Today will mark the seventh week
f baseball In the Columbia-Willamette
Shipbuilders' League. Up to date the
league has been a big success and the
Eunday games have been drawing phe
nomenal crowds to the shipbuilders'
parks in St. Johns, Vancouver and St.
Helens.
The Grant Smith-Porter team ha
beeii playing steady, consistent ball and
is leading the league with five wins
and has yet to have a defeat chalked
up against them. Eddie- Yates is man
aging the team and has been getting
excellent results from all of his play
ers. His team has not been winning
any games by enormous scores, but
has been making enough runs to keep
it up in front and defeat some of the
best teams in the league without any
strenuous effort.
Leaders Meet Comfoot Today.
The league leaders will play the
Cornfoot team in the feature game of
a double-header at the St. Johns park
today. Supple-Ballin will play Nor-
wesco in the other contest. The Sup
start as soon as possible after the
first game and will go the full nine
innings, barring rain or an earth
quake. Charley Moore has one of the best
aggregations in the league represent
ing the Cornfoot yards and should
make things interesting for Eddie
Yates crew this afternoon. Moore has
been lining up some classy players each
week and now has a formidable array
of ball talent working for Cornfoot.
"Suds" Sutherland will work in the
box for Cornfoot against Barham for
Grant Smith-Porter.
Two Thousand Fane Expected.
Last Sunday's double-header at St.
Johns drew betwteen 500 and 600 fans
and this Sunday's bill is expected to
attract close to 2000. The Grant
Smith-Porter team has a big follow
ing, the biggest in the league.
It is estimated that 2500 people
crowded the St. Helens ball park last
Sunday to watch Grant Smith-Porter
tangle with the McCormick team, the
former winning out in a hard-fought
contest, 6 to 3. Two boatloads of
Portland shipbuilders and their friends
Journeyed down the Columbia to wit
ness the battle, not counting those
that took the early train for St. Hel
ens and others who went by automo
bile. Although the game between Supple
Ballin and Norwesco will not greatly
affect the situation in Europe, it
should be an even contest and each
team has its followers. Manager Bill
Russell, of the Northwest Steel Com
pany team, will make a supreme ef
fort to get out of the cellar and has
been putting his team through some
hard paces the past week.
Vancouver to Have Game.
Foundation, which is holding down
second place, will play Peninsula in
Vancouver. The Foundation team was
burning up the league until they
struck McCormick several weeks ago
and lost out in 12 innings by the score
of S to 5.
Last Sunday Foundation was travel
ing in high and scored 26 runs against
Supple-Ballin and made 22 hits. Penin
sula has a good-looking team and they
are improving as the season passes.
Standifer-Clarkson will make the
down-the-river trip today to tackle
McCormick in St. Helens. The Van
couver fans have the idea firmly in
their heads that Standifer-Clarkson
cannot be defeated and are confident
that the Vancouver team will take
Kddle Mensor and his rivet slingers
down the line.
The Standifer'-Clarkson employes
have chartered the Joseph Kellogg to
take them to the City of Destiny.

SCHOLZ SPEEDIEST MAN ON
TRACK TODAY, SAYS DUFFY
King of 100-Yard Men Predicts Great Future for Century Performer
From Missouri After Seeing Him in Action.
NEW YORK, N. Y.. May 18. (Spe
cial.) It is refreshing to hear an
old-timer "hand if to one of the
younger generation. This thing seldom
happens In track and field athletics.
The old boys seldom see the cracks of
the present day In the light of "best
evers." With the veterans it's usually
case of "Well, he's a good kid, per
haps, but he couldn't run with So-and-
so, who was running in my time."
All of which takes the mind of the
athletic reporter back to the recent
relay games of the University of Pens.
sylvVnla, which were held at Franklin
Field, Philadelphia. It was just be
fore the final heat of the special 100
yard dash, in which Ganzenmuller. of
Penn state and Scholz, of Missouri,
were to have it out. The ord-timers
along the track were speculating on the
chances of the Easterner and his sturdy
litle rival from the West, not a little
real money being risked on the deci
sion. In the crowd that was watching the
runners as they warmed up before the
start was Arthur Duffey, the great lit
tle sprinter of a decade and a half ago.
who was the first, and perhaps the
only, amateur to run 100 yards In 9 8-5
seconds. "Which do you like. Duff?"
asked a bystander. "That boy Scholz
looks like the winner to me," answered
Duffey as he puffed on a. big black
cigar just as nervously as though he
was going to start in that race himself.
"Then Duffey proceeded to tell why he
favored Scholz's chances, his talk being
nothing short of a glowing tribute to
the little sprinter from the University
of Missouri: "This boy is the smoothest
thing in the way of a sprinter that I
have seen in many a day," said Duff.
"He can run a little, believe me. While
he gets away fast and travels through
the first SO In great style, Scholz al
ways has something left for the final
burst, a thing which is lacking In so
many of our recent sprinters. I noticed

The first race, cruiser scratch, has a
cup donated for it, which is known as
the mystery cup. The trophy will be
kept veiled until presented to the win
ner. All prizes will be presented to the
winners of first, second and third places
at a party which will be staged at the
clubhouse on Decoration day evening.
The entertainment committee is ar
ranging a regular "affair" for the even
ing and promises a "live" time. The
presenting of the prizes will be just
one of the features.
Kirat Cruise Date Set.
The first cruise of the 1918 season
will be held on June 1 and 2 (Saturday
and Sunday), at Magoon's bar. two miles
below Oregon City. The entertainment
committee again comes to the front and
has a great programme and a number
of contests on the tapis to keep those
who go on the initial cruise busy.
An affair which is attracting a lot of
attention and creating a good deal of
interest among the members of the Mo
torboat Club and their friends is the
big dance and party which will hold
the boards at the clubhouse on Wednes
day evening. May 22. It will be a big
get-together event and will get things
under way for a great year. Wednes
day night's party and dance will pave
the way for the year and get the mem
bers warmed up to what will follow in
the line of outdoor cruises and dancing
parties and the like at the clubhouse
this Spring and Summer.

