The Portland Baseball association
teams are off to another start after
several Sundays of rain and will stage
at least nine pre-eeason contests today
on the diamonds of the city which are
in playing- condition. While some of
the teams are battling each other the
remaining; outfits of the association
will be strenuously engaged in going
through the various stages of spring
.workouts. Among the latter cla-s
might be mentioned Bill Heales' Klrk
patricks, stars of many a city battle,
who will train on East Twelfth and
Davis streets; the Kerr-Glfford ag
gregation, another team that is com
posed almost entirely of men of
league experience; the team repre
senting the Loyal Legion of Loggers
and ' Lumbermen; the Montgomery
Ward club; the Union Pacific team
and the. Portland Lumber company.
Today's Gaines Tryonts.
The games scheduled for today are
In the nature of tryouta for the va
rious berths in the City and Inter-City
leagues. Under the plan adopted for
the operation of the semi-pro teams
by the managers who constitute the
Portland Baseball association, every
team will be placed absolutely accord
ing to strength, thus doing away with'
former methods of classifications such
as "commercial," "fraternal." etc. A
committee, whose duties are to prop
erly classify the teams, will witness
the teams in action, scan the roster
of players together with their records
and investigate the strength 'of the
club or organization backing the
teams, and in this manner endeavor
to get their approximate playing and
financial strength. This committee is
composed of Bill Healee. pilot of sev
eral championship teams and an ac
knowledged authority on ball in its
every phase; Mr. Miller, manager of
the North Paciflo Dental college, Mr
Lowry of the Hesse-Martin company.
Secretary Simonsen and President
Routledge of the association.
The Intercity league will be com
posed of four or five out-of-town
teams and of many from the city.
Astoria and Hillsboro have been
granted franchises, and the other
teams remarin to be selected. Among
those mentioned for franchises are
Woodburn. St. Paul, Camas. McMinn
vllle and Newberg. Those In the city
who are desirous of playing In this
league and from whom the four or
five teams will be selected are the
- Portland Iron Works, Montgomery
, Ward, P. R. L. & P. Co., Kerr-Oif ford,
' Multnomah Guards, Klrkpatrlcks. Co
. lumbia Park, Central Door & Lumber
Co., Peninsula Grays and one or two
others who are as yet undeolded.
Winners to Play Series.
There are several teams in the as
sociation who will undoubtedly be of
equal strength to those in the Inter
city league. These will go into class
AA of the Portland City league and
the winner will battle with the team
that leads the Inter-City circuit for
state honors. The winner of this con
test will contend for northwest honors
with the team which wins the rag in
the Tacoma-Seattle titular series,
these games to be staged in Portland
and in one of the sound cities.
Twenty-seven teams have signed
the membership roll of the Portland
Baseball association to date and at
least three more are expected to sign.
The last date on which this can be
done is Thursday of this week when
the association will hold its regular
, weekly meeting In the Multnomah
Guard club rooms. Chamber of Com
merce building. The league season
officially opens Sunday, May 2, but
a pre-season game, of which it is
planned to make a gala affair, will
be staged on the Vaughn - street
grounds by the Multnomah guard and
parade will precede the game, which
' is to be headed by a band and par-
- ticipated in by the other teams who
are members of the association.
Billy' Speas and his Regina club
;. team have taken possession of the
- Vaughn-street grounds and are
'"actively engaged In. training for the
" 1920 season." Today he will meet
'J the strong Honeyman Hardware toss-
ers in a practice . game and Monday
. at 1;30 he will - play the Portland
i'. Iron works squad.
.
The Arleta team Is reorganizing for
' the season under the management of
R. F. Brookes, who originally In
tended piloting the destinies of the
Eugene team, but who has returned to
his first love upon the solicitation
' of players and fans. Brookes has
. practically the same line-up this year
as last and should make a good
, showing.
Today's official schedule, given out
'. from the secretary's office, is as fol
lows: American Can c'ompany vs.
.. Peninsula Grays, Columbia Park, 10
A. M. ; Albina Athletic Club vs. Ore
con City Woolen Mills, Montgomery

T nomah Guard vs. Harlecans, Jefferson
' high school. 2 P. M., and Portland
Iron Works vs. Forestry Park, Co
lumbia Park, 2:30 P. M.
A scarcity of umpires apparently
prevails. At least 15 oficials will be
needed by the Portland Baseball as-
- soclation this year, and as yet Secre
.. tary Simonsen has applications from
- only four. Those wishing to officiate
should get in touch with him at once
and those who desire tryouts may re
port to him at the Multnomah Guard
clubrooms at 9:20 this morning.
Here's a deep one. Umpires want
more money. Well, let 'em call

McGBAW LIKES NEW
Sew York Giant Boss Glad Ban
Put on Freak Pitching.
John McGraw expresses himself as
j being pleased with the action of the
joint rules committee of the major
league in abolishing freak pitching
deliveries. "This trick pitching," he
said recently, "added nothing to the
speed and It is a mighty good idea to
get rid of it. The application of for
eign substances to the ball was un
fair to the batters, and reduced the
hitting. This made the practice un
popular with the fans, which was suf
ficient to warrant its abolition. When
the spit ball, too, is eliminated the
Giants will not ruffer, for Phil Doug
las Is the only pitcher on the club who
uses the spitter r.nd he has enough
stuff aside from- that to get by.

