Cal, June 20. (Special.) Slumping- back to their last year's form, when they were known as Jokea instead of Oaks, the Oakland club today was easy meat for the Fort land bunch, who won. to 1. Both the Arlett boys. Buss and Pop, were used by Del Howard, but they were no pus tie. Ken Penner. the boy with the buck led ribs, had the Oaks so well tamed that they appeared to have lost all their "pep" and punch, and they looked bad after the Beavers had scored four runs in the third Inning'. Portland got away with everything they tried. Meanwhile the Oaks were fumbling and floundering1, while a bunch of crip pled soldiers jeered at them. Little Boy Blue, who stands guard at the iron gate for the Portland crew. chopped a ball in front, of the plate in the eighth inning and he was tossed out by Ml tie. Mai Kason decided tha the ball was fair and that Blue was out. Blue is a left-hander and full of temperament and everything, so he came back to the plate and violated the commandment against swearing until he was ordered out of the game. Then Walt McCredle came up to the plate and told Kason that he knew the ball was fair and that Blue was all wrong in making a kick. No wonder the ballplayers feel like fighting their heads off for Walt with reverse Eng lish. The Portland club was only eight runs ahead when Blue made his kick. Ken Penner pitched a swell game of ball and was never in danger after the first inning, when Paddy Siglin s boot gave Murphy a life and he scored on Wllle's hit and Roche's fly to left. On the showing today, Portland is the club that should be battling for first place, while the Oaks should be in their customary position down near the base ment. Summary: BEATS ST.

SANTA BARBARA, Cal., June 20. Joe Foxen broke all local records when he landed a Jew fish weighing 485 pounds at the local wharf this morning. T I - 'HE player who fancies a half swing -which must needs be a flat one will never feel at home with a brassle. There is no room for the club to graze the ground six inches before reaching the ball; and this is just where a flat swing always lets the player down. Besides, with a flat swing the ball, be It struck ever so true, leaves the club and continues with- a low trajec tory, and this is fatal when a bunker guards the way some 50 yards ahead. The club should meet the ball at the lowest level of its arc and be carried forwards and upwards; then, if your swing be correct, it will, lift the ball every -time. You cannot take liberties with this club. There can be no question of at tempting a pull unless the lie be good You can slice with ease the merest novice will show you tiow to do it; but so surely as you attempt a pull from a tight lie you will smother the ball nine times out of ten. Always tilt the face of the club back a little in playing "in land lies" with either braseie or cleek; but. having done so, do not turn the right hand over the left at the moment of striking with the brassie to such an extent as with a cleek. The reason is that while the loft on the iron clubs re moves the fear of driving tne Dan down, in the case of the brassie this is a .danger which cannot be ignored. mm PICKED TO WjN AMERICAX SPORTIXG EDITORS GIVE VIEWS. Opinion. Is- Expressed Dcmpsey Will Be Defeated, if Champion Gets Into Condition. JEFFRIES TO OPERATE STAGE Former Champion Applies for Li cense at Los Angeles. LOS ANGELES. June 20. James J. Jeffries, former champion heavyweight boxer of the world, is going into the automobile stage business.

Jeffries stated he intended his line to carry both freight and passengers, but the former would make up the bulk of the business. His machines will carry milk and garden produce, the ex champion said. Also the boxer asked lor a permit to drive, saying that he might want "to sit in on a pinch."

"Jess Willard ought to win the fight against Jack Dempsey at Toledo on July 4, and will if he can get into con dition," is the way Burt Whitman, sporting editor of the Boston Herald, looks at the coming heavyweight brawl. "And it is my belief that such a clean-living, hard-thinking, business- HKe sort of a gentleman can get into fighting condition," concluded Mr. Whitman. Roger Ferri, sporting editor, Bridge port (Conn.) Times, does not look at , the tangle in the same light. Says Mr. Ferri: "While the fact that physical ly Jess Willard, champion heavyweight of the world, is perfect, must be readi ly admitted, never did I feel that at heart the Kansas cowboy was a cham pion. Never can I forget that miser able showing that Jess made in his bout with Frank Moran at the Garden. I had heard, but later I saw and be lieved, that Willard, while gifted as few men are, a good, scientific battler with a punch could bring him down to defeat.
