Bill Klep per's pride and joy. essayed to beat Lefty Burger, Jim Boldt's left handed beauty, today, and Sunny Jim's entry won in a canter. Wal berg entered the contest in the sec ond inning with the score one-all, and . his coming was the signal for a general uprising on the part of the redskins, who pounded the Bal lard boy for a 12-to-3 beating. As on the previous day. Pee Wee Lane and Brick Eldred led the at tack. Billy's admirers gave him a big hand every time he stepped up to hit, and Pee Wee responded with four singles and a walk. Kldred was the real slugger of the day. two triples, a double, and a single being Brick's helping. Game LonNe an AKhes. George Burger looked more like himself. His fast ball had a hop on it. and while the visitors hit him for 12 hits, most of them were made after two were out. and Lefty didn't have to bear down after the first couple of frames. Today's game was as loose as ashes, the battered Beavers giving their pitchers poor support and playing listlessly. The visitors are running out their hits and pop flies are dropping around' the infield for base hits regularly. . But it's no wonder, considering the misfor tunes of the Portland club this year. It's getting so that when a couple of the Beaver players meet at the breakfast table, one of them re marks: "Lo, Bill; who's managing the club this morning?" Jim to Uurk Land In. Now that Jim Middleton has been appointed manager, maybe Middle ton can put the pepper into the club. Jim says he is going to move to a strange hotel and forget to leave his address, so that any registered mail from Judge Landis can't reach him. Billy Lane scored the first run. as usual, today. Billy got his first hit in the opening frame and scored on Kldred's triple to deep left cen ter. Portland tied it in the second, but in the third Dick Cox and Bra zill did an Alphonse and Gaston with the bases full', and two Seattle runs were scored. The Braves never relinquished their lead.

Oakland touched Crandall for three doubles in the eighth inning of to day's game with Los Angeles and started a swatting spree which netted the visitors five runs in that frame and gave them a 7-to-3 victory. Los Angeles used three pitchers in an effort to stem the Oaks' on slaught. Manager Wade Killefer of the Angels, back in town after hav ing been stalled at Needles en route from the east, found a chance to break into the game in the seeond, when Tony Rego was taken out with an injured finger.

Aug. 17. With the necessary runs on the sacks in the ninth and with the league's leading hitter, Paul Strand, at 'the plate; with Praster wobbling and in the hole it looked dubious for Sacramento here at the Moreing lot today. Then the rookie pitcher steadied, evened up on Strand and finally caused him to pop an easy one to Mollwitz for ihe ultimate putout. Thus the Solons triumphed for a third straight win over the Salt Lake Bees. Score 5 to 4.

HERE are the ' great curve- ball pitchers of a few years ago? Real curvers are few nowadays and far between. The big, sharp-breaking hook of pitchers like Bobby Groom, Tom Seatoii, Vean Gregg and their type, particu larly the "hump-backed curve" what in our kid days we -used to call a "drop," because the batl broke downward are rarities in all leagues In the Coast league there are not more than half a dozen pitchers with a really good curve. Most of them are old-timers. This- is not to say there are not many curve ball pitchers, but few of them have the big, breaking "humper" that is the most effective slant in baseball. , Bill Kenworthy, the- iron duke, and Weiser Deli, the veteran Vernon pitcher, sat in the press coop at the Portland park one day last week watching the pitchers work. A young fellow was pitching who had a zippy, quick-hopping fast ball, but when he tried a hook it broke a scant three inches, and it was a side-arm curve at that. Yet he seemed to get by. Dell looked at Kenworthy and Kenworthy looked .. at Dell. Bis Weiser spoke first: "How do they do " it?" he in quired. "Look at that dinky hook not big enough to fool a blind bat. When I broke in, the old boys would have laughed at such a crip ple. A youn&- fellow had to learn how to throw a real curve to get by then." And Kenworthy replied: "You're dead right, Weiser. Gosh, how I'1 like to bat against that thing he calls a curve. I could straighten that wrinkle all day and if 1 missed once I'd be ashamed for a w.ek.' From that they got to chinning and they agreed that pitchers are not what they used to be not in curving ability, at least. Dell was particularly mournful. at the decline of his favorite "humper." "Look at it as a matter of com mon sense and physics." said he. "A side-arm curve' parallels the plane of the bat, doesn't it? And the batter consequently has not" only the width of his bat, but the whole length of it to hit with. But with a drop he has only the Width of his bat and he must hit squarely to drive it anywhere a little up or down and he pops a fly or rolls a weak grounder. And believe me, it is hard to hit a fast-dropping ball squarely. "I don't know why the kids of today go in so much for dinky side- arm hooks and give the old humper gnat's eyelash, of the exact where he wants it." spot We have never seen a game of lacrosse, but from what " lacrosse fans all say, it must be some game. Lacrosse is the national summer sport of Canada. It is a game for men only, and toujh men at that. No flippers need apply. -There are ten men to a lacrosse team and each of the ten is armed with a long hickory club, at the end of which is a net. The net is used to catch the ball and propel it at amazing speed from player to player, eventually to be shot If the goalkeeper lets it into a goal, much as the puck is goaled in ice hockey. As to the hickory club itself well, it is frequently em ployed to bean, accidentally, of course, an opposing player who gets in the way. Not all the wallops in lacrosse are exactly accidental, however. In front of the goal is a space inclosed in white lines and called the "goal crease." The rules permit the goal keeper to whack an opponent who steps into this "goal crease" just as hard as he likes. 'He may do the whacking with his club, too. Man slaughter laws are waived in th's sport. We are informed that a favorite expression with Canadian lacrosse writers is that So-and-So "took considerable wood." The good sports are supposed to "take wood" occasionally without hitting back, "but that isn't human nature. Conse quently, plenty of police protection is an essential at a game. This he-game will be introduced in Portland Sunday. The two lead ing amateur lacrosse teams of Brit ish Columbia, the Vancouver and Victoria tens, will play, and it will be a regular league game, not just an exhibition. Incidentally, the amateurs are said to play better lacrosse than the professionals, not being hampered by professional ethics, so to speak. The game will start at 2:30 o'clock and the place is the Portland base ball park. Tickets will be 75 cents to the grandstand and 50 cents to the bleachers, and so much inter est has been stirred up in the game, as a matter of curiosity it nothing else, that it looks like a big crowd.

