THE MORNING OREGONTAN, FRIDAY, DECEMBER .7, 1019. IT V T LOOK FOR SHAKEUP Sale of Racier Only Part of McCredie Programme. MANY HOLES IN LINEUP Three In fielders and One Gardener About Extent of Fixtures for ' Mackmen of 192 0. The announcement that Don Rader, Beaver shortstop and utility infielder last season, had been disposed of for a cash consideration to the Beaumont club of the Texas league by "Judge" and Walter McCredie may be taken only as a forerunner as to some ehakeups ' that are coming In the Beaver ranks before the start of next season. The McCredies are planning on using the ax on others ere long, while several will have to make good or get out during the training season. Boss Walter will have Blue, Kingdon and Wisterzil ready for the infield and that is all that is certain for next season outside of the pitchers. The outfield is decidedly a hazy affair. "Judge" McCredie is of the opinion that Walter will hang on to Dick Cox and not trade him off as quoted by one of the scribes. Cox led the Pa cific Coast league outfielders in field ing for the 1919 season and is not so worse with the bludgeon. He is pop ular with the fans and is practically a fixture with the Beavers. The rest of the outfielders are in doubt. Two or three pitchers, an infielder, a couple of outfielders and a utility man and McCredie will be ready to make an impressive drive for the pennant. That court of last resort, Detroit, will be depended on for at least two and perhaps three players and one or two of them may be twirlers. Several local bush stars will be given the annual opportunity to make good. Sylvester Johnson, a promising right-hand pitcher, who worked in the box for the United Artisans last sea sop, has been signed and will be toted along to the training camp. If he shows coast league caliber he will be retained on the staff. If he shows that he might develop into a real twirler he will be taken care of, meaning that he will be farmed for a little seasoning. Walter McCredie is also sweet on several other Portland youngsters as well as some in California, who he will endeavor to line up for a tryout next spring. If Denny Williams does not go to college it is likely that he will jour ney south with the team and his older brother, Bicky Williams, is also wanted. Denny takes care of one of the garden positions, while Bicky is the nioundman of the family. Mc Credie also likes the work of "Speck" Burko, former Jefferson high school tar. Manager Charley Graham of the Seals has given no hint of the iden tity of the men he expects to get from Washington and Pittsburg for his 1SI20 .Seals. But he has started a lot of specula tion in stove-league circles, where the chief Joy to be derived from ex istence is in the picking of next year's teait.. Graham says one of the men he will get is a pitcher, a right-hander, and a man he knows will be a big success in the league. Wherefore there has been a close perusal of the rosters of the Pitts burg and Washington clubs to locate the man. And opinion is that the man Gra ham has his hooks on is none other than Olaf Erickson. J he sun-kissed Swedish gent has pitcned a few good games in major league circles, but on the whole has been a disappointment. He never got going with Detroit and last mid-sea son was traded to Washington. It was hinted in Washington sev eral weeks ago that he was slated for the minors. He is the pitcher on the clubs Graham is dealing with whose work Graham is mo.st familiar with. IM-lckson was easily the star of all the Coast league's right-handers dur ing me 1917 season. He had to be driven to his work, but once he start ed tie was a wizard with the baseball Ana ne would certainly be a tremen- aous asset to the Seals now that he nas had a couple of years of big league training. ntcner Mike Prendergast of the t'ntiadelphia Nationals has been mir chased by the Salt Lake Coast league ciuo, according to word received at fcait bake from E. Johnson, team manager, who is in southern Califor ma. Prendergast once played with the Chicago Nationals. . . t.avvy Cravath, manager of the Philadelphia National league club. and Wade Killefer will have a talk In reirard to making deal for nluvfra Killefer wants to grab a couple of the Philly athletes. Although that club finished last in the National league, Killefer believes Cravath may have somo young fellows to help him. 'S CASE GOES SEW YORK COURT ASKS FOR TIME OVElt SQUABBLE. Justice Greenbaum. "Is or Is not President Johnson a servant of the board of directors? If he is a. servant of the board why do they not dismiss him if they don't like the way he manages things?" Why, your honor," .replied Mr. Tuttle, "Mr. Johnson claims that he is elected president for 20 years with a salary of $25,000 A year and that he is under a contract and cannot be discharged."

Anderson hit Wills about once that was in the first round. In the second Wills tore loose with an as sortment of right and left hooks to the head. The third found Anderson holding on for dear life. The last punch, a smashing right to the head, made Anderson groggy and he would have been knocked out in another second had not Referee Hanlon stopped the fight and held up Wills' hand as the victor. Other results were as follows: Kddie Mahoney vs. Johnny Webber, draw. Al Nelson vs. Sailor Renshaw, draw. Smiley Bricker won from Felix Villamor. Dick Doolin vs. Wild Willie Webb, a dra-w.

The business meeting of the dele gates Monday will be followed by a banquet in the evening. Two large buck deer are now hanging in cold storage for the banquet.

W. Har giss, head coach, Oregon Agricultural college; Marion McClain, graduate manager, and Bill Hayward, Univer sity ot Oregon. All of the athletic representatives tentatively have mapped out their fcotball, basketball, baseball and their track dates for 1920. The coaches and managers will be in conference today and their schedules will be approved at the conference meeting tomorrow. Several big gridiron battles are scheduled for Portland next fall. It is said that Oregon Agricultural col lege will stage the first 1920 confer ence game in Portland when it clashes with the University of California. ,The Aggies may also play Washington State college in Portland. Manager Richardson stated yesterday that at least two conference games must be played on the Corvallis campus next season. The University of Oregon will play the Aergies at Corvallis, Novem ber 13. This will be staged during homecoming week. The Corvallis lads will journey south to Palo Alto and play Stanford during October. The University of Oregon's big same on the Eugene campus probably will be with the University of Wash- j ington. Oregon contemplates a trip j south to California for a clash with the Golden Bears. It is understood that Manager McClain is figuring on a game with Stanford in Eugene or Portland. - The University of Oregon plans on holding the Pacific coast conference track meet in Eugene in May. This will be the big athletic event during junior week end. The Oregon Agricultural college may decide to stage the far western indctor track meet at Corvallis in their spacious armory. . This event was last held in the northwest in 1915, when it was put on at the Cor vallis institution. The Stanford and California repre sentatives are expected to pass through Portland today en route to Seattle. From a financial standpoint the Oregon Agricultural college enjoyed a great season, according to James J. Richardson, general manager of student activities at the Corvallis in stitution. "A hurried recapitulation of re ceipts and expenditures shows a bal ance of over J6000 on the right side of the ledger," said ttichardson yes terday. "This is about the best finan cial showing the Aggies have ever registered. Of course it is to be ex pected when one considers that we have a wonderfully loyal Btudent-body. which, despite the team's reverses, rallied to their warriors' support to a man. The spirit displayed on the Corvallis campus has been nothing short of marvelous." ' Prospects are bright for some ex cellent intercollegiate basketball games being played in the northwest this season and Portland probably will see all of the conference quintets in action at the Multnomah club against the Winged-M quintet. George A. Anderson, manager of the Mult nomah five, was busy yesterday chat ting with the conference delegates on their way to Seattle and says he is sure of booking each of the teams as they pass through Portland. - The University of Oregon and Ore gon Agricultural college basketball squads are said to be exceedingly large although each institution claims a scarcity of championship material.
