LOS ANGELES, Cal., Aug. 16. (Spe
cial.) Los Angeles made it two
straight from the Beavers today by
trouncing them 2 to 1.
Just as Walt McCredie was begin
ning' to see visions of winning a battle,
'.the Argels landed on Sothoron in the
final half of the ninth and put across
the runs that won the contest. After
two wore down Boles, Murphy and
McLarry singled in succession, filling
the bases. Jackson, batting for Zabel,
"walked, forcing over the tieing run,
ani then Maggurt drew another -walk
forcing: over the second run and ending
the game.
For the first time in many moons
the Angels failed to score in the first
inning of their games on the home lot.
But that did not bother them any.
Chance contends that his men can win
just as easy in the last Inning as the
first. This theory was put into prac
tice today and worked out as Chance
predicted.
However, the fans were not disap
pointed by not witnessing the sight of
some one clattering over the rubber
in the opening frame. The Beavers
opened the proceedings by landing on
Horstman in the first inning for their
lone run. Wilie walked and took sec
ond on a. sacrifice. A single by Rodgers
and a long fly by Southworth allowed
the score.
Following the opening inning up
rising, Horstman and Sothoron pitched
high-grade ball and were not in danger
of being scored upon except in the
seventh. In this Inning the Beavers
drew two hits and filled the bases, but
refused to score. Score:

BEAVER CHIEF REJECTS AID
McCredie Wants Xo Men From In
dians, Says Team Is Strongest.
LOS ANGELES, Cal., Aug. 16. (Spe
cial.) Saying that his team is the
strongest in the Pacific Coast League,
Walter McCredie today turned down
the offer of two players from the Cleve
land Americans.
"I can get a pitcher and one other
player from Cleveland," said McCredie
today, "but they wouldn't do me any
good. I have as good a squad as any
in the Pacific . Coast League. The
trouble is that every player on the
club has gone into a slump at once.
"Gus Fisher and Louis Guisto, bat
ters who figure to hit -.300 all season,
have not been hitting the ball at all
during the last two weeks. Roche
caught today, as I am eager to give
Fisher a rest.
"I have decided I will not sell Noyes
and Ward. I will let them go to the draft.
I did not receive a good enough offer
for them from either the Cleveland or
Philadelphia American League clubs."

Coast League Gossip
SAN FRANCISCO boasts the mystery
team of the league. One day it's
in and the next day it's out. Sometimes
it looks like a runner-up for another
pennant, and sometimes its. members
perform in such a bushy manner as to
cause the fans to toss their mitts up
ward and shout for grief.
But with all its backing and buck
ing, San Francisco manages to hang
on to third place. Just when all hope
h?id about forsaken the Seal boosters
last week their team rushed madly
into the final two games against the
leading Angels, registering a double
shutout.
a
Frank Chance and his Angels made a
hurried getaway for Los Angeles after
last Sunday afternoon's game at San
Francisco. The Peerless Leader was
boiling mad. He was not satisfied with
winning the series. He wanted at least
five out of seven, so the double set-
uiiuay rueu ana ruiriea mm.

to keep his Angels on the hustle, but
" "L " "o ijui.cu jus,. Qdiuraajr Wltn
four out of five games his greed was
aroused. He wanted another anyhow.
"That finish took me off my pins,"
w..nii i nun n l w i ounuity s iinai
set-to, for the Angels hung up a string
of goose-eggs in both struggles.
In a desperate effort to bolster ud
his catching department. Del Howard
has annexed Jack Vann, the Bee back
stop. Vann is a good hitter but an
erratic man behind the plate. How
ever, he a worth a trial. Howard will
probably give the drift to either
Walter Cadman or Harold Elliott and
make the newcomer his fist-string
receiver.
San Francisco is a few shades
worse off this week than it was two
weeks ago, when it gained by taking
the series from the Bees.
.The Williams College athletic coun
cil announces that Ira- Thomas, the
veteran of the Philadelphia Athletics,
has signed a contract to take full
charge of the baseball team for the
next five years. He will commence his
duties next February. He has just
completed a scouting trip, visiting all
Northwestern League and Pacific Coast
League cities.
After getting a terrific mauling at
the hands of the Angels in the series
prior to last week, the Tigers came
back strong and battered the Beavers
to a finish. The departure, of Spencer
and the re-signing of Mitze appeared
to have no, effect on the Tigers other
than to speed them up to the form dis
played earlier in the season. The Ver
non pitchers have apparently come out
of their slump, and with that depart
ment going at full speed the Tigers
will always be a hard club to beat. Of
course, the pitchers may get theirs at
Salt Lake this week for in the high
altitude any pitching staff is apt to
get bumped, but when they get to any
of the other Coast League cities err at
home, with the pitchers all right, the
Harnpats will be there all the while.
It stands reason that Vnon w4U
experience some difficulties at Salt
Lake this week. The Bees seem to
i have taken a new: lease of life them-
selves, though beating the Oaks to a
frazzle is no criterion.
The series at Salt Lake this week
should be productive of enough ex
citement to satisfy every Salt Lake
fan and his little brother.
Isn't It the truth that Honus Mitze
can't come back, for he never was
away.
Five more days and the Beavers will
be among us once more. Salt Lake
will be the opposition.
Scout James J. Richardson, of the
Beavers, will leave on an extensive
road trip next Monday morning mak
ing the Eastern Oregon and Idaho ter

