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. SHRINE REGATTA CARDED SKIPPERS BUSY WITH GEAR FOR BIG SEASON". Trio of 4 0.50 Mile Speed Boats Ready to Kiss River and Start Fast Career. Though the weather may be erratic. 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.'

Bad Weather Conditions Prevent "Workouts for Any Other Than Pitchers; Prospects Good. 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 v. . t u n .. . r r nf ";.: "rt. t 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. RACQUET WIELDERS TURN OUT Willamette Juniors Show Well In Pre-Season Play. WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY. Sa lem. Or., April 10. (Special.)
