MACKMEN LOOK BEST ME DIE'S PLAYERS SMH HAGNETTS TOSSERS VflTH B1NGS Walter Doane Leads in Hitting ; With ' Beautiful Homeruri - Training at "Stockton . Over,' Stockton. Cal., March 29. The Beav era fattened up their batting averages today when Remington, their old time team mate, faced them. A horn and a double, to say nothing of anumber of perfectly good single clouts, were net ted off his delivery. . , Doane is the man who got the four Backet and it was a dandy, aa clean a one as was ever smashed out on the Oak1 Park diamond. It went Into the right l4nd corner of 'the field and the fence "was its limit Doano was around the sacks before the sphere got back Into the diamond. At that Krause gets charged with de- feat, a the score was one -to iiotmng against him when he retired and Kackett put the tall, young 8an Joaquin boy on the hilltop. Eight hits were made off nimlngton, six of them being In the ninth Inning. It was a regular slugfest. Tbe score was 9 to I. ' higgjnbetham and James did. the twirling for the Beavers, only three hits being made off the latter. Hig had bout everything there was and the Quincyltes could do nothing with hi.a de livery. . :' . I It is rather expected that McCredle Hill use Hlgginbotham in the opening game with the. Seals at San Francisco next Tuesday. However, he says that he will not make his selection until Mon day. .'N,a,k . . Carrlgan is the man who got the mark fop Qulnuy. His three-bagger put him n striking distance and he got across on a fielders choice and an error. Hackett's team, soon to leave for Qulncy, to Join the Three I league, has failed to take a game from Portland so far, but Hackett has hopes that he will be able to put one over tomorrow. The attendance has been very meager, as the fans say, that these practice bouts lack the element of real contest, but the two teams have put up some very good ball, yesterday's game being worth anybody's time and money. A big attendance is looked for tomor row, as it will be the last time the two teams will be seen here and Sunday is always the; big day with the local fans anyhow.

TO CAPTURE PEI IN PACIFIC CIRCUIT McCredie Seems to Have Made Better Preparations 'for Long Race Than Other Clubs. r "Sanford" The Best - ,?'..'.' ., . HAT In America E. Sichel Co. Gentleman Furnishers ( 286 Washington St. " Ber4thanJ 5tH By B. A. Cronin. "'Tiie Pacific coast is upon ,the eve of the greatest baseball season In Its his tory, with any one of five teams a pos sible pennant' winner. The sixth team, which, at this early stage of the train ing camp appears to have little chance at the rag, Is San Francisco, but addi tions from the Chicago white Box may make a real contender out of the How ard lineup. In a telegram to The Journal today Manager Iroward assures the Coast league fans that he lis prepared to strengthen his team, and In that event It may be anybody's race. After serious reflection, however, it appears that some strengthening will be needed earlier than men can be let go by the white Sox, if the Seals intend to be up in the running. Portland had a good lesson in that respect last year, when the Beavers were unable to make up ground that they had lost earlier in the season. If Portland doesn't finish one, two three this year there will be disappoint ment In many quarters. On the training camp dope it looks as if McCredle has assembled the greatest.bunch of pitchers ever gotten together on the Pacific coast. He has spent money lavishly toward ac complishing this purpose. The men are seasoned and the records will show that good pitchers are half the team. In 1910 McCredle had a great pitching staff, perhaps the greatest the coast has known, and he won a pennant, al though his other players were not won ders in any department In 1911 he had another great pitching staff and a bet ter ball club behind them than in 1910. Again he gathered the bunting. Last year he had a great hitting staff, but until late In the season had but two pitchers and the result of that disas trous race Is well known. Although the writer did not see the southern clubs In action, he witnessed games by the northern California towns and in general makeup none of them has it on the Beavers. ( Xook To Be Class. In fact, McCredle's mn look to the writer to be the class of the field. There "is only one weak position, short stop, and that in fielding only. If Kores corrects his fielding faults the Beavers will he well guarded In all departments. The fans know what Rodgers and Lindsay can do and they have been fully appraised of the ability of Fred Der rick, the new first baseman. If Der rick Isn't the class of the new, first sackers In the league, the writer will miss his guess greatly. In the American association he was the star of the initial Backers and was favorably compared with Ed Konetchy, Jake Daubert and -other young stars. If his hitting Is up to standard he prom Jses to be one of the sensations of the league. Neither Ness, a youngster, nor QUI, a veteran, are able to cover ground with the Beaver two-year-old From this end It looks as if the race will be between' Portland; Oakland, and. vernon, wiin Hacramemo ana jxs Ange les, fighting it out for fourth' place. San Francisco, the -best baseball town In the minor leagues, ' looks to be a money loser for J. Cal Ewlng and his associates unless something is done to strengthen and In that event its finish is problematical. On the whole, the race appears to be one of the best in th,e history of the circuit, and when the bells at nan Fran cisco, Los Angeles and1 Sacramento ring Tuesday, record breaking crowds will be In attendance. The fans are anxious to see the hew men who' have been as sembled, and will flock to the parka If the weather provesfair. Portland has notwon an opening game