Portland Boxing; Notes
FRANK KENDALL has been offered
the date of September 13 for a bout
at Baker. Or., during the fair there,
which opens on that date. Joe Bonds,
of Tacoma, is to be his opponent in a
10-rounu tilt. The Baker Commercial
Club has offered lte assistance. J.
Jennings is the promoter. Kendall will
decide whether or not he will accept
the offer after Ills bout at the Rose
City Athletic Club next Tuesday night
with Willie Meehan. of Ban Francisco.
Frank N. Hanlln arrived In Portland
yesterday. He signed Muff Bronson
and Frankte Sullivan to box 10 rounds
Labor day, September 4. at Astoria,
which is during the Regatta. He is fig
uring on getting "Toughy" Wing and
Alex Trambitas to box a six-round semi
windup. Although Bronson had several
offers for the Labor day date from
Bend and several other places, as veil
as a local offer, Joe Flanigan. who
looks after his matches, decided in fa
vor of Mr. Hanlln because of the
friendship existing between him ana
Astoria's Jimmy Coffroth. Mr. Hanlin
will leave for home tomorrow.
Muff Bronson boxed the last three
rounds of his bout with Joe Benjamin
at the Rose City Club Tuesday night
with a dislocates! thumb. He did welf
to win as far as he did over the Sso
kane lad, considering conditions. If
"Young Jack" Johnson's head was
pointed In front he would look for all
the world like Young Peter Jackson.
The New Orleans lad's dome is pointed
In Back. He deserved the decision ren
dered him over "Farmer" Burns.
Billy Nelson was a pretty tired Indi
vidual at the end of his tilt with Jack
Allen. He received the draw decision
with pleasure. "Toughy" Wing should
have really finished a little fellow like
Sammy Gordon and it discredits the Al
bina boy to allow the little Hebrew to
get a draw with him.
Muff Bronson and Joe Flanigan left
last night for MarshfieW, Or., where
the local schoolboy will clash with
Billy Nelson ovr the 10-round route
August 25. Nelson plans on leaving
tonight.

GIVES REPLY A
NICK
McGinnity's Charge of Tam
pering With Player Denied.
SPOKANE MANAGER ANGRY
Williams Resents Suspicion That He
Induced Frank Gnignl to Strike
Out With Bases Full Before
Being Transferred.
After Infieider Frank Giugni, former
Salt Lake pastimer, was signed by Spo
kane in the Northwestern League alter
having played with Butte- for a short
while. Manager Joe McGinnity, of the
Butte Club, charged Nick Williams,
former leader of the Portland Colts
and now at the helm of the Spokane In
dians, with' tampering with Giugni be
fore a game between Butte and Spo
kane at the latter city Saturday, Au
gust 5. persuading Giusrni to strike out
when the bases were loaded.
Nick Williams' many friends her
will be interested in reading his state
ment which has Just been issued in
Spokane. Here it is:
"The contemptible charge that J. J.
McGinnity has made atcainst me of
tampering with Giugni, thereby induc
ing him to strike out with three men
on bases in the game of August 5.
in a way does not surprise me. Base
ball is undoubtedly the cleanest sport
in existence. By making such a charge
not only does McGinnity cast a black
eye upon the game by which he is mak
ing his bread and butter, thereby cut
ting his own throat, but he also cast a
personal insult upon Frank Giugni. my
self and also upon the Spokane base
ball public,' who pay their money to
see ball games played on the square.
Charge Is Resented.
"If the argument that when a man
strikes out he has been tampered with
by the opposing manager would be al
lowed to stand, I certainly must hav
been a very busy man the night of
August 4. Perhaps with Outfielder
Johnson, who struck out five times on
the following day: possibly, also, with
Mr. McGinnity, who, if I remember cor
rectly. Injected himself into the fray
In the ninth inning and took three very
sickly swings at Dutch Reuther's of
ferings, then retired to wash out his
throat. There must have been some
overtime on that night for me to indue"
15 strikeouts for the following day. If
I ever thought that I could produce
such results with my tongue I would
certainly leave the baseball business
and enter the field of politics.
"The facts are as follows: Upon
learning that the Butte club could not
use Giugni, I telegraphed the Salt
Lake club asking whether I could
have him in the event Butte could not
use him. I got an immediate reply
from the Salt Lake club that McGin
nity would turn him over to me.
Promise la Told of.
"I thereupon asked Secretary Red
path of the Butte club, just before the
Saturday game, whether Butte desired
to keep Giugni, and if not, when I
could have him. Secretary Red path
then told me that Butte had telegraphed
the Salt Lake club two days previous
that Butte could not use Giugni and
asking what dlsposiion to make of him"
and that they had received an answer
advising them to turp Guigni over to
Spokane.
"He also informed me plainly that I
could have Giugni after that game. The
next day Redpath denied absolutely
ever having told me that I could have
Giugni after Saturday's game- I should
have been surprised. However, as I
have said before, I refuse to be sur
prised at anything McGinnity and Red
path attempt to do.
"If McGinnity, by this charge against
Giugni and myself, thinks he will get
away with something, he has another
think coming. The pity of it ail tu
that there may be a few fans in Butte
who believe him, but at that there will
probably be only a few, because he
can't pull the wool over everybody's
eyes with his 'coarse line of stuff.' All
the rest of the league who know him
and his tactics are laughing at him.
"Also, if I had been tampering with
Giugni and felt reasonably sure that he
would strike out In a pinch, why was
it that I instructed Pitcher Rube Evans
to walk him purposely when Giugni
was put in as a pinch hitter in the Sat
urday game which followed? And as
for myself, I want the world to know
that if I can't win the pennant on the
square I don't want it at all."
