Speedy Organization Makes
Phenomenal Showing."
GINGER CHIEF ATTRIBUTE
But Two Teams This SeaMin Have
Put Organization In Hole Pro
line! of Bartholomew's Giants
Have Offers With Big Clubs.
The phenomenal success that has at
tended the battles of the Gresham
Giant, under the lesdership of "Bart"
Bartholomew, has attracted no end of
comment from amateur baseball follow
ers of the Willamette Valley. But two
teams have come out victors In matches
sgainst this speedy aggregation, and
both of these have disbanded. The
Giants' record for the season stands 18
gsmes won and four lost. Three of the
defeats were suffered at the hand of
Vancouver, Wash., and Goldendale. The
other was one contest In a series of
four with Rupert's Eschles.
Jack Hargreaves, Rich Parrott and
Billy Bauer, Gresham'a outfield, are con
sidered three of the speediest outfielder
around here. - Each of the trio clouts
the ball hard. Porter Tett. who takes
care of third base; besides being sn ac
curate thrower and fast lnflelder. Is
skilled on bases. Melvln Lake, now with
Victoria, achieved a remarkable reputa
tion while twirling for Bartholomew. He
Joined the professionals recently,, and In
his first game held the Portland North
west club down to four hits. He lost
the game because tha Canadians couldn't
connect with Maxmeyer. another lad
who was twirling his initial game in
league company?
Enthusiasm Is Keynote.
Manager Bartholomew attributes the
success of his youths to their speed,
aggressiveness, consistent batting, team
work and an enthusiaem which la un
surpassed. He singles out none as par
ticular stars, but givea each equal credit
for the wonderful showing.
"All of the boye are young, with
the exception of Parrott, who . Is an
old head at the game." said "Bart." In
praising the work of his team. "They
have all sorts of 'pep' and go Into
every game with confidence. Most of
the men in the Infield are light and
consequently fast. Their throwing is
accurate, their base running good and
hitting consistent and timely. This,
coupled with the lack of 'solid ivory"
stunts, mskes them a hard bunch to
beat."
Two men on Bartholomew line-up
have been offered a trial in professional
ball. George Robinson, the speedy
shortstop, was recently wanted by both
Victoria and Boise, Idaho, the latter
being In the Union Association. Second
Baseman Roberts had an opportunity
to try out with Tacoma. Both young
men probably will test their mettle In
the organised field next year. They
have shown class among the eml-pros.
Goldendale Game Memorable.
The hardest series that 'the Giants
have played In thl. year wa. against
Goldendale. and they came out on the
wrong end. The'y got oft to a flying
start, but dropped the next one. The
third and deciding tangle lasted 13
Innings snd was declared one of the
finest baseball battles ever seen at
Goldendale. Th. score was 5 to 4.
Rupert's Eschle. were walloped thrice
for daring to crush Into the champion
ship hopes of Oreaham-s representa
tives. Whll. Gresham la beingasnade known
to the outside world through the
Giants' string of victories. ' Portland
really deserve the credit for produc
ing the champion. The majority of
the players are local lads.

