Use Our Exchange Department Easy Terms First at Washington FANS WATCH BEN KAUFF JU.VV WOXDER IF PLAYER WILL BE WORTH PRICE. ?."- Outfielder of Giants Counted on to Be Near Top of Ills League in Batting and Base Running. NEW YORK, April 8. Benjamin Ivauff, the sensational young player -who set the Federal League atire with is playing, both at bat and on the liases, and who was sold to the New York Giants by Sinclair, real owner of till the players left by the Federal League, brought a sum that startled vcrsone connected with baseball. ' The question is being asked every day among fans will Bennie be able to hold his end up in the major league? In the opinion of many follow ers of the game the answer is yes. Jiuutt is one of those natural batsmen -who can hit any pitcher, and when a man can lead the Federal League two years at the bat he should be able to ct many hits in the National League. He may not be the batter in the renlor league that he was with the Feds, "but he is almost sure to make his presence felt. Kauff is but 26 years of age; was born in Middleport, O.. January 5, 1890: stands live feet seven inches and weighs 170 pounds, lie bats and throws left-handed. While with Indianapolis in 1914 he stole 76 bases and hit for an average of .366, having 210 hits, 45 of them be ing doubles. Last season he had 166 hits, 25 doubles, 12 triples and 12 home runs. He stole 54 bases and finished with a batting average of .344. The young player began his professional career at Parkersburg. in the Virginia State League, in 1910, and in 1911 he was found with Bridgeport, of the Con necticut State League, where he. had been farmed by the New York Amer ican League club. In the Fall of that year he was recalled by the Yankees, but the next Spring he was sent to Hartford, where he played until he jumped to Indianapolis in 1914. LEWIS PREPARES TO BATTLE Jack Britton Will Be Met for Wel terweight Championship. Ted ("Kid") Lewis, who is to fight Jack Britton a 20-round bout at New Orleans on April 15 for the welter weight championship of the world, is getting into condition for the battle. This will undoubtedly end "Dumb Dan" Morgan's talk about Lewis being a fouiflusher and afraid of Britton. Danny O'Brien, the local lightweight, says that Britton is one of the greatest fighters in the world, hitting from all angles. Danny has met him. Mount Angel Plays Today.

HOUSE WINS 4 FIRSTS STANFORD FRESHMAN TAKES 23 POINTS IN FIELD MEET. California Yearling-, by Victory In Re lay, Take Exciting Content One Record Is Equalled. SAN FRANCISCO, April 8. (Special.) Meredith House, who entered Stan ford University last Fall from River side, was the whole show at the Berke ley cinder path this afternoon, although his Cardinal brothers lost the annual freshman track meet to California by the score of 65 1-3 to 56 2-3. The South ern youngster established a wonderful record for the scoring of. individual points and incidentally set a new fresh man record of :24 2-5 in the low hur dles. House gathered 23 points, taking first places in the 220-yard hurdles, 100 and 220-yard dashes and broad Jump as well as running into second place in the high sticks. California surprised the Palo Alto athletes with the unexpected on the track as well as in the field.

