r BT JAMES J. RICHARDSON.
A3 a last resort to rally the fans and
fanettes to the support of the Bucka
roos. Judge McCredie yesterday an
nounced that, starting with the first
Seattle game Monday evening at 6:30
o'clock on the Vaughn-street grounds,
all games played in Portland, hereafter
will be of the twilight brand.
The Portland magnate has tried
very imaginable hour to start the
Karnes, but Portland is like every other
city on the Coast, the fans are too busy
with their daily toil to congregate at
ball parks during the busy hours of the
afternoon.
Twilight baseball Is a huge success
at Vancouver. B. C. In Salt Lake the
evening games are attracting big
crowds, and Los Angeles has also
adopted the late starting idea.
If the innovation is a paying propo
sition in other cities. Judge McCredie
maintains that it will thrive in Port
land. In order to get more than a cor
poral's guard at the contests the games
have been switched from 3 o'clock to
4, and then 3:30 was tried. Finally it
was switched back to 3 o'clock, but
till the crowds failed to materialize.
If there is no improvement in the
crowds with the advent of twilight ball
it is going to be tough sledding for the
magnates to stave off disaster until
July 9, at which time the league may
close its gates and retain title to fran
chises and players.
A double-header is billed for Vaughn
street today and tomorrow. Today's
fracas starts at 2 o'clock, while tomor
row's contest is billed for 1:30.
The Buckaroos have only annexed
one of the three games played this
week. Fisher's warriors will have to
step out and cop their share of the
four remaining games if they wish to
hold favor with local fans.
A youngster walked into Judge Mc
Credie's office, at baseball headquar
ters Thursday, and with a confident air
asked the Portland magnate if he need
ed any pitchers. '
"My name is Webb and I pitched for
Pacific University at Forest Grove. I
read where you needed pitchers and
thought I would like to try out with
you," said the chap from Willis Goffs
city.
"What have you got in your vocabu
lary of twisters?" asked McCredle.
"I can't just tell you what I have,
but if it's agreeable I'll report at the
ball park tomorrow and try my hand
at bending 'em over for you," suggested
Webb.
Yesterday the lanky young right
hander put in an appearance at
Vaughen street and Manager Fisher
gave him a uniform. When Morton
was hit hard in the eighth. Fisher con
cluded it was a chance to look Webb
over.
The lad twirled in the ninth Inning
and pitched to Aberdeen's heavy artil
lery in Bogart, Morse and Egan and
retired them via the aerial route. He
appeared nervous, which is only natu
ral for an inexperienced chap, but
showed a good curve ball.
.
Harry Heilman, former Portland
Colt, now with the Detroit Tigers,
states that he will leave the Detroit
team shortly to enlist at the submarine
base in San Pedro, Cal. Hughey Jen
nings will feel the loss of Heilman
keenly, as the big Californian has been
hUting the ball hard and often for the
Tiger boss.

Band of 40 pieces in attendance.
The Spring meet of the Portland Hunt
Club to be held today for the benefit
of the American Red Cross gives every
indication of living up to and even sur
passing its high-class performances of
previous year3. This annual event
staged by the club has come to be
regarded as an institution among all
horse lovers and the list of events
put on each year has made an enviable
record for the club.
Everything is in readiness for the
drop of the starter's flag at 2:30 o'clock
this afternoon when the first of the
nine scheduled events will commence.
Weather permitting, a large crowd is
expected. James A. Beckett, chairman
of the ticket committee, has kept his
helpers "on the Job" every minute and
reports a large sale.
The music committee consisting of
Natt McDougall, president of the club,
and James A. Beckett, made a master
stroke when they secured the services
of the "Volunteer United States Signal
Corps Band from Vancouver. This
band is composed of 40 pieces with
Sergeant Vivian A. Tillotson, as leader,
and their playing alone will be worth
going a long way to hear. ,
An event not down on the pro
gramme, but one that is & very im
portant feature of the day's happenings,
Is the auction of the colt, Billy. This
colt was given by Mrs. W. L. Wood to
the Juniors for the purpose of further
ing the work of the Red Star, which
has charge of the relief of animals at
the front, and it is hoped and expected
to net a considerable sum from his sale.
A polo game will be staged by Ches
ter G. Murphy's team, and a team com
posed of officers from Vancouver Bar
racks, captained by J-Jeutenant Henry
DicKinson.
The relay race between the heavier
and lighter riders will be full of thrills
and hotly contested.
The match race will show two very
classy and well-trained thoroughbreds
that have been worked faithfully every
day.
The boys' pony race and the hurdle
Jumping are well and favorably known
from previous meets.
The eighth event, a half-mile dash
Is the big feature of the day. This is
a contest between valuable horses that
are evenly matched.
. A class drill given by the Junior girls
of the club under the direction of
Harry M. Kerron will open the meet
promptly at 2:30.

and both turned in low scores.
Someone, probably in anticipation of
the opening of the new municipal golf
links, discovered that an innocent-
looking automobile standing In front of
the Hippodrome Theater, Wednesday
night, contained 30 nice, round golf
balls, the kind that Rudolph Wilhelm,
Northwest amateur champion, uses in
his championship flights. The thief

SECOSD ROUND OF INTER-CLUB
SCHEDULE TO BE FLAYED.
Irvington Will Meet Laurelhurst and
Multnomah Will Clash With
Warerler in Daj's Contest.
The second round of the inter-club
tennis tournament will be played to
day, when Irvington will clash with
Laurelhurst on the Irvington ' courts
and Multnomah and Waverley will mix
on the latter's courts. At present Mult
nomah and Irvington are tied for first
place, each having won 4 matches with
out a single loss. Two weeks ago
Laurelhurst did not make its appear
ance and forfeited its games to the
Winged M players, but they are not ex
pected to do so this time.
Irvington seems to have a very for
mldable aggregation of racquet stars.
Percy Lewis and Mrs. W. I. Northup
comprise a mixed-doubles team which
should make a good showing against
Laurelhurst.
Both Walter A. Goss and A. R. Mun
ger are players of no mean ability and
are playing wonderful tennis. They
won their matches with the Waverley
stars, but expect a much harder battle
with Laurelhurst.
A. D. Wakerr.an and A. D. Norris will
probably play in the men's singles for
Waverley. Irving Webster and Miss
Lucia Morris will probably form the
mixed-doubles team.
It is still uncertain who will be the
players representing Multnomah and
Laurelhurst.

