BY HARRY M. GRAYSON.
Portland's Pacific coast league base
ball team, which has been going along
like a dromedary, dreary and drowsy,
will meet the Guy M. Standifer Ship
building corporation's team, commenc
ing at 3 o'clock this afternoon at
Twenty-fourth and Vaughn streets.
The Mackian machino arrives from San
Francisco early this morning: and will
entrain for Seattle at 11 o'clock tonight
where a seven-game series with the
liainiers gets under way tomorrow.
The shipyard workers ought to make

the will, it is estimated at several mil
lion dollars. Mr. Tenney, who since
1868 had been a figure in financial
and social circles in this city, died at
the Plaza hotel on April 29.
Included among the numerous be
quests are gifts of $50,000 each to the
Lawrence general hospital of Lawrence,
Mass.; the Xew Hampshire conference
seminary and female college at Tilton,
N. H., and the Boston university at
Boston. Gifts of $10,000 are made to
each of the following: ' The Orthodox
Congregational society, the Methodist
Episcopal society, the Baptist society
and the Universalist church of Me
theum, Mass.; the First Methodist
church, the Pleasant-street Methodist
church, the Congregational church and
the Baptist church of Salem, N. H.,
and the North Methodist church or
North Salem, N. II.
After making several bequests of
$5000 each to household employes, sev
eral more of $10,000 each to friends
and $25,000 to Ebenezer M. Saunders of
Middlbury, Vt., a nephew, the testator
names his son, Daniel G. Tenney of 570
Park avenue, as the beneficiary of a
trust fund of $1,000,000 and the resid
uary legatee. He is also made sole
executor of the estate.
Mr. Tenney owned a country home
at Metheun, Mass., known as Grey
court; also a large farm at Salem. N. H.,
where he was engaged in the breeding
of fancy stock and where he kept his
prize-winning herd of Guernseys. In
his will he expressed a wish that these
country places be kept in the family
and handed down fro mone generation
to another, provided the upkeep of the
two does not prove too heavy and be
yond the means of his descendants.
Provision for the three children of
his son, Daniel G. Tenney. is also made,
the testator setting aside for each of
them a trust fund of $250,000. The
income is to be used for the support
and education of the children until
they reach the age of 21 years, with the
stipulation that not more than $2500
a year bo expended on each child. On
coming of age the beneficiary will re
ceive one-third of the principal and the
accumulated income. The other por
tions of the fund will be paid to the
beneficiaries on reaching the age of
25 and 30 years.
Mr. Tenney was a member of the
Metropolitan, Union League, Lotos,
Sleepy Hollow, Country club Bankers,
Grolier, Colonial wars and other clubs
and societies.

