TEAMWORK MOST NOTABLE Waverly Pint to Score When Hamil ton Oorbctt Put Over tioal. Two Minutes After Game Started. Final Score 1 to 3 1-4. BY RALPH J. STA KH LI. Excellent teamwork combined with I the Individual play of Captain Chap lin and one or two others helped me Vancouver (B. C.) poloists put over a brilliant victory yesterday afternoon on the Waverly grounds with the Portland Blues losing;, score 7 to 3V. Just as Hamilton Corbett stands out of the Waverly mass so Captain Chap lin figure.- with the Vancouver men. He is a wonderful rider and plays with fury and skill that wastes few Rhots. It was his picking; out that led to the Vancouver points time ana time again. The other members of the team played well up to their star. His leads always were taken advantage of and there were few times when he could not turn the ball over to a following player. Waverly was first to score when Hamilton Corbett put over a goal two minutes after the game started. Tills he picked out In his characteristic way and carried it well down the field with three accurate drives. After five mlnuteR of play. K. O. Snowden, of the Vancouver team, put over one after a mass play In which the entire squad figured. Just before time was called in the first period. Gordon Voorhles scored, following another mass play in which both teams did considerable plashing. The period ended with the score. Wa verly 2. Vancou-fer 1. Groavenor'a Drive True. At the start of the second, Grosvenor landed a lnnK shot squarely between the posts and tied the score. But a minute later Sherman Hall had taken one away from the Vancouver men and made It count. The period ended with Waverly again in the lead, 3 to -. Then in the third Vancouver estab lished the lead which it kept through out the game. Snowden and Grosvenor both scored and the time allotment finished with Vancouver leading, 4 to 3. In the fourth Waverlv was In trou PLAYERS' FRATERNITY IS DECLARED DOOMED Story of Naps Taking Clyde Wares, Despised by All Other Teams, Told. Roscoe Fawcett Condemns American Boxers for Being Pikers Abroad. BY ROSCOE FAWCETT. BASEBALL'S recent capitulation to the Players' Fraternity In the case of Clarence Kraft of Brook lyn, leads one to wonder where this tight between the managers and the playvs Is to end. Personally. I haven't a guess as to what the fut,ure will bring, but here's one expert of fame. Fielder A. Jones, former manager of tho Chicago White Sox champions, xvho predicts abject failure for the Fraternity unless it chanRes its tactics. This Fraternity stand In the Kraft case was all right," commented Mr. Jones yesterday. "If a man Is good enough to play in AA leagues he should be given a chance to do so In prefer ence to the lower salaried A leagues. "But." added the Northwestern League president, with a note of warn ing, "the Fraternity will have to change Its tactics and really stand on a fair foundation or It will wreck baseball and Its own structure will go toppling down with the magnates. "The Fraternity should not counte nance contract Jumping. There should be no hemming and hawing about the matter. Any player who breaks faith with his employer ought to be auto matically ousted from the Fraternity and ought never to bo allowed In the ranks of the organisation again." Mr. Jones says baseball Is in a bad tlx all over the Nation because of the activities of the Federal League and of the Players' Fraternity. "Salaries are too high In practically every league in the land," continued the ex-Chlcagoan. "Kven the majors have been going about their salary raising in a haphaxard manner and there will have to be some sort of a readjustment before long. "I dare say the Pacific Coast League Is paying double the salary total to Its teams that It was five years ago. I don't see how these teams are going to get by this bad season without big losses." e ACCORDING to Ed. A. Goewey In Leslie's Weekly, only the refusal of Cleveland to waive on Clyde Waras kept -the little Infielder from returning to the Oakland club of tha Coast League this Summer. During the Spring series Wares showed little batting strength and Branch Rickey, manager of the St. Louis Browns, decided to let him go to Devlin. Every club In the league waived ex cept the Naps and this wobbling out fit offered quick cash for him and Rickey decided to retain the ex-Coaster. Now he Is doing sensational work at short for the Browns and could not be bought for $5000. Too many youngsters are sent back to the minors without sufficient trial, because the managers don't care to Jar up their lineups. We can mention half a dosen cases here in the Pa cific Coast League. ass WHEN England took the relay race, the golf and the polo champion, ships away from us things began to look rather Indigo, and, the loss of the lightweight boxing title to a Welsh man did not Improve the outlook. But. the future is looking up. With the yacht races, the Davis cup