The Angels nosed the Beavers out today, 2 to 1, in an airtight pitch ing match between ' Houck and Jack Ryan. The former American Leaguer practically lost his own game by giv ing two bases on balls, one in the sixth and the other in the seventh. Both were turned into runs. Ryan had most of the breaks and was given the better support, although the errors were only one apiece and he also had by far the best control, walking but one man to Houck's half dozen, but even with this liberality runs were pretty hard to get. Portland scored first in its half of the sixth. Houck got in front of the ball and it lodged in his ribs. Wilie put him on third with a double the Beavers' longest hit of the day and he scored when McLarry threw Vaughn out at first. Wilie came mighty close to scoring on Nixon's grounder to Gal loway, but after see-sawing between third and home for what seemed an age the Angels finally got him. The Angels evened this up on Ryan's walk and Maggert's triple and in the seventh they won on Brassler's walk, Butler's single and a double steal by this pair, Bassler scoring. This makes the second game Bassler has stowed away safely for the Angels this series by stealing home. Maggert's hand was badly cut in the third inning by Ward's spikes when he slid into second. The game was stopped five minutes while the Angels' trainer bandaged up the injury. Maggert refused to quit and played the game out, his triple in the sixth tying up the score. Vaughn played the game at short without an assist. The Angels have an edge on the series, 3 to 2.

While the Giants are spurting In the National League, just take a look at Vernon spurting in the Coast League. www During the training season at Boyes Springs, from the closest observation of the ballplayers of the Oakland club Rowdy Elliott became firmly convinced that he had every prospect of a club that would surely be a contender for the pennant. Each player on naper from his past performances showed that he measured up to Class AA company, Now Rowdy Is wondering what's wrong. www ins uaKiana tnneia, with Barry a first, Kenworthy at second, Barbeau a third and Davis at short, looked rea sonably fast and evenly balanced at the start of the season. Elliott be lieved that they would prove the equal if not superior of any infield in the league, and it Is presumed that Rowdy still thinks so, although the team Is in the cellar. Pitcher Al Sothoron, of the Beavers has proved a regular Shylock when i comes to allowing hits in the pinches lately. The Bees are still hitting consist entiy. and about an their losses are charged to poor pitching. Oakland made another attempt thl week to purchase Harl Maggert, out nelder, irom Los Angeles, but the. ex Oak refused to join Elliott's team threatening flatly to retire from base ball.

