BT ROSCOE FAWCETT With no fewer than four mighty rallies Portland defeated Oakland yes terday ( to S In trie ninth Inning; Of a game which for thrllla and sensations has seldom been eclipsed In thia or any other portion of the hemisphere. Not a feature, not a lineament, not a wrinkle waa missing. Portland used three pitchers Gilllgan. Stelger and Temple; Oakland two Durbln and Gregory. Portland tied the score In the second Inning on a terrific homer over the right wall br Howler. 2 to I: added two more In the sixth Inning: went bark into a deadlock In the aeventh. when Gilllgan and Stelger were rail roaded from the mound: rent the air with paroxyros of Joy when Temple kmScked the ball out of the lot on the first ball pitched In the eighth, bringing the (core to B to 4: slipped hack Into the cavern of semi-despair when the Oaks tied the tally a moment later after Tledemann's double and it's worth another paragraph to tell how Rodgers got around to third base In the last half of the ninth, after being walked by Gregory and how . t'hadbourne pronged a liner Into left field, which Issy Hoffman plucked out of the graas blades. Juggled for a mo ment and then dropped, scoring Rod gers and sending 6000 frothing fans hark Into common-place citizenship again. Pltrber Temple tbe Hera. It mas not a narrow, shrunken affair at all. It shone with climaxes: It vi brated with life; It certainly was no place for a nervous person. And If jou had asked any of those common place citizens going home to common place suppers after the soiree some more common-placa than other who was the chewer of the laurel cud. even the persistent man with the rheumatic ailments would have been galvanized Into action. Pitcher Temple was tha hero. Sure. ' Southpaw Stelgar was the honorable mention man a couple of days ago when he stopped the rushing Oaks. But yesterday It took about four ticks of time to send Stelger back to the showerbaths with his head aching from the temporary gilded crown. The score stood 4 to S for Portland at the start of that terrific seventh Inning, with OUIIgan flinging cool and deliberate ball. After two were down, however, three men singled In a row and filled the bases. The throbbing bugs were then treated to an exhibition of how to win ball games. Coy walk ing and forcing in Durbln. McCredle then ran out upon the sward and asked Gilllgan to make himself look like a departing pitcher and "Lefty" Stelger was sent to tbe salvation of his coun trymen. Stelger pitched Just four balls, or perhaps we should have said, four too many, for Patterson also trotted to first. Leard pattered home with the tying score. 4 to 4. while Stelger swerved off to the rathskeller In favor of Big Bill Temple. First Oae tabbed for a Homer. Temple disposed of the third man with much celerity and as fate psycho logically willed It. Temple was the first man at bat in the latter portion of the Inning. Gregory had Just sup planted Durbln as server of the slants. Gregory didn't even get a chance to whiz one by the big batsman. tor Temple slammed the first ball over the deep, right field fence for the second homer, once again sending a wild wave of Joy rippling over the gathering. This mighty swat put Portland back Into the lead again. 5 to 4. But the fighting Oaks were up and coming and they added another saw to the see-saw controversy In the eighth Inning on a double by Tiedeman Into left, an infield hit and a fielders' choice that might have ended In a double play with more peppery field work. Such was the situation In the last of the ninth when Rodgers. as first man up. walked and wormed Ms way around the hassocks for the winning tally on Chadbourne's drive with two men al ready out. Seme Mara Spire Is Added. Kor fear the parsimonious person who spared 5 cents to occupy a grand stand seat might not be satisfied. Catcher in Howley. Bill Rapps and Shortstop Butler all added spice to tha fracas. Indeed Southpaw Durbln. lata of Toreka. In the Western League, la about as fond of Howley today as ona lartender Is of another after he has endeavored to one hls( skull as an opener. The Oaks had grabbed two tallies In the first Inning off Gilllgan. both crossing when Pitcher "Jawn" miaeed a third out throw at first by liappe. Then In the second Point walkrd and bardly had Howley taken his position at the plate than he whanged the horsehlde over the right field fence, sending Doane ahead of him and evening the score. Butler. K nicer r and Rapps figured In Portland's next two tallies in tha sixth. Hurler doubling to left, scoring on Kruegrr's single and Krueger reg istering on Rapps' fierce wallop down the left field line. Rapps secured three hits In four times up. Butler and Chad bourne two apiece. Hoffman and Tle.lemann were the batting stars for Oakland.

