SAX PRAXCISCO, May 20. (Special.)
Two former Seals, George Maisel and
Del Baker, bunched' doubles in the
seventh inning today and saved Port
land from. a shutout. Casey Smith al
lowed the tail-enders only four hits
and two of them were made in that
seventh-inning rally. ' The Seals won,
3-1. but as the Angels and Oaklands
lso -won, the locals grained no ground
in the well-known race for the grand
old rag-. .
The Soals made three runs in the
first inning1, after which they gave a.
Fwell imitation of Weary Willies. They
held what tfiey had, but they got noth
ing more.
Walt MeCredie, the gamest winner In
the game, trotted out a little, fat dump
ling1 of a pitcher named Pennington,
who wears an enormous chew In his
left cheek. Pennington did not have
Jiis cud thoroughly masticated when he
started the. game, so the Seals -made
three runs while he was twisting his
features all out of shape trying to get
that wad settled comfortable in his
face.
After he got the saliva to flow'ng
property, he had the Seals stopped.
They got five nits in the last seven
rounds,- but when a. hit meant a run,
there v,r,s nothing stirring.
Karl Krandall got into the fray for
the first time since he was spiked in
I. os Angeles, and his hit in the first
inning won the contest. Score:

couver, Wash., broke 149 out of 150
targets in the Inland Empire handicap
trapshoot over thejpokane Oun club

ord for the meet.
The best previous mark in the his

pionship meets was 148 out of 130, also
held by Troeh.
Aside from the wonderful hooting of
the Vancouver expert, the performance
of C. C. Hedger of Oroville, Wash., eas
ily, was the feature of the meet. Mr.
Hedger, shooting in his first regis
tered competition, broke 147 out of a
possible 150.
L. H. Reid of Seattle was the. boss
among the professionals today, witn
147 out of 150. Hugh Poston of San
Francisco was second high professional

Reid for high professional honors In
the meet with 289 for the 300 target
during the two-days' shooting.

T is always quite evident on the local
links that a surprising number of
golfers, including not a few good play
ers maintai.i a cheerful ignorance of
the rules of the game. The truth is
that the St. Andrew's code is a fairly
formidable task to master, for it is fre
quently complex and occasionally in
consistent. But it is certainly the first
duty of the golfer to make himself
master of the regulations of the game
The rule most frequently trans
gressed is the 15th, which ordains that
'before striking at a ball in play, a
player shall not move, bend of break
anything fixed or growing, except so
far as is necessary to enable him to
take his stance in addressing the ball,
or in making his backward or forward
swing."
This transgression is due to the com
mon fallacy that, according to the
rules, a player is 'entitled o see the
ball" w-hen it is lying in the rough or
in long grass. You may frequently see
otherwise orthodox' performers careful
ly bending sideways the long grass and
otherwise disposing of surrounding ob
structions with this excuse in mind.

ENTER SEATTLE MEET
International Events to Be
Staged Separately.
PLAY SLATED FOR AUGUST
Exponents of Racquet From All Sec
tions of West Are Expected to
v Compete for Laurels.
Walter A. Goss, sectional delegate of
the United States Lawn Tennis associa
tion, yesterday received word that the
international championships would be
scheduled as a separate event at the
Seattle tennis club on August 18, 19
and 20. They were originally scheduled
to , be held in conjunction with "the
Washington state championships, which
will be run off August 11 to 16, in
clusive. The new arrangement was made in
accordance with a resolution passed at
the annual meeting of the North Pacific
International Lawn Tennis association
held at Vancouver. H. C.
Under the new plan the international
event will be played the first three
days after the conclusion of the Wash
ington state championships and the
directors of the Seattle club expressed
hopes that all of the entries for the
Washington state championships 6tay
over for the international event the
biggest tournament scheduled for the
northwest
The international championships rank
ahead of all other tournaments because
the best representatives of all of the
clubs are sent there and the winners
in the various events are sure to be
ranked high when the list of ranking
players is made known. Four exponents
of the racquet will take part in the in
ternational from Portland. Two will
go from Multnomah Amateur Athletic
club and the other pair from the Irving
ton Tennis club. These are the only
two Portland organizations that are
members of the North Pacific Inter
national association.
-
There are, good and bad points rela
tive to switching of the dates for the
international classic slated for Seattle.
A player who goes through two cham
pionship tournaments at the same time
is nearly worn out and many times
ruined for life as a gladiator. The new
dates will allow the stars at least one
day's rest between tournaments. The
drawback of the new set of dates is
the fact that it may be impossible for
a great many players to get away from
their work or business long enough to
remain for the 10 days of competition.
This is the first year that an inter
national championship has been sched
uled since the world war broke out in
1914 and this, in part, prompted the
North Pacific International Lawn Ten
nis association to make the change. It
is the association's wish to put the in
ternational affair over on a large scale
as a separate feature and it will un-.
doubtedly have enough entries to ac
complish its desire. It is thought that
most of those who play in the Wash
ington state championships will remain
over.
CHAMPIONSHIP GAME IS NEAR
Molalla and Estacada Teams to Meet

