OUT COAST'S BEST
Rodgers, Bancroft, Young

Good to Billy Nea!.
KO RES NOT FAST ENOUGH
Stroud, Also, WIio Goes to Giants,
Believed to Be Bit Too Old to
Stick Flaws of Alexander and
Standridge Xot ricked.
BAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 21. (Special.)
In the opinion of' Billy Neal, of the
Philadelphia Nationals, rated as one of
the keenest, and most conservative
scouts in the country, thertJ were
seven players in the Coast League last
season Who are Qualified and ready to
step into the major leagues. . .Five, of
the number, F.odgers, Bancroft, Young.
Ehmke and Klcpfer, will get an op
portunity, for they already have been
purchased.
Concerning the chances of Stroud ond
Iwores, who go to the Giants; Stand
ridge, who was drafted by. the Cubs,
and Alexander, who was recalled by
the Browns, Neal does not wax so en
. thusiastically.' He thinks that Stroud
is a bit too old to stick up there again
and says that Korea is not speedy
enough.. Neal does not pick out the
Haws in fctandrkige and Alexander,
Of the Coast League's contribution
to fast company, the ivory hunter picks
out "Boy Bob" Ehmke, the young high
school phenom who won eight straight
after joining the Angels, as the best
prospect. He says Ehmke showed him
all kinds of "stuff" and. if the lad
lands with a wise old, head like Clarke
Griffith, of Washington, he shoud de
velop into a winner. Klepfer' s build,
peed and spitter should make him a
valuable man to the White Sox.
Rodgers, who goes to the N8ps;
Young to the Tigers and Bancroft to
the Philies, are pegged because of their
speed. That's what the majors are
looking for, says Neal, and the trio is
composed of speed merchants.
Walter Schmidt is discrtbed as the
best-looking catcher in the minors. His
speed and the finish he displayed behind
the log made a hit with Neal. Walter
recently Jumped to the Kansas City
Federals. Roy Corhan, according tg
the. experienced scout, is the nearest
approach to Joe Tinker he has ever
seen. This is a nice compliment for
the Seal shortstopper. Neal tried hard
to land Roy for the Phillies, but he
was held at too high a figure by the
San Francisco management. At sny
rate, Corhan is now with the St.'
Louis Federals.
Perhaps it is strange to bear a
ballplayer and his ability discussed
during these days when the magnates
and their wranglings hold the stage.
However, Neal has stated his opinion
and his record ebows that he has made
few mistakes in sizing up diamond !
prospects.
"They tell me that I am too con
servative in looking over players." bays
Neal, "but I maintain that if a young
fellow shows his flaws in-the minors
they will stick out like corns up in the
majors. A fellow cannot make many
mistakes up there and stick. I would
rather send up one player who will
stick than pick a dozen who only show j
something but are not quite up to the
mark. This business of securing ball
players costs money and we have to be
careful." ,
"How is it that you have Just fin
ished your most uuecessful year irk
baseball after you have been in the
game for 12 years?" was the question
President Leavitt, of the Oakland club,
fired at Spider Baum shortly .after the
close of the season.
"It's not. hard to explain." was
Baum's reply. fty whole success, or
at least the greatest portion of it, was
at shortstop. It was the first time in
my career of the diamond that I had
a really first-class shortstop behind me.
Any pitcher will tell you that If he
has a capable shortstop and second
baseman behind him he will win 29 per
cent more games tnan 1 his support in
those positions Is weak. A team may
be weak at third or first or in the out
field and get by, but the whole defense
of a club centers around second base.
''Take all the championship clubs of
prominence. The Cubs had Tinker and
Kvers, the Athletics Barry and Collins,
the Giants Fletcher and Doyle, the Red
Sox Heine Wagner and Yerkes, the
Braves Maranville and Evers, and so on
down the line. I think it is the key.
tone of a ball club.
"Corhan played wonderful ball for
us. He cut off hit after hit behind me
aitd I know of several games I would
have lost It had not been for Hoy's
great defensive work."
Spider did have a big year, winning
21 and losing 12 games. He injured hit
knee in the Spring or he undoubtedly
would have Improved his record.
Frank Bancroft, the veteran business
manager of the Cincinnati Reds, places
George Btelllngs on a par with Connie
Mark as a baseball leider.
"There ate only a few cases on record
where the tnanager, as well as the
players. Is entitled to credit," he says.
"I consider Connie Mack the greatest
of , managers, and McGraw and Fred
Clarke are among others who have
shown ability, Stalllngs. by his achieve
ments last season, must be classed
with Connie Mack. We used to laugh
at his methods, but he got results and
w must take off our hats to him.
When we Would hit Boston there would
be SO minutes of batting practice for
the home team and 20 minutes for th
visitors. After the -Braves finished
their practice, Stalllngs would call them
off to the clubhouse and talk for 20
minutes. We thought it was a joke,
but games were won with a team we
did not figure and 1 guess Stalling
knew what he was about."

