BY RALPH J. STAEHLI.
Freddy Frambach. the Idaho wonder,
and heralded as the "second Walter
Johnson," did the work tor the Port
land Colts yesterday. He pitched a
good same, allowing but six hits, but
the tide of errors, of which Portland
made six, really robbed him of a vic
tory. The final score was: Tacoma 6,
Portland 3.
It was the second act of "The Com
edy of Errors." It started In the first
winning, when Fries got to first on
McKune's error and waB advanced when
Gulghi's gumdrop play allowed Mc
mullen to get safe.
Along came Neighbors with a double
Backer and brought them waltzing in.
...Another run occurred in the fifth. West
was hit by Frambach and stole seaond.
He made good on Fries' fly.
Frambach's one bad inning was the
eventh. He got a bit nervous and
walked West, who was i-xfe on second
when Murray let one go. Million scored
him with a hit. The later was brought
in by McMulien's double, and Fries,
.who had walked, got In on the same
one. .-
The double was more or less of a
scorer's problem, as. it rolled all over
the outfield and Fries had to come all
the way from first.
Things went better in the eighth and
ninth. 3romley had replaced Fram
bach. True he walked two more, but
. an equal number of strike-outs and
easily handled bingles kept the Tigers
off the sacred rubber for the remain
der of the afternoon.
Girot, on the other side, had the
Colts pretty well tethered. The stake
pulled out in the sixth, when four of
the eight hits gave Portland, its en
tire batch of runs.
This was in spite of two strike-outs
in the same round. Terry McKune, one
of the Colts' stars, started, the lineup
with a hit. Callahan fanned and Mel
chior followed with a hit
On hits, Portland again should have
had the best of the argument, for the
Nick Williams aggregation again clout
ed the Tigers for the majority. Eight
were garnered. The Tigers again meet
the Colts today, the last time for two
months. The score:

M'CREDIE LOSES EVAX EVANS
Xew Orleans Let Youngter Go to
Cleveland Sheks.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.. May 23.
(Special.) The latest official bulletin
issued by Secretary Farrell contains
the news that Evan Evans has been
released by purchase to the Cleveland
Association . Club by - New Orleans.
Evans is the' young eft hander Waiter
McCredie was angling for to strengthen
up the Beavers' pitching force. Fact is,
Walter had figured that if the pitcher
could be secured from the Southern
League he would come to the Coast.
Cleveland is under obligations to Port
land, but the association club has been
going so badly that President Somers
evidently thought that he would
bolster up that team and let Port
land wait.
McCredie declares that he is pretty
well fortified as it is In the pitching
box.' Krause, West, Higginbotham,
Reiger and Martinonl have been going
pretty good and figure to hold up the
Beavers in the hurling line with such
a batch of hitters at their backs.

order to get these he has had to make
drives that occasioned comment. So
far as Seattle is concerned, there has
not been a home run made this season
either on a hit Inside the lot or by a
drive over the right-field fence.
Swain's first four-baser was made
in Spokane over the left-field fence,
something entirely out of the ordi
nary. Hia second was- a loft over the
left-field fence in Vancouver last
Wednesday, the. second; tlme ; it- has
been accomplished In the history of the
park. Swain will be lucky if he plucks
10 homers this year, quite a come-down
from 39 In 1913.
The change in his fortune is not en-,
tirely due to the larger neld on which
Seattle is playing.. A year ago he was
a member of the Victoria club, and
his average long drive to center would
clear the boards for a homer. He not
only had t.ie facilities of the Victoria
grounds, but Seattle as well to run up
his count- Now he plays few games in
Victoria, which cuts down his average,
and no matter how far he drives to left
in Seattle the chances are decidedly
against his making the circuit. He has
not. lost his driving power, because in
one game he lambasted the ball against
the front of the left field bleacners,
and on two other occasions put It al
most to the score board in left, only to
have Fries, of Tacoma. catch the "Jail
both times. Under last year's condi
tions Swain would be well on his way
to another year of numerous home
runs.
. .
The mystery of Seattle's continued
downfall in Vancouver remains as deep
aS ever. If there was a wide difference
in the playing ability of the two teams
there would be no chance for a discus
sion. Taking them man for man, how
ever, neither side has enough edge to
warrant odds In betting. Yet any per
son who has followed the history of
the present Northwestern League could
have cleaned up a bunch of money by
following Vancouver every day when
Seattle played there. On several occa
sions Dugdale's team has left for Van
couver with players and pitchers on
edge, and prospects bright. By the
end of the week the fans were wonder
ing what had happened to the team.
We have had numerous changes, some
of which might be figured to bring a
change in luck, but somehow or other
they do not.
.
Carll Lewis, secretary of the Seattle
Tennis Club, says candidly that it does
not laok as If Seattle would show any
thing surprising in tennis this coming
season. . So far there has' been com
paratively little practice. Enthusiasm
appears to be lacking. It would be my
guess that W. A. McBurney will be the
leading player In Seattle this year. He
was out of condition in 1913, but it will
be a different story In' the coming
Washington state tournament. I doubt
much if Sam Russell takes the measure
of the former Spokane star this year,
although there is plenty of time for
Russell to come. .
There is no end of tennis, such as it
Is, being played throughout Seattle,
and there will be no trouble securing
entries for the state tourney.

