MANY FACTORS ARE SEEN
Will .Marty Krug Report and Will
Owner avin of Detroit Send
Tromised Men Are Questions.
BY L. H. GREGORY.
' SAXT.V IIARI., Cal., March 2
(Special.) Eight more days and the
Pacific coast league baseball season
will be under way. On the events of
those intervening eight days depends
whether Portland enters the pennant
race with some little chance for suc
cess or with no chance at all.
First, will Marty Krug report to
play second base? The temperamental
infielder has no reason- for his con
tinued failure to report except plumb
cantankerousness, for Judge Mc
Credie accepted his salary demands in
full nearly two weeks ago.
Krug was expected to report at
once after that but hasn't showed up
yet. He has given out that the out
law league promised him a ranch to
play ball with it. but Judge and Walt
can hardly be expected to sweeten the
ante by offer of a Willamette valley
farm to swing him to Portland.
Release Now la Aaked.
One thing Mr. Krug may depend on:
If he doesn't report he will find him
self high and dry tor good so far as
organized baseball is concerned. He
can report or not as he pleases, but
if he doesn't report his name will im
mediately be clapped onto the ineligi
ble list and there will be no more
league ball playing for him for five
long years.
If Krug sits up nights to figure
new plays, as. he (toes to work out
new. angles of his holdout case, he
must be one whale of a second base
man. His latest little pleasantry is
to write to Secretary Farrell, the big
man of the minor leagues, to demand
his unconditional release from Port
land on some alleged technicality.
This is evidently a stall on his part,
for nothing has happened that would
entitle him, under baseball law, to
his release.
Second, will owner Navin of Detroit
1 keep h's word, or part of his word,
and send Portland even one of those
four players he owes In return for
Suds Sutherland and Art Koehler?
Faithtnl Promise Made.
Mr. Navin faithfully promised Port
land three players for Suds Suther
land, all of whom must make rood in
the coast league, and In his fatherly
way said ' further that he would
"look out" for Portland.
An additional player is due in re
turn for the release of Koehler to
Oakland. But to date Navin has been
long on promises and short on ful
fillment. Looks now as if he were
getting the same old lemon ready to
slip to Portland. He now has it in
his power to make or break Port
land's hopes, for Walt is absolutely
dependent on him for aid.
Of the three men coming to the
Beavers from Chicago this week, one
is a third baseman and two are
pitchers. Provided Krug reports and
this .new third baseman, is the .right
stuff, that leaves Walt stijl greatly
in need of a fast fielding and hard
hitting shortstop, for though Hazen
Paton eventually will make a wonder
ful player the kid still is too inex
perienced to be expected to hold down
a regular position in his first year
of professional baseball. He actual
ly has never played a professional"
baseball game, or even in a regular
semi-professional league in his life.
- $5000 Ready for Shortstop.
VI would give $3000 in cold cash
for the right kind of a shortstop,"
said Walt yesterday. "That's how
much I need a man, and how strong
1 would go to get one who would do
the team good. B'ut you simply can't
buy ball players nowadays and there
are no good ones on the market."
And yet owner Navin of Detroit is
in honor bound to send a shortstop or
third sacker but whether he does is
quite another thing The Indications
are that he will not. The man Walt
wants is Sargent, who played third
base last season with Buffalo, but
there seems little chance just now of
his being sent here. If he goes any
where Navin probably will send him
to some other team, perhaps San
Francisco, Oakland or Los Angeles,
for he has dealings with all these
coast league clubs and every one of
them U faring better at his hands
than Portland.
Klnsdon May Have to Start.
With Kingdon on deck and his new
third sacker from the Cubs here, Walt
then wtould be ready to stand pat for
the opening of the season with just
one more good man a shortstop. Un
less he gets such a man he will have
to start with Kingdon on short. King
don has improved somewhat from last
season, but is still woefully weak in
his hitting.
Another good outfielder might help
some, though, Walt looks with favor
on his present staff of gardeners. But
here again enters the big if. In this
case his outfield looks good if Ike
Wolfer can be bought or traded from
Joplin. Walt has made Joplin a fine
fat offer for Ike but hasn't heard a
word about It yet.
Wolfer's Purchase Waited.
That is the "thirdly" of the case
and if Wolfer's purchase can be closed
this week, then the Beaver outfield
will look fair. If it isn't closed, we'd
hate to predict what the outfield
would be like, unless the Cubs should
come to the rescue with an outfielder,
Jjetroit should do the totally un
expected and send a real fly chaser
westl
With Wolfer out there, playing left
field, Dick Cox would cover center
and Art Bourg. the Tacoma gardener
who finished with Portland, last sea
son, right field. Bourg is a natural
hitter. His fielding could be im
proved, but the young fellow is going
earnestly about it to better that by
constant practice.
As utility infielder, Walt plans to
carry Walter Genin, the Spokane
youngster. Genin is a personified
speed, burst, one of the fastest kids
who ever chased a fly. but hasn't hit
much so far. With Krug on the job,
the infield then would consist of
Jimmy Poole, first base, who is a
real ballplayer and a hitter; Krug,
second, one of the smartest keystone
sackers in the coasCleague last sea
son; Kingdon, short, pending arrival
of a heavier hitter for that niche, and
the man from the Cubs at third.
The catching staff i O. K. Hard
to improve on that. Del Baker, re
covered from his appendicitis troubles
of last season, is wonderfully im
proved, Gus Fisher looks like a
youth despite his 34 years, with a
throwing arm getting stronger every
day and his batting eye undimmed.
and Rip King, the herculean Univer
sity of West Virginia youth, looks
destined to become one of the greatest
catchers In baseball after half a sea
son's experience. ,
The pitchers, too, look good with
Herman Pillette, Rudy Kallio. Harold
Poison, Sam Ross and Sylvester John
son as certain regulars, and another
right hander and a left hander com
ing from the Cubs.
This is how the Beavers' probably
will line up for the opening game
against the San Francsco Seals Tues
day week: Bourg. right field: Kruy,
second base; Wolfer, left field: Cox.
centen field: Poole, first base: New,
third baseman; Kingdon, short, and
Pillette or Sylvester Johnson pitcher.
SEA.LS BEAT STANFORD, 7-2
With Old Conch Pitching, Col-
legians Dig Right In.
MONTEREY, Cal., March 26. (Spe
cial.) With Johnny Couch, their old
coach, pitching - for the Seals, the
Stanford boys did not feel so strange
today, so they hopped in and played
a snappy game of ball. They were
beaten, 7 to 2, but they put up a stout
resistance all the way. Draper
pitched good ball for Stanford and
two of . the runs scored on him were
the result of a muff by Carver, who
dropped an easy chance in right.
- The only time Stanford could bunch
hits on Couch was in the fifth, when
Patterson and Draper connected and
Mitchell stepped in with a two-bagger.
Johnny is Just about on edge
and he asked to be allowed to work
the, full nine innings today.
The workout did him good and he
will be ready to tackle the Cubs at
San Francisco about Wednesday.
RAIXIERS HAVE 2 WORKOUTS

