Swaggart of Lexington, Oregon, was taken the other day by Kay Winters. The big. chestnut geld ing although raised In eastern Oregon Is not known locally. Last fall at the Portland horse show, the agile fellow won first prise In the hunters' class by clearing every hur dle in grand style something that none of the 12 other thoroughbreds did. His victory was all the more pleasing In view of tho fact that he carried the only lady rider In the event, Mrs. Rupert J. Chlpman, who rode aside. . , . When Oregon Pride Bailed gracefully over tho obstruction shows he waa rid den by Dr. Chlpman,- The picture is so clear that not only are the drawn mus cles "and determined look oiu tha horse revealed, but the tense expression on the face of the rider Is clearly shown. Dr. Chlpman haa had the animal in charge all winter and haa tried hia lumping -ability on several occasions. His hoofs missed .the - top board by nearly: two feet, proving that he Is a high Jumper of exceptional merit. He has never been entered In the high lumps before but has been showing so much class of late that he will probably ' ,".VJ ill... U.A h . along with his hunting work.

Sainpolis At Vancouver, Rankin At 8t. Johna. Prevost At Salem. Troy Myers, the diminutive, 'short stop for the East Side "Commuters," Is suffering with a sprained tendon In his throwing arm ana may be out of the game for several weeks. , , Manager Bay of the Alblna "Tour ists" is much elated over the signing up of Wen French, the ex-Paclflc Coast league twlrler. French will . be a strong prop to the Alblna team and will cut down some of ther batting av erages before the season closea. The pennant race Is fairly on and to the msn on the 'topmost seat in the bleachers looks like a -triangular sprint between Went Portland, St.- Johns and Woodbr.rn. with the West Slders some what In the lead. However, the Milli ners have played " only three games, less than any team in the league, and have many more to play before the re sult can be attained. . St. Johns and WooJburn are each strong factors and are continually strengthening their original. - lineup. East Portland and Salem are each to be reckoned with, as these teams have not struck their stride. Both have fast aggregations and when once ' they . get things to breaking their way ' the lead ers will not have such an easy time of it. t .Vancouver Is snother' team that looks like a dark horse. Individually, the team is strong but as yet It does not show team strength. This will come about in a few weeks. The same may be said of both Oregon City and Al blna. Another month will - see the teams mora evenly balanced and a pretty fight on for keeps. Tha weeding oatproBese on all teams has commenced. Extra men and unde sirables are -being released by the dif ferent managers, two or three have jumped their contracts and others have quit. It seems to be the object of each manager to carry about 13 men on his team. West Portland has 'a' pretty choice collection of ex-leaguers and profes sionals, with Howard. Fay. -Drennan, Schmeer and Johnson la nnlforni. . .. Woodborn has secured another pro fessional twlrler In the person of Har mon.
