For the first time in many moons the Pan Francisco Seals are down among the Coast League "also rans." admiring the sooty scenery and wondering why folk don't recognize them on the streets any more. By absorbing- a brillant 1-0 defeat at the hands of Allen Systematic Sotho ron yesterday the Seals slipped from third nlace into the second division. nd. strangest of all, it required less than 1 hour and 20 minutes for the Beavers to turn the trick, even with a eouthpaw. Curley Brown, doing: the twirling: for the visitors. About 2500 ladies' day fans were out for this, the fastest and snappiest matinee of the current season. Both mound artists were in superb form. Sothoron allowed five hits o b. fluke which hit Umpire Guthrie and Brown yielded six. Bunched Hlta BrlnB Score. Portland won by bunching two of the Fix hits In the fifth inning. With one out Billy Nixon bounced a two-base hit clown the right field foul line. Jack Roche singled through shortstop and Nixon speeded homeward. Biff Schal ler didn't even make a throw as the ball bumped Into a loose fingermitt lying idle on the grass and almost stopped rolling before it reached the outerworks. San Francisco threatened two or three times, but sensational fielding by the Beavers knocked the props out from under their rallies. In the ninth Schaller opened with a single to right field and Bodie followed with a terrific thump against the righi- ' field fence. . It looked like a sure two bagger until Nixon launched himself into the air against the wall and pulled It down. It was a great catch. Ward In Double Play. Chuck Ward, who was back at short. negotiated a couple of double plays around second that notably helped ex tricate Sothoron from his new difficul ties. Billy Southworth likewise pulled pt near-circus catch on a drive by the Cuban. Caivo. in the eighth inning. Robert Vaughn held down second in lieu of Captain Rodgers, who was suf fering from sciatic pains. Jacinto Calvo. the little southpaw outfielder who tried out with Ixs An geles two or three seasons ago, made his initial bow in Portland yesterday and did it with a bang. The speedy Cuban lad pulled a couple of nifty catches and deserved two hits instead of one. Chick Autrey wore t'.ie horseshoes yesterday, however, for the Spsl firststacker won a hit on an in field grounder that struck Umpire tluthrie and bounded back to Sothoron. who threw him out at first base. Seals "Ride" Implre. This fluke base knock filled the bases for the visitors, but Coffey hit to Howard and the inning came to an abrupt end. The Seals "rode" Umpire Guthrie the rest of the game for getting in the way. and, in the ninth, when NixontR throw in from right field also hit the arbiter on the hoof, Harry Wolverton .raucously Inquired why he didn't move his suitcases outside the diamond. Krickson likely will pitch for the Seals today at 3 o'clock opposing W'ynn Noyes or possibly Hagerman.

Pursuant to a five-day notice given Bill Speas last week by W. W. Me Credie, the veteran Portland outfielder, drew an unconditional release yester day, and a deal is now said to be pending between Speas and Manager Wolverton. of the Seals. Manager Wolverton talked with Speas for a few minutes yesterday, and announced that he expected to have another conference within another dav or two. Rudy Kallio. a Portland younsster. who pitched such sensational ball for Great Falls that he was bought by Detroit, Joined San Francisco here yes terday and this brought Wolverton up to the limit. Somebody will have to draw the tin ware ornaments before Speas can be taken on. and it looks as if a blue ticket awaits some Seal during the present series. As a further complication, the Seals have Maispl. an outfielder, oomina from Montreal, and he may be asked to report as soon as the International schedule ends. September 17. Maisel is a heavy hitter, and the Seals could use him to good advantage, with Biff Schaller hitting 20 or 30 points below normal. Wolverton brought Justin Fitzgerald along with him on the trip, but he says Fltz is not quite right yet. "Dutch" Reuther. Spokane southpaw, joined Portland yesterday per previous announcement and worked out lightly. "Dutch" is said to be a heavy stick wielder. and his ability along that line may boost him into the temporary role of utility infielder for the Beavers. W. W. MeCredie expects to receive orders from St. Louis before the end of the week ordering him to deliver Vaughn to the Los Angeles club. If Vaughn goes to the Angels, it will have to be before October 1 under the league rules. Unless he runs across another in flelder. Walter MeCredie may use Reu ther on first base in case of a pinch, thus relieving Ivan Howard for duty elsewhere on the infield. Injured Itacer Improving. WALLA WAILA. Wash.. Sept. 6. (Special.)
