GADSBY & SONS COR. SECOND and MORRISON STS. Portland Stagnate Satisfied That Buckaroos Will Hold Own Clow, Pitcher, Wins Praise for Work in Box; Fisher Out of Game. BT JAMES J. RICHARDSON. TRAINING CAMP, ' Pendleton, Or.. April 20. (Special.) With Manager Fisher out of the game today on ac count of a spralnea back, the Yanni gans managed to turn the tables on the Regulars, score, 5 to 3, in a battle that was replete with sensational plays and hard hitting by the Yanni- jrans. Clew, the Bend cherub, twirled tne entire game for the Yannigans and let the regulars down with seven safe swats, striking out four a'nd issuing two bases on balls. Clow is a veritable glutton for work and says he can pitch every day in the week and twice on Sunday Rapp and Mitchell hurled for the regulars. Feuerborn broke into the game as a catcher for the Regulars and handled himself nicely. .oDoay at tempted to steal bases on the big fel low. whose work was pleasing to Judge McCredie and Manager Fisher. The regulars started out like winners in the fourth, when Dempsey singled and went to second when Lee walked Dempsey took a big lead off second and Holiocher dropped Clow s throw, Demp sey taking third. Cox singled, scoring Dempsey and Lee. YaanlK-ana Tie Score. The yannigans came back in their half'of the fourth ana tied up the score. Bourg singled 'and took second when McKintey hit to left. Clow singled. scoring Bourg, McKinley taking third. Holiocher singled, scoring McKinley. The yannigans peppered up and took the lead In the fifth, when Teck dou bled and scored on Peterson's single. Second Baseman ShoUp held the ball after the throw in and caught Teck napping Ave feet away from the bag, but Teck managed to get back to the cushion while the umpire was sound asleep and was not called out. Then Pembroke kissed the pellet for two bags, scoring Peterson. Cox scored the third and final tally for the regulars in the seventh, when he doubled to left and scored on Feuer- born's single to the same spot. Mitchell hopped in a fast one In. the eighth inning that Bourg clicked for a home run, putting the game on "Ice" for the yannigans. Double plays were frequent today, the yannigans getting away with three, while the regulars chalked up two. McCredie I Satisfied. Judge McCredie is satisfied with the showingvof his players and is confident the Buckaroos will finish well up in the Pacific Coast International race. McCredie is much impressed with the work of Pitcher Clow and the Bend youngster may land a job as a regular. Second Baseman Haney and Third Baseman Altermath are expected in tomorrow night. Judge McCredie and the sporting writers will leave for Portland' after Sunday's game. Cox was examined today for the draft and passed 100 per cent perfect He is way down on the list and may not be called until next Fall. Yannigans Regulars through with baseball. He intends to devote his time to his farm in Indiana and will not report to the Kansas City club. Another major league ball tosser has arrived in France. Mike Menowsky has landed 'Over There" where Hank Gow dy, Sherrod Smith, Harry Grant, Harry Mccormick and others were already working. Rumor has It that Ham Hyatt, for many years noted as a pinch hitter with the Pirates, and now In the mi nors, is wanted oy a certain major league club to fill a similar role. . It is figured that Connie Mack picked up a valuable pitcher in Scott Perry. the former Southern League star. Perry was with the Cubs late in the 1916 sea son, but played Independent ball last season. The Boston Red Socks pitchers. Tan kee catchers and infield and the Detroit outfield would make quite a ball club; good enough for any league. What? m After Alexander joins the Army' the Cubs will have a tough time trying to stay In the first division. Sam Crawford's playing has been the sensation of the early games of the Pa cific Coast League race. The former Tiger is stationed in right field for the Los Angeles club. Gregg and Myers will be the leading pitchers of Connie Mack's staff this season. WASHINGTON LEADS RAGE FOR PENNANi Three Wins and No Losses Place School Top of League After Two Weeks' Play. Dan Howley, who was trying to be come the manager of the Indianapolis club, may now succeed Nap. Lajole as the leader of the Toronto team. Manager Howard, of Oakland, got a good start in the Pacific Coast League race. His team won the first five games.