Temple gets credit fur the victory and Gregory for the defeat. Bud Sharpe has Instructed his bat ters to hit popups In the Infield here after when Temple takes the mound, lie figures that with Bill Rapps on first. Bill P.odgers on second. Bill But ler at short. Bill Lindsay at thiil and Bill Templj In the box. they're bound to make a mess of It when Captain Rodgers yells "Take r Bill." Catcher Howley starred both at the bat and In the field yesterday. In the fourth Inning a wonderful throw on a puny grounder r.abbed Patterson at I flr?t and In the sixth he nipped s rally by making a grand catch of Coy's foul up against the grandstsnd near the press box. The standing for the series Is two games apiece and a record crowd likely will witness the rubber-game today. The same situation existed a week ago, but 8n Francisco walked away with the final game. Shortstop Cook muffed Doane's fly In the eighth Inning, but fortunately for him Kappa was on first, so his re tirement at second saved an error. Pitcher Gilllgan was humming along In great shape when he struck his snag In tbe seventh Inning. I'p to that time the Oaks had secured .but five scat tered blngles. Gilllgan. like Speck Harkness. needs warm weather to put the finishing touches on his throwing wing. Gua Hetllng Is playing a fine game at third for the visitors. Tledemann didn't allow a man to steal on him yesterday. He nabbed Doane, one of the fastest men In the league by 10 feet. Pitcher Klawltter. the New Orleans recruit, arrived yesterday -wllh his week-did bride, to Join the Portland team. He Is a chunky lad. built some thing on the order of Heinle Steiger. He Is a right-hander. SACRAMIvXTO WINS, 1 0 TO 1 Williams Is Mystery to Los Angeles In Final of Series. lJOS ANGELES. April 27.

UNTIL Aggregation Representing Oregon "Brares," In Xew 'Vnlforma, Makes Inglorious Hebut in Tour Through Country. Sporting a oompleta new outfit of diamond regalia, but mlnua praotlcally everything that goes to make up a respectable baseball aggregation, the Chinook Indians, who will tour the oountry representing Oregon, made an Inglorloua debut In Portland yesterday afternoon, losing to Multnomah Club 17 to The game was a farcical 17-0 prac tice for the clubmen until the ninth frame, with the Reds held in such low esteem that the Infield waa populated with bench warmers In the final rounds. In the last period Southpaw Douglas, who held the Invaders to three swats In eight-ninths of the session, suddenly weakened, passed three men and per mitted the war-whoopers to connect for four safe drives and eight of the nine uniformed duskies made the round of the circuit. Lark ef Practice Cause. Captain Teabo, the old-time Chema wa baseball and football star, said after the game that the team had no prac tice before the tussle, despite reports that the squad had been together for several weeks In training. The play of the majority of the prospective tour ists demonstrated either this or a piti ful ignorance of the game. In the stage fright periods Teabo. whose offerings were decidedly non-deceptive, waa tha only man capable of handling the ball, while Shortstop "Levi" Sartor's work was so heinous that he was given a big hand br the mlttful of spectators when he succeeded In nabbing- the ball. The sacrifice was the only thing attempted bordering on that brand of ball labeled "inside." The clubmen, fearful of the highly touted braves, started In" to ice the bout in the opening period, five runs crossing the plate before Douglas, the last of Uie nine to face "Chief Teabo. retired without hitting the ball. Tha second and fifth proved disastrous to the visitors, with three tallies each for the Winged "M" supporters, while the sixth. In which the suba were in troduced, kept the outfielders scurry ing about like rabbits and Morris' men marathonlng about the paths to the tuna of alx reglstratlona. Meld Resembles War Ranee. The Chlnookera had the cigar store brand of red discounted for stoicism until the ninth period, but the flood gates were loosened and Multnomah Field took on the appearance of a war dance celebration. The Indians expect two new pitchers to report at Vancouver, where they play today. Darnell and Roland Charlie, former Chemawans. are tho moundmen who are expected to relieve Teabo on the proposed tour of the country. The Reds play at Chehalls Monday and Centralia Tuesday. They have game, scheduled with Victoria and Vancouver. H. C. while the advance man expects to lay out a schedule tak ing In all prominent cities of the Middle est and ESKt.

HIS HITTING WELL LIKED Toledo Recruit Handles . Himself Well at Infield Position and Proves He Can Hammer In Runs When Necessary. If ever the Portland Coast League baseball team needed reinforcements last week was the psychological t.me. Local fandom, therefore, bad the smile of welcome for Willis Butler, the new lnfielder from the Toledo club of the American Association, when he Jumped into the short patch niche last Friday. To show that the confidence of the fans was not at all misplaced, Butler proceeded to knock out three hits, one of which, in the 10th inning, drove In the winning run of a nerve-wracking contest. Butler has been playing ball for nearly eight years, although yef less than 25 years old. His experience dates back to 1905, when he started out with Ashtabula. Ohio, In the little Trolley League, as a second aacker. Experience Seven Years. Since then his pedigree sizes up as follows: " 1906 Akron, Ohio. 1807 St. Louis Americans. 1908-1809 Nashville, Tenn. 1910-1911 Toledo, Ohio. In all these years Butler has always been regarded as a good hitter. The year he was with St. Louis he batted .262 at second base, which was good in those days before the cork-centered ball made its appearance. Last season at Toledo as a shortstop he batted .268, despite injuries Jo his shoulder which nearly put him completely to the bad. The first year Butler played at Nash ville in the Southern League, the Tennessee- club won the pennant with a percentage of .672. After two seasons there Cleveland secured him and turned him over to Toledo in the American As sociation, another than Class A league. Base Running Record Good. Butler stood second In the American Association that season in stolen bases with nearly 50 to his credit. "And I was out nearly six- weeks, too," adds the ex-Toledo shortstikp- Altlzer, of Minneapolis, was the chief pilferer. Un til his repurchase by Cleveland and Im mediate transfer to the slipping Port land club. Butler held down the third sack for the Mud Hens. "I have always wanted to come west to see the country and am glad to be here with Portland. I think I can make good all right," says he. Butler is a married man of five years standing and has a boy 3 years old who will not be a ball player, says papa Willis stands six feet tall, weighs 168 pounds, throws underhanded, lives at Franklin, Pa and Is an American citi zen. r PORTLAND ACADEMY WIXXER Forest Grove High School Xine Is Loser, 12 to 6.

