' Pitcher Oscar Theander Harstad may again be a Portland Beaver before the locals depart on their road trip next Sunday night. This and the announce ment from Manager Frank Le Roy Chance, of Los Angeles, that Shortstop Kash, of St. Paul, may join the Angels here this week, were the only two anyway near exciting bits of news that developed while the rain pattered down yesterday. The Vaughn-street grounds were more- suitable for water polo than for baseball, consequently another post poned game, all of which tends to make the head of Judge W. W. McCredie whirl around like a buzz-saw in his ffort to figure when all the put-off tames can be played. Postponed Game Pile Up. Yesterday's postponement will cause the Beavers and Angels to play 10 Frames the week of August 29, when the Angelic choir comes here for their final stand of the season. There will be three double bills In a row then Saturday, Sunday and Monday (Labor day). This series includes double headers next Saturday and Sunday. Today is ladies day, and there will he a game if the sun comes out long enough to dry the turf. The weather man says showers are due to fall to day, but if they are not heavy and the Kround dries a bit, Wynn Noyes for Portland will oppose Jack Ryan on the hillock. Walter Henry McCredie, of the Beavers, intends to give his liingers the acid test this week. He is pre paring for a drive which he hopes will place the Mackmen at the top of the percentage column soon. When Boss Walter turned Harstad over to the Spokane Indians just be fore the club left on Its last road trip, a goodly number of fans thought that he was making a mistake. Oscar came to the Beavers from Cleveland, where he was used last season as a relief pitcher. The year previous he set the Northwestern League afire while chuck ing for Bob Brown's Vancouver club. He was always a slow starter, and looked poor as a Beaver the first few weeks of the season. Since joining the Class B league club he has won something like five and lost one game. In the one he lost, he allowed but two hits. Spokane May Be Drawn On. "Since Willie Mitchell has been turned over to Detroit by Cleveland, I can't figure where we can get a pitcher from the Indians," said Wal ter McCredie last night. "Lowdermilk has refused to come to the Coast, and if Cleveland had any youngsters they didn't figure on using later, Fohl would have shot one of them West before this. If any one of my five regulars fails to deliver in pretty short order. I guess it will be -up to us to get a flinger from Spokane." When asked if Harstad was the Spokane flinger whom he was figuring on, the Beaver chieftain replied: "Hardy couldn't get in shape when with lis. He was always a slow starter. 1 turned him over to Nick Williams, and from the way he has been pitch ing of late, he would certainly aid us. If any of my present staff fall down on me, I'll get Harstad from Spokane Southpaw Rube Evans is another ex Portlander going great guns with the Indians. Evans also may be a Portland twirler again if the Beavers need him. This big chucker has won something like 12 games and lost one since the season started. Shortstop Nash, who belongs to the St. Louis Nationals, Is coming to the Angels from the St. Paul American Association club. Nash hit for an aver age of .243 this season with St. Paul ut they say that he is a great fielder. As soon as Butler gets in shape, Nash will be carried as the -utility inflelder. He will Join Chance either here or in Salt Lake. dians. is an illustration. He was al lowed to go 15 innings in a hard game against the St. Louis Brown Sox before the season was 10 days old, and al though he has pitched a few good games since, he has not been himself. Fohl cost himself a goodly number of vic tories by letting Ed pitch his head off in that long game. A no-hit game, couple of one-hit af fairs and several two-hit games within a span of 10 days in one of the major leagues Indicates that in spite of weather handicaps the season has pro gressed to the point where the pitch ers are beginning to assert themselves, and from now on we may look for a shrinkage in the batting averages. American League teams are in such a tight race that a series is likely to change positions for three or four teams, but close and hard-fought as it is, one can see signs of the gradual lining up into the positions that will be occupied at the finish. Cleveland has proved its class. It may be headed, but the team to do that work has not yet appeared. New York, Detroit and Boston are putting up great fighta. Chicago is gradually steadying in the junior major league. The offense of the Brown Sox may or may not have petered out, but if Fielder Jones can be brought to realize that the tactics of 1906 are not those that win in 1916, the St. Louis team may creep up a bit. Since he broke into the Northwestern League a few seasons ago as manager of the Tacoma Tigers. Joe McGinnity has caused many ditursbances. His most recent row was with Umpire Joe Bush, for which he was fined by President Blewett. McGinnity demanded a meet ing of the directors, who finally cut the fine in half. Joe McGinnity was and is still a great pitcher, but when this is said it lets him out. He be longs to the old school, and seems to think that he is still playing ball in the days when the officials of the circuit could be beat up and driven out of the lot. McGinnity has never been a suc cess as a manager. He never will be, for he is too bull-headed and there is too much rowdyism in the McGinnity system to make him a leader. It will be remembered that McGinnity beat up an old arbiter named Shuster in Port land about three seasons ago. Though a Federal League taint may do a Dad tnmg, it need not act as a bar to polite baseball society, in sup port of which is offered the case of Nick Cullop, who is living down his past, cullop is more than living up to the promise held out for him. In fact, this Spring there were no great predic tions made for him. He was sort of tnrust on the Yanks last Winter in the deal for Magee, and Donovan didn't count heavily on him. But If he came disguised as a gold brick, he is now turning out to be of the Dure metal. With Cullop and Mogridge the Yanks no longer lack good left-handers. John ("Red") Murray, former slug ging outfielder for the New York Giants, is now with Toronto. New York got him from the St. Louis Cards in a deal that sent Catcher Roger Bres nahan to St. Louis, and he was with Muggsy McGraw until released last season to the Chicago Cubs. Tinker gave him his release at the start of the present season. Another St. Mary's Coll starring in the majors is Georire ("Buck") Weaver, of the White Sox. SEATTLE DEFEATS VAXCOTJVEU Eastley's Pitching and Opportune Hitting Bring Victory. SEATTLE, Wash., June 27.