BATTING
AVERAGE
Portland Player Is Still in Lead
With 40 Marks Over
Maggart.
OAKLAND TWIRLERS BEST
Abies and Gregory Placed In Top
Row of Slab Artists in Pacific
Coast League--Chadbourne Is
Portland's Base Stealer. '
While th Beavers lost the two series
away from home to the Angel, and the
Seal. Buddy Ryan tfld not lose any of
his batting prowess, for the hard hit
ting Portland man batted at a tremend
ous clip on the road and increased his
average to .263.
When the Beavers went South the
last tim Ryan wa credited with a
batting percentage of .351 and the fig
ures published herewith, which, indi
cate his batting up to and Including
the games of August S, show Buddy
to have increased hia mark 12 points
while tear from home.
Ryan Is certainly enjoying a great
year and his remarkable ability seems
to assure him of a permanent berth in
the big show.
Maggart Shows Ability.
Harl Maggart. the speedy Oakland
outfielder, is the second best batsman
In the league, unless Smith, the new
Seal who has played in only a few
games. Is to be considered. Mag"gart
Is entitled to the runnerup position be
cause of his long service with the Oak
thia season, and he 1b batting for an
average of .3.4, quite a respectable
figure in any league. Krueger and
Chadbourne are two other Beavers who
took a flight upwards in the batting
average column during the time the
team was away from home.
Oakland seems to posses the .two
best bets In the pitching line in Abies
and Gregory, both of whom are leading
the other Pacific Coast League slab
artists. Henkle, Henderson and Steeu
are the leading Portland slant artist,
while "Speck" Harkness is trailing the
whole bunch without a winning game
to hi. credit to date.
Carlisle, of the. Vernon Club, ia by
long odds the best rungetter of the
league, for the speedy Hooligan lead
off man has tallied 111 times since the
season opened. Jimmy Shinn is sec
ond with 8(5 clangs on the gong to his
credit, while Buddy Ryan is tied wth
Patterson, of Vernon, for third place
with 80 runs.
Cutshaw Is the leading base stealer
with 53 pllferings to his credit. Chad
bourne is Portland's leading base
stealer with 38 steals credited to him.
Buddy Ryan leads in two-base hit
and home runs, and is second to Car
lisle in the number of three-baggers
scored with 10 triples against the
Vernon player's dozen. Ryan is cred
ited w'th 15 home runa. 10 triples and
37 two-base hits since the present sea
son opened. '

game played Sunday, August 6. are

CATCHERS AID MAGGART
OAKLAND SIXGGER TELLS HOW
HE FATTENS AVERAGE.
Outfielder Says He Watches Back
stop When He Would Score
Hit Off Twirler.
Reversing the usual order of things,
Harl Maggart, demon slugger of the
Oakland team, declares he fattens his
averages by studying opposing back
stops Instead of the pitchers.
'I can bat over .400 all season
against San Francisco," vouchsafed
the aggressive outfielder yesterday.
"Watch the catcher. Sure, that's the
dope. Take Berry, of Frisco: Hughle
Smith, of Los Angeles; Murray and
Kuhn, of Portland, and several other
receivers, for lnstance; They are
'curve ball' artists.
"Do you know how I got that home
run with three on the bags on Fri
day?" added Maggart. "Well, I'll tell
you: Koestner served me up a curve.
Then he shot a fast straight one. It
was the same old combination and I
let that fast one go purposely to catch
the curve 1 knew was sure to follow.
"Byram. of Sacramento? Oh, I guess
he's all right, but I tell you. If there
are many like him In the American
League , next year I'm surely going to
bat over .300 and stick," continued
Mag.

have a faculty of bidding for base
ball franchises and then sliding from

months he has dabbled at Denver, St.

