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. Score:

MERGING OF BIG
TOUBIJEYS LIKELY
State and Gearhart Meets
May Be Held at Beach Re
sort During August.
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.

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.

formerly wore the windpad in the
Southern League, and that is where
Manager Bernard knew him.
The Los Angeles club is trying to
get Southpaw Reuther from the Chi
cago Cubs. With Reuther in good trim
and taking care of himself, the Angels
would be able to give the Seals a merry
chase. The Angels are a greatly im

Hen's Shaving Cream makes shav

makes a better lather that you
don't have to rub in. Try it.
Tryers always get the benefits of

prefer safety matches to flint

start a blaze.
