After watching the playing of Ken neth Williams for two days from the seclusion of the grandstand, Robert Quinn, business manager of the St. Louis Americans, stalked out in the open yesterday and made the McCre dies an offer that undoubtedly means the transfer of the big Portland out fielder to St. Louis in the FalL No sale price was agreed to last night, but Walter McCredie said that two or three players were involved along with some cash. Mack Is trying to get Fielder Jones to send him pitch ing ' reinforcements immediately. Two other rather important baseball vents transpired on the Columbia River sector yesterday. One of these was the arrival of "Red" Baldwin, Spokane catcher, who will be in uniform in the double-header this afternoon. No game was played yes terday, owing to the continued rain of the forenoon, so Manager McCredie had no opportunity to look over his new prospect at close range. The other development features Char ley Hollocher, demon little short-patch-er. It leaked out during the rainy spells that Joseph Kelly, scout for the New York Americans, is on his way to Port land to make a bid for Hollocher. "New York has been flirting with us Mut Hollocher," admitted Walter Mc Credie when queried about this last named transaction. "Kelly, I under stand. Is en route to the Coast to give him the once over. New York already has one of my shortstops, Roger Peck inpaugh, but I guess Donovan needs a second baseman. Hollocher is a great little infielder and can hit. He is a wonderful big-league prospect." "Bob" Qulnn, the St. Louis Browns' scout, is the man who took Branch Rickey's place when Rickey moved over to the St. Louis Nationals. He is a well-known figure in the Middle West, having bossed the business end of the Columbus club for many years. "I think I'll take a. run down to Cali fornia to look over a couple more Coast League clubs," said he at the Cornelius Hotel last night. "I like this fellow W'illiams and I think he will strengthen our ball club. Fielder Jones had the Browns going nicely until several of our players fell victims to accidents." . Qulnn arrived a couple of days too late to see Williams slam out his three home runs last Sunday. In the four (tames with the Bees, however, Will iams has hit at a .357 clip, besides drawing three walks. Williams is an extra-base walloper, pure and simple. He hits the sphere harder than any body that has been on the Portland payroll for several years. St. Louis wanted Portland to let him report Immediately, but. of course, the Macks, refused. Kenneth will report to Fielder Jones next Spring, and if he doesn't make good it will surprise the local wiseacres. This will be the Grants Pass prod der's second apprenticeship in the ma jors. Two years ago Cincinnati pur chased his release from the Spokane club of the Northwest League. "Williams would have made good then if he had been under a good man ager," vouchsafed Bill Rodgers in a discussion relative to Williams a day or two ago. "Williams swings a ehll lelah 10 or 12 ounces heavier than any other man on the ball club. When he broke in at Cincinnati he began crack ing the ball around the lot just as he has been doing here. "But one day he fell into a slump and, after a couple of hltless games, Herzog jumped on -him with all feet and made him discard his big bat. Will lams is a slugger and not a "choke bat" artist. A wise manager would not have tried to change his style. Williams stuck around until last Spring, when Cincinnati sent him back to Spokane " The arrival of Catcher RaMirin r Spokane to Join the E'averi means the release of Louis Sepulveda. Louis is a ciever oaexstop and a first-class throw er, but Mack wants a youngster with prospects or development. Sepulveda should have little difficulty in Catching on with some Western or Southern AWCttgUO C1UO. CHAXCE MO BLANK OAKLAM) Crandall Pitches Steady Game and Holds Oaks to Four Hits. SAN FRANCISCO.

