LOS ANGELES. Oct. 28. (Special.)
The Vernon pennant contenders lost
their scant hold on first place in the
Pacific Coast League today by dropping
the first game of a double header to
Portland the first victory of the series
for the visitors.
The second same, which went only
five innings, was easy for Vernon, and
the only remaining- chance of bringing
the pennant to Los Angeles ilea In a
double victory tomorrow for Vernon
and an even break or better for Los
Angeles against Oakland.
In the fourth inning of the first game
Portland landed on Stewart for five
hits, which with the aid of a walk and
a double steal by Bancroft and Fisher
gave the visitors five runs. Raleigh re
placed Stewart, but the damage had
been done, as the locals were unable to
do anything with Hlgginbotham's
curves. Although playing a ragged
game in the Infield, Portland's outfield
ers played sensational ball.
Cunningham, the San Francisco boy
recruited by McCredle, starred with two
sensational catches of what would have
been extra base hits, and his batting
also was a feature.
Koestner, who pitched the second
game for Portland, was batted all over
the lot, while Hitt held the visitors
runless for the five Innings that were
played. The game served to boost the
batting averages of the Vernon players,
as all except two men batted more than
.300 and three had perfect averages for
the game. A total of 14 hits was made
off Koestner, four of which were two
baggers. Scores:

double header here today, entering the
home stretch with a lead slightly less

score was 2 to 0, the game .having
been called in the seventh because of
darkness. Oakland made a neat clean,
up of the opening contest by a score
of 10 to 0, If Vernon wins two games

today left the percentage of that team
.58291. Oakland's percentage Is .58706.
Oakland took the opening game by

reached third on Abbott's sacrifice, and
came .home on Coy's single. The other

COAST FINISH CLOSE
Portland's Victory May Cost
Vernon Pennant.
OAKLAND'S MARGIN SLIGHT
Angels Must Take One Game Today
and Beavers Drop Both to Give
Former Leader Its Hold
on Championship.
.i . '
Portland cheated Vernon out of the
Coast League pennant in 1811, and the
breaking even in yesterday's unex
pected double-header seems to have
applied the strangle hold again. Oak
land, by virtue of a double victory over
Loa Angeles, chased Vernon back out
of the lead by a trifle over one-half a
game. . (
Double-headers will be billed by both
contending clubs today, winding up a
remarkable finish. The edge is Oak
land's this morning without a question.
Vernon's chance is to defeat Portland
In both games today and to have Los
Angeles wallop Oakland once. If the
Oaks win both games from the Angels,
Vernon cannot overtake them.
If Vernon, wins two games, the morn
ing affair in the little Vernon park and
the afternoon at Washington park in
non will finish on top of the heap as
follows:
W. L. P.C.
Vernon 117 -682
Oakland 118 85 .681
Summing it up, Oakland appears to
have all the odds on the morn of the
crucial day.
SQTJASH TOTJKNET IS PROMISED
Multnomah Clnb Enthusiasts Plan
to Stage Northwest Meet.
Squash will have its innings in Port
land this Winter. Hamilton Corbett is
planning an open city tourney to start
within a week or two at Multnomah
Club, to be fonowedby a Paciflo North
west championship 'tourney. In addi
tion he proposes to stage a handicap
competition after the players are
ranked in the open meet.
Squash Is becoming a popular game
with many of the Multnomah Club
members, and while it is played little
In other Northwestern clubs, matches
with rival organizations are hoped for
1913.
Dates for the coming tourney will
be deolded at the next meeting of the
club board.
Aquatic Notes.
The annual eleeton of officers of the
Portland Bowing Club will be held
Monday, November II at the clubhouse.
Following the election, further plans
for the season will be on the boards for
discussion.
The first of the Winter series of
dances was held by the Portland Row
ing Club members Friday night. The
affair was strictly an invitational affair
and as a result the floor was not as
crowded as has been the case through
the greater part of the Summer.
At a meeting of the board of direct
ors of the Bowing Club, Tuesday night,
two new boats, a lapstreak and la train
ing boat, were ordered for Immediate
construction. The board also placed an
order for over a dozen pairs of oars,
which will come all the way from England.

