tAS FRANCISCO. CaU July -1.
(Special.) It mar t a little early to
admit It and Danny Lone will look
upon this confession as rank treason,
but the San Francisco scribes from top
to bottom of ths list, look for the Bear
ers to make a runaway race. Of course
thlnfs may chana-e. and very frankly
we hope they will, but there seems to
he no stopping the Oreftonlans. and the
way the other clubs In the race are
flSMtlnc rh other, they are doing
nothing more nor lees than cutting off
one another's noses.
A couple of weeks aco. when the
Oaks were Just about due to be at home
f.r three weeks, the secretary of the
Oakland club wrote: "Commenctna
Tuslay the Oaks will be at home for
three weeks, and by the end of that
time they will be so far In front that
the other clubs will be merely fight
In for second position."
It was a dismal prophesy as we look
st It now. and there Is nothing to bear
It out.
Seals IK Well Vnder Handicap.
The Seals have been dotna- better
than might have been expected of them
In their crippled condition. There Is
n salnrarlnc that Injuries to the In
field hare tended to hurt the boys
Just where ther ought to be strongest,
but the disappointment locally has been
with the pitchers, who have come far
fron performing as well as expected of
t em at the on tee t of the eeaeon.
I doubt very much If Oakland will
be any more dangerous than It Is Just
st present, and If the Beaver twlrlers
ran hold up they ought to win out
! ne. I know that Is the sentiment
irons; the local baseball writers, snd
most of them are prejudiced to the
extent that they are putting for one
learn or the ether as between San Fran
cisco and Oakland.
Seals Weak on Pitchers.
Long doesn't appear to be strength
ening his team In the pitching depart
ment. Just where they need It the most.
To the contrary, he tm getting new out
fielders, evidently figuring that what
he wants Is more hitting. He has
asked waivers on Heinle Melcholr for
one thing, and has two new outfielders
on the road. Art Smith, from Austin.
Texas, and Joe Holland, from Roanoke.
Va. Smith was with Lynchburg. Ti,
la.it season, and both of theso men are
vouched for by Catcher Walter Schmidt
and Outfielder Wat Powell. Their
records show they have been hitting
the ball well In their respective league.
Just who wtlll go when they arrive
remains to be seen. Melcholr. of
coarse, has been selected since waivers
have been asked, and the chances are
that Tommy Madden la the other player
doomed to make a change. Several
weeks ago Long tried to trade Madden
to Happy Hogan for the fleet-footed
Johnny Kane, but Hogan wouldn't
think of letting the ex-Cub go. so the
trad waa off.
Hunky Shaw has plrked up so well
since he ha been playing the last
three weeks, that the chances are very
much In favor of his sticking.
Some of the pitchers, too. may be
allowed to roam. Carl Zamlovk has
been troubled with a stitch In his side
that has prevented him from doing his
most effective work, snd Melkle does
not appear to be rounding Into the
frm that he showed when he was In
training at Modesto.
Oaks Are Well Storked.
The Oaks are well stocked up with
players. I counted 10 of them In uni
form the other day. all cavorting on
the diamond, and when I commenced to
figure It out. discovered that Wolver
ton has I? men all told. Some of
these, of course, are youngsters, boys

pitcher from Napa; Jimmy Lewis, a

boy who Is both pitcher and Inflelder.
are among them. Bohrn comes from
f" same part of the world as Oscar
Vltt. Wotverton says that he has a
good rnrve. and the worst thing about
him Is his slse. or lack of It. as he is a
small fellow. Lewis hse a good break,
and Wolverton declares that It la slm
plr a question of control with him.
Jimmy Byrnes Is one more footloose.
H didn't sign a contract with the Vil
lagers, but merely went along to Port
land to help them out. When Hasty
Joined the Hocan crew there was no
room for Jimmy, and he rs back home
In Ban Francisco watching the games
and waluag for a chance for himself.
Schmidt Ik Strong Man.
I see that the Port Wind fans like
Walter Schmidt. The experts down In
this neck of the woods figure out that
he Is one of the best catchers la the
league. If not the beat. He has plenty
of ginger and also knows how to use
his head. He pulled off a trick the
other day that stiowed bow he studies
the situation. Maggart was on second
and Wares at first. They started to