RED CROSS BOUT STOPPED
Kitsap Sheriff Interferes With Plans
of Bremerton Folk.
SEATTLE, Wash.. June 14. (Special.)
Sheriff Dan Davis, of Kitsap County,
Wash., tonight is as popular with
Bremerton folks as the Crown Prince
would be in Camp Lewis. Just when
the Bremerton Elks' Lodge, with other
organizations of Bremerton, had 'ar
ranged for a Red Cross boxing show
in Bremerton, Sheriff Daniel declared
that Mickey King and Frank Farmer
would not be allowed to box 10 rounds
for the Red Cross or any other organi
zation. Not wishing to buck the Sher
iff's office, the committee called the
bout off.
Work had been almost completed on
a grandstand at the baseball park. It
was anticipated that the Red Cross
would have been enriched at least S5000
by the boxing carnival..

FAST GAMES BILLED
Second Half of Shipbuilders'
Season Begins Tomorrow.
2 CONTESTS AT ST. JOHNS
Smith-Porter to Meet Standifer-
4
Clarkson and Foundation to
Play Corn foot Keen Com
petition Is Promised.
The second half of the Colun.bla-
Willamette Shipbuilders' League sea
son will be launched tomorrow with
four good games on tap. two of which
will be featured In a double-header at
the St. Johns ball park. The first half
of the season was a great success, fi
nancially and "artistically." and the
second schedule promises to be better
than the first. The championship is
still in doubt. Foundation and Grant
Smith-Porter being tied for the first
place, but the game will be played orr
aa soon as possible and the "rag"
awarded to the winner.
The double-header at St. Johns will
be Grant Smith-Porter vs. Standifer-
Clarkson and Foundation vs. Cornfoot.
The Vancouver fans are agog over the
possibilities of Standifer - Clarkson ;
winning the pennant in the second half
of the season and will invade St. Johns
In full force. The "Peerless" battery.
Plllett and Marshall, will work for the
Vancouver club, and the Barracks city
fans are backing the team to the limit.
Grant Smith-Porter trimmed Standifer-
Clarkson in the first half of the season
but since Manager Peterson has been
adding new players to the roster it
looks as though Smith-Porter will have
a job cut out for them if they expect
to repeat the performance. "Speed"
Barham. the G. S.-P. fllnger. Is back in
form again, which he proved last Sun
day, and should give a good account of
himself.
Perle S. Casey has been signed as
manager of the Cornfoot team, succeed
ing Charley Moore, and will put a first
rank team in the field against Founda
tion tomorrow. Every game counts
when a team plays only once a week,
so there will be very little experiment
ing from now on. The managers of all
of the teams have been working for
several months whipping their teams
into shape and as a result some of the
outfits in the Shipbuilders circuit are
able, and could, without a doubt, give
any team, league or otherwise, in this
section of the United States an inter
esting nine-Inning session of the old
National pastime.'
Manager Cason has perhaps the big
gest aggregation of stars In the league
under the Foundation Company's ban
ner. How does this look for a pitch
ing staff? "Lefty" James, "Rube"
Evans. Al Zwieful and "Doc" Meikle.
Any one of the above would be a win
ner In any of the circuits West of the
Mississippi. Also the Foundation catch
ing staff Is not so "worse." Gus Fisher
and Bill Gleason. Gleason is one of
the heaviest hitters in the league and
is a crackerjack receiver. As to Fisher,
he is in a class by himself in the Ship
builders' Leaxue. Gus was the moun
tain of strength to the Sacramento
team and his lusty bat kept the Sena
tors ahead in the runs many a time
this season.
Peninsula will play the Columbia
River Shipbuilding Company at Van
couver while Supple-Ballin has an en
gagement to fill in St Helens, where
they are billed to meet the fast Mc
cormick team.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 14. (Spe
cial.) Billy Miske. of St. Paul, beat
Knockout Kruvosky tonight at Dream
land Rink, but nevertheless the Min
nesota heavyweight was a disappoint
ment. While Miske won all the way,
particularly in the third and fourtn
rounds, he did not do what was ex
pected of him stop the San Fran
ciscan. And the way Kayo was looking
at the close it should not have been a
particularly hard Job.
The California lad wasknocked down
twice in the third and again in tha
fourth. But he was as game as gama
could be and stayed the limit in epito
of Miske's efforts to stow him away.
It was a hard right to the body that
sent Kruvosky on his haunches the.
first time In the third. He was dropped
again with a right to the Jaw. and ia
the fourth the same sort of punch,
floored him.
Miske was slow, much slower than
againxt Hendricks, and didn't seem to
have the force behind his punches, and
In his last two rounds was wide open.
At that it vras a good battle to watch,
and the big crowd had .plenty of 'action.
The surprise of the night was tho
knockout Frankle Farren scored on,
Willie Hoppe in the second. Twice ha,
knocked Willie down with left hooks,
the second time for the count of nine.
Then he stepped in and put Williej
down for keeps.