since 1906, when win French beat Fres no. McCredle, always a believer in a hunch, is positive tat April Fool's day will give him a winner. Certainly his pitchers are in great shave for the an nouncing'' gong and .whether be eon eludes to send Krapp. Hlgginbotham Carson or Hagerman to the firing line, the game should be well taken cart of, for all f them are in condition to go the full nine Innings. They, have taken that reason there has been no sore arm In the club. ' , Some of Nick; Williams' Hopes for 1913. , Reading from left to right, they are - Top row lnflelder Gulgni, Pitcher Bert Fitchner, Bonthpaw Koch, Flrstbaseman Norton, Manager Williams, Out- fielder Walters. Second tier Catcher Miffray, Secondbaseman Mohler, Outfielder Fortier. Lower row Pitcher Hynes and second view of Quigni, after high one,, .The Armory Athletic elub, affer being out of the. boxing game will re : enter the fold Saturday night, with an all-atar program, consisting of eight botfts. .The management has arranged for the cream of the talent to appear -and It is expected that the largest crowd tiiat ever attended a boxing program will be present. - One of the bouts on the card Is Larry Madden versus Earl Miebus. Madden has been training faithfully for some time and expects to win his old title again. Allen, who was - defeated ; by Ralph G rum an, will be given a chance to come back and McNeill will prob ably go against Tuerck. Calhoun to Box. An effort is being made to match Dick Hewitt, ex-champlon Jn the paperweight, division with Cyclone Calhoun. Leon ard Powers, Walter Knowlton and Hef-' f ernen will also be seen In action. The Beaverton Amateur Athletic club recently organised1, will probably send one or two boys down to compete for.' honors,' while the . Armory club will likely have one or two representatives' on the card. The first of these bouta; will be held Tuesday night at the Arleta Athletio club. Manager Bush has arranged for seven bouts. O'Brien will meet Mock Drlscoli and Hlberg will fight BoatrlghU Warner and Olllscho, who put up such a great battle last February, ' have been re matched and an excellent go Is prom ised. Larin and Underwood. will meet in the 125 pound class and Al Calhoun will meet Heffernen. CyclonS Calhoun will be pitted against some 108 pounder. April 7, the Brooklyn club will hold its monthly smoker. Entries Blanks Out. ' Entries blanks for the city, champion ships will be mailed out-this week and It la expected that more entries than In any. 'previous city championships bouta. will be received. " ' " " ' '" A battle between Walter Williams and Allen McNeill -for the ,v 15 .pound city championship will be one of the features of the championship bouta. Wll liams will rest up new until the time of the bouts so that he will be in the pink of condition. .: The card at the Armory next Satur day night will be without a doubt the best one presented this season. PORTLAND COLTS ARE T( IN SENSATIONAL GAME Mays Twirls Great Ball Against Coasters After Relieving Cooney; Mohler, Coltrin Star . (SpcUl to Tbe Joaraaf.) ' Sacramento, . Cal., . March 29. The Portland Colts lost today to the Sena tors by a score of 7 to 2 In a game 'full of sensational plays, and both teams playing in mldseason form. The pro ceeds, $500, will be .sent to the Ohio flood victims. ; Coorfey started on the mound for the Colts, but hls offerings proved to bo easy picking, and before Mays relieved in the third, five runs had been sent across the plate. Had he started there might have been a different story. He kept the Senators swinging all the time, allowing but two safe blngles. Munsell kept his Safeties scattered, and the best the Colts could do was to send across two runs in the first and fifth. Cullen slammed a two-bagger to left, and Bliss' drive for two sacks Into the same garden scored Cullen In the sixth. It looked like a rally, but the next three were easy outs, and the Colts best chance was nipped in the bud. . Cuts Off Many Rita. Kid Mohler played a great game at second, cutting off more than one sure hit. He showed that he still has plenty of the old-time class. Coltrin played a sensational game at short. Me was fast, and nad B,s arm working In fine shape. Williams' club Is a much stronger ag gregation than that which appeared here last season. The infield combina tion is strong, and working well. The team batting Is very strong, but the players have not seen many curves, and fhat may account for the absence of timely slugging.. The Portland boys will remain here until Wednesday, and will then leave for the north. Williams Is pleased with his team, and says that the Infield and outfield Is working in great shape, and if his pitchers keep. on coming the way they have been, it is one, two, three for the Oplts this year. . - Seaworthy Shifts OTaourka, . Bill Kenworthy at second base, and Roy Moran In enterfleld were the Sac ramento heroes. Kenworthy covered all kinds of ground around the second sack, and out off at least three line drives between first and second, which looked like sure safeties. Moran proved him self the best ground-covering outfielder who has worn a Sacramento uniform In recent years by gathering In two .long drives that looked tagged for two or squad far more than was at first seen. Kenworthy Is a fast, and euro ground coverer around second, and Patsy O'Rourke has fallen back Into his third base habits In good shape, handling five chances without a bobble today. Hake Their Kits Count. The Wolves made every one of their seven hits count for a run, while Mun sell was effective with men and bases, and allowed the Portland Colts only two runs off their six hits, and one of these runs would not have materialized except for Tommy Tennant'a error on Fortler's grounder In the first frame.
