For the fourth straight tithe the obliging little Beavers from noiih of the Slskl yous stepped right up and took their beating. The score was 6 to 1. It was "Spider Baum" day and the Seal pitcher celebrated It by winning an easy victory, quite in contrast to tfyf usual stunt of a pitcher when he made over. And the Seals are leading the old league. That the Beavers were not blanked rti due to the blngllng of Gus Fisher In the fifth. Stumpf doubled and Qua rushed' to the front with a twobagger MeCredie made good his word In try IngK to make an outfielder of Fisher anl had him stationed In right again yesterday. August gatnered a pair of blngles. Carlsch followed with a grounder to Jones and Stumpf e oeat the throw home. Derrick bunted and Beatty threw to Jones to catch Fisher, but the toss was late and the bases were ' again filled. Ward rolled the ball to Jones, who caught Fisher at home, ana Sepulveda relayed to Beatty to nab Ward for a double play. Baum made Lush pop to Downs and the Seals were out of danger for the rest of the game. San Francisco made two runs In ths first Inning when, with the bases full, Beatty's Infield single scored Sohaller and Jones' Infield out al lowed Bod(e to score.

Louis 3 8 0 Cincinnati 1 7 4 Batteries Meadows anil Snyder; Schneider and Wlngo. Forest Hills, L. I., Sept. i. (U. P.) Of the 128 entries for the national tennis championship only eight were left when play started today in the fifth round for the title. Monday will see the semi-finals, with the hat tie for the championship on Tuesday. Aside from the unexpected upset given Karl Behr by W. M. Johnston of California, the players remaining for the closing matches are the men who were generally picked to fight their way through. Johnston's stock was boosted high today as a result of his defeat of Behr and he Is re garded as a strong contender. Another coast player n ust be eliminated today, however, as Johnston meets C. J. Oriffin of San Francisco. It was Grif fin who beat Ward Dawson of Los Angeles and reduced the number of California representatives to three. McLoughlin has one decision over Johnston for this year in the exposi tion championship. The "comet" was forced to his limit to win, however, and should this pair meet again here a real battle is anticipated. The matches today were: K. Norrls Williams and William Rand III; N. C. Wright and T. R. Pell; W. M. Johnston and C. J. Griffin; Maurice McLoughlin and F. T. Hunter. The summary of yesterday: Johnston defeated Behr, 3-6, 6-3, 6-2, 7-5. C. J. Griffin defeated B. C 6-1', 6-4, 8-2. It. N. Williams II defeated Adouo Jr., 6-3, 6-1, 6-0. M. F.. McLoughlin defeated Alexander, 6-3, 6-2, 1-6, 6-3. William Hand III defeated Biddle, 3-6, 6-3. 6-3, 2-6, 6-2. C. K.

Frank Pars low, the Portland welterweight, and fCharlie Fox, champion of the Pacific coast reserve fleet, divided honors last evening in one of the fastest 10-round exhibitions ever witnessed in the city. While no decision waa given, the affair could not have been called any thing but a draw. The boys mixed it freely during the entire go. Parslow appeared even cleverer than on former occasions when he has boxed here, but was hard ly aa strong as his opponent, who is more of a fighter than a boxer. Pars low evidenced some clever foot work Which saved him from the sailor's punches more than once. In the sixth Fox landed on Parslow's eye with a left hook and from that time until the end of the go, the participants mixed it freely. Parslow never for a moment lost his smile, and In the end came back strong. Fox was not aa strong toward the last of the bout, but was by no means ready to give up. VERNON UPSETS ANGELS R. H. E.

P.) Despite a downpour of rain, which made the fairways soggy, a huge crowd followed Robert A. Gardner of Chicago and John G, Anderson of Mount Ver non, N. T.. today when they began the final round for the American ama teur championship at the Detroit Coun try club. The greens were slow and the putting uncertain. There was little to choose between the men, and betting was at even money. Gardner won the national title several years ago, and Anderson was runner-up to Jerome D. Travers In 1913. Both are players of the highest class, but Gardner Is somewhat erratic and Anderson is noted for his steady and consistent play. Anderson's steadiness was too much for Gardner during the morning round, and the easterner ended the first 18 holes 1 up. The Gardner-Marston match was a hummer, and the Chicago veteran was hardly conceded a chance after the thirty-first hole had been played by the large gallery that braved the sun to see the round. Marston was up and Gardner had been missing on the short putts. However, the situation sudden ly changed, and Gardner got three holes in par. Gardner made the thirty-sixth hole, and it remained for Marston to sink a two foot putt to win the match. The easterner missed and the match was squared, sending It to the thirty seventh hole, where Gardner was on the green In two, the Chicago man having outdriven his opponent all day, only to fail on the green in the tarlier holes. ' He took two puts for a par four, while Marston took three shots to get on the green, and missed his fourth stroke for the hole. In view of the close match being played by Marston and Gardner, the Sherman-Anderson match was almost overlooked. Anderson was two up at the thirty-fifth hole, and both missed putts, thereby ending the match. An exhibitfon match will be staged thig afternoon by the Detroit Country club for Chick Evans, Francis Ouimet and Jerome Travers, the three greatest amateur golfers in the United StateB, the match to be 18 holes, medal play, for a handsome trophy. m Centralia Has Large List of Footballers Centralia, 8ept. 4 Centralia will be well represented on the university gridirons of the northwest again this year. Elmer Nobles, who has been one of Doble'a backfleld mainstays at the Un iversity of Washington, will return to school, as will also John Markham. Markham nearly rtanded a job in the line two years ago, and with his added age and weight it is expected that he will make good this year. Defitt Yeager will return to the Ore gon Agricultural college. Yeager's work attracted attention in lDHajand his friends predict he will develop into a sensation this year. William Grimm, one of the best allaround athletes ever turned out of the local high school and a brother of Warren and Huber, who made the family name famous in athletics at Washington, will enter the state university.

Tin celebration will go down as one of the most famous of the exposition ; functions. This accomplishment of the expo sition company has established a rec ord, for no exposition has ever suc ceeded In paylnK off its Indebtedneiid before It was half over. Consequently there was reason for the rejoicing and for the throng; of 100,000 which gath ered In the -Court of the Unl verse at' the exposition last night to hear President Charles C.
