SAN' FRANCISCO. 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:

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.

"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. And personally I belteve that
Jack Dempsey is just that sort of a
scrapper."
Bat Masterson, New York Morning
Telegraph, says that if Willard is in
shape, he will win.
Seymour S. Cohen, Newburgh Daily -

"Bob Fitzsimmons fought the best
and won when he was in the late 40s,"
chirps Bill Hart, the "movie" hero.
"Dempsey -was under contract to play
5 towns in 25 days," said Barney
Gerard, manager of Jack Dempsey's
Athletic Carnival company. "During the
tour Dempsey took on 15 comers who
tried to stay three rounds and each one
was rocked to sleep.
'According to my calculations, the
15 heavyweight aspirants weighed in
the neighborhood of 3000 pounds. In
all the tours conducted by me I never
saw a fighter show to such a great ad
vantage as did Jack Dempsey."
