Vernon didn't have any more show
yesterday than a burelar's hope of
heaven. . Stanley Coveleskie reversed
Thursday's proceedings by holding the
Bengals to four hits while the Beavers
cannonaded Southpaw Roy Ititt off the
mound in seven innings. Roy was just
a natural bust with the Maekmen
doing the busting. The final score
was 7-0.
-As. if it were not enough humiliation,
to hold his opponents to four scat
tered similes, Coveleskie trundled up
to the home platter in the sixth Inning
with the bases full and calmly pro
ceeded to swat out a two-bagger, scor
ing two and starting a four-run riot.
Billy Southworth. the nifty little
horticulturist, who is just petting ac
quainted with Tortland scenery, also
starred at the bat. Southwoith ob
tained two singles and a two-bagger.
Southvrorf h'n Speed Phenomenal.
In the fifth Southworth doubled to
center field and by showing a burst
of phenomenal speed scored on Speas'
liner to left field for Portland's third
tally.
South worth's legs were moving so
fast they looked like wheel spokes.
Ordinarily there wouldn't have been, a
chance to make home safely and Harry
Krause on the coaching line tried
everything except a flying tackle to
stop the fleeing youngster. But there
was no stopping. Billy turned third
like a bumming bird arid slid into the
plate yards ahead of the ball. ,
Other nubbins of the day were a
heroic throw about 40 feet over Catcher
Metk's head by Dickey Bayless, of the
Vernons, and an amusing mistake by
Don Rader, of the same ball club.
Kader Flukrn Out In KIKhth.
Rader deliberately walked off first
base in the eighth inning, thinking
three men were out, and he was
doubled by Bates.
It was ladies' day again weather
fine and 2300 women in the stands
and the Vernon defeat evened the series
two games apiece.
Portland got the jump in the first
inning. Southworth singled over sec
ond after one out, but was caught oft
first base. Bates doubled to left. Speas
singled to the same place. scoring
Bates. It was at this juncture that
Bayless tried his wonderful heave, the
ball going over Meek's head and bring
ing up against the grandstand.
Spe Called Safe In Double.
Speas landed on third. Hitt walked
Etumpf and on a double steal, Speas
as called safe at the plate, althougj
it looked as if he was out by a foot
the left foot, we believe.
This gave the Beavers a two-run
beadstart and they were never headed.
Soulhworth's r.prlnt tally in the fifth
made it 3-0 and four more rushed
across in the sixth two of them on
Coveleskie's two-base smash against
the left field fence, and the other two
on a .hit by Southworth.
Roy Hitt's indigestion improved in
the seventh but Doc White was irking
for work and he pitched the last
stanza. The score:

Taking Hand, Is Report. ;
BY CHRISTY MATHEWSOX.
NEW TOIiK. Sept. 17. (Special.)
The Chicago White Sox pulled a "bone"
play the other day that lost them the
ball game and made them look bad, be
sides. It is also causing some discus
sion in Chicago, and there are hints
Rowland is slated to move after this
year. The mistake haij some influence
on Comiskey.
As I recall the :
play, there were men :
on first and second
and one out when
the batter struck at .
a wild pitch which
the catcher missed.
The Chicago club
was in the field -!
the time. The hit-'
tcr ran for first,

runners on the tags,

base, n nrl thrrn e .,..,..
rChicago. The Sox lost the nm. hv
that one run. It was the worst kind of
baseball, both on the part of the play
ers and umpire.
According to the rules, with men or
first and second bases, and none or one
down, the batter is out anyway, if he
fans, whether the catcher holds the
ball or not. This is to prevent a force
play on the runner at third. I don't
see how as smart a ballplayer as "Ed
die" Collins could have overlooked the
play.
Collins' Attitude Expected.
"If there are two plays every in
fielder knows," said "Johnny" Evers
to me. in discussing the White Sox
"bone," "they 'are this one they pulled
in Chicago, when the batter is out any
way if he fans, , and the one with a
runner on first when an infield ball is
hit. If you throw to first to get the
man going there, then you have to
touch the other runner coming into sec
ond, for the double. You have killed
the force play. I don't see how Col
lins could have missed that one. These
two stick out like burrs on every in
fielder's jnind."
The gossip from Chicago is that Col
lins doesn't dare to make any sug
gestions for fear he will be charged
with attempting to manage the club.
As I understand it, Eddie has tried
hard to mind his own business since
Joining the White Sox because there
was always the chance of the charge
he was trying to push Rowland out of
his position. But it looked pretty bad
for a club to be beaten on a play like
tnat.
It is practically certain Rowland
won't be the manager of the White Sox
next season". He has not shown he
knew enough about baseball. Comiskey
bought him, a great ' machine, and he
has not been able to drive it. I don't
doubt he has had his troubles. Who
will succeed Rowland is not decided as
far as I know. Jt may be Eddie Col
lins, but I doubt it. And I don't think
he could make good while still play
ing the game.
Play-Inn Managers: Exit Foreseen.
"Tfce day of the playing manager is
about over," declared Evers the other
afternoon in New York. "Baseball is
getting so fast that a man in the line
up can't play and manage both." He is
about right.
American leaguers have told me that
Mr. Comiskey has been managing his
club to a great extent this season. This
has doubtless handicapped Rowland
and made every one 6n his team hesi
tate about coming to the front with
suggestions, as in the instance of the
opposing hitter fanning with runners
on first and second bases and then get
ting safely to the first bag.
Of course, no matter what the condi
tions on a team were a player like
Evers would have torn into the plate
and called the umpire's attention to his
mistake. He couldn't have held it In.
But Collins has a different tempera
ment from the fiery "Johnny."
I have heard a story about How
Fielder Jones ran the White Sox when
he was the manager of the club. He
was the absolute boss and the best one
the Sox ever had, too. The team was
on a road trip once, and Comiskey sent
this telegram to Jones:
Absolute Command I Taken,
"Pitch Frank Smith today."
Smith was with the club at that time
and a fa;r spitball twirler. Jones' re
ply to the command was to work Ed
Walsh, and he won the game.
"I had intended to pitch Smith." said
Jones to a ffiend a long time after he
had left the club, in telling the story,
"but I changed my mind when I got
that wire from Comiskey. A manager
must boss the team if he is going to do
anything with it."
All Jones did was to win a world's
championship for Comiskey without
talent to class with the players Row
land has now and in a league which
furnished much tougher traveling.
Comiskey noticed the other day that
J. Collins was not in the line-up when
his team was on the road. He was In
Chicago, himself. He at once called
for a telegraph blank and sent a wire
to Rowland to put J. Collins back in
the batting order. The next day his
name appeared in the box score. That
is the difference between Jones and
Rowland.