OFFICERS TO BE NAMED
NEW DIRECTORS OF PORTLASD
GOLF CLUB MEET WEDNESDAY.
Retiring Board Presents Trophy to
Members and It Is Believed Thin -Will
Become Precedent.
Officers of the Portland Golf Club
for the ensuing year will be elected
at a meeting of the new board of direc
tors next Wednesday night. H. L.
Keats, D. A. Pattullo, R. 1L Baldwin
and Sam B. Archer have been men
tioned for the presidency.
Only two new directors for the com
ing year were elected at the recent
meeting, the others having been chosen
when the club was organized. H. L.
Keats and H. H. ' Pearce are the new
members.
Reports from the various chairmen "of
the committee, as well as the retiring
officers, all point to the success during
the first year of the existence of the
Portland Golf Club. The organization
now possesses 171 members, 121 of
whom are active, 30 women, 13 non
resident and seven juniors.
It was decided at the annual meet
ing that the retiring directors present
a handsome silver trophy to the club,
to be known as "the 1914 directors'
cup." This trophy was accepted and
turned over to the tournament commit
tee, which will decide for what it will
be offered. It is thought this precedent
set by the first board will be followed
by succeeding boards.
. More than 76 members attended the
annual meeting. Eighteen men were
nominated for the nine places on the
board. Those elected -were: Sam B.
Archer, D. A. Pattullo. A. G. Mills, I.

MANY GEESE FOUND
Birds by Thousands About Ar
lington, Says Hunter.
MOST SPORTSMEN UJCKY
Deputy Game Warden Ervin sasserts
That Best Duck Lake Is Owned
by Deer Island CInb and
He- Explains Why.
Gray geese by the thousands are to
be found In the district about Arling
ton, Or., according to Arthur F. Nor
ton, representative of a local firm, who
travels in this district. Many Canadi
an honkers also are In evidence. Mr.
Norton and his brother, Howard M.
Norton, returned from shooting 12 miles
south of Arlington last Sundsy, with
five birds apiece.
"We were out only a short time in
the forenoon," said the former. "Hun
dreds of geese were in sight all the
time, but the day was so nice that it -was
impossible io use a decoy. Wc
hunted from a pit in a wheat field."
Many Portland nlmrods hunted In
this district last week and all returned
with well-filled game bags. L. E. Fry
and Dr. Lowe were among some of
the lucky ones.
Deputy Game Warden Frank Ervlu
says that the best duck lake in this
country is owned by the Deer Island
Shooting Club, on Deer Island, in the
Columbia River.
"This club has the best system of
them all," said the game warden re
cently." It owns a large rest lake sur
rounded by a number of smaller lakes,
where the birds are fed. The members
shoot from blinds at one of the smaller
lakes one week and at another lake
the following week. They never fire
on the ducks while they are In the rest
ing lake.
"Some hunters wonder why they
never get birds and this is the answer,"
continued Ervin. "They never give the
birds a chance to rest. Instead of set
ting aside a resting place for the birds,
they fire at them at every opportunity
and finally succeed in completely driv
ing them out ot that territory."
Peter J. Holohan also reports hunting
good in the Arlington district He re
turned last Thursday with a number of
birds, after spending a few days goose
hunting.
New Play Bobs Up in Game
on Oakland Lot.
Score ly Kl. With O'l.eai-T T'n
knonlDgly In Line of l'lay, 1 pheld
by I in piny l'hyle.
N the last game of the season on the
Oakland lot, a play came up that
escaped attention at the time but has
created a good deal of argument pro
arid run since. This is how it hap
pened: Fitzgerald was on third and
O'Leary at bat when a ball caromed
off Catcher Yantz' mit and went to the
grandstand. Krause covered the plate,
but O'Leary was In the line of tho
throw and the ball hit him in the back
of the head. Fits scoring. Now, what's
the decision?
Captain Rodeers claimed interference.
while Umpire Billy l'hyle ruled that the
run scored. His contention was that
O'Leary was In his rightful position In
the batter's box and was watching the
play without intentionally getting into
the line of piny. Fhyle argued that
O'Leary did not know where the ball
went and that he stood where he be-
onged. President Baum at first
thought that the umpire Was wrong
and that there was interteretice, but
after thinking it over he decided that
the decision was right and one of the
first of its kind he had ever known.
