FR0H1E RANKS HIGH
Vernon Pitcher Allows Lowest
Ratio of Hits.
SOTHORON'S RECORD GOOD
Tortlaml Heaver Worked in 388 1-3
Innings, Struck Out 20 7 Batters,
Walked 161 rnd Was Guilty
of Delivering 15 Wides.
. Wlen it comes to a rating on the
basis of average run responsibility per
nine innings and of batting averages
for all opponents. Fromme of Vernon
was about the class of the Pacific
Coast League pitching staffs for 191S.
For Fromme was the only regular
pitcher to finish the season with the
distinction of being responsible for an
average of less than two runs per nine
innings, and it was Fromme among the
regulars who held all opponents to the
lowest aggregate batting average, op
ponents batting only .234 against him
for the year. Fromme was responsible
for 1.94 runs per nine innings.
Horstman of Los Angeles held his
opponents to lower batting averages
than did Fromme, and lSrickson of San
Francisco did the same, but neither of
thesf pitchers saw nearly as much
work during the season as did Fromme.
Ryan Rank Second.
Second to Fromme among the regu
larly worked pitchers of the year
comes Ryan of Los Angeles, both in
run responsibility and in holding oppo
nents to low batting averages. Ryan
held his opponents to a .238 batting
clip- for the year and was responsible
for an average of 2-24 runs per nine
innings. Decanniere of Vernon ranks
between Fromme and Ryan in run re
sponsibility, being responsible for only
2.12 runs per nine innings, but De
canniere was not in the class of prtch
frs who worked over 300 innings for
the year, so he can hardly claim the
right to oust Ryan from second honors.
Eleven pitchers in the league worked
more than 300 innings on the mound
during the season, with Fittery of Salt
Lake safely out in front as the hardest-worked
pitcher of the league. Fit
tery worked an even 401 innings, but
fiothoron of Portland was coming with
a rush at the finish and ended the sea
son a good second with 397 1-3 innings
of work. Prough of Oakland was third
with 388 1-3 innings, and then there is
a long gap to Koyes of Portland in
fourth place with 345 2-3 innings. Ryan
of Los Angeles is next with 333 in
nings; then come Baum, San Fran
cisco, 327 2-3 innings; Fromme, Ver
non, 318.2-3 innings; Couch, San Fran
cisco, 316 1-3 innings; Houck. Port
land, 315 2-3 innings; Piercey, Salt
Lake, 300 2-3 innings, and Boyd, Oak
land, 300 1-3 innings. Portland thus
had three of the 300-inning or better
pitchers; Oakland. Salt Lake and San
Francisco each had two, and Los An
geles and Vernon, the two leading
teams in the pennant race, each had
only one pitcher who worked more than
S00 innings for the season.
Sothoron Closes Strong,
Bothoron's remarkable rush at the
close of the season took him close
enough to give Finery's followers a
scare in the race for season strikeout
honors, but Sothoron just fell short.
Fittery finishing the season with 218
victims as compared with 207 strike
outs for Sothoron.
Noyes of Portland, with 158 strike
outs, and Erickson of San Francisco
with 157 were the nearest that any
other pitchers came to hitting the 200
mark in the strikeout column. Next in
line were Quinn. Vernon, 143; Oldham.
iSan Francisco, 142; Prough, Oakland,
139. and Ryan, Los Angeles, 131.
Sothoron also ran Fittery a close
race for the season's generosity record,
but fell just short of issuing as many
bases on balls as' did the Salt Lake
heaver. Fittery walked 174 men dur
ing the season and Sothoron walked
161. Piercey of Sale Lake issued 140
passes; Houck, Portland, 130; Noyes
Portland, 129; Couch, San Francis
co, 123.
Fittery's wildness also extended to
hitting batters more than any other
pitcher. Fittery hit 24 batters during
the season. Piercey of Salt Lake hit
, -r?y?,n of Los AnSeles 16, Sothoron
of Portland 15.
Of 11 balks called by Coast League
umpires during the 1916 season. G
Johnson of Vernon with two offenses
was the only pitcher charged with