EUGENE, Or., May 18. (Special.)
Dr. J. M. Miller today won the final

C. D. Rorer. 5 up and S to go. The

the air in their frantic efforts to get
more speed out of their legs, Scholz's
form was near to perfection right
through the tape. I predict that he will
beat Ganzenmuller badly through the
last 40 yards."
The race turned out exactly as Duf
fey predicted. Scholz and Ganzenmuller
raced on even terms for about B0 yards.
Here the Westerner Increased his speed
and "Ganzy," in trying to hold the
pace, lost his form completely, and
was finally beaten by fully three yards
by the little dasher from Missouri.
After the race Duffey handed Scholz
further praise: "There's no question
about that boy being the fastest sprint
er on the track today," said the former
champion. "The race he has just run
proves him to be a sound 10-secorrd
man. I can see no good reason why he
should not do better than that even
under perfect conditions. He is the
most promising sprinter that Ihave
seen in years."
There were those In the crowd who
watched Scholz run at the Penn relays
who remarked the similarity of his
racing style to that of Arthur Duffey.
This train of thought may have been
Duffey's as well, but he modestly re
frained from giving voice to such an
opinion. Scholz, like Duffey, makes two
distinct efforts in running a sprint. His
first is to get away to a lightning start,
and his second is to race his opponents
into losing their form through the last
40 yards of the race. But, perhaps,
the greatest similarity between the form
of the new phenom from the West and
that of the New Englander Is their man
ner of finishing.
Duffey always plunged through the
tape. His body was always inclined
forward as he neared the worsted, and
thus he avoided that slight loss of mo
mentum that marks the work of so
many sprinters, who "tie up" with their
finishing burst and lose many close
decisions. Scholz has the very same
style to his finish, and it was this, more
than anything else, that enabled him
to outclass such an excellent sprinter
as Ganzenmuller in what may prove to
be the feature sprint race of the year.

Iron Joe' McGinnlty's Arrival' Willi
Vancourex Gives AI Tip and Ha
Beats Management to It hj
Quilting on Own Account.
VANCOUVER. B. C. Mar IS. (Spas,
claL) The big question now facing
Bob Brown and Jimmy Hamilton, pilots
of the Vancouver baseball team, is.
Who will play first bass for the Beav
ers? When Pitcher Al Glpe and Klrsi
Baseman Gilbert Stokke jumped f
team at Spokane on Monday they eer
talnly threw a wrench Into the smooth,
working- machine, which was Just get-4
tins: fairly started.
Stokke absence is the worse felt.
As a pitcher, big Al Glpa wa through,
and he knew it, and the newspapers
knew It. and the fans would have. found
out mighty soon. His speed, was gone,
and, as he never had curves enough to
get away with a slow delivery lika
"Slats" Slattery's. he knew that his
pitching days were over. Gipe was a
very valuable player, however, for h
figures to hit well above .300. and would
still have made a fine outfielder or
first baseman. Last year his arm wentt
back on him early in the eeason anl
he played the outfield like a veteran.
The direct reason for his leaving tha
team was tha acquisition of "Iron Joe"
MoOinnlty, ex-b'g- league twlrler and
one of the stars of the old North vest
League. Gipa thought that he likely
would ba released to make room for
McGinnlty, ao he beat 'em to It and quia
first.
McGinnlty Is not the only rew twlrler
secured in an effort to bolster tha
Beavers' weak pitching staff. Pitcher
Tally has been turned back to tha Loa
Angeles club to make room for Rex
Hydorn, who joined the learn at Spo
kane on Wednesday from San Antonio.
Hydorn ranked .500 in wins vlth Butte
last year, and as it was his first ex
perience In professional ball, he figures
to go stronger this season.
Stokke's reason for flr-lng the coop la
somewhat problematical. He was tha
best fielding first basemen In tha
league, but his batting was painful. At
best he could not get above .250, while
for his work so far this year he hit
around .130. He has obtained a posi
tion in the shipyards at Seattle.
Roy Brown, second baseman, has been
transferred to the initial sack for tha
present, but the fans are not fran
tically enthusiastic over the prospect-
Brown, while a heavy hitter and fast
baaerunner, is a weird fielder, and his
adventures at first are awaited with
anxiety. Because of ttokke's departure,
Al Cook and Rollle King, the two short
stops who were fighting fcr the posi
tion, ara now both aura of steady Jobs.
Cook will fill Brown's place at second,
with King on tha fast ;atch.
It is rumored that Charlia Stewart
later may be brought In from the out
field to play first, and Brown sent out
to chase flies.
a a a
Despite tha fact that the !00 men
who were thrown out of work Wednes
day, when a good part of Coughlan'a
steel shipyards went up In a 12,000,000
fire, have not yet returned to work,
both of the company's baseball teams,
one entered in the city and the other
in the Commercial League, are playlns
out their schedules. Officials are tak
ing especial car that ne.ther team la
disbanded until tha yards ara re
opened. a

in company with Mickey Ion, handles
