BT W. J. PETHAIX.
Walter McCredle and his Portland
team will bid adieu to the fans here
this afternoon, for the Champion Bea
vers are scheduled for two weeks' play
In California commencing with . . the
series with San Francisco, which be
gins Tuesday. With fair weather a
record-breaking crowd undoubtedly
will be out to give the hustling bunch
a royal sendofr.
The Beavers have. played fine base
ball. In eTery department the team
baa more than lived up to expectations.
It Is well balanced and though with
out the serrlces of a left-handed
twirler. McCredle'a braves loom up as
pennant possibilities. The season Is yet
youns; to be claim In the pennant, but
almost every fan who has attended the
Karnes In Portland since the opening
on April II is ready to assert that the
team that does win the flap; this year
will hare to beat out McCredie's Bea
rers. Playing- Is Consistent.
Consistent playing has marked the
work of the team ever since the Bea
rers commenced their climb from fifth
place to the top of the heap by trim
ming the Oakland club. Starting out
the season the team lost the first series
to Los Angeles by the margin of one
game, but since then they bare won
every series played, except that tied
with Vernon the second week of the
season. Today they meet this same
team In the final game of a shortened
series, due to the wet weather condi
tions, which came near postponing all
of the games scheduled here this week.
However, the players braved the rain to
get In a majority of the games sched
uled. During the coming Invasion of Cali
fornia the Bearers meet Ban Francisco
at San Francisco in a series of seven
games. Including two contests sched
uled for next Sunday. At the con
clusion of that series they are sched
uled at Sacramento for six games, and
this will be their first appearance at
the California capital city since last
September. All told the Portland team
is scheduled to play 11 games In two
weeks away from home and will re
turn here on May SS with 8an Fran
rlsco as the opposing club.
McCredle seems to have six reliable
right-handed pitchers, who can' be de
pended upon. With these twirlers the
club Is well fortified and does not need
a left-hander unless a flrst-class one
ran be secured. Good left-handed
pitchers are always of value to a club,
though, as a rule, they are unsteady.
Greggs Are Rarity.
"Southpaw" twirlers like Vean Gregg
re seldom to fcs had. and while there
are a few mw In the Pacific Coast
League who can be styled winners,
they are so scarce that a mediocre
rlght-haoder Is often preferable. The
pitching of Steen. Sea ton. Henderson
and Koestner has been exceptionally
good of late, which Indicates that this
quartet will be able to deliver the
goods right along, and Fullerton and
Fanwell are also high-class twirlers.
who will show well during the season.
Fullerton has been decidedly unfor
tunate during the present sojourn of
the Beavers at home. but. like Gene
Xrapp. who failed to win a game on
the Portland diamond during the first
home series of the club, he may hare
better luck next trip.
Beaton pitched a remarkable game
acainst the Vernon club last Tuesdsy.
which followed a similar performance
asalnst Sacramento the previous week,
end his present record during the home
series Is three wins against one defeat
and this sort of work stamps him as a
successful pitcher.
It II Beaters Are Strongest.
The niarlng of the Beavers at this
ttme brims to mind the consistent work
of the Portland team of 19S. which
cluh won the Pacifi.-- Coast League fla?
that year by the bieccst percentage In
the history of the organization before
or since. Incidentally this club seems
stronger than Hie ISO na-gxegation for
the reason that it possesses better pitch
ers and a. sexnd baseman. In 190 11c
Credie had no regular second baseman
and played Charley Moore. Bill Waters,
"i.ermany" Srhlmpff and Jerry Kane at
that pvsltlon nt different ti-.-.cs. but
none of thm proved steady players. . Of
Ihem all T.arlev Moore, then a green
ld Just cut of Columbia University,
made the best showing and played In
something like To games at that posi
tion. Even Jimmy Mrllaic and Walter
MoCrexlle played a few icimes st second
Thasa. but despite the absence of a reg
ular player the balance of that hard
hitting aggregation carried the t-am to
the top and It son the pennant by a
perrentace of .;57, having cinched tho
f:c tf-re taking the final trip to Cal
ifornia. The Hearers of 111 have one of tlin
insist rrowslslng men who ever played on
the Oast at second base. In the person
of Fill Reisers, and Peckinpaugh Is as
food, a player as was Bill Swevner. now
with the Boston Nationals. Tommy
Fhee'ian can Justly be classed with Jud
Smith. Portland's third baseman of lono,
while Pt!l Raprs Is the peer of Pete Lis
ter at first base In" every depsrtment.
