It is not surprising, therefore, that specta tors f reauently come away far from sat isfled with what they have seen. With a wealth of good things to see. it is next to impossible to make a selection of what is to follow. Of course, when the final round is reached the strain on the spectator's capacity .for selec tion is relieved, but the final occupies only one day out of several. It accordingly happen that during the early stages of such tournaments those who are anxious not to miss any thing keep wandering over the course from one match to another, making in quiries to which answers are almost Invariably disappointing. "It is usually my fate to select the -wrong match to follow." said a man whose experience has been a sad one "By the wrong match I mean one in which nobody does anything delight fully bad. il have never seen an ex pert player miss a ball altogether, as some people have. I have never seen any one get a hole in one in the course of a tournament, although this hap pens frequently. "I was once present at a tournament in which the last players had to make their strokes by lantern light, but had left long before this interesting happening. At the close of a busy day's play I frequently find it necessary to resign myself to hearing others re late how Jones made a great shot at the 18th, or how Smith took five putts at the lourta, or now. feo-a&a-So took three to gat out of & bunker at the sixth and holed out in 11. "These incidents are made all the more attractive when the witness, learning that I have not seen them, expatiates on their remarkable char acter." Here in this coufltry we go to ball games and play golf or tennis about the same as usual. We still look for our exercise and recreation, but the old interest isn't the same. Back of us. around us and beyond us there are too many heavy shadows from far greater events. The times are too tense for one to play with any buoyancy of heart or lightness of soul. To explain this, on two occasions this last week, we saw two happenings beyopd all parallel: 1. A fanatic without change of ex pression while the winning tally was being deposited by the horn's club. 2. A golfer miss an 18-inch putt without blinking. Just as if nothing of any Importance had occurred. Albany and Salem Meet Today. ALBANY, Or., June 12. (Special.)

PLACE NONE CAN FILL LEFT BY HAP HOGAN High Tribute Paid to Late Venice Manager by Cal Ewing Minor Inci dents Throw Light on Tiger Leader's Character. N POINT of service, the late Wallace Louis Bray (Hap Hogan) was the oldest player in the Pacific Coast League. When his name was first changed to Hogan, Bray was known as Wollie Hogan. but this was soon changed to "Happy" Hogan on account of his tac tics on the held. - The widow of the late Venice leader was Miss Laura Curtis, of Sacramento, until her marriage to Bray in 1904. e e Hogan's parents are Mr. and. Mrs. Francis Bray, who for many years have been prominent In the affairs of Santa Clara Valley and. active in church work in San Jose. He leaves three brothers and two sisters. One of these, Mrs. J. T. Atkin son, resides in San Jose, while the other is living at the Bray ranch. The brothers are Hal Bray, who is engaged in the real estate business in San Jose, and Ernest and George. No man can ever take the place of Hap Hegan In baseball on the Pacific Coast. He was the greatest character in the Pacific Coast League and one of the rel great men in organized base ball." This was the professional trib ute paid to the memory of the late Hap Hogan by J. Carl Ewing. V One lovable trait of Hip's was the generosity with which he admitted his mistakes. Often he would come Dack to the bench and say with an air of disgust, "Well, ! pulled a bone-head play." He eeldom had to say this, how ever, as Hap was one of the shrewdest and keenest baseball tacticians in the business. Happy Hogan died without having fulfilled the ambition of his life, which was to win a Coast League pennant. He had come near the flag two or three times. This year he felt sure that he would finish at the head of the league. Hap had a unique way of testing young pitchers. He said he could ai ways tell the first time a pitcher threw a ball to mm wnetner me noy nad anything or not- - If a boy has any thing on the balL It always feels heavy BILL HAYWARD'S UNIVERSITY .iii.ini j.i iMU 1"' J'-"1:"-.''

