TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, TTTTCSrJAY. JUNE 5, 1917. CATCHER BALDWIN TO JOIN BEAVERS Fast Spokane Backstop Comes in Trade for Bill Stumpf - and Two Pitchers. HELFRICH IS IN DEAL Fltzpatrlck Already la Wearing In dian Uniform Judge V. W. Mo Credle Is Called South .Attend League Meeting. to Just before boarding a Southern Pa cific train for a hurried and unex pected trip to San Francisco "W. W. 11c Credle made announcement last night of an important trade of ballplay ers with the Spokane club of the Xorthwestern League. The deal Involves the transfer of Bill Stumpf, a veteran lnf (elder of the Beavers, and George Helfrlch, young pitcher, to the Spokane club in ex change for Catcher Baldwin, of Spo kane. Last week Portland turned Pitcher Fltzpatrlck to Spokane, so the addi tion of Stumpf and Helfrlch to the list means virtually that the McCredies have given three players In exchange for Baldwin. Baldwin Is a right-handed batsman and Is very promising. He caught for Tacoma last season and Spokane ob tained him In trade for Harry Harper, outfielder. The acquisition of Baldwin likely means the release of Louis Sepulveda, recently signed by the Beavers after being released by Ban Francisco. Stumpf came to Portland In 1915 from Cleveland and batted .295 that season. Last year Bill fell a victim of rheumatic troubles and did not play the final four months of the schedule He hasn't had an opportunity to play regularly this year, as Mack has been more partial to the youngsters Siglln Pinelll and Hollocher. Stumpf played first base during the entire Spring training games, however, and batted above .500. He should be of value to Spokane, because he can play any . where In the Infield or outfield. Stumpf gained his big league ex perience with the New York Yankees when Frank Chance managed the Yanks In 1913. Gus Fisher was on the club at the time. Chance finally trad ed him to Cleveland In the deal for Roger Peckinpaugh, and Peckinpaugh now is captain or the Yanks. Harry Harper, ex-Angel outfielder. Is hitting at a .407 clip for the Tacoma Tigers, and It Is partly through his efforts that the team is at the top of me race. Since the American League was or ganized. In 1900, there have been 24 no-hit games recorded In that circuit. Tannehill, Hamilton. Leonard and Mogridge are the only southpaws who were able to turn the trick. Mogridge twirled his no-hit game this season. Cold weather seems to be the biggest neip ror the twlrlers who have sue raeaea in worKing in a no-hlt game, as 14 of the 24 games pitched in the American League have been pitched In April, May, September and October. Of the four hitless games pitched In J908, inree came alter the weather turned cold, between September 18 and Octo ber 2. Helfrlch came to Portland this Spring from the Harrisburg club of the New York State League. He is -a spitballer with a dandy record and will Burely make a winning pitcher -in the Korthwestern League. Judge McCredie doesn't know what Is In the wind that calls for a spe cial meeting of the Pacific Coast League directors. The Portland mag nate received a telegram from Presi dent Baum yesterday notifying him that an extra session had been ordered. "I guess It's this war tax matter," said the Judge. "The fate of Coast League ball for the season may be decided at t:ie session." ATHLETES JOIN MEDICAL CORPS Prominent Trackmen and Ballplayers Enroll in Army Service.

