The Angels won the first, 7 to 6, in 10 innings, and Portland took the other, 3 to 1, in 11 innings. In the morning game, Portland had a three-run lead when the last half of the 10th opened. Two were out before the Angels scored, but when they did start run-making they continued until they had the four needed to win. Portland got a big lead off Crandall, but the Angels evened the count in the sixth. Sutherland, who succeeded Penner, proved an easy mark. Oldham and Brown had a southpaw duel in the afternoon and '"Red" was entitled to the victory. With the ex ception of the fifth inning when Ellis singled 'and Niehoff followed with a long double on which "Rube" scored, the Angels were baffled. Portland opened with a run when Speas doubled and went to third on Westerzil's sacrifice and scored on Blue's infield out. The Beavers then found Brown a puzzle until the 11th when Speas reached first on an error. Westerzil sacrificed him along and then Blue drove a homerun to left center for the tallies that sewed up the game. Sensational fielding marked the play In both games. Fournier set what is -re'garded as a record for first basemen in one day by accepting without an error, 44 chances. He had 36 putouts and eight assists. McCredie is boosting Harry "Williams, local sporting writer, for president of lie league. The scores: Morning game: Portland I Los Angeles B R H O Al 11 it 11 V J Eneas, m . 1 2 0.

DRAFT SCHEDULE RAISED S Leagues Charged With Attempt to Resume Drawing on Small Associations Xor Players. NEW YORK. Aug; 3. With the de mand that the major leagues live up to the agreement entered into with the minors at the conference in this city last January, David L. Fultz. president or the International league and spokes man for the minor associations, stated today: "We are not going to lose the frurts of the arrangement made last winter simply because the majors now rind that they made a bad bargain." Fultz, jn a prepared statement, out lined the case of the minor baseball leaprues in part as follows: "Although the minor leagues of pro fessional baseball have been the great developers of playing talent, they have never received the financial reward which their important position in the baseball world would justify. Request for Higher Prloe Denied. "This condition was unquestionably trought about to a large extent by the" ruie. wnicn permitted the major leagues arbitrarily to take from each minor league club at the end of each season one or mo:e of its players at stated prices for each classification. "In an endeavor to lessen the burden of this unfair rule, the minor leagues, at a meeting in New York, January 16. 1919, requested a revision upward of the draft prices, placing that for AA player at $7500. This request Mr. Herr mann, acting for the major leagues, at rnce den-ed. He said, however, that if the minor league clubs wished to do so they had the consent of the major leagues to withdraw from the national agreement and operate alone. This of fer the minor leagues at once accepted "The national association on the fol lowing day drew up a tentative form of agreement embodying the arrange ments made at the joint meeting. The tentative agreement was submitted to the national commission but was never signed by them. Agreement Lightly Taken. "It appears that the National league at least, has gone on record that the agreement made with the minors in January is a scrap of paper, and there is a clear intimation that the majors expect again to draft minor league players. "For sentimental reasons many of us were not in favor of dissolving the national agreement, but preferred ; equitable change instead. However, our pian, as already mentioned, was turned down by the national commis sion and the dissolution, which they themselves suggested, was agreed to. "The lifting of the draft means an advantage of at least $75,000, and pos sibly $100,000 to each one of the class AA league.!." S L NEW YORK NATIONALS OUTDISTANCED. ARE Chicago Falters in Americans, but Retains First Place Despite the Loss of 4 of 7 Games. NEW YORK, Aug. 3 Cincinnati ousted New York from the National league leadership last Friday and, by winning the series two games to one, had a lead of 1 Vz games over its rivals today. In the American League Chi cago faltered, losing four games out of seven, but retained its lead. The St. Louis Browns advanced to engage in a close four-cornered fight for second place with Cleveland, Detroit and New York. The Indians had second place to themselves after today's victory over Washington. Efforts to strengthen their forces were made last week by three leading National league clubs and the New York Americans.