TACOMA TOURNEY LIVELY
Story of Campbell-Fording Match
Interesting Reading Portland
Women Players Come to 'Front
in Northwestern Tennis.
BT RALPH H. MITCHELL.
Victoria is to be the next challengei
for the Starr-Jleynolds-Starr . trophy,
donated for play on the International
lawn tennis circuit by L. M. and
Claude Starr and Captain J. J. Rey
nolds of this city. News to this ef
fect reached Portland Friday. As
Vancouver is the present holder of the
cup, the Canadians will have some real
sport all by themselves before the ten
nis season is far advanced.
Vancouver carried the trophy away
from the Irvlngton Club, the original
holders, whll the Canadians were vis
itors at the international here last
month.
It It understood that the Seattle Cluh
is figuring on issuing a challenge soon
afer the Seattle tournament is closed,
to .there are prospects that the fa
mous Portland tennis prixe cup will he
kept busily engaged traveling over
the circuit for the next year or two.
Tacoma Tourney Interesting.
Probably no tournament In the. his
tory of the Northwest, outside of Port
land affairs. Interested so many tennis
enthusiasts as did the Tacoma tourney
last week at Tacoma for the Pacific
Northwest championships.
The playing of Miss Trene Campbell
and Mrs. Walter M. Cook caused no
end of comment, and the showing that
Miss Fording. Oregon woman cham
pion, and Miss Myrtle Schaefer, in sin
gles, doubles and mixed doubles gave
evidence that the Portland players,
particularly among the fair sex, are
comers of no mean caliber.
The following private letter relative
to the Campbell-Fording match last
Thursday will prove interesting read
ing to many admirers of the two Port
land young women:
"Miss Campbell played a wonderful
game, while Miss Fording played lier
usual good game, hut as she said after
the match: 'Irene beat me by better
use of her head.' Miss Campbell did
something that won round after round
of applause from the big gallery of
nearly 400 people. Tennis Is beauti
fully supported in this town.
Lone Point Tells Tale.
"It was the last set and the score
5-4 for Miss Campbell and the game
40-15 In her favor. One point meant
game, set and match. Miss Fordinc
lobbed a ball over , Miss Campbell's
head. The latter swiped at it ami
missed, but the ball went out of bounds
and the umpire called 'Game, set and
match for Miss Campbell.' Miss Camp
bell answered: "I beg your pardon; T
ticked the ball with my racquet. It
was Miss Fording- point." So the um
pire ordered the play to proceed with
the .core 40-30 in Miss Campbell's fa
vor. .
"Then the gallery let loose with
cheer upon cheer. The next play
deuced it. and when Miss Campbell
won two plays later in a smashing
drive, the former applause was dimmed
and the gamest little sport that ever
wielded a racquet was cheered as
though she had Just tilted the ball
over the fence in the ninth Inning with
the score tied and a Sunday ; crowd
out. By defeating the champion of
Oregon and Western Washington, Miss
Campbell earned the right to contest
with Miss Sutton, the greatest of the
great an honor that Miss Fording said
she'd 'rather have than the Oregon
championship.' It Is hoped Miss Camp
bell gets a game or two. As yet no
woman player has got one in the tour
nament." Miss Campbell was defeated by Miss
Sutton 8-0. 6-1.
NOTED CRICKETERS COMLNG
Frankford Team, of Philadelphia, to
Play Portland Eleven.
The Portland Crjcket Club has con
cluded arrangements with the Frankford
Cricket Club, of Philadelphia, to visit
Portland to play two games, the first
week in September. The visiting team
is one of the strongest clubs In America,
coming from Philadelphia, the home of
cricket In the Unjted States.
Although the standard of cricket is
much higher In the East than in the
West, the visiting team may have no
walkover. Portland has a strong cluh.
but is handicapped because game are
not played regularly. Few outside
matches are played Seattle. 1 miles
away, being the nearest club. This fact
makes players lack confidence when op
posing strange bowling.
The visitors will play Victoria, Van
couver, Seattle and Portland on the trip.
Regular practice will be held three
times a week from now on. Practically
the best eleven from the local club will
be available for both matches.
The Frankford players in their last
match with the Germantown Club, of
Philadelphia, conceded to be one of the
beat In America, won by 25 runs.
MULTNOMAH GATHERS TEAM
Efforts Made to Send Athletes; to
Astoria Championships.
Jack Hickson, manager of the pro
posed team that will represent the
Multnomah Club in the coming Pacific
Coast championship track meet' at As
toria, is having a hard time trying to
get together a sufficient -number of
athletes to make the trip. Most of the
stars of the Portland club are out oC
training, and fear that they cannot get
into fit condition has caused a number
to balk at the prospects of entering
and making a miserable showing.
Hickson has been out of town on
personal business, for the past few
days, but Is expected to whip the team
in line thi week. Dow Walker says
that Multnomah will be represented
even if he has to send but three or four
men.
It is practically certain that Haw
kins, Multnomah's star in the hurdles,
and Wolff, the weight-thrower, will be
on the job, and Dick Grant and Baker,
the Corvallia sprinter, have declared
their willingness to enter. Edwin Mc
Kee. Dan Kelly aad Bill Neil,' the Javelin-thrower,
may be on hand.
The citv of Moscow, bv government ari
thorlration, has raised a loan of 812.500,000
from a group of Russian banks. Of tbls
sum 84.700.OOA has been allotted to the
extension of th local electric tramway system.
