After the two teams and 1000 spec tators had stood at attention for five minutes in respect to the memory of the late Bay Chapman, Cleveland's great shortstop, the Oakland club proceeded to larrup Portland's Pacific coast athletes yesterday in a neigh borhood pentathlon that ended 11 to 2 in Oakland's favor. As a result of the defeat Portland dropped to sixth position. The visitors knocked "Suds" Suth erland out of the box in less than an inning after scoring; five runs one a home run over the left field fence by Hack Miller, chasing two ahead of htm. Glazier also was easy for the Commuters, yielding 12 of the Oaks' 17 safe swats. "Lefty" Alten, a big youngster ob tained from Detroit, pitched against the Beavers and proved quite effect ive. Alten wild-pitched Cox home with a score for the Beavers in the second Inning, and four hits in the elxth added another run, but outside of those two momentary lapses the big portsider pitched faultlessly. Fbui Mop on I in pi re Rankin. There was no room for argument as to the pitching honors. Some of the hot-weather fans, however, en gaged Umpire Ed Rankin in an ar gumentative steeplechase. The fans first hopped Ed for calling Lane safe ut second base on an easy double play from Sigiin to Spranger to Ross. Ed's decision looKed good to the press stand, for Spranger overran second before getting Siglin's toss. 'Anyway, the "ump" fired a few verbal shots back at the bleacherites and helped to enliven a rather torrid aft ernoon. The argument ended like a dispute over who stole the milk off the dumb waiter nobody got anywhere. Dennle Wilie and Brubaker proved the hitting stars of the afternoon with four swats apiece. Wilie led off the first inning with a thump to right; Brubaker followed suit. Cooper sacrificed them along, and Miller ecored both runners with his homer into the left field bleachers. Suth erland cracked Knight on the arm; Lane doubled to right and Guisto scored both with a double to left field. Five Scored on Sutherland. Five runs scored before Suther land got thoroughly warmed to his task. Glazier relieved him after Guisto's two-bagger. The Oaks scored two more In the third on hits by Guisto, Alten and Wilie, three more in the eighth and one in the ninth. Knight scored two in the eighth after Glazier had de' liberately walked Miller and filled the bases. Maisel hurt his leg running to sec ond in mid-game and retired in favor of Manush in the last inning. Two games will be played this afternoon, commencing at 1:30 o'clock.

BILLY FLOORED ONCE Crowd Gets Thrill In Sixth, hut Boxer Gets Up Without Taking Count and Continues. BY DICK SHARP. Billy Mascott. veteran Portland bantamweight and claimant of the Pacific coast title, met the toughest proposition that he has tackled since he battled Georgie Thompson here some time ago when he stepped into the ring with Babe ' Herman, young bacramento bantam, at Vancouver Barracks last night, referee Jack Day calling the match a draw at the end of ten rounds of milling. Herman was willing to fight any way that Billy wanted to and for once in his career the clever little Portland boxer met a man at his own weight who gave him a real argu ment. Referee Day's decision did not meet with the approval of all as was the case in every one of the three other excellent fights on the bill, which was etaged by the Vancouver Elks lodge. Fans Get Thrill In Sixth. Herman gave the crowd a thrill in the sixth canto when he caught Mas cott with a short right uppercut to the solar plexus that put him down on his haunches. Mascott got up without taking the count and kept fighting, but he had tasted the floor, something that has not been a fre quent occurence in Billy s life. The boys started off at a slow pace and it took some riding to make them mix. Mascott began well, boxing cautiously and looking in great shape, He appeared the picture of condition and went after his younger adver sary in a business-like manner. Along about the fourth round, Herman be gan to feel at home and began dig ging into Mascott's bay window and found a resting place for his punches As the bouts progressed the boys stepped at a livelier pace, and the ninth found them fighting for the verdict. . Herman bothered Mascott throughout and is the best-looking prospect at his weight that has fought hero in many a moon. Anderson Wins Decision. Freddie Anderson, Vancouver's own lightweight, won an eight-round de cision over Harold Jones of Tacoma in the semi-windup. Day came the nearest being right in this battle, but would not have made more than five enemies if he had called it a draw. Anderson won hands down in the first few rounds, but as the bouts wore along found that his punches could not -slow Jones up, and towards the end began to-tire from his efforts. However, Freddie landed the oftenest ana his early lead evidently influ enced the referee. The crowd was with Anderson and Freddie did put up a good fight. It took six rounds for the Tacoma lad to find Anderson for any solid wallop. Harry Casey. Dan Salt's fighting Seattle welterweight, won the de cision at the end of eight rounds of battling with Willie St. Clair of Sac- ear Sued "feur jMCb 9dfohuxa fc (tee 2&aJ Nt P (iuaW CUtCeA Vwe CfJ 0 iladt a Cuqasvdis S&tfwl Itu 9 ifVouvvt 3r vuoaj acyvxz GamdL zfcu$zr.

