Cleveland Closes Purchase of
Star First Baseman of
Portland Team.
CUBS ALSO MADE BID
ffwo Players, Pitclier Lowdermilk
and Third Baseman, Will Join
Beavers at Once Guisto to
Remain Till Season Ends.
After numerous conferences and
frenzied palaverings on the part of sev
eral big league representatives, Louis
Guisto, Portland first baseman, was
sold yesterday to the Cleveland Ameri
cans for a price in cash and players of
approximately $11,009.
E. S. Barnard, Cleveland club offi
cial, agrreed to the terms offered by
W. W. McCredie during yesterday's
bail game, and the parties to the trans
action met last night and drew up and
signed agreements.
Scout Raises Offer.
By the terms of the protocol, Port
land is to receive seven ballplayers,
valued at approximately $1000 apiece,
and -while Judge McCredie refused to
divulge the amount of the bullion in
volved, it is believed to be In the
neighborhood of $4000.
Scout Barnard originally offered
three players and some cash, but final
ly conceded the additional playing tal
ent. Guisto, of course, will not report to
Cleveland until next Spring, but not so
with all of the seven coming from the
Indians. Two of these Grover Low
dermilk. a big pitcher,, and Joe Evans,
a third-sacker are to join the Beav
ers immediately. Lowdermilk has
agreed to the transfer and should
strengthen the Beavers immensely for
the final dash down the homestretch
this Fall.
Evans to Report at Once.
Evans, the other Clevelander booked
for immediate delivery, is a youngster
from the medical department of the
University of Mississippi. He joined the
Cleveland American Association club on
their Spring training trip in 1915 and
beat Ray Bates out of his position.
He went so well that Cleveland, re
leased Bates outright and placed Evans
n third. When "Walter McCredie
signed Bates he was a free agent look
ing for a meal ticket.
Final consummation of the Guisto
deal was a big disappointment to
Scout T. F. O'Hara, of the Chicago Na
tional League club. O'Hara wanted
the McCredies. to give him an option
on the big St. Mary's lad until Sun
day night. He seemed not a little put
out when informed last evening that
Cleveland had landed the Portland
pride.
"I have just telegraphed headquar
ters in Chicago advising them that we
have lost out on Guisto and asking for
instructions," said the Irish represen
tative of Joe . Tinker. "They may ad
vise me to go to San Francisco if they
have anything to be looked over down
there. If not I will leave Sunday night
for Seattle."
Coast League Gossip
THE Pacific Coast League long has
been a feeder for the National
and American League and is now right
in line to send a lot more players up
to the big show. According to pres
ent indications the managers will be
left "starless" again next Spring. De
troit has exercised its option on Pitcher
Johnny Couch, of the Seals. "Ping"
Bodie will be wearing a major league
euit next 'Spring. Duckey Jones prob
ably win be sold before the draft rule
goes into effect.
Oakland is sure to dispose of Pitcher
'Speed" Martin. Billy Lane appears
to be another lad sure of a ride back
to the other side of the Rockies.
Louis Guisto is dead sure of going
Kast. Wilie, Ward and Noyes are other
Portlanders who stand a good show
of going to the majors. Vernon, Los
Angeles and Salt Lake are going to
suffer, too. "Swede" Risberg goes to
the White Sox, Oscar Horstmann to
some major league club and it's odds
on a bet that Pitcher Paul Fittery
will be taken over by the Yankees,
while some reports have it that some
of the clubs are dickering for Catcher
"Truck Hannah.
Nobody can blame the Coast League
managers for selling the stars in order
to beat the draft game. Now is the
time for our managers to get busy
and comb the brush for likely young
sters. Los Angeles has a top-notch aggre
gation of ballplayers, and holds its
high position largely through the abil
ity of its pitchers to hold their op
ponents down while the batters are
driving in runs before them. Yet the
Angel twiriers have handed but few
doses of shut-out poison. Only five
times have Loo Loo heavers shut out
opposing teams up to the series which
commenced this week. Here is a list
of the shut-outs scored by Los An
Keles heavers, named in the order of
their occurrence up to this week's
aeries and showing the hits alloweo.:
Horstmann 2, Seals 0; 1 hit. Zabei T,
Oaks 0: 6 hits. Ryan 3. Tigers 0: 6
hits. Horstman 2, Tigers 0; 4 hits.
