BT JAMES J. RICHARDSON.
"While Judge McCredie was busy try
ing to figure out what his batting
average with a local bank would be If
it should rain this afternoon at the
Vaughn Street Park, thereby causing
another postponement, and "Red" Kille
fer was digging into Webster's vest
pocket dictionary, trying to find words
that would convey his opinion of the
weather here, the Portland and Los
Angeles ball players ate three square
meals, and local baseball fans bitter
ly condemned Jupiter Pluvius for hav
ing spoiled all chance of a game yes
terday. Rain started to fall late Wednesday
and yesterday the field was a quagmire
of mud and water. There was never a
question about a game being started
and the railway officials received an
other setback in their endeavor to raise
enough of money to give their em
ployes an advance in Ralarv whAn thuir
could nnf haul th Iqt-o-o -v. i
w O " w TT UIUU
was sure to have been present had
th ere been a game.
With salary due his men today and
only one game played this week. Judge
McCredie expressed himself gloomily
at the prospect. The day off was en
Joyed by most of the local ballplayers,
who were busy around home. Some
of the Los Angeles players took a
fishing trip on the river as the guests
of a local sportsman. Charlie Hogg,
Otis Crandall and a few more An
gelenos, with enough fishing tackle to
hook a boatload of steelheads, paddled
down to the mouth of the Willamette
and returned last night with a big
catch of fish.
Perhaps the most Important piece of
news from baseball headquarters yes
terday was the announcement that
Denny Wilie would be back In the
game about next Tuesday, when the
Beavers wll! battle Del Howard and
his Oaks. Wille has been giving his
ankle a rest and is able to don a
uniform at this time, but Manager
McCredie cautioned him against get
ting into the game too soon and suf
fering a setback.
With Wille back in the game Lee
will be benched until such time as his
services are needed. The ex-Marshall-town
lad broke into the local calcium
in great style with his hitting in
Thursday's game and he was con
ceded to be a valuable acquisition to
the local forces.
Tom Seaton, ex-Beaver and more
recently of the big show, will work in
one of the double-headers today pro
vided, of course, that the rain stops in
time to let the sun lry the diamond
so games are possible. Seaton passed
yesterday In Tacoma visiting relatives.
Seaton is the only one of the famous
Portland hurling squad of 1911 who is
drawing pay in the Pacific Coast
League. With Vean Gregg. Gene
Krapp, Ben Henderson and Bill Steen,
Seaton formed one of the greatest
pitching staffs that ever drew pay
fr&m a minor league club and the an
nouncement that he will work in one
of today's double-headers will do doubt
be the magnet for a large attendance.
The first game will be called at 1:30
o'clock.
Gardner and Dalley will work today
for the Beavers. They will be opposed
by Hogg and Seaton for the Angels.
With yesterday's layoff the boys ought
to have a world of "pep" and the fans
should be treated to some real ball
playing. Carl Mays hurled a masterful game
far the Red Sox against the New York
V&nkees yesterday. The ex-Portland
Colt has been more than doing his
share of the pitching for the Red Sox
and is among the five best pitchers
in Ban Johnson's league.

MR. AND MRS. EARL H. CROWE, FORMERLY MISS FRANC SHAY.
Surprising but pleasant was the new s which leaked out yesterday of the
marriage of one of Portland's well-kn own athletes. Earl Crowe, formerly
physical director of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club and city play
grounds, now a Sergeant in the Eighth Company, Coast Artillery Corps, to
Miss Franc Shay, a young member of the women's annex of the Multnomah
Club, and popular socially among the younger set.
The couple stole a march on their many friends by going to Kalama. Wash.,
last Thursday, where they were married by a Justice of the Peace. They re
turned to Portland, each going to their respective homes, and every effort was
made to keep the marriage a secret, but the news leaked out yesterday and
the happy couple were showered with congratulations.