St. Claire outboxed Casey to the finish and landed some telling punches t times, but the Seattle cave man was there with the lusty mitts and came within an ace of stowing the negro mixer away in the final canto. St. Claire proved himself to be a won derful boxer and if he gets in a little better condition should not have any trouble with the boys at his weight around here. Frankie Crites of Xewberg, tipping the beam at around 133 pounds, won a six-round decision over Carl Martin of Portland in the first bout on the card. The fight was a hard one from start to finish and many thought Martin was entitled to a draw. He knocked Crites down in the second round. A fair-sized crowd was on hand to attend the fights, which were run off in the open air in the Barracks ball park, and was treated to four good scraps, staged in good style.

BY DICK SHARP. Among those in the city yesterday was Chet Wclntyre or Tacoma who was visitor with Harold Jones, the Tacoma lightweight who fought Freddie Ander son in Vancouver laat night. The last time that the ex-Seattle Athletic club boxing instructor was in Portland he had his heavyweight. Tiny Herman, In tow. The latter took on Frank Farmer at the time. . Willie Jackson. New Tork lightweight aspirant lor title nonors. has been making so much money this season that he has decided on a vacation. He made more than SoO.OOO for the past six months and expects to more than double that amount in the same coming period. In his last battle with Lew Tendler at Philadelphia, Jackson received $12,000 as his end. He did not make the showing expected of him and has come to the conclusion, that a good rest is necessary. "Chuck" "Wiggins, who had a number of fights on this coast and made a very favorable impression, baa been going in good style back east, so good that many experts are now considering him as logical opponent for Jack Dempsey. One eastern writer waxes enthusiastic abou Wiggins along these lines "Wiggins Is the fastest thing ever seen on two fee wielding a pair of boxing gloves and 1 there Is a man In America today who can outpoint him. the boxing fans would like to have some Information as to hi; whereabouts. A movement is on foot In the east t decide the world's colored heavyweigh championship. The proposed fight I Harry vv ills vs. Jack Johnson. If th former champion can get out of th Jolie,t prison he will be only too willln to take on the guy who plastered th plasterer Fred Fulton. It is quite pos sible, however, that the fans will not be pestered with such a match until th expiration of a year when Johnson will have served his time. Alex Trambitas. Portlsnd welterweight will leave for Seattle this afternoon finish his training licks for his match with Johnny McCarthy next Wednesday night. The winner will probably meet Franki Jones the following week in the Puget Sound city. BEES TROUBLE BREWING McCarthy staxd ox rumxek is blamed.

Such was the intimation from William H. Lane, president, ami jacK Cook, busi ness manager of the Bees, who were turned down flat by the league ex ecutive today after a two-hour con ference. Lane took the stand that the presi dent of the league was not endowed with the authority to suspend a ba.ll- plf.yer for all time to come and that such action must be taken by the board of directors. Cook was asked if the Salt Lake club would appeal to th- board of directors on this point. It has not been decided," he said, "whether we will take the mat ter further. There has for a long time been a well-defined feeling in Salt Lake that the coast league is anxious to drop our city. The fans are liable to think that this refusal to deal more leniently with Rumler is a part of a plot to force us to break oft relations. Mind you, I do not say that such is the case, but in view of the feeling of Salt Lake people who suspect Rumler is inno cent, no one can tell what will happen."