At Spokane Spokane 4, Vanoouver 1. TACOMA. Wash., April 27. Pitcher Veasey, of the Portland Colts, today gave an exhibition of how a one-hit game may bo turned into defeat. He lost through a break of luck which favored the Tigers. He might have been given credit for. a no-htt game, but In Justice to Gordon, the Tacoma pitcher should be credited with a hit In the fifth inning. It was a scratch hit, to be sure, but a hit, nevertheless. The ball was knocked down by Mathes with his bare hand, but he could not field It In time. The Portland bunch pulled hard for a no hit game, but there wag no chance to call it such. Tacoma grabbed the game in the fifth inning, when Veasey and Mathes went up in the air trying to handle a series of bunts. Gordon Btarted the inning with his scratch single. Yohe laid down a bunt. Mathes failed to handle the throw and the runner was safe. Nill bunted. Mathes tried to throw Gordon out at third, but hurled the ball to the fence, Gordon and Yohe counting. That was the game. 'Speae Makes Thrilling Throw. But for Speas' wonderful throw from center field, the Tigers might have got another, but Nill was caught at the plate when Speas made a perfect throw from the outfield after catch ing Neighbor's fly. Portland had its lone run presented to It, so honors were even. Mensor was given a base on balls In the third inning. He stole second and came on home when Crit tenden chucked the ball to center field in an attempt to catch the fleet-footed Pippin. No one could call this afternoon's ex hibition a presentaiion of high-class baseball, but it was one of those games which keep the hearts of the specta tors in their mouths the greater part of the time. Buss Hall, who has been in baseball so long that he hardly re membera when he started, was as -nervous as a cat in the last few Innings and he was pulling for the Tigers to hold back the Colts. . Tigers Get Scare. The Tigers' support got an awful fright in the ninth Inning. With one down and Fries on first a screamer was knocked down the third base line by Strait. It looked like a sure enough double and Fries had crossed the plate, when Umpire Van Haltren called it a foul. Strait struck out and Mathes hit Into a double play and the agony was over.

Riordan, of Vancouver, Wash., Elected President of the Associated Students. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON, Se attle. April 28. (Special.) Seven hun dred open-mouthed, bewildered freshles witnessed their first big Washington political campaign and election, crammed into a few hours, and went through the experience of being pat ronised and petted by upper classmen, when they voted for officers who next year will handle the 180,000-a-year business of the A. S. U. W., the stu dent corporation. Raucous-voiced ward-heelers lined every approach to the polls, and five or six of them would grab a voter by the arms, while- another member of the clique would extol the virtues of theit particular candidate. The political workers vied with each other In their praise of the "best man," some handing out a line of talk that sent the crowds away laughing and good-natured, and others appealing to the serious side. "Aw! Vote for Jones. Jones the poor man's friend. He gives the com mon people a chance," could be heard on one side, while at the poor freshie'? other elbow some one would be saying suavely, "Cast your ballot for Smith. He thinks on his feet and thinks right. They can't give a -reason why you shouldn't vote for Smith." The new ruling made by the board of control eliminated the colored, sensa tional printed propaganda that fea tured last season's election, but the politicians came back at the recent election and distributed chocolate, ci gars and "treats" to gain he desired support. The Defeated Candidates' Club made out the following rules which were to be enforced during the election. "Chagrined ward-heelers may not mutilate recalcitrant voters. It is the recognized right of every man that he shall have personal opinions." "Professors, who pass the polling place, shall be treated as human be ings." "The supporters of one candidate may not detain a voter more than one hour. This applies to moral suasion as well as physical force." "Every 16 minutes the highways leading to the polling place shall be cleared of ward-heelers to prevent con gestion of voters." Jerry l. Riordan. of Vancouver, Wash., was elected president of the as sociated students by a majority of 758 votes, over Clifford Newton, his only op ponent. In his position as president of the student body.
