SAX FRANCISCO, Cal., June 22.
(Special.) The Oaks made a stand to
day and won. 6 to 4. Brenton had
hard luck In that fourth inning, for,
with the bases full. Sheehan hit to
Siglin, who threw home in time to
choke off the run, but fisher dropped
the ball. There was one out and
Fisher had plenty of timo to com
plete a double play had he hung onto
the ball. That let in one run.
lan Murray got a scratch hit, which
scored another, and, after Prough had
struck; out, Mensor hit a fast one
through Rodgers, letting the other, two
runs over.
In the fifth, Brenton was largely to
blame, for he walked two men and
unloosed a wild pitch. The wild
heave let a run over and one of the
passes came with the bases full.
Portland started briskly, getting two
runs in the first, but could do nothing
after that until the eighth. In that
round Williams was passed, filling the
bases, to get at Farmer, and the lat
ter popped out. So did Siglin. Score:

"TpHE old twirlers and the cast-offs
J. had a day to themselves Thursday
in the National League.
Our old friend Rube Marquard
trimmed Philadelphia by a four to-two
score, beating the mighty Alexander.
New York thought the Rube was all
In but he's been fooling them so far
this season for Brooklyn.
Fred Toney was turned adrift by
the Cubs and since joining the Reds he
has been pitching great ball, including a
no-hit no-run game this season. Toney
won from St. Louis by a seven-to-one
score and he had the opposition at
his mercy during the nine innings.
Jeff Tesreau let Boston down with
three hits and won four to nothing.
Big Jeff is leading hia league at pres
ent and is going great guns. Jeff has
been heaving them over for New York
for five years now and he is getting
petter an the time.
Old Tom Seaton worked against
Pittsburg and came out on the long
end of a 12-to-3 score. Thomas used
to fling them for the Portland Beavers
and after going to the big leagues he
went up and down the ladder of fame
and he Is now on the top rung for
the second time.

During the Detroit-St, Louis game
Thursday Ty Cobb got a scratch single

Poor Ty is certainly losing hia speed.

slump. It extended for two months
this season and now he is back after
getting a good rest. They've been
throwing them by Lee and he couldn't
hit them, although he said the pitchers
hadn't any more stuff on the ball than
before.
The Yankees should quit playing on
the Sabbath. They haven't won a game
on Sunday this year.
"Give me big pitchers," says "Wild
Bill Donovan, the scrappy manager of
the Yankees, "they can't come too big
as long as they are good. They laughed
at me when I got 'Slim' Love, but they
are not laughing now."
Branch Rickey, president of the St.
Louis Cards, has signed Arthur McKln
ney, a pitcher from William Jewell Col
lege. McKinney has a record of striking
out 25 men in one game and 23 in an
other. If Mamaux recovers his effectiveness
the Pirates might start climbing.
Clark Griffith claims Eddie Cicotte
is using a "spine ball." Whatever that
is, Eddie is sure getting by with it.
"Bobby" Vaughn has been released
by the Angels. When Bobby played
against the Beavers he led his team in
hitting and did his best to beat his
old team-mates.

Total for 72 Holes Is 293, Seven Better
Than Score by Tom McXamara,
Who Is Second. -
PHILADELPHIA. Pa.. June 22.
Maintaining the fine form that has
marked his play throughout the tour
nament, Jock Hutchinson, the profes
sional entered from the Allegheny
County Club, of Pittsburg, but now of
the Glenview Club, Chicago, today won
the National open patriotic golf tour
nament at Whitemarsh over a field of
nearly 100 contestants. His total for
the 72 holes was 292, seven strokes bet
ter than Tom McNamara, of Taplow,
who finished second.
Because of the war Hutchinson's vic
tory did not bring him the usual title,
the United States Golf Association hav
ing decided to award only medals and
certificates for the 10 best scores.
Charles (Chick) Evans, open and ama
teur champion, did not compete.
Hutchinson, who was runner-up to
Evans when he won the open cham
pionship last year, played consistently
from the start of the tournament, his
71 for the third round this morning,
one under par for the course, being the
best score made during the three days'
play. He took but one more stroke for
the fourth round, negotiating the con
cluding 18 holes in par.
Edward Loos, of Philadelphia, who
started the day's play but one stroke
behind Hutchinson, appeared to be off
form in the morning round, his 80
sending him to third place when Mc
Namara turned in a eard of 76. Mc
Namara maintained his lead in the af
ternoon with a 72, while Loos took 73
for the final round for a total of 303.

