There is an old saying In baseball
that a ball player is as old as his
legs. Butler' is nimble on his feet
and has never had trouble with his
legs, which is the first sign that a
player Is going back. Perhaps this is
due to the fact that he has not played
continuously since 1912, and also to
the fact that he always has taken the
best of care of himself. His arm is
good, too, and there is nothing the
matter with his batting eye.
However, McCredie signed Butler

The Portland high school base
ball season will open on Wednesday
of next week with James John cross
ing bats with Benson Tech In the
IX initial contest, according to the offi
cial league schedule given out yes-
teraay Dy x. T. Uavis, principal ot
Lincoln high school, and president of
the Portland High School Athletic
association.
Due to the fact that the tentative
schedule drawn by the coaches and
submitted to the directors of the
league at their last meeting did not
meet with the approval of the direct
ors, Hugh J. Boyd, principal of Wash
ington, high and secretary of the as
sociation, was instructed to plan an
other schedule. This schedule, which
did not name the teams but was a
skeleton affair drawn up by numbers
only, was turned over to Pres'dent
Davis and he assigned a number to
each school. The draw was made the
same as if all the schools had been
represented personally.
New Schedule Better.
The new schedule appears to work
out nicely and does not work a hard
ship on any of the teams, while the
one planned by the coaches would
have compelled some teams to crowd
their games into a short space of

The schedule which calls for 21 games
will close on May 24 with the final