sensation. The veteran catchers.
Jack Adams and Tub Spencer.' are

great assistance to a fine string
of slabmen, who are eagerly await
ing the start.

Ross and Neihaus pitched for the

BALL PLOT IS LAID

St. Louis Business Man In
dieted for Fraud.1
EXTRADITION IS PLAN
Illinois Prosecutor Declares Ring
Accused of Throwing World Se
ries Will Be Prosecuted.
CHICAGO, . March 26. Carl ZorK,
shirtwaist manufacturer, and Benja
min Franklin, both of St. Louis, were
today charged by officials of the
state's attorney's office, with being
the organizers of the alleged plot
through "which Chicago White Sox
players were said to have thrown the
1919 world series to Cincinnati.
Announcement that these two men
would be formally accused was made
by the state's attorney's office after
indictments against 18 men. including
Zork and Franklin, had been rcturntd
by the Cook county grand jury, which,
today finished the second investiga
tion into the baseball scandal.
Other Llnkrd With Fraud.
Joseph J. Sullivan, known In the
case as a gambler; Louis and Bin
Levi, formerly of Dps Moines, la.,
and Abe Attell were linked with the
Zork and Franklin cases by the state's
attorney in announcing the results of
the jury investigation.
Sullivan, officials said the evidence
showed, handled operations in the
east, the Levi brothers directed the
alleged conspiracy in the central west,
with Dos Moines as headquarters, and
Attell acted as traveling agent.
Charges Cauae Sensation.
The charges created a sensation in
baseball cricles. for although Zork.
Franklin and the Levi brothers were
mentioned by witnesses before the
first grand jury which conducted its
Investigations last fall, they were not
indicted at that time. Sullivan and
Attell were indicted then, however.
Zork, Franklin, the Levi brothers
and David Zelscr were indicted today.
In addition the 13 men indicted last
fall were reindicted. These men were
Claude Williams. Eddie Cicotte, Joe
Jackson, Buck Weaver, Swede I;is
berg, Oscar Felsch, Fred Mc.VIullIn,
Chick Gandill. Hal Chase, Joseph .1.
Sullivan, Rachel Brown, Abe Attell
and Bill Burns.
Kaeh Named Right Times.
Each man was named tight times
in the indictments and each indict
ment specified three counts against
them, conspiracy to defraud, con
spiracy to do an Illegal act and ob
taining money under false pretenses.
Bail was fixed at J3000 for each
count, making $24,000 for each man.
Under the law this can be doubled,
and the state announced that the men
would be required to put up $48,000
bonds.
The state's attorney Immediately
began preparation of extradition pro
ceedings against the men indicted,
but it is not expected that the trial
will come up before fall.
Extradition la Promised. .
Robert E. Crowe, state's attorney,
announced after the Indictments were
returned that he already had started
extradition proceedings against the
men named and that every effort
would be made to apprehend them at
once. '
"There will be no Jokes about this
investigation and no dropping of
charges brought in these indict
ments," said Mr. Crowe. "We have
proceeded carefully, made sure of
every legal detail and we will not
miss our mark, which is penitentiary
sentences for the men who are
guilty."
Mr. Crowe refused to say when ths
men might be brought to trial, but
Indicated that the trial would not
start immediately.
Defrauding Players Charged.
It also was made known that the
new indictments charge the defend
ants with defrauding the White Sox
players, not in the plot, out of ap
proximately $2000 each, the differ
ence between the winners' and losers'
share in the series receipt
When the proceedings against the
seven players were drorved recently
Mr. Crowe said that the 'first inves
tigation had been bungled and conse
quently it would take six months to
prepare convicting evidence."
It was believed that le trials
would be postponed for several
months in. order to give tie state
time to gather new evidence.

ery, reported that at the Squaw lake