FAST PLAYERS SIGN Shipbuilding Plants Attract Clever Talent. 'SPECK" HARKNESS BACK Ex-Beaver Fllnger Joins Shipbuild ers, of Whom Roy Doty Is Man . ager; Vernon Ayau and Per cyRobinson Obtained. A new industry has opened for the future Willie Keelers and for the ball players who have seen better days. The Northwest Steel Company has entered a team In the field and the players are youngsters who have tried faster com pany, but were not experienced enough. Eugene ("Busher") Blake and Al. Zwelfel, both tried out as pitchers with Seattle; Colly Druhot was a former Coaster and the rest of the team are local boys who have "bushed" around the city for the past two or three sea sons. The ' Columbia River Shipbuilding Corporation is now turning out a team with Roy Doty acting as manager. Doty played and managed the Hawaiian ball club that traveled through the United btates laBt. season, playing and beating such teams as Brown University. Co lumbia University and the University of Texas. "Speck" Harkness also has Joined the rivet-sllngers and is slated to do the twirling for the Shipbuilders. "Speck" is a former Portland Beaver hurler, graduating to Cleveland and later re turning to Portland. Harkness hasn't pitched much ball for two years and fans are awaiting to see if he has any of his former cunning. Percy Robinson, one of Doty"s star outfielders, played with Twin Falls, Idaho, last year, and Vernon Ayau is the sensational Chinese shortstop who failed with Seattle on account of being unable to hit. although his fielding was brilliant. Hans Qravelle, a former City Leaguer, also is with the Shipbuilders. Seattle at present has a four-team league which plays, every Saturday aft ernoon. Many former City Leaguers and ex-Northwestern League players have joined the Seattle Shipbuilders, as it pays them better than baseball, and they have a place to work during the Winter. Chet Murphy, formerly with the Mon archal "Sharkey" Sherrett, who used to pastime for the Kirkpatricks; "Zita" Cohen, former Bradford third baseman, and "Red" Lund, a former Bradford twlrler, are some of the Portland boys who are playing in the Seattle league. Glavenich, Rock, Mclver and Carl Hol llngs are some of the former North western Leaguers that have quit or ganized ball to work in the shipyard.

GOODWIN What we hope to be the grand finale of the Columbia-Willamette Trapshoot- ers' Association for the 1917 season 1 scheduled for today when the Capital City Gun Club of Salem will battle the La Grande Gun Club of La Grande. If La Grande wins, the Woodburn Gun Club will tangle with the Eastern Ore gon nimrods for the championship of the circuit and one of The Oregonlan trophies. Because of the Importance of the matches, referees have been appointed for each of the grounds. To insure against possible attempts for protests, the representative of The Oregonlan in each town Interested has been selected to do the work. D. H. Upjohn will be the Salem referee. A. W. Nelson will Judge at La Grande, while C. B. Gill, of Woodburn, will be unable to judge and he has vouched for Albert L. Gill to see to it that everything is run off smoothly. One Role Is Strict. There is one rule that must be strict ly enforced at each one of the clubs today. That is, before each contestant begins to shoot for the- team he must so declare himself. He will be allowed to practice 25 birds if he desires, but he must tell the referee before he com petes that he wants his score to count in the Columbia-Willamette Trapshoot- ers Association race, In this way a scatter-gun artist will not be able, to shoot at 100 birds or so and afterwards pick out his best 25 The idea for the competition is to give everyone, the good, shot and the poor shot, an equal chance to get in on one of The Oregonlan trophies. There are two trophies put up by The Oregonlan, one for first place and the other for second honors. The schedule today is such that if La Grande loses to the Capital City Gun Club, then a tie for second place win occur, and it will have to be shot off against Albany next Sunday. That would be the final day. The Woodburn Gun Club used but seven men during the seven weeks of shooting, and four of these made the team every Sunday. The Round-Up Gun Club of Pendleton used 11, as did the La Grande Gun Club. The Cane- mah Gun Club of Oregon City, the Astoria Club and the Capital City Gun Club each were forced to use 12 men before the regular campaign was completed, while the Albanja Gun Club brought 13 names to the fore. Woodbnm Shooter High Gun, High gun Is credited to Peter Whit ney, or Woodburn, with 14 6 out of a possible 150. He was closely pressed by Lou Rayburn, of La Grande, who broke 145 tarbabies. C. T. Parker, of Oregon City, and Arvll Wilson, of Sa lera, each smeared 142, while H. J. Stlllman, of the Round-Up Gun Glub Is credited with 143 for third place. It will be noted that the Albany Gun Club Is given a total of 716 in the team total for broken birds in the standings of the squads and that a total of 789 is credited in the individual scores at the bottom of this column. That la be cause several ties were recorded and but one of the scores was awarded to the team total, so as to make it an even 760 shot at. Colonel Henry R. Everdlng, secretary-treasurer of the Portland Gun Club, is confident that all attendance records will be broken at the Rose Festival event at the Everdlng Park traps next Wednesday. It will be a 150-blrd race and will be shot under the class system so as to give everyone an even chance to win. Beginners' day Is today at Everdihg Park. The an nual Northwest shoot is billed for June 4, 25, 26 and 27. and nimrods from all over the Northwest and California will be in attendance.

