It is chiefly thanks to Gus Fisher, mot omitting, of course, a. certain amount of praise for Dutch Klawitter, who pitched splendid baseball for eight innings, that Oakland won its third . straight against the Beavers today, the ; final score being 5 to 2. Gus dropped a throw from Bates in ' the second inning that let in two tal lies and paved the way for a third; ; while later in the session Fisher con tributed a wild throw to second, en deavoring to shut off Marcan from , , a steal, and the Oakland baseman ; ' promptly registered the last of the five ; , runs. It was partially the fault of ! ; Keefe, who essayed the pitching; task " ' and missed fire. In that first Oakland ' rally, Keefe, while he allowed but a ; single swat, hit two of the opposing stickers. The. fifth, when he allowed , three hits, two of them nice drives, j was his downfall. Harry Krause south pawed the ball over for the last three j innings of action and got away with j ; just one blow against his delivery. Klawitter Strong I'ntll C-la.e. ' ' The Beavers could not do much with j Klawitter until just at the finish, j The Oaks did most of their tallying ; In the second. Jimmy Johnston was ; pinked by Keefe and legged it for third ; when Ness poled out a center field sin f , gle. Elliott flied to short left and when UndBay wis slammed on the leg with a Pitched boll the bases were flush. Louis Litschi rapped a grounder at Bates, ,-who returned sharply to the plate, j Fisher caught the pill, but did not J hold fast, and as the ball rolled away I not Johnson alone, but Ness as well, ; came around in safety. The Beavers ; were plainly up in the air. Lindsay, '. on third, started for home as Litschl 1 headed for second, and though Litschl ! linally was downed, Lindsay tallied. '. With that much lead the Oaks had to be contented until the fifth, a chap ' ter In which the hammering of Keefe y had much to do with results. Oak Stage Swatfeat. Mada, replacing Lindsay, crippled ; from the pitched ball that had found ' him a mark, 'sent a pop fly into the ; air. Stumpf started for the ball but backed away and Keefe, who by rights should have had it, saw the sphere drop ; within his reach. It was the scratch : lest sort of a bit. ; Litschl put down a sacrifice. Klaw itter did no good, as he could not get the ball beyond the infield, and It took . Marcan's center field hit to send Man da , ior Then Marcan stole, took third on a ! bad throw by Fisher and Anally was ! driven home by Mundorft's safe one. A shutout for Klawitter was avoided by splendid Portland hitting in the - ninth. Derrick was fanned but Speas : drove into left for two bases. Bates singled to right and Lober. with a two sacker to center, scored Speas. Doane's infield out saw Bates make the circuit, and Fisher retired the side when he hit to Manda.

PERNOLL SEEMS THROUGH Grants Pass Pitcher Said to Be Tagged for Release More Than 20 Players in League Already ITeel Economy Wave. BT ROSCOB PAWCBTT. Rod Murphy is an ambitious young athlete and there'll be no holding out on the part of the third Backer turned over to Aberdeen by Walt McCredie a few days ago. Murphy arrived in Port land yesterday from San Francisco completing a circuitous trip around by Ogden because of the flood and. while he had no official notice of his sentence to the Northwestern League, Rod seemed agreeable to the switch. Judge W. W. McCredie was out of the city on a visit to Spokane, so his youthful speed merchant prodigy camped at the Ramapo Hotel with his wife, awaiting the boss return. "I did not know I was to be sent to Aberdeen." said Murphy, "until my wife informed me she had read it in the newspapers. I guess somebody had to go. however. with Rodgers coming back to the club, and perhaps it's just as well for me to go to Aberdeen and get in the game every day as to sit on the bench for the Beavers. Queried about the new Portland ath letes, Hillyard. Bates and Reed, Mur phy spoke enthusiastically. Bates and 1 have been on three dif ferent teams together," he explained. 'I was with him first in the Virginia League, in 1912. I was playing short for Petersburg and he was on third for Newport News. We both hit .291. Later we were in the Tri-State together. Ac cording to the Sporting News he was released by Cleveland because his legs were bad, but this was wrong. He looks as spry as ever to me. I think he will hit between .260 and .300 in this league, and I class him as the best third sacker in the league, bar none. He got a raw deal from Cleveland. Reed is a little fellow, not any taller than Bobby Davis and no hea.v1er' He is fast, and although I didn't have a chance to size him up at the bat. he hit well In batting practice. Hillyard's arm is lame, and the writers are criticising him on that score. But nobody can pick flaws in bis fielding. I never saw prettier outfielder. Harry Wolver ton says he can murder a high ball, but is weak on low curves. I don t know about that." Apparently Hub Pernoll's days with the San Francisco Seals are numbered. Hub seems to have all his old stuff ex cept the cross fire, and it sails up like an old washerwoman s flatiron. Two years ago the Oaks "canned" the Grass Pants portsider and then he came back and won eight straight for the Seals. Maybe Hub will do the same for some other club. More than 20 Coast League ballplay ers have walked the plank as the re sult of hard times. Since the first faint whispers anent the 18-man rule the following athletes have been jostled off the various Coast payrolls: Pitchers, Arellanes, Benham, Callahan, Eastley, Halla, Malarkey. Marti noni, Barham, Horstman, Rieger and West; catchers. Clarke, Arbogast and Byler; infielders, Charles, Guest, Hosp, Alcock, Coltrin, Rod Murphy, Herb Murphy and out fielders ICircher and Meusel. e Portland fans are wondering what has become of our old home talent star. Vean Gregg. Vean hasn't figured in a box score all Spring, whereas two years ago at this time there wasn't enough head type in the shop to