Washing ton's style of play was a complete sur prise, for after playing season after season of old-style, straight football, they depended, on forward passes yes terday to win. turing the first quarter of the game the Commercial lads had a shade the better of their opponents, and kept the play in Washington territory. Com merce kicked off, and then got the ball on a fumble. The Financiers then put the ball on Washington 10-yard line, but here hit a stone-wall resist ance and lost on downs. Fumble Followed by Gain. In the second quarter Fullback Kitchie made a bad fumble, recovered it and dove through the line for 10 yards. From then on Washington backed the Commerce line down the field and scored the first touchdown, Pete Glass carrying the ball over the line. . Immediately after the first touch down Washington began experiment ing with overhead passes. LaKoche and Hitchcock pulled off a combination that netted the side 15 yards. LaKoche then shot another pass, this time for 25 yards, when a peculiar incident oc curred. A Commerce man leaped up and blocked the transfer, only to have the ball drop into the hands of Right End Arey. who stepped across the line for another touchdown. Lindsay kicked both goals. Two more passes were completed in this quarter, one when Clough recovered a fumble by Ritchie, and transferred the ball 15 yards to Ritichie before the other players real ized what had happened. Arey made a difficult catch of the other pass, which was thrown 10 yards by La Roche. In the third quarter Pete Glass did wonderful work and deserved the honor of scoring the touchdown which re sulted. Bauer and Ritchie each made an end run that helped things along. The final quarter was harder fought than the others, but Washington, out weighing Commerce 10 or 15 pounds to the man. drove the Financiers' line back, and La Roche put the ball across. Fake Punt Nets) Gain. At the start of the game. Commerce got away for an end run on a fake punt play. It was good for 15 yards. On another fake play Quarterback Rogoway backed up as if to shoot a forward pass: the Washington line spread out, and then Rogoway secretly slipped the ball to Fullback Wagner, who tore through the line for 15 yards. Commerce tried several forward passes, but Washington blocked them all. l'ete Olass was the star for Wash ington, backed by good playing by Kitchie, Arey and Bauer. Henry Wag ner and Herbert Penson shared top lionors for the Financiers, the former proving himself to be the best fullback In the league.

ANGELS AND SEALS ARE NECK AND NECK With Only Four Games to Be Played Result of Sea son in Balance. KILLEFER WORKS WONDERS Los Angeles Leader Straightens Out Players After Taking Over Command From Chance, and Harmony Now Prevails. BY JAMES J. RICHARDSON. The Los Angeles baseball club pocketed another victory yesterday when they trimmed the Portland Beavers and took the lead in the race for the Pacific Coast League pennant. Del Howard's Oaks were ready for the San Francisco Seals and after ten innings of fighting the Oaks emerged from the fracas on the long end of a l-to-0 score, which greased the skids for the Seals to slide Into second place by one point. It was the first time the Seals have been ousted from their exultant perch on the top rung of the ladder In the race for the gonfalon and incidentally it was the initial entry of the Angels into the much coveted position at the head of the percentage column. W ith four more games to play the standing of the two clubs last night was Los Angeles, .5533; San r rancisco, 5528. That the remaining four games will be hotly contested goes without argu ent. There is no love lost between the Beavers and Angels as far as rivalry is concerned. The Oakland and San Francisco players get along like two strange bulldogs. If Los Angeles should win all four games and San Francisco should do likewise the standing on the last day of the season will be: Los Angeles, .5619; San Francisco. .5613. The showing of the Los Angeles club can be attributed mainly to the efforts of Wade ("Red") Killefer, who took the reigns after Frank Chance had laid them down in disgust in the early part of the season. The Angels have made a steady, slow climb towards Pennant ville. and they are making things mighty interesting for Hen Berry's tribe at this moment. The Los Angeles club has a well- balanced lineup, and on their last trip to this city Manager Killefer said that he would lead the Coast League race before the season was over, if his club could only elude the "jinx" which has so often followed the Angels just when they were about to start their drive. The one big asset on the Los Angeles club is harmony. When Killefer took over the managerial title after Chance relinquished hold, the first heart-to heart confab Killefer had with his men he told them he wanted harmony on the team and that he would have it if he had to pitch "Scotty" Findlay, the club trainer, and use the batboy for a catcher. And Killefer succeeded in not only getting what he desired of the Hague' stuff, but he injected enough "pep" into the Angels to carry them along until they have at last reached the top, which they must fight tootn and nail to hold. A slip by either team from now on will undoubtedly cost them the buntin Los Angeles' pitchers, as well as the facals , are ready for the final drive, and, like all sports which are free from taint, the best we in Portland can offer is let the best team win. The news which emanated yesterday from New York that Miller Huggins had been signed to manage the New York Americans by President Jacob Ruppert, of the Yankees, means that Bill Donovan is slated for the discard. Huggins, who has been a great player in his day. has been at the tiller for the St. Louis Cardinals, and only a few weeks ago was mentioned as & possible successor to Fielder A. Jones until the rumor was nipped in the bud by Phil Ball, the Brown's owner, who made denial of the report. Huggins will be one of many who have been signed to try and boost the Yankees out of the second division in the American League race. The bib lical saying, "Many are called, but few are chosen," might well be applied to the task of managing the New York i ankees. Many have been signed to preside at the helm of the Yanks, but to date none have been successful in making a con tender of the Yankees, although the material is conceded to be there. Among those who have "booted the job have been Harry Wolverton and Frank Chance. Both thought they were fitted to pilot the Yankees to a pennant, but failed. .Huggins knows baseball from soup to squirrel's food and ought to be able to do as much as his predecessors. Erickson. the Seals' big slabster, is still leading the Pacific Coast flingers and seems destined to get by the sea son without any opposition as the pre mier hurler of the 1917 season. "Speed" Martin, of Oakland, tops Erickson In the percentage column, bu has only worked In 15 games as com pared with Erickson s 45, winning 3 and losing 14. Houck leads the Port land regulars with 22 won and 14 lost. Joe Dai ley carries his average in his vest pocliet. The "string bean" heaver won three and lost two. Kenneth Pen ner won 21 and lost 21. Brenton is on the wrong side of the ledger with 15 wins and 21 losses. "Lefty" James won 6 and lost 10. WASHINGTON HAS 3 CONTESTS California, Oregon Aggies and Pull man Gaines on Schedule.

That Walter Johnson, the premier hurler of the Washington American League Baseball club, has been sold to the Cleveland Americans is the infor mation which "Swede" Risberg brought to the Coast and divulged to a San Francisco sport writer. Risberg says that the deal has al ready been transacted and that he re ceived his information from one who is in a position to know. With John son pitching for Cleveland, the Indians will be a hard club to beat next sea son. Johnson was a wonder with a tail-end club, and with Cleveland he ought to burn the American League up next season with the hitting and field ing he is sure to receive.
