(Special-) McCredle trotted another gin ning horse out of his pitching stable today, when Bill Fincher was brought forth. Portland won the game, 7 to 8. Bill had a little lapse In the fourth inning, when Salt Lake made three runs, all of them due to Buddy Ryan's home run with two on. Aside from that inning Fincher allowed three hits, and that was all. The Beavers took: to Tom Hughes In the second inning for four runs and four hits, one of them a homer by Babe Borton. Gus Fisher knocked a homer in the fourth, making a total of three homers for the day. All of them were over the right-field fence, the long est In the park, and were mighty clouts. Bllsa Look Good. Bill Bernhard got some consolation out of the thing, even if he did lose the game. He, too, proved a pitcher. Young Roy Bliss took over Hughes' Job at the beginning of the fifth, and during the remainder of the game he allowed only three hits. The boy showed great speed and a wonderfully quick bend. With Williams on by reason of & walk in the second, Borton knocked It over for the Beavers' first two tal lies. Then Rodgers walked and Hol locher and Fisher singled, the latter to score Rodgers, and Fincher drove . one into center to score Hollocher, netting a total of four.

CLAIM REPORTED LATE Beavers Had No Idea That Young ster Belonged to Salt Lake at Time He Was Taken Over to Honolulu to Train. The Salt Lake Tribune Is exercised to the point of one entire column of type over the Pinelli matter. The Tribune Intimates that Walter Mc Credie knew Pinelli belonged to Salt Lake when he trundled him over to Honolulu; that he colored his inter views in Honolulu regarding the young man's ability, and that he even drafted the telegrams sent by Pinelli to the Salt Lake club after his release by the Beavers. Some true, some false. In any event. It Is a case of tit for tat. Last Spring Salt Lake signed a young Portland pitcher named "Lefty" Owen, took him to camp and put up quite a fight for him. When finally the Bees relinquished title the training season was too far advanced for McCredie to get a good squint at him, so he had to give him an outright release. Contract Given In Good Faith. Evidently Owen had not made much of an Impression on Blankenship, be cause Salt Lake did not step in and sign him when he was freed by Port land. McCredie truly did not know that Pinelli belonged to Salt Lake when his agent In San Francisco sent in his signed contract late in the Winter. As a matter of fact, Pinelli signed with the Bees in September. Curiously, though, Ralph never heard a whimper from the Bees about reporting, so no wonder the kid thought his contract had been overlooked. As soon as the Bees' claim was re ferred to him in Honolulu, Judge Mc Credie spent nearly $5 cabling Presi dent Baum and Secretary Farrell for the straight dope on the matter. When President Baum cabled In re ply that Salt Lake had filed Pinelll's contract on September 27, McCredie gave up the, ghost. Pinelli did not hit a lick on the Is lands and his fielding in the first few games was not such as to bring forth any literary laurel wreaths. He lost the first game by two boots at third base. Later Work Improves. In the last two or three games the lad began coming strong In his fielding and McCredie then expressed regrets at not being able to hold him, particularly in view of the fact that he had spent something like $300 on the youngster's conditioning. However, when the Great Northern reached San Francisco, Walter Mc Credie gave out notice of his release and told the San Francisco newspaper men that Pinelli had not shown him self to be a hitter. Wrhich was true! But Walt did not mention that he gave promise of developing into a wonder ful fielder. Fox? Yes and no! Blankenship hadn't tipped him any dope on Owen and he figured It was up to Bernhard to find out for him self. All that was necessary was to send the kid transportation money from San Francisco to Porterville. Telegrams Not Framed. McCredie had no hand In framing Plnelli's telegrams to Bernhard. Pinelli asked if Bernhard wanted him to re port. After two of these telegrams Pinelli met Buddy Ryan in San Fran cisco and Ryan told him he didn't have a chance to break into the Bees' Infield, as Bernhard had Gislason and Car penter for the utility berth. Bernhard finally came through with a release and McCredie promptly re signed Pinelli. At this writing the Joke seems to be on Bernhard, but unless Pinelli passes the "acid test" McCredie will be the goat. It costs money to feed, clothe and cart around the country a. ball THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAT, APRIL player possessed of a, young wife and a voracious appetite.

The Varsity boys regained tneir batting eyes today and were barely nosed out from a victory over Spokane, of the Northwest League, by a score of 4 to 2.