with the snow snowln', and 1 hal
hallln' and the rain rainln' ' that
spring is in the offing, signaling for
pilot, is evident by a trip to the
moorings of the Portland Motor Boat
club. The sound of saw and ham
mer, scraping of sandpaper, discord
ant but merry whistling and resound
ing laughter are sure signs that old
man winter is packing up. Skippers
hurrying to the club with packages
marked "paint and coils of new rope
being delivered to the keeper are un-
dlsputable signs that the boats are
being dolled up for the big event.
The big event is the regatta to be
pulled off at the Oaks on Wednes
day, June 23, during the Shrine con
vention. The programme as outlined
by Commodore Carl Johnston Is to
transport ihe Imperial potentate and
his divan from the municipal landing
at Stark street to the Oaks on Fred
Vogler's 70-foot yacht, the Wisdom.
formerly the property of Rex Beach
and used by him on his many trips
to Alaska.
The Wisdom will be escorted by the
fleet of the motor boat club and other
boats that may wish to accompany
them, and on arriving at John Cor
dray's playgrounds the afternoon will
be spent in races and aquatic sports.
The race that is creating the great
est interest is the free-for-all cham
pionship of the Pacific coast. Two
entries have already been made, one
being the old reliable Vogler Boy III
and the other a new boat being built
by Johnny Wolff especially to beat
her." "if a prize sufficiently large to
pay expenses of the trip is offered
it Is expected that boats from San
Francisco ai.d Seattle will take a
chance.
Another race that is causing ex
citement around the club is the 225
S25 ciibic inch piston displacement
contest and already six entries have
been made. A perpetual cup has
been put up by Commodore Johnston
as a trophy for this event and every
man who is building a new racer has
his eye on it.
In addition to these main events
there will be a runabout and cruiser
races and in the interval between
races, canoe tilting canoe races, tub
races, greased pole contests, surf
board riding and fancy diving.'

UVTVERSITY OF OREGON. Eu
gene, April 10. (Special.) With Nick
Williams and his Moose Jaw crew on
deck. Coach "Syy" Huntington has
laid plans for a strenuous week of
practice games with the Western
Canadian league team for his Uni
versity of Oregon varsity squad next
week. A game with the dominion
players is billed for every evening of
next week., weather permitting, and
both teams hope to obtain results
from the pre-season series.
. Nick Williams and four or five
of his team arrived in Eugene Thurs
day, and the remainder of the squad
straggled in during the remainder of
the week. The Moose Jaw outfit was
scheduled to tangle with the Lemon
Yellow tossers the remainder of this
week, but rainy weather held up
practice for the Oregon varsity, and
made the Cemetery ridge diamond a
mud lake.
With the moundsmen getting most
of the benefit of the daily workouts
under present conditions. Coach Hunt
ington has been able to get a fair
line on their prospects. Art Berg,
letter-man twlrler on the 1818 var
sity; Karl Knudson and Jacob Jacob
son, southpaw and right-handed
heavers of the 1917 frosh nine; Walt
Kennon. a rangy moundsman who

frosh tosser on the 1918 aggregation;
Dick Shim, diminutive Japanese horse
hide artist, and Marc Latham, who
were moundsmen for the frosh last
year, are showing up to the best ad
vantage, and "Shy" will likely Belect
his regulars from among these men.
Berg did some wonderful work on
the mound in bis former year on the
varsity and Jacobson and Knudson,
while never before members of the
varsity Bquad. are rated high because
of former experience on service teams.
Jay Fox, a member of the varsity
squad in pre-bellum days, has re
ported to Coach Huntington, and in
spite of a late start. Is making a
strong bid for a varsity berth.
Outlook for a fast infield is rosy.
and "Shy" is at present working two
sets, both of about equal caliber, from
which four regulars are to be picked.
In one, he works Captain Herm Llnd
at first. Carl Lie be at second, "Skeet
Manerud at short, and Bill Collins at
third. Llnd has had two years' varsiity
experience, while Llebe, Collins and
Manerud were members of last year's
frosh aggregation
In the other set. George Black
covers first, Francis Bellar second,
Jay Fox short and Johnny Houston
third. Black covered the initial sack
for the frosh last year, and Bellar,
who turned out only recently, has
never played baseball in college be
fore, although he has cavorted about
other diamonds. Houston held down
third for the last year's varsity.
In the receiving position, two men
are -working consistently behind the
bat, "Spike" Leslie, big tackle on this
years football team, who has re
celved for army teams, and. Vines
Jacobberger, who caught for the frosh
last year.
The outfield Is going to be strong
this year, according- to present InUl-
cations, with Bill Steers, Bill Rein
hart, Johnny Gamble, E. Wilson and
Paul Foster out for berths.