With only this present uncompleted
series to. figure in the year'B Coast
League statistics, the batting and
pitching leaderships' are practically
sure. Del Howard, of San Franoisco,
has the batting crowd, with Matty Mc

Daley, of Los Angeles, next In order.
Heine Heitmuller's death left the big,
lion-hearted Dutchman- at .338.
Heinle Heitmuller led the league last
Fall with .842, so the new rubber-cored
ball evidently didn't slow up the bat
ters any, as Howard's record is .862
and Mclntyre's .849.
KIHUay, of Oakland, and Leverens,
of Los Angeles, will likely finish the
year as the leading pitchers. Harry
Abies is one twirler who Is not up to

down below the winning record of his
club, the Oaks.

chairman, and Arthur Cavlll, swimming
Instructor, at Multnomah Club.
The Winged "M" men who are ex

Mankurts. Thomas Is rated as the best
In the 100 and 220-yard events, with
Mankurtz leader In the 440 and 880
yard swims. Reld is another long dls
tanoe prospective champion, while
Frank Klernan is picked to carry off
honors in the Junior events.
Colllster Wheeler and Norman Ross,
distance men, and Johnny McMurray,
sprinter, are the most formidable of

Sporting Sparks
JOHNNY COULON Is still tne tecn
nlcal bantamweight fistic champion,
but the honor Is an empty one. Kid
Williams, Baltimore, a newcomer among
the championship aspirants, is the lad
who Is the real top of the division. He
outpointed Coulon In a 10-round go at
New York not long ago. It required a
referee's decision or a knockout for
Williams to win.
Heinle Zimmerman, the Chicago Cub
slugger who led the National Leaguers
during the season Just ended, also
topped the batters of the Chicago city
series, with a bat average of .484.
Easterly hit safely eight times In 10
trips to the bat but he figured in only
five games, against nine for Zimmer
man. August Belmont is again talking
about the prospects of a racing revival
In New York. A recent Judicial .de
cision rules that racing associations
could not be held responsible for bet
ting on their premises without Its
knowledge. Belmost favors the French
mutual form of betting.
e
John Paul Jones, holder, of the
world's amateur one-mile title, predicts
that he will be defeated next Spring by
Norman Tabor, of Brown University.
Jones says that Tabor is the greatest
runner in the world at the mile.
"When that fellow learns to run as
be should run you won't hear any more
about any Joneses, Klviats. or Jack
sons," says Jones.
Unprecedented procedure was per.
mltted in the Supreme Court of the Uni
ted States during the world's series.
Bulletins of the results by Innings were
passed to the Justices, Associate Justice
Day being the most enthuslastlo of the
fans.
"Snodgrass will live as doer of great
est deed in series," ran a New York
headline after "Snoddy's" wonderful
catch which stopped a Boston rally and
gave the Giants a chance to win the
world's series. However, that was be
fore the same "Snoddy" had handed the
series, and about 830,000. to Boston, by
dropping that fly In the 10th inning of
the last game.
The umpires were treated well by the
National commission after the world's
series, instead of the 1750 originally
fixed for each cf the four arbitrators.

Frank Gutterson's running broad
Jump intersoholastlc record of 28 feet
64 inches, made at the New Eng
land Interscholastic championships last
Spring, has been allowed. The delay
was caused by assertions that Gutter
son's shoulder, and not his - heel,
touched the ground, also that the prop

The protests were brushed aside by the
amateur officials,

Clark Griffith, manager of the Wash
ington Nationals, has signed a Cuban
outfielder named Jacinto Calco for 1918.
The Cuban says he Is the scion of a
titled Spanish family. Griffith had two
Cubans, Marsans and Almeida, with his
Cincinnati club, and the former made
good.

. Frank Erne is said to be the hand
somest ex-boxer. Unlike the average
retired scrapper Erne bears not a mark
of his ring combats, is well-groomed,
and Is not much heavier than when he
was champion lightweight of the world.
Young Corbett, ex-featherwelght fis
tic champion, refereed a bouf In New
York the other night from outside of
the ropes. The EngllBh style of refer
eelng did not make a hit with the fami
as the boxers refused to separate from
clinches until five second after Cor
bett had ordered them to.

Artie Wenzel, a California fan, says
that BUI Jams, the Seattle pitcher sold
to Boston, has almost as much "smoke
as Joe Wood, has a better hop, and -In
addition has a spltter which will make
him a better pitcher than the Boston
marvel.
Ollle Nicholson, the outfielder of the
Salem club, of the Frankfort Blue Grass
League, who stole 108 bases In 116
games, did not last long at Pittsburg.
The Pirates gave him a tryout but soon
shipped him home.
e
Eddie Mensor says that base-stealing
In the Northwestern and National
Leagues are different propositions.
However, Eddie showed the Pirate fans
a nice turn of speed on the paths until
he sprained his ankle.