If they devoted half the time to mastering a hook that they do trying to make a ball sail with out getting caught, we would have some real pitchers again." Some of the Coast league pitchers that Dell and Kenworthy agreed to as being real curvers, with big, ex plosive hooks, the humper and all. were Lefty Leverenz of Portland, Myers of Salt Lake, Jim Scott of San Francisco, Kremer of Oakland, Fittery of Salt Lake, Lyons of Los Angeles, Gregg and Jacobs of Se attle and Rube Walberg of Port land. "Walberg has about the best curve for a young fellow that I ever saw." said Kenworthy. "Jiminy crickets, his hook, explodes! It breaks - right off like a piece of string.

Not the Black Sox that charge hasn't been made for an instant but against players who. for some reason or other, have re tired from organized baseball, yet still remain on the so-called "re serve lists" of clubs in organized baseball. Yet note this angle: On the team with which Demaree played a few games, another player was Bobby Roth, for many years a J5ig league outfielder, who recently received his unconditional release from the New Yopk Yankees following an injury. Demaree says that Roth, still ex pecting to have several good years with minor league clubs, before joining the independents personally wrote to Judge Landis, baseball commissioner, stating his inten tions, naming the team he would play with, and asking the judge if that would affect his standing in organized baseball. According to Demaree. who says he saw the judge's letter, Judge Landis replied that Roth would be perfectly safe and that his standing would -not be affected. Yet Demaree plays on the same club, and is declared ineligible on the ground that he played with and against ineligible players. The an swer presumably is that Roth didn't sign later with Portland.

BOSTON LOSES AGAIN, 7-3 GOLFERS TO TRY AG1 ANOTHER CHANCE GIVEN TO QUALIFY ON LINKS. Eastmoreland Club to Hold Tour ney Tomorrow and Sunday for Championship. Members of .the Eastmoreland club will have another chance to qualify in the club championships this Saturday and Sunday. . The qualifying round was set for last Sunday, but, owing to inclement weather and the fact that many members were on vacation, there was a small turnout. So J. King Shanks, chairman of the handicap committee, has decided to give the members two more days in which to qualify. Sixteen will qualify for the championship flight and the other entries will be grouped in the additional flights, with prizes for the winner of each. The club champion will have his name engraved, on the M. L. Kline trophy, which is to be the perpet ual cup for the club championships.

Little Bill" Johnston of San Francisco, advancing to the final round of the Casino singles tennis tournament today, found, himself facing both an opponent and a hoodoo for the final round tomorrow. The opponent will be H. G. Kelleher of New York, a few years out of Harvard, whose high place in this tourney is his greatest success to date. Kelleher's advance was the re sult of good play against players of fair standing and was the result, too, of the collapse of the seeded, scheme in the lower half, due largely to the default of R. Norris Williams II. Kelleher's qualifying match in the semi-final round was with N. W. Niles of Boston, the scores being 7-5, 3-6, 6-3. Kelleher plate concludes it was his place to make the decision on the hit, calls proved himself a fighting opponent. it fair and sends batter back to Three of the foreign players were second. Was, that right? It is true that the umpire at the plate is supposed to call foul or fair hit balls, but having accepted the field umpire's decision that hit was a foul, and let pitcher throw twice more to batter, it certainly was not within the authority of the umpire-ln-chief to reverse the decision at that late date.
