SAX FRANCISCO. Aug. 6. Eighteen
Inning of sensational baseball without a
player crossing the plate thla waa tlia
sum total of the game between the Port
landers and the Oakland aggregation at
Recreation Park today.
Darkness1 ended the struggle and the
great crowd went a ay to late dinners
after seeing the greatest no-run game
ever played on the Onaat. Only one
game in baseball history surpasses the
session of today. That was a tussle be
1 ween Fargo and Grand Forks on July
1. Ml. when the game was called In
the 5th inning without a mark In the
run column.
Willis pitched the entire game for Oak
land and allowed 1! hits Bolce officiated
in the first eight Innings for Portland,
and Krapp finished the game, each
pitcher allowing four hits. Hoping to win
the game for his team in the ninth In
ning, with three men on bases, and two
out. McCredie went In to bat for Bolce.
He waa out on an easy grounder.
(.ante Mut SevlaouIar.
It wasn't altogether because of the
extra innings that the game was spec
tacular, but because of the sensational
fielding and the way the two teams
tightened up when there were nn on the
base. Thcugh there was no world's
record broken, the game ie a Coast 1-eague
record and has equalled the major, a
couple of American league teams having
clashed last year In a swasion that lasted
for a similar spare of time without re
runs In the scoiina; line. Certainly there
was never anything like It in the history
of the Wesaern game.
That St-lnninc strugale In which Henley
and Big Jim Wiggs. of Oakland, partici
pated across the bay at Prrrman's park
was a marvel, but there were runs in
that game, and no scoreless affair, as wa
the even contest of today.
Ralph Willis took the pitrhing honors
for the Oaks. The former Sn Francisco
pitcher lamed the entire IS Innings, and
althouich there were stages in which he
was apparently tiring, he tratghtened up
remarkably toward the close. For the
Beavers, Bolce made his debut and after
he was relieved In the ninth Inning, to
give McCredie a chance to bat for him
at a critical moment. Krapps finl9hed out
the game In grand style.
The Port lander fanned ten of the Commuter-
and held them to four hits. He
rarely gave Wolverton's men a chance
and when the Oak did have men on
the bases, the support that was accorded
Krapp waa well nigh perfect.
All Credit Not to Pitchers.
However, not all the credit Is due
the pln-her. Far from It. It was the
nettling that helped the twirler In their
game withna. scores. Time and again
the opposing base runners were thrown
out at the plate on dee-nerate attempts
to score and the six double plays that are
recorded In the score sheet give the best
Idea of the fast work of the Infield.
Individually, str. the Inneldera were
at their beet. Both Wares and Olson at
short figured in seneattonal stunts and
the rival third Hackers. WoTverton and
Tommy Sheehan. were but little- behind
them. In the outfield, the men who
erf holding down the garden positions
"rvd with one another In accurate throws
toth plats that stopped the gathering
In run
Tra. crowd changed frequently toward
the ttiose. There were those who. per
haps.. forced by dinner engagements,
reluct u tly had to leave the standi- and
wend tVr way home, wondering all the
time w at was happening on the
diamond -hey had left behind them.
There ware other. however. hear
ing of t a struggle that was taking
place, who tnok the seats of the nn
lappy fane who had left, and when
I'mplre lc-t;revy signalled for silence
and Informe ! i the rpectators that the

