BY HARRY M. GRATSON.
Del Howard's Oaks were as fangless
as fat worms yesterday afternoon for,
let It be related. Pitcher Kenneth Pen
ner of Portland let them down with
three hits, and the Beavers won the
second game of the series 3 to 0.
Penner won the Ray Barkhurst suit of
clothes offered for the first shutout
frame on the home lot in which a
Beaver pitcher worked nine innings.
Incidentally it was the first whitewash-
ins to be administered by Portland this
season.
Lynn D. Brenton, ex-Beaver and
Cleveland Indian, worked for the Oak
lets. Had it not been for Lew Blue's
home-run in the sixth and the catch
of a foul fly by Hack Miller in the fol
lowing inning the same might be going
yet. Although outpitched by Penner
yesterday, the brand of ball dished up
by Brenton yesterday would have won
an ordinary contest.
Penner In Great Form.
Penner was as efficient as a razor
'at a negro balL He whiffed six men,
not walking a soul. Stumpf fanned the
ozone three times. Only one of the
trans-bay tribe reached third base, that
being Sammy Bohne in the second.
Bohne walked, was sacrificed to second
by Jack Roche and stole third. He died
there, however, for Bill Stumpf whiffed
and Eddie Bogart made a remarkable
play on a ball hit by Rowdy Elliott.
t,adie seemed to go over to a spot
almost DacK or the pitchers box to
fieldhe ball, throwing the ex-Cub out.
it was a pitcher's battle until the
sixth, when Blue broke Into the home-
run column, hitting one of Brenton's
fast balls over the right field fence.
Penner. who was on first by virtue of
being hit on the ankle by a pitched
ball, chased across the rubber ahead of
the flashy first baseman. Blue won a
pair of A. G. Spalding & Bros.' $9 base
ball shoes for the second circuit wallop
since the lads came home.
When Miller caught Bogart's foul
fly in the seventh he permitted the
locals' third run. Walker was on third
as a result of his double against the
right field wall and Baker's out at
first. Miller was going away from the
ball as he caught it and had ' to turn
clear around to set himself for the
throw to the plate, which was a poor
one and easily beaten by the speedy
Walker. Hack made a mistake Just
as did Blue in a similar case on Mon
day. Needed Rita Fail to Materialize.
Mack's youthful club had runners on
second and third in the eighth with
only one away, but Jack Farmer and
Dick Cox found it impossible to con
nect. Captain Paddy Siglin pulled a feature
in the ninth when he robbed Dennis
Wilie of a base knock by running out
into left field and spearing the ball
with his meat hand. Bohne continued
to shine at shortstop. In the fourth he
retired the Mackmen by going back
on the grass to field Cox' hard hit
grounder, making a perfect throw to
first.
Frank Walker broke into the game
at center field. He looks like a fin
ished product and his appearance in
the line-up added poise to Walt's lambs.
He doubled once against the right field
fence and hit another one like a rifle
shot at Bill Stumpf. As a result of
Frank's recovery Farmer went to left
field and Blue back to first base, where
he belongs.
Crandall's Error Gives Salt Lake
. Needed Run to AVIn.
SAN FRANCISCO. April 30. Salt
Lake won the second game of the series
with San Francisco In 12 innings.
Crandall's error in the 12th gave the
Bees the winning run. About 600 sol

final game of their present series here
today. It was 'one" of the most sensa

the local National league field. Both
Joe Oeschger and Burleigh Grimes per

hours required to play the game.
Brooklyn led 5 to 4 until the eighth,

error by Pearce enabled Hickman, who

run in the ninth.
A sensational home run by Myers in

a victory.
Griffith's muff of Williams' fly in
the locals' half of the 19th started their