After three years without any baseball, 1918 will see four and pet haps more fast teams in the field in Coos County and likely a league of at least four units. . Powers has already put two nines into play and staged its tirst game on a recent Sunday, when the town aggregation defeated the soldiers 8 to 7. The shipbuilding and logging bulge has brought many expert players into this territory and as the season ad vances different industrial establish ments are tuning up their ballplayers and preparing to organize teams. The Coos Bay Shipbuilding force of 600 men is being canvassed for players and Coach Cal Langworthy finds the yard will produce an amazing number of aspirants for places. The Kruse & Banks shipyard is like wise considering the sport and select ing men for its organization. . From all industrial centers there is assurance of earnestness and every establishment is hrhting of semi-professional and league men being available. v One section of the county has sev eral men who have played In the South ern league and there is a liberal dis trlbution of sandlot and city league men in other quarters. O. A. Y AGGIES TO ENTER C. TO BE WELL REPRESENTED AT INDOOR MEET HERE. Men Will Compete in All Event With Possible Exception of Shot put If 12-Pound Shot I Used. Right Off the Bat. i John Hummel, for many years with i the Brooklyn club, and last season first ' baseman for the Buffalo Internationals, is now playing an outfield position for the San Francisco club. I Sam Crawford has made a fine start with the Los Angeles club of the Pa- 1 cific Coast League. His fielding, 1 throwing and batting were features in 'the first game that he. worked. I Little Rock fans are very enthusias ! tic over the team that Kid Eiberfleld has lined up, and they figure that the ! team will play an important part in the coming pennant chase. I - Chief Bender insists that he can i make mora money pitching semi-pro-. fcssional ball in and around Philadel- phia. so he has passed up the oppor- 1 tunity to continue as major leaguer. I i I Vean Gregg's work with the Ath- letics this Spring has led some of the : critics to believe that the veteran southpaw will have another very suc cessful campaign. McGaffigan Is doing so well at sec ond base far the Phillies that Bert Nie hoff's departure is not likely to cause any gap in the club. Both Bert Shotton and John Lavan have been playing sensational ball in the Spring games of the Washington club. Shotton led the Senators in scor ing runs, Lavan led in bitting and each stole several bases. Many of the Cincinnati players had been wondering if all those stories about Ty Cobb were true, but the series between the Reds and Tigers settled any doubts. Ty showed 'em. Marty O'Toole, celebrated a few years ago as the most expensive purchase of . major league club from tne minors, rill be with the Omaha club this sea son. ' Pitcher Jim Middleton, formerly of the Giants, has announced that he Is I OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, Corvallis, April 20. (Special.) O. A. C. is going to be well represented in the big indoor military and open field meet to be held In the Ice Palace at Portland April 26. Men will be entered in every event, with the possible exception of the shotput. It is understood here that a 12-pound shot is to be used, and if this is the case. Coach Pipal Is not sure that he will enter any man in that event, as the 16-pound shot Is the only one used In intercollegiate meets,, and the meet with University of Oregon is only a week away. Green, Carter and Mattox will be the entries in the sprints. Scea will be the entry in the 440-yard run in all prob ability. Captain Coleman will take care of the 880 and mile for O. A. C. Reynolds will also enter in these events With the second week of Interscho- lastic baseball over, Washington High School is leading the league with three wins and no defeats and seems to have an edge on the championship race, but as the East Side team has six games yet to play, it is too early to predict who will win the coveted play. Up to date Washington has met and trimmed James John, Christian Brothers and Columbia. The Columbia team was a big favorite over Washington in their contest Friday and ui until the eighth inning lived up to expectations. In tho eighth Bob Tucker, the Columbia twlrl er, made an ascension and the Wash ington tossers slammed in five runs be fore . the fireworks were over. The eighth inning marked Tucker's retire ment, in favor of Robinson. Columbia staged a ninth-inning rally, bringing in four runs, but failed to tie the score, losing out 10 to 9. Scott, the big Washington pitcher lias won all three games for Washing ton