If the day gives any prospert of hoMlnt; off with the moisture, piactlcally every racing car Of any merit on the Pacific coast will start around the Hose City Speedway today to give Portland lta first big inter-clty race carnival. Manager Hlller of the Northwest Auto Racing association went out to the track late yesterday a,nd came back with the announcement that the rain thus far had served to put the track In better condition t'nan It was Friday. In fact It can rain up to 10 a. m. at the rate it drizzled yesterday and only make matters better. Can Are Made Beady. The racers xpent yesterday In Riv ing their earn a final shop treatment after the tryouts of Friday. Mechan ically, it Is the bent and highest priced collection that Portland has aeen as each car In the crowd Is built for racing from the ground up. Practically every car there has turned the Kokb City track In less time than It has taken to win races in for mer years, which speaks both for the class of cars present and the condition Of the course which these men say is the fastest of Its kind In the country. One world's record for a dirt mile It already chalked up to the credit of Portland and the possibilities of an other are great. s 'Track in Good State. The rain yesterday served to clean off a little and lay the dust which tho boys picked up Friday night. Another coat of oil was laid on the same day and the combination of the two has done wonders. Before either coat of oil was admin istered, R. A. Hlller had the track scraped so clean It ahone like a waxed floor. The rivalry between the' drivers is bout as keen as the munitions makers' thirst for war. The lay can be placed In two sectlonB. The cars from Spo kane. Tacoma and that direction have a little fight all their own. while the Gandy Special, the Omar and the Craw ford from down south are just as hard after each other while both ends of the coast are playing the "native son" line. qOMP OF HFIvlflMQ AAWrt ARP RFAHY TO QTART ON, RHQF P.ITY TRAP.K TO HAY I M I SSTATElVl EN 11 l I l 11 y I VS V V I Va I Ik i I I I tr I I I l I I IX -- , -- -w ' ' j I . .

Leading pitchers for games: s 14 or more YOU CAN PROVE MOST ANYTHING WITH BASEBALL Take Case of Chief Bender of the Phillies, for Instance. New York, July 15. Home folks might find In the case of one Charles I "Chief) Bender an argument to ahow that the Federal league of 1915 was somewhat speedier than the National "circuit of flhe present time. ' Bender worked for the Baltimore Feda last year; and his performance was something awful. He labored in 10 games and the result was: Won 4, lost 16, average .200. That tended to ahow that Bender, as a big leaguer, was very much through. And now In 1916 we find the aborig ine heaving In the National league and atandlng most of the opposing batsmen on their domes. Just a few days ago he pitted his fin against the Giants, supposed to be the heaviest clouting Organization in the game, and he eat them without any undue exertion. The same curves and alow balls and speed ers which the Fed mace artists hatted hither and yon, deceived the Giants to atich an extent that ttey looked quite foolish In their efforts to hit. Bender won five of his first nine games as a Phlllle. In two of the four he lost he had the toughest kind of luck. Furthermore. Bender, who yield ed an average of 4.27 runs per game aa a Federal leaguer, has allowed less than three runa In the National. Watson, what do you deduce? Earned Runs per Won. Lost. Game. Hughes.

Several Sumpter sDortsmen have been enlisting support of local fishermen and hunters In fi nancing a motor road to Olive lake, a popular fishing and hunting ground, now Inaccessible to autos, but which can be reached with the construction of about Jwo and a half miles of new road. The cost la not great and the sup port given the project assures its be ing carried through this summer. Sumpter has raised some money and together with what is secured here will bo ample. It Is believed. J. O. Meadows, a prominent mining man of Sumpter, Is behind the move ment and he is also seeking support In the construction of an auto road from Sumpter to North Powder lakes. which would make nine mountain lakes and tributary territory accessible to autos This road would be In Baker, Union and small portion of Grant coun ty, and would make possible an auto trip from Baker to La Grande via Sumpter and the lakes, without touch ing the "main highway in Powder val ley over the Telocaset divide to the Grande Ronde valley. Mr. Meadows ihas also enlisted much support for this projectwhich may be carried out an other year. New York, July IB. The sensational playing of Jake Daubert around the' first bag is one of the several reasons for Uie great showing of the Dolgers this year. Jacob has risen to heights this season greater than ever before. He has been making stops and throws that have brought gasps of amazement from even the most blase fans. The other Dodger lnfielders are none too accurate in their pegging. But It makes- no difference. They dotVt need to be with Jake on first. High or low, wide or straight at him, Jake manages to grab the ball. He digs them cut of the real estate or leaps six fe;t into the air. He spears them with his gloved mitt, while his body is stretched out to Its lull limit, or he grabs them with the ungloved palm. A dozen times at least since the season began. Daubert's uncanny skill in snaring the wild heaves has waved a game for the Brooklynltea. Times 'without number he has grabbed atro cious flings and killed off runnc-s go ing to first. Just how many rallies Paubert has checked, or how many runs he has choked off for the Dodger foes is something that no one can tell with any degree of accuracy. But they have been many in number. GETS 'SLEEP POTION DREAMS MAS TT TO BE NEXT CHAMP ON "Silent" Rexter Has Great Faith in Punching Ability of Coulon's Opponent, CLEVELAND FAN STILL NURSING PENNANT HOPES Easterner Says High Place Maintained Because of Others' Slowness, Empty Shells Are Worth Coin to Clubs Gun cltfbs will find their empty ahells are .'worth money If thev will gather them up after each shoot, and sell them when tley get a barrel or so. A gun club secretary Informed us a few days ago that he had secured 93 pounds of brass from two