The Portland Pacific Coast Hockey Association team lost the vleclding same here tonight to the Montreal Canadiens by two goals to one. The contest v. as hard fought :tnd spirited and in the last period the rival teams skated like mad men . and the big crowd was kept in an uproar, especially after Dunderviale, of Port land, nad shot the goal which brought the score- to a one-to-one tie. The series was hard fought through out and even the most ardent Eastern fans admitted tonight that Montreal had shown little if any superiority over the clever skaters from the Pa cific Coast. Each team had won two frames and tonight's frame, played un der National Hockey Association rules, an advantage to the locals, wag the de ciding factor. The rival sextettes battled for 12 minutes in the initial period before a ecore was made. Then the Canadlens scored their first goal, which was of rather a fluky nature. As Referee Harvey Pulford dropped the puck for a face-off near the Portland nets, Ronan batted at the puck, and it dropped into the nets vn een by Murray, the Portland goal tender. The second period was a scoreless one, while in the first 10 minutes of the final session Dunderdale, of Port land, tied up the score. With four .minutes left to play, Ooldie Prodgers, who has been the sensation of tha series through his starting the Cana dlens on their victorious march in each frame won by them, scored the deciding goal. He secured possession of the puck behind his own nets and worked his way in close enough to draw Mur ray out and tally. The following is the way the teamd started out: i'anadiens. Fosition. Portland.

PAN JOSE, Cal., March 30. (Special.) There was a cutting wind today, the first that has come up for more than a week, but it wasn't allowed to inter fere with the programme in the slight est degree. Wolverton proposes to drive the men from now until Tuesday afternoon and no mercy is to be shown. IT- i . . ,1 . . : i . .i . . ' ' isaucu signals iui tut: icaiu una kept the batsmen steadily at their grind for a'couple of hours. ; Wolverton has given up hope of hav ing Bobby Jones at third for the first week of play. Gay is asured of opening at third and it might be remarked that in such a pinch the club is lucky to have as likely-looking a player to substitute. Signs point to Jerry Downs as field ing captain of the Seale this season. He is certain, since there ie no one .fighting against him, is hitting better than any man on the club and appears to have the baseball sense.

HAWKINS, OP OREOON CITY, NOTED SALMON KILLER. Minister Waiting Eagerly for Water to Recede That Trolllns May Be Enjoyed Below Palis. OREGON CITY, Or.. March 30. (Spe cial.) Rev. J. K. Hawkins, of the First Methodist Church, is a fisherman for both fish and men. Just at present the local pastor is eagerly awaiting the time when the high waters of the Wil lamette will recede and the river below the Falls will become the paradise of the salmon troller. Rev. Mr. Hawkins, who has been sta tioned at Medford and Roseburg, has fished in the Rogue and the North Umpqua Rivers for salmon, as well as other streams in all parts of the state, and is a lover of the sport. He has se cured a boat and a large quantity of tackle and other equipment ready for the first day the river gets back to its ordinary stage. Salmon trolling in the Willamette River will probably surpass the sport offered in past years because of the Gill act, which greatly regulates net fishing here. Under its stringent pro visions, the commercial net fishermen, who spoil the fishing for the sports man, must not cast their nets be tween the suspension bridge and the falls, in this way reserving the best portion of the river to the man with hook and line. The river will probably be low enough to allow fishing within the next week or ten days. HOUSE LEAGUE TEA MIS GROW Multnomah Club Nines Add Several Players to Squads.