BEAVERS WOULD BE GOOD WITH HURLERS Will J. Slattery Says Higg Is Only Pitcher Who Has Shovvn Anything. OTHER POSTS WELL FILLED Infield Regarded as Splendid and Outfield Dangerous Guisto Is Hailed as Cpming Star; Men Are Said to Be Willing. (The Oreconian heretofore published the expert opinions of Kosooe Fawcett. of The Oiegonian; Harry B. Smith, of the San Fran cisco Chronicle, and Al C. Joy. baseball ex pert of the San Francisco Examiner, on the work and appearance to date of tilt- llHit Beavers. Herewith is presi-nted the opinion of Will J Slattery. baseball expert of the San Francisco Call, regarding the Portland team.) BY WILL J. SLATTERY. SAX FRANCISCO, Cal., Aprl 8. (Spe cial.) The fate of the Portland team rests with its pitchers, and unless those pitchers improve with age. it will be right up to Walter McCredie to beg. borrow, steal or import a flock of com petent slabsters to help Irve Higgin botham out in the pinches, for he is the only Portland boxman who has yet shown the fans of San Francisco any regular stuff. McCredie boasts a splendid, well bal anced infield, a run-getting, hard-hitting outfield and a pair of worthy catchers, but theae men can't expect to keep up the race unless dispensers of the benders round to form and show something. McCredie has a fast team. There's plenty of young blood on it and if the Beaver boss runs true to form there is every reason to believe that he will be in line to give them all a battle when the season is well under way. There are so many new faces on the Portland lineup that the leader will be compelled to spend much time per fecting the organization needed. The players are willing enough, but they have not yet gotten used to one another and it will surely require at least a month properly to oil up the machinery. It's a dangerous combination from the top of the batting list right down to the catcher. Wilie, Southworth. Vaughn and Ward are speed marvels and goat getters. Guisto-looms up like the making of a champion first packer. Tell the Portland fans that this kid can sap the old apple. He's absolutely without nerves, has the gall of a safe cracker, the driving power of a loco motive and speed enough to entitle him to steal many a base. Coast League Gossip. E'ER since baseball became a Na tional issue, the players on the elope of the Pacific Coast always have set the opening pace, and they upheld their own reputations and those of their predecessors by ushering in' the 1916 season last Tuesday. Naturally, the eves of the fans throughout the length and breadth of the land were focused on San Francisco, Los Angeles and Salt Lake, the three opening bat tlegrounds of the Pacific Coast League. The Pacific Coast League started, too. under conditions favorable beyond the dreams of magnates, managers and players. The settings are ideal for a record-breaker, and the thousands of rooters all along the circuit are now having their appetites satisfied by seeing the games or perusing the box scores after the long, dreary, dismal Winter. The loyal rooters of every city where the Coasters opened last Tuesday were out bright and early that morning, all decked and with their voices well trained to give their favorites a send off which they all so well deserved. It was the greatest baseball day that three Coaet League cities ever had. When the Beavers come home one week from Tuesday and oppose the Salt Lake club at Vaughn street, the top record set by Los Angeles last Tuesday is likely to be smashed to smithereens. There were 16.212 fans out to welcome Frank LeRoy Chance and his crew opening day. The Port land baseball boosters are determined to have 20,000 out. Will they do it? They will if they receive the hearty co-operation of every Portland fan. Eight more days and the Beavers will be home. Wolverton. wise old fan of the dia mond and natural leader of baseball players, is his staid self. For the thousandth time he has assured all the members of the anxious squad that his men will prove loyal to the cauee and that another pennant will decorate the San I rancisco flagpole. Wolverton started the season with the heaviest bundle of any of the man agers on his shoulders. This burden is the 1915 pennant which the gray-haired boss of the Seal squad landed for San Francisco fans after seven hard months of strife, most of the time against odds. Roy Mitchell, the Vernon heaver. Is another Coast League player who coached a college team before report ing fnr rlnlv. He renorterl in flrnt- class shape. There was only one thing wrong wnn rioy. inat was nis voice. He hardly is able to make his presence known and can hardly talk above a weak whisper. His voice is improv ing, however, but Mitch won't tell his teammates what caused it. It begins to look like Phil Koerner will play the entire season through at first for the Angels. It was thought that Chance would take a fling at the initial corner himself at different in tervals, but this now seems unlikely. Koerner should prove to be a fixture there. Manager Blankenship has announced that he will send for Second Bacfeman Morris Rath Immediately and that he expects two right-handed pitchers from the Yankees for trial within a few days. , Joe Wilhoit. former Vernon out fielder, is making good with Haugh- ton's Boston Braves. The California crack has been doing excellent work with the stick in Spring practice and looks like the logical candidate for one of the Boston garden positions. Wil hoit has not been doing wonderfully well in the fielding line, however. Although Frank Chance does not seem to feel able to retain Howard Ehmke on his pitching staff, there is a strong possibility that the young Glendale pitcher may land a berth with the San Francisco club. Hen Berry, prexy of the Seals, told Ehmke tliat if he failed to make good with the Angels the Bay City aggregation would give him a chance. The release by Salt Lake of the vet eran pitcher Jack ICillilay probably means that he is through. He was let go to make room for Tom Hughes, ob tained from the Angels. Killilay was the leading pitcher of the Coast cir cuit when the Oaks won the pennant under Bud Sharpe four or five years ago. That was the same season that Gus Hetling won an automobile for be ing the most valuable man to his team. . The Chattanooga club has announced the signing of Pitcher Charley Smith, once with Chicago and later with San Francisco in. the Coast League. Soutar Wins Squash Title and $1000 PHILADELPHIA. April 8.