ginning Thursday.
FALL PLAY OPENS SEPT. 3
Annual Open Handicap Promises to
Bring Oat Many Xew Men and
Women Wlckersham or Gor
rlll May Go South.
BT RALPH H. MITCHELL.
Portland tennis folk, player and enthu
siast alike, are on the verge of a busy
month, opening thl week on Thursday,
' 1
'
when the annual Junior tennis tourna
ment of the Irvington Tennis Club mem
bers will play for the Edward Cookins
ham cup. now held by young Stuart Free
man. All entries must reach P. H. V. An
drews on or before Wednesday. Mr. An
drews can be found In the Hamilton
building or Irvington Tennis Club. The
age limit Is under 19.
As the Irvington Club has made a spe
cial Inducement for the development of
the younger piayers by recently complet
ing two new courts, devoted exclusively
to the Juniors, unusual Interest has been
manifested this year in the coming tour
nament, which previously has been held
In conjunction witlt the club's annual
Fall tournament. This year, however. It
was decided to hold the tourney earlier
owing to the fact that many of the boys
who would enter leave soon for schools
In the East.
As arrangements have been made for
a challenge round to be played off on
Saturday, the tournament will give all
the younger set an opportunity to show
their mettle as well as give the runner
up a show against Freeman, who now
holds the Cookingham trophy.
Fall Tourney Opens Sept. 3.
The Irvington club's annual Fall tour
nament, open handicap, will open on Sat
urday. September 3. Thla date was de
cided upon yesterday by the committee
in charge tn order to get in Monday,
Labor day. September 5, for a full day's
play, aa well as, making a day convenient
for the gallery which Is annually Inter
ested In the club's tournament. Play
will be held in Ave events, men's singles
and doubles, women's singles, doubles
and mixed doubles, entries for which
events will be 31. as In the recent -state
tournament.
The play for the club championship,
which will be held at the same time, is
limited to club members and is a scratch
.affair. The play In men's singles will be
for the C. H. Prescott permanent trophy,
now held by Brandt Wlckersham, club
and city champion. In the women's sin
gles the play will be for the directors'
cup, now held by Miss Stella Fording.
Entries for the tournament must be
sent to F. H. V. Andrews, Hamilton
building, or Irvington Club, and must
reach him before P. M. on Thursday,
September 1. The committee has de
cided that there will be no consolation
play In this tournament, and all matches
will be played on schedule.
Pacific States Play Worries.
Who will be the lucky men to repre
sent the Pacific Northwest territory In
the Pacific States championship play,
which opens at Del Monte. Cal.. Sep
tember 6. Is the question now bothering
the eight clubs composipg the Interna
tional Tennis Association. It Is most
probable that Bernard Schwengers, Pa
cific international and "British Columbia
champion, will be one of the men. That
Portland will be represented Is a foregone
conclusion, but alio will be the lucky
man is yet to be made known.
President F. H. V. Andrews, of the
International Association, has communi
cated with all of the clubs represented
in the association and asked for sugges
tions as to who would be the best men
and the most likely candidates to win
honors. As yet no word has been heard,
but at present it seems the honor lies
between Tyler, of Spokane: Wlckersham
and Gorrlll, of Portland, though Fits, of
Seattle, Is a lively candidate. Should
Tyler and Fits be counted out or be un
able to go south. It Is probable that Port
land may see some great tennis should
Wlckersham and Gorrill clash on . the
local courts to decide which should go
south with Schwengers. Both men are
playing a fast game now and either
would make a capable representative of
the Pacific Northwest.
With the Tacoma and Everett tourna
ments now out of the way.- It is prob
able that one of the eight clubs of the
International Association will soon Issue
a challenge to the Irvington Club for
the Starr-Reynolds cup recently offered
for Inter-club contests. When the cup
was put up Everett unofficially expressed
a desire to get first chance. However,
' , Tprs i
. r , I
it is understood Multnomah may come
out with a cnaiienge to me inms
Club, before or after the Invitation tour
nament at the Breakers, which opens
August 15.
The Pacific Northwest tournament,
which closed yesterday, revealed many
happy surprises for Portland. Probably
Miss Less I e Lead better ven surprised
herself, but It is positively known she
surprised many of her friends, all well
wishers, here by the showing she made
at Tacoma. In fac Miss Leadbetter has
a faculty of playing a far superior game
In a tournament .to what she displays In
everyday play, though she tries hard at
all times. She haa a great future if she
keeps at the game. Mrs. Foullhoux and
Miss Susan Clark, who also represented
Portland at the Tacoma tourney, dis
played some fast play and made It inter
esting for several Tacoma and other
Washington woman wielders of the rac
quet. Westerners Spring: Surprises.
Probably no tennis play last week was
of more National Interest than that
which took place at Chicago when Bundy
and Hendricks, the California team; de
feated the Western champions. Waidner
and Gardner, for the honor of meeting
the National champions In doubles. Alex
ander and Hackett. on the Newport. R. I.,
courts for the Rational honors, play for
which will opA one week from tomor
row, August 15.
Speaking of National championships
this year. It seems probable thYt the
United States may see a new champion,
and that a Western man may be the
lucky holder is not an Impossibility.
With National Champion Lamed suffer
ing with a "game leg:" William J.
Clothier, runner-up last year. Just recov
