Yesterday's Kesults.
nmH nlaved. traveling day. Series
starts today. Vernon at Portland, Halt Lake
at Los Angeles, Oakland at San Francisco.
BY EOSCOE FAWCETT.
After two weeks on the road the
Portland Coast League champions
what were will be back among us this
afternoon for a six-game series with
Vernon. Next week the Beavers will
nl.iv the leaerue-leadins Seals, and then.
after a week with Oakland will .bid
aloha to Portland for the season.
Today's game will commence at 3
o'clock and if rain interferes with this
or any other game this week, a double
header will be booked for Sunday.
With the Pacilio Coast race only
nix weeks to co it looks as if San
Francisco will win the flag. Wolver
ton's team Is three and one-half games
to the good over Los Angeles. San
ITranciseo walloped the Angels five out
of eight last week, and,' as these two
teams do not meet again this Fall, the
Angels will undoubtedly find it tough
sleddinK overtaking the faeals.
Two other separate and distinct
tights are on in the league. Vernon
and Salt Lake are putting up a superb
battle for third position. Salt Lake
had the call for a few games last
week, but an even break on the series
with Doc White's bunch put them back
Into the second division Sunday after
noon.
The other battle is for the cellar with
the Portlands and the Oaks as prin
cipals. Portland seemed to have the
cdse on Rowdy Elliott's much villified
agKregation until the Mackmen cracked
under the strain Sunday. Their loss of
a double-header to the Oaks brought
the latter to within the thickness of
a dime of fifth position.
All the champion Macks McCredie,
McGraw and McGillicuddy are bowing
to the yoke of humility this year. Mc
Credie is within one step of the
basement, while McGraw's champion
Kew York club and Connie Mack's
champion Philadelphias are already
snugly quartered at the lower ex
tremity of the coal chute.
.
Baseball this week will be enlivened
to some extent by the opening of the
major league draft season tomorrow.
It will cost the majors 2o00 for every
player drafted from the AA leagues,
and, as only one man can be taken from
each of the big -minor clubs this being
decided by lottery most or the draft
ing naturally will be done from the
smaller minors the Class A's, B's, and
C's.
As most of the Coast League stars
this year are out under options from
big league teams, our guess is that one
or two of the clubs may not be troubled
at all by the dratt.
It seems certain that Portland will
lose either Bates or Coveleskie. Bates
lias begun swatting the horsehide
again and is up around the .311 mark.
Undoubtedly this tall, spindly-shaped
youngster is one of the most promising
Jnneluers the Coast has seen in years.
Heilmann. of the Seals, is already
under option to Detrait, so it needn't
surprise anybody if the Seals are
missed by the draft. Oakland has no
body of particular promise, with Ness
and Johnston disposed of, and the Salt
Lake Bees are in the same fix unless
oine club needs a lirst sacker badly
find decides to pluck Bunny Brief back
to the majors. Brief tried out early
in the year with the Chicago Sox, but
couldn t oust tournier out of his job.
ios Angeles and Vernon have severa
promising ball players under salary
amd both likely will be hit by $2500
cnet-Ks ere another fortnight.
The opening and closing dates for
the mtnor leagues are as follows:
Class A A, September 22-27; class A(
September 30-October 5: class B Octo
ber T-12; class C, October 15-20.
That the affairs of the defunct
Aberdeen ball club of the Northwestern
league are in bad shape and-that Aber
deen can hardly hope to be on deck for
the season of 1916 are facts that have
come to light in, the trouble growing
out of the sale of Shortstop Ward
to the Portland Coast club.
Ward was sold to Portland by Man
ager jonn. s. Barnes for $500 and,
w nen rsarnes retained the money to
apply on his own back salary, the
Aberdeen directors ousted him from his
job. Said directors are now engaged in
trying to force Portland to pungle up
another $500.
Of course, they will not get it and if
Manager Barnes wants to play his
hand. Aberdeen may get stuck further.
Barnes has two years more to run on
his contract at $250 a month from Jan
uary 1 to October 1 of each year.
Barnes has sent copies of all his
contracts and correspondence to Judge
W. W. McCredie. and he seems to have
clean skirts. The Aberdeen club owes
Quite a lot of money and at one direc
tors' meeting it was proposed that the
club go into insolvency to avoid pay
ment. This Barnes foiled, as indicated
by a letter to President Bertrand. An
excerpt from his letter reads:
And if our club was willing- to consent to
tnl kind of a scheme (bankruptcy) I am
sure the directors of the league would not
tolerate it for a minute. Such a course to
my way of thinking, would terminate Aber
deen's membership in the Northwestern
League. ,
Manasrer Barnes tells of starting: the
ball club out on one road trip with
exactly $75 in the treasury. Presum
ably the Northern Pacific Railroad fur
nished the transportation because this
company is one of the chief creditors.
Barnes' salary calls for $2250 for the
nine months, but of this $1000 went
hack as his donation to the stock sub
scription. During the year Barnes sold
Milligan. for $100, Ward for $500 and
Kircher for $500. so he has cost the
Aberdeen club only $150 of treasury
funds.
Referring- to the $500 received from
the Ward sale. Barnes wrote Bertrand
under date of September 4 from Se
attle: And. under the present condition under
which the club stands, I absolutely refuse
x j rrmn 10 you or to tne club any part of
the money received by me from the sale
of Player Ward and 1 take this opportunity
to advise you that from all moneys coming
Into my hands this year as manager I will
positively neauo my salary as per my con-
1 rm-i. Aim i woia rzsnc nere that I am
liable any hour to dispose of Meikle. and
after the balance of my September salary
is pnia. I win pay our other lawful debts
at mis ena, ana, ir 1 am unable to pay evry
penny 01 tne above aebts in this way. aftr
srivlnr Aberdeen a reasonable chance" to d3
o, and fails. 1 have reason to believe that
the directors of the Jforthwestern Leasras
will take such action as the necessities
of the case demand.
On September 7 Barnes received a
telegram notifying him that his three
year contract had been abrogated.

