The I'ortlan dteam wound up its spring: training in the orange belt today by defeating the fast Ontario c lub IS to 0, and then packed bag and baggage and boarded a "rattler" for Salt Uke, to open the 18th season of the Pacific Coast league Tuesday afternoon.

Los Angeles outfielder cadet .who was left behind, will re join the club next week at Sacramen to, and will be with the Beavers when they open at home April 20 against Los Angeles. Mac Has Sartorial Grouch. Big Walter McCredie trundled aboard train with a grouch as bis as a haystack. Snappy, new uniforms ordered weeks ago to be delivered to the Beavers at Ontario on March 24 have not arrived and Mack's assort ment of hand-painted, embroidered athletes will have to open the 1920 season before the elite of Salt Lake in the faded and frazzled raiment of yesteryear. Some of the old "una" are moth-eaten and some are worn out in the seat, and, with snow on the ground at Salt Lake, the outlook (sartarially is not altogether cheerful. Because of the kink in Kallio's nalary arm either Sutherland or Poison probably the former will twirl for Portland in the opener against old man "Spider" Baum of the Bees. McCredie hasn't heard any new word from Detroit regarding a second-sacker within the past 48 hours, so it is certain that Spranger will hold down second base in the opening series despite his .083 spring bat average. Detroit's failure to send either Siglin or a capable successor to the Beavers may cost McCredie a good many thousand dollars. Fans don't like to see their favorite team get off to a bad start and some times it is hard to get the disgruntled ones back to the park once they quit attending. Outfielder Walker Sold. McCredie announced tonight that he was in the market for a new out fielder and also for a new pitcher. Outfielder Walker of last year's crew has been sold to the Rocky Mount club of the Virginia league, or some such organization, for $2500. He re fused to report to Portland or to any club except his home town. Rocky Mount. The deal with New Orleans for Pitcher Torkelson still is bang ing fire. McCredie received a telegram yes terday offering a new barter and he telegraphed a new offer for the New Orleans' epitball pitcher. Whether or not he will be able to use Torkelson if he gets him after the opening of the season is a question. Under the league rules each manager must submit a list of spitballers be fore April 6 and only these pitchers will be permitted to use the irrigated delivery. Manager McCredie sent in his list today. It contains the name of eight pitchers and as there are only eight on the Beavers' roster, including veterans and rooks, it would seem that Mack had every contingency fairly well covered. None of the Port land pitchers are spitball exponents. nut McCredie says it doesn't cost any thing to certify them and thus avoid any misunderstanding with the league officials. Aside from Barnabe, the Portland athletes are in good physical -ondition. Lew Blue had his legs and arms mangled and manicured and man-handled by an osteopath in Los Angeles the other day and says the shaking up did him a lot of good. Kallio will be ready to take his turn by midweek. Batting Order Anaoiuiecd.

Thar' ejus I rTupagccHTcsy APRIL FOOL GOLF PLAYED GEORGE CARPENTER OF MED . FORD TARES HONORS. Weird Contest at Del Monte Results When Holes and Flags Are Removed From Greens. DEL MONTE, Cal., April 4. There was many a good one put over on the golfers in the special April Fool's day competition on the Del Monte No. 1 course. The field was started off for handicap medal play and told to "play the course as she lay." This sounded simple enough but when the golfers reached the putting greens they discovered in some instances that the hole was not where the flag was. In other cases the hole was not even on the green and the players had quite a lot of pleasure joshing each other. The climax came at the ISth green. Players came down the hill and they could not find any trace of the pin or hole. A closer inestigation, how ever, revealed that the hole was lo cated right on the edge of the bunker. Quite a number of the boys rolled their balls beyond the hole into the bunker which required a shot on to cerned his fighting ability, but the veteran handler of boxers had to be shown, so he pitted Sheppard right off . with three of the best American lightweights, Ritchie Mitchell. Eddie Fitzsimmons and Willie Jackson Lawrence was satisfied with Shep pard's work against this trio and" he informed the Englishman he could stay here as long as he wished. Lawrence has received numerous offers for Sheppard's services since his bout with Jackson. A promoter in Columbus. Ohio, wants him for a bout with Dundee, and the Denver people would have Sheppard box Jackson again. Sheppard has an unusually good ring record. He has participated in 90 bouts and scored 63 knockouts. He says he is willing to meet Ameri can lightweights as heavy as 140 pounds. Sheppard stood off the hard hitting Mitchell for 10 rounds in Mil waukee. Mitchell recently . stowed away Llew Edwards, the Australian lightweight. The only man who ever defeated Mitchell was Leonard. some players went so far as to stick hairpins around the hole on the tricky 16th and the players could not understand why their perfect putts were not being sunk. The win ner of the best gross turned up in George Carpenter of Med ford. Or., whose card read S6. The best net went to H. E. Whitney of Chicago, whose score was 95-16-79.

Eight million trout and 7,000,000 sal mon fry will be ready to liberate from the state fish hatchery on the McKenzie river 35 miles east of Eu gene this spring, according to N. F.