FIRST SACKER HITS FOUR Home Riin.'Great Pielding and Good Base Work Are Collegian's Part. Wilie Makes 3 Doubles Dunn and Smith Pounded Hard. BY ROSCOE FAWCETT. PORTLAND TRAINING CAMP, Sac ramento, Cal., March 30. (Special.) In a game that was a battle of heavy artillery the Chicago Negro Giants knocked two ot Portland's recruit pitchers into the discard today and de feated the Coast League Caucasians in the first of the series. Score: 11 to 6. Four home runs enlivened the windy afternoon. Captain Hill, of the sepia tinted troupe, knocked two homers over the rightfield fence off Indian Smith. In addition. Hill bagged a double off Dunn, the Kansas City "busher," and a single off Smith. Gus Fisher was sent out as a pinch hitter by Manager McCredie with two men on the bags in the eighth and Fisher likewise plastered one over the right wall for a homer. Ciuimto I Bis Noise. Louis Guisto was the other the atric thumper. Guisto, in fact, featured as the big noise of tho day. Besides making a sensational one-handed catch of a line drive, which he promptly converted into a double. Guisto larruped our four hits in his five trips to the plate. The first, two were line drives to right field, the next a line drive into left field, and his final slam a screaming home-run drive inside the park between the left and the center fielders. Guisto seems to be improving every day and if he does not hit .300 in the Coast League McCredie says he intends to quit baseball and go to selling roasted chestnuts on the street corners. One of the big dinges ran into Louis a-t first base along about the eighth or ninth inning and laid him out cold and stiff for a few moments. Fred Derrick probably would have been out for a month, but Guisto was up again in a jiffy and his home-run belt broke into the box score immediately after wards. Denny Wilie Not mo Bad. Dennis Wilie was the other Portland star of the game. The fleet-footed little southpaw gardener secured three two-base swats and a walk in his five pilgrimages. Aside. from Guisto, Wilie' and Fisher, however, the Portland team did not particularly impress itself upon the 300 spectators. No ball club looks good behind ineffective twirling. Ernie Dunn was McCredie's first choice and the Kansas City lad weathered only two innings. The negroes hopped on him in the second frame for five runs, although it must be said for him that Ward's error at short let down the bars for the wholesale slaughter. Indian Smith twirled the next six innings and allowed 10 of the negroes' 15 safe swats, two of them homers, one a double and another a triple. Hig ginbotham pitched the last, inning. Hig came through unharmed in spite of two boots by young Hollacher, sub stituting for Ward at short. The Ethiopians have practically the same club which toured the Coast last Spring. Grant, at first, is a new man. - Score: Chicago Gian I Portland B H O AK PRO AE 4 3 0 0 0 Petway.c. 1 3 0 l'Wille.m. .. Hill.m. 4 1 '0 OiVaughn.2.. 3 4 0 OI.N'lxon.r. . .. 3 2 1 Duncan. r..

TIGER INFIELD IS SELECTED Glelchinann, Griggs, McGaffigan and Bates Will Be Regulars., LOS ANGELES, Cal., March 20. (Spe cial.) President Maier and Manager Patterson are satisfied with the Tiger lineup and are planning no changes, they said today. The Tiger bosses are especially well pleased with the infield. The infield will start the season as it now lines up. Gleichmann will be on first. Maier believes the Dutchman will hit much better than he did last -year. There never has been any question on his ability as a fielder. Griggs, on second, has not hit his gait as a fielder, but he is swatting the ball hard. Marty McGaffigan, at short, looks like a sensation. He is smaller than Zeb Terry, but looks strong in D AVhy that style o tVTien you see a hat style that looks good to you that has a marked individuality and the proper tilt, take the trouble to find what brand is inside.

