AROUSED AND FATE OF NORTHWESTERN DEPENDS ON FAVORABLE DAVIS VERDICT AND NEPHEW WALTER MUST BE ON VERGe'oF HIGH DIVE FROM THE OLD SEAL ROCKS AFTER YESTERDAY BEAVERS GO DOWN TO DEFEAT AGAIN WITH SEALS AS Wl NNER Series Now Stands Five Vic- i ' - r r r r Tones xo une ueieai Tor ban Francisco. M'CREDIE'S MEN TAKE SPLENDID WALLOPING Score at End of Game Stood 6 to 1 Some Excuse for the Losers, Ban Francisco, Cal., Sept. 13. Playing with the aggressiveness and spirit char acteristic of their work since the be. .ginning of the series, the Seals swept the league leading Beavers to defeat again this afternoon by a score of ( to 1. The perles stands now at five vie tories to one defeat for San Francisco with two games on the schedule for to morrow. One splendid little walloping was this that the Beavers took today. Boss Me Credie. of rourse, lias a sort of an alibi for all that has occurred. Ty Lober Is out of the game. So is Bill Speas. So Is BUI Lindsay. And these three have done much In putting the Portlanders up at the top of the heap, and In keep In; them there. But even with his substitutes, the big boss of the Beavers lias a ball club worth considering. With his whole club intact It Is doubtful If he would have had any better success against the Seals, for Just at present Del Howard'? boys are in one of their peculiar spurts when they are practically unbeatable. They won today by opportune hitting and by the right kind of hase running, with Jimmy Johnston, king of the base thieves, leading In the general charge around the sacks. Jimmy did some hitting too, and so did Willie Hogan, who gathered three clouts out of four times up and consequently did his share toward , sending Jim John around the circuit. History Bepeati Itself, R'ST X'n Hagerman was sent to the Peal taming Job by McCredie for the start off. History repeats Itself. Big Zip started on Tuesday morning and was driven off the slab, with Lefty Stanley taking his place. Hagerman was driven off again to day, and Hgaln was Stanley called on for relief work. Stanley's work was an Improvement over his mastodonlc prede cessors, but he did not stop the run getting. The Seals opened up on Mr. Hager man in the second Inning, when Wllllo Mogun sent a difficult roller down t Bill Rodgers and Bill could not get his hands on It properly. Jeremiah Downs sacrificed, putting Hogan on second. sCorhan drew a walk, and then came Cartwrlght with one of those time ly hits that were a sort of habit with Mm early In the season. He smashed the ball against the right field fence and Hogan scored the first run. Carty went to second when an attempted dou ble steal resulted in Corhan's being tossed out at third. Clark "walked but Fanning struck out. Portland promptly there ended mat ters. McCormick and Gus Fisher singled but Skeeter Fanning took considerable time to study over the situation ana hts pitching at this point was alto gether too' much for the gents from the north. Hagerman struck out. Chad bourne was out on an Infield fly. But Derrick almost delivered In the plncr., hitting a single Into center field, whoro It bounced Into Jimmy Johnston s hands. McCormick attempted to scorti from second base, but was out at the plate on a perfect throw rrom Johnston Hagerman walked Mundorff and Mc Ardle In the third, yjonnston tried to bunt, but the ball took a bound out of McCorblck's reach and went for a hit. The bases were full. Whereupon came Willie Hogan with a well placed sap acrqss second base, scoring Mundy and Honus. This was Hagerman's finish. He fad ed swiftly from the landscape and the extremely left handed Mr. Stanley was called Into service. He got out of the inmng without fu--thor damage. Portland's lone run came in the fifth, and again Mike McCormick started the trouble, hitting safely to left field. Fisher forced Mike at sec ond, Corhan making a swift but inef fectual try for a double on Gustavus. McArdle was guilty of a genuine bone head trick, for without waiting for any move on the part of the runner .ia tftrned and whipped the ball to the plaij just one of those usual tosses cus toniary with the