BY JtOSCOE FAWCETT.
While the first move against
gambling in Pacific Coast league ball
parks has been made in San Fran
cisco, spectacular 'raids upon gam
bling elements that infest the Port
land ball orchard are rumored to be
in the making. Judge W. W. He
Crcdie. president of the Portland club,
admitted yesterday that he had re
ceived information from the office of
W. H. McCarthy, the league's chief
executive in San Francisco, tipping
off to him the names of three Port
land gamblers who have been giving
trouble. McCarthy notified the judge
that he intended taking immediate
steps to curb the evil in Portland as
well as in other cities.
The guarded admission made by the
judge yesterday would seem to indi
cate that the Coast league has a
cotorie of Sherlock Holmes" and Nick
Carters in the various ball parks spy
ing on the gamblers. The judge is
taking daily boxing lessons so as to
be ready when the blow falls. He
says he wants to be prepared to hold
his own if any of the disfranchised
gamblers try to spoil his good looks
as they did Prexy McCarthy's.
Gamblers Tine for Jolt.
"I don't want to cause any trouble
but trouble is coming unless the gam
blers lay off baseball." said Judge
McCredie yesterday. "I am glad to
say we have never had any trouble
with any of our players over gam
bling or dealing with gamblers. Man
ager Graham of the San Francisco
club is to be congratulated upon the
prompt manner in which he dis
charged Seaton and Smith. I don't
know what evidence he had but it
must have been sufficient.
"What makes baseball popular is
that every spectator has a chance to
follow every play of being in every
move on the playing field.- Let the
spectators once suspec that the game
is not being played on the square and
baseball will die overnight."
The Portland and Seattle ball clubs
passed through Portland Monday en
route south and Judge McCrcdie
nursed his "rare old Stradivarius" c-r
down to the Union depot and enjoyed
a 15-minute talk with his nephew,
Walter McCredie, and some of the
boys. The Beaver manager was full
of pepper as a result of the six
straight wins over Seattle, which
compensated for the loss of six
straight to the Seals.
Siglin to Help Team.
Mack thinks that with SigJin at
second base Kingdon will play first
class ball from now on and he hopes
to give the Angels a battle this" week.
It must be said that the local fans
are mightily surprised at last week's
showing because the Beavers looked
very anemic during that decomposed
week here against the Seals. Nobody
would have quit them if they had
played good ball and lost but nobody
likes to see games thrown away
through sheer carelessness and lame
brained baseball. Walter started the
week off on the wrong foot by send
ing a rook pitcher against the Seals
the opening day and after that the
boys didn't seem able to get started.
The fans' spirits have revived and
the bunch is pulling hard for the
Beavers to stay up in the charmed
circle. ,
.
Early in April the writer vouch
safed the following forecasts of the
standing of the Pacific Coast league
clubs on May 15:
1. Vernon.
2. Salt Lake.
3. I.os Angeles.
4. Oakland.
5. Portland.
H. San Francisco.
7. Seattle.
S. Sacramento.
It is not May K yet but close
enough to make comparisons with the
actual standings of some little inter
est. A glance at the table for today
shows San Francisco in the. lead with
Portland in second place and Los
Angeles and Salt Lake somewhat fur
ther down the list than ye wise dope
ster had foreseen.
Sraln Up Five Places.
San Francisco's great showing is
due in part to the strengthening that
Graham has done since the opening of
the season, but, notwithstanding, the
Seals have been making a grand
showing. Schtck in the. outfield and
Corhan at short have been hitting
like fiends and playing hangup de
fensive bsseball. while Agnew behind
the windpad has surprised everybody
by his backstopping.
Due to the late reporting of two or
three pitchers the Los Angeles club
got off to a wobbly start but Hit
lefcr's club is almost sure to be in
the first division most of the journey
Sacramento and Seattle are down
in the storehouse.
While tho Seattle club has made an
even' poorer showing titan anybody
had suspected, the Hainiers probably
will begin to show stronger when
the new timber arrives. Already the
Rainiers have begun to strengthen
the weak spots that showed against
Portland last week. Klepper has
bought two new outfielders, Honig,
who batted .320 with Baltimore la t
years, and Paul Meloan, who hit .300
for Sioux City last season. Tom Fitz-
simmons, the former Spokane player
who went to Brooklyn and from there
to Jersey City, also has been pur
chased for use in the infield. Fitz
.simmons hit .'Jo 7 lafat year at Jersey
Honig probably will take Cunning
ham's place and Meloan will fight It
out with Kopp and Nixon for a per
rr.anent job, as Harry Wolter is a fix
ture in one of the gardens. Wolter
will be ready to play again this week.

