Southpaw Walter Kinney took over his task after Boss Howard batted for him and receipted for the licking.

If the Red Sox follow the same trail they have blazed for the last two sea sons against Detroit, Chicago and later Philadelphia, they will drop the open ing contest and then bag the next four, or four out of the next. It has been a Boston habit to lose the first game of an Important series and then return with a aeries of winning drives until the last enemy lias been blown from off the reservation and the road is open to the Far East or the Far West or anywhere they care to go in order to collect 60 per cent of the kals. Recent Series 5-Game Affairs. It has been four years now Blnce a world series ran beyond five games. In 1912 the Red Sox and the Giants floundered along through eight con tests before the Giants blew up with a terrible racket back of Matty, but since that date the big jubilee has been closed out yearly In what is known as Jig time, whatever Jig time is. " So it is about time for operations to be extended beyond the five-game span, the recess depending largely upon the ability of Mr. Marquard and Mr. Coombs to collect at least one game in Boston from Mr. Leonard or the equally able Mr. Ruth.

It would be hard to find three more dependable pitchers than Leo nard, Shore and Ruth, and three pitch ers for a short series are all that any ball club needs. If Leonard works to day he will not be needed again until next .Wednesday, as much rest as he could use and still be right. Red Sox Advantage Noted. This prevalence of Red Sox south paws is one of the toughest breaks against Brooklyn s hope. For Brook lyn's three leading sluggers are Buck W'heat, Jake Daubert and Casey Sten gel, all left-handed maulers, and for these three to be fed constantly upon southpaw gunnery brings about a han dicap from the start. It is a bit difficult to picture a flock of left-handed hitters whaling away successfully at such great left-handed pitchers as Babe Ruth and Dutch Leonard. Dutch and the Babe are haru enough for the right-handed gentry, As against batsmen of their own southpaw proclivities, they have been weil-nlgrt lnvinclole. Brooklyn will enter this series in better shape for pitchers than Phila delphia began her campaign with year ago. History May Be Repeated.

PRACTICE GOOD NOT SHOWX California Coach Goes Back to Rudi mentary Stages. UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, Berkeley, Oct. 6. (Special.) The first secret practice of the season was held for both the varsity and the freshman football squads this week.

The heavy guardian of the initial sack for the Mackmen tore some ligaments loose at the joint of his throwing arm in last Tuesday's game.

Thursday he became frightened at the pain and went to a Portland osteo patch. who made the discovery. Walt McCredie has advised him to stay here where he will have the arm doctored. Ivan expects to join the team in Los Angeles October 17. He witnessed yes terday's game from the grandstand.

KLICKITAT RACES ARE GOOD Four Heats Necessary In 2:t5 Face and HI Ho Wins. GOLDENDALE, Wash., Oct. (Spe cial.) The racing programme at the third day of the Klickitat County Fair was the best of the meeting. Four heats were necessary to decide the 2:15 pace in which Hi Ho landed the money Kittitas Bum, a non-winner at the Branwerki Chandleries and Found ries Expected to Result From Shipbuilding Industries. V The day of Portland's supremacy is not tar distant, according to J. R, Bowles, president of the Northwest Steel Company, who spoke at a lunch' eon of the Portland City Club, yester day. Extensive enlargement of all Indus tries allied with shipbuilding is one of the features of the development which Mr. Bowles expects to take place here within a few months. The building of the large ships which are now under way at the plant of the Northwest Steel Company Is merely a primary im pulse to activity here, he maintains. and many demands which the ship building industry will create are to result in the co-ordinate growth of other plants. Brass works, chandleries and found ries are among the enterprises which Mr. Bowles expects to see started in Portland soon. The encouragement of such industries is a work which Mr. Bowles recom mended especially to his hearers, say ing that many manufactured goods used aboard ship could as well be pro duced here as shipped in from other coast cities. The employment of many mechanics and other workers was pointed out as one of the benefits to be derived by Portland from tho shipbuilding in dustry. While 600 men are employed now in the plant of his concern at the opening of the Spring activities there are to be at least 2000 workers. CENTRAL MILLMEN OPPOSE REDUCTION Rate Change Sought by West Coast Lumbermen's Asso ciation Is Resisted. OLD TARIFF HELD UNFAIR Eastern Manufacturers Declare Con dition Which Prevents Them Entering: Into Competition Equivalent to Subsidy. Manufacturers of lumber In Iowa and Wisconsin yesterday laid before Ex aminer Dlsque, of the Interstate Com merce Commission, their vigorous ob jection against the proposed reduction in the rate on sash and doors from the Pacific Coast to the territory east of Buffalo. N. T. It was the second day of the hear ing -undertaken by the Commission in response to the complaint of the West Coast Lumber Association, the Cali fornia Redwood Association and other sash and door manufacturers on the Pacific Coast, against the recent can cellation by the carriers of the through rates. W. D. Clumpner. traffic manager of the Oshkosh Traffic Association, of Oshkosh. Wis., was the principal wit ness yesterday for the manufacturers in what is roughly denominated the "Mississippi Valley territory." Mr. Clumpner insisted that the rates on sash and doors, previous to the cancellation against which the Coast mills are complaining, have seemed un justly discriminatory against the manu facturers in his territory. We always have felt, he asserted, that the rates constituted a sort of subsidy by the carriers." The Mississippi Valley mills, about three years ago, entered a protest against the alleged discrimination and the case was heard by the Commission, through an examiner. In Portland. The Commission ordered a readjustment. Out of that readjustment grew a cancella tion of the through rates from the Pa cific Coast to the territory east of Buffalo. The Coast mills protested before the Commission against the Eastern car riers and asked for a restoration of the through rates. The Mississippi Valley mills intervened. Box Shook Witness Heard. Mr. Clumpner declared that If the Commission restores the rates as prayed for by the Coast mills, the Mis sissippi Valley manufacturers will be in the same position that they were in before the through rates were canceled. He emphasized, too, the fact that his clients are heavy purchasers of rough lumber from the very mills that now are trying to deprive them of a chance to do business in this Eastern terri tory. A group of 21 manufacturers at OshkOBh. Fond du Lac, Merrill, La Crosse. Wis.; Rock Island. 111., and Clin ton. Dubuque and Muscatine, la., in the year 1914 bought an aggregate of 2737 carloads of lumber from the Coast mills, he asserted. Similar purchases have been made in other years. The examiner yesterday also heard one witness C. H. Watxek. of the Crossett-Western Lumber Company, at Wauna in the case brought by the box shook manufacturers on the As toria branch of the North Bank road against the O.-W. R. Sc. N. Company for a reduction in the box-shook rate to points south of Pocatello. The rate from Portland, from the Willamette Valley and from Western Washington points Is 37 cents. From the Astoria line It is 40 cents. The complainants assert that the Commission's order In the historic Astoria rate case compels a like reduction. The witness said that 75 per cent of his business goes Into the affected territory. v4 i5 5 5 Boys!

Motion to Dismiss Case Is Filed by Wallace HcCunut Again and Will Be Heard Later. The disappearance of Clark M. Moore, general sales manager of the Oswego cement plant, with offices at Denver, when an order was obtained from Judge Wolverton in the Federal Court for the Issuance of a subpena for htm. was the principal development of inter est yesterday in the "cement trust" case. Coy Burnett, attorney for Ama Moore, the plaintiff In the fight against the cement concerns, appearing before Judge Wolverton, argued that If the subpena must be issued only through securing an order from the court, the desired witness would be warned and would dodge service.

Smith attorneys for the plaintiff, appeared with Mr. Burnett in court yesterday.
