Umpire' McGreevy called It a draw,
yesterday after 18 of the hardest fought
Innings In the history of the game in
, this section.-with , BUI Steen and Jack
. Lively, fighting every inch of the way.
When the ; fifteenth frame H had been
reeled off and the shadows Were aslant
' the field, Umpire McGreevy announced
that he would call tha game at the end
of the next inning. The Beavers banked
on a haiy sun in the sixteenth" to give
them a final run, but Wares, who had
been playing a great game aU day,
thwarted their efforts by pulling off a
nifty double play with the, aid of Cam-
. - Casey flays Great' Gam. -
Pearl Casey, the veteran, played one
f' , of .the greatest gfimes of his 10 years
( - of service on the' diamond. Twice he
. ; . saved the day for the homesters, onoa
In the ninth inning and again in the
! . ' eleventh. Once, when hope had- Well
. , nigh faded, bo brought the fans to their
j .feet with a glorious single to left field,
and again he drove out a long fly to
! center field that allowed a run to come
; ,1 In after It had been caught Strange to
i v relate, bis running mate around second
t ' base, Ivor Olson, made both runs. '
Time after time great fielding stunts
were pulled off that saved the plate
; from being dented by the Invaders. Now
. j Billy Spaas would cut off a -Mt and
again Tommy Sheehan vould crush Into
some well Intended play. On tha other
- side It was Wares who broke up things
: when the Beavers wer on the verge of
i crowding Lively off J, the eminence.
Wares accepted It chances perfectly,
. and some of them were most speotaou
lar. ' : ".. -..r .-:,,,;

All kinds of baseball was tried by
"Managers MoCredla and Wolverton, and
for three successive times MoCredle sent
Rapps la with 'Instructions to sacrifice,
and' thrice, did the roaring, one carry-out
the boss" orders perfectly. , -
While SfSen was touched up for more
bits than Lively during the 18 rounds,
ho kept them well scattered, except tn
hna mmn mhn thftv. hnnnhert thrM at
fl them, but only secured one run.
Oakland made two blngles in the-first
, Inning Off Steen, but Olson brought the
frame to a close when he cut off Cam
, eron's grounder and retired ,4the side
with Rapjja. , v
Both club batUed along till the fifth
frame. With Swander gone, Mltze dou
bled to left field bleachers. Llvely'sout
did not allow him to take third,' but he
raced home on Maggart's double to the
same territory. -

" Wares Singled and stole .second, but
Maggart was held on third, dying there
when Eheehan retired Hogan, In the
sixth round Wolverton's grounder was
prettily handled by Sheehan, while Billy
Speas backed up against the "Bull Dur
ham" sign after a bard run and gath
ered Cutshaw's skyer lu.
Although Portland had been hitting
the ball, nothing In the line of a score
was apparent until, tha. ninth. Qlaon
drew a pass ang Rapps sacrificed. Fish
er's out put the shortstop on third, and
he was there when Casey came to the
"Sat. Although Lively put on all sorts
of steam there was "ease in Casey's
manners," and, picking out a nice one, he
slammed it; into left field for. a long
blngla that scored Olson. Tommy Shae-

Hi
mm
It - would be a hard Job to pick
out .all the great stops and throws that
were made in that game, so we won't
say a word to anyone about it
'
Speas made a great oatoh of Cut
shaw's drive (I thought I wasn't going
to say a word) that looked as though
it waa going to hit the Bull Durham
sign. Bill went back to the fence after
it and well, you know the rest
Such a crazy mob of fans and
fanettes. I never saw saw the beat of
It in my life. I was as dippy as the
rest Even Murphy was screaming With
delight 'when the Beavers tied the score
in both Instances.
Olson played great ball around that
short station. Ho cut off numerous hits
with his great work. He also lined out
a few hits which figured in the score.
He stole third when everybody waa
asleep. ,
Casey's drive In the ninth tied the
score for the Beavers. Casey went to
third on Sheehan's drive. Oh, there
were ever so rrjany blngles.
In the eleventh Inning, when Olson
was safe at second, the Oaks swarmed
around McGreevy and tried to bluff
Mac into calling Ole out "Nuttln'
dldln'."
Wolverton was put out of the game
for arguing with theumpire.
Some fan said the coffee was boiling
over, Just as McQreevy called the game.
The likes of yesterday's game would
a. treat If w could witness It over
again today. Nix on the rough'.' Soft
pedal.
Tommy Sheehan and Rapps played a
nice game, both shutting off what
looked like hits In any league.
Today's game will decide who takes
the series. Don't forget that if you
want to get standing room you will
have to be o hand early. Some mob
today to , see Gregg, , the wonder, mow
down the Oaks.
.
Two large chocolate drops, Sam
Langford.and Joe Jeanette, will mis
before th8 Armory Athletic club ..In
Boston on September 12. Both of these
bruisers are big fellows, but it loojjfs
like.'"eream'' for Langford, the Boston

