Score: RUCK EXHIBITION GAME IS TODAY Loral l Tangle With. Vancouver Soldiers on Vaughn-Street Lot in First of Three Contest Series. 17 Plajer on Roster. With million dollars' worth of "pep- and all rarln to go. Manager BiU Fisher and hla Buckarooa arrived last Bight from the training camp at Pendleton and will stare their first exhibition cam on the Vaughn-street lot thla afternon with the Vancouver soldiers, starting at I o'clock. The players were all tanned up. the weather encountered In the Roundup city havlnr put the boys In great shape for their race during the com ing season. Jack Kibble, third baseman, arrived yesterday morning from Montana, and was waiting for the balance of tbe squad when Ihey arrived at the Seward Hotel last niaht. Kibble plaed with the Portland Colts a few seasons ago. During the last couple of years he played third for Evansvllle In the Central League until that rlrrult hit the rocks. The Vurkaroo roster consists of Catchers Peterson and Cox. rurbers llapp, tihoup. Klrwln. HcKinley. Clow and Milrhell. Infleldera Usher. Haney Kitter and KibbU. and Outfielders Lee. Mullivan. Denipsey. Feuerbom and Tick. t ex May Dm Sfaalc TVlth the arrival of Kibble to hold dosa the third sack. It Is most likely that Klsher will start Dick Cox catcher. Me likes tbe "pep" Cox puts lato his work, and says the 1'asaUena youth will make a cork lie good bark stop. In the event that Cox dons the pad and mask Peterson will be retained as utility msn unless one of the other players bumps him out of the Job. The plf-hlng staff is what worries Flshrr. Kapp. southpaw, and Hionp and Klrwln. right-hander, are th three experienced men on the buckaroo burling staff. Itapp and Shoup showed a lot of stuff In training camp, and Fisher la satisfied with their work. Kirwin la a veteran, but whether or not he can cut the mustard remains to be seen. McKintrr. Clow and Mitchell are the trio of youngsters who have been dis playing their wares at Tendleton. Mc Kinley and Clow have been all to the -gravy" In their performances. Mc- Klnley la a Seattle lad with a dandy apltbalL He also throws what he terms a forkbalL and almost stood the Buckaroo batters on their heads In some of the exhibition games, and his biggest asset Is nerve. He Is confident of his ability to make one of the reg ular bertha on the pitching, staff. ( low la Mr M-" Clow, the La Prne youngster. Is the Iron man of the Ituckaroo pitching staff. They raised this Burkaroo baby on the best that Central Oregon pro- . duces in the "eats" line until he Is of such husky proportions that be does not know his own strength. He openly claims he can pitch every day In the week and twice on Sunday morning before going to church. He ought to develop into a pretty fair pitcher. Mitchell showed good in the first gama he worked against the Pendleton team, but after that his performances were very panicky. He Is too Inexperi enced to get by this season, and will most likely draw his release when It cornea time to prune the aquad down to the limit of H players. The Vancouver soldiers, who play the Ttuekarooa today, have a number of former professional stars on their ros ter. Frank Jacobs, who pitched for fuskngee In the Western Association, and Kwart. who twirled for Wheeling in the Central League, are the two hurlers who promise to make the Buck aroo step lively In the three games tha soldiers have achcduled with the Portland warriors. The soldiers will probably line up for today's game as follows: Jacobs. Ewart and Bodley. pitchers: Mullen and Holmes, catchers: Stradman and liiinn, first base: Holland, second base: Cohen, third base: Welgant. shortstop; Kelly. Altman. Borden and Johns, out fielder. Klsher will start Feuerhorn behind the bat today and use Cox at third base until Jack Kibble's arm gets In shape. Fisher will give all of his players a chance to vhow off before the Portland fans la the exhibition games scheduled before the opening game of the cham pionship season next Tuesday. Th Portland team will line up as follows: Kibble or Teck. right field: Hancy. second base; Sullivan, renter field: Lee. lert field: Fisher or Temp sey. first base: Cox. third base: Keuer born. catcher: Rtiier. shortstop: Clow, Lapp. Sboup and M.'Klnl. t. pitchers.

HECKLERS GET NO SYMPATHY Fred Clarke Says Ball Near Enough to lie Called Strike Can Be Hit. Major league batsmen who made) a practice of heckling the umpires for doubtful balls and strikes never found any sympathy with Fred Clarke. The ex-Pirate leader once expressed truism which should be drilled into every boy who gets into the National paitim. Wilbur Cooper brought out Clarke's little line following an argument In one of the games played by the PI rates this Spring at Jacksonville. Sev eral of th PtttKburg batters were com plaining that the umpire "missed" eome that were an Inrh or two from the corner of the plate. ell. hoys." remarked Cooper.

Foster and Runquist, a lanky Portland lad, are the two members of this year's squad who are showing real varsity caliber. Dow Wilson and Lloyd Still will be the entries In the high Jump and pole vault, and Wilson will also assist Fos ter In the hurdles and the 220. For the first time in years there is a scarcity of distance and middle distance men on Hayward's squad. Only one m;.n. Jack Montague, has shown sufficient ability to be classed as a possibility. In the mile Dwight Parr and Bill Lyle have been running neck and neck, and both will make the Portland trip. Present indications are that Hayward will return to the campus to take per sonal charge of the men upon their return from Portland, and the final week's work prior to the meet with the Oregon Aggies In Corvallis, May 4, will be under his direct supervision.
