' Winning the opening game Is a matter of much concern to both Managers Mc Credie and Van Haltren. If the Beavers Kiln in with It It means that Port land is at last out of -the cellar., and that Oakland has slipped, quietly Into tne piaus. For the sam reason the game at San Francisco will be watched with the same Interest. Ixs Angeles is but a few rolnts above Oakland and Portland and here Is a bare possibility that the Beavers will be In second place before the day is over. If Portland wins to day's game her percentage will ds boosted to .488. If Los Angeles, which Is now in - second place, loses to the Seals, the Angel percentage will drop to .471.

If Bobby Groom Is working right to day the opening game should go to the Beavers:' Groom has been effective against the heavy hitters so far and Oakland should prove no exception. Half the Portland team visited the Oaks yesterday. Pearl Casey caught Babe Danclg lagging when the bunch left the concert tent. Babe was de tected, so Pearl says, casting a lin- ferlng glance at one of the pretty yrolean ' warblers. Babe, of course, vigorously denies the accusation. Portland fans are anxious to see Jack Blattery in action with the willow. Ten to one there will be a silence In the grandstand when the Oakland catcher steps . to the plate.

One play which the New Torks pulled off against the Washingtons recently caused much surprise in the stands, and as it was Hal Chase who played a prom inent part in it he was given a lot of credit for having performed a most miraculous feat, in that he threw a man out going from second to third on bunt down the first base line. Chase really only took part In what is known as the "sacrifice killer. play originated by ne famous Balti more club or a few years ago. This is how it Is done: With a man on first and second and none out. It is almost a certainty that the - nex man ud will bunt. The shortstop al lows the man on second to get a good lead, then suddenly runs for the Dag, carrying the base runner back with him. As soon as the runner Is headed back for second the pitcher lays the ball right over the plate, so It can be easllv bunted. The first baseman runs In with the pitcher's motion, while the second base man covers first. If the ball is picked up clean by the first baseman, he does not have to hurry to get his man at third coming from second, for he Is going the other way when the ball Is bunted. If the ball rolls to the right side of the pitcher, he makes the play at tnird, ana r it nappens to De rum bled by the first baseman there is time enough to get the man at first base. which Is being covered by the second baseman. This Dlav Is not tried with all bat ters up, but if It Is a pitcher it is sure to so through, for they seldom know enough to switch the play, but usually carry out the orders as given them by the manager. A wise player, when he sees' the play being worked, doe not bunt, but hits, and as he has every man on the infield out of position, he has but to keep the ball on the ground to aet a hit: but.lt Is not every nlaver who thinks quick enough to switch the Is one of the plays Jennlng has g into. tne.

The fleet gelding Highball. 2:0U. now training at Memphis, looks like the coming champion. Ed Geers has placed a new contrivance bn this great trotter in the simple arrangement of an extra pair of lines hitched to a halter that has made a great difference in the geld ing's manner of going. With this har ness on, insttad of going up against the bit when he flies away In his great flight of speed. Highball lays Into the extra nose strap of the halter and con tinues on a steady stride. So far Highball has been a mile In 2:18, which was merely a Jog for him. He has grown stouter and looks so good ami aots so much better than last year that it seems as If he had every chance of becoming the next trotter .to trot below two minutes. Frank Jones has entered Highball in the big 150,000 race at Readvllle in August. Among, the other candidates In Geers' stable that look good is the giant Cana dian trotter, Kidd McGregor, standing fully 17 hands high and weighing more than 1,200 pounds. This big fellow per forms in such clever fashion that he Is expected to finish the season with a mark of 2:10 or bttter. Kldd McGregor is one of the largest If not the largest trotter In training. Mr. Radium, 2:154, and Teasle. 2:144, are the Geers' mainstays for the intermediate trotting classes. The for mer is a decidedly beautiful gelding, a grandson of Alcyone, with all the finish of that family. He raced well over the half-mile tracks two years ago, and last spring showed around 2:10. being con sidered, next to Highball, the fastest trotter here. Teasle is another one who made her reputation over the two-lap courses in 1906. having a record of 16 races lnsido the money. She was worked in 2:16 this spring. Perhaps the best liked trotter In the stable Is the 19,000 three-year-old The Harvester. Those who were of the lnior, that August Uihleln did not get i monov's worth when he purchased this youngster at the Garden last winter must acknowledge themselves wrong. He is a grand individual ana a sure trotter: not a futurity winner probably. for he has not had the chance to be that, but is a fast trotter, however. Last week he stepped the last eighth of a 2:44 mile In 16 seconds like a race horse. He Is a fine galted colt and wears, besides an ordinary harness. quarter nnd shin boots. In action or repore he Is a picture and If he were to develop into nothing faster than a 2:20 trotter he was not dear at 39,000. American League Games. At Philadelphia R. H. E.

Many beers have an acrid flavor; others are too "hoppy"; others are bitter; others are heavy and some are made to SpLL, re gardless of taste, quality or its effect upon health. Often one brand tastes one way today, another tomorrow. All beers are pure, but their QUALITY is questionable.