SUNDAY SET FOR 2 GAMES LasC Week's Play Indicates That Oaks and Angels Yet to Be Con gldered - as Pennant Contend ers, Says Roscoe Fawcett. BT ROSCOE FAWCETT. Owing to the fact that only a few local business houses will close today, the Portland and Salt Lake clubs will not play a double-header this after noon. The usual Tuesday game will be on the tapis, commencing at 3 o'clock. To find place for the extra game authorized by President Baum the Beavers and Bees will grapple In a double-header Sunday afternoon, the first game beginning at 1:30 o'clock. "If receipts were to be pooled all around the circuit for Tuesday's game, we would play a double-header, but I think the local , people would much prefer to have a double bill next Sun day," said Judge McCredie. "I think we are in for a good week climatic ally." m m m Last week's series indicates clearly that both the Oakland and Los Angeles clubs are still to the reckoned with seriously as pennant contenders. Oak land took six out of eight from the hitherto almost Invincible Bees and the rejuvenated Angels put a dent In the Seals by winning five out of the eight games played. Good Pitching Necessary. Vernon took the odd game from Portland in a series that demonstrated more clearly than ever that the Port land club cannot cope successfully with its . rivals unless it gets good pitching. The ball club as a whole is strong enough to cope with other Coast ; League organizations with an even' break in the box. An analysis of last week's series reveals an utter lack of balance In the flinging corps. On Thursday Farmer hit two home runs, one with the bases full, giving Port land a five-run lead in the seventh, yet Penner and Byron Houck couldn't hold it. The Tigers set upon them in the eighth and scored six runs, and It required a ninth-Inning rally by the Beavers to tie and win the game. A pitching corps that cannot keep a five-run lead with two Innings to go isn't fast enough for the Epworth League. On Friday the Beavers' pitchers again exploded. With Portland lead ing, 4-1. In the ninth, the Tigers jumped onto Houck with all claws un sheathed and sent five runs hurtling over the plate before McCredie could say "Jack Robinson," or something more expressive of what he was think ing. As if this were not enough Ineffi ciency for one week, George Helfrlch entertained the visitors the following day by permitting them to puncture his delivery for seven runs In two In nings. - Mails Help to Beavers. .."Buster1" " Malls pitched two good games in .the week and is going to help the Beavers a lot. The rest of the staff however, isn't fulfilling the ex pectations of those who held out such promises for them in Spring camp. Kenneth Williams. Gus Fisher, Den nie Wille and Bill Rodgers are having a good year, and the same is true of I Charley Hollocher. Williams and Hol locher are almost sure to be grabbed by some major league club for next year. Both are left-handed batsmen, but not troubled a bit by southpaw pitching. Williams batted .333 in three games against the portsiders, Decanniere and Valencia, last week, and Hollocher .307. Without Williams the Beavers would be in a sorry pickle. The big Grants Pass outfielder covers a lot of ground In the field, Is fairly fast on his feet and Is a power on the offense. His extra base wallops have broken up numerous games this season. He is lea-iing the Portland club in attack. Williams was sent up to Cincinnati by Newton Colver, of Spokane, a couple of years ago, but illness prevented him from showing his real ability. Cincin nati sent him back to Spokane last year and he came from Spokane to the Beavers in mldseason. His Sunday feat of driving three home runs over the right-field fence off Mitchell's delivery will not soon be forgotten. Williams drove In all four runs that won for the Beavers. 4-3. In the 14th-lnning batUe. Stovall Ordered to Stand Indefinitely. GEORGE STOVALL manager of the Vernon ball club, is something of a umorlst, despite his rather crude ex terior. When President Baum, of the Coast League, telegraphed him notice of his suspension for "cussing at umpire Brashear early last week, his message read: It Is hereby ordered that you stand suspended indefinitely." , That afternoon Speck Harkness, who used to play under Stovall at Cleveland, ran across Stovall standing up In the back of the grandstand. Well, what are you doing nerer- in quired "Speck." Let's go and sit down." Sorry, but I can t sit down," re started Stovall, pulling Baum's yellow missive from an Inside pockwt. "I have here an order from President Baum ordering me to 'stand' suspended indef initely." HOXOR PAID TO LES DARCT Body Is , Escorted to Steamer by Mounted Police and Friends. SAN FRANCISCO, June 4. The body of James Leslie (Les) Darcy, the Aus tralian pugilist, escorted by mounted police, band, friends and associates in the sporting world and a delegation from the Fraternal Order of Eagles was borne through the streets today to a steamer due to sail for his native land.

The entry of the United States into the world war has threatened to cripple professional baseball in Seattle, but has brought into existence the Seattle Shipbuilders' League, with an amateur club in each of the four largest ship yards, which together employ 10.000 men.

The league has equipped a ball park within walking distance of the busi ness district of Seattle and it Is esti mated that the patronage of the ship yard men alone, on their Saturday half holiday, .will more than pay the expenses of the team. The park was paid for by money raised by popular subscription. Attendance on the open iny day was 4600. The shipyard own ers encourage the league, believing it Improves the spirit of their plants.