was pitched. Schmidt's Brst Impulse

CARLISLE'S unssslsted triple mss
sarre at Ixs Angeles on Wednes
day recalls some other remarkable
anecdotes of the diamond.
"I was holding down third base for
Albsny In the New Tork State League
In a game against Syracuse on July
day In 110." said Patsy ORourke. of
the Sacramento Club, when In the city
with his Senstora on the Isst trip
North. "Alexander the Great, the
wonderful twlrler now leading the
Philadelphia Nationals, was pitching
for Syracuse.
"Three Syracuse men were on the
bases In the last of the 15th Inning
with nobody out and a score of S to 4
In our favor. McBrlde. our star twlrl
er, wss In the bos but with the bases
full and nobody down we c uld hardly
hope for victory.
"Armbruster. slogging outfielder of
the Syracuse, who finished the season
with an average of .103. picked up his
pet bludgeon and strode to the Plata.
Here Is where my headwork came Into
pier.
"Armbruster waited for a nice. Ju'cy
waist ball and then slsmmed It down
st me like a 10-Inch projectile from a
cannon. I got the ball on the first
bounce, turned In the line and tagged
the runner going home from third,
making one out. and then, plunging my
hand Into my rear pocket, fished out a
big. round potato I had concealed there
before the game and hurled It high over
the first baseman's head Into the bleach
ers. "Of course." continued Patsy, "the
two other base runners and the bats
men supposed I had thrown the ball
away so sll I hsd to do was to stick
on the line between third and home
and tag them ss they Jogged by me.
It Is the first and only unassisted quad
ruple play on record."
Patsy thereupon bit off a four-pound
chew from a slsable hunk of tobacco
dug up from the recesses of the same
pocket that produced the far-famed
spud, while Ben Henderson quietly
sneaked to a cafe and secured a nice
ripe tomato.
Here endetb, the story.

Ous Fisher. ex-Portland catcher now
with Cleveland, displayed even greater
brain power In a game with the Detroit
Tigers a few weeks ago. according to
"Speck" Harkness. who recently re
turned from the Somersvllls granary.
"It really was the greatest play I
never saw." ejaculated the new Beaver
hurler. Ty Cobb, the wonderful De
troit baseball machine, has been run
ning wild on the bases, going from
take his turn on the mound. Hunt has
picked up weight rapidly since he was
released from the hospital.
Mickey La Longs and Warren were
left at home by the Senators after they
came from the north, and Jimmy Lewis
has been shipped to San Francisco, as
It wss figured that he would do better
where the weather was not so warm as
In Sacramento.

several days on account of ths shakeup
that he got last week when a ball hit
him In the mouth and knocked out sev
eral of his teeth. Hetllng has been
doing duty around second base, and has
been playing a good game of bail.
Cal Ewlng dropped the remark before
leaving for Portland that hereafter he
would sit on the bench with his boys
and Inject a little life Into them. He
thinks the San Francisco club Is not
sufficiently aggressive, and that Is the
complaint made by a lot of the fans
this year. It waa particularly noticeable
when Tvnnant waa out of the game. The
Seals haven't very many scrappy ball
players on the team, and It will be a
good thing to stir them up a trifle.

BALTIMORE. Mi, July II. That
Baltimore will make a determined ef
fort to be represented next year by a

Fisher saw Cobb priming for his merry

Not a bad idea, either, was It?

Up In the Montana State League
there used to be a manager whoso
name was spproxlmately Cooney. snd
who was an awful cut-up. He wss fa
mous for his repartee and could pull It
like his namesake Philip on the Spo
kane Club, without thinking It over
the night before.
Cooney dug up a pitcher named Jacks,
who later was tried out by the Butte
Club snd blew. At any rate, on hla
first game out under Cooney he slung
a no-hlt, no-run game and fanned 2J
men. The natives went wild. The next
time Jacks wss to pitch Cooney saw
more money at the gate than he could
believe. The owners of his club had
also sunk a small fortune on the out
come of the game.
Play time came but no Jacks. The
"kid" had stage fright and had "beat

no other good pitcher on hand snd was
"up against It." He sent a scout out
to look for Jacks snd sst down to wait
The Village Gambler, proprietor of a
two-bit crap game In the barber shop,

Cooney thereupon climbed up on a
stump near first base and made this
Immortal announcement:
"No use to get excited, gents. I
can't open till I get Jacke or better."
The rebuttal so amused the crowd
that It waited for another half hour,
when the recalcitrant mound man was
found snd trotted out In time to save
the day.

