Seaton Is as mU3h the appls of McCredle's eye as any of bis other twirlers. and Mac has freely predicted that his sensational work will carry him up to the big show next season. In faet It Is believed that Cleveland will purchase the speedy pitcher, as McCredle has Intimated sev eral times that Charlie Somers has made searching Inquiries about Tom and Is following his work closely. All of Beaton's professional baseball experience has been, gained with the Portland club, except for a few months he was with the Oakland club of the California outlaw league four years ago. Tommy first saw the light of day in Blair, Neb was quite , August 80, 1887. When hs vounir his fflmilv mnvH tn Col0rado and he entered nchool at Sil verton, where he learned to pitch on the high school team. He entered the University of Colorado In 1906 and made a half back, position on the football team, but in his fourth game sustained a broken left shoulder and quit the gridiron for good. in lflOfi he moved out to California, Richmond being his stooping place. He played semi-professional ball there In 1906-7, twirling for several ot the towns around that part of California when an exceptionally hard game was carded. In 1908 he pitched a number of gams for Oakland in the State league, and was seen and admired by Bill Burns of the Philadelphia big leaguers. Burns tipped Tom off to Walter McCredia and the Beaver boss promptly signed him up. Seaton reported to the training camp at San Luis Obispo in the spring of 1909, and the vets had a great spring at his expense. He had some sharp breaking curves and a lot of steam, but lacked experience, and Manager' Mac sent him to the Portland club of the Northwestern lesgue. He 'was a sensa tion among the class B tossers and Mc Credle took him back to the Coast in August Down In California he finished up at a great clip. In the Northwestern league he won 17 games and - lost 14 with a "Joke" club, his percentage be ing .648. He was In the Coast league long enough to win four and lose thre games for a percentage of. .571. In the Northwestern league he was third In the list of fielding pitchers with an average of .971 In 87 games, whlU in the Coast league he led them all. by handling 27 chances perfectly. He batted .136 for the Northwestern team and .074 for the Coast Last year Seaton broke even on 34 games.

Finally they located on Burlington street near Hayes, where thav three courts, one single and one double. The city donated the use of the steam roller, whloh was used to good advan tage In leveling the ground.
