Tho Colts are leaving uh with a blaze
of errors In thHr wake. The toll yes
terday was nix, and four of them con
tributed directly to Taroma's half doz

n'fnth an Innocent little Hlipun nut
the viHitors In a way to make enough
tallies to sew up the game. 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.

his cunning. Mf-Kune opened him up
with a single through short. Callahan

Ouigni fanned. Mllllgan shot a safe

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

the ball by Texas William Yohe .and

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-

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.

Greek strong man, who Is also a stu

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
