For a long time before Welsh lost the championship it was apparent that he was slipping. His de cline was gradual, but it was merely a question of time as to how long he would be able to withstand the assaults of the men with whom he was matched. aome were good, some were bad and some were Indifferent boxers. ah along the fistic fans feared that "dub" would steo in and slin over a more or less lucky wallop on him and relieve him of the title. Every time he was matched with some second rater in the tank towns those who had the best interest of the sport at heart nopea tervently that Freddie would come through the bout intact, not par ticularly oecause he was a popular ringman. but because It was the gen eral wish that when he was dethroned it would be by a man worthy in every respect of wearing the crown. Leonard Held Invincible. It was a happy event for boxincr mn when Leonard relieved him of. his titi Welsh survived his matches with "pork and beaners" and then passed on the wreatn to one who stood head and shoulders above all the other light weights. At the present time Leonard seema n be absolute monarch of his division. The majority of fans and experts con sider him invincible. They believe that mere is not a man at his weiarht who classes with him and that he will hold the lightweight chanipionshiD for some time to come.

These lightweights, according to the work that they have been doing in the ring and their most recent showings. aro in the group next to the cli.tm pion and if it is possible to dethrone him, one of them is the most likely to accomplish the feat. To the list might be added the names of Joe Well ing, Pete Hartley. Tommy Tuohey and maybe a few others. But getting right a own to brass tacks. Dundee. Cal In ban.

WROXG DKCISIO.V COSTS GAME Western Cooperage Players Say Loss at Gcrvais Not Deserved The W estern Cooperage ball club played at Uervai3 on July 22, and, ac cording to the club officials, the local boys were the victims of a miscue by the umpire. Up to the first of the ninth the Cooperage team led. In that inninr- with two out the batter hit to the outfield but a runner on second base cut third base and reached home be fore the ball. The tiervais pitcher then threw two balls to the next bats man before tossing- to third base. The umpire called the runner out for cut ting third. This decision was wrong for section 13 of rule S6 specifically says that the base runner shall not be out if the ball be delivered to the bat by the pitcher before tho fielder hold the ball on the base alleged to have been cut.

The an nual grand circuit meeting here was cut one day short by the management. presumably to prevent further loss, and so ended with today's racing. Tho last day crowd saw a splendid race in the free-for-all pace, in which the season's speed record was established by Hal Boy. although Single G. won the race. Ben Karl set the pace In the first heat, but Single O. overhauled him in the stretch and won in 2:02. The next time Single G. went out in front and stayed there vatil the last eighth, when Hal Boy. who had been trailing close. came fast, carrying Single G. to a break and winning in 2:014. the record heat of the year, with the last half In roS3. Ben Larl came back in the third and was never headed, the time being slow. Single G. was unable to catch him In a stretch spurt, though making the last quarter In :294. Single G. followed close behind Ben Kail's lead in the fourth until the final eighth, when he paced by and won handily the heat and race. Hay Boy's final effort just falling snort. All the races went Into extra beats. The 2:16 trotters took four heats. Bes sie G. won the first, and then Tommy Murphy came along with Peter Che nault and took the next three handily. Stephen won two heats in the 2:10 trot with plenty in reserve, but broke in the last part of the third, when Brescia pushed him, and the rest of the race was easy for Brescia. From here the grand circuit moves to Kalamazoo, where racing begins next Tuesday. Many of thethorses. however. are going back to the half-mile tracks. Portland Ad Vomaa Wins Laurels. Florence M.

Teams Have Fewer Strikeouts. WALKS ALSO ARE HELP In IMtcliing End Four of Leading Strikeout Pitchers Are" In Sec ond Division Beavers Aro Best at Wbiffing. Strike-outs and bases on balls are having a lot to do with the winning of the 1917 Coast League pennant that Is they are figuring prominently in the batters end, but are not cutting so much figure from the viewpoint of pitching. Thus, the clubs whose bat ters bave struck out the fewest times are In the first division today, and the clubs in the second division are those that have furnished the most strike out victims for opposing pitchers. Similarly the clubs whose batters have drawn the most bases on balls are the clubs in the first division, and the three clubs In ihe second division have shown the least ability in drawing passes. From the pitching end, however, it Is different. Of the seven leading strik out pitchers, there are four from second division cluhs. "Chief Johnson.- now with the Seals, is counted as one of these four, as he . as spent most of the season with a second divis'on club. Of the seven pitchers who have issued the most walks, however, six are of first di vision clubs. So, there is the paradox of the dope sheet. The clubs up around the top in tiie pennant race are those whose bat ters strike out the fewest times and who draw the most walks, and these same clubs stay up there around thn top despite the fact that their pitchers strike out fewer opponents and walk moro men than the pitchers of other clubs. Salt Lake batters have struck out the fewest times of batters of any clubs; 227 strike-outs charged to Salt Lake; Los Angeles, 24S; San Francisco, 310; Vernon, 357; Oakland, 371; and Port land. 378. Oakland and Vernon are the onlv clubs that have had more batters strike out than have drawn walks. Leading strike-out pitchers are Erickson.