stick, of licorice. .
Major Taylori the crack bicycle rldar,
met defeat at the hands of Iver Law
son at , Salt Lake City the other even
ing. Both of these chaps are the best
In the business.
t
Umpire Van Haltren will do the arbi
trating here this week when the
Beavers and Seals fight it out on the
noma grounds. It will bo a real live
series, and the fans all know we have
only taken one series from' the Seals In
two years., Here's hoping we make It
two. -
'
Here-is a Joke, and you willl have to
keep It to yourself, as nobody is sup
posed to say a word about It: The other
day several of the "bunch" . went into
a "mlUlon-dollar-a-meal' Joint, and in
looking over the bill of fare one of
them dldnt see anything that he -liked
well enough, so he ordered "apple pie
all over mud." He meant to say apple
pje a la mode. The waitress looked at
him and said, T beg your pardoji, sir,
DUf " "Nsver 1 mind, fair onej youi

pudding if that's all you have." Of

6. F. Beck, who has been securing the
data for the new tour book of the Port,
land Automobile club, returned to Port
land Thursday from his southern Ore
gon trip. . He has now oovered the prinr
cipal roads of the state, and the only
work remaining for him now is to
gather data on alt the short roads lead

On, his last trip Mr. Beck went south
through the Willamette valley and tra
versed the roads through Medford and
Klamath Falls and on to Bend,

OR PRESS
"Moststai
of.the roads which we traveled, on this
trip were good," said Mr. Beck, "except
a 40 mile stretch between Cottage (rove
and Roseburg. The poor condition of
this piece Of road Is due mostly to the
fact that Eugene grac 'the road money
oa one side and Roseburg on the other.
Lane county is too big and I think the
movement should be 'supported to create
Nes.mith county. '
"Of course- the, dust la bad. but aside
from that the roads in southwestern
Oregon are really In fair condition.
Owing to natural conditions, they are
better in central Oregon than in the
Willamette valley:. I have been rushing
the work of gathering data because It
will be almost Impossible to work after
the start of the rainy season.
' Guide Book Nearly &tedy.
"All, the data and maps compiled are
now In the ' hands of the printer and
the book will be out within 30 days. The
roads o Troutdale, Forest O,rove, Hills
boro and towns in other directions lead
ing out of Portland will be gone over
within the next week or two, and then
all the field operations will have been
completed. ' ,
"The tour book will be similar to the
tour books In use by the "automobile
olubs of southern California and will
be complete with maps and detailed
data on the grades, directions and con
ditions enoountered along the roads. It
will be furnished to members of the
Portland Automobile club in good stand

walked Halllnan. Here the big boy was

as transmisslsslppl golf champion, after

A huge gallery that bad followed the

breathless around the last green while
Sheehan carefully measured the dis

His ball lay hargjy two feet from the

The Des Moines boy was nervous,
however, His ball disappeared from the

Admit American Game Faster
But Class of Polo Not
- So Good. .
London, Aug. 20 A polo team 1I1 ko
to America to play In the spring, but
not, to try to bring back the interna,
tlonal cup. : Polo is being played umkr
American rules here so that it can be
seen where the American rules are hot
ter than the English.
Lord Harrington, who although 06
years old, still plays regulpxly, and Lord
Woodhouso, holr to the Earl of Klmbrr
ly and back for the old Cantabs, are In ,
favor or making a change in England' a
rules. The Earl of Harrington saldr
"I am entirely in favor of the adoption
of the American rules in England. ; Tby
make the game faster and If adopted
our players would have to learn to bit :'
straighter and , harder than : they da ,
now," -.-v.. '-
Lord Woodbouse said: "As a back X
like the game under 'American rules hot
ter than I do under ours. Tha play is ,
a lot faster". 'v .i... a-r. .
W. S. Buckmaster, captain of the old
Cantabs, said: ' "While the game U
faster, the polo is not so good, and I '
don't think there is any likelihood of ;
Kurllngham adopting the 'American
rules. Then the strain oq tha ponies lif
Increased enormously and practically all '
the fine points of the game sacrificed
for speod. American polo is fast But
it is not enjoyable, nor are there nS
many fine points in It as in our Englia.t
gam-"
Reginald Grenfell ofthe old Etonian
has this opinion: "Playing without off
side makes a brighter game. It favors
good bitters and hard gallopers. On the
whole l am not in favor of any change
being made in our rules. What we
would gain is speed by adopting tha
American' rules. Then the strain on
the ponies is increased enormously and
practically all the fine points of the
game sacrificed for speed.' American
polo is fast
"Again, the pace at which the Amerl
can game is played puts a premium on
speed In ponies. Cleverness Is merely
secondary, and It means additional ex
pense to all first class players. .
