At Los Angeles L.OS Angeles 6, Salt l,ake O. At Oakland Vernon 8, Oakland 2. BY ROSCOE FAWCETT. Before diagnosing the patients' case. It should be said, in preface, that Port land drubbed the San Francisco league leaders again yesterday for the third consecutive afternoon. The score fin ished 3 to 2, and boosted the Beavers to fourth position over the prostrate and fast-slipping Oaks. About 1500 fans were in the stands. Portland led 2-0 at the start of th ninth, when suddenly the Seals exhib ited symptoms of being alive, and tied the score. Brenton had pitched won derful ball up to this stage. His rud der or his magnets, or some other thingabob got wound up with his steer ing doodad in that inning, and the Beavers were lucky the Seals didn't Bcore another run or two. Griggs Id Stellar Role. Anyhow, Brenton's temporary pyro technics only served to give Arthur (Iriggs, lafe of Vernon, further oppor tunity to impress the big league scouts in .the grandstand. There is always room for young fellows of 35 or 40, or thereabouts in the big show. Even Bill Leard is to get a chance in the Na tional League, for he left Seattle the other day, bound in that direction. Griggs pulled his first hero act In the fourth inning, when he lambasted one of Charley Blum's slants over the leftfield fence near the foul line for a home run. As though this were not enough, Arthur finished the picnic in the last of the n'nth. With the score tied, 2-2, Wilte led off the lastof the ninth with a hit to cen ter. Williams bunted him to second. Erickson, who had succeeded to the mound when Smith "batted for Baum, purposely passed Borton to set the stage for a double play, or, perhaps, be cause he knew Griggs to be a "cast-off" of the Vernon club, and, therefore log ically, not one to fear. Hollocher Performs for Srovt. To get to the point of the yarn, Origgs waited until Krickson had him In the hole with two strikes and then larruped a line drive into left field that brought up against the left-field fence, scattering metaphorical egg fhells and pie erusts, figuratively speaking all over the imaginary picnic grounds. Griggs may not have been of much value to Vernon, but he has been go ing like a Kansas twister since Join ing Portland. Another star yesterday was Char ley Hollocher. the Aladdin-like short top. Hollocher is being watched by Scout Kelley, of the Yanks, and the boy is showing himself something of a psychologist. He made three dis tinct and separate stops yesterday, any one of which would have entitled him to a praiseworthy paragraph. "Holly" also grabbed a couple of hits and should have had three. Brenton Hurls Great Ball. Curiously, Erickson s charged with the defeat, for the score was tied when lie trekked out to the mound in me last of the ninth. Brenton pitched great ball to the ninth and then made a couple of mis cues that nearly cheated him out of a well-earned victory. After walking Ivoerner, he threw Corhan's safo bunt past Borton and permitted both run ners to advance. Kocrnor scored on JIcKee's sacrifice fly, making two out. mith batted for Baum and walked, and Pick took his place as relief run ner. Brenton then made the mistake of trying to run Pick down when he took a big lead and in consequence Corhan Fneaked to third, from where he scored easily on Fitzgerald's single to right. Portland scored its first run in the third inning on Fisher's double to left center, a freak bunt by Brenton that popped over Baum's head and a single through short by Hollocher.

WAVERLEY HEADS WILLING Strain or Northwest Session Not Overcome Yet and Xo Desire for Ante-Climax Is Felt Big Entry Is Expected. While the Waverley Country Club directors "have not ruled on the pro posal, it is extremely probable that the 917 Oregon State Rolf championships will be played on the links at Gear- hart-by-the-Sea, thus combining the Gearhart and state tournaments. The probable dates are August 13 to 8, inclusive. W. W. Cotton, president of the "Waverley Country Club, which has al ways conducted the state tournaments. said yesterday that application had been made to stage the state event by w. Taylor, manager of the Gearhart properties. Mr. Taylor's appplication was re ferred to Graham Glass, chairman of the handicap and tournament commit- ee. hen the board meets sometime within the next week it is altogether ikely that Mr. Glass will recommend that the Gearhart and the state events be merged and awarded to the beach resort. Bis Entry Expected. We already have had the Pacific Northwest championship In Portland, explained Mr. Glass. "This tourney was big affair, and -a state tournament. following such a show, would be some what eclipsed. Then, too, the task of handling the Northwest tournament proved a big one. Conditions are not quite ripe for another big tournament at "Waverley this Kail, at least, not until September if at all. I favor this suggestion for holding the state tournament at Gearhart. We had 60 entries in the men's champion ship at Gearhart last year, or prac tically the same number as entered the state. 1 believe that more than 60 would enter at Gearhart in a state event next month." There is still another angle to the situation. Russel Smith. Ellis Braersr and per haps others of the foremost golfers may be gone to Army training camps by September, and would not be here to compete in a state tournament held at Waverley in that month. On the other hand all the state's top-notchers will be here in August and a state tourney at Gearhart would attract the best players in the district. Wllbelm Will Play. Hudolph Wilhelm, Northwest ama teur champion, said yesterday that he would enter at Gearhart provided the state championships were played on the Gearhart links. Russel Smith won the men's cham pionship at Gearhart last year and Miss Agnes Ford, of Seattle, the two times winner in the Northwest, won the women's Geahart championship. the entire 18 holes were opened for play at Gearhart ten days ago. The course has been rearranged so that the Iirst and tenth tees are in juxtaposi tion.. Formerly the first nine finshed about a mile and a half north of the starting tee. The rearrangement is a distinct improvement. John Deggs, well-known professional, is again in charge of the course. According to Manager Taylor srolf is more popular than ever at the beach.

