Portland fan will have the pleasure of welcoming: Walter ileCredle and Tils hustling ball players on the home lot next Tuesday afternoon, for the Beavers return that day to begin a four-weeks' stand that will wind up the season of J10 In this city. It has been a great baseball season and the showing- made by the Portland team has been satisfactory In every way. McCredie has kept , his train at or near the top longer than any other rlub In the circuit. Nevertheless ' a few skeptics have found fault with the club and some scribes around the cir cuit hare uttered unkind things about the Beavers. The recent performances of the team, however, have caused a cessation of most of the adverse crit icism, for "nothing succeeds like suc cess." and McCredie has been very suc cessful. The first club to be entertained here will be Happlcus Hogan and his Vernon outfit, an aggregation always dangerous against the leaders.

After that date the Reavers Invade the Southland for the fnal stand, which will extend over period of three weeks. After leaving home McCredie's men meet the Seals In a seven-game series In the Bay City, going thence to Uos Angeles for the final two weeks, playing Vernon and the Peraphs In order. The seven remaining' weeks of the sea n are bound to be replete with hard- fought struggles, for even the Seals, who were supposed to be out of the running after the Mackmen (lapped them In live of six games, have braced up and have been traveling at a merry clip for the last two weeks. Of these seven weeks of play the Seals are at home In six of trtem. though three weeks will be witn Oakland, which can be considered at home as well. The 21 games against Oakland mill put the Seals to the test and will also try the nerve and strength of the Oaklanders. These clubs play hard ball against each other. Because of the long Oaks-Steals se ries. Portland fans are cheered Into the belief that these games will work to the advantage of McCredie's players, and will give. Portland the opportunity of getting a lead big enough to offset the divadvantas-e of the final three weeks in the Southland. In the series with Vernon. It Is pos sible that eight games will be played liere. as there are two games postponed from the first visit of the Hooligans to Portland: one of these will surely be played In a double-header next Sunday. McCredie and lfocan may also arrange a double-header for either Thursday or Ktturday to play off the other game. m Personal observation of Harry Wol- verton. manager of the Oakland team, had caused the writer to believe him be one of the keenest and most level headed baseball managers in the league, but last Thursday's Incident at I -OS Angeles seems to make this Impression erroneous. For a manager, who has a team with a righting chance for the pennant, to forget himself so far as to permit his club to forfeit at this stage of the race Is nothing short of Idiotic. "When the rumpus occurred between Wolverton and the umpire It was only the seventh Inning. Even If the Angels did get a lead of one run through a decision, rotten or otherwise. Woljj:r ton should have kept his head a'aU played the game out.- for the o3ks were hitting well that day and might have won anyway. The Oakland manager has been pljv ing baseball long enough to know tj.it there are very few good umpires. irid In the opinion of the average ball player, none are capable In any way shape or form, so the leader of the scrappy Oaks should have controlled his wild-eyed desire to massacre Mr. tireevy and take his chances as every one else has to do. McUreevy was probably absolutely correct In his rul ing, for he Is more likely to hare been calm and collected than W'olverton. whose club had already been beaten In two games by the despised Angels, on whom the Oaka had figured to fatten their lead and run away from Portland. Xhere was a time when Walter Mc- redie was the original Senegambian fire ester when the umps crossed his Idea of the fitness of things, but years of experience with the more or less competent officials hired by O. Unit, et a I., has taught the Portland mana ger a lesson. This season he has been meek as a lamb under any and all con. ditiona. though Big Mac has had the hooks tossed Into his club as often If not ortener than Oakland. Wolverton's peevish conduct at Los Angeles has lost him the respect and esteem of a host of Portland fans who had come to admire him. despite the fact that his luh has been a thorn In the side of loyal patrons of the game In this city. .MRS.

According to Oarry Herrmann, president of the Na tional Baseball Commission, the meet ing to decide the details of the world's series between the Chicago Nationals and the Philadelphia Americans, will not be held for two weeks at least. It Is said, howexer, that the opening day will be Sunday.