barrels of empty shells. The brass' he soil at 11 cents per pound, or $10.45 for the lot, proving that it surely pays to save and sell the empty shells. Ber Signs Life Contract. John Berg, the heavyweight wrest ler, who Is well known In this section of the country, was married June 24 to Miss Astrid Anderson of Spokane. The announcement was rot made until a few days ago. "Mascott will be the next cham pion." So. scribbled "Silent" Rexter, tne deaf and dumb boxer of Salem, Or., on an old card after he had returned from a trip to the milky way during a sparring exhibition with the local bantamweight, who meets Johnny Coulon, ex-bantamweight champion, in a return bout next Friday night. Mas cott slipped the sleeping potion to Rexter in a couple of rounds of fast milling and the Cherry city boxer now holds Mascott in high esteem. The local boy has been training hard for the past week, but Is taking his time In making the required weight. He has been doing a great deal of boxing with Johnny Bosco vitch, who will meet Ernie Madden In one of the preliminaries. Road work has formed the biggest part of Coulon's training during tho past week. Johnny Is anxious to have his wind in the best of shape so that he can go at top speed. During thla week, Coulon plans to do a lot of sparring with Jockey Bennett and Able Gordon. The ex-title holder believes that he will be able to make a better showing against Mascott in their return bout. because he will have had time to get oetter snape. coulon Jumped off train on Thursday and boxed The Indians are skidding, not rapld- 1 ly but they are slipping Just the same. says an eastern writer. For the past three weeks they have been settling into their real stride, and, as a result. their fat percentr ?e mark or June 1 has shriveled away. Out in Cleveland the natives still nurse world series hoeps. But It doesn't seem as If they will be realized this year. The Indians seem to lack all around power necessary for a six months' pennant drive. They got away well and have sur prised baseball by their game fight ever since. But their high place in the table up to date probably can be ex plained by the fact that the class clubs hadn't started. The Red and White Sox, the Yankees and the Tigers even the Browns played In-and-out base ball during the first 12 weeks of the campaign. All those clubs at last seem under way. As a result, the Tndians aren't win ning with the regularity of the spring time. They are being humped quite frequently. Class eventually tells, and the Indians are settling toward their natural level sixth place. Their early spurt may enable them to hold the bottom rung of their division and it may not. in the Mascott on a Monday and had but four days to work out, only one ol which was on the road. Coulon WIU Bo la Bhapa. Coulon will be in shape this time to meet Mascott. The little Chicagoan has been doing a lot of roadwork and his wind Is better than when he boxed here the last time. Although he is giving away a lot of weight, he be lieves that his better condition will enable him to beat Mascott handily. It will pay Coulon to be In good shape for toward the end of the month he Is going to San Francisco to box four rounds with Eddie Calhpi' or some other good boy. Johnny may stay on. the coast for several months, as he likes it out here. The cool Former Major League Play ers Appear in Line-Up of Valley Team, INTERCITY How the leaders In the local automo bile field look upon such methods of bolstering up a sales organization as are now being practiced by a Portland firm, Is expressed by Howard M. Covey, veteran Cadillac and Dodge dis tributor, who has always managed to keep the Cadillac before the public and who had a lot to do with the fact that nearly 600 Dodges have been sold In Oregon since January 1. The reference Is to the exploits of the Oregon Paige Motor Sales com pany, which now Is advertising "the car which ellmbed Mount Hood." "Such methods can, in a way, not be considered anything less than an ln Hult to the rest of the automobile deal ers as It reflects on the dignity and standing of the industry. I particu larly refer to the claim, 'the car that climbed Mount Hood,' " said Mr. Covey. Statement Called Absurd. , "Everyone knows the absurdity of such a statement. Do not misunder stand me. 1 do not decry the work of men who get out and do stunts, though I do believe that much so-called auto- mobtle publicity is nothing short o(, bunk" '.. jJ "I think we are all Interested in "good roads' and any work which an , automobile may do In connection with, opening up a road, or showing a new section of the Country to the motorist. ' Is a service to the motoring public and to the automobile Industry becauso tt shows the possibilities of automobllas and their place as the means of an Joying the out of doors. "But. I do believe that such exploit . a the recent attompt to uso men to pull a car up the side of Mount Hood Is an erroneous conception of me inrms 01 puumuy inu au voi nm, - because It cannot possibly mean any ' thing to the auto buying public. "It was merely a question of men. It Is ridiculous to claim that It was any test of the car's qualities. Whll It may be as good as many, such fool Uhness as dragging and pulling It over cleated nlank laid on top of snow would never Indicate Its real worth to the public." Frank Branch Riley, leader, of the' Maxanias, is another who believes that the exploits of the Paige have dona incalculable harm In the way of dis seminating wrong Impressions. Swluerland has gained fame because It offers to the tourist such clean and wholesome sport as mountain climbing, which Is like golf seeming ly very queer until It has been tsled. Such men who have never tried It her nor abroad are hardly In a ponltton to judge It. However, it would be rather queer to have Inquiries come Into the Cham ber of Commerce asking what rates could be made for an automobile to take 10 people to the top Vt Mount Hood. Building of Roads By Contract Dropped Wayne county, Michigan, has ellml nated the system of building roads by contract and employs experts to build Its concrete roads. Milwaukee, Wis consin contracts its road work, but fur nishes the materials and employs ex perienced men as Inspectora. BASEBALL LEAGUE. Won. Lost.
