The Oaks although outhit by the Beavers won at homo In the morn ing, 3-2, but lost in the afternoon on this side of the bay, 6-3. The after noon game was wrecked in the first inning when Harry Krause issued two passes and was found for three hits, which scored three runs and left two runners on the bases. Sammy Beer relieved him and after Betting by the first round he pitched pood ball, the only run scored off him being- due to a wild throw by Danny Murray trying to break up a double steal. Penner was wild, and the Oaks had a chance as long as he was pitching, but Brenton went on the job in the fifth and stood the Oaks on their heads, allowing only one hit. Warrpn Adams, first baseman, nlaved his first game for the Oaks and got a bit his first time up, but he spoiled, a chance for a rally by getting nipped off first base when a hit and run play failed to go through. Eddie Mensor scored all three of Oakland's runs in the morning game. Houck was wild but hard to hit.

HOLLOGHEB IS STAR Speedy Shortstop Has Many Plays at His Call. 1916 FIELDING MARK .960 Beaver Likely to Have Xame Placed With Otlier Clever Players Turned Out by McCredie. Oaks Follow Seals Here. Walter Henry McCredie apparently has repeated his stunt of uncovering a fielding sensation for his short patch. Charley liollocher. the man in ques tion, is all over his side of the dia mond, and even finds time now and then to sprint over and shake hands with First Baseman "Babe" Borton, say reports received while the Beavers have been on their first three weeks' road trip. Last year "Chuck" TVard was thought to be about the last word in fielding. And now comes Hollocher, a shortstop of an entirely different type, yet one who has just as many plays at his call as "Chuck " had. Charley s fielding has been nearly perfect since the start of the season and he promises to hit bet ter than his predecessor. Hollocher always has fielded well. He startled the natives at Keokuk in ,1915. his first year out, and last season made only 21 effors in 89 games for an average of .960, with the Rock Island Club of the Three-Eye League. In those 89 games he handled 628 chances. Hollocher also hit well in the Class B league, smiting the pellet for a .289 mark. With Portland in 14 games before being sent back to Rock Island, Hollocher's fielding mark was .895. He made, four errors in 14 games. The name of Hollocher may go down with the rest of the famous shortstops turned out by McCredie Ward Pltts- burg), Dave Bancroft (Philadelphia Na tions), Ivan Olson (Brooklyn), Roger Peckinpaugh (Yankees) and Bill Sweeney. Bill Stumpf s rheumatic underpinning Is as strong as ever. Trainer Wells told San Francisco sporting writer. Bill is ready to take anybody's job at any time the place is empty. For a time last year the McCredies despaired of Stumpf b getting into play ing shape. Bill, however, took it upon himself to cross the McCredies up, and is moving around the field as fast he ever did. The passing of Catcher lion Louis Sepulveda. brings the Seals' squad with in two of the player limit. Wolverton must make a choice be tween Lefty Dougherty and O'DouL Dougherty failed to report in time to get into condition with the rest of the squad, and until he rounds into form, Harry can hardly be asked to pass judgment upon the pitcher's abil ity. It is said that Ollie O'Mara, the little shortstop who got off on the bad foot when the Oaks opened the season, re sembles MarCTn McGafflgan, of the Ver non 'lb squad, who is now with the Phillies. Ollie will challenge anybody or anything on a moment s notice and always manages to have the last word. It is being predicted around San Francisco and Oakland that as soon as Catcher Kilhulen gets his broken flnge back in good shape. Callan will be chased. Danny Murray is doing prac tlcally all of the backstopplng work. Kilhulen broke his finger in a game with the University of California be fore the opening of the season and th injured digit is just coming around. Oakland comes here, following the series with the Seals, which commences tomorrow. John J. Higglns, vice-president of th fortiana Baseoail Boosters, will ar rive with the Beavers from .'3an Fran SCENES AT OPENING OF MAJOR LEAGUE SEASON Cisco tomorrow. Johnny has been In California visiting his folks and at tending to business on the side. He will assist Grand Marshal Barkhurst In running off the parade tomorrow.

April 25. This Oregon mist Is getting tiresome, but has little effect on true motorboat "fan." The committee has lined up a good entertainment. with good tobacco to back it up. The title of the club paper has been decided upon as the Motorboat News, with Gun Gade as business manager, Martin Shea. Jr., as social editor and Otto Hoffman as advertising manager. The new periodical is to be made an interesting method of keeping the members informed as to club doings. and will have special articles from time to time by the club members. Frank Mathiot has proved himself the champion cartoonist of the club; at least, until Friend Gade shows evi dences of superior talent. Frank's latest attempt now adorns the walls of the poolroom, and apparently be longs to the cubist or futurist school of artistic crime. Captain Williamson busily is en gaged in the overhauling of the raised deck cruiser Dorothy, ex-Mist. A dy namo and battery are to be installed for lights in the cabin and on deck, and the interior rearranged. The cap tain and his daughter' will spend a great part of the Summer on the boat. and she is to be put in first-class shape. Williamson is a red-hot water sport and an enthusiastio member of the club. The good ship Auto Marine. Captain Herron, has been equipped with a set of side curtains and a top. Herron uses his boat in all weathers, and a dry cockpit is a mighty attractive fea ture during this rain. If you don't believe it, sit out in the mist in a fast runabout some day. Captain Fred Vogler, of the Vogler Boy family, was discovered busily en gaged in measuring the boat slip in the Wanderlust House one day last week. A man has a perfsct right to measure his own boathouse, of course, but it sure looks like a neW cruiser for Fred. Read the Oregonlan classified ads.
