BY ROSCOE FAWCETT.
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.
The score:

GOLFERS TO SELECT
1921 TOURNEY CITY
Portland May Be Asked
Entertain Meet.
to
BID PUT IN BY TACOMA
Course of Washington Club Not Be
lieved In Condition to Play
Championship Matches.
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.

Robert Bone defeated Mike Gardner
in the semi-finals of the Vancouver

Portland's Best Twirler.
Jack Bromley of the Salt Lake team
is turning out to be the pitching
sensation of the Pacific Coast league.
After one good year with Sacramento,
Bromley fell down and was released.
Then San Francisco gave him a trial
but he failed to display the hoped-for
class.
When the Seals finally let him go.
Salt Lake picked him up and now
Bill Rodgers and Charley Graham are
kicking themselves for not hanging
on to him. Bromley Is leading the
league twirlers with 11 games won
i)four lost for a percentage of .733,
Vlnough he has not participated In as
many games this season as Wheeier
Dell of the Vernon club, whose string
shows 19 victories and 7 defeats for a
percentage of .731.
"Suds" Sutherland continues to lead
the Portland club twirlers. The

MISS FORDING IS WINNER
Scott and Klnsey, Both Champs,
Reach Semi-Finals of Ta
coma Tourney.
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. Tacoma's champ, and
recent winner of the International
singles at Spokane, is also in the
semi-finals and setting a hot pace
for the other players. He defeated
Peterson of this .city today, 6-4, 7-5.
One of the best matches of the tour
nament is expected tomorrow, when
Scott meets Weinstein for the right
to go into the finals. Both boys
played on the same tennis team last
year.
MIsa Fording "Successful.
Miss Livingston, Seattle, vs. Mrs.
Cushing, California: Miss McDonald,
Seattle, vs. Miss Fording, Portland.
That . is what the programme will
read when the players take the courts
at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon in

stars were eli-.ninated in the women's
play today. Mls Fording defeated
Dorothy Alexander, Tacoma, 6-i. 6-1,
while Miss McDonald of Seattle de

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.

No greater evidence of public Interest
In tennis la needed than the official mu-
i H.n.rt f Cleveland on the number
cf permits Issued to use the courts in eight
ot the city pudiic puriv -
"4 0o4 permits have been Issued and dur
ing the month of July 23,924 people actu

use of permits, it may u -
the number ot players using the public
courts to be more than J21.000.

Golf Is said to be the game that has
attracted more players than any other
sport but it looks as though the tennis
courts are pushing the golf links enthu
siasts to their very limit. The report
from Cleveland is only one city In this
country and the report only covers mu
nicipal courts and does not take In those
people playing on private and club courts.
The same almost super-growth of the
game la also evident all over this Pacific
coast. More people are playing tennis
than ever before and In all coast cities
there are not enough courts to accommo
date the people who want to play.

Success usually makes most of us change
our plans or our viewpoint. Several
months afro Harry Wills, the negro pugil
ist, stated that he would never challenge
Dempsey for a fight. Not that the negro
was averse to boxing Dempsey. but he
distinctly stated that he did not believe
the public at that time wanted a negr.
to fight for the world title. Wills stated
that Johnson had done more to bring dis
grace on the colored race than any 10H
colored men could do and while he per
sonalty -would not do anything to bring
any disgrace on his race, he thought it
lHst to keep away from Dempsey. He
stated that he would fight Dempsey if the
latter challenged him. Now, however, since
his fight with Fulton Wills ia clamoring
for a match with Dempsey.