In the Standifer lineup are found the
names of several stars of yesteryear
and some future gseats, Curtis Cole
man (Yankees). Charles Moore (White
Sox), Archie Blair (Seattle), Fred Car
men (Tacoma), Bob Marshall (St. Paul),
liddie Johnson (Butte) and Al Hart
man (Denver), have made an enviable
record for the trans-Columbia tossera,
Moore is playing seemingly as well aa
when he was starring for Charlej
Comiskey.
.
If the Beavers have been in a sorry
plight to date for tossers. then, at this
writing, they are in an even worse pre
dicament. Pitcher George Pennington
arrived yesterday morning and Dr
.lames C. Zan has advised him not to
make the trip to Seattle. It became
known yesterday for the first time
that Outfielder Jack Farmer arrived
in Portland on Saturday and is con
fined to his bed with an attack of
Spanish influenza contracted in San
Francisco. It will be impossible for
him to go north and 'tis hard to tell
how long he'll be out of the lineup.
Both Pennington and Farmer will be
sadly missed.
Dr. Zan advised Pennington to have
an X-ray taken of his tomach from
which he is suffering. This will prob
ably be done today.
Pitcher AI Zweifel. who was signed
a week by Judge William Wallace Mc
Credie. may pitch for the Beavers
against Standifer this afternoon.' If he
docs not Walter McCredie's choice will
probably be Guy Cooper who has been
found wanting to date. Zweifel will
accompany the team to Seattle.
Pitcher George Pennington does ' not
believe that Pitcher Dick Mitchell is
being carted north by McCredie. At
least George says that he is of the
opinion that Boss Walter did not fetch
liim. Reports from the south say that
Mitchell showed the Herculean Beaver
chieftain but little in the two innings
he chucked and in the bullpen.
Another youngster who may be signed
by Portland is Southpaw Lefty Shroe
der, a local boy who returns from over
seas this morning with battery A.
Schroeder is a free agent and has "three
or four seasons of professional ball
under his belt. The McCredies are still
waiting to hear from Pitcher Harvey
"Suds" Sutherland, who is pitching for
Hood River, Or., while awaiting word
from the St. Joseph club of the West
ern league, to which he belongs.
Sutherland has written St. Joseph
asking them to make him some kind of
a proposition whereby he may gain his
release from that club.
The McCredies are highly desirous of
annexing Southpaw Al Hartman of the
Standifers, but Al is not particular
about leaving his billet as draftsman
with the shipbuilders.
From all the advance dope on
Catcher Krnie Fallentine who joined
the Beavers at Sacramento it must be
judged that a catcher is all Fallentine
is. Walter McCredie was hiehlv en
thused over grabbing the youngster
irom tne &t. l,ouis American league
club and asserted that he would break
into tne lineup as soon as he arrived.
Mack must have changed his mind,
however, for Fallentine has had little
opportunity to play since reporting.
San Francisco experts say he's not fast
enough for any other position save
catching, is only a fair catcher and
looks very ordinary with the stick.
The consensus of opinion is that Fal
lentine is too young and inexperienced
lor Class A society. In order to get
further chance to see him work Walter
McCredie is slated to let the youngster
eaten today
Bill Clymer's Seattle club will pass
tnrough .Portland on its way home at 7
P. M. today When Bill lost seven
straight to Los Angeles last week his
hopes for a successful road trip were
shattered. Shree weeks on foreign bat
tlefields say Clymer's club win four
out of six from Portland, two out of
fcix. from Salt Lake and lose seven
strcight down below
Since he was here Clymer has sold
Titcher Miles Mains to Salt Lake and
acquired Catcher Cook from Vernon.
The latter is a hustling backstop who
ought to be of assistance to Jim Brews
ter s clan
Two games will be played by Seattle
and Portland at the Sound City on
Decoration day, making it a seven
same series. The final game will be
played on next Monday. The Beavers
will leave the north on that night for
home to open a six-game series nere
with Bill Rodgers' Sacramento Senators.
Oakland starts an eight-game series
with San Francisco this afternoon while
Vernon tangles with Los Angeles in a
series of like length. Seven games
with Sacramento is the attraction at
SaH Lake.
$500,000 FRAUD' ADMITTED
Promoter Pleads Guilty to Charge of
Diverting Bank Funds.
MINNEAPOLIS. Minn. William H.
Schafer, promoter, charged" by the state
with having diverted $500,000 from 14
state banks and two mortgage .com
panies which he controlled, entered a
plea of guilty in Hennepin county dis
trict court.
Schafer was arrested on complaint of
F. S. Pearson, superintendent of state
banks,, following an investigation of
the string of 14 banks controlled by
him. which were closed.
Further investigation, according to
Pearson's findings, brought out the
fact that the certain irregularities con
nected with the failure of the string
of banks had been conducted through
the mortgage securities company in
which Schafer held a controlling inter
est, and of which Charles F. Wyant
was president. Wyant was arrested
and held under three indictments.

