Charley Mullen hopped off to a flying start as pilot of the Seattle club today when he led his pang to a brilliant victory over Skipper Walter's Portland era, two runs to nil. It took three weeks for the club to win two ball games last month. To day's was the second win in as many days, and if the blonde manager can keep the boys playing the kind of base ball that toppled the Beavers, he will soon be knocking at the door of sev enth place. The season is too far gone to talk of pennants, but the club will pull up a couple of notches if it can get the pitching and fielding that char acterized Thursday's victory. Slwanhra Show Life. The pitching was good and the sup port better. Elmer Reiger tossed the best game he has pitched here since he joined the club, and the boys fielded behind him as if to show Boss Mullen that they were something else beside a tail-end club. Jimmy Walsh led the spectacular work with a dazzling catch in deep left, which cut off a run, while Clyde Wares. French and one or two others contributed plays around the Infield which made Skipper Walter tear his hair. Beaver Mincnes Costly. Tea, it was a pretty good-looking hunch which soused McCredie for the eecond time. The Beavers were guilty of three miscues, but both of the Se attle runs resulted from base blows. Pete Lapan's double, followed by Ray French's timely crash through the pitching box, scored the first, while a brace of singles and an infield out brought Meiger over with the second and final run of the afternoon. Penner threw a good game, but the home crew made better use of their seven safe blows, which was as many ai Reiger allowed. Score: Australian Players to Compete in Newport Tournament. NEW YORK.

SAX FRANCISCO, Aue. 7. (Special.) Al T. Baum. president of the coast league, has refused to call a special meeting: of the league directors to act on his resignation. The San Francisco club today made a formal demand upon him to call such a meeting and his reply was that unless four directors made the request he would not call a meeting. He said he could see no rea son why a special meeting should be called. Now the owners of the local club will get busy with the other directors and ask them to attend a meeting. probably Monday. Baum resigned some time ago, but it is understood that he would like to finish out the year. A report comes from the south that Cal Ewing will support Harry Williams, the well-known eport writer of Los Angeles, for president. Harry already has the support of Johnny Powers of the Angels, and Fatty Arbuckle of the Vernon club, and if Ewing gets behind him he will have quite a start. President St rub of the local club says all he wants is a man who is compe tent and who will etay on the job; and if he is ehown that Williams is the right man he will have no objection. He does think the president should be a San Francisco man, however, but will not make an issue of that point. SEATTLE, Aug. 7. W. J. ("Bill") Clymer, recent manager of the Seattle club, will be Seattle's candidate for president of the Pacific Coast baseball league, it was announced tonight. Walter McCredie, manager of the Portland team, now here, joined with President James Brewster of the Se attle club tonight in telegraphing direc tors of all the other clubs asking in dorsement of Clymer to succeed Allan Baum, who desires to retire as president of the league as soon as possible. EWIXG WANTS BASEBALL MAN President of Oakland Club Opposes Business Man Idea. J. Cal Ewing. president of the Oak land club, and for many years the man whose voice has carried most weight in league councils, is in Los Angeles. It may have been private business that took him there, but there is general be lief that Ewing's real purpose in mak ing the trip wa to do a little league politics with the Los Angeles owners. Ewing has openly declared himself in opposition to the San Francisco plan of putting a prominent business man in Baum's place. He thinks that the president of the league should be a man with a wide knowledge of baseball affairs and base ball law, who would not be adverse to sitting down and doing a lot of his own clerical work. Ewing has also said that he will oppose choosing a successor to Baum until he is certain that as good a man as Baum has been found. Ewing has a persuasive way about him and his eloquence may swing two southern California votes to his support. The Strub-Baum squabble was bad business as is the airing of all dirty linen in sports. Baum was slated for the toboggan before the league directors met. Those posted high in baseball knew it, and stories were numerous. Baum sat tight and refused to affirm the move that he was set for decapitation; but Baum himself knew it as well as Strub, Ew ing, Graham et al. Strub will be in baseball longer, it is true, than Baum; but Baum has many friends and will carry them with him. There have been more shakeups in baseball this year than in many a moon. Our own Al Baum of the Coast league steps out as president, while in the American and National league circuits baseball managers have come and gone like shadows in the moonlight. Gavvy Cravath is made manager of the Phil lies; Trls Speaker succeeds Leo Fohl at Cleveland, and Mitchell of the Cubs re signs as president. Carl Mays, former Johnny Powers continues to seek tal ent to bolster up the Angels. He is spending the profits of the club send ing wires eastward and expects to have additional talent en route before next week. He is principall;- depending on the Cubs for a flinger. . Red Oldham did not allow an earned run in the game in which Los Angeles defeated Portland 4 to 1, and which was protested by Walter McCredie. The mishaps of the Beavers gave Los Angeles the victory. Curley Brown did the hurling for the Angels and allowed four scattered bingles. The game was one of the best. McCredie's -protest was on the ground that Paul Fittery left the coaching lino and sent Ray Bates in with what proved to be the winning run. This about as much chance of winning the the dope from the south, Walter has about as much cance of winning the protest as the Beavers have of winning the pennant. Every time Jim Powers sees the name of Hi Jasper in a big league box score it arouses unpleasant memories. Back in 1915 Powers bought Jasper from the White Sox for $1500. When Jasper re ported to the Angels in San Francisco he asked for $200 advance money and the $700 back salary coming to him from the White Sox. He pitched just one game and then jumped to his home in SL Louis. This game, including the player's transportation, cost Powers $2600 for pitching alone, which is prob ably a record.

TACOMA, Wash., Aug. 7. (Special.) Continuing his brilliant work against older and more experienced opponents, Phil Neer, Portland junior wizard, to day entered the finals in the Pacific northwest singles tournament on the courts of the Tacoma Tennis club. Neer disposed of the Harvard star, Leon De Turenne in straight sets 6-4, 6-2. Neer looks like a likely finalist now and unless the dope goes astray will meet Wallace Scott, the speedy Tacoma southpaw in that event Saturday. Other Portland players and teams did not have as much luck as Neer today. Miss Stella Fording, Portland, lost to Miss Sara Livingstone, Seattle, 6-3, 6-3. The Portland doubles team in the men's division also fell by the way side when Neer and Kenneth Smith lost to Bob Wabraushek and Bill Taylor, Seattle, 6-0, 6-3. The women's doubles team of Portland was also eliminated, Campbell and Fording losing to Misses Schreiner and Mc Donald, 3-6, 6-3, 6-2. Wallace Scott and Miss Mayme Mc Donald of Seattle appear to be the likely winners in the mixed doubles. Semi-finals are scheduled for Friday.

The resi dents of San Francisco living on Edge wood avenue want the supervisors to change the name of Willard street to Dempsey avenue. They consider that it would be a fitting thing to name a street after Dempsey in the city where he got his first boxing start and that the change from that of the former champion to the present title holder would be most appropriate.