inflelders. He sup posed Nig Clarke would be on the Job, but Nig had boon over backing up first J ana Mas not half way back when the ball left McArdle'r hand and wafted its way into vacancy. McArdle wns In pursuit of It by the time It was really started, but Fisher got to second Just the same. Scors Mads 3 to 1. Stanley singled to left. Fisher go ing to third. Chadbourne shot a swift grounder to Cartwrlght, who made a vigorous but ineffectual try for It, and Fisher scored. This put the count at 3 to 1, which was tut cnoftgh to suit the Seal Beginning the home half of the fifth, Jimmy Johnston doueled. Then he stole third and made etie rest of the distance on Hogan'a out, Korea to Der. rick. . Stanley's chief troubles were In thi seventh, when Mundorff started off with a clean rap to center. McArdle bunted and' MUndy scored when' Johnston put another blngle to right Jimmy lost little time in making a mad dash for Becond and he found tho Beaver guard ians of th particular neck of the woods VANCOUVER RUNS AWAY FROM THE COLTS RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING Had Nick Only Known, Bu Why Argue Question? It's All Over Now, FIVE CLEAN RUNS ARE MADE IN THE FIRST Ninth Inning Score Is 7 to 4 Last Gaines of the Sea son Today, Had -Manager Nick Williams known that Frank Fast ley possessed more de ceivcra in his good right fist than Alo-ysius Carson, he would have started the Pitlsburger yesterday. But NIch olas didn't know that. He concluded thaL Carnon was about ripe ufter long rest, but A I was either not ripe enough or too ripe. Take your choice. Whatever way you look at it, there remains the cold hard figures five clean runs in the first inning on five hits, a wild pitch, a walk and a sac rlfice fly. They couldn't be overcome and the ninth passed into history with a fccore of 7 to i. Cadreau was lucky 10 get away as wen as lie did for lie was hit hard at times, and was wild toward the end of the game. It was the first time this week that Vancouver edged into tin winning column and the one of the few times this season that Cadreau lias been able to go fhe route with the Gallopers. Vancouver started right off the reel to win the game. Blinker dropped a two base hit in center field and Ben nett walked. Kipper beat out a slow roller to Bancroft, filling the bases. MrMurdo mauled ono to center and the B-B kids crossed the plate. Carson uncorked a wild pitch and the runners advanced a base. Frisk beat out a bunt, again rilling the bases, whereupon Scharney lifted a long fly to Mahoney and Ki'iper beat the throw home. Heister routed one Into left and when the ball hopped over Mahoney's conk, the bases were cleaned. Konnlck jtnd Cadreau were Infield outs and the inning ended. Portland made quite a noise in its half. With one out, Mohler singled to right and Guignl was safe on Ben nett's foozle. Melchlor two-bagged to center and Mohler scored. Hcilmann acej one past first and Guignl scored. Mahoney followed with a long arch to Brlnker. and that worthy doubled Melrhlor out at the plate. Scharnwcber's double with one out in the third and Konnick's single to cen- er. gave the Vans another In the third. The Mcks halved the score in the fifth, when Murray ambled; Eastley, who succeeded Carson In the fourth, sacrificed and Dan went to third on Bancroft's out, whence he scored on a wild pitch. Both teams finished their run-getting n the sixtn. with one out brlnker howed us how outfielders can be fooled, by hitting a three baHer between Ma honey and Melchlor. Bennett fouled to Coltrin and Klppert singled to center. With two out Heilmann singled past first and scored on Mahoney's screecher to the center field wall. Bobby Coltrin beat out a hit to Scharnwcber and things looked promising when Patrick Mays was called to pinch for Murray. Pat raised a fly to Brlnker. Eustley and Mohler sandwiched walks between outs in the ninth, but Guignl couldn't de liver the needed blow. This afternoon the Northwestern league will close the season with a double header starting at 1 o'clock in order to give the two clubs a chance to catch early trains for the north.

