At Seattle No game, teams traveling. At Portland Xo game, teams traveling. At San Francisco San Prancisco Sac ramento 0. At I. os Angeles Los Angeles 6. Salt Lake 3. BY HARRY M. GRAYSON. Outfielder "Biff Schaller was pur chased outright from Seattle yesterday by the Portland Baseball company. Judge William V. McCredie last niyht ordered him to leave the Sound city at midnight and report ready for action to make his debut as a Beaver in this afternoon's game between the Mack men and Oaks, which commences at 3 o'clock. Schaller is being trans ferred to the local aggregation for a cash consideration, the amount of which the Beaver prexy refused to di vulge. Manager Walter McCredie was in dire straits for an outfielder when he and Judge McCredie closed the deal. Richard Cox, it developed yesterday, broke a small bone in his right ankle when he slid into third base in the sixth inning of the first same at Se attle Monday and will be out for the balance of the season. For seven weeks George Maisel has been hors de combat as a result of wrenching his knee at Los Angeles. The accident cost hini a chance of finishing the 1919 season with the Cin cinnati Reds and also cost the Mc Credies a pile of money and a couple of players. When Frank Walter quit the team in Salt Lake everything ran along smoothly for a time, for Speas filled the niche, but since that time Willie has developed a pair of bum legs. If Schaller shows up in time today he'll play right field with .Maisel or Speas in center and Jack Farmer in left. The fuardian of the middle pas ture all depends on who is in the best shape Maisel or Speas. ... Schaller ought to do the Portland club a lot of good. Until this season he has always been a charmed circle hitter. Thus far this semester with San Francisco and Seattle he has hit for a mark of .222 in 41 games. He did not play ball last season on account of the war and found it difficult to get going, the Seals recently releasing him to Seattle. In 1917 Schaller hit .314 for San 1 rancisco in l&l games. He was at bat 657 times, made 206 hits and scored 91 runs.. Schaller Is very popular here, always giving a manager all there is in him. He came to the Seals several seasons back, drifting down from the big show. "Biff" covers a world of ground and has 'a remarkable arm. Three weeks of very important base ball will be officially opened at Twenty-fourth and Vaughn streets to day when Portland and Oakland renew hostilities. The battles this week are sure to be hard fought, for let it be related that the Beavers and Oaks have been .tusseling for sixth place sinte Hector was the well-known infant canine. Walter Henry McCredie's dilapitated crew finds itself facing the huge task of taking six out of seven if they hope to dislodge the Ossified Ones from the sixth niche in the percentage column. This seems well-nigh impossible, but "our boys'" compose one of the best home-town baseball aggregations in me universe and may register a surprise. When the Oaks get through here next Sunday afternoon Vinegar Wili um Kssick's Vernon Tigers will be the guests, after whom come the Angels. These two collections of baseball bric-a-brac are fighting tooth and nail for the league leadership and will make everything count while in our midst, especially in view of the fact that Salt Lake is pressing the pair of them. Walter McCredie herdedihis flock in to the city early yestoipay morning after losing another s iries to the Rainiers. whicn conclude 1 four weeks of very disastrous trav-j. Hut nine contests out of 29 wei e. won while on foreign battlefields. All the hired men agree that the break 1 were against the home town crew J"hile on the jaunt. 1 mj flashing Dplmar How ird, who an nounced in San Franci .co yesterday that he would retire as the Oak boss at the end of the seasc ,t, will arrive with a batbag full of new tossers this morning. Outfielder Dick Cox. who broke a small bone in his right ankle sliding In the first game at Stattle Monday, had been cautioned many times by "Walt McCredie and the rest of the party to learn to slide properly, and failed to master the art before the ac cident took pi ice. ' Portland's bard luck nt the Sound city was due to the fact that the Mackian machine was forced to ply every single tango with a makeshift lineup. Captain Paddy Siglin tried to eppar a handful of dirt and one base ball with the index finger of the risrht hand early in the series and was forced to call it quits for the week. Wes Kingdon. Los Angeles schoolboy, filled in at second base. He looked all to the gravy as a fielder, but estab lished a world's record for striking out. Mack says the kid is fast, however, which helps some. He'll undoubtedly be carried for the balance of the semester, and may develop into an Eddie Collins for all anyone knows. Siglin probably will play second base tod a v. Pitcher Joe "Dailey. who made good with the "Beavers in 1917. was waiting for the club when it reached Seattle, and accompanied the locals here yes terday. He is just out of the army and will be readv for his turn in a week. Pitcher Herman Pillette and South raw Fred Libke of the Astoria Marine Iron works team, may get trials with the locals during the three weeks of home play. Sergeant Ernie Frye. the Grants Pass lad recommended by Chub Pernoll, is another who rates a chance in fast company. BEES LOSE TO LOS ANGELES Casey Smith Lets Sacs Mown AYitli Four Scattered Hits. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 12. San Fran ciifco opened the series with Sacramento with a victory. Casey Smith pitched for the Seals and allowed only four scattered hits and pitched six hitless innings. Sacramento held San Francisco score less until the sixth, when Caveny opened with a single, was sacrificed to second and scored on Schick's single to center. The Seals scored again In the eighth.