PARK CALLED GOLD
New Home of Seals Out Where
Ocean Breezes Kick Up.
OPENING DAY CHILLY ONE
Owners Have Jobs on Their Hands
Counteracting Impression That
Ewing Field Is in San
Francisco Frigid Zone.
SAN FRANCISCO. May 23. (Special.)
The opening of San Francisco's new
baseball park. Ewing Field, has come
and gone and now the owners are hav
ing something of a job on their hands
counteracting the impression that has
gone forth to the effect that the new
park is decidedly cold.
Recreation -Park, on Valencia street,
is located in what is known as the
Mission warm belt and while there
were bitter cold days, still it was warm
out there. If anywhere. The new
grounds are further toward the ocean,
where the breezes kick up about as
they please and to make it worse.
opening day, last Saturday and the
following Sunday, were just about as
cold days as San Francisco ever ex
perlences.
Naturally the big crowds are going
to remember -their reception at the
hands of the weather. They are already
doing considerable talking, and Messrs,
Ewing and Ish will have to make
soma arguments to head off the in
jury that would otherwise be done the
new home of the Seals.
So far as conveniences are concerned,
Ewing Field Is all that could be de
sired. It has a capacity of 18,000. Be
cause the owners have taken their time,
the grass not onlr of the infield, but of
the outfied as well is In good shape.
Opening day was a corker and noth
ing like it has been seen in this city.
To begin with, there was a banquet at
the Palace Hotel, at which there were
600 boosters. Then came an automo
bile parade and finally the game itself.
The stands were practically crowded to
capacity and the only drawback was
the fact that the Seals lost out. a habit
they seem to have contracted for state
occasions.
The new park is modeled after the
Oakland grounds. Special efforts have
been made to handling the crowds, both
in entering the park and getting them
away in a hurry.
The Geary Street or Municipal Rail
road la the only one with cars to the
doors of the new park and the Mu
nicipal road is by no means situated
to handle all the traffic.

NEW IPS" If! SIGHT
ED ERICKSOK APPLIES TO FIELDER
JOTOS FOR INDICATOR. JOB,
McGlnnlty, Suspended, Uoes on Scomtlag
Trip Hoy Brown Dae to Join
Nick's Colts This Morning.
Still another change in Northwest
ern League umpires may be expected.
Ed Erickson, former Vancouver player
and later with Salt Lake, of the Union
Association, was in the city yesterday
and it is known that he applied to
Fielder Jones for a position as indi
cator holder.
Erickson has held the count on bat
ters several times in his baseball ca
reer. He is not particularly young and
deserted the playing end of the game
this Spring, after Northern scribes had
him hooked up with McGlnnity and the
Tacoma Tigers.
Erickson is now a retired farmer at
Redmond. Or. He will have another
conference with President Fielder
Jones today. The outcome may mean
another umpire for the Northwest cir
cuit. Manager McGinnlty, under suspension
for his run-in with ex-Umpire Shuster,
was not with the team yesterday, nor
In Portland.
He will make the suspension a scout
ing trip and will join the team later in
Tacoma.
Roy Brown, one of the Beaver pitch
ers, will join the Colts this morning.
Brown had to make room for some of
McCredie's new acquisitions and will
be with Nick Williams for a while.
Nick will dp some more trimming in
a few days, but where the ax will alight
will not be known until after Nick gets
on the road.
.
The suspension of his catcher Is the
reason Bill James has not been retch
ing much of late, according to a letter
from Bill to a Portland friend. He has
been pitching good ball and expects to
have a regular due-day from now on.
He ought to make one of his appear
ances tomorrow.