PORTLAND MAY GET CRACK SOUTHPAW IN DETROIT TRADE Ontario vory Hunters Ply Flourishing Trade Extracting: Bearer Tusks in Search for Fountains of Infection. ONTARIO, April 4. (Special.) Among the players whom Portland ikely will receive in the interchange between the Beavers and Detroit will be a southpaw pitcher named Okrie, last year the big star of the London club of the Michigan-Ontario league. Okrie won 11 and lost 5 for Lon don in 1920 although his club ranked next to the tail-end aggregation. And. what is more significant, finished the year with a "runs responsible for" record averaging only one run per nine innings pitched. This is a remarkable record per haps the best record possessed by any pitcher in baseball last year. In the Pacific Coast league, for instance, Krause led in low run average with 1.75 and Brown of the Angels ranked second with 2.03. The fact that Okrie held his opponents to an average of one run per game through the entire season doesn't prove that is ripe enough to stand the coast league batsmen on their sun-burned flappers but it does prove that Okrie is a promising candidate for somebody's ball club. Detroit picked him up last fall and took him to spring camp in the south, and, according to the Detroit news papers, Navin wants to ship him to the Portland club for development. McCredie says he is willing to take him and there the deal stands. Honeck of the Beavers hails from Michigan and he thinks Okrie will be a big leaguer in another year. Honeck says Okrie is a Detroit boy with a tremendous amount of "stuff." Just what other twirler or twirlers Detroit expects to ship to Portland nobody knows not even McCredie. Mack has advised Detroit to give Red Oldham a thorough tryout. and as Oldham does not join the Tigers until April 10 there seems slight possibility of him coming back to the Beavers for two'or three months. If at all. Slim Love may gpt the gate, for his work this spring with the Tigers has been very indifferent and phlegmatic "What do you think of a club that would offer $5000 for Oldham or Love?" queried McCredie the other evening at dinner. This auerv fol lowed immediately on the heels of a discussion of Eddie Maier's trip east in quest of new twirling material for the Vernon cluB, bo evidently Mack had the Vernons in mind when he made the crack about $5000. Ma-ier is ' decidedly anxious to win another pennant and It lfl not sur prising that he. has offered $5000 for Oldham or Love as the Coast cham pions are weak in the box thisyear. The Vernon offer is interesting in that it follows that the McCredies may some day have to meet the Ver non offer to keep Oldham or Love from going to Essick's aggregation. And $5000 is a bundle of yen. Ontario dentists are doing a thriv ing business at the exper.ee of the Portland ball athletes. Baker started the teeth rolling by having an in fected wisdom molar extracted. Rudy Kallio reported with an infected tooth in the upper story and Trainer Howell bundled him off to a dentist to have it yanked. Experience has demon strated that a great deal of the trouble that pitchers have with tMeir arms is due to infection at the root of the teeth. Although the Ontario ball boosters will lose several hundred dollars as a result of financing the spring train ing work of the Beacvers, tentative offers for a return visit in 1921 have been made to Manager McCredie. Under the terms of the contract On tario agreed to feed and house 26 players for ,2a - days, or vice versa, and in return were t otake all gate receipts earned by the Beavers dur ing the month of training. The local boosters expected to make about $1500 on the Chicago-Portland game but rain interfered and the postpone ment to a later date cut . receipts more than 50 per cent. Lou Kennedy, the champion index finger - typist among the baseball scribes in camp, tried to break in as a vineyardist last summer. Lou waterea ana nursed a big vine through all its teething troubles, only to have somebody steel the lone bunch of grapes that graced the bush. "Worse luck than mine," chimed in "Tex" Wisterzil. "A couple of years ago I planted a watermelon vine close to a fence separating my yard from a enighbor's. One tentacle of the vine crept through a hole In the fence and the only watermelon grew in the other fellow's back yard. However, we got together and went 50-50 when the melon was ripe for cutting." "Babe" Pi nelli probably will act as infield utility man for . Detroit this . year. ' . STALLING tactics can make the work of an umpire most unpleasant. If a ball club for some reason becomes peeved at the judge of play and de cides to show up the official simply in the spirit of revenge, it is possible to make things decidedly uncomfortable for 5. couple of hours. Of course the umpire has a weapon that he can hold over the head of the players, the for feiture of the game, but he hates to resort to such drastic measures unless absolutely necessary. In forfeiting the ball game he fails to give the spectators a run for their money, so naturally he tries to avoid such a happening. A few years ago, just how badly a ball club can make an umpire look, was forcibly brought to my attention by the way a certain club acted to ward a recruit umpire who was break ing into the big show. Now the big gest asset an umpire can have is the confidence of the players. If he has the confidence of the athletes he can often get away with a very poor rul ing, simply because the players on past performances know that the de cision was honestly given without fear or favor, and that the umpire simply booted" it. Such confidence can eas ily be won by years of actual per formance in which the umpire rigidly follows such rules. Jt so happened that the recruit urn pire had been haying his share ot troubles with this certain club. It always seemed that every close decis on that came up on the road with the new umpire working, went against them. The players to a man got the notion that the recruit waa a "home' umpire, although I feel sure they were absolutely wrong in such a deduction The blow-off came in a rather import. ant game which we were working at Boston. Late in the game, the eighth inning, I believe, the recruit umpire, working the plate, called a Boston player safe at the plate on a very close play. The game had been hotly contested, the score at the time being 2- to 2, and the close decision . broke the tie, as well as the strain under which the two clubs had been playing. - No sooner had the decision been given than all the visiting players be gan to flock around the umpire. He was a little fellow and from ray posi tion at first base I lost sight of him as the players gathered around. It took about 15 minutes for the smoke to clear away. The umpire would have been justified in forfeiting the game long before that time. Probably he would have been better off had he done so. He put out the third base man, shortstop and first baseman of the visiting team,. also the manager of the club. Of course it was necessary that these players be replaced before the game . could be resumed. The manager, on being sent to the club house, went to the bench to get his sweater. On his way past the umpire the official asked who would play the vacated pos'tions, to which the man ager replied: "I am out of the game. I have nothing to say. Catcher So and So. is in charge of the club. He can use his own judgment." It so happened that the catcher placed in charge of the team was in extreme . left field warming up a pitcher. The umpire yelled for him to come in. but the shouts were ig nored. The recruit umpire then pro ceeded to walk out to the left field foul line. It was a long walk. The manager had figured it all out so as to make things as unpleasant as pos sible for the umpire. The catcher ex pressed surprise at the appointment; refused to accept it at first, then took it good naturedly and proceeded to make the necessary substitutions. All of this took at least five mora min utes. It finally seemed as if the game would be resumed. All the players had returned to their positions, the pitcher was ready to pitch, then the center lielder yelled ror time, pro ceeded to walk slowly over to the left fielder and engaged him in conver sation for exactly three minutes. In the club house that evening I told the recruit that .was the spot he should have forfeited the game, if there ever was one. As Tim Hurst often said, the hours 3 to 5 can't be beat, but sometimes those two hours seem like a year. Steelier and Lewis Matched. 'NEW TORK. April 4.

