THE MORNING OltEGONIAX, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1919. " 17
BILL ESSICK SEES
DANGER
BEAVERS
Head
of Coast Champs Gets
Dope in Detroit.
PORTLAND TO BE AIDED
Jennings Has Plenty of Material
and- Is Expected to Send Good
Players to McCredie.
Can you guess the team that Bill
Essick, manager of the 1919 Vernon
Pacific Coast league champions' is
looking to make the other clubs of
the circuit hop for the pennant in
1920?
It is none other than our own little
Beavers, owned, controlled and pre
sided over by Judge William Wallace
MoOredie, and managed by the Her
culean Chieftain, Walter McCredie.
Essick, who only recently 'returned
from an extended trip in the east, has
it figured that the help Detroit will
come through with to Portland will
have the tendency to put the Beavers
up in the front rank. While in the
east Essick had a talk with Frank
Navin. president of the Detroit club,
and got an insight on what he might
leloase to Portland. It was rumored
that San Francisco was slated to get
a chance at some of the talent that
Navin and Ilughie Jennings might see
fit to let go. but the former told Ks
sick that Portland will get all the
first choice, and that the other clubs
would then come in for some atten
tion if they were after it.
In looking over the possibilities
that miirht be sent to Portland Es
sick had it doped that Kallio and
Cunningham, pitchers; Dyer, lnfielder,
and Nickolson, infielder and outfield
er, would be four men who might
Wear Braver uniforms in 1920. So
far Essick is right. Kallio already
has been turned over to McCredie and
Cunningham practically so. Dyer
played third base for Detroit last year
and would fit in pretty at second for
the Beavers next season. Walter Mc
Credie has not heard anything defi
nite from Detroit as to either Dyer
or Nickolson and has not been prom
ised either of them, but from the
looks of the situation, one or both
of them will likely come. Dyer is
said to be a "whiz" and it is under
stood that Detroit would do some
thing in the line of sending a player
out to take Siglin's place. Nickolson
plays either in the infield or outfield
'and is a former member of Mike Kel
ly's St. Paul American association
club.
Essick also said that Detroit is bet
ter supplied with an abundance of
talent slated for tryouts than any
other club in the American league,
and that McCredie is exceptionally
fortunate in being hitched up to the
Tiger star.
The turning over of Harry Wolter
to Seattle by Manager Bill Rodgers
of the Sacramento club did not come
as any surprise. It has been known
for some time that Rodgers had been
planning on trading or selling Harry.
"Wolter and Rodgers didn't hitch
well last season, Harry accused Bill
of trying tj teach him how to play
the outfield, how be should hold his
bat at the plate, and all that sort of
thing.
Seattle will get a mjghty good out
gardener in the former senator.
Branch Rickey has telegraphed
"Red" Killefer, Ar.gel manager, to
stop off in St. Louis on his way east
and have a talk with him before he
disposes of either Brown or Pertica.
Several clubs in the American
league have made overtures to the
St. Louis Browns for the services of
Joe Gedeon. The former Bee is rated
as one of the best second basemen
in the league. Other teams are also
after Sothoron, Shocker and Williams.
Ray Bates may be seen at first
base for Seattle next season, as the
Purple Sox have Rod Murphy, the for
mer Oakland first sacker on its ros
ter for next season. Bates is a reg
ular third baseman, but he has had
poor feet and his throwing arm went
back on him last season. He can be
put In the "cleanup" class as a hitter,
and the Seattle fans are ricking him
for first base in 1920.
There Is not much of a chance for
Writer McCredie obtaining Outfielder
Duncan . and Infielder Berghammer
from St. Paul for Fred Walker and
Jack Farmer. It is almost a cer
tainty that Walker will not report
and if Farmer cared to play ball he
would rather play in the coast league
than the American association. The
offer has been made, however, but
Mike Kelly is one smart manager and
has plenty of strings to tie to any
trade he might make.
BALL PLAYERS COME HIGH
Seattle Skipper Decides Eastern
Market Is Too J3earlsh.
ST. PAUL, Minn.. Dec 18. William
H. Klepper. president of the Seattle
club in the Pacific Coast league, was
a visitor in St. Paul the other day.
He was accompanied by Clyde Wares,
manager of the club.
While In the twin city, Klepper
looked up Manager Mike Kelley of
the Saints, and asked him about what
it would cost to obtain Elmer Miller
of St. Paul, Tim Hendryx of Louisville
and Sam Crane, crack shortstop of the
Indianapolis club. After a moment of
reflection and rapid calculation, Kel
guessed the trio could be hooked for
somewhere between 130,000 and $40,
000, whereupon Mr. Klepper Immedi
ately decided that he would not do
business with the A. A. owners.
Mr. Klepper concluded that A. A.
territory Is poor fishing, and it was
a cold day anyway, so he lost little
time in catching the next train south.
In Chicago he may look into the state
of the market as regards Jim Vaughn,
Hap Felsch and Buck Weaver.
There seems to be absolutely noth
ing whatever stirring as to the Saints.
The pennant-winning club will, pro
viding ell Its members report, open
the 1920 season intact, with the addi
tion of Cliff Tockey, who is techni
cally on the suspended list, because
he did not get out of Uncle Sam's
service in time to do any playing.
NO MATTER WHERE YOU
BUY
BUY EARLY
IN THE MORNINGS
THEN
A MERRY XMAS
Tex McDonald probably will be re
turned to Memphis, although he is on
the St. Paul club's reserve list.
Every man who helped land the A
A. flag will be back with the addi
tion of Eddie Foster, who pitched only
a few. games toward ihe end of the
season, rejoining the club too late to
get into the post-season series with
Vernon.
If he starts in 1920 where he left
off in September he bids fair to be the
sweetest southpaw flinger in the en
tire circuit.
- East Season Looked for.
WINNIPEG, Dec. 18. Charles Moll,
manager of the Winnipeg baseball
club, on his return from the south de
clared that the season of 1920 would
be the best that the Western Canada
league has ever had and would be
the first time that a class B league
has ever been organized. Mr. Moll
predicted that the western Canada
fans will witness the fastest baseball
ever played on the western circuits.