Hargreaves and REDHEN READY 10 BATTLE PIEDMONT East Siders Hope to Put End to League Leaders' Win ning Streak Today. MONARCHS-PLAY SELLWOOD Manager Randall to Present Two More New Faces In His lineup, Maroon Director Waiving ' 15-Day Limit Rale. Determined to stop Piedmont's win ning streak, and with a world of con fidence in the ability of their star slabster, "Red" Lund, to turn the trick, the East Side Redmen will battle hard this afternoon in an effort to defeat the City League leaders. The game will be played at the Piedmont Park, with Umpire Ed Rankin officiating. Sellwood's Merchants and the West Side Monarchs will battle at Sellwood, with Alex Cheynne handling the indicator. Both games will start at 2:30 o'clock. Manager Randall, of the Redmen. will present two more new faces in his line up Bill Beard and "Frisco" Edwards, both McMinnvllle stars. Although both have not been signed for 15 days, which is a City League rule, the Piedmont management has consented to their playing. "Any team in the league can use anybody that they can secure to play against my club," said the Maroon manager yesterday. "My club has a good lead and we will take a chance. At the Sellwood Park, Wayne F. Lewis will make his Initial bow as a manager of a City League club and, with the bolstering that has already been done, bids fair to make the Mon archs hustle to win. Lewis, who has been pilot of the Celro-Kola team, will take four members of that club to Sell- wood with him, and will retain six of the present Merchants'. In addition to these players, he has signed Pitcher Woolsey, who pitched The Dalles, Or. team to ten straight victories this sea son. - Woolsey and "Lefty" Heiman, who has been pitching for the Merchants, will constitute the pitching staff. Schultz, a former Kola, and Johnnie Newman, who has caught most of Sell wood's games this season, will be the catchers. "Hank" Akin, Howard Neilsen, Heinle Wilson, Fred Cohen and "Mud" Ingles will all be carried as infielders until Lewis can determine Just who will have regular berths. Akin, the Beaverton boy who has been playing first base for the Mer- when it hits my glove," Hap said. "This feeling of heaviness is caused by the twist of the ball. A good catcher, on the other hand, ought to throw a ball that feels lig-ht when you catch it. If a boy tells me ho is a pitcher, and the ball feels light, I know It is no use for him to go on. He hasn't anything." Hap was the sreatest "groat-getter" In baseball. Often when in a tight place in the gome he would go in as a pinch hitter. What with pointing his bat like a sharpshooter's musket at the pitcher, dancing Jigs at the plate and performing the most amazing antics, he eeldom failed to make the pitcher completely lose his head. Even the most experienced veterans were not immune. In one of his last games Hap went in to bat with a man on third. The pitcher grabbed the bunt that Hap slammed out and was about to out off the runner to third, but Hap began dancing a one-step on the way to first. and the pitcher got so rattled that he threw the ball to first base instead and let the roan on third score. Hap seldom called down a player for a physical error, like muffing a ball. He assumed that a man felt as badly as possible over that. He always called attention to boners, however, but in a peculiar way. At the time he seldom mentioned the mistake to the offender. He waited perhaps weeks until some other player played the same point correctly. He then showed the bonehead that he should have done likewise. Hap won one series from the Angels by kidding the catchers. There were two of them. They were ' furiously Jealous of one another. Hap would get out on the first-base line and re monstrate with the catcher who w sitting on the bench. "Don't laugh at him," he would say. "Gee, he is doing the best he can." Whereat the catcher behind the bat would be unable to keep from turning his head to see If his deadly rival was really laughing at him. Realizing that he had let Hap make a fool of him, the young fellow would become so rattled that he wouldn't know whether he was playing football or baseball. OF OREGON ATHLETES WHO RECENTLY TOOK FIRST HONORS IN , FIELD MEET. chants. Is a heavy hitter and fields ex ceptionally well. Wilson, at second base, formerly caught for the Washing ton High School nine and, since being shifted to the keystone station, has been going nicely. " Frita " Cohen cavorts around the difficult corner and is a dandy fielder and one of the best judges of balls and strikes in the league. Nielsen whangs the pellet hard in semi-professional circles and will put up a hard fight with Ingles for the shortstop position. Ingles is a good fielder, but has never hit the ball well. Jack ("Brownie") Groce, Jack Mar shall. "Mich" Smith and Bill Deveny will all be carried as outfielders. Groce is one of the smartest ballplayers in the City League; Marshall is a veteran who has played semi-professional ball around Portland for the past several years, while Smith and Deveny are both well-known performers. Lenta Expected to Satisfy Fans. If Lewis lives up to his reputation he will satisfy Sellwood fans and pro duce a winner. President Clyde J. Rupert, of the Monarchs, will start Pitcher Ossy " Osborne on the mound, with Bleeg do ing the receiving. Brlggs will be shifted to first base in the absence of Bert Currlgan. who has gone to Den ver, Colo., on bis vacation. Murphy, the lanky twirler. will fill Briggs' shoes in the right garden. To reach the Piedmont grounds take the Kenton car to Portland boulevard and walk one block east.. Taking the Sellwood car to Miller avenue and walking three blocks west will bring downtown fans to the Sellwood dia mond.
