IP THE ' MORNING OHEGONIAN, MONDAY, JUNE 17. 1918. 2 SHUTOUT GAMES THRILL 2000 FANS Foundation Loses to Cornfoot in Pitchers' Battle by Score of 3 to 0. SUDS SUTHERLAND AT BEST Btandifcr-CIarkson Shuts Out Grant Smith-Porter, Score 2 to 0. Pillctt's Pitching Feature oT Second Game. More than 2000 fans attended yes terday's double-header in St. Johns and witnessed two of the most exciting panics ever staged on that diamond. The- Cornfoots shut out Foundation, 3-0, in the first contest, and Standi-fer-Clarkson walloped Grant Smith I'orter in another shut-out game, 2-0. Prom the time the "uraps" cried "Flay ball" until the last man was re tired both pames proved to be pitchers' battles. In the first contest Suds Suth erland, "cliampcen" tooth-puller at the North Pacific Dental College, held Foundation to one hit, a two-bagger by Stumpf, whlie his team mates pound ed Rube Kvans, erstwhile pitcher of the bait Lake Bees, ror nine hits and three runs. McKenna, the little short patcher of the victorious nine, started the fireworks In the third inning by singling to left. A hit by French put him on second, and he scored on two outs. Cornfoot made two more runs in the seventh. French llittina; Star. Foundation's only chances to score were spoiled by two fast double plays. French, Cornfoot's second baseman, was the hitting star of the day, an nexing three safe blows out of four times at bat. . Beebe. of the same team, and Bill Sturhpf, of Foundation, were the fielding stars. In the second contest Vancouver started the scoring In the first frame. A double by Garrity, the first man to face Barham, Johnson's out and a dou ble by Marshal, former Portland re ceiver, scored the first tally for Clark son. From that inning until the seventh not a man crossed the home plate. Both hurlers pitched airtight ball, and it looked for a while as If the game would finish with a 1-0 score. In the seventh, however, the winners scored again. Coleman was safe on Blanchard's error, stole second and scored on Garrlty's single to center. Coleman would have been caught at home had not Barham interfered with Primley's perfect peg to Shea. Fillet Retires 13 Men. The feature of that contest was Pill etts' pitching. The former Spokane In dian star struck out 13 men and, with the exception of the third inning, when Shine Harmon singled, only three men faced him an inning. Shea, who made the other hit, went out trying to stretch It into a double. Wayne Barham was by no means an easy mark for the winners. The ex-Coaster pitched good enough to win nine-tenths of the ball games, but he had poor hitting support behind his masterly pitching. Bill Baird's field ing was one of the sensations of the double bill.

