets prior ito- the opening games. of B.

Jack Randall's JlcMinnville Tigers took two practice games from the Ore gon Agricultural College baseball squad Friday and Saturday at Cor vallis. The Friday affair was won 9 to 6 and the last match was a 6-to-4 victory. "We had a mighty hard time with the collegians," said Manager Randall last night, "and Nick Williams is in line to have a crackerjack nine when they get to working good. " Moreland and Webb pitched for us in the first game, opposed by Bickey Williams and Culver, while Foster did all the twirl ing yesterday, with Courtney and Krietz on the receiving end for the winners. "Krietz formerly was with the Chi cago White Sox. and later with the Oakland Pacific Coasters, and at pres ent is dickering with several North western League teams. From the way he went in the two games Just played he is in store for a great season this year." Manager Randall received a letter from Rudly Kallio, who is at Waco, Tex., in which the former Randall all star twlrler said he worked against the New York Giants. Art Korea, ex Beaver third baseman, was leadoff man for the National Leaguers and banged dut a two-bagger the first time up. Kallio pitched five Innings and allowed but six hits.

CLUB TO CELEBRATE. AT RIN'K "Multnomah Xight" at Ice Hippo drome Promises Gala Affair. "Multnomah night" at the Portland Ice Hippodrome, scheduled for tonight, promises to be a gala affair, according to the reports of Manager Kearns, who has been instrumental in securing sev eral surprises for the evening's enter tainment. Arrangements have been made by Manager - Muldoon, of the Portland Uncle Sams, to announce the returns of the Vancouver-Ottawa ice hockey game by periods. Fancy skating and races will be on the programme for the winged "M" night, and, in all probability, the hockey players of the club will be on hand to furnish a part of the fun. Manager Kearns has scheduled the first event for 9 o'clock, and the programme will last until 9:30 o'clock. Because this is Alultnomah Club night does not mean that the Portland Ice Hippodrome will not be open for ice skating to the general public. While the out-of-doors temperature in Portland was 9 degrees at the high est yesterday, the Portland Ice Hippo drome was the coolest place in town. All day ice skaters found the plant a place of refuge from the first real signs of Summer. J. George Keller, secretary and treas urer of the institution, held the weekly races, and the largest turnout of the season was on hand to witness them. Whether or not the races will be con tinued until May 15, the last day of the ice-skating season, will be decided on this week. MORMOXS LOSE IX 9TH IXXIXG Whole Sale Lake Team Blows Up at Once When Playing Indianapolis. SAN JOSE, Cal., March 21. (Spe cial.) Indianapolis came through with a ninth-inning rally today and defeated the Salt Lake Coast Leaguers by a 6-to-2 score. Three singles, two errors by Tennant and a bobble by Gregory let the American Association team score five runs. Gregory pitched magnificent ball up to that inning. Salt Lake hit the ball hard, but coufd not get men around the bases in pro portion to their hitting on account of the fine fielding of the Indians. Riley's throw to the plate from left field was one of the features. Hallinan made a great stop with one hand in the sixth inning, when he robbed Riley of a hit. He cut off Ro maine at second with a quick throw, but Riley beat the relay to first. Score: R. H.E.I R.H. E.

"Johnson is a native of Galveston, Texas, the home of the most supersti tious negroes on earth. The black man has no particular form of , re ligion, but he believes in the old voo doo rites and the powers for good or bad contained in the warnings dreams. ' "The memory of Johnson's father is one of the things that is sacred Johnson. In his youth the elder John son was something of a spiritualist. Johnson came to Havana fully deter mined to sail the next day for Tampico, where Curley ' had men waiting escort him to Juarez. He stopped off for one night and In the middle of th night the form of his dead father ap peared over his bed and gave the sol emn warning that the trip to Mexico would mean only failure, capture and disaster. " "That settled the fate of the Juarez fight" Herman (Red) Held, an umpire i the Coast League until the economy wave hit the circuit, is bald-headed and is not touchy about it. In fact, h tells this one . on himself : Held was umpiring, with George Hildebrand, th games played by the all-star tourists in San Francisco last Fall. rlat In hand he approached the stands to in troduce the batteries and some of the famous players. Ira Thomas, in charge of the Ail-Americans, stood beside him waiting to be introduced, and some fan yelled: "w'e know you, Thomas; how do you like our climate?" Thomas knew he had to boost that climate to get in good and he replied: "Fine; you grow everything out here but hair. "Don't judge all of us by an umpire' skull," came back from the fan. . To Barnes, late of the Portland Coast League camp, belongs the honor of discovering the latest new freak pitch lng ball. It is known as the Jitney ball, which means that it runs hog wild about nine-tenths of the time. Pity 'tis that Portland hockey en thusiasts will not get an opportunity to size up the Ottawa champions of th National Hockey Association on their trio to Vancouver this week. A visit here would do much to give the ice sport a stronger hold than ever for 1916. It would hardly be practical to keep the Portland players over an extra fortnight for one game or two. but whv not an exhibition or perhap one of the world's series games in this city? SIX GOOD BOUTS OX CARD Imperial Club Smoker Promises to Be Lively Ring Affair. What has all the appearance of being the best amateur boxing carj ever shown in Portland has been arranged by the Imperial Amateur Club for next Friday night. The topline event will be furnished by Abe Gordon and Jimmy Howe, the Chinese boxer. Eddie Flannieran and Willie Mack, of Astoria, will be seen in th'e seml-windup and Jack Wagner ana Jack' Mclrwin, of Vancouver. Wash., will also mix.

JIMMY JOHNSTON has been tried and found wanting. The other day Rajah Bresnahan, manager of the Chi cago Cubs, announced his list of 21 regulars, and blonde-roofed Jimmy was not amongst them. Jimmy's case is an unusual one. Out here on the Coast with the Seals in 1913 Jimmy stole everything but the San Francisco fog belt. His mark of 125. or so. stolen bases likely will stand for many years. The fleet-footed outfielder batted .304 for the Seals, and he clouted .296 the year previous at Birmingham in the Southern League, which would seem to stamp him as a pretty fair bludgeon wielder. But somehow or other James always peters out when he lands in the big show. He has had opportunities galore, and always it has been the same old story. Last year he batted .228 and stole three bases in 50 games for Chicago. Johnston is now on the market, and it would not surprise us to find him back in the Coast League, although the teams are farly well fortified for the 1915 race. Oakland admits a yearn ing to corner the blonde. Jawn R. Robinson, who in days agone achieved considerable fame as chief megaphone for Battling Nelson, is in Havana boosting the Johnson Wlllard fistic possibility of the future. And Jawn's active imagination is still in the family working overtime. His latest purports to give the inside story on why. Johnson balked on the Team Plans for Trip to Coast for Latter Part of Season. CALDWELL Idaho, March 21. (Spe cial.) Baseball prospects at the Col lege of Idaho this year point to a highly successful season. Six of last year's men are in suits again this year. Alexander and Webb, probably the best school battery in the state, are show ing up better than ever before. For the past three weeks an average of 14 men have been out every afternoon warm ing up, running and base-sliding. The first game of the season will be played about April 1. Two games will be plaved at Caldwell - with the Albion State Normal team. Several games will be played on a trip East. For the lat ter part of May Manager Paine is ar ranging a trip West to meet some of the schools on the Coast.

Dick made a big name for h'imself as a track athlete when he at tended the Washington High School here and worked under Coach Veatch.
