BY JAMES J. RICHARDSON". With the Northwestern League meet inr scheduled for next Thursday In Se attle It won't be long before the thou sands of baseball fans Of the North west will be able to sit down for break fast and while they sip their coffee and they can peruse the sport page and gather some real live dope on what's doing in baseball. The uncertainties which have been attached to the Portland club since the Pacific Coast League directors saw fit to remove the franchise to Sacramento will have passed into oblivion and. with the exception of those fans who will follow the doings of the Sacramento club on account of the large number of former Portland players on Bill Rodgers team but little interest will manifest itself in the Northwest re garding the outcome of games In Presi dent Baum's circuit. Judge McCredie will leave Portland Wednesday night for Seattle. The fort land magnate will abide by whatever the other directors suggest in the mat ter of schedules, player and salary limits, etc. 20-Week Schedule Voiced. McCredie believes that a 20-week schedule would prove ideal for the Northwestern, and as it seems to be the unanimous Idea of all the club own era In the circuit that such a schedule would prove profitable from a playing and financial standpoint, the moguis undoubtedly will decide to continue nl.vln. tnr tVifit lencrth of time. Judire McCredie is not worrylftg about the lineup for the Portland team With Walter McCredie hobnobbing around the East lining up players for Salt Lake, the Judge is not the least bit worried but that his nephew win annex a lew signatures or some promising players for the Portland Nortnwestern- ers. The following players are on the Portland roster: Roy Ie Grief, Walla Walla; Lee F. Dempsey, Rock Island 111.: W. L. (Lefty) Jamc :, Portland Walter Malls (suspended), Seattle; John D. Martin, Duluth, Minn., and Harry Morton, San Francisco, pitchers; Arthur C. Ritter, shortstop," Portland; Henry Sands and George Armstrong, third basemen, San Francisco; Floyd (Jack) Farmer and Cliff Lee, outfielders; Red Baldwin and Joseph J. Datley, catcher and pitcher, respectively, who are now In the Army. Walter Malla' Caae Fixed. Walter Malls, who was suspended by the McCredles last season, will have to talk "turkey" with Judge McCredie be fore he will ever be allowed to don a baseball uniform in organized baseball Mails, who Is reported to have joined the service, is still the property of the Portland club. Floyd Farmer will be sold to De troit, or else Walter McCredie will have him on the Salt Lake club. Portland should be able to realize a nice piece of filthy lucre or at least three good play era in exchange for Farmer, who was one of the classiest outgardeners In the league last season. Red Baldwin, catcher, and Joe Dalley, pitcher, are in the Army, and, when their enlistment is up, they will revert back to the Portland club. Both are wonderful prospects. . "Lefty" James Mainstay. "Lefty" James will be the mainstay of the Portland pitching staff. When Jamea hit his stride at the tall-end of ast season he was a winner for the McCredles. A number of what Judge McCredie terms promising bushers have been signed up to report at traln- ng camp, and If Manager Paddy Slg- lln can uncover two twirlers out of the lot he ought to feel satisfied. Three semi-pro lnflelders have been corraled to date. One of these, Henry Sands, has been promised to Bill Rodg ers, of Sacramento, and it may be pos- ible that Rodgers wfll take both Sands and Armstrong Into camp, as they are both located at San Francisco, and it would be cheaper, for McCredie to have them report to Rodgers, who can give them the "OO, than to pend a pile of money bringing them orth and then having to turn them adrift if they did not possess the nec essary requisites. The one shining prospect McCredie as lined up In the way of recruit ma terial is Arthur C. Ritter, a Portland youth who cavorted at shortstop for the O.-W. R. N. team the early part of last season and then joined the Baby Beavers. Ritter Is a shortstop and those who have watched the young ster play about the short patch say he another Ivan Olson, being a vest pocket edition of the former Beaver star. Ritter handles himself gracefully and makes hard chances look easy. He a "bear" on starting double plays and is ' always cool. He hit with the rest of the semi-pros last season and has all the earmarks of a future big leaguer. Judge McCerdie is banking Ritter making the utility Job if he fails to land a regular berth. Judge McCredie will make no an nouncement regarding the city where the Portland team will pitch training camp until he returns from the North western League meeting. If the sea son opens about the middle of May the team In all probability will train at home. If the directors decide to open in April McCredie will be forced to take his warriors to California, where the weather is more adaptable for training purposes. straight victory the other night, wal loping "Peanuts" Pander'a Cardinals 40 to 7. Sllverton has in the past boasted one of the fastest teams In the state and the fastest in the -Willamette Valley. This year's team is no exception. Man ager Smith says his boys are In fine condition and are confident of victory. The Live . Wires have some of the fastest players in the city. Flynn,' who played on the Columbia varsity last year, and Duffy, who played a stellar game on the Foresters last year an was a former Christian Brothers star, are playing -forwards. Kropp, wh played center for Franklin High last year, is playing a like position for th Live Wires. The guards are Jacob berger, last year all-star interscholastic guard; Canning, ex-Columbia and Mt. Angel star, and Dnoling, who captained the Christian Brothers team in the sea son of 1916-17. ROSEBUDS 10 BE BUSY THIS WEEK Golf Champion Will Marry. Miss Agnes Ford, of.