Amateur Athletics
SEVERAL huskies have reported to
Coach StanJey Borleske for training-
with Lincoln High School
football players on Multnomah Field.
The biggest one Is "Young: Crowd"
Lippman, who tips the beam at almost
190 pounds. His only knowledge of
football was received in grammar
school, but what he lacks in experi
ence he posesses in bulk. "Freokles"
Schneiderman and Ruddy Wax, mem
bers of the championship Shattuck
Grammar school eleven, are going to
report today. Schneiderman weighs
better than 180 pounds.
Real scrimmage was held at the Co
lumbia Park grounds Sunday among
the Columbia Park Amateur Athletic
Club candidates. The first injury of
the year came to Wicomb -whose scalp
was torn. The wound was dressed
by Dr. W. O. Webster. The election
of officers for the lightweight eleven
resulted in A. E. Voigt being: chose 1
captain and. Paul Naugle, manager.
Mike Bloch was out Sunday but owing
to a sore foot he was unable to be in
a suit. "Husky" Waiste and Leo
Crowe, both members of the Mohawk
team last year, have asked to join the
Columbia Park athletes. "Husky
weighs around 200 pounds
Manager Mike DeCicco is going out
strong for the lightweight champion
ship of Portland with his South Port
land aggregation. His squad last
Sunday umbered around 30 and he is
satisfied he will have three full elevens
at the practice on the South Portland
bottoms next Sunday. Captain Porter
had charge of the workout.
Reports coming from the Oregon Ag
ricultural College training camp at
Newport showed that "Darkhorse
Rook" Newman, the former Lincoln
High school all-star plunging fullback
of the Portland Interschoiastic League,
registered the first touchdown of the
year for the varsity. He performed
this same stunt last year against the
Alumni at Corvallis.
Basketball Is coming in for a share
of the attention just now. The Port
land Newsboys are working out occas
ionally at the Neighborhood House
gymnasium. A full quintet comes out
each practice and at times enough for
a game make their appearance. Abe
Popick, captain of the newsies base
ball squad, is thinking seriously of
entering his name at a candidate for
the basketball team.
Harry M. Grayson, secretary of the
Portland City League, will call a meet
ing of the directors tomorrow night
to wind up the 1915 season. This is
the first time in the history of inde
pendent amateur and semi-profession
al baseball in Portland that a league
has gone through the entire schedule
without a bobble. The meeting will
he brought to order by President
Whitehead in his offices in the Fen
ton building at 8 o'clock.

BOSTON, Sept. 13- The league-leading
Red Sox improved their position
today by winning both games of a
double-header from Chicago, 2 to 1 and
4 to 1.
Leonard and Shore hejd the White
Sox to three hits in each game.
In the first contest Scott was hit at
critical moments. Gardner's triple and
Lewis hit scored a run for the Red
Sox in the fourth, and Barry's scratch
hit, Carrigan's' force out, on which the
former was retired. Weaver's error on
Leonard's rap, and Hoblitzel's double,
added the winning- run in the seventh.
Chicago got two of its three hits in
the eighth, when the only run was
scored.
The second game was stopped after
eight innfngs by darkness. Faber last

Boston scored three runs. Cicotte, who
succeeded him, held Boston safe until
the eighth, when a pass was developed

hits and Thomas' error on Speaker's
throw to the plate. Score:
