Golf Club Ix-rrrs Selection of Mte.
The regular meeting of the Portland
Golf Club directorate Tuesday noon
at the Imperial Hotel waa a quiet ar
f.ir. according to Secretary Harry H.
I'rarre. No action toward eelcctlon of
th sit for tha new clubhouse waa
taken.
BY BILLY KVANS.
(American League Umpire.)
GOLF la popular with bullplayera.
A majority of tha members ot tha
New Tork Giant are strong for tha
game. Most of them are mluhty pro
ficient. While Manager McUraw plays
golf hlmrelf. he believes It la bad for
the plaer during tna playing season.
McGraw figures the player wno aoea is
holra under the hot sun In the morning
burns up a considerable amount of men
tal and physical energy that he should
expend, on the ball field In the after
noon. Itegaralrss of Jicoraw a icei
Inas In tbe matter, a number of his
piavera have continued the game
against Ma wishes.
...
Karly In the season the Giants got
away to a very dso. sian: nummK
seemed to break richt for them. It Is
needless to say that McUraw waa far
from a chipper Individual aa h en
tered the Giants' clubhouse, after his
team hud lost Its seventh straignt
game. None of tha players were in
Terr happy fram or mina euner.
Most of them expected McGraw to say
something with a lobasco flavor, but
he dre.sed In silence. As ha opened
the door to depart- In a vole that could
be heard In any corner of the dressing,
room, he remarked:
"As a ball club I have a great bunch
of golf players." Kvldently the sar
the next day the Ulanta stent out ana
brat tlrooklyn 1 to 0.
A most Important asset of every
catcher and outfielder Is a throwtn
arm. Ix-t an outfielder have a weak
arm and the baserunnera are quick to
take advantage of the fact. let a
catcher once snow slans of Inability to
whip the ball lo tba various bases with
Ma usual speed and baserunnera will
soon make life mlaerable ftr him. Con.
sKtlerina tha areat Importance of the
throwing arm. It la almost Impossible

throwing to retain his accuracy, but I

Joe Jackson, of the Chicago club, has
a moat wonderful arm. Yet It Is a bobby
of Jackeon to try to throw tba ball out
of tha park every time he gets hold

regret his foolish action. Ballplayers
admit nothing Is hsrder on the arm

W. W. MeCredie,' president of the
Portland Coast League baseball club,
does not expect that any legal bar
riers will be raised against ."iinday
baseball games in this city.
Answering a hurried telegram from
A. T. Baum and the league directors
in session In San Francisco yesterday.
President MeCredie said substantially
this:
"Old blue law closing everything air
tight In state, is to be put to vote of
the people next Fail. I do not be
lieve 10 per crnt of the people will
Indorse such a stringent law. Locally
I he re Is no demand for Sunday closing
of ball parks, theaters, golf links, stop
ping of streetcars and such things.
Judire Gantenbein haa temporary in
junction against enforcement of law
and I do not think no win reverse
himself."
"of course. the Judge remarked
later. "If tha people of Portland do
not want Sunday baseball the Pacific
Coast League will not attempt to buck
the people. The league will simply
have to withdraw from the city. The
visiting teams lose money nearly every
trip even with Sunday baseball played
here.
"There i no mora reason for closing
baseball on Sunday, however, than lor
forbidding railroad trains and street
cars from operating. All these things
sre for the convenience of the public.
We have alwas taken a stand against
Sunday morning games In Portland,
Both morning and afternoon games are
played on Sundays In other cities
around the circuit, but we have felt
that Sunday morning belonged to 'the
churches exclusively. However, there
are thousands of clerks and others
who have no chance to tee baseball
during the week and to these Sunday
afternoon baseball is a treat. It keeps
them out of doors and It Is clean and
manly and I do not think It la any
desecration of the Sabbath."

Next Aame.
Friday Portland, at Seattle.
That Portland has a better hockey
team than last year and will be up
around the top fighting for the pennant
to the finish seems "to be universally
acknowledged around the circuit.
Ran McDonald's opinion of the two
teams ought to be interesting. Mc
Donald nlaved center for Portland last
year part of the time and was traded
to Victoria this year for Dunderdale.
"The Portland team last season was
weak at center," explained McDonald
during the recent visit of the Victoria
septet. "I had never played center in
my life and it waa new to me. We
didn't have a center and yet that is
supposed to be the chief scoring posi
tion on a hockey team."
Apparantly Manager Savage also
bolstered the offensive front when he
moved Tobin up to Throop's wing posi
tion. Throop was not much help to
the Uncle Sams during the first part
of the season. When the veteran did
warm to his work, the pennant had
been clinched by Vancouver.
Young Murray's superb goal tending
has also been quite a factor in the
rise of the 1916 septet.
a a a ,
Up at Vancouver the value of a
center man has already been demon
strated this year. Mickey Mackay
broke in last year as a raw "busher"
and waa the sensation of the season.
Due in great measure to Mackay the
Millionaires came from behind and
romped away, not only with the Coast
League gonfalon, but also with the
world's championship. Mackay at this
stage last year was leading the league
in goals or was mighty close to the top.
The year the proud Mickey scored
only two goals In the three games be
fore his injury, and, were it not for
Frank Patrick's re-entry into uniform,
the Vancouver bunch likely would be
mired to the armpits in the quick
sands. Patrick's presence seems to have in
spired his men, for they have downed
Seattle twice in a row.
a a a
Seattle's puck-chasing peregrinations
also present quite an anomaly. Five of
the Mets came west from the National
Hockey Association, where the rules do
not permit forward passing in the
center of the rink as in the Pacific
Coast League.
Naturally, the Easterners were some
what handicapped at first and they
said they would not really get used to
things for a few weeks. Then look
out.
"Well. Seattle sailed in and won
three games and Just when they were
expected to show something, the rival
teams began spreading boiled soap on
their private sidewalk. Since then the
Mets have dropped three games.

It seems that Manager Lester Pat

man at the Wasco County Jail. He is
serving out a fine of 1100 following
conviction on an assault and battery
