Ell Cates, flrat up, dropped a safe one in right field. He went out soon after wards on Smith's grounder to Kay, but Smith stayed with the game and went to second on a passed ball by Donatuie. Halley skied out to McCredle and Hirt-t-man walkpd Van Haltren. Then Eagnn came up with blood In his eve. He caught the first one under the left ear and put It where nobody could touch 't with a fishing pole. Old Van Haltren showed, that he still has much sped In his legs by chasing around three bags and landing close behind Smith. Eagan reached second easily on his hit. The game was not a bad one at all. Both Cates and 11 art man twirled in good form. Cates was either very lucky or very effective In a pinch, for nu merous times he was In a bad hole, but pulled himself out. Many Beavers got on the bases and twice in the game there was one on second and one on third with but one out. Hut Bassey, Donahue and McCredle all had an op portunity to bring in a couple of runs by hits, but they all failed to connect. The official score: OAKLAND. AB. R. H.

A movement hav lng this end In view was started last night at a farewell dinner given at the Oregon grill to Major W. A. Bethel, U. S. A., who Is one of the best known racquet experts In the northwest Major Bethel will leave for San Fran cisco tomorrow, where he will be sta tioned for an indefinite time. For tha past three years he has been stationed at Manila. Previous to that ma posi was at Vancouver. Washington. Dur lng his stay at Vancouver Major Bethel won numerous tennis tournaments in the northwest; twice he captured the championship of Oregon in singles. As ne stated last nigra, tne rareweii is not. truly a farewell for him, for he ex pects to be back to compete In tha northwest tourneys next summer and finally to make his home here when he leaves tha army. Broached by Major BsthaL The proposition to encourage tennis In the Portland schools was first mads by Major Bethel himself, during one of sev eral pleasing response which he was called upon to make. He suggested that an annual tournament for grammar school pupils be held and tnat wormy prizes be provided for tha winners. The idea was received with enthusiasm at once and Brandt Wickersham announced that hA would like the honor of donat ing a cup for the initial tourney. Walter a. uoss said mat ne wouia oe giaa iu donate a cup for the second year ana F. J. Raley announced that he wlahed to give the second prises for both years. On behalf of the Irvlngton ciud, President Jay Hamilton offered the Irvlngton courts for preliminary rounds to be played among the east side schools and on behalf of the Multnomah olukr VfmUUtU- MoUlllan offered the club courts for purposes or uie tournament Committee Is Appointed. The remilt of ths discussion waa that Messrs. Hamilton and McMillan and President R. W. Wilbur of the Portland Rowing club were elected a committee of three to make further arrangements for carrying the proposition to a suc cess. It was felt by all that no better move could be made for the raising of the standard of tennis in this section. The first grammar school tourney will probably be pulled off In the clos lng weeks of the school year next spring. , sixteen or tne roremost tennis en thualasts of Portland were present at the dinner, which was given at the Ore gon grill. The meeting was marked by tne greatest or good fellowship and continued for nearly four hours. A. B.. McAlriln. aa toastmaater. Droved grand success.

The fact waa pointed out hv aeveral that tennis" Is about the only outdoor sport that has absolutely no taint o professionalism about it. Players were urgea to continually trr to increase their variety of strokes; to practice for practices' sake and to go Into tourna ments to win. Tne nope was expressed that next year will sea a lars-er repre sentation at the Northwest and Interna tional tournaments. President McMillan mr,A T Mnrrli Dunne of the Multnomah club spoke of the Increase in the nonularitv of the club and predicted that next year uuia see a larsrer number or courts mere. jr. J.

By the bye, Atherton Is planning to leave the game within a few daya and go back into the music business. It's about time. He worked a plain bunko game when he Induced McCredle to bring him out here. And Mac showed his contempt for his home fans when he allowed the depreciated goods to stay on his shelves. A horse cannot he blamed for becoming string-halted, but he should be blamed when he pre tends that he is young and frisky. Pokorny marked his second debot with a dump-head play that Is seldom equaled In professional ball anywhere. Jimmy Smith knocked him a hot drive in the third, which he neatly gathered lnr then stood and waited, apparently Imagining that his work was dono. "Porky" could have crawled backwards and beat Smith to the bag, but he didn't start until Smith was almost there. Perhaps he thought Hartman would cover first, but as the player per formed his pick-up so close to the bag, Hartman very properly stayed in his place. The result was that Smith was safe and was credited with a safe hit. Mott could have had a base hit in the second Inning if he had run for it. He bunted to Cates and did not try to run until the pitcher Juggled the ball. Even then he almost beat It out. Mott has done that same trick before. It is a thing that should not be allowed to pass without punishment In the shape of a fine. But McCredle would probably not fine any of his better players for anything. Discipline in tha roruana ciud has become that bad. wnn mere s "three and two" on Rassey he almost Invariably strikes out. Did you ever notice It? Bassey did it twice yesterday and either time a long single would have meant two runs for Portland. , Seals Win Long Game. (Pacific Const Presi Leased Wire.) San Francisco, Sept. 11.