adver tise his left flipper. Truth is, Vean's arm is almost decadent. Cleveland had the inside dope on this when it traded him to Boston a year ago. Gregg and Joe Wood are in the care of a Boston specialist, and he has promised to have both of them in pitching shape before long. The Boston club Just now seems to be a trifle, weak in the box, and if either one of the duo comes back it will put the Sox in the pennant run ning. It is a strange feature of the National pastime that some players are wonders in the minor leagues only to fizzle and fade away when they get their fling at the big show. Jimmy Johnston, of the Oaks, is one of these bloomers. Judg ing from his first few weeks Bill Rodg ers is another, and we might also men tion that ex-Northwest batting pbenom, Sheldon Lejeune. Lejeune was turned back to Sioux City by Pittsburg the other day after his 'steenth opportunity in the big league. Lejeune is a mighty swatter and a good fielder in the minors but a sick poppy blossom in the majors. There is one thing they can't take away from him, however, and that is his world's throwing record of 4 26 feet 94 Inches, made at Cincinnati about five years ago. e Rube Maxmeyer, the sylph-likecouih-paw who once cut up capers for the Portland Northwestern club, was back in the city last week trying to trade his farm for a tennis racquet, or some such utensil suitable for catching craw fish. Although in a rush Rube con sented to be interviewed, and we are certain the younger generation will ap preciate the following tips on how Maxy steals bases. This was his first topic: "The secret of stealing bases is. first of all. not to get caught off first." ex plained Rube. "I never get caught off iii-m. aay secret is to stand with one foot on the bag. which is sure to rattle the pitcher. I always wield my knife in the left hand when eating peas, so I generally aim to keep this hand close to the first baseman. It enables me to keep my face pointing toward the pitcher, which is advisable. When the pitcher begins winding up I take a lead off about 18 inches, and this puts me in position to sprint for second in case of a home run. In running bases great speed is required. When I stole thai base on July 8, 1912, In Victoria, I think it was, I was using the Howard Drew style. This consists of throwing out one leg after another In front of you as rapidly as possible. By following this cystem anybody can become a farmer within two years' time." AGGIES MEET SEATTLE TODAY Within Week Corvallis Team Will Have Won or Lost Title Chance.

Hay-ward Fean Teams la Cripple! by Bait ia Training Hard Contest With Washington Kxoccted Today. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene. Or., May 13. (Special.) A 10-mile walk enabled Coach Bill Hayward and his five athletes to reach home from San Francisco this morning. It was a dusty. tired and woebegone track team which crawled out of the sleepers at Eugene. Ten miles over a muddy California road i3 no incentive to an athlete s condi tion, and tomorrow's meet is up in the air as a result. One thing sure, every race with Seat tle sprinters will be slow. Today's rain has put the track in oozy shape, and unless a halt in the downpour occurs before morning it is doubtful whether or not the meet can be held. Huggins and Payne, winners of the mile and two-mile, respectively, at San Francisco, are being showered with con gratulations today. This pair made a great showing in California, and the men they are pitted against are among the best on the Coast. Twelve wearers of the lemon-yellow will be entered tomorrow by Hayward. The five that made the big southern trip Payne, Cook, Loucks, Nelson and Boylen are sure to participate. The remainder of the dozen will be selected from Muirhead. Boylen, Wilson, Go- reczky. Bull, - Fee, Heidenrich, Ham street, Hargreaves, Bostwick, Langly, Peacock and Bills. A pretty race will be furnished when Clyde, of Washington, and Huggins, of Oregon, leave the mark in the mile run. Clyde is the present official Northwest conference titleholder for this event, and earlier in the year Huggins bet tered the champion's time. Payne should have little trouble with his race, even if long train rides and hikes have hampered his condition to some extent. It is thought that he will be able to loaf and romp home an easy winner. , Boylen. in the 100, will-have a hard road to hoe if dope given out by the Seattle team is to be taken as authentic. They say they have a sprinter who can traverse the century in 10 flat. The quarter and 220 should go to Ore gon. The other events are open to speculation. The sentiment, however, is that Hayward's champions will have an easy time to overbalance -the score board. Bill has refused to issue any state ments concerning tomorrow's affair, as he says that he has not been home long enough to know just what he has in the shape of a track team. "Our long delay didn't do the boys that I had with me any good, either," he added. There is a big crowd of visitors tn Eugene today, and by tomorrow even ing at least 400 more are expected. The high school track teams are being quar tered in the fraternity houses, and to morrow they will work out on the varsity track. ; OAPTAIX TO PICK TRACK ME Washington Coach Unablo to Get Back to Select Contenders. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON. May 13. (Special.) On account of delays to the Washington and Oregon track squads at Red Bluff, Cal.. Coach Mar tin, of the local track team, could not get home in time to pick the additional eight men that Washington will send to Eugene to compete against the Uni versity of Oregon, and he telegraphed to Captain Clyde to pick eight men, who, in addition to the four varsity- men who competed in California, will represent Washington against the lem on-yellow. The four Washington athletes who took five points in the Coast intercol legiate meet will be left at Eugene, where they will limber up for the com petition. HANDBALL ' TITLE IS WON C. J.