IJster was a great f'eMer, but a poor
Mttr. while ttapps Is not only as good a
fielder as Lister, but Is a batsman of
the reliable type.
In 19 Porticnu had Mike Mitchell.
Jimmy Mcllale and Walter McCredle In
the outfield, and this year Artie Krue
ger. Buddy Ryan and Chet Chadbonrne
are fully the equals of that great trio.

Portland Preparatory Inslltulion
Teams to Contest for Honors
t State University.
High school and preparatory school
athletes of all Oregon are awaiting
with eagerness the coming of Friday
and Saturday of this week, and with
these days the holding of tha All-Oregon
Interscholastlo track and field
meet at the University of Oregon. Eu
gene. Schools In ail sections of the
state are to be represented, and the
Portland delegation probably will be
from Lincoln. Jeferson and Washington
High Schools..
This will be the first All-Oreg-on In
terscholastlo meet to ba held by the
State University. It Is to be regretted
that the meets arranged for the "prep"
athletes by the University of Oregon
and Oregon Agricultural College should
come the week-ends following- each
other.
Heretofore It has been the Oregon
Agricultural College that has held the
all-state interscholastic meets. It was
not until the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege had set Its date for a meet that
the University of Oregon made Its an
nouncement of the Interscholastlc meet.
It Is as yet problematical whether the
academies of Portland will be repre
sented at the University of Oregon
meet. It Is probable that Waahington
will attend the state varsity meet and
also go a week later to tha Oregon
Agricultural College meet. Lincoln and
Jefferson High Schools will send six
men toCugene. It Is probable they will
not be represented at Corvallls.
The personnel of the Washington and
Lincoln track squads has not been de
cided. Jefferson will deputise Captain
Blbee. Catterlln, Chatterton. Sharp. Cox
and Iay to wear its colors. The Lin
coln men are being coached by Henry
Meier, a Lincoln alumnus and an under
graduate at the University of Wash
ington. Meier was a member of the
Multnomah Club relay team that won
the half-mile relay at the recent Co
lumbia University Indoor meet.
The coming week-end will be an
eventful one at the. University of Ore
gon. In addition to the All-Oregon In
terscholastic meet. It will be Junior
week-end. snd besides the University
of Washington will meet the University
of Oregon at tennis. Several enter
tainment functions are being planned
for the flatting athletes.
Announcement has been made by the
University of Oregon that the oval upon
which the boys will run has been im
proved. Twenty-eight schools and
academies will be represented at this
week's meet. .

overboard several times, but their long

out-of-town clubs have been received
to Insure at least 20 matches each night

San Francisco Longing for
Something Really Ex
citing Now.
PROSPECT IS NOT BRIGHT
Recent Pugilistic .Encounters Are
Not of Classy Kind and Fall to
Arouse Interest Wolgast Oom
lng for Tame Bout.
BY HARRY B. SMITH.
SAX FRANCISCO. May 6. (Special.)
San Francisco Is looking and longing
for something In the boxing llnavthat
will be of championship class and, at
tho same time, furnish an Interesting
bout. The last few matches have been
exceedingly disappointing. Anton La
Grave, as you know, was absolutely no
match for Ad Wolgast and thatbout
of a month ago was a farce, pure and
simple.
The last-puglllstio effort, the clash
between Sammy Smith, of Philadelphia,
and Johnny McCarthy, of San Fran
cisco, was almost as disappointing, al
though to tell the truth, there was far
more action. Smith came to San Fran
cisco with a record as long as your arm
and was heralded as one of the boys
who beat Knockout Brown. He didn't
look to be very much in the gym
nasium, but there came to hand letters
from Tad and Bob Edgren saying that
he was a sure winner. The wise clique
went to him with a rush. They scared
all of the McCarthy money out of sight
and the price went to 10 to 6.
In the ring, Sammy did very well
with a straight left for about nine
rounds. Then McCarthy stepped in
with some stomach punches and in the
11th and 16th rounds had Smith stand
ing up against the ropes with his
hands hanging at his sides. It looked a
knockout victory for the San Fran
cisco boy, but, in the exciting moments,
the local boy lost his head and swung
wildly and without setting himself for
a telling punch. In the 17th, the Phlla
delphlan made a game come-back and
stood McCarthy off sufficiently to se
cure a draw.