Milwaukee Main Events Distract Fans Attention From Classy Set of Shorter Bouts. BY RICHARD R. SHARP. Talk about fighters entering the movie.

It was n creat success, both artistically and financially, until Walker's wife hap pened to drop in a theater one after' noon in Kansas City. 50 Ftft of Love m. Walker was the center of a thrill incr romance in which he met a cham pion and beat him. lived up to the honen of a beautiful maiden and triumphed in a fusillade of hugs and kisses.

Near Park (Opposite Majestic Theater. , The two main events have so over shadowed the preliminaries that the fans have been paying little attention to what is on the lower end of the bill, but they should be in for three good scraps with two ix-round bouts and a four-rounder scheduled. Joe Mandot, the New Orleans light weight, who a few years ago was rated one of the best men in the world at his weight, will meet Muff Bronson in the top six-round setto and Joe is far from through, accord ing to Seattle scribes who took in the Mandot-Harper match in Seattl last Friday night. Writer Boosts Maodot. The Times writer had the following to say apropos the match: "Bobby Harper received a hair-lin decision over Joe Mandot, the vetera New Orleans lightweight, but th judges appeared a bit lenient in fa voring the Seattle youngster in s close a contest. "The judges were probably prompt ed in giving it to Harper because o his great work in the second round when he showed his best. The Seattl lightweight continues to show marked improvement. "Harper was decidedly worsted the clinches in the first round b holding Mandot loosely and giving the latter a chance at free play for his right, which he turned into a half hook to the nead. The old-timer's work in the clinches taugh Bobby something, and he took means to cir cumvent it from that time on after lo.sing the opener on points. "Mandot began the third round with a series of body feints that puzzled Harper for a moment, whipping in a left or right swing. Harper escaped damage, however, for he shot inside the punches, and they usually landed high on the cheek or back of his head. Harper pummeled the pit for the most part in this round, but Mandot weath ered nicely. "The fourth round found Mandot swinging, and many of his punches landing. In fact, there were few misses and little ducking by either boxer. Each preferred to stand and fight it out, which made the bout one of the prettiest of the winter. Neither was in distress at any time, and two more evenly matched boys could hard ly be found. The short game appeared to puzzle Mandot. who is a distance battler, but he put up aplendid bout and showed that he was far from be ing a has-been, at least in coast box ing circles. Harper was a pretty tough trial horse for the veteran French man to try a comeback on and he did well enough to merit further "con sideration from tbe hands of the pro moters. Billy Mascott is primed for his six round struggle with Danny Edwards, while Freddie Lough has been work ing hard for his four-round tangle with Carl Martin. Allie Nack, the New Tork boxer, who registered one of the biggest hits ever recorded here against Puggy Morton at the last show staged by the Portland boxing commission, will meet Harry Sen um an in a six-round tilt in Tacoma Friday night. litz county schools will be held at Woodland Saturday.