The Class AA clubs are restricted to one draft from each Class A league team and other classes are unrestricted. It is expected that the raid of the major leagues of the Northwestern league players this season will be un usually heavy.

Port land has several players, for whom drafts will be put In. and Judce Mc Credie fears that ftodgers will lie the man whom he will lose. The baseball drafting season opens tomorrow and continues until all the leagues have had a chance to draft players from leagues of lower classi fication. The major leagues got flrKt pick at all the players in the country for five days. Most of the drafting hy the major league clubs la done in one day. Two days after the major league drafting season closos, the A A leagues start their season, and so on until thy A, B and C leagues have had their draft ing season.

I don't know whether we will have a team next year in the Northwest league HILL ACADEMY MAY QUIT 1NTERSCH0LASTIG LEAGUE THIS SEASON Action May Be Taken Unless Enough Good Material Is on Hand, SPEAKER IS NEAR1NG TY COBB JACKSON Unless there is enough good material on hand from which to select a strong team, the Hill Military Academy may drop out of the Interscholastlc League this season. This was summarized from a short talk with Joseph Hill, principal of the institution. The Academy had an exceedingly good lot of material last season, but injuries and accidents prevented the team from making a better showing than It did. No one has been selected as coach In place of Carl Wolff, who resigned to accept a position on the coaching staff of the Oregon Agricultural College. An instructor formerly connected with the University of Indiana has been add ed to the Hill faculty and it Is said that he may be coach of the eleven. Six other applications have been received, but none of them will be considered un til Joseph Hill and his new faculty member goes over the matter. If the Academy eleven drops from the league the season will not open until October 10, Portland Academy and Co lumbia being the opposing teams. To date only two members of the Hill, team of last season have returned and the prospects for a team do not look very promising.

Official figures given out by the stat istician of the league before today's games gave: Cobb, 3"9; Ja;kson, .378: Speaker, .368. iWefffte-fal figures tabulated tonight, including this afternoon's game, gave: Cobb, .370; Jackson. .374; Speaker. .370. Motor Koat Club to Crulne The Portland Motor Boat Club will hold a cruise to Vancouver, Wash., to day, leaving the club float at 9::t0 o'clock. The club members will be guests of Colonel Yountf commander of the Vancouver Barracks. The fate of the Northwestern league In Portland hinges on the protest against the playing of Bobby Liavis in the eighth Inning of Friday's game, In which he stunted a rally that eventually returned Portland a victor In the luta Inning. If the protest of Manager Brown of Vancouver is upheld by the powers that be and the game is thrown out 'of the records it will sound the death knell of Northwestern league baseball here, according to a statement Is3ued yesterday afternoon by Judge V,'. W. McCredie, owner of the franchises in both the Northwestern and Pacific Coast leagues. Judge McCredie's fight ing spirit has been aroused and unless Manager Brown recedes from his pro test it will prove costly to the Class B league. Bow Is Over Davis. Davis is a young infielder who was purchased In June from the Walla Walla club of the Western Tri-State league and that club asked that he be permitted to play in the Class B league until the end of the season. Ho Joined Portland Friday and was sent to bat in a pinch in the eighth Inning. Brown immediately entered a protest and Davis delivered a two base hit that scored a runner and put new fight into the Colts, who tied the score In the ninth and won out In the 12th. Brown based his protest on the rule which prohibits the t;ale gr release Of a player by a minor league club to a ma jor or minor league club within 20 days of the commencement of or during the drafting period or within 20 days of the close of the season of the club dis posing of the player. MeCi;8die Bought Player. "Portland purchased Bobby Davis from Walla Walla last June for $500. "He la the property of this club, and eligible to play with the Colts. If Brown's protest Is sustained I will wash my hands of the Northwestern league. "I am ahout to confess for the first time that the Taclfic Coast league direc tors at their summer meeting, voted to withdraw the Portland territory from the Northwestern.
