Strangely enough, five of the six runs were gath erel fter two were down. The three scorelrts put across by the Equlnes were the result of four biffs and the lone boot of the Bengals did not count igalnst them. In pausing it might be remarked that the Tigers play better ball with Mc- Olnnlty In the grandstand than on the bench. This may be taken as a tip by the Iron Man. Idaho Innocent Starts. Manager Williams led Freddie Fram bach, the blondined youth from the Gem State wilds, to the center of the mound, gave him a few words of advice md sent him on his perilous Journey. Had Freddie known it was to be fraught with string-haltered legs, spav ined arms and nlmed eyes, he might have demurred at the task in front of him. Kid Khmke could not have won with such support. However, Freddie went manfully to the Job after the dls- astrous first Inning and stuck it out until a pinch hitter was called from the bench In an attempt to ptart a r nlly. Chic (not from the French but an abbreviation from the Italian) Brom ley pitched the last two Innings and the Bengals curled their tails beneath their hind legs and took to the run. Phalanges Get Cramps. Terry McKune's digits were the first to get cramps with two down in the opener. Fries got the life. Then Ouigni got the affliction and McMullen was safe. This was followed by a drive good for two bases by Neighbors that skated through short and rolled to the I fence before Milllgan overhauled it. On the throwln the ball got away from Murray nd Cyrus went to third. For tunately ' Ouigni held Tone's grounder and tossed capless Bill out at first. A few kinks crept into Freddie's freckled souper in the fifth and one of his slants creased West's manly breast. West filched second during a momentary lull in the Murray upper works and took third on Million's out. Fries floated a long fly to Mllllgan and West turned northeast, arriving home ah-ad of the throw. i-rty tnroi, wno nai nnoweo nut two hits up to the sixth, suddenly lost his cunning. Mf-Kune opened him up with a single through short. Callahan fanned. Melchlor singled to right. Ouigni fanned. Mllllgan shot a safe one to right and Terrenes scored. Mel going to third and Tavid hanging up at second. And Rare Comae Hick. At this Juncture Managi Nick shuf fled to the plate, picked out the one he wanted andY cracked it through short. Butler had "a sudden criek in the back, couldn't move fast enough to knock down the ball, snd the score was tied, but not without a prodigious sprint by the man from Cedar Rapids. When the throw was made to the plate, Nick ne gotiated second. Coltrln could not get the ball by Texas William Yohe .and the tally was over. With the start to he made all over again. Frambach suddenly lost control. lie fanned Brottem and threw Oirot out at first, hut West walked. Then Mil- With the Idea of forming a house boat colony that will surpass any of the Pacific, coast and equal those in the eastern part of the United States, a syndicate of men ' have formed the Willamette Moorage and Boat club. Thia club lias taken a long lease on the Rons and Hardtack tulands and the 2000 feet of water frontage on the east bank of the Willamette river known as the Allegrani-Calman tract. and will rent space for houseboats at a reasonable rate. The syndicate Is com posed of two local men and one east erner whose named are being withheld for the time being. J. J. McCarthy, who for five years served as secretary-treasurer of the Oregon Yacht club, is representing The Lwillamette Moorage and Boat club and has been working hard to get the con struction of the. colony started. The work, of clearing the banks of' the water front of the orush and shrub bery and driving the piles and build ing the walk for the houses will be started during the early part of next week. Place Z Easily Reached. The transportation facilities are ex cellent. The property Is one block from the Bellwood carline and the Ore gon City cars pass the property. As soon as the houses are moored at the club the Portland Railway, Light and Power Co. will build a Btatlon at the foot of Crampton street. There will be approximately four miles of water frontage and J. J. Mc Carthy has received a large number of applications for space. The Willam ette Moorage and Boat club will have rtstrlctions In the colony, which will make it rank among the best In the world. The colony will' be supplied with electric lights, city telephone service and Bull Run water. The islands are natural parks and in the course of time tennis courts will be erected for the members and Iv may be possible that a small nine hole golf course will bo constructed on Ross Island. Besides the tennis courts and golf course there will be a dancing pavilion and a stretch of water which will form an ideal canoeing course. Meets Loni velt Want. A houseboat colony is what Portland has wanted for a number of years, There has always been water for a good respectable moorage and the Willamette Moorage and Boat club has secured this, because of it the club will not be much more than a mile from the center of Portland. Members own ing motor boats can ride to the city in a short time and return home in the ecning from their work and be contented. The local houseboat season is about six months, from Mav to October in- WOLVERTON IS ON HUNT Boss Senator Concludes Sis Bonch Hot Strong Enough for Coast league Competition. SUNDAY A. M.