O Too Eomanx I
Flip me the rag and pack.
The world-wide, open track.
The trail, that leads from down to dusk
across the heart, of life;
Only a song to sing
In light heart wandering
By vale and hill and mountainside beyond
Where !s the heart to stay
When the west wind calls "Away"
When the east wind and the north wind
ana the south .wind In refrain
Plead In the early light
Call through the gloom of night
Of byways and of highway through the
sunshine and the rain?
No one to wonder when
I come this way again,
" one to watch and wait for me "when I
have passed beyond;
Xo wefcry tears to shed
Because some dream is dead
Where every dawn shall send its dream
to every vagabond.
Where dull care leaves the mind
Free from the sodden grind
Free as the drifting winds 'that romp by
heather and ty foam,
Whii no .set lamp shall burn
To wait for my return,
Tet each far strand I touch upon shall be
the Port of Home.
Mole fur is said to be the vogue thte
season. But if they are all as hard to
ratch as Maulbetsch. of Michigan, no
wonder the prices are up.
Those who picked Ail-American
baseball teams this season and left
Buck Herzog off the infield merely left
the best infielder in the game out of
the count. Herzog runs third to Cobb
and Speaker for all-around value, and
trailing these two super Sons of Swat
is about the same as not being quite as
rich as John D. Rockefeller.
The Case of Nebraska.
Dear Sir: "Will you let me call your
attention to the University of Nebraska
football team? The Cornhuskers have
not lost a game In four years, and they
have already cleaned up this season the
strong Oregon Aggies. They have
whipped Xotre Dame twice and have
toppled over such husky opponent as
Minnesota and the Michigan Aggies.
The Cornhuskers last Fall, I am con
fident, were fully as strong as Har
vard or Princeton. Chamberlain, last
year's feature with Nebraska, takee
rank with the great players of the
game. In my opinion he was fully the
equal of Mahan. and I saw both play.
These things are mentioned to give
credit to a university that hasn't lost
a game in four years a record that
deserves to be widely known.
C. E. E. (Minneapolis).
What would you say, after the above,
the difference was between Nebraska
University and one of Nebraska's lead
ing sons? Simple enough. One hasn't
lost a start in four years and the other
has never started anything but losses
in 20 years.
SIcGrarT, the Glanta and Brooklyn.
Any number of fans have upheld Ban
Johnson's contention that John Mc
Graw should be harshly treated for
that Brooklyn episode, where he left
the field.
Many of these fans, especially from
Brooklyn, have tossed the keen har
poon our way for suggesting that Mc
Graw also had a side to his case.
Jsuppose McGraw had stuck it out.
making no comment? Who would have
been the official goat? Who would
have been panned and flouted for
"throwing games to hie old pal.
Robby"?
And with McGraw the goat after he
had begged his team to fight its hard
est in this series how quickly would
Ban Johnson and the f ans-at-large
have come to John J.'s help?
The odds are that Ban would have
called on the league to punisn McGraw
for not trying to win from a friend.
McGraw, knowing in advance that he
was going to be "goated" if the Giants
fell down, made a special plea to his
men to do their beet. They did their
worst and all in less than a half
hearted way. Whereupon McGraw
merely let the blame fall where it be
longed as he ducked from under.

The Woodland Club, in Its fight to
have Francis Ouimet reinstated, has
the majority of golfers upon its side.
But the tip that the majority rules in
this country is very frequently bunk.
There isn't one golfer in 20 who be
lieves that Ouimet is a professional.
But how many amateur tournaments
did the Boston star enter this last sea
son? There's where the answer enters.
The Red Sox have been fined for
barnstorming after the world series
ended. But we haven't heard yet that
the Brooklyn club has been fined for
barnstorming during the series. Or
have we overlooked a piece of news?

Gossip of the Gridiron.
GEORGE VARNELL, the veteran
referee of the prominent football
games of the Pacific Coast, is a proud
papa. A daughter was born to Mrs.
Varnell at Spokane Friday morning,
and now "Father" is a popular nick
name for George. He officiated at the
Oregon-Washington game Saturday,
and he will return to Portland In time
to referee the Oregon-Washington State
contest on Multnomah Field next Sat
urday. Those who - witnessed the Oregon
Aggie-Whitman College battle at Cor
vallis last Saturday are saying that it
was the most thrilling affair played
in the Northwest this season. The
Aggies won. 23 to 0, and all the points
were recorded in the third quarter.
The field was in a bad condition and
Ty Cobb in. his famous "fadeaway"
slide had nothing on the athletes at
Corvallis when It came to sliding
around.
The Whitman College team, along
with its coach, Vincent Borleske, wit
nessed the game at Eugene in the aft
ernoon. The Darty returned to Port
land late Saturday night, and early
yesterday morning left for the institu
tion in Walla Walla. They will return
to Portland to play Multnomah Athletic
Club on Multnomah Field November 18.
.
Coach Vincent Borleske, of Whitman,
now can be a member of the "I told
you so" boys, if he wants to. While
in Portland, on his way to Corvallis,
the former Lincoln High coach said
that if the grounds at Eugene were in
a sloppy condition the game would be
a no score affair, which it was, or
otherwise Washington would win, 7 to
0. We Washingtonians stick together.
.
Glenn Warner, coach of the Univer
sity of Pittsburg squad, .has signed a
four-year contract with the school.
Warner Is considered one of the lead
ing gridiron .coaches of the United
States.
.
Robert Woodruff, captain of the De
Pauw eleven. Is out of the game for
the season, specialists having found
him to be suffering with a "dry" knee.
He was elected captain only two weeks
ago to succeed Jack Foote, resigned.
.
The friendliest, yet "fighting" qplrit
existed between . the two teams
at Corvallis Saturday morning, and all
through the muddy battle words were
passed. The best "stunt" of the game
came when George Busch, the fresh
man guard at the Oregon Agricultural
College, was sent in during the third
period. His brother, Frank, is a tackle
on the Whitman eleven. George is be
decked with, a beautiful "13" on his
back, and when he trotted out to re
port to the referee, the Whitman play
ers grabbed him and put mud on his
clean clothes. They then turned him
on his brother, who shook hands, and
the battle was on. Both teams enjoyed
themselves at Eugene In the afternoon.
"Tuffy" Conn showed that he was
not a "flash In the pan." He played
out little Detter than 12 minutes, but
In that time he made runs of 18, SO and
62 yards, scored a touchdown, and oth
erwise made it impossible to keep him
out of the headlines. His 62-yard af-
tair was me return of a punt, and to
do it he passed, dodged and shook off
the entire opposition, and he was
downed on the 10-yard line by one of
the first ones he had ditched, who had
time to recuperate and get ahead of
him.