Apparently no player has been draft
ed by the majors from the Tortland
Coast League ciub. Major league drafts
were opened September 17, an.l up to
midnight last nielht no telegrams had
been received by W. W. AlcCiedie or
Walter McCredie telling of drafts.
Last year when Koics was drafted
the Xew York Giants telegraphed the
following; morning asking the local
magnates to sign Korea for them.
Although the major league draft
period had three more days to run, the
local magnates do not expect to hear
of Portland drafts now.
Thig means that both Bates and
Coveleskie, the most prominently men
tioned' prospects, will be with the
Beavers next year.
"I didn't expect to see more tl an
two players drafted from the C-!ast
League this year," said Manager Mc
Credie yesterday. "Most of the class
was gobbled up by the majors during
the sale period before the drafting
season. And $2500 nowadays is rjuite
a snug sum, and the magnates are
thinking twice before investing."
If the, Portland club goes to Seattle
Monday to match skill with the .S;attle
champions of the Northwestern League,
McCredie will take 12 men with him.

likely will be Southpaws Lush and

ing up next week with San, Francisco."
remarked McCredie. "I don't Intend to
take any chances and will work rr.y
pitchers only about three innings
apiece against Seattle. We ought to
beat that bunch of Tealey Raymond's
easily, but you can never tell what will
happen in one game."
The arrangements for the interleague
contest have not been officially de
clared binding, but it is not expected
that there will be any hitch. D. E.
Dugdale, the Seattle magnate, wants
to charge ground rent for his park for
the game and the McCredies cannot
see this.
"It will cost us $300 to take our team
up there and we want a 50-30 split o!
the gross," said Judge McCredie.
If the game is pyed the 1" rtland
club will leave late Sunday ni,-'nt and
will return aboard the sleeper Monday
night. Judge McCredie will not be able
to go along, as he is anchored here
with a court case.

In Detroit's Only Tlnns.
BOSTON". Sept. 17. The tables were
turned on the Tigers today, Boston de
feating Detroit, 7 to The Red Sox'
victory again gave the local team a
lead of more than two games, making
it impossible for Detroit to displace
them in the present series.
Leonard held the hard-hitting Tigers
to one single in the first eight innings.
In the ninth he hit Vitt and grooved a
ball for Cobb. The latter- sent it into
the right-field stands and the visitors'
only runs were scored.
Although feeling between the teams
ran high throughout the game, it was
not so much in evidence as was the
case yesterday.
(nrilnrr Panned Purposely.
It was Boston who scored in the first
inning today. James' passes put
Hooper and Speaker on base and llob
litzel's stinging hit to right sent
Hooper home. Speaker was thrown out
at the plate on Lewis' infield rap.
Gardner was passed purposely, filling
the bases, but Barry popped to James.
Detroit had gone out in order in its
half of the first, catches of long flies
by Hooper and Lewis being note
worthy. Boston gained two more runs in the
second. James' wildness made King.
Ieonard and Hooper base-runners.
Young threw low to catch Hooper at
second on Scott's fielder's choice. Leon
ard scoring. Hooper reached home on
Speaker's infield out.
Boston Forces Fighting.
Again in the third Boston forced
the tightincr. finrdnpr uinfUH t
tor and Barry cracked a hit to left.
its pa.si.eci ana Leonard sent
throe runs in with a double to the
embankment in ift tki
James' service. Boland being called to
tiie ueirou pucning slab. Hooper hit
safely, but was caught off first on a
double play when Boland intercepted
his drive.
Leonard's pitching had puzzled de-
trOit. Ho. filmed hiw.lr .ni.A..-- v.- .
who faced him during the first three
wi.ii.iKs, inree uy striKeouts.
The fourth inning also added to
Boston's score. Speaker's double alonfr
the left field line and Hoblitzel's sacri
fice hit. with a long sacrifice flv bv
Lewis produced the. Red Sox seventh
tally.
Vitt had singled for Detroit's first
hit In the fourth and Veach had been
passed, with two out. before Hooner
pulled down Crawford's distant drive.
Double- Play Repeated.
Sharp fielding kept the Tigers in
leash in the fifth and sixth innings.
Scott made a skilful
off Cobb's bat. Boland and Burns re
peated their double play ot the third
inning in the fifth.
Lewis bounced a ball off the left
field fence for two bases in the sev
enth. Gardner was passed, but Veach
gathered in Barry's long fly 'and Stan
age caught Carrigan's foul for the
third out.
Three Detroit pinch hitters failed of
success in the eighth. As a result of
their appearance. Oldham pitched.