For the first time since the beginning of the season the Tacoma Tigers were deposed from the leadership in the Northwestern League race last Thurs day morning. Great Falls took first place when Butte compelled "Suds" Sutherland, the Tigers' premier twlrler. to trot back to the bench, and Great Falls won a - ten-inning battle from Vancouver. It was predicted In these columns that Tacoma would be brought back to the bunch before the end of June, but at that time it did not seem as if the feat would be accomplished before the month was well along. Coincident with Tacoma s setback. and Great Falls' steady progress to the front has come the hard drive of the Seattle Giants, who have been mauling the Spokane Indians, sweet revenge after dropping both games of a double-header the day before the teams came to Seattle to resume hos tilities. The coming week Is decidedly im portant, both to Seattle and Tacoma. Should Seattle come up to their expec tations they will be shouldering Great Falls or Tacoma for first place. On the other hand, if Tacoma can jump -on Seattle, and Butte, in the meantime. take a fall out of Great rails, the Tigers will be secure in their position at or near the top. Seattle and Ta coma have not met this season. The first part of the series will be played In Tacoma, and the second half in Se attle. Butte is a stronger team than it was a week ago, so there is a chance that it will give Great Falls strong oppo sition during the coming week. As far as the season has gone Ta coma and Great Falls have ranked the other teams for steady, consistent work. Seattle has felt the burden of erratic pitching, but wSth the return of Pat Eastley, who was idle a long time on account of a lame arm, and the gradual improvement in the work of biar Joe Dailev. the situation has improved to a marked degree. Pruitt, who came here from California, did not pitch the ball expected and has been released. Our former distinguished slabman. Walter Mails, made us a short visit last week, coming over from Portland. where he Is twirling for Walter Mc Credie. Walter never looked better,, and likes his new home. He Is cock sure that it is only a question of time before he will be back in the big show. Mails went from Seattle to Brooklyn. Recently he was shifted from Brooklyn to Pittsburg, where he remained only a short time before being transferred to Portland. Walter says that he did not get a chance with the Pirates, but a different story comes from the Smoky City. I quote from a letter written by Ralph Davis, Pittsburg correspondent of the St. Louis Sporting News, under date of May 14: "So far as Mails Is concerned, it is only a question of time until he is turned loose. He has not been In sym pathy with the local club since he was brought here over the waiver route from Brooklyn. He got into a squab ble with Barney Dreyfuss before he had been on the club's roster more than a few hours, and it is said that the two indulged in some wordy warfare that was picturesque. According to reports. Mails asked to be disposed of either by sale or trade at once, feeling that he would never be able to do himself jus tice here." Now that the University of Wash ington and Washington State College have decided to continue intercolle giate athletics next Fall. Oregon and California will not have to go out of their way to schedule games with less er institutions. There is nothing un patriotic about the continuance of ath letics, especially in view of the attitude taken by President Wilson. Some of the football heroes may eventually have to do a tturn in the trenches, but the training they will receive on the grid will not come amiss in the strug gle for life and liberty. . - . . . 1 T . ,AA,,.11 OinCe me LIUBC ji .aaau aw.uf. season so many things have happened that the relative strength of the teams is more difficult to determine than ever. Coach Hunt, of Washington, thinks that it may be wise to suspend, for the time being, the one-year rule, and thus pave the way for freshmen to make the teams. Under the exist ing conditions Mr. Hunt's suggestion appears to have merit. FRATERNAL TEAMS TO PLAT Knights and Maccabees to Battle for First Place. Fraternal Leagne Standings. W. L.