SACRAMENTO. May 11. Timely
hitting in the fifth and sixth innings
gave Sacramento today's game with
Vernon. 4 to 1. Both Schellenback
and Prough were batted hard, but
the latter managed to keep the
Tigers' hits down to an average of
but one each inning.
Compton and Middlelun each made
remarkable catches of long flies at
critical moments when hits would
have meant runs and possibly vic
tor for Vernon. The score:

SEME GOLF CLUB
GETS AID DF STUBS
Bon Stein and Lee Stile Seek
Membership.
LOCAL PLAYERS ANXIOUS
Strength Added to Northerners
Means Waveriy Team Will
Have Hard Sledding.
The Seattle Golf clubmen were
voted ideal hosts by the rearguard of
Waverley's t'0-man 'golfing team
which returned from Seattle last
night. G. M. Standifer piloted one
party back by auto. Although the
Waverley 'Country club clinched the
1919 leg on the W. J. Burns tropfay
by its excellent showing in Seattle
Saturday, the Waverleyltes say that
Seattle is going to be tough to beat
from now on.
Last fall Waverley's 20-man team
beat Seattle 40-8, and held Seattle
down to a 39-27 score Saturday, so the
aggregate gives Waverley 67 points
to Seattle's 47.
Two other matches for this trophy
arc scheduled for lSl'O one in Port
land and the other in Seattle, and it is
these matches as well as other inter
club events about which the Waver
ley players are now concerned. The
concern is genuine, for the locals
found that the two Seattle munici
pal links stars, Bon Stein, city cham
pion, and Lee Stile, his teammate,
have applied for membership and will
be wearing the colors of the Seattle
club within another fortnight. These
two youngsters are stars of high de
gree, capable of shooting in the low
70s almost every time they start.
Seattle Talent Formidable.
With Dixie Fleager, Jack Balllnger,
Bon Stein. Lee Stile, George Tilden,
"Wang" Potter and a few others of
like character to count upon, the Seat
tle club looms up as more formidable
than at any . time in the history of
golf in the Pacific northwest.
Whether or not the two young stars
will compete in the four-man team
competition for the C. H. Davis Jr.
cup at Vancouver in July under the
colors of the Seattle Gclf club is not
known. Stein is captain of the Jef
ferson Park municipal team and may
elect to lead a team for that club in
an effort to retain possession of the
trophy won at the northwest tourney
in Spokane last year. However, the
lads will be available to compete for
Seattle in the four-man competition
for the W. J. Clemson troph: at the
Oregon state tourney June 7-12, and
also in the big annual Punch Bowl
competition scheduled for the fall on
the Waverley links. This is an eight
man team event- Waverley won the
trophy last fall at Seattle, making a
remarkable showing against bogey.
Portland's -municipal links have not
been established sufficiently long to
bring out any big crop of youthful
stars, so it looks as though the Seattle
Golf club is going to take top seat
again as the center of golfing gravity
in this district. Four years ago Port
land ruled the roost. Back in 1916
Russel Smith of Waverley won the
northwest amateur championship:
Rudolph Wilhelm of the Portland Golf
club won the northwest open cham
pionship, and Forest Watson of Wa
verley journeyed over to Seattle" and
copped the Potlatch tourney.
Pendulum May String Bark.
Last year the Jefferson Park mu
nicipal links in Seattle captured all
the northwest honors in sight. Claire
Griswold won the northwest cham
pionship, with another Jefferson Park
lad as runner-up, and the Jefferson
Park four-man team captured the
C. H. Davis Jr. trophy. With two of
this year's sterling quartet. Stein and
Stile, about to take iip the cudgel for
the Seattle Golf club, the pendulum
seems set to swing back to the older
Seattle organization.
Portland's golf strength is not con
centrated. Each of the four clubs has
some strong material. Waverley has
Russel Smith. Dr. O. F. Willing. J. R.
Straight. Andy White, R. L. Macleay
and G. M. Standifer playing top posi
tions. Rudolph Wilhelm. several times
state champion and ex-northwest am
ateur and open champion, is playing
for the Portland Golf club. Millard
Rosenblatt, who astonished CaliTor
uians last week by defeating the Cal
ifornia state champion; Jack Neville
in the Bereford tourney, are members
or the Tualatin Country club, while