There was a holler on the part of Mc
Carthy's friends that he should have
had the decision, but the verdict ren
dered by Referee Benny Selig seemed
to be fair enough.- Both boys axe hope
lessly out of the race so far as the
championship is concerned. They sim
ply haven't got enough class to figure
anywhere. They were willing enough
but didn't know how. The fights drew
hnnt xaEno. which, was Eood enough in
view of the class or rather lack of
class that was provided by JJm Griffin,
who had an ordinary show ana aa
miffed lt
Smith wasn't long in starting back
for home. He explained that he had
soma engagements that would require
his presence in Philadelphia. The
chance are, however, that he appre
ciated after the unmerciful scoring he
received at the hands of many of the
newspaper critics, he wouldn't stand
much chance and decided to beat it
while tha walking was good.
At that, there came an offer from
Tom McCarey for a return fight in Los
Angeles between the same lightweights
this month. The offer was turned down
by Smith. , , ,
Jimmy Carroll, however, has decided
to remain at home for a time. The
game will naturally be quiet during the
Summer months in New York, and Car
roll will likely have a chance along the
Coast. He is a good boy at 122 pounls
and puts up an interesting and aggres
sive match.
Ad Wolgast ought to be here within
a few days. He headed for Los An
geles from the East in order to find
out what they intended doing about
that trial and then he will come to San
Francisco to go into training for
Frankle Burns. Since the match with
Burns is set for, May 27 and ' Wolgast
does not care for more than two weeks
of hard training, he has plenty 'of time
before he hits the Seal Rock House,
where ha usually does his stunts.
Frankle Burns is expected back from
Boyes Springs within another week and
will do his plugging at Al White's re
sort In Oakland. Public opinion, has
switched since Wolgast beat Hogan and
the champion will be a strong favorite
over Burns on that account. It ought
to be a good bout to watch, although
on form, Burns can hardly figure to win.
I see that New" York reports spealc
of the possibility of Abe Attell retir
ing from the ring. It Is said that his
physicians have told him that the
bones he broke in a recent battle with
New York Frankle Burns will not heal
rapidly and that he must quit for a
year. Attell Is 28 years of age and
probably shrewd enough to realize that
If he stays out of the game for a year
he will be out of it for keeps.
This makes it quite possible that At
tell will retire, although the Jewish
lad doesn't like to give up anything
without a struggle. If he could dis
pose of the title for a cash transaction
it would be Just what he would like,
but that is something out of his power.
Whatever they may say of Attell and
the way he has stalled in certain of his
matches, he has boen one grand little
scrapper and, when trying, hard to
whip.
Jim Barry, who fought with Gunboat
Smith last Wednesday night in Oak
land, has plenty of matches In sight.
He has been offered a six-round en
gagement with Jack Johnson before
Philadelphia Jack O'Brien's club in the
East and is also considering a match
with the winner of the Kaufmann
Flynn bout in Kansas City.
Eddie Dennis, the San Francisco
feather-weight whose prospective
match with Frankle Conley had to be
called off. may sign articles to fight
Young Rivers In Los Angeles. Young
Rivers, from ,all that can be learned,
is one tough obstacle for the 122-pound
boys. At the same time. Dennis ap
preciates what a victory would mean
to him and is quite willing to take a
chance. He regrets the fact that he
wouldn't get on with Conley, for that
would have brought him mighty close
to the championship, or as close as it
would be possible to jump without beat
ing Abe Attell himself.
I Just had word about Jack Lester,
Tommy Burns' white'hope, who has re
cently arrived in Australia. Lester
had a tough trip, according to reports.
He was sick most of . the trip and at
the first opportunity cabled that the
match must be postponed for a full
month after his arrival. The news
paper boys have it doped out that the
fight with Bill Lang will take place
about tho middle of May, so that we
should be getting word very shortly
as to how It turned out. They say
that Bill Lang, who is still a prime
favorite, is very confident of being able
to whip Lester.
One-Bound Hogan has not yet etajrt-
ea lor Dan rTBacisca reruia io
exploded "phenom" is not sure of the
reception that will be accorded him
and wants to wait until the recentness
of his defeat has blown over.