Frank troy Chance, leader of Chi cago Cubs of the National League. which team has practically cinched the National League pennant this season, making four wins In five years. Is a notable figure In the National pastime. A native of Fresno. CaU Frank Chance commenced playing baseball in the vicinity of that city, and showed such marked ability after one year in the then California State League that be waa secured by Chicago, with which club he first played as a catcher. Later he cast off the pad and big mlt and undertook to play first base, at which position he became an expert, and hia batting feats earned him the regular Job and also aided in winning several pennants. When Chance first went to Chicago. Tommy Tracy, now a resident of Portland, was living there, and Chance always delighted in mixing in friendly boxing match. Tracy claims that Chance would have come mighty close to being the world's champion heavyweight pugilist had he embarked on a career aa a fighter Instead of a ball player, for Tommy says he never saw a huskier or more powerful young fellow than Chance was In 1S99 and 1 !. The following from the Pittsburg Leader aptly describes the peerless leader of the Chicago club: "Frank Leroy Chance, manager of the Chicago Nationals. Is one of the most brilliant men playing baseball today. Had it not been for the efforts of this great leader the Cubs would not occupy the position they do In baseball. "The "peerless leader' Is close to six feet tall, slightly bow-legged and moves about with the grace of a hippo potamus, lie has a husky pair of shoulders and a powerful pair of arms, however, and Is a marvelous exhibition of muscular development. "Generally his face wears a strained expression. In other words, he usu ally carries his 'fighting face" with him. To glance at him and pass a hurried comment one would likely re mark that he was a sour, cranky sort of a human being. ' but to a person who really knows Frank Chance he Is a model for kindness and chivalry. "Discipline among his men ts what Chance demands. And that la one of the reasons for his continued success. He is not a bit backward about "ball ing. out' a man on the field, either. He haa no favorites: It does not matter whether he Is talking to hla closest friends. "Big Orvle' Overall, unassum ing little Johnny Kane or the pestif erous Evers. They all look alike to him on the ball, field. "Chance Is a Napoleon In action. If not . in appearance. If there la any army the peerless' leader can command It is the little band of 20 or so that represent Chicago In the National League. Ills players shrink from his wrath. Just as they respond to his praise or commands. - "He is a natural-born gentleman. Recently a ruffian Insulted one of the women folk while the Cubs were on board a train eastbound. Chance heard of the occurrence several hours later and immediately proceeded to give the tough the beating of his life. "If the Cubs win the world's series this Fall It will be due almost as much to Chance's efforts as to the rest of the team combined. "Chanre Is a great automobile enthu siast. After each game is over Mr. and Mrs. Chance drive home or to the hotel for dinner. loiter they take a trip over the boulevards or out through the country, and in this manner the , FIEL.IEIt JOXES DENIES AGAIN ComUkey Has Not Offered to Sell Him Single Share of Stock. Ever since Fielder Jones announced his Intention of retiring from baseball and settling in Oregon, rumors of his being connected with some big league club have been circulated at Intervals. He has been reported to have pur chased Interests in the St. Louis and Washington American League clubs and the Boston and Brooklyn Nationals, but the most recent rnmor is that he will once more handle the Chicago White Sox and will take charge of the team next Spring. Jones laughed ajt the rumor yester" day and said: "Guess they must have run out of clubs for me to buy, or else have got the impression that I have to play ball to get three squares a day. When I settled In Portland nearly two years ago I said that the only chance for me to return to-the game would be the opportunity of buying an In terest In a major league club suitable to me. and as far as I know Comiskey has not offered to sell me a single share of atock.

Bodie's average is ,!82 and Fisher and Tennant are tied at .276. Fisher has slumped considerably, but Captain Casey and Ivan Olson have been doing the brunt of the batting for Mc Credie's men since they left home.

Considering the approaching world's championship baseball series which will undoubtedly be fought out between the Chicago Club, of the National League, and tho Philadelphia Club, of the Ameri can League, a description of the versa tile leader of the latter club, Cornelius McGIIlicuddy, better known as Connie Mack, is In order. Cornelius McGIIlicuddy, whose name has been obligingly shortened by the scribes. Is one of baseball's many pecu liar characters. Unlike any other man leading a team of athletes to victory on the diamond is thte quiet, allm, even thin leader of the Philadelphia American League Club, known as the Athletics. Tall, rawboned and so thin that some of his friends, before getting well ac quainted with him, think him sickly, Connie Mack is a most deceiving person. He Looks Like Minister. As a rule, he dresses in a semi-minis terial garb, which, with his stoical fea tures and studious attitude, lend him the appearance of a clergyman Instead of a baseball leader. To see Connie Mack the first time would be to size him up as a school teacher or a zealous layman of some religious sect, and not one man in hundred would believe it when in formed that this same cadavorous-Iooking individual was one time a major-league catcher, but such is a fact, for Connie Mack once wore the mask and pad to the credit of the game. Looks are frequently deceiving, and in the case of this man, who is soon to he- come a factor In the greatest baseball struggle of the years, is a baseball gen eral of the keenest ability.

He goes to the ballyard via street car, climbs the stairs into the grandstand, buys a scorecard and walks slowly down to the bench. Arriving at the bench, he removes his coat, drawa a pencil from his pocket and makes a few marks on the score card. When the contest starts he sits with his han'ds on his knees, body leaned forward and wigwags diligently with the score card. Occasionally he ehlfts his feet, all of which has great significance 'or the tolling athlete. After the game he waits until after the crowd leaves the park, climbs onto a streetcar and goes back to the hotel quietly, with dignity and without a smile. Mack Like Teacher. "Mack" handles his ball players like a woman teaches the children In primary grades firmly, kindly and with everlast ing patience. Hia players love him, they work for him and are satisfied. He has shoved a bunch of youths, supported by a few old heads, to the front in the pen nant race, and they are out there with a good, comfortable lead. Cornelius McGillicuddy is no wizard, but he is a close student, and he devel oped himself from an ordinary catcher to an astute director or a major-league club. . . When the world's series begins, two men of entirely different temperament will guide the destinies of the rival clubs. Will the "Strenuous" Chance triumph over the "Studious" Mack as he did on two occasions over the "Boisterous" Jen nings? 33ll9!14 30'17!13 33)18114 lis 10 8 9 i 4 31117114 Krann.