DEER SLAUGHTER URGED HUNTER PROPOSES THAT ANIMALS BE KILLED FOR FOOD. In It Letter to Governor Wlthycombe la Snggeated That After War Season Could Be Closed.- Carl D. Shoemaker, State Game War den, has on file In his office an Inter esting letter from a woodsman who has a plan to relieve the food short age. The letter was written to Gov ernor Wlthycombe, who referred It to Warden Shoemaker. Hece it is: - "I have a suggestion to make in re gard to? food conservation which I sin cerely hope may meet with approval. I propose that there be made a certain number of official deer and game hunters In different parts of the state and allow them to slaughter deer and all game and' put on the maj-ket for the public under the supervision of the state. After the war we could have a closed season for ten years if necessary to bring thegrame back to normal." "That last clause would be enough to get a rise out of the hunters," said Warden Shoemaker. "I'm not quite sure whether this man wants the state to finance him on a hunting " trip or whether he Just wants an open sea son on the deer. In any case, the Game Commission will have to disagree with him." Portland Hockey Team Leaves for Vancouver, B. C, Today to Play "Millionaires."

Kerr intends to re main off the ice this season. O. A. C. JUNIOR ENLISTS ENGINEERS CORPS. IN SILVERTOX TO PLAY HERE Valley Basketball Five to Meet St. Francis Quintet.

Standing of Teams. W. L. Pct.For.Agt. Portland 2 I .B67 12 7 Seattle 2 2 .600 ! 18 Vancouver i 2 .333 7 11 Where They Play This Week. Monday night, Portland at Vancouver. Wednesday night. Vancouver at Portland. Friday night, Portland at Seattle. The coming week promises to be a busy one for Pete Muldoon and his Portland Ice hockey septet. The Rose buds pile aboard the rattler today bound for Vancouver, B. C, where they are scheduled to clash with Frank Patrick's Vancouver "Millionaires," tomorrow night. Immediately after their battle at Vancouver both Portland and Van couver teams will return to Portland and continue their hostilities on Wednesday .night. Friday night Seat tle will entertain the Rosebuds in the Sound City. With the number of games scheduled for this week there are apt to be some changes in the standings of the three teams. Muldoon Players In Shape. Muldoon's players are In great shape. Loughlin's injured optic Is not giving him any trouble and the demon speed merchant will enter tomorrow night's fracas at Vancouver feeling in the pink." It was the general Impression around the Ice Palace before Lougrhlin arrived -from Winnipeg that Al Barbour might crowd Clem off the regular lineup, but the idea was " dynamited shortly after Lougrhlin donned a uniform and started to show his caliber on the ice. Lough lin is one of the bright stars of the Rosebud offense and defense and when it comes to tearing up and down the ice he has few equals. Dubbie Kerr will not join the Rose buds at Vancouver tomorrow, as had been hoped, as he has decided to stay out of the game this Winter. Portland and Seattle Tied. Portland and Seattle are tied for scoring honors. Each aggregation has netted the puck 12 times while Van couver has only been able to evade the opposition's goal tender seven times. Portland has been scored against seven times in three games, which gives the Rosebud's the edge on defensive abil ity. The Seattle "Mets" have been tal lied on 16 times In four games while the Vancouverltes have been able to stave off all but 11 attempts by their opponents. Roberts, of Seattle, with seven goals to his credit, leads the league. Roberts thrust the rubber disc past Vancou ver's goal-tender three times last Fri day night at Seattle. He is one of the best men in the league at scoring. Taylor, Vancouver, and Morris, Se attle, are tied for second place in the scoring column with four goals each. Morris was one of the best point-pro- " ducers In the league last season and, together with "Doc" Roberts, his team mate, should be able to run up enough . points to keep the "Mets" up around the top of the percentage column. Charlie Tobin, Eddie Oatman ana Tommy Dunderdale, of the Portland team, are credited with three goals each. "Moose" Johnson, of the Rose buds, has scored twice. Leater Patrick to Front. Lester Patrick, manager of the Be- attle team, leads in the assist column with three successful attempts at pass ing the puck to one of his teammates for a goal. "Cully" Wilson, of Seattle, has drawn 26 minutes of penalties for roughness. The spunky right-wing player of the "Mets" always was noted fo rhis ability to spill an opponent and, if need be, to take a wallop at him whether the referee was watching him or not. But, outside of this defect In Wilson's ability, he Is a grand player and always In the game. Bernie Morris Is second among the list of offenders, with eight minutes of enforced rest. Dunderdale, with six minutes, and Harris with half that amount, are the only Portlanders In the "shady" column. Seattle players have been penalized for a total of 40 minutes. Vancouver has drawn 15 minutes of combined pen alties, while the Portland septet are charged with nine minutes. CAMP ATHLETES TO BE LISTED Men at American Lake Will Be Put in Proper Classes. TACOMA.