Portland Strength Divided.
The competition for the C. H. Davis
Jr. cup at the northwest tourney in
Vancouver July 5-12 will find the
Portland strength divided between the
two local clubs. Chairman Nash of
the Portland Oolf club has announced
that his team will consist of Rudolph
Wilhelm, Lr. O. F. Willing. Roscoe
FawctUt and Ursel Kay. Wilhelm and
Fawcett were members of the team
that won the trophy in 1917. Willing
is a, member of both Waverley and the
Portland club and will compete for
the latter at Vancouver.
This will leave Waverley with Rus
sel Smith and Forest Watson as tho
mainstays, both of them having played
with the Waverley quartet that 'won
Ted Thyr. middleweight wrrl
ttinjr. ehnmnion. who has ac
cepted Sailor Hoffman's chal
lenge. the cup at spokane in 1916. Captain
Davis will have several good players
from whom to choose the other two
players, among them R. L. Macleay,
runner-up in the state tourney last
year, and an old-time north west cham
pion; Andrew White, if he returns to
the city from southern Oregon; J. R.

led the Colonials to a 4-to-0 victory
over the Columbia university nine on
the Vaughn-street grounds yesterday
afternoon. Scott's strikeout mark for
the game was 17, while the prep
school tossers touched him up for
five hits.
Errors on the part of the Colum
bia university team were in a part
responsible for three of the runs
made by Washington.
Sundrrleaf Knot-It Homer.
Siindcrleaf, Washington's shortstop,
whose batting average for the day
was 1000, accounted for the other
tally when he poled one to right field
and circled the bases for a home run.
The ball was hit to Collins, who, in
his attempt to grab it on the'bounee,
knocked it into the right - field
bleachers.
Washington scored its first run in
the initial frame, when Sorsby
reached first on an error and scored
on Sunderleaf's hit. Sorsby scored
again in the third, when he walked,
reached second on Sunderleaf's hit
and scored on the second baseman's
error. Sunderleaf's technical home
run in the eighth gave the Colonials
their third run, while Sorsby tallied
for Washington in the last canto on
a walk, error and passed ball.
Srott Pulls Out of Hole.
Columbia started -what had all the
earmarks of a ninth-inning rally
when Quinn readied first on an er

when he hit Eddie Dwyer with a

Butler will promote the match.
Little is known in Portland about
Hoffman except that he wrestled the
semi-windup to the famous Stecher
Caddock match at Madison Square
Harden in New York last winter. He
has wrestled Katonen and other top
notchers and is no set-up for the
local claimant to the world's middle
weight wrestling tUle. Thye claims
the title by virtue of his win over
Walter Miller in Portlan-i a year or
two ago. Hoffman is visiting rela
tives in The .Dalles and will come to
Portland as soon as he learns that
his challenge has been accepted. Hoff
man says he is willing to wager any
side bet that Butler will cover. Mike
is in California with the Oregon Aggie
track team, so there will be nothing
doing on side bets until he returns.
Thye says he telegraphed him, but
the tolls are so high now that he had
to limit his talk to ascertaining
whether -Mike was willing for him to
take a chance agairst the easterner.
The semi-windup to the Hoffman
Thye match will be another middle
weight contest between Bazanta Singh
of Astoria and George Leshcr, wres
tling instructor at the Portland Y. M.
C. ' A., who is a frappler of well
known ability. Singruhas never ap
peared in Portland and the mat fans
are anxious to look him over. He
has beaten such men as Gus Pappas.
Peter Buzukos and others of that
class. He wrestled the former North
west amateur champion, Chris Uesek,
at Spokane on the 37th.
