TIIE STTXDAT OEEHOXIAX, FOKTLAyD, MARCH 33. 1915. CONFIDENCE RULES THROUGHOUTCAiViPS Every Manager Thinks He at Least Has Good Chance to Grab Pennant. EACH ISSUES STATEMENT McCretlie Sajs If Present Team Can't IVIn He Will Get One That Can. Blankenship Doesn't Seem to Think His Club Is Best. By Walter .McCredie, manager Port land team: The Portland champions will en ter the. league race this year much stronger than one year ago. One can never tell what a ball elub will do un til It is tried out. 1 found my squad last .Spring was not up to expectations so I rushed reinforcements from the East and we won a pennant. This Spring, my club looks better than it has for several openings past. My catching staff Is the best the Pacific Coast has seen In years. Fisher Is a wonder and Carisch was the first Firing Cleveland catcher only one or two seasons ago. Martinoni. Rieger and I,ush are not In good shape yet. but the rest of my pitchers are all right and I hope to work Lush late in the week. Callahan has been doing some good work, so I expect to be strong in the box. Stumpf, at second, has been playing grdod ball. Ho will not hit in the pinches like Ilodgers, perhaps, but a lack of hitting strength has not been shown by my team In any of the Spring games. Let me repeat, that if I can't win with the present team I will go the limit to get a team .that will win. Thai's the best any baseball manager can do. Dillon Thinks Angela Are Better. By Frank Dillon, manager of the Los Angelis team: 1 am making no claims whatever I never do but I finished second last year with a team not as strong as my present one. Figuring from that standpoint. I can't see why I should do any worse this year. The second base has been strengthened, and I also think, my pitchers are in better shape, and certainly the other positions are O. K. We have the best outfield in the league, and fans will bo surprised to Mi-Mullen in action at second base. Terry and Beumiller will handle short all right, so I'm not worrying, i-oot out for the Angels that's all.

That is not worrying me, for 1 am sure we will be up in the race and give the fans a good club. -Hap" Says liable Can Hit. I3v Happy Hogan, manager of Venice 1 cam: President Maier has spent more money for players this rear than ever before, and the result is the best team Venice ever had. 1 ami proud of them, ana as soon as we got the other pitcher from the White tsox uc will be about unbeatable. 1 am not claiming the! : 1 rasr. hut I contend that Venice will be riirht there or there abouts at the tlntsb. Outside of the out field, we will have a new outfit, and our new babies can hit. field and do everything. I am surprised, but pleased, that we have not been picked to land the pen nant. "Blank" Count on Muggers. By Cliff Blankenship, manager of the Salt Lake team: I cannot with any degree of accuracy pirk my Salt Lake team to win the pennant. 1 realize that I am stepping from Union .Asso ciation class D, to the Coast League, class double A. and there is quite a dif ference in the stan dard of play. What 1 believe is that 1 have a team of hit ters, who will make trouble for any pitcher. Coast Man agers must take iuto consideration the high altitude at Salt Lake, when a ball sails when hit. t nave seiecieu the boys known as sluggers. nnd-v! will hustle to represent one of the best baseball towns in the country.

THIS SEASON THAN LAST. t 1 4 DEWEY WITH AGGIES Star Mile Runner Returns College Unexpectedly. to BEST HURDLER WITHDRAWS Dr. Stewart Confident CorvnHls Track Team "Will Make Good Record at Columbin Indoor Meet to Be Held Soon. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE. Corvallis, March 27. (Special.) The return to college of "Admiral" George Dewey, who two weeks ago withdrew from the institution, is the one en couraging feature which has devel oped In track circles at the Oregon Agricultural College this week. Dewey left college to take a position at The Dalles, but this opening proved out of the Aggie athletes reach. Follow ing two weeks' sojourn In California, Dewey decided to return to college to graduate and. to participate In one more season of track, and surprised .everybody by walking into the gym Friday and asking for his suit. iir ' stu-art said when Dewey left that the local star would have won the conference mile had he stayed In college. Now that "Ad" is back, "Doc" wishes that he had not expressed his confidence in the ability of his run ner, and . had hela him up as a dark horse. Stewart aamits, however, that he has great hopes for Dewey this year, and thinks lie will clip seconds off the time which he made last year, his first season on the track. Hobgood, who for two weeks has been handicapped by a sore toe, is at work again and will.be in shape to per form at the Columbia meet, which Is now less than a fortnight away. Lafke also is training hard for this meet. In Dewcv. Hobeood and Lafke Stewart has a strong bunch of distance men. Moses, the Corvallis High School lad who two years ago was the best interscholastic hurdler in the state, and who until recently had been a student at the college, has withdrawn and will not be in an Aggie suit. His loss Is a disappointment to Stewart. and leaves the Aggies weak, in mm hurdle department. Plue is a fair man in the low stick event, and will doubt less be called on to uphold the Orange in this department. Faithful training under the direc tion of Coacu Stewart and Captain Reynolds has been the rule this week, and while no records have been an nounced which would give the fans any idea of the class of the performances which have been going on, local fol lowers of the track game are confi dent that when the team appears on p he Columbia track other institutions hich will have delegations at the orthwest indoor classic will be forced double-guard their laurels. Rey- olds, in the 880, Coleman in the same vent, Johnson, in the snot, Anderson the sprints and Lafke, Dewey and nd Hobgood in the mile are the men pon whom the Aggies depend for oints.