CHICK EVAXS CUTS GOLF LIST
National Amateur Championship
Only One He Will Defend.
CHICAGO. April 30. Charles Evans
Jr., national amateur and open golf
champion, yesterday further reduced his
championship programme to competi
tion in the amateur contest at Oakmont
Country club, Pittsburg, August 18-23.
In addition to foregoing defense of the
national open title, which he won in
1916 at Minneapolis, and the western
open, as annonuced recently, Evans
will not take part in the western ama
teur event at Sunset Hill club, St. Louis,
June 16-21.
The national champion, instead of
contesting for the western amateur
title, will play a series of Red Cross
games in Canada under the auspices of
the Royal Canadian. Golf association.
This series will start on June 16 with
games at Montreal, Quebec, St- Andrews
By the Sea, and Toronto.
AMITY BEATS YAMHILL 15 TO 4
Winning" Team Scores in All Except
Second and Fifth Frames.
Within a few days Portland fans will
not know the Portland Baseball club.
Switches are due speedily, and many of
them. Manager Walter McCredie, while
seated at the ringside of last night's
boxing matches, announced that Ernest
Fallentine had been obtained from the
St Louis Americans. Bobby Quinn
finds it impossible to let the young
ster go before next week, so Fallentine
will break into the game against Sac
ramento, where the Beavers go after
the series with Seattle next week.
Transportation has been sent Out
fielder 'George Maisel, who has been
holding out while firmly intrenched in
a shipyard " at Baltimore. The ex
Detroit and San Francisco hitter has
agreed to terms and will likely depart
from the Oriole burg immediately, and
may be in the lineup against the Si-
washes next Tuesday.
Shortstop (sweet word to Walt Mc-
Credie's ears) Donald Rader left Los
Angeles Tuesday night for Portland
If he steams in this evening it is very
likely that the ex-University of Oregon,
Chicago American, Vernon and Western
leaguer will break into the batting
order tomorrow.. He was purchased
outright from Sioux City.
m 9 m
Third Baseman George Wisterzlll
purchased outright from Vernon, did
not show up at the ball park yesterday
as was expected. Manager Mack looked
for him last night and if he puts in
an appearance today he will play at
the difficult corner, Eddie Bogart go
ing to the bench.
Southpaw Bill James was nncondl
tlonally released yesterday. Boss Wal
ter hated to let him go, for James ha
looked good on the hillock this spring.
but something had to be done to get the
club within the player limit, and the
organization Is topheavy with chuckers.
All of them look good, by the way.
Walter McCredie announced last
night that no matter what the condi
tion of the club was when Fallentine
arrives, the youngster will break into
the lineup. He is a university man
and while in school was, besides, a
baseball star, a wonderful track man.
Fallentine runs 100 yards In 10 seconds
His home is in Salt Lake, where Walter
McCredie met him last spring while
managing the Bees. He was sweet on
the youngster, but the Browns already
had him lined up and at the time Walter
Henry received assurance from Bobby
Quinn that if Fallentine went to the
minors he'd come to whatever club
Mack handled.
Fallentine caught last season for the
Wilson nine, a semi-professional team
of Salt Lake. When the coasters shut
down the Herculean Beaver chieftain
held the ribbons for this club and
schooled Fallentine on the ins and outs
oi baseball. St. Louis used him as a
catcher, but Mack says he can play
either infield or outfield and that be
has the makings of the greatest first
baseman in the game.
"He's a second George Sisler," said
Mack "a better ballplayer today than
a Louis Guisto. Fallentine is built
like Harry Heilmann. He weighs 190
ounds and is faster than the present
Detroit first baseman. He'll play some
place no matter if we're winning every
ay when he reaches Sacramento.
It leaked out last night that Walter
McCredie is dickering for Louis Guisto,
Louis is at present in San Francisco,
aving just returned as a member o
the 363d infantry, 91st division. He
told Willie Bernstein, when the latte
was in the Seal Rocks City a few days
back, that he would like to take
lob on the coast and had written
Cleveland relative to his status.
Walter McCredie believes that Lee
Fohl will take Guisto back east, bu
intimated last night that he was en
deavoring to get him, and that if he
was successful he would play him on
first and place Fallentine elsewhere,
Louis Coulter, younger brother of
Frank - "Speed" Coulter, running for
Jefferson, bids fair to outrival the
marks set by "Speed' while the latter
was running for Lincoln. Louis is a
marvel at the 100 and 220 and has been
turning in some sensational marks in
practice.
The 440, half-milo and mile events
promise to be very closely contested
n all interaeholastic meets among the
Portland and state schools this year.
With "Chuck" Wright at Jefferson.
Ross Peake at Franklin and likely
looking contenders at other schools.
it looks as though the athletic follow
ers are in for some great races.
The 220 Is another race that promises
to be a bear in interscholastlc circles
this season. Wells of Washington,
Coulter and Drlscoll of Jefferson, Dun
nigan of Columbia, Helmke and Beck of
Lincoln are all fast men, with Coulter
and Wells looming up as the leaders.
Very little dope is available on any
of the men that will compete in the
field events, as none of the meets for
the high schools here thus far have
arranged for a full quota of field
events for the high schools and the
only two schools to show what they
have in that department are tranklin
and Washington, which clashed in a
dual meet on Multnomah .field last Sat
urday. Both Washington and Franklin
have plenty of men out for the field
events and will furnish entertainment
in that line for the other high school
squads.