The Oakland regulars. all primed and ready to move on to Salt Lake tonight for the opening of the season, were treated to a surprise pack age today. The yannigans, with Kuhn on first; Bill Le-ard, second; Burg, shortstop; Hosp. third, and Randall. Lane and Boyd in outfield, turned the trick by a 7-to-4 score. Manser, the Federal League recruit, was on the mound and held Rowdy's sluggers in check with six hits. Captain Kenworthy got in from Los Angeles and was at second base. Manager Elliott has definitely decid ed on the team he will take to Salt I.ake tomorrow night. There will be Catchers H. Elliott, Griffith and F. Elli ott; Pitchers Klawitter. Beer, Proug. Manser, Klein, Martin, Cabek and Boyd; Infielders Barry. Kenworthy, Davis. Barbeau and Burg, and Outfielders Gardner, Zimmerman, Middleton, Ran dall and young Lane. BEES HOLD SNAPPY PRACTICE Herb 3turphy Takes Bad Bound on N Pinger and Is Injured. SALT LAKE, Utah, March 30. (Spe cial.) The Salt Lakers put in another strenuous afternoon today. Batting practice was cut short a bit to give the infield a chance to shoot 'em around. And they did that, same with a vim and vigor that caused BOO fans to let fly plenty of noise. Herb Murphy started at second base and. was going great guns until a bad hop took him on his sore finger and Blank ordered him to the bench. Brick Eldred finished out the practice at second. Jack Vann, the new catcher, let hie arm out a little today and astonished the pre-season experts with his peg ging. In batting practice all the pitchers were again sent to the mound for 10 minutes each with orders to put "something on the ball." All around it was a fine workout. Coast League Notes WHEN Oakland released Infielder Hosp it meant that Joe Burg, the Milwaukee player, has won the infield utility job with the Oaks. Burg has showed a big Improvement of late. Newt Randall, also of Milwaukee, will be carried in the utility outfield role at least until April 15 and maybe there after. . Griffith and Young- Elliott will fight it out for the second string catching Job with Oakland and both will be car ried for the first month. Pitchers Kla witter. Beer, Prough and Chabeck have won steady berths with the club. Ray Boyd and Charley Pruiett will compete for the fifth pitcher, and "Doc" Man ser, Speed Martin and Ed Klein will scrap it out for the sixth position. Captain Bill Kenworthy, of the Oaks, says that his shoulder and arm, which were sore enough to cause a trip to Los Angeles to see Dr. Spencer, the "Bonesetter" Reese of the West, are better and that he is ready to start the season right now. The Salt Lake baseball squad, which Is in Salt Lake at present., has been pruned down to the 18 mark by Mana ger Cliff Blankenship. Blank is well satisfied with the condition of his men and says that the Modesto camp is an ideal site for the training of a ball club. The team will work out on its home diamond until the men oppose the Oaks there Tuesday. Four more days and they'll be off. If the weather here 'April 18 is as nice as it was yesterday, there will be some jam at Vaughn street. "Dutch" Reuther seems sure of land ing a regular outfield berth with the Bees. The lad who pitched last sea son made the training camp session in teresting by slamming out long hits, with an occasional home run. Doc White, who is reported as the secretary of the Vernon Club and who announced that he intended to quit baseball for keeps when he resigned as manager of the Denver Western League team a month or eo ago, is a man of many talents. White has the reputation of being quite a businessman. If he fails in business he can make a living in vaudeville, where he has quite a reputation. He is also in demand as a church-choir singer. If he fails at everything else, the Doc can hang out a shingle and take up the practice of dentistry, for he is said to be as good a dentist as he was a ballplayer a few years back. He Is also some manager and the turning over of the Vernon team to Ham Pat terson and the consequent relieving of White of the management is one of the oddities of. baseball hard to explain. . m m Only a few hours more and the Coast League clubs will abandon the pre liminary skirmishes and settle down to play out the 1916 schedule. Frank Chance, manager of the Los Angeles team, has made himself mighty popular with his squad. Chance does not believe in too much routine prac tice and relieved the monotony of Spring workouts by preliminary games. Chance also differs from many mana gers in the way he strives to correct faults in various ways. He has a world of patience. Xeff and Casey Box at Wenatehee. WEXATCHEE, Wash., March 30. (Special.) Chet Neff and Harry Casey, both rated among the top-notch light- Gordon Hats It's mighty hard, sometimes, for a man to keep up his appearance. He often needs a new suit of clothes acutely and yet cannot buy them for lack of funds. And right here is where we come to the point. Any man you can get a new suit at any time today by making use of the Credit Department at CHERRY'S CLOTHING STORE. This concern, established many years ago, does an enormous credit business with men in all circumstances. And don't think for a minute that because at CHERRY'S you can buy new clothes by making only a small first payment that you won't have the same breadth and variety of choice that you would have in any of the big cash stores. You'll find at CHERRY'S as superb a stock of new Spring things as any store in town can show you. CHERRY'S store is open until 10 o'clock Saturday evenings, so drop in and look the place over; it will do you good. Take the wife or sister or friend, with you, as they also carry a complete, line of women's apparel. 389-91 Wash.
