JAMES J. RICHARDSON.
- The failure of the Vernon baseball
team to arrive from the south yester
day in time for their scheduled clash
with the Beavers precluded any chance
the Beavers had of stepping forward
In the percentage column and inci
dentally brought forth the announce
ment that there will be a double-header
at the Vaughn-street lot next Saturday,
tarting at -1 :30 o'clock.
While the boys were at ease the
Oaks gave Salt Lake a 4-to-3 trimming
and the Angels managed to pull the
Seals down the ladder a few pegs, all
of which tends to make Beaver fans
Joyf uL
Double-headers are a thorn in the
Bide of the managers and players, but,
from a spectator's standpoint, they are
very much appreciated, especially if the
Beavers are on a winning streak and
have a team to battle that is "meat"
for them like the Tigers were the last
time they collided at Vernon, where
the Beavers won seven of the nine
games played.
Two successive days of rest ought to
inject an unusual amount of "pep" into
the Beavers and put them on edge for
the week's series.
"Lefty" James is due to start the
fireworks today and if he works any
where near as good as he did last time
out he should subdue the "firebrand"
and his crew.
The arrival of the Tigers without a
eouthpaw is a very pleasing incident
to Manager McCredie. Frank Decan
nierre is shouldering a gun eomewhere
in . But Stovall has a formidable
array of right-handers in Art Fromme,
Jack Quinn. Roy Mitchell and a young
ster named Cook from the fcjan An
tonio Club of the Texas League.
"I will start Cook in the first game
against the Beavers." said Manager
Stovall last night. "He is a big right
hander who was highly recommended
to me and has been with the club for
two weeks.
"Meusel, a brother of 'Irish Meusel.
of the Los Angeles club, will play
xirst. I don't think the Beavers are
going to walk away with this series."
"Sua" Sutherland. the Portland
youngster, who was with Tacoma in the
Northwestern League for two seasons
and went to Sioux City when the
Northwestern League "blew," re
turned home yesterday and visited the
McCredies. He asked that they try and
make a deal whereby he could play
with Portland next Spring. The Judge
promised to take the matter up with
Ed Hanlou.

Franklin Hih School .completely
outclassed the High School of Com
merce in the opening- game of the
1917 football season yesterday, and
won by a score of 64 to 0. "Pudge"
Brown. Franklin's famous all-around
athlete, carried off the honors of the
day, scoring- four touchdowns. Thomp
son, left halfback, was a close second
to Brown, scoring three touchdowns.
The cause of the one-sided score
was the weak, line with which Com
merce attempted to stop the onslaughts
of the Fast Siders. The work of the
Commerce back field, individually and
as a unit, would do credit to any high
school. The line, however, was com
posed of lads who, while they played
their hardest throughout the entire
game, did not work, well together. One
part of the line was always open, and
the Franklin players, quick to sense
their advantage, managed to go
through, the gap for yardage. The
Commerce linesmen, who show fine
possibilities in offensive playing, did
not seize their advantages over
Franklin quickly enough.
Pcniong Worlc Good.
Herbert Penson, the tall, lean, hard-
muscled left tackle of the Financiers,
starred for that aggregation. Follow
ing Pritchard for 35 yards, after be
ing cut off in his first attempt to
block tho end run, he made a flying
tackle, such as has probably never
been equaled in the Interscholastlc
League, and brought down his man
just short of the goal, on the five-
yard line. Frit chard afterward, was
brought back to the starting point tor
running off field in his original ef
fort to dodge the lanky Commerce
tackle.
L-eft tackle seemed to be the star
ring-place for the Commerce players.
James iloy, a Chinese lad, substituting
for Penson duri.g part of the game,
did some wonderfully efficient work,
rarely failing to block his man. Moy
is a new player, and was a bit nervous
while on the field, but when he has
more experience he is likely to prove
a candidate for all-star honors.
While Franklin had little trouble in
making touchdowns, the team found it
difficult to realize on their opportuni
ties to kick goal. In 10 touchdowns they
kicked but four goals. Of these.
"Pudge" Brown kicked two and Badley,
who played a fine game at right half.
was responsible for the remaining two.
The other six attempts were xlukea.
Good Play Abound.
Pickering, substituting for Poulson
on Franklin's right end during the
third quarter, broke into the game like
an all-star. He played his part per
fectly at the receiving end of a. 20
yard triple forward pass, Baurber to
Brown to Pickering, which brought the
ball clear across the goal line for a
touchdown.
Kpps Baurber, playing fullback for
Franklin, also made a quick bid for
the lielight. In the third quarter,
after one minute and 45 seconds of
play, he made a clean 37-yard run
and scored a touchdown.
The game, as a whole, was cleanly
played, with no disputes and but little
time out. Morns Kogoway, the snappy
little Commerce quarterback, was the
only one to receive serious injury.
Rogoway as permanently put out of
the game in the last quarter- with an
injured leg.
The penalties were as follows:
Ftrmt qumrter. Franklin 25 yards. Com
merce 5 yards; second quarter. Franklin
none. Commerce o yards; third quarter.
Franklin, none. Commerce, none; fourth

Collection for Bat and Ball Fund to
Be Taken at Game.
Judge McCredie yesterday received a
telegram from Clark Griffith, manager
of the Washington American League
baseball club, who also is chairman of
the bat and ball fund for the soldier
boys, asking that a collection be taken
up at one of the scheduled games and
that the proceeds be forwarded to Mr.
Griffith at n ashington.
Judge McCredie has decided to take
up the collection at next Sunday's dou
ble-header when the fans will be asked
to contriouie any amount trom one
cent up to wheatever amount they can
afford. There is nothing compulsory
aDout tne proposition.
The question of who would pass the
hat among the fans at next Sun-day's
games was a source or worry to th
Judge, who was advised to bring th
matter to the attention, of the local
Girls' Honor Guard.
