LEADING BULLETIN On this date 69 years ago changing the beginning of 1st to July 1st. For Fall Eim If HILDEBRAND HAS COIN RECORD When Umpire George Hildebrana walked off the yaughn street base ball field yesterday afternoon after hav ing, with possibly one or two excep' tlons. umpired bril llant baseball d ur ine his six weeks here, ba probably did so for the last time as a Coast league arbitrator. ' It is rumored that Hildebrand will ro to the big league next year and his work during the sea son would Justify President Johnson of the American league or President Lynch Of the National league employing him. That Hildebrand is the cream or tne sterling trio of coast league umpires Is the belief of the fans here, who have watched him work for two sea sons and who, with the exception of his first week In the north last year. when things were breaking badly for him, has gotten away In excellent style. Possessed of a fast pair of legs to carry him over tne inneia aimosi as rapidly as the runner, a keen eye that glimpses every play In the inner or outer works, a diplomatic Judgment in handling players and an exquisite nerve, Hlldy has all the requisites that go to make a good official These are the things that the major league heads want In their umpires and Hildebrand will fill their cool demand to a nicety. Hildebrand runs the game and not the managers or players. They like him, yet they have a wholesome re spect for his disciplinary methods. Practically all of them will tell you on the quiet that Hildebrand is the best of the umpires, even some of those who used to have their little run-ins with him when he was a player. Has Taken Uttle Money. Hildebrand has taken less money from the ball players than any umpire the Coast league has ever had. "What do I want to take their money for," explained Hlldy when this unusual con dition of affairs became known. "The ball players need what they earn, for they are only working seven months dur ing the year and what they make has to tide them over the other five months of the year. Oftentimes they cannot get good positions on account of the short space of time they have at their command and are compelled to loaf through the off season. I did not rel ish fine when I was playing, although I only paid one, to Bull Perrlne, In my life, and I am not going to take the players' money if I can possibly get by without it. -"This year I have only fined four players In the Coast league and, strange enough, every one of them belonged to the Oakland club. Cutshaw lost $10 and" Hoffman and Wares were each re lieved of 15. I don't think any other umpire can point to a record so low as HATTER AUG. 28th. Congress passed a law the fiscal year from Jan. I if I ii"" I'i' : IT""! 1 that for five months of the season Of the players participating in a game the only ones I have sent to the club house that I can recall are Daley, Van Buren, O'Rourke, Cutshaw, Wolverton, Patterson, Thorsen and Pecklnpaughj Of course I've run a lot of them off the coaching line. Including the Irre pressible Happy Hogan." Hildy's la a record that an umpire can point to with" pride and, although several managers have accused Hilde brand of toting a chip on his shoul der, the fact that he has fined so few players would tend to show the con trary to be the fact. An Umps With Courage. That he has cqurage in unlimited quantity was revealed when he called Jack Barry out in the ninth inning a week ago last Sunday on the ground that he had run out of the line and in terfered with Abbott's throw to first base, thereby preventing Portland from scoring two runs and winning the game. Had he desired to be a "homer," he could have switched his decision and called Barry safe. But Hildebrand gave the decision as he saw It, al though he knew that he would be sub jected to a lot of criticism by the in flamed fans. And it is a fact that when he left the field upon the con clusion of the second game, which Portland won, the bleacherite, though armed with cushions, gave him a cheer of encouragement instead of a bom bardment of abuse is OF ABRAHAM MEDAL Dr. Thornton won the Abraham medal yesterday for the third straight time at the Portland Gun club's traps, and now owns the trophy. Thornton is a new and popular member of the club. Wagner won the Inman diamond medal and Beck was the winner of the Sclby trophy. Holahan was high man in yes terday's shoot with the average of 93.