WALSH SCORES JONES
WHITE SOX PITCHER DENIES HE
XEEDS JONES BRAINS.
Twirler &ajs He Made ex-Manager
Name and Almost Ruined Arm
In Making Attempt.
Fielder Jones, ex-manager of the Chi
cago White Sox. and now a resident of
Portland. Is "In bad" with one or his
former star twlrlers. Ed Walsh, picked
by Lajole as ons of the greatest pitch
ers In the American League, who has
made every team In the clroult eat from
his hand this season. Is the man on the
warpath and all because of a story cir
culated in the press of the country that
Walsh needs Jones' brains to be most
effective. . .
According to this fanciful tale, which,
by the way. did not originate in Port
land and did not come from Jones, the
premier White 8ox pitcher, misses the
wise counsel of the former leader of the
white-hosed athletes and has failed to
twirl as he did In 108 because he and
Jones are separated. This Walsh denies
emphstlcally. and his excoriation Is In
teresting, even If not well-founded:
"If Fielder Jones Is not the author
of these stories about the Vhlte Sox
and me In particular, then he owes It
to the fans to deny thsm before they
are accepted as coming from him for
a certainty. A short time ago Jones
was quoted as saying the White Sox
would finish in lsst place. After the
lapse of a few weeks that story about
me Is printed In the Western press. The
story sounds very much like a Jones
ysrn. It Is a piece of fiction.
This story says that I need Fielder
Jones, and says my greatest success
Dummy was saying and nobody cared.
Even Dummy's wife made the most of
her mate's misfortune, for when Dummy
got too obstreperous with his language
and "spousle" tired of his tirade she
simply turned off the lights. Dummy
waa "speechless" then for keeps.
To return, however, to the boomerang
ball and triple play.
Jack Barry, ex-blg lesguer on the
Beaver's payroll, must be given credit
for the story.
"It took place In Montgomery, Ala..
seven years ago, declared Barry, with a
shake of his head and one of those innocent-like
expansions of the pupil of
the left optic "John McGraw had the
Giants down there, and Dummy Taylor
waa with the club for Spring practice.
Dummy was a great pitcher. He
taught Mathewson all he knows and
forgot more than Matty ever learned.
"You remember." said the popular
ex-New Yorker, "that Taylor was try
ing out his new ball then. He called
It a "boomerang.' He could throw it
but could never get control of It for
more than one Inning at a time. Hav
ing seven fingers on his right hand,
he could give the ball a double and
return twist that made it go to the
plate, reverse English and then come
back to htm."
Jimmy Richardson was all eyes by
now. He hsd never heard Jack Barry
tell the tale before.
"Sometimes," proceeded Barry, "the
ball took queer turns. For Instance, it
could turn too sharply down and hit
the ground In front of the plate, and
again It might Jump straight up Into
the air like a tip foul. But at the time
I am talking about. It cut the queerest
caper I ever saw a ball cut.
"Big Ike Durrett was at bat. and
Ike was like Bosco. he could 'eat 'em
alive.'. The bases were full, and so
were some of the bleacherltes. It waa
the ninth inning and the score was a
tie. Taylor had two strikes and three
ball on Ike. He was never known to
strike out. From my perch In right
field I heard Bresnahan shout 'Put the
boomerang on the next one, Taylor.'
"Taylor did. He wound those seven
digits around the spheroid and bent his
arm like a figure eight. The ball flew
In a spiral curve, straightened out like
a plummet when It reached the plate.
Ike made a. vicious swing, but never
touched the balL It deflected at . an
angle of 45 degrees and hit 'kerplunk'
Into Fred Tenneys hands. The man on
first had started for second, so Tenney
touched the bag and threw to second,
and the ball was then relayed to third
for the most wonderful triple play the
world has ever tried to forget."
Thus perlsheth the series on "The
Grestest Play I Never Saw." Hugh
Fullerton please notice.
waa due to the fact that Jones made
me win. The reverse is true. I made
Fielder Jones a name for himself In
the baseball world. He came near ruin
ing my pitching arm In order to win
another pennant in 1903.
"I admit Fielder Jones had brains,
but he didn't make me a pitcher, and
he didn't make me win. I won be
cause I hsd the nerve to battle ahead
In spite of the handicaps that Jones
imposed on me."

