GRAYSON. I .OS ANGELES, Cal., May 14. (Spe cial.) Although the trusty bats of "Biff" Schaller. Koehler, Cox and Wlsterzil drove in the runs which grave Portland the rubber frame of the series. It was the marvelous and sen sational fielding; of Wescott King don that pulled Jones out of the fire on two occasions. Walt McCredie's men won. 7 to 4. Vic Aldridge being charged with the Angels' rout. Frank Juney pitched the closing round for Mack's combination, the boss Beaver pulling Jones who wob bled fearfully in the eighth. Kingdon's two plays today will live long in the memory of every one of the 3000 fans at the game. In the third Inning, he dashed back of second base fell on his stomach and grabbed Niehoffa hard hit ball with his bare hand and while lying in this position twisted around suf ficiently to toss out Rube Ellis, who was running for the keystone. Siglin flashed the ball to Blue, com pleting one of the fastest and most remarkable double plays ever seen in Los Angeles. Another masterful bit of fielding on the part of Kingdon in the eighth probably saved the ball game. With Ellis on first Aldridge bit one to the left of Wistcrzll. Klncrdon Urabu Off Hit. It was labeled a sure enough base hit, but Kingdon went out into short lewt field, speared the ball with his meat hand again arid whirled around to throw Ellis out at second, thus the ancient rube was twice the victim of this natural-born ball hawk. Jones had allowed only three hits up to this time, but blew up badly andi hits by Killefer, McAuley, Cran dall and Griggs, a wild throw by Siglin and bases on balls to Craw ford and Bassler followed chasing four runs over the plate. For Port land. Schaller homed in the second. Bassler's wild heave permitted Blue to score in the eighth and with Schaller and Siglin on third and sec ond respectively. Cox singled, driving them both across the Rhine. Wlaterzll Register Homer. Wisterzll's circuit wallop, with Kingdon on base in the ninth, ac counted for Portland's last two mark ers. Del Baker is out for a week- at least. He ascertained that he frac tured two ribs by bumping into Agnew of the Seals in Portland.

Katz trophy, will get under way. Walter A. Goss, chairman of tennis at Multnomah club, and his assistants, have completed every arrangement for the staging of the affair and with the completion of the drawings last night everything is set for the start this afternoon. Forty-five of the best known rac quet wielders in -the city have en tered the race. This is the biggest un.-uiiciiea entry list that has ever participated in the annual spring handicap play. The old handicap system was used, with all of the players rated according to their judged or known ability based on their previous showings on the clay courts. t Catlin Wolfard is weighted down with the biggest owe handicap with owe 40. This means that the Oregon state champion will have to play his usual brilliant game throughout to overcome this handicap and place in tne finais.

DICKERINGS LAST 3 YEARS Leonard, Lightweight Tltleholder, Also Slated to Appear Here During Same Month. BY DICK SHARP. Pete Herman, bantamweight cham pion of the world, will box in Port land June 10. meeting the best ban tamweight on the Pacific coast. Matchmaker Bobby Evans of the Portland boxing commission an nounced yesterday that he had come to terms with Herman to battle in Portland on the date set. Evans has been dickering with Herman for three years, which may sound strange. Back in the old six-round days, when Evans was promoting boxing shows on his own hook, he always aspired to bring Herman here for a championship bout, but the cham pion was always there with a big money demand. It has only been recently proved that Portland could draw as much to a real fistic en counter ac? many of the largest cities in the country. This opened the gates for the importation of men of near-champion or championship tim ber. When Evans came to terms with Herman yesterday it marked a unique record, making the second champion of the world that he has signed to box In Portland in June, Benny Leon ard, lightweight champion of the world, being the other title-holder signed to box under the auspices of the Portland boxing commission. Herman's, as well as Leonard's op ponent is in the hazy stage. While it has been planned to pit one of the best of the eastern lightweights against Leonard. Evans is figuring on using the best at the bantam limit on the coast against Herman. He has it doped that there are sev eral bantamweights on the Pacific coast who have a fighter's chance with Herman, while, on the other hand, there are few if any Pacific AT POKER THINKS ABOUT.