Horstman 1, Oaks 0; 6 hits.
.
Since returning from Portland to
San Francisco, Shortstop Jack Coffey,
of tho Seals, has been overcome by
heat on a couple of occasions. He
was compelled to quit in the second
inning cf la-t Tuesday's game against
Salt Lake. Bodie finished at short and
delivered nicely as usual. He is prob
ably still suffering as the result of be
ing hit on the head by that bean ball
which Wynn Noyes. of the Beavers.
threw on the morning of July 4 at1
Oakland. Reports from the Bay City
indicate; that Coffey looks pale and

was beaten by the Detroit Tigers to
day, 5 to 2. It was the eighth straight
defeit for the Easterners. Shawkey
pitched a beautiful game, but two wild
throws by himself and one by Bauman
coat him five tallies. Dubuc, like
Shawkey. pitched well and fielded
badly. He was forced to retire at the
end o" the eighth, the intense heat
overpowering him. Artie Hoffman, of
the old Chicago Cubs, made his de
but with the Yankee togs and got two
hits, besides stealing a base. An un

BY ROSCOB FAWCETT.
Byron Houck. who was tho victim
of a l-to-0 defeat by the Seals & few
days ago, wreaked vengeance on the
Oaks yesterday by shutting them out
on five scraggly hits the fourth
goose-egg game of the present series.
Score Portland 6. Oakland 0.
To appreciate Houck's prowess fully
one should know something biogra
phical. Houck began pitching when
he was seven. He could pitch hay
with one hand, milk 12 cows with the
other, and run a creamery treadmill
with his feet
On a dally diet of two gallons of
buttermilk Byron in time became a
big league pitcher. He broke in as a
star with the Philadelphia .world's
champions. A3 a natural sequence to
affluence Houck soon drifted to golf.
became wild, started down grade, and
here he is back in the minors with
the Beavers.
Honck's Control, PerfecC
Wherefore only one conclusion can be
forclped from Byron's showing; yester
day. He has given up golf. His con
trol was perfect. He was unbeatable.
Three Oaks reached second, but nary
an acorn perambulated as far as third
base. The former Oregon athiete
looked decidedly sweet to the 2000
ladies' day fans In the stands.
Del Howard started Ray Boyd
against Houck. Del yanked him in
favor of Southpaw Burns in the fourth,
with the score 3 to 0 for Portland.
Toward the close Manager Howard
also sent in a couple of recruit.
catcher and outfielder, figuring to rest
his regulars as much as possible for
another day.
Close Decision Aids.
Wilie really started the Oaks down
grade by stealing home on Boyd in
the initial inning. Boyd walked Wilie.
and two infield outs put him on third
base. Suddenly, without one quarter
the fuss that attended the dash of the
Deutschland. Wilie wound up his legs
and sailed in to the plate.
Although the decision was close um
pire Brashear gave it to Wilie and
Portland was off to a 1-0 start.
In the second, Gulsto's single through
short, the first of Kisher's two bag
gers and v ard s sacrifice added an
other. Hits by Vaughn and Southworth
made it 3-0 in the third, and marked
the farewell of Boyd.
After singles by. Houck and Wilie
in the fifth. Burns overthrew first base
and permitted Houck to score and
Wilie to perch on third. Rodgers'
single sent Wilie across, making two
for the inning.
Bobby Davis In Game. -
Pouthworth's single to center and
Fisher's two-base swat against the
right field fence registered the final
tally in the eighth inning.
Bobby Davis appeared in his old
niche at shortstop for Oakland, and
signalized his return by pulling a couple
of circus plays. Joe Berger, who has
been playing regularly at short, showed
up with a black eye. Whether he
bumped into a doorknob or got in an
argument with somebody as to whether
there were live peanuts or six in the
bag could not be ascertained.
