Sergeant John Andecann of the Cleve land police department Is the author of the following "gospel true" story: "In a game at Roekford, 111., last sea son, one of tho pitchers was crosseyed. I would tell his name, only I don't rare to hurt his feelings. In the eleventh Inning the score stood 3 to 2 In favor of the home team and the visitors were at bat and the crosseyed guy was pitch ing for tho home club. The visitors had a man on first and one on thtru. I he manager sent his best pinch hitter up to bring home the two runs.

The pitcher by this time had two strikes on the batter and when he poised himself to throw the ball again he was apparently looking straight at the batter. Refore any one could realize what he was about he slammed the ball to third, catching1 the runner out hy 10 feet. The strangest thing about it was that the batter thought the pitcher was looking at him and when the. ball sped across to the third bag toe hatter struck at it and was, of course, called out on three strikes.

The program committee of the Coun try club and Livestock association will ask the Portland Automobilo club to arrange for a scries of events to be run off during the harness races and livestock show to be held here the week of September 21-26. The proposition is beins formulated and will probably be presented to the meeting of the di rectors of the association tomorrow af ternoon at 4 o'clock. The scheme is to leave open numbers In the daily race cars of the week in which speed tests or exhibitions by the automobile enthusiasts, either amateur or professional, may be made. It has long since been assured by experts that the track of the Country club will be as fast If not faster than any on the North Pacific Fair circuit this fall because of the careful and expensive construction of the course. This will make a strong appeal to local motor ear racers for the reason that there is no track in this section for them to establish new marks in competition. Road records are not considered as hav ing any standing by the official timeis nor are any sucTi marks accepted as any criterion of the speed and endur ance Qualities of the raw entered. Fifty-Mile Auto Bace. What it Is expected to do is to ar range for a 50-mlle endurance contest for touring cars, another for 100 miles for the same class of automobiles, pro vided f course that the harness race card for each day will permit. Special events for racing cars stripped down and tuned up to record making class will also bo asked for. Other events for steamers and for electric runabouts in exhibition heats Jia,vc been suggest ed. The matter has not been taken up with the lo-al automobile club, but tho plan will be threshed out by the di rectors of the country club first, and, after It has been decided what open ings there will be In the card of har ness races, the Automobile club will be invited to participate in the pro gram and offer such prizes or premi ums as it may see fit. The only reason the Country club committee desires to have such fea tures during the week Is that it hopes to arrange for a program which will attract every class of sportsman In the northwest, to bring out the man who doesn't care much about livestock or harness races but who is thrill by the dare-devil speed contests of such men as t ovey, allace, Keats an others If favorable action is taken In this matter at tomorrow afternoon's meet lng. the directors will notify President R. I. Inman of the Automobile dub and request him to appoint a commit tee to meet with the Country club people. New York. Aug. 15. It is rumored that President Murphy of the Chicago Cubs has offered President Kbbets of the Brooklyn team Pitchers Durbln, Frnser, Mack and Lundgren for the star of the Brooklyn staff.

FEDERAL LANS FOR MOTORISTS Automobile President De sires Such Legislation Local Autoists Notes. "The condition of the motor vehicle laws throughout the Trilled States Is both Intolerable and ridiculous," says Charles Thaddeus Terry of the Ameri can Automobile association In an Inter view on the subject of automobile leg islation. "They are ridiculous because of their Inconsistent and contradictory provis ions, and .they are Intolerable because of the fact that no two states have been able to agree upon a reasonable and sane law which would regulate the automobile as it should be regulated and at the same time conserve the rights of pedestrians and users of horse-drawn vehicles. "Without fair laws good roads are of no use to the automoblllst. In 81 states we find registration of motor vehicles Is required. In each state there Is a different requirement, and the fees range from 25 cents to $25. In six states the local authorities may require registration in their particular localities. In 10 states a license to operate is required In addition to reg istration. In eight states the registra tion and license laws of the other states are entirely disregarded, and non-residents passing through are required to re-reglster their vehicles and pass -an examination as to their competence to drive. "The most striking illustration of ri diculous and intolerable state enact ments is to be found in the eastern states. In matters of speed and rules of the road the automoblllst is not har assed br the divergent and contradic tory state laws, but in most states he Is subject to restrictions imposed by local speei authorities. The- limitations range from four to twenty miles an hour, changing according to locality, and the automoblllst. without the slight est negligence or danger to other usara of the highway, may violate the speed laws six or eight times in a run of 60 miles. Gay Lombard and Mrs. Lombard of Portland arrived in this city a few days ago. having toured from Portland. After a short stay in this city they will con- ' tlnue on to Los Angeles.
