fans gathered to root for Hogan and
his team. They carried every device
for noise-making they could rake up

four out of the six games played
from Vernon, but the race was far
from being settled. Each club had
two more series to play and the Mack
men kept' on winning and took five
out of seven games from the Angels,
while the best Vernon could do with
the Oakland club was two games won
out of seven played.
While the Beavers piled up a good
margin over the Tigers, the race was

to overtake the Mackmen.

"Red" Baldwin Is going ' to play
Winter baseball with the Maxwell
dub in the Winter League at San

town, so the Beaver catcher will be
right in his glory. If Ralph Pinelli
winters at Richmond. Cal., he, too,
will play in the Winter League.
Rumors are current in San Francisco
nd Oakland that Cliff Blankenship.
former manager of the Salt Lake club,
la destined to guide the destinies of
the Oakland club next season. Blan
kenship is now conducting a billiard
hall and bowling alley in San Fran

but it is almost a certainty that it
will not be the Oakland, club.
San Francisco writers continue to
take flings at Hen Berry and the Seals.
If they give the Bay City boys the
"raz" when they are loading the
league, goodness knows what would
liappen if the Seals were in the cellar
position, and yet they say the world
loves a winner. Ouch!

Magnates Will Hold Meeting Octo

to Action and Personnel of
Teams In Organization.
Frank Patrick, president of the Pa
cific Coast Hockey Association, has
called a special meeting of that organ-
zatlon to take place in Seattle Tues

discussing the prospects for a league
on the Pacific Coast this coming Win
ter. It is expected that at this meeting
the magnates will decide on the final
make-up of the league.
At this time the hockey situation is
decidedly unsettled, owing to conscrip
tion in Canada and this country. By the
time this meeting takes place, however.
It will be known Just what members of
the different clubs in the Pacific Coast
circuit will be called to the colors, and
the directors of the league will there
fore by able to go ahead with their
plans and make all arrangements necessary.
Schedule 1m Arranged.
The annual meeting of the Pacific
Coast Hockey Association will be held
in Vancouver next month. Officers will
be elected and the schedule for the
season drawn up, as well as other im
portant business transacted.
Manager Edgar Bryan, of the Port
land Ice Palace, is ready to put his
team in the league. The Portland mag
nate will attend the meeting, although
he knew nothing regarding it until in
formed by The Oregonian representa
tive last night.
vv e are ready and always have been
ready," said Manager Bryan. "We have
most of our players here and they are
anxious to get into harness again. We
have not sent out any contracts, desir
ing to wait until such time as the fu
ture of the league was assured.
Canadian. Would Return Here.
'Of last year's team, we have resid
ing in Portland, Johnson, Tobin, Mur
ray. Dunderdale, Harris and Barbour.
Marples. Irvin and O'Loughlin are in
Winnipeg and a friend from that city
recently informed me that they were
anxious to return to Portland if satis
factory arrangements could be made
with the Canadian government.
"Charlie Uksila, who played with the
Portland team in 1915, is back again.
and chances are we could get his serv
ices, lou can say that, we are ready
to put a team in the league and start
the ball rolling any time the others
are ready."

FRANK TABERSKI, the "Silent Pole"
of Schenectady, champion pocket
billiardist of the world, surely is a
wonder of wonders. Let's give the
handsome raven-locked York Stater an

Certainly he has earned the sobrinuet.
Whoever thought he would pull that
match with Joe Concannon out of the
fire last week at Buffalo? From far
behind in his previous championship
contests with Layton, Greenleaf, Ralph,
lireuter, .Mat tiro and Allen he came on
and won out in sensational style, turn-

into victory and causing the fans to
marvel at his gameness. but against

to entertain a thought of saving the
emblem.

Since Start of -Their Career as Pro
fessional Ice Skaters They Have
Appeared In Many Cities.
Walter J. Parks and Thelma Deutch.
the fancy skating team now in Portland
as the feature of the opening week of
the Ice Palace, are two young profes
sionals rapidly becoming known as the
greatest in their line in the world.
The pair have only been on the circuit
a year, but in that time have made
reputation throughout the United States
for the original figures and "turns'
they have evolved on the ice.
Mr. Parks is well known here. When
the Ice Palace first opened two years
ago he acted as instructor, and made
a host of friends for himself among the
amateurs throughout the city. Miss
Peutch is the daughter of a prominent
San Francisco business man.
Since they started on their career
as professional entertainers a year ago
they have played the ice rinks of Chi
cago, Kansas City and towns through
out the Middle West. They came to
Portland for the opening of the Ice
Palace from San Francisco, where their
turn was the feature of the Winter
Garden and Techeau Tavern.
With Babe Young, the dainty little
deaf-and-dumb miss who is known as
the world's greatest child skater, the
Parks and Ieutch team are here for
the opening week only, leaving Satur.
day for Seattle, where they are to give
an exhibition before going East.
The British government plans to
supply motor tractors to be used on
the additional cultivated lands in the
United Kingdom. It is expected that
between 6000 and 7000 machines will be

trick, but finished with a margin of
58 balls to the good, leaving Concannon
stranded and the spectators too stunned
to realize it.
Taberski's high run was 38, made on
the last night of play. He had scored a
36 on the second night, which was bet
ter than Concannon's best for the
match. They started the final block at
8 P. M. and completed It at 2:20 next
morning. That's going some for one
game six hours and 20 minutes. No
wonder the sporting editors never ex
pect to get the final result of a match
in time for press when Taberski is go
ing through one of his now famous pro
crastinating finishes.
Thus has the great Polish player
proved himself a champion second to
none, not even De Oro when the latter
held sway among the pocket stars. He

Kreuter, Maturo, Allen, Stoutenburgh
and Concannon, one after the other and
if he wins his next two matches against
Kreuter and Greenleaf he will take per
manent possession of the Brunskick
diamond emblem. "
Should Taberski beat Kreuter and
Greenleaf, the challengers in line, it
will render the challenges of Keogh
and Maturo void and some time this
Winter necessitate the holding of a
big tournament in order to create a
new champion, according to custom.
