DARMODY IS NEW DIRECTOR business Manager of Tigers Says Rules Were Not Violated, as the Books Will Show; Rumor of Heavy Fine Is Heard. LOS ANGELES. Cal., July 13. (Spe cial.) Directors of the Pacific Coast League went into the official session at the Hotel Van Nuys today to investi gate the report that the Vernon, base ball club had been over the salary and player limit the first half of the season. Every club in the Coast League was represented. Tom Darmody, new secretary and business manager of the Vernon club, was present as its official representa tive. He was to be made a Pacific Coast League director. ! Vernon in Limit, Says Darmody. "I have heard many reports about the eVrnon club's being over the limit." said Darmody. "I have been planning to purchase an interest in the eVrnon club for the last six weeks. During that time I have gone over the books of the club and everything is straight. If it had not been I would not have purchased stock in it." In the ante-room of the meeting it wae rumored that the Vernon club might be subjected to a stiff fine. The principal reason for the calling of the meeting was the alleged retain ing of Honus Mitz and Roy Mitchell, when they were supposed to have been unconditionally released from the club. n on Attend Session. A. T. Baum, president of the league, called the meeting to order at 1 o'clock and the following men were present: Henry Berry, of San Francisco; Frank eLavitt. 'of Oakland; Walter McCredie. of Portland; Frank Murphy, of Salt Lake; John Powers, of Los Angeles, and Tom Darmody, of Vernon. It was certain that the salary limit would not be raised, it was learned before the meeting. It was also cer tain that Darmody would be called upon to produce the books of the Ver non club and explain why Mitchell re fused to sign with any other club after being released by Vernon. The directors adjourned the meet ing at 2 o'clock to attend the Vernon Los Angeles game without making pub lic any action which may have been taken. The board adjourned to mset again for a night session, which began at 8 o'clock tonight. Coast League Gossip CHE consensus of opinion Is that Cliff Blankenship tossed a bloomer when he traded Brick Eldred to Seattle for Frank Guigni. Gulgni is seldom being played of late for the Bees and his hitting has been wretched, while Eldred has added new life to the Se attle forces. Tyler "Pug" Cavet, the southpaw of the Mobile Gulls, of the Southern League, established a record in that circuit for consecutive hitting recently. Including the game of June 28, he hit safely in 13 straight games, alternat ing between right field and the pitch er's box. Cavet was with San Fran cisco for a while last year. Pete Standridge, Seal pitcher, has a sister in Los Angeles who is seriously ill. Scout James J. Richardson. F. F. F. V.. of the Beavers, is with the club in San Francisco. He will accompany it to Salt Lake. Harry Wolverton, of the Seals, is looking for another infielder. Billy Orr. of the Bees, is climbing up In his hitting. He has climbed 29 points in the last two weeks. Orr got 10 hits in the Salt Lake-Vernon series and 12 in the session with the Angels last week, and has been bitting well this week. Jack Coffey, who was hit in the head last week by a ball tossed by Wynn Noyes, doesn't seem to be improving as rapidly as was first announced. It will be necessary for the veteran Seal to remain quiet for a few days yet. It's tough to lose an 11-inning battle. It seems that Louie Guisto has lost his cunning. He has only secured two safe blows in each game since getting back in the fray Tuesday. WOMAN SHOOTS MAD BULL ife Saves Her JIusband's Life From Enraged Animal. THIEF RIVER FALLS, Minn., July 9. Mike Zimney, a farmer living east or nere, was saved from being trampled to leath by an enraged bull by the courage and prompt action of his wife.

While she had never at- tompted to use firearms of anv kind she managed to load the gun.and shoot ins animal, stunning him sufficiently to enable her to drag her unconscious husband out of danger. Mr. Zimney was brought to the hospital here for treatment. DRUGGISTS ARE DEFRAUDED Supposed Physician Orders Change Sent Out and Disappears. ' VANCOUVER. Wash.. July 13. (Spe cial.)

MRS. HARRIGAN IN TIE Young Women, Planning to Enter State Tennis Tournarfient This Year, Get Line on Ability. High School Star Third. Mrs. W. L Northup, one of Portland's best women tennis players, yesterday won the round-robin tourney on the Irvington courts after tying with Mrs. F. E. Harrlgan, a final set, going 6-2 in Mrs. Northup's favor, deciding the supremacy. Miss Mabel Ryder, high school ten nis star, was third with 33 fames to her credit; Miss Lily Fox, fourth, with 26: Miss A. Pomeroy, of San Fran cisco, fifth, with 21; Miss Persis Pettis, sixth, with 15; Miss Mildred Wilson, seventh, with 14, and Miss Stella Froh man, eighth, with ten to her credit. Play began early in the morning and continued during the afternoon and brought forth much enthusiasm among the young women who are planning on entering the state tournament at the Waverley courts. Mrs. Northup will be one of the strongest contenders for the title this year and will give Miss Livingstone, of Seattle, champion, a hard run for the honors. Mrs. Harrigan also prom ises to make things interesting. She is playing a stronger game this year than ever before, developing many new strokes and more speed under the tute lage of her husband. Two of the most promising young women players in the city today are Miss Ryder and Miss Pettis, both of whom will enter the state play. Both have a style of game which, if contin ued and developed, will place them in the front rank among the players of the Pacific Northwest, if not the West. Miss Pomeroy, who is a visitor from California at the home of Miss Froh man, has the California stroke pecu liar to all the players of the south and was a welcomed player In the round robin.

