Portland moved to within cal- loused eyelash of the first division yesterday by walloping Los Angeles, 2-1, in a brilliant pitching duel be tween Harold Brooks. incog., and Curly Brown, a. southpaw extraordi nary. It was the fastest game on record In Portland for the year and the 1500 fans in the grandstand were accorded a rare treat. Brooks held the Angels to two hits in the nine innings and until the seventh the fans had visions of a no hit, no-run engagement. Sam Craw ford spoiled the afternoon by knock ing a single over -second base in the seventh. Brooks dropped Blue's throw covering first base a moment later on Bassler's slam and Karl Crandall's double, following, scored the lone Angelic registration. Brooks) la an Ornament. Brooks pitched faultlessly. The young college or back lot pitcher looks like the best piece of parlor furniture we have seen hereabouts since the weeji board moved in on us several months ago. Curly Brown pitched good ball, but Curly usually works with an anchor around his neck. Somehow the Angels don't think it necessary to get any runs for Curly. Once upon a time, before Tommy Lipton took his expensive ocean habits back to Kngland, Brown went 4S innings without a helping score behind him. Both Tnlly in Seventh. Portland scored the first run in the third inning. With two out, Slglin singled over second and Wlsterzil scored him with a scream ing two bagger to deep left center. The Angels tied the score in the seventh, but the Beavers came back with the winning registration in the latter portion of the seventh. Dick Cox led off with a double to left. Tobln sacrificed him to third and Dickie scampered home after Carl Spranger's sacrifice fly dropped into Kube Ellis' horny hands in left field. Rube made a strenuous effort to head Cox off at the plate, but the Reuben might just as well have hoped lor the Angels to assist in the family washing. Cox dug his spikes into the home plate almost before Rube finished winding up, but not 'before a couple of charming sirens with roll-top socks were backed up against the press box requesting that we give Carl Spranger a little boost. Spranger Explains Play. We do so cheerfully. Carl's long fly won the game. Queried after ward, the gingery little shortstop explained the blow as follows: "Brown pitched the ball medium high and over the middle of the plate. I debated for a few moments whether to hit it over the rightfield fence or to left field. Recollecting that Kllis is getting aged and decrepit I smacked the ball to deep left field. Cox scored and the fans showered a lot of Sir Conan Doyle money at me. That is all there is to it." The game consumed only one hour and IB minutes of the humid after noon. Brown always works fast and the same for Spranger. Bring on the embossed blackjack.

C. H. Davis, Jr., captain of the Waverley Country club golf teams, leaves tonight for Victoria, B. C. to confer with brother committeemen of the Pacific Northwest Golf association relative to the place of holding the 1921 championships. "Dixie" Flaeger of Seattle, and A. V. Macan of Vic toria, are the other two on the com mittee. While in Portland last week in the Interclub tournament between Waver ley and Tacoma, G. H. Raleigh of the Tacoma Country and Golf club, served notice that Tacoma was willing to undertake the job of entertaining the northwest tourney next year". Portland May Be Choice. , If the Tacoma club gives tangible evidence of its ability and willingness to be hosts the tourney may be awarded to Tacoma for Tacoma has not had the tourney since 1915. However, It is not believed that the Tacoma course is in condition to stage the 1921 championships and the chances are that the Waverley Coun try club of Portland will be asked to stage the big golfing event next year. "If the association wants Waverley to handle the tourney I am sure we shall be glad to do it," said Mr. Davis yesterday. "Of course, Waverley is not campaigning for the tournament for it costs considerable money and entails a great amount of hard work." John Dreher, secretary of the Northwest association, will join Mr. Davis at Seattle and accompany him to Victoria. While in the north Mr. Davis will endeavor to stir up sufficient in terest to insure a bid for the appear ance of Vardon and Ray in the Paci fic northwest this fall. . Waverley is willing to raise $400 to pay the British champions' expenses here In an exhibition match. Deals are under way whereby both the Olympic club. San Francisco, and the San Francisco Golf and Country club may own their links next year. The Spring Valley water company wants $2675 an acre for the property now leased by the latter organiza tion, which would mean an invest ment of 400,000. The Olympic club has a project for building another lS-hole course to, take care of the membership. After being lost, strayed or stolen for a fortnight, Russel Smith's kit of golf tools arrived by express from Vancouver, B. C, a day or two ago. The former northwest champion mis placed the clubs after the recent northwest tourney in the British Columbia metropolis. m Robert Bone defeated Mike Gardner in the semi-finals of the Vancouver Golf and Country club's champion ship, 6 up and 5, and will meet J. A. Yellowlees in the finals this week end. HARNESS RAGES ON CARD TWO EVENTS TO BE DAILY FEA TURE OF SPEEDWAY. Classy Racing Stock of Oregon Promised for Wild West Show August 11 to 15.

TACOMA. Wash., Aug. 5. (Special.) The three sister states of the Pacific slope, Washington. California and Or egon, were represented in the battles waged In the men's singles in the northwest tennis championships staged upon the courts of the Tacoma Lawn Tennis club today. Two were des tined to survive. They were Wash ington and California. ' Phil Neer .of Portland, Or., winner of the 1919 Pacific northwest tourna ment and present holder of the famous Thome trophy, went down to deteat before Irving Weinstein of ihe Uni versity of California after putting up one of the gamest fights ever wit nessed on local courts. Weinstein played third man on the University of California freshman net team last year, while Neer was cap tain of the Stanford varsity quintet. It was a dramatic battle with Wein stein playing the role of the victor. Match Goes Three Seta. The match was a torrid three set affair. Every set went to deuce games. Weinstein won the first round to 6. Neer, however, came back strong in the second set and led most of the way, finally emerging on top 7-E. The third and deciding tilt was real struggle. It see-sawed back and forth with Weinstein the ulti mate winner, 11-9. Neer led 6 games to 5 and S games to 6. Once he was withi 2 points of the match. It seemed Impossible that he could lose out. But the fates had decreed other wise, and Weinstein with his bulldog tenacity and endurance was not to be denied. 1 Howard Klnsey, the champion of southern California, also went into che semi-finals today in the mens singles by virtue of two victories. He defeated Pierre Denton of Tacoma, and R. Bruce Hesketh, captain of the Lincoln high school tennis team of Seattle. Wallace Scott.

BANCROFT GIANTS' 5IAINSTAY Former Portland Player Is Whole ' Show, Says Captain May. That Dave Eancroft, former Beaver short stop, is the whole show with the New Cork Giants and is largely responsible for the spurt which that team is making at present is the In formation conveyed in a letter from Waiter May, formerly assistant city editor of The Oregonian and at pres ent holding a captain's commission in the army, being assigned to special duty with the public health bureau at New York. May states that Bancroft is about the only thing the Giants have to make a fuss about unless it is Kelley. the new first baseman and Frlsch who is at third. According to May, Bancroft really is of the trim Yankee class and looks out of place, with the Giants. The Yankees are by far the prettiest playing team in both leagues today, he says.