An Invitation has been extended the

letes remained in Portland yesterday
departing for Seattle late in the after
noon. Coach Gilmour Doble left with

BASEBALL PLAYERS TO FIGHT
"Injury Clause" in Some Contracts
Bone of Contention.
NEW YORK. Nov. 5. That the base
ball players' fraternity is determined
to carry its demand for a revision of
the "injury clause" in certain players'
contracts to a finish, is indicated in a
statement made public today by Pres
ident David L. Fultz. of the fraternity.
The statement says in part:
"Mr. Johnson is reported to have
said in a recent interview that the
fraternity petition accused certain
American League clubs of suspending
Injured players without pay. We made
no such accusation. We stated that
certain contracts gave the owners the
right to so misuse players If they saw
fit.
"Mr. Johnson made a somewhat heat
ed denial of the supposed accusation
and said he had demanded of us the
names of players so suspended. He
has made no such demand. Mr. Her
mann, however, did telegraph for copies
of contracts containing the objection
able clause. We replied that contracts
could not be forwarded without con
sent of the players, but that the pro
vision is In section four of some of the
Washington and New York contracts.
As copies of all contracts are already
lodged in his office, our compliance
seemed unnecessary."

ELECTION " STOCKS
To Professional Wall Sjtreet:
With the rostrum, the street
and the press charged to suffo
cation with hot air, with the
Nation's atmosphere glutinous
with buncombe, with "Wilson's a
trickster," "Hughes a sneak"
only the slogans with "Teddy"
shadow-shuddering the voters
and with Georgie Perkins red-,
herring-tailing the sun, moon
and stars into get-to-cover-quick
Jack-o'-lanterns, it is up to some
one to flag the Street's running
wild mental motor to the fact
that day after tomorrow Horse
Sense, Common and Preferred,
will be up over par again. So
here goes:
It matters not who wins, Wil
son or Hughes.
In past elections the little peo
ple of Stockdom have had no
show. Only market-makers
knew before election what Stock
gambledom was going to do after
Election. The hopper was rigged
to a harvest slant. If election
was to be "good," they set the
nets three weeks before election;
if "bad," their traps two months
before-
But this 1916 Election well, it
is ordained that this war election
year is for the lambs.

PORTLAND, Nov. S. Th northw.atern
disturbance la now central over Suskatche-
All of which is prelude to this
advice bit:
Buy them all day long today in
chunks limited only by your mar
gin. Don't dilly-dally about what
you will buy or what you will
pay. Buy anything, but buy to
day, for the day after tomorrow
will be too late.
If Hughes wins, they will open
10 to 20 points up and mount:
Steel 140, Union Pacific 160,
Anaconda 110, Reading 130.
If Wilson is elected, they will
lull for a day or two and then
climb.
For weeks I have been impor
tuned for an opinion of the Wilson-Hughes
chances. Beyond
answering, "it is sad that the
American people have not the
privilege to make the election
unanimous by sending the
world's greatest public man back
to the White House," I have been
mum. But I hasten to register
. my unqualified opinion of the
Election's effect on prices.
Never before in the history of
stocks has there been like oppor
tunity for everyone to get a hunk
of the good things OUT THERE
, the good things awaiting only
the closing of the ballot boxes
tomorrow.