TRAINER URGES CARE WILSON COUNSELS ATHLETES TO BE PRUDENT IN TRAINING. Noted Trackman Says Cold Shower Should Follow Worm Bath and Rub Down After Trial. CHICAGO, July 11. Proper care after a hard race or practice road work is as essential as putting on a pair of spiked shoes on a cinder path, in the opinion of Coach Charles H. Wilson, the noted trainer. This is Wilson's counsel: "When you finish your workout it is well to take a good, warm shower bath, finishing with cold water to close the pores to keep from catching cold. This may be followed with a good rub down either by yourself or trainer. Many high school boys yes, even college men seem to think that they cannot prop erly train without a first-class trainer to go over their entire body after they have taken their daily workout. Of course, a rub down by a good man has its advantages, but it is not at all necessary. In fact, some men actually go to sleep on the rubbing table. Al though It will losen stiff muscles and take out soreness, whicJi is the main object, a rub down is not worth 2 cents unless it is taken immediately after the bath before a man gets cold. As I have said before, it is not essential, as a man can rub himself down when nec essary. It may be a little tiresome after taking a hard workout, but, nev ertheless, it will prove a benefit in the long run. "After you have rested a while, eat. Do not exercise immediately before or af tar meals. One is as bad as the other. It hurts your digestive organs. With out a stomach in good working order no man can become a good strong track man. "Get plenty of sleep. I mean by that at least eight hours every night, when you are working hard every day and you are eating crtrefully selected food to keep your body up, but sleep is the most important thing for track men, as one will gain more endurance through sleep than through any other way. Sleep in a well-ventilated room. It need not be very cold, but must be fresh. To sleep in a tightly-closed room ts very hard. You are using much muscle tissue and the waste is being largely carried away through your lungs. This requires plenty of fresh air and to inhale stale air for hours at a time is lust like taking so much poison. Have your room well ventilated and you will awake In the morning with a fine clear head and the desire for more work. "Gradually, as you follow this course of preparation, you will be able to go the full distance, and this brings up the question, how far the boy should run. No growing boy should attempt to run more than a mile. He can do the sprints, the 440, 880 and possibly the mile, but there he should stop. The longer runs are a tremendous strain on a man's strength and are meant to be for a much older person or one who has his full development." The Dalles Water Is Pure. THE DALLES. Or., July 13. (Spe cial.) "A few tuberculosis bacilli would be the most that The Dalles peo ple would drink as a result of cattle frequenting Deer Creek," said J. D. Ro rick, of the Board of Water Commis sioners, today. Mr. Rorick was in formed that Peter Neiderhood. a ranch er on Mill Creek, had reported numbers of cattle and sheep contaminating the city water supply. The Commissioner said the city water supply is now purer than ever, but that the report would be investigated.

