RICHARDSON; In his desperation to win Manager Howard, of the Oaks, selected "Speed" Martin to battle the on-coming- Beavers yesterday, but McCredie's men were not to be denied and Martin's benders yielded them IS swats, enough to core three runs and the fourth straight victory of the series. Penner baffled the Oaks with his low ball and let the trans-bay outfit down with six blngles. which grave two runs. With the score tied at the beginning; of the ninth inning both teams tried to put over the winning run. Penner retired the Oaks in one-two-three order, but McCredle sent his boys to bat with a "do-or-dle" spirit and Denny W'ilie, the hero from Waco, singled to right; Williams doubled to right and Wilie went to third. TVllle Perforata 5ew Stunt. What Denny did at the plate when he tried to score on Griggs' grounder to Stumpf was never before seen or heard of in these parts. The peppery little outfielder saw Mitze in position ready to receive Stumpfs throw, but Wilie, Instead of running up to the plate, figured he was an easy out, and . turned and walked to the bench. In the meantime Mitze dropped the ball, ' but Wilie kept on walking to the j bench despite the pleas of the fans and players. Mitze recovered the ball and Umpire Frary called Wilie out for run ning out of line. This run would have won the fame had Wilie touched the plate. So, with Williams on third, it was up to reliable Bill Rodgers to come through with his fourth safe swat of the game and score Williams with the winning run. This he did. A number of the fans yelled to Wilie to return and touch the plate, Mitze having thrown the ball back to Martin. This would have made no difference because Wilie ran out of line before he neared the plate. Penner pitched a corking good game and was stingy with his hits until the seventh, when the Oaks managed to climb on for two hits, two sacrifices and a "boot," which waa . enough to score two runs and tie the score. With two out in the third inning Lane tripled to left center, but died when Mensor went out, Rodgers to Gardner. . First Score of Beavers la Second. The Beavers chalked up their first tally in the second, when Griggs singled to center and took second on Rodgers' single. Paddy Siglin doubled to the right field fence and Griggs crossed with the Initial run in the fourth Siglin singled to left, took second on Fisher's out and scored from second on Hollocher's Infield hit. The Beavers still continue to run wild on the Oakland catchers. Farmer pilfered twice yesterday. Farmer's record for the four games thla series is six-twelfths of a dozen stolen bases. The Oaks pulled off a triple play In the fifth inning, but it only went for a double because there was one down at the time. With Griggs on second and Rodgers on first, Siglin lined to Martin, who threw to Stumpf, doubling Griggs at second, and by a quick throw to first Rodgers was nailed.

LEADER MAY BE CAPTAIN First Contest of Season Probably Will Be October IS With Ore gon Aggies, Willamette and Washington to Be Met. George Berts, manager of the Multno mah Amateur Athletic Club, called the first meeting of his football warriors last night, and from the turnout a strong team should be developed. Leo J. ("Tick") Malarkey, ex-TJnl-verslty of Oregon halfback and present coach of the Columbia University squad, will have charge of the back field coaching. "Tick" is a first-class coach and should bring out the best there is in the material offered. Dom Callicrate, ex-Columbia coach and one of the greatest ends ever turned out by Notre Dame, will be in charge of the ends, and George Phil brook, another Notre Dame man- will look after the line. It Is probable that Elmer Leader, last year's husky tackle, will be elected captain. Klmer has had the experience that a captain needs. Clayton Sharp and Eddie Humphrey will compete for quarterback. They are former Multnomah Club players. Oscar Crlscoll and Jake RIsley will be opponents for center, but the odds rest with Jake, as he has had more ex perience. Risley last year won the place of All-Northwest center on the mythical team. Johnny Murphy and Eugene Murnhv. of Columbia fame, will try out. Johnny la a fast and accurate end, while Eu gene, or "Moo," as he is known, can play quarterback, holding that position on the Notre Dame freshman team last season. George Watson. ex-Willamette star: Mike Block, ex-Columbia tackle- Tom Loutit, last season's lineman; Town send Kurtz, another veteran; O. J. Hos- tora, i c Dressier, Os Day, R. Ken nedy, Ronald Kern and M. R. Hempy are candidates for line positions. Dress ier is a former Culver star and Day played with the club for several sea sons. Wendell "Skin" Powers. Johnny Par sons, Eddie Duffy, Andrew Feisrtinger rorm a quartet of stars that should wreck the opposition of the best teams. Powers is a big plunger and can punt and can hit a line harder than a Ger man tank. Duffy should make a good fullback. Feistinger Is a crackerjack end. The first game of the season prob ably will be with the University of Oregon at Eugene on October 13. From the present plans the University of Oregon and the Oregon "Aggies" will be played twice, Willamette and the University of Washington also will be met- .

Four class events were raced today in the fifth day's meeting of the grand cir cuit and In every event a favorite was victor. No stakes were on the pro gramme and the class events proved to furnish little competition, even in the split-heat events, the 2:12 pace and the 2:12' trot. Horses that dropped a heat through a mistake won the other three 'rather Impressively. The 2:04 pacers were so outclassed by Butt Hale that he had to do none of his miles in better than 2:05 to win. Zma Jay also had an easy time, winning the 2:12 trot in slow time, save for the second heat. Kelley De Forrest walked away with the S-year-old trot and Uhlan Simmons had the speed of the party in the 2:12 pace.