The money saved In this way. a sum

The Waverley links reminded strong
ly of a circus grounds yesterday.
Workmen were busy here and there
erecting tents for the headquarters
and caddies and telephones, and every
where as far as the eye could see the
links were dotted with gaily sweatered
mashie maulers and divot destroyers.
Several prospective entries arrived
during the day from Tacoma and other
Pacific Northwest cities. Three other
professionals reported from Tacoma to
prepare for the open championship
event, which begins Friday.
Seven California professionals will
be here to compete in the open against
the rival "pros" and amateurs. John
Black, of the Claremont Country Club,
Oakland, probably is the best of the
lot, although not up to his former
game this year, owing to a slump on
his tee shots.
The others are: Ernest Martin, of
the Beresford Golf Club, San Mateo;
Robert Lager, of the Lincoln Park Mu
nicipal course, San Francisco; Eddie
Traube. Presidio Club, San Francisco;
Tom Hughes. Burlingame Country
Club; James Smith Del Paso Club,
Sacramento, and Willie Locke, of the
Sequoia Club.
Martin has been playing the best
golf of any of the Northern California
professionals this season. Traube, of
the Presidio Club, is one of the longest
drivers in the south and may find the
Waverley links to his liking, although
very much unlike the Presidio.
Bob Johnstone, of Seattle; Dave Find
lay, of Spokane; Philip Jefferson, of
Everett, and Johnny Junor, of the Tu
alatin Country Club, Portland, are the
four Pacific Northwestern profession
als figured to stand the best chance
against the Californians. Last year an
amateur won the event, which is 72
holes, medal, and an amateur may re
peat, despite the big field of "pros."
Russel Smith, Northwest amateur
champion, turned in a card of 69 in a
round Thursday evening within one
stroke of his course record. The course
Is in wonderful condition, due to the
efforts of C. H. Davis, Jr., and A. C. U.
Berry, of the greens committee.
The Willamette rose a little yester
day and added to its inundations on
the 17th and 18th fairways, but the
wise weather birds figure it to recede
tomorrow and decline steadily through
out tournament week.
C. H. Davis will not announce the
special rules for the 17th hole until
Sunday afternoon or Monday morning.
Dave Findlay, the Spokane profession
al, suggested that the left-hand bunker
beyond the water hazard be filled in
and the local rule permitting lifting
back of the traps rescinded. The water
in front of the tee provides an ideal
water hazard.

BERKELEY WILL PLAY
GRIDIRON CONTESTS ASSURED AT
CALIFORNIA IN FALL.
Coach Smith Completes Plans to Begin
Football Season tn August TVith
.Series of Class Games.
BERKELEY, Cat, June 22. Spe
cial.) Coach Andy Smith's return to
the University of' California campus
from a recent trip East assures the
Bear State followers of the gridiron
game, despite rumors that there will
not be intercollegiate football at the
University this Fall. Coach Smith has
his plans all made to begin the foot
ball season about the middle of August
with a series of inter-class contests In
order to develop and get a line on his
varsity material for later on in the sea
son. Smith intends to keep every man
busy that reports on the field all sea
son and to make football a condition
ing game during the war period.
Coach Smith said that nearly all of
the Eastern universities were planning
active gridiron seasons for this Fall
and that there was not any reason why
the West should not follow the Eastern
example and President Wilson's plea
to keep up intercollegiate sports. The
Eastern universities also have lifted
the ban on freshmen players so that
the "babes" are now eligible for the
varsity teams provided they show class
enough.
If the colleges comprising the Pa
cific Coast -conference do away with
the freshmen ruling the teams will not
be so sorely crippled in the Fall as ap
pears at this time. Next Fall's brand
of college football will not be as bril
liant as of yore, but with more scrappy
youngsters In the field plenty of ex
citement and competition is assured.
The California varsity will have a
number of the old hands back, provided
the conscription officials do not thin
the ranks. Eddie Mahan will not be
a member of the 1917 coaching staff,
but Gus Zigler will return to help
Andy Smith with" the line material.
