McCredie's men spun two run in the fourth and thl was sufficient. They scored another in the seventh. . The Angels had several chances to score but did not avail themselvs of the opportunity. They had nine men left on bases. Meusel did most of the hitting for the home guards with a double and two singles, but he batted so far apart that he was' unable to bunch his hits. His double came in the sixth with nobody out. Two demon stops by Hollocher prevntd a run. Hollochr rcivd a hand when he returned to the bench. The Beaver shortstop sot three hits. Both sides played errorles ball with one exception. In the seventh Farmer picked up Meusel's Texas Laguer and threw the ball into right ield.

PUMFING SYSTEMS USED Individual Farms Plants on Irrigated Have- Advantages. WASHINGTON, May 19. The use of Individual pumping plants on irrigated farms has many advantages and few drawbacks, says an article on this sub ject in the new year-book of the United States Department of Agricul ture, and the area in the country irri gated in this way is increasing. If farmer has a dependable supply of water and a well-designed and properly installed pumping plant, he is sure of being able to give his crops the water they need when they need it. The rel Ative cost of individual pumping plants and the gtavity supply of water is, of course, a factor of the utmost impor tance, but in many instances it is now cheaper for a farmer to pump his own water than to buy it delivered by a ditch by gravity. Mechanically, it is possible to pump water from greater depths and in greater quantities than commercial considerations always make profitable. The amount of money that, from i business point of view, it is wise to ex pend on a pumping system can not. therefore, be stated unless all the con ditions which determine the expense of pumping and the price of the result lng crops are Known. in the paper already mentioned. It Is said that first-class pumping plant, including the well, with ample capacity to irri gate 160 acres or average forage crops, may be installed at a cost of from $5000 to. $7000. A plant with a smaller SHUTQI capacity requiring the use of a reser-1 voir may be installed for $2000, with $500 or even J1000 additional for the reservoir. The choice between a pumping plant of large 'capacity without a reservoir and one of smaller capacity with a reservoir is largely a question of the comparative cost of the larger equip ment and of the reservoir. In apply ing irrigation water, a very small stream can not be used to advantage. Where only limited areas are to be ir rigated, therefore, it is customary either to install a pumping plant ca pable of delivering snore water than is absolutely necessary, or else to use a smaller plant with a reservoir, in which the water can be accumulated until an economical stream is available. As the farmer must pay interest on and, to a large extent, depreciation on his investment, whether the pumping plant is in continuous operation or not, he- can frequently save money by in stalling a comparatively small pump and keeping it in more or less con tinuous operation. The three types of pumping plants principally used for irrigation are the plunger or cylinder pump, the centri fugal pump, and the air-lift. As a gen eral rule, says the article in the year book, the plunger type of pump is well suited for lifting quantities of water from 100 to 500 gallons per minute from depths beyond 50 feet. For quan tities of from 500 to 2000 gallons per minute at greater depths than 50 feet, the vertical centrifugal pump is bet ter suited. In installing a pumping plant, mas sive and well-built foundations are necessary for proper operation. Weak foundations permit vibration and! con sequent loss of power and unnecessary wear and tear on the machinery. Con crete, thoroughly mixed, and composed ordinarily of one part of cement to two parts of sand and three parts of gravel, is the best material. Another point of Importance is to see that the feed water in the engine-cooling system contains no sand or sediment. For the belting used in driving the pump, four materials are in common use leather, rubber, canvas and composition. Of these, leather is to be preferred for dry, arid climates, but composition wears as well and it is not affected by moisture. Its cost is approximately that of leather. In conclusion, P. E. Fuller, the au thor of the article in the yearbook, points out that in comparing the cost of an individual pumping plant with water supplied by gravity, the cost of ditch-cleaning, maintenance, cultiva tion to keep down weeds, and other factors make the difference in expense between the two systems less than one would at first imagine. Where electric power is available, this largely elimin ates the factor of operative labor, and a cost of two cents or even) more per kilowatt hour may be no greater than the cost of obtaining the same amount of power from a gas engine.

