Am quitting the club. Take Shasta

This terse message, received yester
day by Mrs. John Lush, wife of the
popular Portland southpaw, apparently
means that Walter McCredle'a Coast
Leaguers w'lll be minus the veteran
when It returns north Tuesday.
The telegram came as a distinct sur
prise to Mrs. Lush, for there had been
no advance Intimation over thewlres
that her husband Intended quitting
baseball.
Sir. Lush to Start Today.
He has been troubled all season by a
lame arm, and apparently his failure to
round to form In the warm weather In
Southern California brought about his
sudden resolve.
Mrs. Lush intends leaving for Los
Angeles today.
Lush's departure will simplify Judge
McCredie's task, for he has three young
pitchers slated to Join the team here,
They are Al Hartman, of Washington
State College: Bickey Williams, of the
Oregon Agricultural College, and Ray
Alexander, of the College of Idaho.
Oscar Harstad was turned over to
Spokane yesterday, so, with both Har
stad and Lush off the list of eligible,
there will be room for the young bloo-d.
Luk Joined Beavers In 1914.
Lush joined the Portland club in 1914,
when he won seven out of 11 games for
the Portland champions. Ue came here
from Cleveland after 10 or 12 years'
service In various big leagues and near
major leagues.
Lush Joined the Philadelphia Na
tionals In 1904 and remained there un
til 1907, when he was traded to St.
Louis. After three or four years with
the Cards he was shunted to Toronto, of
the International League, and pitched
In this circuit until drafted by Cleve
land in the Fall of 1913.
Lush Is a brainy, popular fellow, and
his friends will miss his presence with
the Beavers.

occurred In New Haven, Conn, on
Wednesday night,' was a distinct shock
to friends In this city, as word received
but a few days previous was to the ef
fect that he had rallied from the op
eration and was rapidly recovering.
Hie son, Harold S. Gilbert, of the A.
C. Gilbert Company, thinks probably
that unexpected complications set in.
following the operation for gall stone,
which, was performed nearly two weeks
ago.
It Is believed that the body will be
remated in New Haven and the ashes
sent to Portland, where funeral serv
ices will be held.
Since 1300. Mr. Gilbert had figured
prominently In the Portland piano
trade. In that year he came to this
city from Moscow, Idaho, where he had
een cashier of the Moscow First Na
tional Bank.
Piano Interest Purchased.
Soon after his arrival Mr. Gilbert
urchased the interests of the Wiley B.
Allen Company, "which later became the
Allen & Gilbert Co.. and still later the
Allen & Gllbert-Ranaker .Company. His
Interests in the piano business of this
lty art represented by the A. C. Gilbert
Company, of which Harold S. Gilbert is
manager.
Mr. Gilbert was born In Kalamazoo
County, Michigan, on November 12, 1848,
and came to Oregon in 1869. At Hub
bard. Or., he married Miss Charlotte
Annie Hovender, on June 14, 1880. At
one time, and for a number of years.
Mr. Gilbert was engaged in the bank
ing business at Salem, lat-r removing
to Moscow, Idaho, where he remained
until 1900, when he came to this city.
High Degree Held in Masons.
He was a 32d degree Scottish Rite
Mason, a member of the First Congre
gational Church, and was connected
with the Commerce Safe Deposit &
Mortgage Company. An especial In
terest was manifested by him in be
nevolent and charitable organizations.
with his wife, Mr. Gilbert was pay
ing a visit to his sons in New Haven.
and was expected to return sometime
this month. Alfred C. Gilbert, former
Multnomah Club athletic star, is the
head of an extensive toy manufactory
In that city. He will be recalled as the
one-time holder of the world's pole
vault record, which he ""broke on two
occasions. While attending Tale he
won the inter-collegiate championship
of the United States In wrestling. An
other son, Wellington, Is at Tale, and

WHITE-ariTCHELIi EIGHT FAST
Opinions Vary Widely aa to Victor
in 1 0 Rounds of Milling.
MILWAUKEE. June 2. After 10
rounds of fast milling in a no-decision
boxing contest tonight between Charlie
White, of Chicago, and Ritchie Mitchell,
or Milwaukee, lightweights, sporting
writers airrerea widely on the outcome.
Some called White the winner and
otaers favored Mitchell. Still others
thought it a good draw.
White strove vainly throughout the
contest to land a finishing punch, but
Mitchell either blocked or danced out
of the way.
Mitchell time and again shot his lift
to White's face as the Chicago battler
kept forcing the milling.
In the third round Mitchell was
sent to his knees by a left hook to the
Jaw, but was up Immediately and mix
ing It with White at the bell.
With Whlte?s superior strength It
appeared several times In the final
rounds that Mitchell was due to take
the count, but the local boxer covered
and before the sessions ended he over
came White's apparent advantage.