J. Mcrrett Writes of Trip to France ad Fays TrIWate to American Gaaairry. v rrlvate H. J. Sherrett. Company E, 411th Telegraph Battalion, now in France, and a former Portland semi- pro, ballplayer, writes Interestingly of his trip across the briny deep and his experience In France. Sherrett was a former employe of the Pacific State; Telephone & Telegraph Company and is well known in Portland. We sure had a wonderful time since we left California. We sailed from San Francisco and stopped at Balboa. We had shore liberty and visited the city of Panama. It Is quite a place. Our next stop was New Tork. where we disembarked nd were sent to Camp Merritt, N. J. On board the steamer which transported u8 around to the At lantic Ocean were several well-known Portland boys who were on their way from Bremerton Navy-yard to some At lantic Coast Navy-yard. Jimmy Burke, former swimming instructor of the Portland public schools, and Mike Brcnnan, the songbird from the Mult nomah Club, were among those present. Both Burke and Brennan made quite a hit with their warbling. "Our trip across the Atlantic had little more excitement In it. We had a little game with tho Kaiser's subma rincs. The U. S. gunners had their bat ting eye with them and batted 1000 per cent for the day. They were cred ited with sinking two of Kaiser's Bill's submarines, while-we were not hit, so the score for that game was V. S. 2, Germany 0. It was a wonderful sight to see the U. S. Navy in action, and they deserve lots of credit. "Ralph Underwood, the Multnomah Club featherweight, is a member of our battalion and sends his best regards to the boys at the club and around town. He is no longer a featherweight, as he tips the beam at 145 pounds. On the way across Ralph showed the boys how to fight, but since our arrival here we have been learning how to do it with the lead pills. "We are up and around the first line trenches quite often and I have seen a number of rip snorting encounters be tween the Allies and Fritzes. We have to string wires and other paraphernalia from the different points of communi cation and are so accustomed to hear ing shells whizz by our conning tow ers that we don't even try to duck away from them now. The excitement is great." YOUTH, 17, IS FIXE SWIMMER Harold Krugcr, of Honolulu, Holds Records In Water. Few athletes hold a world champion ship at the age of 17. but that good fortune came to Harold "Stubby" Kruger, the Honolulu boy, who will be one of the Hawaiian swimmers to ap pear in Portland with Duke Kahana mcku on June 21-261 Kruger set a new record for the 100-yard backstroke last year, making the distance in 1:08 1-6. A German swimmer held one record up to two years ago. but Kruger took the honor away from Britting when he made the 100-yard backstroke in re markable time. And inasmuch as he is still in his teens, swimming critics predict a great future for the Ha v, alian star. In addition to the world-wide notice he has obtained by bis work In the bsckstroke, he has also set up fast time In the other events. He has made the century under 57; can swim the 20 yards in less than 2:35 and is rec ognized as one of tne leading swim mers of the country in alstances from 440 yards to the 880. Frank Troeh, of Vancouver, Wash., won the special merchandise ehoot held by the Portland Gun Club at Everding Park yesterday, by shattering 48 out of 50 "tar hawks." Thirty nlmrods Journeyed to tne Portland Gun Club yesterday to compete in the special shoot and were rewarded with a great day for trapshooting and a good time. J. A. Troeh broke 7 of the flying clays out of-iO, and Frank Templeton, K. J. Sewell and A. L. Zachrisson each brought down 46 birds. A serving tray as the prize for first place was presented to Frank Troeh. J. I'. Mwrrta la lamer. After the finish of the &0-target merchandise hoot the 20-gauge gun experts lined up at the traps and had it out for the W. C. Bristol trophy. J. O. Morris won the cup yesterday, bringing down 21 birds out o! 2f. the shoot for the trophy being a 2S-lird event, shot for twice a month. In order to become the permanent possession of a shooter it must be won three out of five times. Frank Templeton, trapshooting cham pion of Oregon, won the trophy last time, but was forced to relinquish his hold yesterday. Templeton bagged only 19 of his 25 targets. H. 11.

Arthur Anderson, United States Xa val Reserve press agent, who is with the recruiting party which has been touring Oregon getting men for the Navy, arrived in Portland from Astoria yesterday. Anderson is former sport ing editor of the Seattle Star and is using the subject of sports and ath letica as one of the features in the drive for recruits. He attended a game in the Lower Co. lumbia Shipbuilders' League recently and says that the Astoria fans have certainly warmed up to shipbuilders' baseball and are attending in force. The crowd at one game in Astoria e -ceeded 2000. There are three shipbuild Ing teams and three service teams in the Lower Columbia League. Judge W. IV. McCredle received long-distance telephone call from David E.

Rollie Zeider hasn't been troubled with bunions since he jumped the Yan kees in 1313. e e More trouble for the Tigers: It's re ported that Hellman and Erickson are getting ready to enlist in the submarine service at San Diego. Both major leagues ought to empow er their umpires to decide whether games should be postponed because of rain or wet grounds. The home clubs often abuse this privilege. e Bill Fischer, former Pirate catcher, is now playing first base for the Bing hamton cluh of the International League. Joe Cantillion, manager and part owner of the Minneapolis club of the American Association, has been in base ball as player, umpire or manager for 39 years. e Marty O'Toole, purchased for 122.500 by the Pirates some years ago. Is pitch ing for the Omaha club of the Western League. Eddie Cicotte is on his way at last with a winning streak. The White Sox star scored a fourth straight tlctory when he turned back the Mack men last Sunday. The Browns will be without the serv ices of Catcher Leslie Nunamaker for two or three weeks. The finger broken by a foul tip during the Yankee series is now in splints. Walter Johnson still finds it impossi ble to get into the class of no-hit pitch ers. He came close at Detroit, but Vitt got a single. Babe Ruth is likely to find home run ning difficult at Chicago, but he should punch some circuit clouts into the right field bleachers at St. Louis. e ' The Yankees always have contended that the Cleveland park is the best in. the league for hitting. There la not a sign of any kind on the fences. The Cleveland club has given Catcher John Peters hi" unconditional release now that Chet Thomas has been added to the team. The St. Louis Browns are well fixed from a pitching standpoint, but other- vlu ax not particularly strong; It is Leonard and Rrluoii Trainrng Hard. PHILADELPHIA. June 14.