ering from a severe attack of typhoid
fever: Gustave Touchard. who made a
brilliant start this year in the East, and
particularly two weeks ago at Brook
line. -Mass.. troubled with the vexatious
vermiform appendix: and with Maurice
E. McLoughlln. the fast Callfornlan. re
cent Northwestern champion. Indisposed
as a result of the torrid weather and the
humidity 'of the East, where he has
been playing, there Is the probability of
a "dark horse" proving the victor , of
1910. It would be folly to attempt to
pick the winner, but the West has its
eyes on Long. Bundy or McLoughlin to
hold themselves in shape to challenge
the present champion. William A. Larned,
who is resting at Atlantic City prepara
tory to entering- the National champion
ship games with a determination again
to carry off the honors and the cup,
making his sixth year as holder of the
National tennis championship title.
That Larned Is still to be considered,
despite the fact that he Is nursing a
"game leg." was fully evidenced a week
ago yesterday, when he added to his al
ready long list a new championship title,
that of the Metropolitan tournament. New
York, when he defeated Touchard, In
the delayed final match, in straight seta
with the loss of but two games, the score
being 6-0. 6-1, 6-L The match was neces
sarily postponed from early in July be
cause Larned pulled a tendon In his right
leg while playing Carleton R. Gardner,
the Harvard University man. In the semi
finals. ,
Young Bundy Coming Fast.
With the arrival a week ago of a new
Western champion In Thomas C. Bundy.
of Los Angeles, who defeated Albrecht
Ludke, of Chicago, and the declaration
of Bundy to enter both the singles and
doubles play In the National champion
ship play at Newport, the Westerner
again looms up as a likely candidate for
higher honors. It was Just last year that
young Bundy climbed the ladder In the
National championship play, being beaten
by the winner of the semi-finals at New
port. Here's hoping the Westerner is
runner-up, or better, the champion this
year.
Another surprise this year In the play
for the Western tennis title was the ar
rival of a new woman champion In 17-vear-old
Gwendolyn Rees. of St. Paul,
Minn., who went to Chicago with the
confidence of a veteran and carried every
thing before her, winning from the ex-title-holder.
Mips Carrie B. Neely. in two
out of three sets. The scores were 5-7,
6-3. 7-6.
In tennis circles throughout the coun
try, and more particularly In the East,
is speculation rife as to whether or not
the Westerners. Long and McLoughlin,
Bundy or Hendricks, or the Easterners.
Hackett and Alexander,- or some other
team will be selected to go to Australia
In another attempt to lift the Davis
oup. America today Is "up in the air"
over picking a victorious team, which
might defeat Broke) and Wilding, two of
the greatest players the tennis world has
ever seen, not eliminating the Doherty
brothers or Alexander and Hackett. The
latter thrice doubles champions of the
United States. .
Englishmen! Are Discouraged.
From what can be learned over here the
more Englishmen look at their tennis re
sults this Summer the worse they -like
the situation.
There were 97 competitors in the recent
singles championship play held at Wim
bledon. England. Seventy were English.
Only three got to the last eight places;
the American, Beale C. Wright and A.
js. Wilding, a New Zealander. who won
the championship and with Brookes Is the
present holder of the Davis international
cup, knocking them all off as easily as
though playing a practice round. Since
then there have been several London club
championships played telling the same
tale.
"What's wrong?" as the experts, as
they are reminded that 35 of the cham
pionship entrants were the pick of the
younger set.
The reasons may be the same as bother
the American, tennis youth. Here are a
few gathered from watching the play on
any local court.
Youth Given Advice.
The youn player does not teach himself
or herself the game right from the begin
ning They aim at ones for speed and style.
Instead of building up a mechanically perfect
stroks from slow and natural, aa opposed to
rapid and artistic hitting of the ball. They
show this when there la any necessity for a
strike that I short and well-placed; they do
It as If It were a hard, good-length drive,
instead of using their fingers like a good
billiard player. Hence the younger players ran
never control a ball as Nat Emerson or Ber
nard 6ehfwenger do, and can never make
their ground work a secure foundation: they
simply bang sway from the base line and
there things end In the net or out. Another
and still more vital defect with the younger
players- today is the absence of a bick-hand
stroke. In order to play a winning game
the player must hare a foundation in prectas
hitting on which to build operations at the
net We must look to the next lawn tennis
generation for a revival of sound methods,
and erratic playing will become a thing of
the past. And. finally, keep your eye always
on the ball.
This last bit of advice ie what has
made Mine Haxel Hotchkiss the National
woman champion, at least, so she ad
mitted recently when playing on the
Irvington courts.
LONG WIXS CHAMPIONSHIP
Callfornlan Is First Clay-Court Title-Holder
In Cnlted States.
OMAHA. Aug. 6. Melville H. Long, of
San Francisco, is the first clay-court
tennis champion of the United States,
having won the title today In three sets
from F. G. Anderson, of Brooklyn. The,
match was witnessed by the largest gal
lery of the tournament at the Omaha
field club courts. The score was 6-6, 6-1,
6-1. Anderson was clearly outclassed by
the Westerner.
Anderson, of Brooklyn, and Hayes, of
Chicago, won the clay-court tennis cham
pionship In double, beating Long, San