LEAGUE OF NATIONS IS DUE Former Envoy Looks for Cnttin; Down of Armaments. PHILADELPHIA, May 19. A league of nations is almost certain to be an outgrowth of the war, in the opinion of Theodore Marburg, of Baltimore, formerly United States Minister to Bel gium. He delivered an address on "Se curity Under a League of Nations" be fore the annual meeting of the Ameri can Academy of Political and Social Science. Mr. Marburg based his be lief on the fact that the entente pow ers, in their joint nots to President Wilson, "committed themselves for mally and officially to the project." He added: "But until it is .shown that the league can and will protect its.mem- V. : . , j 1 . . , i . , ueifi f;AiiinL ttuuueu jusauii, uni.il 1 1 is shown that the league itself will hold together in times of storm and stress, no country can be expected to place its sole reliance for protection .on it. Until then Great Britain, for example, could not in fairness be asked to impair the strength of her great fleet. "To many men the acts committed in this war, the very assault itself, were, before the event, simply unbe lievable. The result is a shock to con fidence confidence in the binding force of treaty obligations, confidence in international law, and confidence in the upright intentions of the neighbor. "No matter what the issue of the war, we are therefore apt for a time to witness armament going on at an accelerated pace. "But once the German menace is definitely removed by a change of spirit on the part of the German peo ple, the world may not only work back to its normal condition, but the exist ence of a league of nations after it shall have established general confi dence in its ability to do what it is de signed to do must eventually bring about an actual amelioration of the condition of armed peace existing be fore the present war. To the security due to her gepgraphical position, the United States will then add the secu rity of a guarantee by the family of nations against sudden attack.". FANS WILL PAYWAR TAX FOR MAGNATES After June 1 Spectators. Will Have to Dig Up Two or Three Cents Extra. IANADIAN PLAN ADOPTED Problem of Meeting Kxieency of Hoar Nicely Solved, as It Pre vents, Necessity of 10 Per Cent Increase for Tickets. After June 1 the baseball fans will begin to dig into their Jeans for 2 or 3 cents extra whenever they visit the Pacific Coast League park. That's the way the baseball magnates are going to pay their wa rtax. John K. Tener, president of the Na tional League and ex-Governor of Pennsylvania, and Ban Johnson, presi dent of the American League, headed off the scheme for making the mag nates dig up 10 per cent of their gross receipts. Tener's influence undoubtedly saved what would have been a bad situation for baseball. This is particularly true of the minor leagues, for very few of the minors could live without that 10 per cent velvet, and it would have been folly to attempt to soak the fans an extra 10 per cent for the cost of the admission ticket. War Tax Stamp to Be Used. But sticking on a war tax stamp is different matter. Few fans would object to doing that little thing for their country, particularly if their ball club happened to be on a winning streak. So, the plan offered by Tener and Johnson and apparently adopted by the Government officials seems to solve the problem nicely. This tax, levied by means of stamtjs. is the plan in effect in Canada. Baseball is a little different from must businesses. Even a major league Dan ciuo is a loser unless it is ud in the race. Second division ball clubs lose money in the major leagues and In the minors a great many of the win ning clubs are dabbling in red ink nowadays. Portland had great monev-makine- ciuds in lsio and 1911, but it is doubt- rui ir the 1913 and the 1914 pennant winners so much as broke even on the ledger. Last year the McCredies un doubtedly lost money and a 10 cent Jolt this year would have forced tne club either to auit or else drnn to 16 players with a cut in the salaries of some of these.

WING SHOWS GLASS LOCAL BOXERS- MAKES HIT WITH SAX F-RAJfCISCO FANS. Jaek Allen Sits Portland Mitt, Make Good Showing In Recent Bob In South Jack Allen, Portland litrht weight ar rived from San Francisco yesterday, where he lost a decision to Joe White. He was one of the four Portland boys taken to the Seal Rocks City by Joe Flanigan. The Portland handler. Billv Mascott, Weldon Wing and Al Sommers remained in California. Wing got off good in San Pranrl J? rtday night, beating Claire Bromeo, i youngster who had won 64 battles. In eluding victories over such good boys as Jimmy Dundee, Eddie Moy and sev eral others. Bromeo knocked Dundee out in one round. "Toughy" made a hit and is in big demand. Harry Foley. who staged a show in San Francisco last night, wanted to match Wing with Harry Pelsinger. but Flanigan thinks it is policy to take "Toughy" alone a Dlt slow. Wing is a likely looking kid. A logl- cal match is one between Weldon and WOMEN DO EFFECTIVE WORK IN ARMY AND NAVY AUXILIARY Recruits Are Still