PERSHING PRAISES SPORT
FAIR PLAY TAUGHT BY BOXING
CALLED WORTH WHILE.
Spectators at Championship Contests
at Paris Balk at Decision .
of the Judges.
PARIS, April 27. (By the Assoclat
ed Press.) in a speech last night to
S000 American officers and soldiers
attending the boxing championships
of the American expeditionary forces
in the Cirque Paris. General Pershing
commended the sportsmanlike spirit
that had prevailed.
"Never before." said the general.
have I witnessed such a spirit of fair
ness and friendliness. I feel proud of
the boys who batUed in the ring to
night.
"I may say that our boys will return
home with a higher notion of what
clean athletics should be. and if we
have accomplished that result in the
American expeditionary forces since
we began introducing these sports last
autumn, I feel that wo have achieved
a great success." -
The spirit of fairness referred to
by General Pershing did not prevent
the spectators from booing most un
reservedly the decision of the judges
in awarding the lightweight crown to
Leo Patterson of Joplln. Mo. Perhaps
it was that the very spirit of fairness,
as the spectators viewed It, that
prompted the demonstration, as a great
majority of those at the ringside and
throughout the arena thought tnat
"Busy" Graham of Brooklyn deserved
the bout, and for fully five minutes
they told the judges so in no uncertain
terms.
How many

ISN'T it true with most
safety razors that after the
first few days the blade be
comes dull and is not good for
many more shaves ?
This would be equally true
of the AutoStrop Razor were
it not for its individuality
the blade-stropping feature.
The fact is a razor blade
should be stropped that's
what keeps the edge on it.
The AutoStrop Razor gives
consistently clean, smooth
comfortable shaves because it
is the only safety razor that

Don Rader will be an excellent ad
ditlon to the club. He has played at
shortstop, third base and second, and
hit .295 in the Western League in 1917.
The late Happy Hogan obtained him
from the Chicago White Sox some few
seasons back, although Rader is still
youngster, being 26 years of age.
Rader is a Pendleton, Or., boy.
With the coming of Rader. Wlsterzill
and Maisel there'll be switches galore.
Wlsterzill will play third. Rader will
look after the shortstop billet. Siglin
will play second. Bogart and Kuller
going to the bench. Walker has al
ways played center field, likes it and
will remain there. Maisel will play
either right or left, depending on who
s hitting best at the time. Farmer or
Dick Cox.
Two Beavers are destined to have
their heads chopped off within the next
couple of days to keep the club within
the limit and when Fallentine comes
another must go. The unlucky ones are
sure to be Bogart. Frank Fuller and
Lew Blue. " All three are likely to be
placed somewhere with the well-known