Men What I LOST 1 ClllPi! coast bred boys who might really figure with Leonard. Some bantams who will be consid ered for the match with Herman are Bud Ridley, Benny McCoy. Young Farrell. Jimmy Brenton and Billy Mascott. But for his tactics leading up to his bout with Sammy Gordon at Milwaukie the other night Mascott might have landed the mside track on the match. However, he is can didly in bad with the matchmakers over his attempt to raise the ante after agreeing to go for a set turn. Without a doubt he is one or tne best boys at his weight on the coast, and a great little ring general, but there are others of class who de mand a hearing before anyone is signed to meet the champion June 10. With the Milwaukio boxing com mission slated to hold a show on one of the days during the Shriners' convention, it meane that the Port land boxing followers are in for the greatest -month of their lives as far boxing is concerned. W ith the appearance of two world's champions assured and a possible tnira, the outlook is enough to keep any dyed-in-the-wool fan awake nights trying to figure out how to save his money so that he can grab a ringside at the months attractions. Johhny Kilbane, the gray-haired patriarch of the feathers, is billed to appear in one of the four star rackets in Shibe park. Philadelphia, on May 24. Harry ("Kid") Brown, the high school graduate of the fast burg, will be his opponent. Lew Tendler and Eddie Fitzsinimons will southpaw 'em in another eight- rounder; Ralph Brady and Joe Tip litz will mingle in a third set-to. and Kid Williams, deposed bantam king, will inaugurate a comeback cam paign with Patty Johnson as his op ponent. . Kilbane also has arguments on tap with Frankie Fleming, the Canadian champion, on May 26, in Toronto, and with Young ("Andy") t'haney in Philadelphia on June 2. Matches with Pete Herman, the bantam cham pion, and Danny Frush, the Britisher, are also pending for consummation. Artie Root, the Clevelander, will be Kilbane's opponent in the ball park of the Forest City on July 5. Hugh Walker, the willing Kansas City- heavyweight is back from a fly ing trip to his home town, joining his manager, Joe Thomas, here again yesterday. Walker returned to Kan sas City several weeks ago to close up some business affairs. The cuts which he received In his bout with Frank Farmer have kept him out of the ring for two months but have at last sufficiently healed for him to resume training. Walker made a great showing in his ten-round bout against Willie Meehan. but fell a vic tim to Frank Farmer. His mill with the Tacoma boxer had. only gone a round or so when he received a deep gash in the middle of the forehead. He fought the remainder of the bout practically blinded by the flow ,of blood and put up one of the gamest exhibitions ev.er witnessed here. Walker will get a chance to redeem himself against Farmer in a ten round bout on the next card of the Milwaukie boxing commission, which is scheduled to be held May 26.

RIDLEY IS AFTER WINNER CHALLEXGEKS BOXING RFC OKI) DECLARED I-MQIE. Frankie Murphy Likes Portland and May Be Used by -Matchmaker Kendall in Next Show. A worthy challenger has already stepped forth and thrown the gaunt let to the winner of the Joe Gorman Young Brown ten-round battle in the main event of the Portland Boxing commission's card at the Armory next Thursday night. It is none other than Bud Ridley, Fred v insor s "little Dempsey." Ridley is perhaps the most talked of fighter today on the Pacific coast outside of Young Brown. Brown is the only topnotch featherweight in California that Winsor has not let Ridley fight. Bud has battled .Jimmy Dundee twice, Harry Peslinger twice, Battling Vierra. Georgie Lee. Frankie Garcia, Al Walker and all of the rest of the Golden state's little mitt'men with the exception of Brown. Ridley makes 11$ pounds or takes them on up to 133. Ho has the most remark able fistic record of any boxer in the world today in that he has actually fought an average of six fights a week within the past month. This is a feat that has seldom if ever been accomplished by a boxer at any weight. Heavyweights sometimes g. two or three times a week in the east, and ligb.tweigh.ts turn the same trick, but six times a week is dif ferent. Winsor has been making one night stands with his boxer hopping from Sacramento to Oakland to San Francisco to Fresno back to San Francisco and then out in the sticks again. Ridley is willing to fight Joe Gor- man. winner take all. at catch weights or make US pounds for Billy Mascott and not take a cent unless he knocks the latter out in ten rounds. Matchmaker Bobby Evans will tuck Winsor's proposition away until the Gorman-Brown meiaa 13 over. Joe Gorman is going through tha ricidest training routine since his first bout in I'ortland for his ten round scrap with Brown.. If Joe can trim the perpetual motion battler from Los Angeles he can write his own ticket in California and lay a legitimate claim to the featherweight championship of the Pacific coast. Brown and Gorman are two mixcra who hit consistently and what a ecs rion the fans are looking for next Tuesday night! a The remainder of the card has been completed by Matchmaker Evans. Two eicht-round contests and two four-round bouts will complete tho bill. Tete Mitchie and Fuggy Morton will tangle in one of the eight-round sashayes while- Frankie Monroe of San Francisco and Weldon Wing will meet in the other eight-round attrac tion. Neal Zimmerman and Ted Hoke) will box four rounds while Jimmv Moscow and Johnny Fugate will box tne lour-round curtain raiser. J TO 4 VICTORIA IS DEFEATED BY SEVEVTH-IXMNG RALLY.