ANOTHER INDIAN 15 WITH PORTLAND Lynn Brenton Is Newest Cleve lander to Join Beavers, and Glad to Play Here. VERNON FANS MAKE HOWL Fonr-Bnsher" Rale Protested as Lowering Class of Ball, but Ref erence to Record Tends to Disprove Idea, BY ROSCOB FAWCETT. At one time or another Portland has applauded as Its own nearly every member of the Cleveland American As sociation clubs of 1914 and 1915. The newest Clevelander to Join the Beavers Is Lynn Brenton, the little right hand pitcher who piloted Portland to a 9-S victory over Salt Lake Wednesday. Brenton brings the list of ex-Cleveland players who have worn Beaver livery nearly to an even dozen. Look 'em over: Brenton, Bates. Hlllyard, Stumpf, Wiley, Southworth, Nixon, Kahler, Lush. Joe Evans and Carisch. This makes Brenton's sixth season In professional baseball and It should be his best, although for the last three years he has been a big winner for his clubs. Brenton's home la at Peoria 111. He started with Danville In the Three-Eye league In- 1911, and was farmed to WaSsau of the Wisconsin - Illinois league. In 1912 he reverted to Danville and won 12 out of his 20 games. Cleve land purchased his release the follow ing mid-summer, sent him to New Or leans and later transferred him to To ledo. The Toledo franchise -was switched to Cleveland in 1914. giving Cleveland two classes of baseball, major and AA. Brenton won 14 and and lost 11 there that season under Topsy Hartsell. fin ishing with a percentage of .660. In 1915 he started with this same club, but showed such excellent form that the Cleveland Americans pulled him over to the major circuit In June. Brenton twirled in only a few games, winning two and losing three. Cleveland sent him to New Orleans last Spring and he proved one of the best twirlers in the Southern Associa tion. Lynn won 17 and lost 12. "That switch to New Orleans was a deep disappointment to me," remarked Brenton at Marysville a few days ago. "I wanted to come out to Portland wltk Wllie, Nixon and Southworth, and when Mr. Somers notified me that I had been turned over to New Orleans I refused to go. Finally he wrote again and ex pressed regret at my decision to retire from baseball, but said he couldn't do anything better. Of course, I was bluff ing and when I saw my bluff had been called I reported to New Orleans. "I am mighty glad to be with Port land now, and I hope I can be of some service to the Portland ball club." Brenton is comparatively a little fel low, standing only five feet 9 inches high, but he is stocky and tips the beam at 165 pounds. In action he re minds one of Gene Krapp. for he is quick and agile and a lightning fielder. He is 26 years old, an American with out the semblance of a hyphen, and a thorough gentleman. Down in Los Angeles the Vernon fans are demanding a change In the "four busher" rule, requiring the man agers to carry only' two youngsters. The rule has been purposely or inad vertently misconstrued down South to such an extent that many of the fans think the class of ball Is to be greatly lowered by the edict. This Is not true. Most of the players Vernon has sent to the majors in the past few years would have qualified under the "busher" rule. Marty McGaf figan, of last year's club. Is an exam ple. Among those who would have quali fied under the "four busher" rule when they entered the league are: Bodie, Bancroft, Heilmann, Gregg, Rlsberg, Terry, McMullen, Ehmke, Fitzgerald, Couch, Lynn, Martin. Agnew, Lane, Lef ty - Williams, Orr, Fittery, Leverenz, Thomas, Shinn, Seaton. Kuhn, Easterly, Ellis, Kenworthy, Love, Elliott. Olson. Piercey, Noyes, Reuther. Standridge, Gedeon, Ward. Gandil, Gulsto, Cutshaw, Vitt. Zeider, Cravath, Hal Chase and dozens of others. The best drawing cards in the past have been the sensational youngsters like Gregg, Bancroft, Guisto, Coveles kie and players of that stripe, and the Vernon club owners should be wise enough to see it. Allan T. Baum, the handsome and popular prexy of the Pacific Coast League, has notified Judge McCredie of his Intention to be present at the opening of the season in Portland on April 24. The Boosters' Club likely will make him one of the guests of honor. The Seals open against the Beavers. ATHLETIC HEADS Willi MEET Eastern Universities May All Give Up Competition With War Here.

The penitentiary team Is plan ning on placing a strong club in the four-club circuit belrvr organized at Salem. The boys ought to have Louis Gulsto there to knock down the walls. San Francisco is now being spanked severely by several of the Chicago newspapermen who accompanied the Cubs on their Spring training Jaunt throughout the West. The Cubs played miserable ball, losing series to both the Oaks and the Seals, and the San Francisco writers panned them to a queen's taste. Now the Chlcagoans are to the fore that San Francisco gave the Cubs the "hook" because they made headquarters at a hotel in Oakland. ' Detroit's Tigers have a rather savage-sounding name.