and, along with Thompson, of Franklin, looks to 'be the best bet 1" the slabeter line in the league. Al though a trifle unsteady at times. Scott always manages to strike out his man at the right time and keep himself out of the hole. Ed Thompson, the Quaker pitcher. fanned 12 men in the Franklin-Commerce game and played a good game. Thompson is inclined to streaks of wildness, but has the faculty of get ting out of a bad hole and looms up big. , Catcher Show Up Well. , In the catching department, Rogo wsyf of Commerce, and Tucker, of Franklin, look the beet up to date. Both Tucker and Rogoway have an unerring peg, and in the Franklin Commerce game there was not a passed ball chalked. up-agaiustither catcher. Gerth Cole, of Lincoln, and Johnny Keating, of Columbia, seem to be the class of the shortstops in the first games. . At first base. "Dude" Hitchcock, of Washington; Jrwin Cole, of Lincoln, and Dunbar, of Christian Brothers, have come through with eome classy playing. No sensational second-sacKers nave come to light in the first two weeks of play, but Morris Rogoway, of Lincoln, looks good. Neither has any nrst- rate third baseman stepped lnto tne limelight Brost, of Christian Broth ens, has played a fairly consistent game. In the outfield, Jack itealng, or Christian Brothers, and Ed Murphy, of Columbia, loom up the best, .h-eatlng-is playing an exceptionally good game. Benson Tech has a well oaiancea team and should give the other teams in the league a run for their money. In their game against Christian Broth ers the other day the Tech ballplayers displayed some real baseball knowl edge, and if their pitcher. Baker, gets going and settles down he will be a winner. Washington Team Beat. Washington High School has proved to have the beet all-around team up to date, and will be hard to upset. Lin coln and Franklin should both mako the Washington, team step. There will be six games played this week. On Tuesday, April 23, Columbia will meet Commerce on Multnomah Field and Christian Brothers will clash with Franklin on the East Twelfth and Davis streets grounds. Commerce lost to Franklin, 5 to 3, last week and Columbia lost to Wash ington, 10 to 9. The Commerce-Columbia game should be one of the best contests of the season, 'ine Christian and it is likely that Swan will run the I Brothers team has won one game and 880 and Bullard the mile. Spriggs, Ford and Swan will be the men enter- ng the two-mile run. Eikelman. Rad- cliff and Horner will enter in the hur dle races. Heardo will also be entered in the low hurdles if It is so he can get away from his work with the base ball team. Eikleman and Waite will be the entries in the high Jump. BASEBAIjIj game benefits Castle Rock Business Men Stage Contest to Aid Red Cross. CASTLE ROCK, Wash, April 20. (Special.) A baseball game played by the male population of the town Jor the benefit of the Red Cross, the North Side against the South Side, composed of professional and business men and high school boys, Friday brought in the sum of 880 for the fund, resulting in a victory for the South Side, with a score of 11 to 10. Quite a source of revenue was de rived from the efforts of the special po lice force to preserve order and also to protect the umpires. Even the band, headed by the Mayor, was arrested and brought in a patrol ambulance before the court, charged with not giving suf ficient music to drown the rooters. The fines went to the Red Cross fund. Business houses were closed during the game. U. of O. Medics Defeat Hill. The University of Oregon Medical College baseball team took the Hill uiiH.rv A3riemv into pAmn to the tune of 23 to S yesterday afternoon. J ketball, baseball or track may join this The feature of the day was the play- I organization, wnicn nopes to gove nonor lost one. while Franklin has won its only game of the season. Both of Tuesday's games ehould be good ones. On Wednesday, April 24, Jefferson will play Washington on Multnomah Field and Hill will play Lincoln. The grounds have not yet been chosen for the Hill-Lincoln game, but will prob ably be East Twelfth and Davis streets. The Jefferson-Washington game is nearly as big an annual affair as the Lincoln-Waehington game and will, without doubt, draw one of the biggest crowds of baseball fans of the season. Friday, April 26, will find Benson clashing with Franklin out at tho Franklin "platter" and James John meeting Christian Brothers at East Twelfth and Davis streets. This week's echedule will give Franklin and Chris tian Brothers each two games. "Tick" Malarkey's Columbia Prep ball tossers will tackle the Miller & Tracy team of the Inter-City League at the Columbia campus this afternoon at 2 o'clock.
