Henderson is a valuable man to have on a ball club, outside of his own abil ity on the mound, for he Is continually advising the young fellows In all de partments of the game. He goes at it In & quiet way, and only those who have been wllh him on a club are , aware of his interest In the boys just breaking in. It Is a pretty safe bet that Manager ' Howard will use the big fellow in a lot of games against the Portland team, for ft there is anybody that he 1 would like to humble on the home lot it is Manager McCredle of the Beavers. , Henderson doesn't think McCredle treated him right, but those on the .Inside know t&at Mao was very patient with Henderson in all his lapses from the straight and narrow path, and let , Mm go because he was of little or no use to the Beavers with his drinking propensities. The writer knows, that Jn 1912 Benny did not touch a drop of the stuff that cheers at the Santa Maria .training camp, and that he was in splendid shape for the season. The kicking of his first five straight games away behind him caused him to become disheartened and to seek solace -In the brew, i McCredle thereupon sus pended him, and that fall turned him over to Toledo, from whom he secured an "unconditional release a few weeks ago.

Angel college' Saturday night ended In a squabble with the score 16 to 16. The contest stopped about a minute and a half before the end, the Christian Brothers protesting because of the alleged partiality of Jack Melchlor, the umpire. Melchior was chosen as umpire and up until the last three minutes of play did not call a foul on either team. It is said. Then he called two of them, which allowed the Mt. Angel team to tie the score. A third foul was called, but Sullivan failed to throw the basket and Melchior wanted another foul called because the crowd was hooting his decisions. The C. B. B.
