Lest we forget, we say it yet tack tip the old "good-luck" horseshoe for Manager McCredie and his Beavers. If ever a ball team "fussed" with the rab bit's foot the Beavers must have done it previous to yesterday's game, when they outlucked George Stovall and his Tigers in their first scrimmage of the series, score 1 to 0. The only tally of the game which the Beavers were lucky enough to score was made in the eighth inning without the least semblance of a base hit. Farm er was passed to first and was safe at second when GalLoway "mussed" up Charlie Hollocher's bunt, allowing Holly to rest at first. Denny Wilie laid down a sacrifice, which moved Jack Farmer to third and Hollocher to sec ond. The fans- were yelling for a hit from "Williams, who was at bat. Fromme started to walk him, but the Portlander reached out and sent a fly to deep left. Farmer scoring the only run of the game on the throw-in. Fromme declared that the batter il legally stepped out of the box to hit the ball, but Umpire Casey ruled that his point was not well taken. Pitchers Engage In Dnel. It was a pitcher's battle between Penner, for the Beavers, and. Fromme, for Vernon. Penner let the Tigers down with five scattering blows, while Fromme was hit safely four times. Art Fromme, ex-New York Giant, rteld the Beavers hitless during the first four innings. In the fifth, with two down. Bill Rodgers crashed one down past first base, but was forced at second. McCredie's warriors became threaten ing in the sixth and it looked like for one or more runs surely, with the bases crammed and nobody out. But Fromme tightened up-and, the Beavers went out In one-two-three order. Gus Fisher kissed the fence with a drive, which "Walter Uoane managed to touch and. it hopped up against the fence and re turned to his hands, August getting credit for a single. "Frenchy" Penner bunted to Fromme, who threw to sec ond to catch Fisher, Calahan dropping the ball. Farmer trickled a bunt along the first base line, which Meusel thought would roll foul. The ball fooled the first sacker and stayed in the fair zone, all three men being safe ly perched on. the cushions when Meu sel decided the ball was a friend of the Beavers. With three on and not a Beaver out, Fromme "bore" down on the old ball and the next three Beavers to face him went out in succession. Ttgrers Danserous Once. Penner managed to keep his swats well scattered. In only one inning did the Tigers manage to reach third. "With one down in the first inning Vaughn walked, took second on Doane's infield out. and went to third when Pete Daley scratched a hit to Hollocher. That was the nearest the Tigers came to scoring.

POL PEKRITT (LEFT). BEXXT KAUFP (RIGHT). Benny Kauff and Pol Perritt have been fundamentally important in the success of the Giants. Their excellent work has kept the Giants on top throughout the season. Both Kauff and Perritt are seasoned ballplayers and undoubtedly will make an excellent showing in the world's series. There Is not a player in either league who likes his base smacks better than Benny, and there is not a man who Is trying harder than he for the success of his team. Benny has been successful with the ash this season, and will finish high up among the league leaders. Besides being a heavy batter, Benny' is a remarkable fielder and has saved many games with wonderful throws and catches. Pol Perritt has had many ups and downs. Sometimes he is good and other times bad. He started the season rather off-color, but McGraw gradually worked him into excellent form, and he is winning regularly now. He is at present McGraw's premier righthander. Perritt's chances of delivering in the world's series are mighty good, for he is a heady pitcher, and as cool as an icicle in the tightest pinches. can come in on a ball and not even blink an eyelash. Doane lifted one back of the Infield and Farmer raced In and hooked It off his shoetops. Snodgrass was on second the time and Farmer saved the "bacon for the Beavers, as Snodgrasi would surely have scored had it gotten away from him. . McCredie said he would start Houck in today', battle with the Tigers. "Mac" is going o resort to every effort to win this series by a bijr margin. The Bees coming next week will give the Beavers some trouble, so Mac wants to clean up on the Tigers if possible.

GUY BOY WINS 2:25 TROT Handicap Race, Free for AH, Pace or Trot, Is Captured by Remem ber Me, WltU 17 0-Vard Han dicap; Strathell Is Fifth. SALES!, Or., Sept. 26. (Special.) Today was a day of real horse racing at the Oregon State F'alr, and a crowd that packed both grandstands and lined the rails saw some great heats and finishes. The $2000 2:08 pace, the feature race of the day, went to Hal Paxton in straight heats, but that dCesn't indi cate that he didn't -have to step out in every heat toget in on the long side of the money. In the first heat the field Of seven got off to a fine start. After the quar ter Hal Paxton, College Cent, Rico and Indian Hal were bunched, while Lena Patch, O. U. C. and Haltamont trailed out behind.. The fast little Hal Paxton passed the half mile in 1:02 'j, and everyone knew that there was a real race in prospect. The second heat developed into an ideal horse race when Hal Paxton and College Gent gave as classy an exhibi tion of fast pacing as ever has been seen at the fair grounds track. In the third heat the same kind of a scrap developed. College Gent had things looking dark for Hal Paxton until Col lege Gent broke and Rico nosed him out for second place. Gut Boy lu Victor. The second race, ttie 2:25 trot, also developed some real racing. Guy Boy took this trot in straight heats, but he had his troubles before he finally won the third heat. The first heat was really a fine race between Cavalier and Salem Boy for second place, but in the last quarter Salem Boy gave Guy Boy a scare that didn't leave him until the finish of the final heat. Cavalier Gale broke in the last quarter and let Oregona in for third place. In the third heat it was all Guy Boy until almost under the wire, when Salem Boy gave him a stiff trot with a terrible burst of speed Just at the wire, which came too late, how eveq to take the heat from Guy Boy. Remember Me Takes Race, A unique feature was the handicap race, free-for-all, pace or trot, which Remember Me, with a handicap of 170 yards, won. Strathell, scratch horse, made a wonderful race to come in fifth, while Helen Hall, owned by A. H. Lea, secretary of the State Fair Board, took second, with a 120-yard handicap, and had there been a little more distance to the wire she would have nosed out Remember Me.

The University of California eleven, .which was defeated by the Olympic Club eleven last Saturday, seems unable to acquire even the sim plest of football rudiments.

The United States Marines, under TAKE A BLOOD TONIC BEFORE WINTER Revitalize Tour Blood and Pat Tour System In Condition to Resist the Hardships of Winter. It is the strong-blooded men' and women who are vigorous and healthy In Winter, and who are not incon venienced by the cold, wet days. Wet feet don't bother them, sudden changes cause no inconvenience, and even when cold is "caught," because of contact. n a close, stuffy room, witn some one already infected, the trouble seldom lasts over a day or two. This highly esired state of health Is brought bout by having rich, pure blood, un- contaminated by impurities of any kind. You may possibly think your blood s all right you are not troubled by outward signs. Yet you have felt tired nd lan-guid, you have lost some sleep had some minor ailments at times. ut you regard yourself as in "fairly good condition physically." This may be true, but you should take nothing for granted, you should not '.guess that you are all right. The thing to do is to make yourself right by taking a good blood tonic and invigorator, such as S. S. S. It is the best known blood tonic on the market today.

Oregon Agricultural College will be met October 27, and No vember 3 will be the game with the University of Washington.

Frank Chance thinks that it is about a toss-up between the White Sox and Giants. However, were he to place a bet he would be in clined to get his money down on the Sox. The American League seems to have the 'breaks' in the world series in re cent years, and its pitching seems to stack up better than those in the Na tional," said Chance. "Both clubs play brilliant but erratic ball, and this makes it a difficult series to pick, a couple of errors at critical times may decido the whole thing."- LONGW00D TENNIS ENDS TODAY Miss Evelyn Scars and Sirs.