Journal Want Ads bnlng results. , Thornton winner kBsiep Steen's Pitching and Timely Hitting Too Much for J Patsy's Harps. Timely manipulation of singles and doubles off Byram In the fourth and fifth, combined with Lewis' error, gave Portland a 3 to 3 game yesterday after noon over Sacramento, making It a clean sweep for the champions. The feature of the game was the batting of Lind say, who corralled four singles In four times up. Portland started off in the lead when, with one out, Lindsay got his second single. Rapps filed to Mahoney, but Krueger came through with a timely double to center and Lindsay . sprinted home. Krueger overran second and be fore he could return, Lewis, Lerchen and O'Rourko had relayed him out. They Repeat Stunt. The same sort of a cluster gave the Champa their second run, which they stretched into two later In the frame With two down the Clevelander got his third hit and again raced around from the Initial corner when Rapps doubled to left center. Rapps sparred around for a chance to steal third, but Just then Krueger hit a short fly to Lewis. Jimmy was too sure of it and muffed. Rapps by that time was aaross the rubber, for the run thaj decided the game. Rapps'. spectacular catch and relay through Kuhn to Sheehan, cut off one or two scores. Mahoney and Van Buren had singled In the fifth and Thomas' out moved them up a base. Lerchen hit one into right and Rapps turned and sprinted toward the fence. He made a wild leap forthe pill and it stuck in his band. Mahoney couldn't see how Rapps could possibly catel: the ball and he started for home. Rapps saw him coming In and winged to Kuhn, who relayed to Sheehan and the Jig was up. Only Pass Converted. The only man who walked duvlng the game was Danzig and he ambled in the seventh after O'Rourke fanned. Ma honey filed to Chadbourne and Panr.lg's pass was converted into a run when Vun Buren laced a low liner to center field for three basos. Van came In on Thomas" scratch hit that bounded away from Lindsay. Tommy was out try ing to steal. Nebinger started off the ninth with a single to leftbut Steen, who had been pitching remarkably steady ball, caused O'Rourke to hit into a double play. He grounded to Steen, who tossed to Peck, who In turn pivoted quickly to Rapps. Steen tolled- his ninth strikeout by fwhlfflng the last man up. Danzig, who. by the way, fanned seven times last week in front of the Beaver gunners. Two Man Left Boms. The two teams left for the south last night, McCredle leaving his only south paw, Henkle, at home, and taking along Fred Lamllne from the Portland North western league team. Rodgers was left at home but ordered to take the train as soon as his ankle felt strong. Mc Dowell, the recruit second baseman from Nebraska, will report in Califor nia early next month.

After shutting out their opponents In the last four games and making the grand record of 43 Innings without a score against them, the crack Hood River team went to pieces in the fourth canto of yesterday's game at Hood River and allowed the hard hitting Gresham Giants to drive in four runs and turn th game into a farce. The final score was 9 to 1 in favor of the Giants. "C" Townsend, on tne mound for Gresham, was again in fine form and let the home team down to five singles while Hart, who has been twirling great ball for Hood River, was hammered to the four corners of the lot. Gaines, Bauer and Robinson were the fielding stars of the -day, the former making one more of his famous pegs to home plate and cutting off a run. Gaines and Rich Parrott were the star sluggers, while Hall, the Hood River backstop, seemed to be the only home player who could solve the puzzlers of Townsend to any extent. The score: R. H. E. Gresham 9 12 3 Hood River . 1 6 4 Batteries Townsend and Kilt; Hart and Hall. Manager Bartholomew of the Gres ham team is anxious to get a game for next Sunday and Labor day with any out of town team. Bartholomew earlier in the season was of the opinion that with a good team he would be able to get all the'games he wanted durng the season, but the reverse seems to bo the case ahd the Willamette valley teams are said to be afraid to meet the Gres ham team. Any good team desiring a game may get it by telpphoning Bar tholomew at the Honeyman Hardware company. and Warner Pfaender. - The events will be the 60, 100, 220. 440 and 880 yards swims, fancy diving, plunge for distance, bpek and breast stroke swims and relay racing.
