With gilt-edged pitching: by Bill Fincher, the Portland Beavers won the opener from Salt Lake yesterday In a ninth-inning- flarenp, 2 to 1. Salt Lake eored Ha only run ofr Flncher In the first inning- on Tobin's single over Sec ond, Rath's sacrifice andi Sheely's sin gle to left. Southpaw Hoff began the game for Sa.lt Lake, but after walking four con secutive batsmen In the fourth Inning-, forcing- one run over the plate. Man ure r Bernhard brnched him in favor of !Long; Tom" Hughes. Fine Throws Cut Off Scores. Backed up by a couple of sensational throws to the plate by Tobin and Ryan, Hughf held Portland scoreless until the last half of the ninth, when the Beavers won before anybody was out. Williams began the ninth by walking. Hughes tried to catch him off first base and in taking the return throw from Sheely, fumbled the ball just long enough to permit Williams to reach second base in safety. Hughes exuded a wild pitch on the next ball, and Will iams tore on to third' base and scored from there on an infield- hit by Jack Farmer. The umpiring last week was tinc tured to some extent by indecisiveness and it looked for' a moment yesterday as though the arbiters were going to pull a mlscue in favor of Portland. Freak Doable Play Staged. In the second inning, with Borton on first. Williams drove an easy fly ball to Buddy Ryan. Bud dropped the ball in his swing to throw to second, and Borton. imagining Buddy had fumbled the catch, ran to second base without going through the formality of returning- to first base. Ryan threw in to the infield and Borton was doubled off first. In the oratoricals that followed Bill Rodgers and Walter McCredie almost argued the umpires into permitting Borton to re main on second base. Or at least It so impressed) one in the stands. Owing to the fact that yesterday was a. sort of holiday, a crowd of nearly 8000 fans turned out to extend the mitt of welcome to the Utah visitors. Bill Rodgers gave the bunch a. thrill in the eighth inning, when he Jack-rabbited over to his left and pulled a lightning one-hand stop on Quinlan's grounder. Tobin and Ryan Shine. Two nifty throws to the home plate by Tobin and Ryan also conspired to make the game a thriller. Had either one of these chucks been? a foot off line the game would have been over after the first half of the ninth. Tobin is a little left-hander, fast on his feet and apparently a fair hitter. He cut Slglin down at the plate in the third inning- and Buddy Ryan, performed a similar bit of execution work in the sixth on Williams.

A hitch bobbed up yesterday In the proposed trade of Players Helfrich and Stumpf, of the Portland ball club, to Spokane for Catcher Baldwin. George Helfrich, young spitball pitcher, re fused point blank to go to Spokane and announced his intention of remain ing In Portland until Judge McCredie's return from San Francisco. As soon as the judge returns Helfrich will ask him for an unconditional release. "I came to Portland a free agent. and if Portland doesn't want - me I think I am entitled to an unconditional release." said be last night. "I have an opportunity to make more money in the International League than Spokane can pay me. "Therefore I want to be declared a free agent." Bill Stumpf took his release philo sophically, but some of his friends whis pered it about that Bill wants to go to the Southern Association and might also desire to wriggle away from the switch to Spokane. "'I knew it was coming." said he. Pinelli Is a grand young ballplayer and it was hardly to be expected that the team could keep two extra infielders in these stormy war days.
