"Duke" Houck was wobbly at times yesterday, but with some terrific hitting- from the heavy artillery of the Beavers he managed to subdue the Vernon Tigers in the second contest of the series, score 7 to 2. The Beavers pounded Hovlik, whom Manager Stovall delegated to conquer the Mackmen, for a total of nine hits, which included a triple, four doubles and a quartet of singles, and this col lection of safe swats added to fquf bases on balls gave the Beavers their ecven tallies. McCredie's men started the scoring before Hovlik had a chance to get his "souper" warmed up in the first ses sion. "With one down Hollocher walked and stole second. Wilie walked. A double to the right fence scored Hol - locher and Wilie reached third. Griggs went out, Hovlik. to Meusel, Wilie scoring. The Beavers came back In the third Inning with three bingles which added , another brace of runs. Farmer pickled Tone to deep left-center for three bases. Hollocher hit a fast one to left for two bases, scoring Farmer. When Cook dropped one of Hovlik's shoots Hol locher rambled to third and later scored on a single to left. Beaver Score at Intervals. To prove that their scoring was no fluke, the Beavers rested in the fourth inning and scored two more tallies in ' the fifth. McCredie had the boys work ins every other inning yesterday. Houck bounced one off Rodney Vaughn's shins in the fifth and was 'safe at first when Vaughn failed to recover it in time to throw the Beaver ' pitcher out. Farmer laid one down along the first-base line and beat Hovlik's throw to first, which got away from Meusel, Houck going to third on the error. The two Beaver runners gave the old "beat it" sign and off they rambled for a double steal, Houck scoring. Farmer went to third on Hollocher's infield out and -scored when Wilie retired via the Callahan-to-Meusel route for the sec ond out, Hovlik managed to hold the Beavers 'runless for two innings, but McCredie ordered "full speed ahead" in the ninth, and Charlie Hollocher poked the ball - to the right-field fence for two bases, ;;it being his second double of the day. j'Wilie walked. A scratch hit to third - base filled the bases, and when Art Origgs knocked one to deep center for the first out Hollocher scored on the r throw-in. f'ook Dlorku Attempted Theft. 4 Wilie and Williams each tried to - steal third on Cook in the ninth inning, but he nailed them both by perfect pegs to tialloway. The extent of the Tigers' scoring jjj came in the fourth inning, when they pounded Houck for three hits, which, together with a base on balls, netted " them their only two scores of the name. The fireworks came after two ; Tigers were retired. Fete Daley walked and went to third on Meusel's single ' to center, and scored when Williams made an inaccurate peg to third base, which got by Paddy Slglin and rolled to the fence. In the mix-up at third ; base Umpire Finney collided with Pete Daley and allowed the Tiger to go home on account of Finney's inter- fering. Daley would have reached the plate before the ball, even had Finney noi ineu to pun uii a xa in u i n xsauey circus stunt. - .

FORMER COAST LEAGUE INFIELDER IS SELECTED BY THE WHITE SOX MANAGER TO PLAY SHORTSTOP IN WORLD SERIES. ! - ' V Copyright Underwood & Underwood. Bl'CK" WEAVER. When Manager Rowland decided to play "Buck" Weaver at short In the coming world series, he did so only after mature deliberation. Weaver is a wonderful .shortstop, but his hitting has not been up to the standard this season. "Buck" is a product of the Pacific Coast League, and formerly played with San Francisco, from which club he was graduated to the major ranks. That his work will be closer ly watched by the fans of the Pacific Coast in the coming series goes without saying. Passed ball. Cook. Runs responsible for, Houck 2. Hovlik 0. Time, 1:30. Umpires, Finney and Casey. Notes of the Game. The Beavers jumped right out in front of the Tigers In yesterday's matinee. They scored two runs every other Inning until the seventh, when they took pity on the lowly Tigers and laid off until the ninth. Byron Houck did not have his usual "stuff" yesterday, but even at that he fooled the Tigers. McCredie says it doesn't do Houck any good to lay off too long. Byron was a bit wild, but always managed to pull himself together at the right time. When Jack Farmer "kissed" that bail for a triple he showed the" fans how fast he could go when he had to. It took a 10-sec-ond man to turn that kind of a clout into a triple. We would like to see Farmer and Lea tangle for about 100 yards down the home stretch. Hovlik was responsible for five of the seven runs which the Heavers scored. He appeared not to have even a "prayer" on the ball at least Jack banner ana Lnariie Hollocher thought so. mm While the Beavers were moving one game ahead of .500 the Oaks managed to pull Salt Lake down a notch and the Angels climbed at the expense of the heals. Let s hope the Angels keep the good work up and Lel Howard s tribe can get more than an even break with Salt Lake. This race isn't settled by any meanR.

