Appears. About 600 fans took a toehold on their seats at Vaughn-street Park yes terday afternoon and watched the Portland Buckaroos see-saw their way to a 4-to-2 victory over Aberdeen in the fifth came of the series. The game developed into a real pltcher"s battle, with 'Kewpie-' Clow outpitching Mick Shader. Clow was in rare form and let Aberdeen down with three, scattered hits and retired five via the strikeout route. But to John L. Sullivan must be given the credit for yesterday's Buck aroo victory. Aberdeen was breezing along; with a one-run lead until the eighth innlnp, when, with two gone and Fisher and Lee on the bags pray ing for a base hit, Sullivan slammed the ball into the left-field bleachers for a home run, scoring Fisher and Lee ahead of him. It was the first ball Shader fed Sullivan and was right in the groove. Aberdeen was lucky, indeed, to break into the run column. Egan was safe at first in the initial inning when Clow failed to cover first base and Egan's grounder to Fisher went for a hit. Egan stole second, took third on a wild pitch and scored on a passed ball. Portland started scoring in the f in t-i Vi vh.n li i Ji n .tnplAfl tnnk . n ! ond on a bunt. Atole third and scored on Pembroke's single. The Black Cats annexed their second tally and took the lead in the seventh, when Bogart was safe on Kibble's er ror, stole second and scored on Dick Nelson's single to center. With Shader pitching beautiful ball. It looked bad for the Buckaroos until the eighth, when singles by Fisher and Lee, coupled with an error by Hester, made things ready for Sullivan's four ply swat into the left-field bleachers, scoring three runs. Today's double-header starts at 1:30 o'clock. Score: ' Aberdeen ' ! Portland BHOAE! B H O A E 0 2 0 0 3 14 10 1 0 0 0 110 0 2 -5-anL 1 1-3 1 0 16 0 0 10 1 0 2 2 0 Altac'cm 4 0 0 OOSmlth.l..

Before a crowd that rivaled the record throng of the opening game here Vancouver! today pulled the fat out of the fire in the eighth inning, when the score stood Z to 1 for Tacoma. and wound up the game by landing four men across the plate in that inning, holding Tacoma scoreless for the remainder of the game. Siattery. of Vancouver, was the feat ure of the game, not only In pitching but -also at bat, getting three hits. Score: I Vancouve Pat Ryan, the world's champion weight thrower, passed the physical examination for the draft the other day. Pat told the writer a couple of months ago that he was anxious to get the call. "I have a new kind of a grenade that I throw Just like a ham mer. I can toss it accurately about 300 feet, it carries fully five times the charge of 22-ounce hand grenades and. believe me, I can wipe out a full regi ment with a few dozen of them," said Pat. Genial Pat will probably be sent to Camp Union for his preliminary mil itary training. Lafayette College athletic team proved too strong for the Stevens In stitute aggregation in the dual track and field meet held at Castle Point, Ho boken, last Wednesday. The final score was: Lafayette, 81; Stevens, 31. "Ted" Meredith writes from "over there" that nearly all sports are popu lar with the soldier boys excepting lawn tennis. Baseball, football, track and field is what the fellows like most, says the old Olympic champion. BY JAMES J. RICHARDSON. Starting Tuesday at 3 o'clock the Portland Buckaroos will entertain the Seattle Giants at the Vaughn-street park. There will be no game Monday afternoon, according to mi announce ment last night by Judge McCredle, but a double-header will be played Sunday instead. David Dugrlale's Seattle warriors are leading the Pacific Coast International League race and have been playing, a good brand of baseball. The addition of Lee Dempsey, former Portland re cruit first Backer, and a shortstop named Leathers, turned over to Se attle by the Los Angeles club, seems to have put added "pep" into tho Giants" playing, and as a result they are travel ing at full speed.. Bill Leard, v. ho managed Seatth? last season, is again at the helm of the. Giants. Leard was sold to Brooklyn last Fall, but failed to cut the mustard. He is playing a bang-up game for Se attle this season and is instrumental in keeping the Giants at the top of tho win column. The Portland fans will have their first real glimpse of Lee Dempsey in action. The Rock island recruit first sacker was recently sold to Seattle, and. from reports has been going like a. house afire. He is smacking the ball at a great clip and Is cutting up some thing wonderful around the Initial cushion. Of course it was impossible for Dempsey to shove Manager Fisher off the bag, but the lad has all the ear marks of being a good ballplayer. a The Buckaroos have been making a pretty fair showing during the present week against Aberdeen, but there are spots in the Buckaroo makeup that need attention if the club expects to be up in the race at the finish. Unless Dicki Cox gets back into the harness within the next week Judge McCredie will b forced to go out into the market and get a catcher. There have been 10 stolen bases charged against Pembroke In five games, and while George admits that his arm is not 'n shape, that does not help matters any. Ritter, at short, has been responsible for a number of games slipping away from the Buckaroo clutches, but his heart and soul are In the game and(ho is a . willing worker. He makes some nice stops and then "gums" the play ut with a wild heave.. He has steadied himself during the present series to some extent and may improve. Unless he comes down to earth and also picka up in his hitting it is doubtful !f ho will be playing regularly at shortstop. We must admit, after watchltiir Charlie Hollocher cavort at short, that Voung Ritter is trying to till. some Job, but he looks good at times and Man ager Fisher is showing a lot of patience with him. Fred Haney expects to get into tho game when the team returns from its first road trip. Haney was hurt the first day he played in an exhibition game in Portland. He stopped a pitched ball with his left wrist, fracturing one of the bones, and has been on the dis abled list ever since. The players and Bill Fisher say that Haney Is fast as chain-lightning around second base and will add 100 per cent to the team's ef ficiency when he gets back into har ness. The most pleastng item noticeable during the present series has been tha hard and timely hitting of the Buckaroo outfield. John L. Sullivan has been rap ping the ball hard and often. Cliff Lea Is hitting his stride and with Lyman Smith taking a nice cut at the ball 4t looks like the outer gardeners are ready to do "their bit" in putting the Buck aroos up around the top of the per centage column.

One of the greatest crowds that ever wit nessed the Kentucky Derby today saw W. S. Kilmer's recent acquisition, Kx- terminator, ridden by Jockey W. Knapp, win the 44th renewal of that classic handily by one length from K. t. Alexander's Escoba. Eighth lengths back came Viva America, who had set the early pace, while the public choice, A. K. Macomber's War Cloud, was fourth. The race was run over a sloppy track and, under the circumstances, the time of 2:10 4-5 was good. Exterminator's victory came as a great surprise to most of the spec tators, as few had conceded the gelding a chance. The start was good. Exterminator getting off in fifth place. At the mile he was second by four lengths. Com ing into the stretch he moved up on Esoba, and In the final drive he moved i away, finishing with a generous length to spare. Esoba was second at the start and ran a good race throughout. Viva America got off first. At the three - quarters, however, she had dropped to third place. War Clou-d went to the post a heavy favorite. Behind -War Cloud. Lucky B., James T. Clark, Swell Combs and American Eagle finished in the order named. The gross value of the race was J18.475, of which J14.700 went to the winner. Morton. Snoup. . Sullivan Smith.. I.ee Arka'bure- 7 Cox 22 6 44 10 .227 40 .25 S .210 37 7 .11-9 272iClow....