FOOTBALL CHANGE INDICATED Abandonment of Freshman Eligi bility Rule Probable. UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA. Berkeley, July 12. (Special.) Coach Andy Smith, football mentor at Uni versity of California, has letters from Eastern universities indicating aban donment of the freshman eligibility rule. This would affect materially the Pacific Coast conference's steps in forming schedules and making gridiron rules for the Fall.

M. In Boys' Events Lewiston Is to Meet Tacoma and Portland Plays SeaU tie. Finals to Be Staged in Inrvington Also Tomorrow. BY WALTER A. GOSS. The big tennis event of the year is on. All of the boys representing the cities of the Pacific Northwest have had a good try at the Irvington courts and those watching the boys in action have predicted some fast and furious battles for the coveted titles. The honor of representing the Pacific Northwest in New York City on August 30 is no mean prize, but the desire to bring the title home to his own city is uppermost in each boy's mind and each city represented may well be proud of the boys sent to Portland. The draw resulted as follows: Junior Events. Tacoma vs. Seattle. Lewiston vs. Portland. Boys' Events. Lewiston vs. Tacoma. Portland vs. Seattle. On Saturday the winners of two pre liminary matches will meet for the title. Nothing quite so strenuous ever has been staged among the boys of the Pacific Northwest. At 2 o'clock Marshall Allen, Seattle"s junior, will meet Camille Pessimelr, the Tacoma junior. At the same time, on an adjoining court, the boys will fight it out, Abram Goldstone representing Lewiston, Idaho, and Alma Roberts representing Tacoma, At 4 o'clock Phil Neer, Portland's boy, will meet Millington Grey, Seattle's boy, and at the same hour Paul Steffen, Portland's junior, will meet William White, Jr., from Lewiston. Lewiston has shown great interest in helping to make the tournament a suc cess, and the crack Lewiston junior doubles team has been anxious to have a tug at a Portland team. The com mittee has therefore accepted the Lew iston challenge and has asked Henry M. Stevens and Deo Mallett to uphold the Oregon colors. A great doubles Tnatch Is looked for, and the Lewiston team will be made up of William White, Jr., and James J. Babb, the latter having just made a fine tennis record at Exeter. Beals C. Wright will arrive on the early morning train and will act as referee. Word has just come from Cal ifornia that the famous George Wright, father of Beals, is en route to Portland and he is hoping to reach here in time to see the finals on Saturday. The boys are much honored in having Beals Wright act as official for the tournament and the committee has in mind an exhibition match on Satur day afternoon between Mr. Wright and the winner of the tournament. In reply to several inquiries on the probability of seeing Mr. Wright in ac tion, it would be far more interesting to see Mr. Wright play against the win ner of the tournament, first because the tournament belonged to the boys, and secondly because the boys were coming ahead so fast that the boy who wins will give Mr. Wright as good a game of tennis as the Pacific Northwest has to offer. The social features of the tournament will be in the hands of Mrs. R. A. Stewart, who will be assisted by Mrs. W. 1. Northup, Mrs. James Shu II. Mrs. W. J. Hofmann, Mrs. Harry M. Hender shott, Mrs. R. G. Cornish. Mrs. E. L. Whitney, Mrs. Thomas Watts, Mrs. William F. Woodward and Mrs. Will iam P. Lord. Refreshments will be served by these matrons, assisted by a bevy of Irving- ton young women, and the Irvington people are looking forward to the event as the chief social event of the Summer season. There will be no charge for the re freshments and a season ticket entitles the holder to see all of the games well as an invitation to the flannel dance given on Saturday evening at the ubhouse. It is to be hoped that Portland will turn out in goodly numbers not only to see some high-class tennis, but also to lend support-to these clean-cut young athletes who are trying so nard to make a creditable showing. W. L. FIXX.EY BACK FROM TRIP State Biologist Says Pheasants In creasing in Eastern Oregon. W. L. Ftnley, state biologist, returned last night from a 1200-mile automobile trip through Eastern- Oregon and he brought back with him the gladsome news for sportsmen that the pheasant and other game birds planted in that part of the state by the Fish and Game Commission have thrived and will be populous in a reasonably short time. The pheasants in Umatilla and Wal lowa counties have done well, Mr. Fin ley reported, and will be a welcome addition to the game of those sections because the quail are frequently killed off by severe weather. Mr. Flnley was accompanied by Stanley Jewett, of the biological sur vey, and H. V. Bohlman. Moving pic tures of many wild animals in their habitat were taken. These Included pictures of bobcats, cougars and coy otes of the Steins Mountains country. SOLDIERS TO HAVE FIELD DAY Members of Company D to Hold Tournament at Estacada. ESTACADA, Or., July 12.
