The Indians were ao well pleased with
the traps and with Eugene that they
have practically decided to hold their
1913 shoot there next June. The chance

won by Lee Berkley and has already
been challenged for by "Bill" flillia and
others. The challenge wa to have been
shot off this afternoon at Kenton, but
was postponed owing to the high water
covering the traps. The returning mem

The Portland Gun club haa put its
grounds at Kenton in splendid shape,
and with two McCrae Western auto
matic double or single traps can take
care of a large field of sportsmen. The
club Is planning to erect a clubhouse on
the Kenton grounds, which will be 16

the Portland Rowing club Is very busy
preparing for the season. The senior
four, Allen bow, Hansen 2, Helwlg 8,

but among the juniors rivalry Is very
keen. All three crews are so nearly
equal that It Is probable that they will
all be kept Intact and entered In meet
held in Portland.
The Junior crew are: Dent bow,
Iniffey 2, Hosford 3, and Tuck stroke,
McDonald bow, Iewellen 2, Myers 3,

Bj W. S. Farnsworth.
New Tork. June 17. It sure Is a mer
ry fight for the gonfalon In the Na
tlonal league this year, with th Giants,
Cubs, Phillies and Pirates In the load.
While It Is a foregone conclusion that
one of these teams will win- out, -the
man who can pick the leader among tha
quartette deserve a leather medal.
The Giant were picked as sure win
ners all over the country laat winter,
but the Cubs' new material has shown
up most promisingly and ao have Fred
Clarke' men. The great spurt of the
Quakers at first looked like just a flash
in the pan, but Charley Dooin has In
jected a lot of pepper Into their veins
and, if the pitching staff can stand the
burden Philadelphia fans may not hav
to leave their own town to witness th
world' championship ,erle next fall.
All Depend on Mug gay.
As I . only natural, local fans are
predicting that the pennant will surely
cometo this city. But I am- going to
tell you something about th Giant
without MoGraw at tha helm, they are
like that proverbial ship that is rudder
less. They play inside baseball from
start to finish, take advantage of every
bit of percentage and are a spry aa a
Futurity candidate whan ha I on th
bench or coaching; line to guld them.
But when h Is absent, they ar not
the same team by a long shot.
And this was clearly demonstrated In
the series of a fortnight, ago between
th Giant and Cuba In Chicago. While
the New Yorker broke even with the
Windy City aggregation, they should
have won all four of th games. Chi
cago scribes will probably say differ
ently, but It 1 tha oold fact Just the
same."

defense and offense.
He has a hard-hitting outfit and an
infield and outfield" that rank high on
the defense, but with two or three ex
ceptions the players are purely mechan
ical; their brains do not work without
McGraw to guide them. ' .
There Is no getting away from the
fact that McGraw Is the greatest man
ager that ever handled a ball team. He
know the game from A to Z and back
again. , Ho Is alwaya taking advantage
of an opponent'a Weakness and it doesn't
take him long to find that spot either.

Chance has a grand staff of substi

its understudies. Hofman, the crack all

reputation and has filled in wonderfully
at first while Chance himself was
forced to sit on the bench because of
an Injury.
The Cubs are, without doubt the

very brainy player. He has been break
ing up sacrifice plays by the opposi

quick-thinking first baseman to . rush
in for a. martyr bunt and wheel in time
to get his man at the aeyston.
It certainly looks as though-the usual

here. The Chicago leader Is fast slow
