'I Salt Lake at Portland. f Los Angeles at Oakland. j an Francisco at Vernon. With a switched Infield and four new pitchers. Cliff Blankenship and his Salt Lake Bees will open a seven-game eries with the Beavers this after noon at 8 o'clock. When they opened the season here In April, Morris Rath, former American Association star, had just joined the elub and was doing the second-basins'. Murphy played third. The former has Been switched to third base and Mur phy, who originally came to the Coast is a Beaver In part payment for Dave Bancroft from the Phillies, has been benched. Eddie Hallinan, who was on the bench for Skipper Blankenship when here last, has been released and Is at -present serving: as utility infielder lor San Francisco. Frank Gulgnl is playing; second at present for Salt Lake. Guigni has been with the Bees for only a few days, coming: from the Seattle club of the Northwestern League in a trade lnvolv Ing Brick Eldred. outfielder. Gulgrnl Is the Italian lad from St. Mary's College who formerly played with- Nick Will tarns' Portland Colts. Much. Surprise In Trade, Blankenship stirred up considerable wonderment on the part of many Port land fans when he traded Eldred for Gulgrnl. Blankenship needed an in fielder, and evidently he flgrured he could afford to let Eldred go. Gulgnl ought to be around .260 in the Coast Xieague. From all accounts, the work of Rath during the Bees' last stand at home was far below the required standard, despite his wonderful showing: on Salt Lakes first road trip. Blank undoubtedly was forced to ' make the change, and the fact that Rath has been playing; great call at third base, where he will stick for the present, shows that Cliff used rood judgment. Blank Is the big chief of the Bees, and he should know what he is doing but it's hard for one to forget Rath as a second baseman whose record for errorless games caused the whole cir. cuit to rave. Guigni is hitting around .400 In the 12 games or so in which he has par ticipated. Bee Chuckera Left and Right. Left-handers Kellogg and Dougan and Right-handers Klawitter and Piercey compose the quartet of new Bee chuckers. -he Bee boss tossed bloomer during last week's series at Fan Francisco, when he gave Pitcher Kellogg his five days' notice of release. A few hours after informing the big left-hander of his fate, Blank realized that Dougan was still in bad shape, so re promptly reinstated Kellogg. Now there is a chance that the big south Taw may get a fresh start and develop into a winner. Kl-.witer was purchased from the Oaks last week and Piercey. one of the best bets in the league, came a month or so ago from the Yankees. Besides the four new twirlers. Hall, Fittery a.nri Hughes will be with Boss Cliff. Walter McCredie is confident of tak ing the series by a good margin. All of the Portland crowd are in fine shape. Sothoron or Hagerman is billed to oppose "Long Tom" Hughes, of the liees, this afternoon. 1MVACO BKATS DEEP HIVER Home Team l'inds Twirler Davis in Last l'art of Game. ILWACO. Or.. June 18.

The Ethiopian mitt-slinger from Oakland has been for years the trial horse for many promising young sters. Johnson has appeared twice be fore on Portland boxing programmes. He beat Joe Benjamin with compara tive ease and. although his affair with Billy Mascott was declared a draw, ne was entitled to a decision, and only Mascott's game showing prompted the referee to give Billy an even break Joe Bonds is the best heavyweight In the Northwest, and he should win over Farmer Burns, although the lat ter undoubtedly will give the Tacoma mixer all he wants for a spell.

Referee Jim Griffin, after watching the work of Jones for a round and a half, walked over to Moose Taussig, manager of Jones, and warned him that If the latter persisted In holding back his punches he would stop the go and order him out of the ring. Jones did a little better after that and won an easy decision. It's a good way for a fellow like Taussig to get his boy "in wrong" with the public, for boxing fans sour on a boy who fakes. Taussig is too wise a head and Jones too good a boy to get themselves n this kind of stuff.

Guigni, a mere youngster, has contended In only two series or thereabouts, but is hitting at .400 clip. A week ago this "dark- hose" was rated at but .231. Guigni, while ranking higher in percentage than the regular leaders, cannot be granted the full honor as leading bats man until he has appeared In more games.

Normal Roes, the former Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club swimming star, now a member of the Olympic Club, of San Francisco. is making great headway in the various events in the water. Norm, only last week, waa timed in 2 minutes 24 1-5 seconds for the 220-yard dash in the "O" tank. His followers in California consider him a world'o championship contender In the event, which is practically what It will amount to when all the speedy mermen of the country will compete next month In Honolulu. The world's record for the Z.o la only two-fifths of a second faster than that credited to the former Portlander last week. Ross, according to reports from the South, is after Ludy Langer s 500-yard mark. The California state swimming championships are slated for San Diego, in connection with the ex pottlon now going on.

Medicines made from roots, herbs and barks which Na ture has placed at tha disposal of man are better than, strong mineral mix tures.