PURSES TO BE BIG

STOCK SHOW IS FEATURE
Stake of $10,000 for Trotting Event

quiries Are Numerous. ,
When the doors of the Harvest Fes
tival of the Portland Fair & Livestock
Association are thrown open to the
public on September 6. the stock ex
hibits will be one of the most attract
ive features of the show. It i planned
to make this feature unique and un
surpassed In the history of these shows.
At a recent meeting of the associa
tion the directors decided to appropri
ate 310,000 In cash prises' for the best
grades of cattle, sheep, horses and hogs.
PORTLAND TENNIS CRACKS MAY CLASH FOR HONOR OF
MEETING CALIFORNIA EXPERTS.
yejaL""! tsC
Brandt Wlckersham.
In this respect the coming show is to
eclipse any other ever held in the
Northwest, and since the offering of the
cash prizes in addition to regular prizes
always offered at these, shows the en
try lists are being swelled daily by
breeders anxious to profit by. the com
petition. Stock raising in the Northwest has been
much neglected because of a lack oi
general Interest. . but In the last few
yeans ranch owners have come to realise
the possibilities of this industry and the
growth of stock raising has created a
new field in connection with these annual
fairs and race meets. Interest in the
stock shows has been on the Increase for
several years, and last year, both at
Seattle and at the Oregon State Fair at
Salem, great crowds assembled about the
Judging ring when the livestock was
being Judged.
Vaudeville attractions in large numbers
are being arranged for for the North
western circuit of fairs, of winch
Portland will be the initial one. These
attractions are provided and staged in
front of the grandstand to offset the
sometimes tiresome delays in Vrtlnf.
the harness races. By Introducing
open-air vaudeville attractions it is
planned to keep up a general interest
on the part of the spectators through
out each day's programme.
Referring to the racing feature of
the coming Harvest Festival, the fore
cast Indicates one of the best race
meets the Northwest has ever seen.
The pacers and trotters, not to mention
the few runners, promise some keen
contests for the big stkes, as well as
the lesser purses.
When It was first decided to offer
a purse of 110.000 for a trotting event
at the coming meet many of the men
Interested in the association were in
clined to scout the advisability of such
action, but in view of the general in
terest being evinced In this race alone
they have come to the conclusion that
it will help the fair Immensely. This
purse Is the largest ever offered In the
Northwest and compares favorably
with the handsome stakes hung up on
the Grand Clrc-it each year. It also
serves to call attention of the many
horsemen of the country 'to Portland
and Oregon, and once they become In
terested In a racing circuit It is only
a matter of time when they will ar
range to bring their stables to such a
meet. '
Dick Wilson, the veteran Grand Cir
cuit driver, who has brought his stable
to Portland, says he has heard from
several Eastern drivers, all of whom
Inquire anxiously as to the possibility
of the Northwestern country, and Wil
son has assured them they will make no
mistake in coming to Portland and
racing over the circuit which' is to be
ushered In with this meeting.
DUGDALE SEEKING GARRETT
Cohn of Spokane Would Bo Good
Turn for Seattle Now.
SEATTLE. Wash., Aug. 6. (Special.)
Joe Cohn. the Spokane Club president. Is
trying to engineer a deal whereby he can
secure for Dugdale Pitcher Garrett, of
Portland. Cohn. says that he can get
the services of the promising twirler.
but Dugdale la still hanging fire and the
deal tonight was all but off until Dug
dale recollected that his pitching staff
Is woefully weak and he must bolster it
some way. Cohn is not disinterested In
hio work.
The Spokane club has Just finished its
hardest series with Seattle and if the
locals can get a good pitcher they may
wallop the teams that are giving Spo
kane a real fight for the pennant.
FIELDER JOXES, WALKED, WIXS
Raymond's Pitcher, Fearful of Bjg
' Leaguer, Gives Him Pass.
CHEHALIS, Wash., Aug. 6. (Spe
cial.) Chehalls won from Raymond
by a score of 7 to 3 In a pretty con-
test today. It was a pitcher's battle
between Jachs for Raymond and Clark,
the University boy, for Chehalls. with
the odds in .favor of Clark. McBrlde,
in right field, made a sensational run
ning catch in the first of a fly ball
at his shoetops.
Hermon, of Raymond, got a two-base
hit and Vivian for Raymond got a
three-base hit. Clark pitched nice ball,
keeping" the hits well scattered. Mc
Brlde made a home run over the left
field fence. Jachs lost his own game

