PULLMAN BOY IS MARVEL
Hartman Wins One Game From
Idaho, Striking Out 13 and Allow
ing Only Two Swats, but Er
rors in Support Cost Shutout.
When the Portland Beavers return
home from the road trip June 6. which
they will start tonight, there will be
a dandy little college southpaw wait
ing ror them. He is likely to pitch in
one of the games against Oakland. His
name is Al Hartman and he is the star
pitcher of the Washington State Col
lege nine.
Hartman's last game was pitched
last Friday against the University of
ioano at aiobcow. full man won the
game. 6 to 1. Al struck out 13 hit
ters and allowed only two hits. He
had allowed no hits and no runs up
Salem fans are strong for their team untn tne aeVenth. With the score tied
and will turn out in large numbers
tomorrow to see the game between the
Senators and Woodland in the Inter
City League. Barham and Hauser for
the home club will work on the points,
opposing Kotula and Kerby.

WOODBlRNT. Or., May 13. (Special.)
With t'het Murphy on the mound and
Sims catching. Manager Huddleson, of
the Woodburn team, is confident of
trimming the Kirkpatricks who are
tied for the leadership of the league,
when the two clubs meet -here tomor

i to i, in tne ninth. Hartman came
to bat and with a two-bagger started
a rally which netted four runs.
In two different innings he struck
out three men in a row, and once this
transpired with two on the bases and
the head of the batting order up. Er
rors behind this midget cost him a
shutout. He has not lost a game since
pitching for his school.
Record for Two Tear Given.
Here is Hartman's record for the laM
two years:
like to have an outfield composed of
the three following former Beavers
Fitzgerald, Ryan and Doane.
Because he needs a southpaw. Rowdy
Elliott attempted to sign Art Benham.
former member of the Seals, who is
pitching for Petaluma, Cal. Art was
offered a contract, but refused to ac
cept it, declaring that he was through
with professional bail.
Frank Chance, peerless leader of the
Angels, will make his debut In San
Francisco next week. The series there
should be a corker, with the Angels
and the Seals fighting for first place.

Chief Lou Smith, the Indian twirler.
who was released by Walt McCredie
soon after the season opened, is in San

Blank may use the Indian, particularly
as he was recommended las. Fall by
Jimmy Shinn.
The Eastern market may be over
loaded with baseball, and it probably
has been since the peace pact was
signed by the representatives of out
law and organized ball, but still the
managers of clubs in the National and
American leagues continue to comb the
bushes In search of Walter Johnsons,
Ty Cobbs and Grover Cleveland Alex
anders. The Pacific Coast League sent
up more tossers than any other minor
league last season and naturally the
big fellows are looking for this cir
cult to repeat.
Within a few weeks there are likely
to be severe! major league scouts tour
ing the Coast League In search of
promising material. The success
achieved by Harry Ileilmann. Fred Mc
Mullin. Claude Williams and Stanley
Coveleskie, and a few more of the
Coasters, probably will cause the big
powers in baseball to start to work
early this season.
There always was a chance for the
right sort of a ballplayer in the upper
circles of diamond society, and there
will be as long as the game thrives.
The old-time reliable ones are fast
wearing out and breaking down, so
it's only natural that the managers are
casting around for new talent.

runs the mile, are regarded as stars in
their events, although there is a possi
bitity that both may lose to Oregon,
Clyde has won consistently during h!s
tracK career here, and Stenstrom had
no trouble with the dashes last year.
Washington will be weak in the
weights, javelin and jumps. She will
be fairly well represented In the half
mile and quarter and in the 220-yard
dash. Neither Stuchel nor Hurlburt has
pitched 26 consecutive victories. He
was at bat 13G times during last year
and made 45 hits for an average of
.333.
This season he has been at bat 37
times and landed out 17 safe swats,
which includes three home runs, one
triple, six doubles and seven singles.

