A I T-.trHaiwJ Game with Vernon post-
pona. rain.
At Oaklantl alt I-ake S. San Francisco 3.
.At Ls Angflt- Oakland If, L Angeles 1.
No Vernon-Portland game was
played yesterday on account of the
damp condition of Recreation FarK
Walt McCredie, Ham Patterson and
"Tub' Spencer, Vernon catcher, spoiled
t hrf e perfect ly good chines walking1
around the ba.-ejs in the mud and then
advised L'mpires Phyle and Doyle to
call ihe affair off.
Today is ladies' day. Houck and
Ro h1, for the Heavers, will oppose Hess
and Spencer, for the TiprM. He as is
the laruky southpaw obtained by the
Vernon club alone with Hert Whaling
from the Boston Braves a.s part pay
Trient for Outfielder Joe Wllhoit. Hens
finished a few games for the Braves
last season.
KI!y- Arrival Aanalted.
Everyone around baseball headquar
ters in the Yeon building yesterday
van easr-rly awaiting- the arrival of
Pitcher Herbert Kelly, who, it is hoped,
will strengthen the Beavers' wobbling
Ftaff. Kelly i.s a dandy southpaw and
1a coming di rect from the Cleveland
A mcricans. He was due in yesterday,
but up until late last night had not ap
pea red. f he shows up today, Walt
McCredie said yesterday, Portland fans
misht get their first view of the new
chutker Sunday.
Another point was settled yesterday
after noon. Charley Hollocher, the
youthful shortstop of the Portland
club, will be carried all season that is.
If he doesn't get lazy and gets some
cinerr into his play. According to
Walt McCredie, who was the sponsor
for the statement last week that Holly
would be released soon, the Keokuk
youngster has the earmarks of a great
shortstop. He. however, lacks the dash
and pepper of a Dave Bancroft or an
Ivor Olson.
eir Shortittop Sought
Manager McCredie has decided to en
deavor to install the needed pepper
and lli'e into Hollocher and has de
cided to give him the utility infielilng
role for the year. alter still sticks
to his declaration that he ha lines out
for another shortstop and that Ward
will be lt out as soon as the new man
is landed and arrives. The time for
the cutting down of his league teams
Is at hand and Walter will no doubt
name the nw shortpatcher soon.
Manager Patterson, of the Tigers, Is
one of the upholders of the idea that
every Coast Leaaue club should carry
2 players. He says that some of the
other clubs of the circuit are in favor
t that rule that it gives a manager
an opportunity to carry a couple cf
youngsters for developing purposes.
McCredie Thinks ! KnouKh.
"Where are your youngsters?" was
asked the Vernon pilot, who is loaded
down here with 1& seasoned tossers.
" I don't happen to have any." retorted
Ham, "but I was speaking of how nice
it would be to be able to carry -0
players."
Walter McCredie seer the situat ion
differently. "The majors only carry
2 'J." said Boss Walter yesterday. "We
usr to play ball right in this league
with only 1 1 and 1 2 men on the club
and we won pennants and put up a
better grade of ball than is being put
up now. The 'oast League limit ousht
to be 16 instead of IS. A youngster
(ant be developed on the bench and
who is coins to play one In the middle
of a hot race where wins arc needed?
The place for the youngster, unless
he is exceptional, like Sped Martin, of
Oakland, or (Juisto, is in a league where
lie tan play every day."

SALMON ANGLERS KEEP BUSY
River at Oregon City Dotted With
Fishermen, AVIio Make Big Catches.
Cognizant of the fact that the net
fishermen will be privileged to invade
their fishing grounds at noon May 1.
local rod and tackle fanciers are get
ting in their best licks at the famous
Oregon City falls salmon rendezvous.
Yesterday the Willamette Kiver just
below the falls was dotted with small
craft, and some good catches were re
ported. Dr. K. C. McFarland and Will
iam Block caught the limit, three
apiece, by 8:30 o'clock in the morning,
tha largest weighing 31 pounds. John
Drennon bagged three between day
break and 6:30 o'clock. H. B. Van Duzer
and wife hooked four beautiee.-
lleretofore the net fishermen have
been privileged to scoop the fish out
of the holes below the falls after May
1, but this year they will not be per
mitted to go above the suspension
bridge. Dr. McFarland believes this
will mean good line fishing by the
sportsmen until late in May and pos
sibly throughout the entire month.

FANS!! XJ
Tonight we will stage what we con
fidentally expect to be the "live wire"
smoker of the season. Six evenly
matched bouts of aggressive, game and
scientific boxers with two champion
ship decisions to be rendered are on the
card.
The programme, will be pulled off on
time and the guests will be seated com
fortably and not spread over an acre of
ground.
We trust that a satisfactory referee
will be decided on by the boxers.

Ricoro' Cigars
are the Pride of the Famous
Cigar Makers of Porto Rico
Nowhere in the world not even
in Havanais more skillful work
done on cigars- than in the Ricoro
factory at San Juan. Senor Luis
Toro, President of the Company,
himself a master of the art, picks
the native Spaniards for the work
as a great hotel picks its cooks.
The RICORO
(Invincible Size) 7 cts. each
or by the box of 50, $3.50
is an example of what these wonderfully
gifted cigar makers can accomplish work
ing with Porto Rican tobacco, planted, cul
tivated, ripened and cured in fields where
every condition prevails that favors tobacco
growing on any island of the West Indies.
The RICORO Cigar is imported
FREE OF DUTY.
The one difference between Porto Rican
and Cuban tobacco is the delicate mildness
of the former, due to its cultivation on high
altitudes, under shade (as shown in the
illustration above.)

mentor that is the probable day of tho
meeting. The Miller-O'Connell match,
which will be pulled off here in the
near future, may conflict with the Seat

definitely settled on for the latter
clash in Portland. May 1 was at first
named, but as there will likely be a

put on by one of the local clubs, it may
be switched.