Coming: in Slowly Horseshoers j-w HE Third Oregon is slowly being I recruited up to full war strength. Colonel John L. May and Captain William R. Logus, the latter to whom the recruits must first report upon reaching field headquarters, are satis fied with the high personnel of men who are coming into the regiment, but are of the opinion that the young men of Portland and Oregon especially should show a keener desire to enlist in the home organization. The mustering officer reports there are still vacancies for about 50 men. While there is no authority for saying so, there are indications that the Third Oregon will move within the next two months. When the regiment does move, in all probability it will be to some point where there will be some active service seen. Cooks are needed, and so are horseshoers and mechanics, and the quicker the Third is recruited up to full war strength the nearer will come the day of seeing real action. Headquarters company is in need of a horseshoer at once. Examinations Made Daily. In accordance with a new ruling that was made yesterday, all recruits who are eager to enlist in the Third Ore gon are requested to report, as far as possible, at the Regimental Infirmary at 9 A. M. and at 2 P. M. Applicants, by appearing at the infirmary at the hours named, will find the physical examiners on the job and much time will be saved. In spite of the fact that enlistments are slow, those who do report show a splendid patriotism. Many men have written, either to company commanders or to headquarters, telling of being turned down on examinations when the call first came, but now they have un dergone operations or medical treat ment to overcome these faults. Here is one of the many Instances: Yester day morning a letter was received from R. J. McKInney, of Independence, Or. McKinney was turned back when he at tempted to enlist, March 29, last, in Company B because of a slight hernia. Since then he has undergone an opera- Alex Trambitas if the pair could be brought together over the 10-round route at Vancouver. Jack Fahie. who looks after Trambitas. is in favor of such a conflict. The Evergreen Athlet ic Club of Vancouver is looking for a boy to scrap Alex June 8. There might be some difficulty over weight, but this could be settled. Why not Wing? a Jack Allen says that Al Sommers should have had the decision over Jack Downey. The latter outweighed Al fully 25 pounds and was lucky to get a draw. Downey is hard to beat and has victories over Jack Dempsey, the Salt Lake heavyweight, Mexican Kid Carter, Eddie Palmer and others and is now considered the best 165-pounder in San Francisco. Sommers will box the winner, of the Battling Ortega-Frank Barrieau bout scheduled for the Seal Rocks City to night. Billy Mascott did not meet Ed die James Friday night owing to a bad hand. He was not feeling well when he left and the injury to his mitt added to this put him out of the running. Billy will have no trouble getting by around San Francisco in fact, he ought to develop into quite a sensation. The Portland boxing contingent in San Francisco is stopping at the Con tinental Hotel, but after a few days will have apartments near the beach. Unless Wing is matched with Alex Trambitis in Vancouver, the Portland boxers probably will stay around the Seal Rocks City for several weeks, as Flanigan's stable is much in demand. Mike and Tommy Gibbons boxed a four-round exhibition at Dreamland Rink, San Francisco, last night. Harry Foley put on the bill. a "Harlem Tommy" Murphy has gone into the moving picture business. The New York lightweight veteran was one of the most picturesque boxers who ever laced on a glove. Jim Corbett. who is writing sporting news for a New York newspaper, is go ing to tell all about his fight with John L. Sullivan. Corbett is picked to win. In San Francisco, if Ad Santel im ports a Bet-up he gets roasted and if he Is set-up be gets roasted, so ne s in an awful fix. For a long time it bothered folks all along the Coast as to whether Santel spelled his name with one or two "Vs." It doesn't matter now. But Santel should worry. He made $15,000 in San Francisco. Sneaking of cauliflower ears, local boxers noticed when Mike Gibbons was here that he snorted one which com rjared verv favorably with those or Walter Miller and Frankie Sullivan, which is causing some of the Portland six-round stars to remark that there is nothing in the talk that a clever boxer need never get a cauliflower ear. m - Youner Jack Johnson, the negro mid dleweight who was around here for several months, has made an offer in San Francisco to box anyone for the benefit of the Red Cross fund. What Ex-Coasters Did in the Majors Yesterday. CUTSHAW knocked out a home run, winning for Brooklyn. Johnston went hitless. Olson smashed a safety. Brief missed getting a hit, Zeider scored a run. Elliott caught, but was hitless. Reuther and Wolter failed to deliver as pinch hitters. Bancroft doubled and scored. Cravath doubled and singled. - Killifer doubled, singled and tallied once.