GUESS that was some ball game at
San Francisco yesterday. Any time
two teams battle two full games
without being able to score it is playing
some.
Ralph Willis once more worked a splen
did game against the-Portland team, and
his efforts show that he Is far from being
all in as a pitcher. Willis always did
work good against the Beavers.
It took Vernon 13 Innings to master
"Pa" Dillon's Angel band yesterday,
which was some baseball at that. How
ever, the overtime session between Port
land and Oakland beat it a block.

George Boice pitched his first game for

him from the Cleveland club, for Boice
showed some.

Portland came close to putting over the
winning ace on two different occasions,
but it was not on the cards for such an
occurrence, as the Oaks manipulated out
of the tight holes without damage.

There always is a great curiosity on
the part of the public to know the
salaries paid baseball players, and the
estimates made usually are above the
actual figures, for, reasons the guesser.
It can do no harm to boost It along a
little bit, and it makes a better story.
As a matter of fact club owners are
loath to give out the actual amounts
paid, not so much because they do not
wish the public to know, unless perchance
the figures are niggardly, and this seldom
happens In thesa days of prosperity for
the . National game, but because of the
dissatisfaction that might follow among
the other members of the team.
Of all the men actually playing the
game, eliminating Manager Connie Mack,
of the Philadelphia Athletics, who also
owns stock in the club tn addition to his
salary. Manager Frank Chance, of the
Chicago Cubs, le considered to be far and
away above all other active players in
his earnings from baseball. This, too, is
because Chance also is a stockholder, in
the Chicago club, owning a one-tenth in
terest. Chance's Big Rake-Off.
Prior to the season of 1909, Chance re
ceived a salary of t5500 a year, which
was augmented by his dividends and the
share of one player in post-season and
exhibition game receipts. Chancethen
-t.-A.4 a fnnr.vfm r contract at $7500 &
year, but a dispute arose between him
and President Murphy and he announced
he would not play with the Cubs.
A Chicago newspaper man was sent by
his paper to California to arrange a
truce between Chance and President Mur
phy. One of the conditions of the truce
was that no party to tt should ever re
veal the salary part of the deal, whether
raised or continued the same. But. with,
his dividends on his one-tenth interest.
Chance earns between J20.000 and $30,000 a
year, probably $25,000 a year on an aver-
This one-tenth interest was secured for
Chance in the same manner in which
Murphy secured a majority of the stock.
Charles P. Taft, brother of President
Taft, loaned money to Murphy and
Chance to buy the club, which was sold
at the ridiculously low price of $105,000 in
1905, a figure so small that several per
son's to whom the franchise was offered
thought something was wrong, and re
fused to consider it.
Wagner Gets $10,000.
Because of the National commission de
cision in his case, sentencing him to play
for his contract salary, it is known that
Johnnv Kling signed a three-year con
tract for $4500. To this, of course, must
be added what the players gat from the
post-season series, which, when world s
championship games are played, run up
to $1500 to $2000 extra. Brown. Over
all. Tinker, and Evers probably rank
next in price, at amounts varying from
$4000 to $5000
