hi I"HE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND. WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 19, 1914. CHRISTIAN'S COMMUTERS DRAW FIRST CLARET AGAINST CHAMPIONS RODGERS 'FAUX PAS GIVES OAKS CHANCE TO GARNER OPENER For Second Time in Two Weeks Cap'n Bill Lets Man Tally on Fly, KLAWITTER IS A PUZZLE Xpa Champion Away from MaU, Althontfi Thoy Kaka TlT Kits la Xat Two Prams. Bill Rodgers' mental carbureter had the wrong mixture yesterday, and one of the cylinders In his cerebreum missed fire In the sixth inning, paving the way for a 3 to 0 victory for the Oakland tallenders In the first game of the series. For the second time in two weeks Bill allowed a man to score from third base on an infield fly. In this respect the hard working Port land captain Is a unique personage. Up to Captain Bill's faux pas Klawlt ter and Kvans had been fighting along at a great rate, with honors even and no tally In sight. Kvans left the box for a pinchltter In the eighth, and Rleger finished up the game. The Beavers got five of their eight hits off the Oakland Dutch man in the eighth and ninth innings, and It began to look so precarious that Manager Christian hied himself out to the warm up line In preparation for an emergency. However. Rodgers' three costly er rors were not to be overcome, the two double plays In the last two frames putting the game on Ice. With one out In the fifth, Klawltter started the winning of his own game by cracking a hard one throasrli short. Mlddleton was safe when Rodgers let a grounder roll through his legs. Then Guest dropped a fly back of second base that Doane couldn't get in the wild scramble. Kaylor raised a fly to Kougers tnat Bill backed up on. Kla wltter. who Is no speed demon, started ror tne plate, Rodgers started to run in witn the ball and then winged it badly to Fisher. Klawltter scored, and before Fisher could head off the pill Mlddleton was across and Guest on third. Ness made the last out. in the eighth Inning, with two out and Gardner on first. Fisher pegged Beautifully to Rodgers to head off a steal. Umpire Mayes waved Mid out out Rodgers dropped the throw. Then Zacher singled through short, and Mid dleton scored. With two on and two out In the eighth, Bancroft fanned, and In the ninth, with one on and two out, Korea nit into a aoutie play. The Oaks played errorless ball, whllp Lobar and Lush furnished the fielding sensation sturr ror the Beavers. Score: OAKLAND. If Mlddleton Guest. Ksylor, rf Nia. 2b . . . ;r1ner, lb Zarher. cf ...

DUGDALE'S PEEVE IS GROWING AND HE NOW THREATENS TO JUMP Seattle Magnate Says if Di rectors Are Conspiring He Will Try for Coast League, SOMETHING UP SLEEVE Korthwettarn Deadlocked oa Successor to Jones; Secret Meeting With Big- Tows Magnate Absent. Seattle, Wash., Aug. 19. The direc tors of the Northwestern baseball league went into session at 9 a. m. to day, after a long-drawn out confer ence yesterday, which lasted 10 hours without result, in an effort to elect a successor to Fielder Jones, who re signed the presidency of the league to take over the management of the St. Louis Federal league club. While the magnates are reticent concerning the meeting. It is believed the deadlock is the outcome of a concerted effort by Presidents Dugdale and Farr of the Seattle and Ballard clubs, respectively, to put a local man in the office. Rob ert Blewett, an attorney, who formerly pitched for the Boston Nationals, and Washington Americans, Is said to be Dugdale's candidate. In an Interview this morning before the directors meeting. Dugdale made the following statement: "I have positive Information that the directors held a second meeting for the purpose of plotting against me, and the interest of the Seattle baseball club. I waited In the hotel lobby three quarters of an hour before the rest of the directors came down stairs. "If I find that it is true the direc tors are conspiring to give me the worst of it, 1 shall do all In my power to place the Seattle club In the Pacific Coast league." Dugdale stated further that if the Coast league plan falls through he has something else up his sleeve. It was reported today that following the adjournment last night, five of the directors immediately retreated to an adjoining room for a secret confer ence, from which uuguaie was excluded.

One-third more than No-Rim-Cut Tires the world's top place tires the tires that outsell any other. Consider what that means. It means $5 to $15 extra on each tire you buy. It means one-third more tire upkeep unless they are better tires. It means that three of the extra-price tires cost as much as four No-Rim-Cuts. It means that the same price or less would buy a half inch wider Goodyear. Extra prices are unjust No man knows of any way to build better tires than Good years. We spend $100000 yearly in our efforts to find a way. In the four ways list ed at the right, no other tire equals the Good year. Men have bought four million Goodyears. They have tried- them out. As a result, they buy more of them than of any other tire.