Inter-Collegiate Clash at Seattle
Promises to Be Hardest Fought
In Many Tears.
Next Saturday will see the tratherinar
of the best college athletic stars on
the Pacific coast for the first annual
Pacific coast inter-collegiate track and
field championships meet, which is
scheduled for Seattle. Wash., on uni
versity field. Athletes from Stanford,
California, University of Oregon. Ore
gon Agricultural college, Washington
State and University of Washington
will be on hand to compete for first
honors.
Up north the fans have been taking a
liking to the Stanford university squad
as the winning team, but the records
made this season show that the coming
event' in Seattle will be- closely con
tested. All of the colleges have men who
have covered the 100 in 10 1-5, Carter
of O. A. C. being the only man to make
it in 10 flat. Wells of Stanford and
Cantlow of California have been show
ing up well in the 100, and should go
strong next Saturday. Carter from O.
A. C. and Foster of Oregon seem to be
the strongest entries from Oregon Insti
tutions in the dash events.
. Maurice Snook, the Aggies' etar
sprinter and former Jefferson high
school athlete, will not be eligible for
the meet as he Is a freshman. The same
applies to Heminway of Oregon, another
former Portland high school star
sprinter. Bailey and Gray of. Washing
ton have done the 100 in 10 1-5, while
not much Is available on Sutton of
W. S. C.
.
The high hurdle favorites are Foster
of Oregon and Dalley of Washington.
Both men tied for first place in the
Washington and Oregon dual meet with
the time at 15 4-5. In the low hurdles
Dailey has made the best time. Close
behind Is Wells of Stanford, Bunne of
California and Howell of W. S. C. N.
-
In the, field events Stanford. Califor
nia and Washington loom up the strong
est. Caughey of Stanford, in the shot
put is good for 43 feet, while Temple
ton, also of Stanford has made 23 feet
in the broad jump. Jackson is Cali
fornia's mainstay in the high jump,
having a leap of 6 feet 3 inches to his
credit, while Peterson o" the same insti
tution looks good in the pole vault. In
the javelin, Merchant of California is
probably the best, considering his throw
of 158 feet S9i inches made in the
California-Stamford dual meet. Pope of
Washington looks easily the class of
the conference with the discus. He is
also good in the shot put.
The distance runs should prove the
best of the whole meet. Each college
has men that are capable of pulling the
unexpected. Anderson of Oregon, Kir
kenschlanger of O. A. C. ; Parker of W.
A. C Geoppert of California, Schofield
and Dlnkspiel of Stanford and Gray of
Washington are about equal in the
quarter-mile run, with Geoppert and
Dinkspeil having the edge if there is
any. In the half-mile Geoppert is given
the edge, although Rachford of W. b.
C. Is a corking good man at that dis
tance. Belding of Oregon will also be
in the running, while McGaffney of
Washington and Teitsworth of Stanford
are not to be looked down upon.
The mile with Sprott of California,
Teitsworth of Stanford, Swan of O. A.
C. and Ratchford of W. S. C, should
prove a thriller.
In the two-mile run four good men
are entered. Washington has two good
men in McDonald and Davis. "Jet"
Smith of W. S. C, is the holder of the
northwest conference record for that
distance, while Sprott of California is
considered to be the peer of the south.
The relay teams will be picked from th
men entered in the other evnts. Stan
ford has the best time, having done the
distance in 3:28 3-5.

BOB MECSEL BACK FOR KEEPS
Vernon Outfielder Has Received Dis
charge from Cncle Sam's Navy.
LOS ANGELES. Cal.. May 26. (Spe
cial.) Outfielder Bobby Meusel is back
with Vernon for keeps, announced Man
ager -William Essick tonight. He has
obtained his discharge from the United
States navy. The Tigers will be com
pelled to get along without the serv
ices of Tommy Long, one of the Tiger
stars last season.
Long is doing duty near Mons, and
It seems unlikely that he will be back
in this country and out of the service
in time to be of any use tc the club
this season, it was stated last night
by" Business Manager Halbritcr.
However, with Eddington hiting as
he is, and Meusel available, the out
field problem looks better than it did
at one time.

U, S. BEET SEED IS GOOD
American Supply Equals in Quality
Bcs-t of European.
LOGAN, Utah. Sugar beet seed,
equal and frequently superior to Euro
pean seed, is being supplied to sugar
beet companies in this section by the)
experiment station of the Utah Agri
cultural college here. Originally th.
seed came from a strain of the best
sugar beet seed produced in Europ
and it has been carefully cultivated
by the experiment btation for li
years.
Due to the fact that war conditions
cut off the supply of European seed.
It became necessary for farmers in
this counthy to cultivate their own
seed, and the efforts of the experiment
.-tat ion have been in this direction for
some time and there has been developer!
a strain of pedigreed sugar beet seed
that is hardy and in every way suited
to western conditions. Sugar com
panies In Idaho, Utah and other west
ern states have been purchasing tha
seed produced by the experiment sta
tion of the college and in some In
stances have developed new strains
from those purchased.
Authorities at the college declare
that the United States is rapidly be
coming independent of Europe for its
sugar beet seed supply.