Orvie Overall apparently is suffer
mg from the come-back fever. Th
one-time great Cub. Tiger and Seal
pitcner was In San Francisco the othe
day on a flying visit from VisaLia. an
ne stuck around long enough to tell
his old friend, Charley Swain, abou
how well his arm felt. "I pitched
ousn game in lsalLa a week ago las
Sunday," exclaimed the big lellow, "and
ianned is batters.
"I motored down to Los Angeles that
night and did not feel a bit sore or
tired after the trip." Overall has ouit
his job with the Maier Brewing Com
pany, of Los Angeles, and is superin
tending his father's ranch at Visalia.
It is hinted that he may take another
fling at the diamond game before the
season is over. His last engagement
was with the Seals two years ago.
For. the first time in many a year,
not a Seal was left behind when the
team took the Jump to Portland. Man
ager Wolverton figured that he needed
every man on the payroll, so he bought
them all tickets for the North. With
only 17 men on the list, it looks &s
if every Seal will be kept hopping.
Home runs over the San Francisco
right-field fence will not be so fre
quent in the future. Workmen are now
busily engaged in adding a 12-foot
wire netting to the enclosure. The rea
son is that too many balls have been
hit out of the lot never to return. It
has also cost Hen Berry a tidy sum
paying for broken windows since the
season opened.

JONES HOT YET OUT
St. Louis Fans Count on Abil
ity of Browns' Leader.
TEAM NOT NOW IN RACE
Baseball tJeneral Likely to Forge
Forward, Despite I-ack of
Championship Material.
Other Days Recalled.
ST. LOUIS, May 13. Although Fielder
Jones Brown Sox are In the second
division of the American League, the
other leaders in the circuit had better
watch out for this clever manager. He
Is likely to finish in the first division
with his team. Jones is back In or
ganized baseball after being with the
Feds for a season.
This general of the diamond had a
hard task ahead of him in selecting a
team from the two St. Louis teams, the
Browns and the Feds of last season,
but from present Indications he haa a
combination that will aoon be in the
fight. There is an old saying. "Give
Jones a lot or old women and he will
make something of them."
He has in the past demonstrated that
he can make winners out of almost any
kind of player. He took the Chicago
Sox of 1906 and made not only a win
ner in the American League, but also
defeated the xreat Chicago National
League team of that year for the I
world's honors.
Jones broke into the game many
years ago. although he was out of it
for a few years while in business in
Portland, Or. During most of that time
he was president of the Northwestern
League. He returned last season, and
today is hard at work trying to de
velop a team that will win high hon
ors in the American League.
Jones began his professional career
In Oregon in 1S93. and played with a
couple of teams until Brooklyn grabbed
him in 18H6. where he proved a star
until 1901 when he jumped to the Chi
cago Sox, where he remained until the
end of 19ni. and after winning the
world's series retired from the club,
owing, it is said, to President Com
Iskey's refusal to sell him an interest
In the club.
If baseball knowledge will make a
winner out of the Browns thla season,
or any other one. they will have it. for
there Is a question if there Is a man
In the game today who really knows
more baseball than Fielder Jones. His
home is in Portland. Or. Fielder was
born at Shtnglehouse. Pa.. August 13,
1871.
KLAMATH FALLS SIGNS BIGBEK
Game Willi Weed Scheduled for
I-'.ud of Month.
KLAMATH FALLS. Or.. May IS.
(Special.) Manager Watt, of the
Klamath baseball club, today received
advice from Lyie Bigbee that he would
pitch for Klamath Falls' team and
transportation baa been forwarded to
him. He will come- on here immedi
ately. Bigbee is considered the fastest
pitcher ever seen in this section, and
he can play the outfield equally as
well. His record for last year with
the local team is well known in South
ern Oregon.
The last practice game of the season
for the local team will take place next
Sunday In this city, when a game with
the Yainax Indians will be had. A
game with Weed. Cal.. for two weeks
hence has been scheduled.