RITCHIE IS MODEST IF1 HIS VICTORIES Ex-Champion Lightweight In vests Earnings Wisely and Is Getting Returns. QUICK RISE SENSATIONAL Boxer W'ho Is Training for Bout With Gruman Here Next Tuesday .Night Not Affected by Wins and Shies at Dissipation. BY HARRY M. GRAYSON. If every young, promising boxer would follow In the footsteps of Willie Ritchie, former lightweight champion, the fistic game would be far better off. The California boy. who Is preparing for his contest with Ralph Gruman at the Portland Ice Hippodrome next Tuesday night, is a credit to the game. When Willie bacame lightweight champion as a result of defeating Ad Volgast, November 28, 1912, he realized the faults and weaknesses of other oxers and former champions. Being ifted from a comparatively "ham-and gg boxer to the lightweight champion failed to swell his head. ' Instead of hitting the high spots and quandering his money foolishly, he tarted in at once to make what looked like profitable Investments, and his good judgment is now brought out by he fact that he is now the possessor f one of San Francisco's most promi- ent apartment-houses, which nets him handsome income. Cash Put Into Bonds. He is also the owner of San Fran cisco municipal bonds. ' Ritchie was born with a pair of boxing gloves on. He used to steal his way into ail the big engagements held in or around the Bay City from the ime that he was 10 years old on, and always had visions of some day meet ing top-notchers himself. V hen he was 4 years of age he used to box in Alex Greggains' gymnasium in San r'rancis i and had pictures of himself undier which were written. "Geary Steffen. champion of the world." He was born on Clara street, which is south of Market, the "fighf-or-run-section of San Francisco, and on this same street was born Abe, Monte and Caesar Attell and Eddie Hanlon. Some collection of celebrities to be turned out by one avenue. Ednarda Gets Teach Ins; Credit. To Frankie Edwards, who boxed here several years ago, goes much credit for teaching the present welterweight championship contender the finer points of the manly art, which he needed In his early conflicts. Ritchie made his debut In West Oak- and the latter part of 1908, when he substituted in a four-round engage ment for Willie Richardson, brother of James J. Richardson, now of Port- and. Willie was then 16 years old and a bantamweight. He won the de cision over some Oakland boy. He dubbed" along until the early part of 1910, when he startled fans around Golden Gate Park by several successive victories at the Oakland Wheelmen s Club. In the early part of the next year. 1911, he was given main events In four- rounu shows in fa an Jr ranclsco, when he knocked out Tommy McFarland and beat boys like Abe Label and Guy Lee and finally gave Jack Britton, the present welterweight king, a boxing lesson, winning an easy decision and being crowned king of the four-round ers. First SO-Round Boat Won. Ritchie's first 20-round engagement was In San Francisco with Matty Bald win. The Boston lightweight, after 20 rounds of fast boxing, received Ref eree Griffin's decision. Ritchie's show ing in this match paved his way to get In the camp of Packey McFarland, who was out on the Coast at that time to meet Tommy Murphy. Ritchie got a lot of his polish from McFarland, aid the two boxers correspond to this day. While Ritchie was boxing with Mc Farland he received a call from Los Angeles to the tffect that Ad Wolgast was stricken with appendicitis and was unable to go on the next day with Freddie Welsh. Ritchie left San Fran Cisco immediately for the Cafeteria City and lost a close 20-round decision to the Englishman the next day. How he later boxed olgast four rounds and then relieved him of his title in 16 rounds is history. The Sportlight By tirantland Itlce. Where the puddle is shallow, the weakflsh stay To drft along with the current's flow; To take the tide as It moves each day With the Idle ripples that come and go: With a hrinking fear of the gales th; blow By distant coasts where the great ports gleam ; Where the far heights call through the all ver glow, "Only the gamefish swims upstream." Where the shore is waiting, the minnows play. Borne by the current's undertow; Drifting, fluttering on their way Bound by a fate that has willed It so: In the tree-flung shadows they never know How far they have come from the old, brave dream: Where the wild gales call from the peaks of snow "Only the gamefish swims upstream.' Where the tide rolls down in a flash ot snrav And strikes with the might of a bitter foe, The shrimp and the aponge are held at bay Where the 'dusk winds call and tho sun sinks low; They call It fate In their endless woe Am they shrink in fear when the wild hawks scream From the cram and crests where the great thorns grow "Only the gamefish swims upstream." Held with the current the fates bestow The driftwood moves to a sluggish theme. Nor heeds the call which the far Isles throw "Only the gamefish swims upstream." Conrernlng Bnttlnsr. TTTHO Is the most graceful hitter YV In baseball?" asks a reader. Personally, or Impersonally, as the case may be, we prefer to watch Frank Schulte, Heinle Zimmerman or Nap Lajoie, with Trla Speaker only a stride behind. Schulte and Zimmerman are free, natural hitters, without any restrain ing kink in their swings.' Schulte comes nearer to having a golf stroke in his sweep than any other player in the upper leagues. Other Graces. As for fielding grace, we know of no one who can beat Hal Chase or Lajoie. And as for the pitching part of it. Walter Johnson has "the easiest, most natural motion of them all. For all around gi ace in the fiold and at the bat Lajoie leads the infielders and Speiker 'he outfielders. In Other I.lnea. Considering all strokes. Chick Evans is the most graceful, rhythmic golfer we liave e&en, while In awn tennis the late Anthony Wilding had an appeal for us beyond all the others. In the way of consummate grace or ease upon the football field we can re call no one beyond Ned Mahan. One Year and Another. Last season, as we recall the statis tics, Fred Toney won 17 games and dropped six for a ball club that fin ished In seventh place. The Reds since then have been bolstered considerably, but Toney. Instead of being a whirl wind, has been something of a mark. You can never tell about these ath letes or many of them from one year to another. The Strong Boy from Billy Goat Hill was almost as effective last season as Alexander was. This season he has lost about as many games in seven o- eight starts as he lost last year In 25.

For weeks they crushed our cherished dream; For weeks they held us in the thrall; But who Is there to dull the gleam. Aye, who Is there to atop a team That hits the ball?

Under these abnormal conditions can he therefore be a true golfer? But the fellow has won the open championship once and the amateur championship four times. This leaves a complex sit uation. What is to be done about it? Cornell," writes Ezra II. "finished first In football- before the year is out she will be first in track and field meets, first on the water and probably first in baseball. What other sports have they?" How about pinochle? We don't know where the Giants will finish. But any ball club that can start back up hill from such a dismal depth and travel tinwnrrl at such mi Is not to be rated out of It. Batting is a big factor in developing and main taining the so-called Pep. The Giants can hit hit with any club in the trame. This will make them foimidable rivals all the way, if not actual winners.
