Captain Bill Rodgers, lnflelders Kores and Bancroft, Outfklder Buddy Ryan and Catcher- Ou Fisher, forming the advance-guard of the Portland Pacific Coaat league champions, are In Santa Maria and hard at work. They are taking a workout every day and will have all ' the ftorenens out of their arms and lens when the other Beavem arrive next Tuesday. It 1b expected that some of the easterners and the contingent from southern California will be here t-arly next week. According to Captain Rodgers, there is little necessity of Bhortntop, pa vis and Outfilder Lober showing , up the first week, for they nave urn piaing nan an winter wun the- Brawley club of the Imperial Val ley league and should be in good shape.

But. to get back to the Beavers here now. We admonish you to look out for Buddy Kyan tills year. Hud does not carry the flesh of yore and his mates and those who saw him In the two years he was here in and 12. state that he is faster than ever and are st"a loss to account for his release by Cleveland. They attribute it more to personal differences with Manager Birmingham of the N'nps than to Hnd dy's lack of ability, for he was a .300 bitter in the major league. Kailbirds Like Korea. Iiulch Kores is the only one of the quintet who has nof trained here in the past and the railblrds like the. way he goes aTter them In the field and swings on the ball at the plate.

Kores hit .28 4 for the cham pions last year, a splendid mark for an inflehler. but at that he was the weal man wlti the stick on the club, leaving Derrick out of. consideration and taking Speas as the prospective flrt baseman.

BOBBY DAVIS KEPT UP TERRIFIC HITTING BUT i TV LOBER Portland Shortstop Made More Hits and Stole More Bases Than Clubmates, Was Ty f.ober hitting ofer his head in the Coast league last season. This is the basis oi a lot of argument on the part of the Portland fans. Both I.ober arid Bobby Davis played 17 games during the winter with the Brawley club of the Imperial Valley league. l.ober batted .270, which, was about his average before, he joined Portlaptf last June. In fi6 :imes at bat he made i runs and 18 hits, eight of which were two bftgfjers. He made one borne run, stole four bases and made one sacrifice hit. I Ty fielded .976 as a first baseman making four errors, three assists and 165 putouts. j ; Davis kept up his terrific hitting snowing that McCredie's confidence in his ability has not beenj misplaced His average was .312. He was 64 times at bat, scored 12 runs, mad 20 hits, in cluding three doubles, one triple and one homer. He stole six bases and made two sacrifice hits. His fielding average was .963. He had 28 putopts, Former Portland Boy Gets a Blow in Training Camp and Sight Is Destroyed, Guy Lee, the former Portland boxer who quit the game several years ago after a -successful whirl In the four round game In San Francisco and was about to come back, is out of It for good, having lost the sight of an eye in Willie Ritchie's training camp. The news was received in a letter to a friend in Portland yesterday. It follows: "Well, I am the hard luck boy. I was in the best of shape to take up boxing as a profession again, when I lost the sight of my right eye. I had three of the best eye specialists in San Francisco and they all told me that I would never be able to see out of it again. "I got it the first day that I boxed with Willie Ritchie in the training camp. November 29 last, when he was preparing for Murphy. I stayed on and boxed with him for 10 days with the one eye. I could : stay in the game at that, but what is the use? If I should lose the other, I would be in a fine fix, wouldn't I? So I will go back to my trade and stick to it. "I was in Bud Anderson's corner last Fridav "night when he fought Watson. He did hot fight half as good as he did three years ago. Ho can't make 138 pounds and be strong. He was dead on his feet. AU Watson had was a right hand swing and he landed with it every time he started It. "I have a boy that I picked up and taught In San Jose that I am going to start in the game soon at the Olympic club. He is a 158 pounder and a bear." Guy Lee was one of the most prom ising boxers turned out in Portland and had a splendid start in the four round game at San Francisco, getting into the main event class right at the start and fighting Willie Ritchie, to whom lie lost a four round go on points. He was.' one of Tommy Tracey's pupils. Sieberts Has Made 0, A.C. Team Very Formidable One. Oregon Agricultural College, Corval lis, Feb. 27. With two games of the state championship series tucked away safely in their belts, the local basket ball team looks forward to a fairly easy time with the rest of the series, and the fans feel that the Oregon Ag gies will hold the pennant for the year.

Joe Bonds, local light-heavyweight, showed the most class in last fight's four round boxing show given 'by the Eagles, when he stopped Art. Wilson of Seattle in two rounds. Bonds has improved wonder fully under the tutelage of "Denver 50 assists and 3 errors.! 'He made I Ed" Martin, and now looks able to went up several notches, and the game j business weanesuay nignt only served to make the feeling more general. Seiberts has proven to be a strong addition to the strength of the Aggies. He filled in a position which was very weak, and solved one of the biggest problems that Coach Stewart had fac ing him. The fact that Seiberts was a forward enabled the Aggies' mentor to shift Dewey to guard, at which posi tion he is . one of the fastest men in the conference. The opposition has found it especially difficult to break up the new man's attack. Koch, for the University, has given Everett May unusually hard battles in every game thus far. It was .antici pated that the Beaver captain would have an easy time with the U. of O. forward, but Koch has turned out to be a very hard opponent. Dewey, the lightest man on the Cor vallis squad, has played the headiest game of any man on the team. He met with hard luck on his field bas kets in the last two games, the ball repeatedly rolling around the rinf of the basket, only to hesitate and then fall out. He did not have his eye with him in shooting fouls, but he has guarded faultlessly in every contest. Another excursion will be run to Eugene tonight to see the third game of the series. Over 100 students an ticipate taking the trip. Basketball is all the talk, and more excitement has been stirred up during the past four days than has been- seen over basket ball since the championship series with the University of Washington two years ago. One thousand people at tended the game here Wednesday night, and it is estimated that 1200 will be on hand, to see the contest here to morrow night. Pendleton, Or, Feb. 27. L. M.