New records for the American amateur trapshooting championship and the professional championship of the grand American handicap trapshooting tournament were established this afternoon when the winners in the respective events, Frank M. Troeh, Vancouver, Wash., and Bart Lewis, Auburn, III., broke the entire 20 targets thrown. Never before in competition from 18 yards had the entire programme been run without a miss. The best previous performance at 18 yards was by Troeh here two years ago, when he won the event with 199 out of 200. J. .E. Jennings of Todmorton, Canada, was second to Troeh with 198. Wool folk Henderson of Lexington, Ky., champion of that state, and T. L. Edens, Phoenix, Ariz., Arizona champion, tied for third place with 197. Henderson won the place in three shoot-offs. For the professionals Charley Spercer of St. Louis, Mo., and B'red Gilbert, Spirit Lake, la., each broke 198 targets, with William Crosby, O'Fallon, 111. f next with 197. The squad in which Troeh shot, com posed of Mark and Nick Arie, Charles Powers and E. V. Kirby, broke 977 of 1000 targets thrown. That also was a new world's record for 18 yards. The scores in this championship also decided the makeups of the east and west teams to contest Thursday, the highest ten men from each section makinpr the teams. In order to reduce the teams to ten men each, some shoot olfs will be necessary because of ties. Among the qualifying shooters are: Wet Troeh, Vancouver, Wash., 200; Fast Jennings, Tedmorton, Canada, 19S. The national amateur championship at doubles and singles and the junior championship will be shot tomorrow. zil . r. .. Wis I Fii ri Hlne Hader. . . Hdhani. Cox Koehler. Baker. . . K7 H.

PHEASANT IS DEFENDED SAXTIAM SPORTSMEN DEMAND CLOSED SEASON. State Commission Also Vrged to Close Toad Creek to Protect Trout From Nets. ALBANY, Or., Aug. 12. (Special.) An air-tight closed season on China pheasants in Linn county this year was the recommendation unanimously adopted at a meting of the Santiam Game and Kish association last night. The state game and fish commission wilt be asked to act in accordance. That Toad creek, sole feeder of Clear and Fish lakes, above Detroit, be in definitely closed to fishermen was an other plea the local sportsmen decided to make to the state commission. Su pervisor C. C. Hall reported that Toad creek is the only place the lake fish have to spawn, and that he counted more than 300 six-inch trout in one small hole there last Sunday. So called sportsmen are hauling them out by the bucketful, using grab hooks and nets. Extermination of wolves and other predatory animals in the Santiam Na tional forest was pointed out as im perative in order to protect the deer. The association is attempting to secure a trapper for the reservethis winter to decrease the wolf pack. f 'S-Ci 13 cents a package CAMELS supply cigarette contentment beyond any thing you ever experienced!

With the arrival this week of the Presidio team, of San Franclsro, all of the reserve officers' training corps teams are at the navy rille range, here ready for the national rifle match this month. There were six reserve officers' training corps training camps in the United States situated at Camp Devens, Mass.; Camp Lee, V'a. ; Camp Zachary Taylor, Ky. ; Camp Funston Camp Custer, Mich.; Presidio Francisco, Cal. Since these training camps, as to distance, are distributed equally throughout the territorial limits of the United States, the schools and colleges represented on the respective teams comprise all sections of the entire country. . Through the combined efforts of the Kan. ; of San national rifl-e association and the exe cutive officer of the national matches, these officers' training corps were placed on the same basis as the national guard and the state teams. The commanding offioer of each re serve officers' training corps training camp was authorized to designate a representative team of 14 students to compete in this national match. Upon completion of the national match, special trophies will be pre sented to the reserve officers training corps team making the highest aggre gate score, anil also the individuals who head the list. In view of th fact that this is the first time in the history of national rifle matches that the organized mili tary training at schools and colleges ever has been represented, the results will be keenly followed by the schools throughout the entire country.

An nouncement that he will quit the team as soon as he can sell his interests therein, "but at any rate by the end of the season," was made by Del How ard, manager of the Oakland club in the Pacific Coast league, while pass ing through here on his way to Port land, according to a published state ment here today. The statement, said to have come di rectly from Howard, gives large ranch interests at Paso Robles, Cal., as the reason for his quitting. The announcement regarding Man ager Howard quitting Oakland as soon as he can sell his interests in the club or at the end of the season came as a distinct surprise. Howard will arrive in Portland this morning with his team to open the series with the Beavers this afternoon. Since Bud Sharp won a pennant for the Oaks several years ago the trans bay tribe has had a fearful job in getting a successful leader until How ard quit his Paso Robles ranch three years ago to take things in hand. It is said that he purchased a half inter est in the club at that time. Howard managed the Seals prior to the advent of Harry Wolverton.' Since late Bud Sharp's time three good baseball men hav failed dismally as managers at Oakland. They are Arthur Devlin, Honus Mitze and Rowdy Elliott. In juries to stellar players like Harry Krause and Jack Miller have been In strumental in keeping the Oaks out of tifce race this season. Married Women Form Ball Team. SUXNTSIDE, Wash.. Aug. 12.