tennis competitions and billiards our standard bearers ought to be able to wave a few tattered strands ere the curtain drops for Winter. No one of these is a lead pipe cinch, however, except It be Hoppe'a billiard .seance. Tbe Australians appear most formid no. :n. ble despite Its score. Vancouver was riding: so Cast and pushing the Port land men so hard that Hamilton Cor bett put over a safety to save on threatening score. In that same period Hamilton also was charged up with a half-point for foul riding. Harry Corbett, captain of the Blues, made Waverly'a last score In that period. In the whole time of the last half Waver!) was kept from sending any ball acrors the Vaneonv. r goal, while the vtsltlt g players punc tured the Portland defense for three more scores. Play Fast sad I'urloua. The play In that time furious. Vancouver circled attt wheeled and rallied with Waverly following, yet never able to regain the upper hand. In tho fifth period. Captain Chaplin a riding finally resulted In his making a score himself. That put Waverly still further to the rear and the score was: Vancouver. '; Waverly. 3. In the sixth Grosvenor crossed tha Waverly goal again. Neither team did anything In the seventh, and Vanoouer finished up with another by Chaplin to the last period. Just a few seconds he fore time waa called. Horses la Gaaar. Tn. Vancouver appeared on the field ex ceptionally well mounted with horses that have had polo experience, extend ing. In some Instances, over several years. They seemed to he In the game as much as their riders. The Waverly Whites will meet the Vancouver team SI Monday afternoon in the last game or-the series, as tha Vancouver men practically have agreed to ship their ponies back on Tuesday morning, discounting the possibilities of a third game. "Vancouver has a wonderful team " declared Victor Johnson, chairman of the Waverly polo committee, at tha finish of yesterdav's game. The plsv. era are real gentlemen, and the ex hlhitlon today was nothing hut of the cleanest type of polo and with all pos sible action In every minute" The lineup: Vancouver. Waverly White F. J.

Every one of them squealed and welched about the decision. Ritchie was the gamest of them all. Willie said he ought have had a draw but ho gave Welsh full credit for his great fight. But the other two would make a man sick. Moran waa licked to a fraiale but he kicked and fussed about the deci sion and capped this off by going over to London and "exposing Johnson aa a faker. Smith, too, raised a hulla baloo at his defeat, although experts who witnessed the fight said he fouled Carpentler not once but several times. Not one of tho three, come down to cases, took his medicine like a man. Each had his howl about hla particu lar decision. All of which Is common practice In this country but It puts America in the role of a piker when Its representatives abroad pull that sort of unsportsmanlike bunk. If our boxers are not willing to ac cept the decisions they had better re main out of the ring. They nre get ting to be like that other great squealer, Gllmour Doble. a JCDOE Thomas F. Graham, former president of the Pacific Coast League, Is the author of an Interesting baseball contribution In tha August number of Sunset magailne. recently taken over by William Woodhaad. Judge Graham's article Is entitled "Putting Over tha Next Big League.' Says Judge Graham In part: "Judging the future by what tba past has given us, baaeball on tha Pacific Coast Is still In the Infancy of Its development. . . . The next step for the league will be Its axpan- -slon Into an elghl-cluh league. At present there are no cities with suffi cient population to support these clubs. "The Pacific Coast league eventual ly will become a major league, with equal standing with tha American ami National leagues. The population la coming, and, a decade hence, that pop ulation will demand baseball In no re spect Inferior to that of their brother fans of the Atlantic seaboard." Judge Graham adds that Walter Mc Credle, of Portland, has sent mora players to the big leagues than any other manager and he goes on and tells how Honug McArdle, former Seal, conspired to keep out of the majors. "Report that he was under tha ayes of the scouts came to McArdle's eara," sayi the Judga. "and In consternation he sought a friend for advice and sym pathy. " 'I don't like to get In had bare.' he mourned, "but I guess I've got to boot a few of the easy ones till these scouts quit. Nona of this big league business for me. I like this league, and I like this town, and I like my Job. And If I'm satisfied they ought to let me alone' ." It sounds nice, but If thata all that keeps the popular Mac out of the ma Jors Ty Cobb's butcher battle Is all that prevents Secretary Bryan from sending the Oeorgla peach to repre sent tue tin its navy at Pans aaBBBBBBBaSSSSSSSSSSSSSBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
