NEGROES TO BE MET TODAY
Six Games With American Giants
and One Witb White Sox Will End
- Training Period for Beavers.
Coltrln and Davis Benched.
FRESNO, Cal., March 20. (Special.)
The Portland Beavers enter the last
leg of their training trip tomorrow
when they meet the American Giants
in the first of a series of six games.
But eight more days remain before the
Beavers break camp and leave for the
opening game of the Pacific Coast
League in Los Angeles and these eight
days will be busy ones for the Port
land players.
At least four of the six games with
the negroes will be played in Fresno,
and outside towns will be selected for
the other two contests, i Monday the
Beavers go to Stockton for a final
same with the Chicaso White Sox; they
then return to Fresno for the remaining
games of the training season.
Young Pitchers to Be Tried.
Doubtful pitchers and infielders will
get their chance during the present
week and on their snowing will ne-
nend the final selection for steady po
sitions. Three young pitchers will be
started tomorrow. Leonard, Callahan
and Coveleskie. Leonard has been so
lected to start the contest for Portland
and he will continue for at least three
innings, when either Coveleskie or
Callahan will go in. If possible, the
former will have an opportunity to go
several innings in the box, as Stanley
has not had a chance to snow wnat ne
can uo as yet. Callahan has been triea
tid has not been found wanting. Prac
tically all the old pitchers will have a
chance to go the greater part of nine
innlnirs durinir the series.
Coltrln and Davis will play the bench
tomorrow.-Naughton filling at third and
Murphy at short. Murphy seems to
have the edge as he has been hitting
stronger than Coltrln.

SEALS TOO WILD OX BASES
Poor Running Costs Runs and Gives
Game to White Sox, 7 to 4.
SAN FRANCISCO. March 20. (Spe
cial.) Base-running, altogether fool
hardy at times and lacking in head
work, was costly for .the San Fran
cisco SealB this afternoon and the Chi
cago White Sox No 1 won. 1 to 4.
Schaller and Jones tried to stretch
singles into .doubles with disastrous
results, while Justin Fitzgerald, bent
on making a freak play from third,
was doubled out on what turned into
an easy play. "
Bunny Brief was chiefly responsible
for the Seals' overthrow. He started
off with a three-sacker in the second
inning and gave the Sox a run. a little
later poked out a single that drove in
two more, and to cap the climax
swatted out his second triple of the
day that added another.
Charlie Smith worked five innings
for the Seals and was touched for two
runs. His successor. Art Benham, was
not quite so fortunate, though the
southpaw performed well in spots.
Ping Bodie wae at the head of the
Seals with the club, getting four hits
in five times up. The score:

Fine Contest Won by Salt Lake.
SAN JOSE, Cal.. March 20. (Special.)
Lefty Williams pitched a great game
of ball today against the Indianapolis
team of the American Association, and
Salt Lake was returned the victor, 6-3.
Merz, the big right-hander of the In
dians, was slammed to all corners of
the lot in the first five innings, 11 hits
giving Salt Lake five runs. Buddy Ryan,
clean-up hitter of the Mormons, and
Claud Williams got most or the salt
Lake team's pinch hits. Ryan singled
three times in succession, every time
with men on ahead of him, and his run
ning catch of Crandall's long foul was
the- feature of the fielding. The score:

FANS CRT FOR TWO UMPIRES
One Indicator Man in Practice Game
Falls to Please in Sooth.
SAN FRANCISCO. March 20. (Spe
cial.) San Francisco fandom shrieked
and yelled for the return of the double
umpire system out at Recreation Park
this afternoon, the while "Umps" Billy
Phyle, alone in his .glory, was booting
few decisions, just as players nave
fumbled before him. As luck would
hare it. a majority of the close ones
Phyle has to give were on the bases
and against the home crew. It made
all the difference in the world, and
the clamor of the crowd was just a
trifls more pronounced because of a
7-to-4 Chicago victory.
It was a demonstration directed not
so much at Phylo in spite of the fact

thaf'he deserved censure as it was at
the Coast League directors, who have
decreed that three men shall do the
work heretofore performed by twice
that number.
There can be no question, after to
day's display, as to the temper of the
fans. Having seen the job of declar
ing men safe or out handled in better
shape by the double-umpire system,
they are not at all prepared to accept
half-way measures. A word to the
wise ought to be sufficient, and the
chances are the Coasters, by hustling,
can provide what the people want be

Templetou Wins Trophy.
The weekly shoot last Sunday, for
which the Fred Gilbert trophy was the
prize, was one of the most successful
ever held by the Portland Gun Club,
according to Manager Mathews. Al
most 10,000 blue rocks were sent up.
Frank Templeton won the trophy,
with a record of 99 out of 100. He
broke the first 96. The added bird
system was used and he was credited
with 10 per cent. Templeton, although
a prominent hunter, has been trap
shooting only since last year. He has
made great progress and finished away
up in the Pacific Coast handicap.
The Pacific Coast handicap was his
first public appearance, but in the aver
ages of the state among the amateurs
he is listed as sixth for the season
completed January 1.

Look for Bobby Coltrin as shortstop
for the Spokane club of ths Northwest

the transfer of the popular little short
patcher of the Portland Coast cham
pions has not been officially promul
gated in the training camp, but It Is In
process of Incubation.
"Spokane Is anxious to secure Col
trln." admitted Judge McCredlo last
night. "And. furthermore, we owe Spo
kane an lnflelder in the deal for Covel
eskie. Coltrln Is a grand little fielder
and we could use him to good advant
age If he could but hit a little stronger.
"From all appearances Naughton has
the third base Job anchored down and
Murphy's hitting likely will give him
the call over Cultrln for short."

If Coltrin Is released to Spokane
along with Pitchers bishop and Barnes,
it will cut tlie Portland Coast cham

Murphy is getting shifts both at third
