A good many ' of the duck hunters at the present time are not satisfied with the present .Fed was one of the minor reasons why so many of the champions hit in the .300 class. An Epidemic la 1910. Discussion over this led to the "bean ball" epidemic in the Coast league in 1910, when Portland and Oakland were fighting it out for the championship practically all season. The Oaks had the reputation of using the skull ball all the time when a batter crowded the plate. Jack Lively and Moser laid out many a player. Jess Orendorff of Los Angeles got cracked in the con ning tower one fine afternoon, and was never the same ball player after wards. Their reputation preceded them to Portland , and it caused Manager ommend that various changes be made, McCredie no litle concern The Willamette Valley shooters were not satisfied with the shooting that they, received last season. , Pheasant Hunting Question. The question of hunting Chinese pheasants will also be voted on. . The question of abolishing salmon egg fishing will also be discussed. This kind of fishing has been stopped in the upper McKenzie river. President VanDuzer, of the Multno mah Anglers' club. Is very anxious to have as many sportsmen who can at tend at the beefsteak dinner. Before the first game started Man ager Mac called big Vean Gregg, one of the wickedest fast ball pitchers that ever worked out here, aside and told him that at the first indication of bean ball tactics on the part of the Oak pitchers, he was to cut loose at the head of every man that faced him. Tom Seaton. another speed ball pitch er, was given the same instruction, and little Gene Krapp, who tossed 'a wicked ball then, was also tipped off. The plan was to give the Oaks some of the same medicine. The information got to the visiting club, and it had ' Ml ? -S - ,11 1 ?, f - ff VM4 H - , I ' ) '" Besides some interesting moving the effect of stopping all the bean pictures, which1 will be shown by Wil-jball work.

They grew in dignant and asked the chief to end it. The chief was equal to the occasion. When Lively cameup to the plate the big Indian put everything he had on his fast ball, and 'it struck Lively in the groin. They carried Alabama Jack off the field, and ,from that day he has never been mote than a mediocre pitcher. Harry Wolvertonj who brought Live ly out from the Southern league, to which he was sent by Hughey Jen nings, gave him a thorough trial last year with the Sacramento club. Live ly wasn't there, and his contract was not renewed this year. Zs Good Example. LIvely's case is a pretty good exam ple of the retribution that follows In the case of a pitcher who tries to maim men of his own calling who are also trying to earn thelr'llvelthood by their athletip skill v- Oftentimes the hitting or a batter is purely accidental. Take the case of Jimmy Lewis, who was struck on th temple by a rast d&u zrom tne paw oi Elmer Koestner, a couple of years ago Blood oosed from Jimmy's nose ana ears, and it took quite a while to stop the flow of blood after he was tanaea at the hospital. He was in a comatose state for a couple Of Weeks, and Koest ner acted like an insane man until he knew that Jimmy was out of danger. Lewis was one man that never became ball ehv as a result of the injury, ana It is a good bet that he will lead the Northwestern league In batting for the first two or three months thia com. ing season. He was one of the great est spring hitters that we have had on the coast in recent years. HI West - savs oftentimes a batter comes ud to the plate in a dreamy mood and will stand with the bat on his shoulder and make no effort to get out of tne way of a pitched bail He says he struck a Southern leaguer once, and that hereafter he will give the batter sufficient warning when he intends to pitch. Here's an Amnslng One. . Perhaps the most ludicrous case of av batter- being hit by a pitched ball occurred in Portland several years ago when the bibulous Ben Henderson was twirling good ball for the champions in 1911. Jerry Sheehan, who rattles the scales at about 250 pounds, was at bat and the field was in poor con dition. It had rained hard and tha ground tender dished out some earth near the plate to draw the storm wa ter away from the rubber. Jerry was standing nonchalantly at the obloid with his eyes glued on the right field bleachers. Henderson tried to sneak over a strike and the ball caught Jerry sauarely on his big chin. The force whirled him around and he fell face downward in the puddle of water and mud bubbles came to the surface like syphon water. Succor was at hand In an instant, and Jerry was resusci tated, but ha never knew what hit him Walter McCredie was another victim of the "bean ball." It happened when Mao . was playing regularly in right field for his club. Bill Toser. the, southpaw of the Los Angeles club, was the shooter. Mac tried to duck one of his fast balls in Los Angeles in 1908 on day and got clicked on the temple. He went down like a log, got up. wab bled to first base without definitely knowing what he was doing, keeled over again, and had to be supported to the club house, where he shortly rounded" to. It was a terrific crack, but it did not make him ball shy, and in few days he was reeling off the Dingles as of yore. That same yar the Sacramento club lost a promising young outfielder in an Indian named House, who was rapped in the skull. He bade fair to make the Red race as famous in the outfield as in the pitcher's box, but after hovering between life and death for two weeks, came out of his state of coma in a very highly developed state of bat shyness. He has never been heard of since in fast baseball.

The Columbia team surpassed in combination. Its half line was also superior to that :Of Oregon. There was nothing to choose between the two sets of fullbacks and both teams were well represented at goal. The Oregon men, however, are coming fast. Of the 18 men who made the trip nine are freshmen, and before they are fourth year men they should be heard from In the soccer world. This is their first season at the game and yesterday was their sec ond game. The Columbia team played uniform ly well.