BOXING LAW REPEAL SOUGHT
Representatives Appear Before Van--eouver
City Council.
VANCOUVER. Wash.. May 20. (Spe
cial.) In an effort to have the city or
dinance pertaining to- prize fights and
boxing matches repealed, two represen
tatives of the boilermakers' union of
this city appeared before the city coun
cil at its regular meeting last night. It
is the belief of the representatives that
if the city ordinance is repealed, boxing
matches can be pulled off legally in
this city. The ordinance probably will
be repealed. The matter was referred
to a committee.
The question of disposing of the gar
bage was discussed and referred to the
committee on health and sanitation and
the police department. The bid of A.
A. Kampe & Co., of $3496.50 for the con
tract for the improvement of S. street to
St. Johns road to the city limits was ac
cepted. A contract was awarded A.

ONTARIO. Or.. May 20. (Special.)
There is not a single blank fishing
liefnse in Malheur county today.
The reason is the activity of I. B.
Hazeltine. district deputy game warden
for Malheur, Harney, Grant and Baker
counties, who has during the past week
rounded up a dozen violators of the
game laws. Most of the violators were
found between Ontario and Vale on the
Malheur river, spearing salmon without
licenses, or were using seines, wire nets
and in one case using dynamite.
The United States mint coined last

THE rules state a balk shall be called
when the pitcher makes a motion to
pitch while standing in his position
without having the ball. Literally, a
pitcher could get on the rubber pro
vided he made no motion to pitch with
out having the ball in his possession.
That right destroys the theory under
which coachers and base runners &1-
QUALITY, not quantity, counts. The difference
between the size of our Bevo bottle and the beer
bottle used by others is two ounces one swaUow.
This slight difference in quantity is their only
talking point.

ANHEUSER-BUSCH
ST. LOUIS
ways have worked that the moment
the pitcher stepped on the rubber it
was safe for them to take a lead off
the base they occupied. It is an ad
vantage a wise pitcher could put to
great profit.
It is my belief, and the belief of
every other major leagrue umpire with
whom I have talked, that this rule
should be changed. I don't believe the
rule makers Intended to give the pitch
er the right to get on the rubber with
out the ball, yet there is no denying
that the rule does give them that right.
The rubber was made to pitch from; it
is impossible to pitch without the ball;
hence, getting on the rubber without
the ball certainly Is deception on the
part of the pitcher.
The penalty for doing so should be
a balk. The runner should have some
protection when in doubt. Such pro
tection must emanate from the pitch
ing box. Unless he can be guided by
the intent of the pitcher the runner is
lost. The calling of a balk would pro
vide the proper penalty. To clear up
this play insert a clause reading some
thing like this: "A balk shall be called
if the pitcher gets on the rubber in a
position to pitch, but without the ball."
...
Every year this play comes up scores
of times. Here is an illustration of my
point:
Runners on first and second, none
out. The batter hits a home run. The
runner on second fails to touch third
on his way to the plate. The runner
on first and the batter touch each base
in the proper order. The bail Is thrown
to third and the runner from second
who failed to. touch that base is de
clared out. The team in the field then
contends the other two runners should
be declared out, since they technically
passed the first runner on the base
lines by touching third base before he
did. They base their contention for
such a ruling on the theory a runner
cannot score a run ahead of a preceding
j runner who has not been put out.
...
Major league umpires pay no atten
tention to such an argument. The
never rule out any. player other than
the runner who failed to touch a base.
They figure a following runner who
lives up to all the rules of the game
cannot in fairness be penalized because
of some infraction of the rules by a
preceding runner. Under the present
wording of the rules arguments are
stirred up on this point every year. It
would be an easy matter to clear up
such a situation for all time by simply
inserting a clause in the rules which
stated that a -following base runner
could in no way be penalized because
of any action on the part of a preced
ing runner in failing to touch a base.
...
Very often a substitute batter of
fielder is sent Into the game, and the
umpire is not notified of the change.
We will say it Is a batter, and he hits
safely. Then it is discovered he hus
batted without notice to the umpire.
The claim by the team in the field al
ways is the same that the batter ia
an improper batsman, that since he
failed to notify the umpire of his entry
into the game he never really broke
into the lineup and his hit should be
ruled void. Major league umpires al
ways have made it a rule to allow such
a happening to go on. just as if they
had been notified. They merely elimi
