However, Bob cherishes a notion that the Beavers are to win the opening game of the season today, and gives a few reasons. Among Stevens' assertions why Fort- land will triumph over San Francslco today are the following: . .. 1. San Francis'co has won the open ing game for 12 consecutive seasons. This is the thirteenth. - , . 2. s All the dopesters pick the Seals to win again,- and this is April Fools' day. 3. The combination, of .thirteen. to, tbe year of the- calendar and the opening of the season will be too trqng for the Seals. President Stevens has a numebr of other- rcascuis, but he asserts he has not time to glv them Xa detail, but each Is summed up in the fact that the Bea vers are due to win. - : Of course, if Stevens' dope goe? wrong and the Seals chaso the 'lS"iinx he with blame the writer of this yarn for being too previous in publishing it, as the delay of a day would have made a prediction unnecessary -and Bob could then become an "I told you so," . Things are booming along nicely Jn the Baseball Boosters' club, and mem bers are being enrolled rapidly.

A ball down the third base line, which came to a rest. two feel foul, was called fair to the amazement of fans and play ers alike.. As this happened with three men on bases and the ball.Tiad been rolled to each of the infielders for prac tlce before being returned to the pitcher, the results- are obvious. The second squad of Colts, 10 In number, arrived here from Santa Rosa yesterday morning. They' gave the Santa Rosa team, with Doo Moskimon in the box, a fine trimming. Tha play ers left behind were Infielders Barker andNorton, Outfielder Dougherty and Pitcher pray. They had little chance of maklnir eood. Gulsnl and Varlan hit the bail hara in the- Santa Rosa games.