ROWDY SEEKING NEW JOB Retiring Manager of Cellar Team Dickering With Phillies, Cubs, Indians and Ked Sox and Kxpects to Lam! Berth. SAN FRANCISCO. July 13. (Special.) Rowdy Elliott's successor as manager of the Oakland ball club will be named as soon as President Frank W. Leavitt has returned from the special Coast League meeting at Los Angeles and confers with Secretary Jack Cook, one of the owners. Elliott's resignation, already in the hands of the club management, has been accepted with the understanding that he will remain in charge until a suitable man is named. From Los An geles comes a statement given out by Leavitt that he is considering several men, among th'em Frank Dillon, man ager of the Angels until he was dis placed by Frank Chance. Cook, at this end of the situation, says that no one has been definitely selected. "I must confer with Leavitt before we do anything." he said, "although we are in a hurry to make a change. I can say this much: We have decided we want no, more playing managers, for we have .experimented enough with them. Also i is an absolute fact that no man who is at present' a member of the Oakland club is being considered for the berth or has been considered. A manager will be named as soon as we can get someone we believe will better conditions." Elliott, meantime, has permission to dicker with major league ball clubs, although his transfer will not be ac cepted until the local magnates are satisfied they will be taken care of. Rowdy has sent out wires to Phila delphia and Chicago Nationals, and the Cleveland and Boston American., and expects an answer shortly. He has reason to believe McCredie recom mended him to Cleveland, and the pros pects are he will land with that aggre gation. LEVINSKY BEATS DILLION BOUT SCHEDULED AS ir.-Hol M. DECISION GO CURTAILED. Boxers Klarbt Ten Rounds Only Because of Small Crowd New Yorker Has Deelded Advantage. BALTIMORE. July 13. Jack Dillon. of Indianapolis, and Battling Levinsky. of New York, light heavy weights fought a ten-round no-declsion bout at Oriole Park here today. The New Yorker out pointed the Hoosier in all but the first and sixth rounds in which Dillon had a shade the better of it and the fourth. which was even. The bout originally was intended to go 15 rounds to a decision, but the comparatively successful attendance brought about a lengthy discussion be tween the boxers and promoters, which resulted in a compromise. It was an nounced the fighters had waived their guarantees and agreed to put up a ten round exhibition with no decision. The men fought somewhat cautiously during the first three rounds. There was some rough work in the fourth session when Dillon forced the fighting and tried for a knock out. Levinsky met him at his own game, however, and both men hit and missed in equal pro portion. Dillon kept trying for a knockout in the fifth and sixth rounds, but Levlnsky's speedy left made him miss many blows. The furious onslaught in the seventh, which was decidedly to Levinsky's ad vantage seemed to give the New Yorker more confidence and the Hoosier was obliged to take severe punishment in the remaining rounds. There were 14 women spectators. Tall and Short Elks to Play. VANCOUVER. Wash, July 13. (Spe cial.) The tails and shorts of Van couver Lodge No. 623. B. P. O.

Oakland broke the long string of defeats today, turned on the Port anders after 11 straight defeats and beat the Beavers In 11 Innings by a score of 4 to 3. "Speed" Martin pitched his first game since he hurt his hand, and in spite of occasional spells of weakness, made a rood showing. Bradley1, a youngster from Cleveland, had a trial as a oatcher and did his share toward turning the tide from the Oaks. For the first half of the battle the game dragged In undeniable fashion and it was only when Portland finally tide for the Oaks. Error Gives Beavers Lead. Kcnworthy's error In the third had given Portland the jump. With one out, Wilie singled, was sacrificed by Vaughn and scored on Kcnworthy's boot of a grounder. Oakland for once came with a rush and the last of the fourth saw the cel larltes out in front Middleton came around in the fifth with the third for the Oaks. Starting with a slfgle. he was sacrificed, took third on an infield out and scored as Kenworthy dumped a slow one to third. Gardner Starts Rally. The rally in the 11th was started bj Rube (Gilbert) Gardner. With no one down, he sent a long hit to left that Southworth fielded in nice style, put ting Rube on first. Barry bunted for 'the sacrifice. Bradley swatted to center to send Rube to the second line of trenches and Berger drove him home with a smash to right that might have gone for a double had that been at all necessary.

After that Johnny was no longer responsible. Concerning the Yankees. The Red Sox proved last season that fine pitching plus a strong fielding defense were enough to beat out a rug ged attack, even one that was led by Cobb. Crawford and Veach. all tearing the cover off the ball. Bill Donovan a Yankees are offering about the same proof this season. They are not lead ing the league on attack by several notches, but they are getting the best pitching in the game, and back of this auperb pitching both infield and out field are helping to roll hack any rival attack. At the start of the season the Yankees, via the dope, were awarded fourth place well back of the Tigers. White Sox and Ked Sox. Today they re the most feared and the most for midable club in the league, despite Harder luck than anv other club has faced. And a club that can stand up under such adverse fortune iesn't very likely to break latntr on when the harder test comes on the next Western. trip. If Wlllard Quits. The rumor is still abroad around the sunbaked landscape that Jesn Wlllard will retire. If this should happen there Is one logical procedure in sight this will be for Frank Moran to face Fred Fulton and for the winner of this bout to take on Jack Dillon. Dillon, having outpointed Moran so decisively, now holds second place to the lnaassive Kansan. Moran and Fulton are the two next in line, ami those are the ones that start the elimination scrimmage. e A Few Late Books. "The Right of Way." by William Donovan. .

He that taketh five shots in a bunker and admitteth to five stroke is greater than he that taketh a city. It Is better to dwell with a brawling woman in a narrow house than with the golfer who describeth every shot around the course. How would you like to be a pitcher, out on the daily job, and have no other men to face but Jackson. Speaker and Cobb? e e Which serves as a reminder that Ty Cobb Is out to pilfer the 100 bases he narrowly missed reaching last year. Ty was intent upon reaching the 100 mark last season. He fell short by three steals. Now, after a slow start, with the season about half gone, he is close upon the 40 mark with at least a chance to smash his 1915 rec ord a record 10 steals beyond the Milan mark of a few years back. . Captain Huston, of the Yanks, being an army man, has always believed in preparedness. What other ball club could lose two of its star outfielder and still have left one of the best out fields in either league?