D1ETZ TO REBUILD
PULLMAN ELEVEN
With Veterans in Service of
Nation, Coach Faces
. Difficult Problem.
"LONESTAR" IS HOPEFUL
Opinion Expressed That Despite War
Freshmen Should Not Be Per
mitted to Play in Inter
collegiate Contests.
With his somber skin tanned to a
reddish hue from a Summer spent In
the balmy climate of Southern Cali
fornia, William H. ("Lonestar") Diets,
famous coach of -the Washington State
ATHLETE AND HIS BRIDE.
College football team, passed yesterday
in Portland, visiting friends and inquir
ing what prospects the Oregon colleges
had lined up In the way of material
for the coming season.
Dietz has been working for the Amer
ican Film Company at Santa Barbara.
Cal., and has given football and all its
worries the icy stare during his stay
in the south. Fred Bohler, director of
athletics at the Washington State In
stitution, telegraphed Dletz that he
ought to be on the job early to look
over the material he will have to mould
Into an aggregation to represent the
Pullman school in a befitting manner.
Tun to Be Rebuilt.
At the Multnomah Hotel yesterday,
Dietz was reluctant to discuss football
at all. After considerable cross-examining
he did vouchsafe the information
that he would practically have to re
build his team this year.
"When Brown Joined Uncle Sam's
forces he left my team In a serious
predicament, because I figured on build
ing my squad, around him," said Dietz.
"Brown was a wonderful quarterback
and, while I did not want to see him
go. It was a commendable act.
We have lost a number of our best
players. In fact, it looks like we must
build an entire new team. But I guess,
at "that. I will not be any worse otl
than the rest of the schools In the con
ference. "I will attend the Northwest Confer
ence meeting in Spokane this month,
but I cannot say at this time what
action we will take regarding the
freshman rule. It will depend entirely
upon what the student body recom
mends as to how we shall vote regard
ing this Important matter. I do not be
lieve we should allow the freshman
to play In intercollegiate games, al
though I will not suffer, no matter
what way it is decided. Our institu
tion at Pullman has nowhere near the
enrollment as has the University of
Washington, but we are willing to take
our chances with the material we have
who are eligible under the present con
ference ruling."
Pullman Willing to Play.
With regard to the probable selec
tion of Washington State College to
represent the West against some East
ern eleven on New Year's day at Pasa
dena during the Tournament of Roses.
Dietz did not hesitate to say that if
they were invited to play in this classic,
he would see that the finances of his
school were enriched equally with the
team that comes out from the East.
"If they can pay those Eastern
elevens S8000 or some such amount like
they did to Pennsylvania and expect
us to go down there for the glory of
upholding the Western gridiron honors
they are badly mistaken," said Dietz
"It is the schools In the West which
need the money for their athletic fund
much more than a school like Penn
sylvania that is situated in a big
metropolis like Philadelphia.
"Just think what a wonderful thing
it would be for the University of Ore
gon or the Oregon Aggies to be en
riched by about S2500 or S3000. We are
in the same boat, and now that the
West has proved on two different oc
casions that it has teams which equal
the best the Atlantic Coast can send
out, if not better, let the people- who
make all the money at Pasadena give
the Western team a little more than a
nice hotel, plenty to eat and automo
biles in which Ui ride. At the Pacific
Coast conference meeting I am going
to ask that whatever team is selected
to play, to demand an equal share of
whatever amount is paid to the East
ern team. The money should go to the
athletic fund of whatever institution is
asked to uphold Western honors."

who is in the employ of the Federal

international boundary line between
Montana and North Dakota and the
British possessions, has written to a
friend here saying that "If you Yam
hill farmers could see the failure in
crops for 200 miles along this north
ern border thin season you would thank
the Lord for your 'half crop" in old
Yamhill and do mighty little complain
ing." Mr. Hefty says there is not enough
for next year's seed, and no feed but
the dried-up prairie grass. Wild prai
rie hay is now $30 a ton and no oats

these homesteaders are plowing and
making ready for another season."