SCHOOLS READY FOR MEET
PORTLAND TRACK MEN BUSY AT
FINAL TRAINING WORK.
Northwest and All-Oregon Contests
to Be Staged at Same Time
on College Field.
Every high school track team In
Portland is working overtime this
week getting in shape for the begin
ning of the interscholastic season of
meets, the first of which is scheduled
for Saturday at Corvallis. under the
auspices of the Oregon Agriculture col
lege.
The meet at Corvallis is being billed
as the northwest high school cham
pionship track and field meet, and will
be open to every high school in the
northwest. A meet for Oregon high
schools only, and men that do not com
Dlete in the northwest high school mee
will be held in conjunction with the big
affair.
Nearly every Portland school will
send a team to Corvallis, while those
that do not will send one to the state
meet at the . University of Oregon on
May 10.
George "Ad" Dewey, coach of the
Lincoln high track team, will send only
one entry to the northwest high school
championship meet. The lone Rail
splitter ill be Earl Larrimore, crack
Rabbit Maranville, Braves short stop,
has contributed largely to the poor
showing made by the Braves. Rabbit
was recently discharged from the navy
and is not in condition.
Thirty thousand fans saw the last
Brooklyn-Boston game at Boston the
other day. This is some crowd, con
sidering the fact that the home team
lost four straight games to the Dodgers
and that a marathon race was held on
the same afternoon. It looks as though
this year will be the banner one for
baseball in all parts of the country.
Bill Brennan, former National League
umpire, who officiated in the Giants'
exhibition games, has been appointed
head umpire of the Southern League
staff. A nice bunch of change must
be attached to this job, else Brennan
would not have quit the majors.
Jack Coombs says he will be satisfied
if his team finishes in the first division.
The veteran Phlllle 1 ader would be
doing wonders if he gets his team to
stick any place near the top. as his
flock of old-timers is badly crippled at
the present time.
Ernie Shore and Duffy Lewis, former
Red Sox players, who figured In one of
the greatest deals in baseball history,
are doing great work for the Yankees.
Shore is pitching as usual, while Duffy
is banging the pill at a merry clip.

Frank Noel, a youngster, who at
tracted eome attention last year by
pitching a non-hit, no-run game at
Wilmington, Del., and who was given
a brief tryout by the Giants, has been
sent to Chattanooga Southern Associa
tion club. McGraw still has strings on
the youngster and expects him to burn
up the minors this year and win a reg
ular job on the Giants' staff next sea
son.
Although the spitball has been abol
ished in the majors, Larry Cheney,
Brooklyn hurler, and one of the great
est spitball artists ever developed by
the majors, is doing just as good with
out moisture on the pill as he did be
fore, when the spitball was in style.
Larry is going to be one of Brooklyn's
best bets in the, box. and if Brooklyn
will keep up its present pace it Is hard
to predict who will nose them out in
the end.

After holding out ror more than a
month. Eddie Roush, the greatest out
fielder in the National League, has ac
cepted President Hermann's salary and
will cover the sun field for Cincinnati.
Roush was offered more money than
any National League outfielder in the
game, but the veteran thought he was
worth more. After a conference with
the "boss" Eddie saw he was wrong
and ouirkly came to terms.

still, therefore, and aim at the ball,
for if the club bites into the turf In
the slightest degree before the bull is
struck, all your calculations regarding
the distance will go by the board.
As far as actual swing is concerned,
the left hand plays the most important
part. With It you drag the club through.
If you let it go well through with the
arms outstretched you will obviate any
tendency to raise the ball too quickly.
Bear in mind then that any flexion of
the wrist is fatal, and that to draw the
club across the ball is no less so. for
by so doing you impart to the ball a
cut that will deprive it of all run.

EFORE making the stroke the play-
mind the spot whereon he intends that
the ball should pitch, instead of just
glancing at the flag and then playing
the stroke on what is known as general
principles.
For a shot of any distance up to 40
years the body should not move at all;
the stroke should be played entirely
with the arms, for in the effort in
moving the body forward with the
stroke the blade Is apt to be pushed
under the ball to an extent that is