The Willamette team played an aggressive game, but was loose in fieldins-. making seven errors.

NEW SYSTEM IS P LAMMED Intramural Games to Take Hij Tlace at Corvallis Pipal to Coach Vootball and Track and Field Teams'. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLKGK. Corvailis, April S. (Special.) J. F Bohlcr. for the past eight years director of athletics at Washington State Col lege, was today officially elected direc tor of physical education at the Oregon Agricultural College. He signified his intention to accept the position. but re served formal acceptance until after a conference with President Holland, of Washington Slate College, who was not in Pullman today. It was al.o announced that Joseph Pipal, for the past five years in charge of athletics and physical educa tion at Occidental College, Los Angeles, had been appointed head coach of ath letics at the Oregon Agricultural Col lege and that his acceptance had been received. Both men will be listed as professors on the college faculty. Work Is Divided. In addition to the duties of director of athletics. Mr. Bohler will train all student athletic teams and will coach basketball and possibly baseball. Mr. Pipal will coach football and track. The reorganization in the department of physical education will include the institution of a system of intramural athletics reaching every student and both men will devote a part of their time to this work. Mr. I'ipal will come north some time next month and will probably institute Spring football practice. Mr. Bohler will remain at Tullman until the close of the college year. Scoies of applications for the posi tions open at Washington State Col lege had been received from men in nearly every state from Maine to Cali fornia, after the resignation of Or. Stewart was announced. President Kerr said today that the combination elected was the best possible to be obtained to meet the peculiar needs of the pro posed reorganization of athletic work. Many candidates were interviewed by President Kerr during his recent East ern trip. Records of Both Men Good.

GUISTO'S WORK PUZZLES SAN FRANCISCO FANS DIFFER AS TO RECRUIT'S FUTURE. Homer After Floral Horseshoe Jresen tatiun Is Credited to Lack of Dope on Ball. BY HARRY B. SMITH. SAN FRANCISCO, April 8. (Special.) Local fans are divided irf their opin ions as to what Louis Guisto will do in the Coast League this year. There was. of course, a lot of enthusiasm when Guisto broke all precedent by be ing presented with a floral horseshoe and then walloped the ball over the fence. But shrewd judges started to figure that the recruit had been fed nothing but straight fast ones. They commenced to argue as to what would happen when the curves were flung and the novice tangled up. Indeed Henry Berry won a bet with Hal Chase by wagering that Guisto wouldn't land a safety against Poll Perritt in the second set-to of the week. There is a chance that Guisto may be a flash in the pan, but it must be re membered that McCredie. who has proved himself a mighty good judge of ballplayers, has put himself on rec ord to the effect that Guieto is the best prospect he has looked over in many a day. The next month should tell the story. If Guisto can keep up the performance, of last Tuesday and Thursday ho wil: be a marvel and they will have to tako off their hats to him. Bill Collins Seeks Games. Bill Collins has gathered together quite a likely looking bunch of junior ballplayers averaging 15 years of age. He wants to schedule games with teams of an average age of 15 in the city. To reach him, call Marshall 359. 1