In fielder Asks Reinstatement. NEW YORK, May 22. Infielder Tom Fitzslmmons, drafted from Butte, Mont., last Fall, has petitioned the Na tional Commission for reinstatement. it was announced by the Brooklyn Na tional League Club today. If success ful, the Brooklyn club will send him to Spokane. for Third Oregon and Mechanics and Are Needed. tion, has been pronounced sound by the doctor and says he will be ready to enlist by the end of this month. It goes without saying a man who is patriotic enough to spend his own money for medical repairs has the right kind of patriotic stuff in him, and that his kind, if they can again pass the medical examination, is welcomed in the Third. McKinney still desires to join Company B. Women's Auxiliary is ' Brnty, There is in Portland a little band of patriotic women who so far have kept the great pratlcal things they are doing from the public eye. They have even done things for the soldiers and sailors that other organizations have received misplaced credit for having done. It is the Army and Navy Auxil iary. Their work is not done for the Army alone, for they look after the wants of those in the Navy, as well as to the needs of their families. For in stance, they are doing for the Third Oregon what the Red Crosc and similar organizations are not. The Army and Navy Auxiliary learned that medical supplies for the Third Oregon sanitary troops were slow in coming. . These women sent next day to the Regimental Infirmary a box containing more than $70 worth of drugs. Here is how they do the practical things: They first called 'up Major Marcellus and learned from him what drugs were most badly needed and they supplied them. The auxiliary also has Bent to the in firmary several boxes of bandages and many other things so badly needed in a hospital. Another thing which is re markable about the auxiliary is that no member will allow other than the Army and Navy Auxiliary to receive credit for what is done. Still another sample of the way the Army and Navy Auxiliary does things: The Machine Gun Company has been without fraso llne ever since the company received the gift of 20 motor and side cars from patriotlo citizens. The auxiliary saw the appeal for gasoline, which was printed in The Oregonian. The next day $20 worth of gasoline was sent to Captain Elvers. WOMEN PLAY TODAY Golf Match to Be for Benefit of Red Cross. KICKERS' TOURNEY IS PLAN Affair to Be Staged on Portland Club Links for Entertain ment of Players Who Cannot Make Team to Eugene. ' A golf competition for the benefit of the Red Cross is on the programme for today at the Waverley Country Club. Mrs. Thomas Kerr, who has just resigned the captaincy of the women's golf team, has donated a captain's cup for the competition today. It will be open to women only and will be an 18-hole handicap affair. Graham Glass' announcement to players reads In part: "To add further zest to the occasion and to make this a memorable event, an entrance fee of 50 cents will be charged and the entire amount of en trance money will be given to the Red Cross. We hope every woman player will enter and thus help a worthy cause and at the same time testify appreciatingly of the good golf work performed by our retiring captain. For Saturday Chairman Glass, of the handicap committee, has arranged a mixed foursome event. 18 holes, medal play. Handicaps will be based on three-eighths of the combined handi caps of the players on each side. En trance fee will be Jl. A kickers' tournament will be staged at the Portland Golf Club Sunday for the entertainment of those who do not make the team trip to Eugene to com pete against the Eugene Country Club. This kickers handicap tournament will be 18 holes, handicaps to be chosen by each player for himself. The winner will be the player whose net score is closest to the average of the three low gross scores turned in. The Portland club expects to take 15 or 16 players to Eugene. The agree ment between the clubs calls for 12 men on a side in the forthcoming de ciding match for the big cup. but Charles A. Burden, chairman of the handicap committee at Eugene, has re quested the local club to bring down a few extras. Some of the local players will go to Eugene Saturday morning, so as to get some practice on the Eugene course prior to Sundays match. The tourney will be 18 holes, one point counting for each nine holes and one point on the 18 holes. George Anderson, a prominent Port land player, has just returned from a trip to Washington and will be on the team. On Friday. Saturday and Sunday of this week the women players of the Portland Golf Club will compete in the newly inaugurated competition for the H. R. Everding trophy vase. It will be handicap medal tourney, 18 holes. the winner for four successive months to nave ner name engraved on the beautiful trophy. At the conclusion of the four months the four winners will meet in match play, handicap, for permanent possession. TWO BEAVERS WILL GO PINEI.I.I AND FITZ PATRICK WILL BE SENT TO NORTHWESTERN. McCredie Believes It Good Bulnr Cat Down Player Limit Bortox Playing Displeases. LOS ANGELES. May 22. (Special.! Two members of the Portland club. Infielder Pinelli and Pitcher Fitzpat rick, are to be sent to a Northwestern League club, according to announce ment today by Walter McCredie, man ager of the Beavers. The Beaver leader had written to his uncle. Judge McCredie. telling him to make a deal with a Northwestern League club. Before the game today McCredie and Darmody held a conference in regard to cutting down the player limit. Dar mody says he is opposed to any offi cial action, but believes the managers should do it of their own accord. McCredie also talked the matter over with Chance today. That the major league attendance has fallen off two-thirds is the claim by McCredie. He says the war is caus ing poor attendance at the parks. Infielder Pinelli and Pitcher Flta patrick will be released when the club returns home next week. McCredie an nounced. He also said he would bench Borton If he did not show better form around first. According to McCredie. Borton has been responsible for many of the Beaver defeats lately. Mac says he can get all the men be wants from the majors if he gives the clubs options on either Shortstop Hollocher or Out' fielder Williams.

The Profea sional Golfers' Association of America. at a meeting here yesterday, decided to call off the professional championship which was held last year at Siwanoy.