The light rains of yes terday morning made the track a bit muddy and it would have been Impossible for the athletes to perform at their best.

SPOKANE POLO PLAYERS WILL COME IN JULY Waverly Club Teams Start Practice Games About June 1. L,os Angeles, May 23. "You may say for me that Sunday morning games positively will continue In the Pacific Coast league," said President A. T. Baum tonight. "Certain managers are "knocking the morning games because this ar rangement requires them to carry an additional pitcher or two. But the public have supported these games in a way that shows that Sunday morn ing ball is popular and there will be no change in our program. "Another thing you may say is, that the Venice franchise will re main right where It is. This talk of moving the Tigers back to ver non or transferring the club to Pas adena is all bosh. The Venice club has a ball park that is a credit to the Pacific Coast league and the support of the ocean city is loyal. The Venice club remains the Venice club for all time to come." President . Baum returns to San Francisco tonight. He praises the manner in which the game la han dled in I..os Angeles and la more than pleased with the splendid work of Umpires Hayes and Guthrie. The Tacoma team Is carrying more infielders than any other club In the Northwestern league. From left to right, the players are Miller, Butler, Bloomer and McMullen. Miller and Bloom er played In the middle western states last year. McMullen was a member of the Tiger team last season and Butler played with the Venice Coast league team for a short spell last year.

SPEED BOAT IS UPSET IN RACE AT OREGON CITY The "Sloth" Comes to Grief; Oregon Wolf IV Wins Free-for-AII. Oregon City, Or.. May 23. The "Sloth," F. C. Atwell's 16 foot motor- boat, capsized and sank during the speed boat races of the annual Rose Show here this afternoon. The acci dent occurred during the free-for-all race and Atwell was thrown into the water and saved himself by swimming to the bank. Tiie boat sank in 90 feet of water.

Commodore Gray, of the Portland Motorboat club, presided over the rac ing events.

Miss Emma DuBruille. who was a prominent member of the club last year, was voted an honorary .member ship. Miss DuBruille has decided to forego tennis this year. Murphy Some Weight Man. Matt McGrath, who Is coaching the University of Pennsylvania weight throwers, declares that Murphy, who only weighs 176 pounds, will surprise many at the annual intercollegiate games, to be held at Cambridge on May 29 and 30, with hla hurling of the 16 pound hammer, and that Dorizas, the Greek strong man, who Is also a stu dent at Pennsylvania, will be a factor In the discus throw for America in the 1916 Olymplo games. San Francisco, May 21. -Prospects are that baseball is to be resumed here tomorrow at the regular hours. It Is all up to the watiicr. Today a re port was current that it had been al most decided to move hctohm to Oak land for tomorrow afternoon's contest. That wu because it was thought Oak land might be dry territory, this hav ing reference to the condition of the ground, and not to the local option' laws. But tonight it was decided that the' regular state of affairs should be pur-' euel and that the game tomorrow aft ernoon should be played at Ewlng field. Manager Artful Devlin of the Oaks Is figuring on switching his lineup in the hope of changing the club's lucU. He has planned to put Rube Gardner on first in place of Jack Nesa, to send Bob Murphy to second and to 1 go In at third himself. In the opinion of fans, the Oaks are good as they stand. Luck has broken against them so far, and the club seems lucking, in. fighting spirit. i'et there is scarcely a man in the entire lineup who wouldn't be eagerly gobbled by other clubs of the league if he were turned loose. Harry Wolverton is said to be hunt- ing through the bruh for recruits, lie lias reached the conclusion that the Senators as they stand are not strong , enough for Coast league competition. and he proposes to boost them up If he can. As a matter of fact. Harry can. take a club scarcely in the class of the others and keep it in the fighting if he gets a fair break in the game's luck. But he neds hitting strength and his pitchers should show a little more if his club is to make any sort of a showing. Duffy Fabre Race June 8. The much-sought-after foot race be tween Jimmy Duffy .nd, Edouard Fa bre, winner and runner-up in the Bos ton A. A. marathon race on April 20 will te run in Kingston, Canada, on June 3, In connection with a field day that Is being planned. The contest will be over a five-mile route, and not at 15 miles, as at first expected. RITCHIE IS TO PLAY GOLF Milwaukee, May 23. Willie Ritchie, champion lightweight, was too near his weight limit tonight to suit him, but he said that he would stage a strenuous workout tomorrow after-' noon and rest Monday and Tuesday, To limber up for his match here Tuesday with Charley White, he in tends to play a little golf. Little money is in sight but Ritchie commands big odds. From preparations made for stag ing the championship battle, the pro moters expect as lsr-e crowd as at tended the Wolgast-Rltchle" fight, when they entertained a crowd of over 8000.