San Francisco failed to score a run today and Oakland, by grouping four hits in the second inning and three in the eighth, piled up four tallies and never was in danger. Spider Baum was yanked in the eighth and Brown, who finished the game, held the Oaks at a standstill. In the sixth inning the Seals bunched three hits, one double, but failed to send a run across the rubber. Score: Oakland I San Francisco B II O A F.

Though mountain-climbing is the Mazamas' specialty, their activities are by no means confined to the mountains. On the contrary, the members some times go to tne opposite extreme, as will be the case with one of their par ties over July 4. One of the scheduled trips of the Mazamas for the three-day period, in cluding July 4. intended for those who do not care to climb Mount Hood, Is journey to the Tillamook beaches. The party will leave over the Southern Pa cine at 1:40 P. M. on Saturday and go to Bay Ocean. Both Saturday night and Sunday night will be spent in their camp at Bay Ocean, and Sunday will be devoted to deep-sea fishing. On Monday the party will hike down the-Coast by way of Cape Mears lighthouse to Netart Bay, where the night will be spent, and on Tuesday the members will tramp Into Tillamook to take the train, ar riving in Portland Tuesday night.

President FarrelL of the New York State League, says that hi instructions to umpires are clear against barring the delivery, but that he can't go behind the umpires' re port as to whether or not the rule against the taboo delivery is being vio lated. The umpire ruled that Ebmka was not violating the rule, and that ends it. Ehmke learned to use the emery ball from Jack Kyan when he was a teammate of the veteran with Lee Angeles two seasons ago. Eddie Hallinan won't be able to get in the game with the Seals if the op portunity presents itself within the next few days. He went chasing alter a high foul recently and bumped up against the wall of the grandstand and has been in the hospital since with a wrenched back. If Pol Perritt, Skeeter Fanning or "Red" Oldham don't round into form pretty quickly for the Seals there will be about three releases handed out and there will be a Nation wide hunt for another boxman. a Ham Patterson has a team at Ver non that is going to be hard to down. His pitchers are going well and there is plenty of hitting strength, as well as plenty of speed- But at that It is hard to see where it is any better in any department than Portland, Los Angeles or San Francisco. The Angela look to have a stronger team in every department save pitching. Chance's heavers and the shortstop position have been his greatest disappointments. The Seals look to be a better balanced club. but will not hit as well, but they have the fighting spirit that brings their hits all up in bunches. Besides, Wol- verton has four pitchers who will hold their own with any quartet In the league. Although Irve Higginbotham has not started well with the Oaks, he is a good pitcher with the proper sort of encouragement. He was the only man McCredie could depend on in the early part of the season. Elliott was mighty glad to get him, and if Hig is not af fected by the happy-don't-care spirit that seems to prevail among the Oak landers, he should be valuable. Cer tainly, he Is a big improvement over the variety of pitchers Elliott has been stalling along with up to the present, Oakland is at the bottom of the heap, which is their customary position at this time of the year. But they are not so hopelessly at the bottom as they were a few weeks back, for the Salt Lake Bees are apparently in competi tion with them for the cellar Job. Blankenship is getting pretty well dis gusted with the failure of his club to win. too, and the ax is apt to start swinging among that Salt Lake bunch almost any old day. When he left Portland Sunday night Blank appeared to think that the club was due for a spurt upward. Catcher Vann seems to be rounding into shape and will divide the work up with Han nah as he has been doing the past two series. But the- one weak spot is the pitching staff, and this Blank does not seem able to help a lot. His big dis appointment of the season was the fail ure of Jack "Warhop to make good. Unless Oakland and Salt Lake take a brace, and take it quickly, they may as well be counted out for the balance of the season, as far as chances of get ting Into the first division are con cerned. But the club every one is be ginning to fear now is Portland. Mc Credie seems to be getting ready for a real drive. JACKSON'S BAT WIIIS Indians Trounced by Chicago, 4 to 2, in Pitchers' Clash.