Session With San Franc leso Has
Strengbtcned Portland's Position
at Top of Column Pitchers
Are Second to None.
BY W. J. PETRAIN.
The halfway point In the 1911 pen
nant race of the Pacific Coast League
was passed some days ago, and the
Portland Beavers are out in front by a
goodly margin, but not a big enough
one to guarantee another champion
ship. However, the Beavers' pitching staff
Is now second to none in the league,
and It does not seem probable that the
club, which has so positively routed the
San Francisco Seals this week will
suffer any material slump which would
deprive it ofthe championship honors.
But basebalf is a funny game. It Is a
difficult matter to predict the outcome
of any one contest, let alone a series
or succession of them.
When the Seals arrived In our back
yard last Tuesday, the fans expected
some red-hot battles, with the visitors
as likely victors In the majority of the
games of the series. Instead, the Seals
lost the series in consecutive games
and the last game of the week is to
be played this afternoon. After this
game, both teams will depart for Cali
fornia, Portland being scheduled to
play a week at Los Angeles with the
Angels and thence to San Francisco for
a seven-day session with the Seals,
after which they return to Portland
for a period of three weeks. ,
The series which concludes this
afternoon has been fruitful of some
stellar and some Indifferent baseball,
but the latter does not pertain to the
work of the home guard. McCredle's
players cinched the series with the
Seals by taking chances, and were suc
cessful when the breaks came their
way at critical times.
Timely batting and fine fielding
when such was absolutely essential
to present the other fellows from scor
ing runs, were other factors In giving
the Beavers the advantage over the
Seals. "Chet" Chadbourne distinguished
himself on numerous occasions during
this series. It was his trusty willow
that put the Seal twlrlers to rout on
several of the occasions. While he
has not had many outfield chances this
week, Chadbourne has been on the Job
every minute, and notljTng has escaped
his Judgment In the patch guarded by
him. Ryan and Krueger have likewise
performed brlliantly in the outer patch,
and the Infield has been a veritable
atone wall In the pinches.
Portland's sterling twlrlers have also
shown their merit in more ways than
one. Time after time they have found
themselves In holes, through errors or
their own liberality, and have rallied
by fanning out opposing batsmen in
ticklish situations. With twlrlers like
Steen, Seaton. Henderson, Koestner,
Henkle and Harkness working in grand
form. It does not seem probable that
McCredle's team will drop many games.
Should the Beavens maintain their win
ing gait right along, the only possible
chance for them to lose the pennant
would be for some one of the contend
ing clubs to come through with an ex
traordinary spurt.
When the Portland team won the
pennant in 190S, the Seattle .Club be
came a contender about this stage of
the race but butting in with a recard
of II straight victories. Whether any
of the present Pacific Coast League
teams can do it cannot be said.
The next two weeks will be eagerly
watched by the Portland fans. The se
ries with the Angels will not open until
Wednesday, as the Beavers cannot
make the Jump to Los Angeles in time
to play the regular Tuesday engage
ment. This means that the Beavers
will be compelled to play 14 games In
12 consecutive days, as Tuesday's game
will be played at Los Angeles on the
following Monday, and that night the
Portland team will Jump to San Fran
cisco to open a seven-game series with
the seals on the following Tuesday.
With such a strenuous string of games
fronting them it Is well that McCredle's
pitching staff is in first-class shape for
the struggle.
POLO NOW ATTRACTIVE
PASADENA SPORTDOM TO SEE
NEW FIELDS AT CLUB.
Burlingame and Coronado Players
Are Much Interested in Plans.
VanderbilfB Ponies Coming.
PASADENA. CaL, July 22. (Special.)
Three new polo playing fields are to
be constructed at the New Valley Coun
try Club here. They will be as fine
as experience and money can secure.
And the ponies will be housed in sta
bles that have cost several thousand
dollars. Such are the plans that are
now being perfected by enthusiastic
members and all the members are
enthusiastic of the New Valley Coun
try Club.
With the new fields and stables com
pleted it is expected that between 20
and 30 strings of the finest polo ponies
in the East will be brought to Pasa
dena, and that each succeeding Win
ter will possibly show a larger Influx
of Eastern players. The Pasadena
players expect to have several new
strings of ponies before next Winter.
Burlingame and Coronado players
are much interested in the Pasadena
plans, and their stables will be in Pas
adena during the greater part of the
season.
Conditions are Ideal for polo playing
here. It is not necessary to mention
the perfect weather, which lasts in
variably until after New Years. Every
body knows about that. But hotel ac
commodations are unequaled any
where, and the Winter social life of
Pasadena, so much of which can be
lived out of doors, appeals to nearly
all lovers of polo.