MISS RICO WINS 2:20 PACE Lolo Captures First Two Heats of Special Pace for $400 Purse, and One-Mile Run Is Won by Anna Phaon in 1:48. SALEM, Or., Sept. 27. (Special.) Guy Boy, with James Stewart up, cap tured the 2:13 trot for a $2000 purse. winning in three straight heats. There is not much more to say about the race that was billed for the main attrac tion on the card, except that Baby Lally was second, Donde Lopez third and George M. Patterson fourth. In the second heat Baby Lally caused a ripple of excitement when she nosed out Donde Lopez at the wire for second place. In the third heat George M. Patterson was distanced. This didn't happen to him because the flag was dropped on him, because it wasn't, but he -forgot that he was In a trotting race and galloped most of the way around the mile circuit to his driver's chagrin and his own humiliation Race Is Closely Fongbt. The real spectacle of the afternoon's racing was the first heat in the 2:20 pace. .Miss itico and Helen Hal had a hard battle at the finish. Bubbles also figured in this heat, as she sneaked up behfnd Helen Hal and was beaten by less than half a length. It was one of the wildest scrambles of horseflesh at the wire seen here for many a day. In the second iieat of. the same race Helen Hal had a start which seemed to give her everything her own way, but Miss Kico passed her and she broke, allowing Bubbles to go to sec ond and also giving the same Bubbles a close shave at the wire. In the third heat Helen Hal also took the lead and grabbed the pole from Miss Rico, but Miss Rico passed her again on the last turn. Bubbles made another frantic effort, but broke on the stretch and Miss Rico was allowed three straight heats. Lolo Wins Two Heats. In the special pace the, first heat was easy for Lolo, although Bertie Seattle made a noble drive from the turn. Lady B. P., who had been ill the night be fore with a high fever, but was entered on a long chance, broke a hobble and fell near the three-quarters pole. The second heat of this race also was snap for Lolo. although Remember Me caused some fun when she went by I. R. MacGresor by the tip of her nose for second place. In the third heat Lolo started off strong, but laid down be fore reaching the half mile and Remem ber Me took the beat wtihout an effort.

Every soldier who joins the United States Army Is to e taught how to box. Not only that, but he is to be taught right, by competent boxing in structors engaged for that purpose, and he is to be encouraged to put his knowledge to the i test in frequent bouts.

Hunting Season for Chinas and Ducks Opens Monday, October First No doubt you expect to be one of the many hundreds who expect togo out and get the limit of birds. To make assurance doubly sure we would advise you to fill your am munition bag with Selby's Black Loaded Shells Our stock of these shells is new and fresh, which insures the hunter of a quick, even pattern that invariably hits the mark aimed at and brings down the game, and removes the handicap so often encountered by those using old, carried-over shells, which deteri orate with age and lack the power to penetrate and kill. We are, as usual, prepared to supply the hunter with everything in the way of equip ment for his hunting trip in GUNS, OUT ING CLOTHING, HATS, BOOTS AND SHOES down to DOG COLLARS for his dogs.
