Manager Walter McCredle of the
Portland Beavers haa a bunch that
Kred Beebe, tha veteran twtrlar turned
OTfr by tha Cleveland Americano, will
riot report on. the coast neat spring.
Jf ha doesn't McCredfe'a pitching
groblems will ba further complicated,
ut tha Portland leader says he can
Ct aoma mighty fine tradea for Beece
In tha American asaoolatlon and tha
International league.
Beebe, who owna a farm In a small
Colorado town, and who haa been
drawing a bit salary from tha majors,
VPortlanl club will offer him. At best.
e may not last over two years, so
Fred will ba asked to state hln posi
tion at once, ao that aoma disposition
may ba made of him one way or the
other.
Of course, If Beeb should ba an
other Jack Ryan, ba would ba valuable
timber fof tha Beavers for several
year to come, as the Los Angeles vet
eran Was counted down and out before
ITrank Dillon took Pity on him and
-rave him a Job. He aecured a new
lease of life on the coast and has been
one -of the leading pitchers in the
leaarue since. Ha can't be any older
than Beeba. When a ball player la
quipped with a farm, farming imple
ments and aoma livestock, and ha Is
years old and has played baseball
fpr a good many seasons, tha chances
are bright that ha may skip the atreet
cars for the new mown hay at any mo
ment of the day or night. Therefore.
Jt behooves the McCredles to find out
Just where they stand In the matter.
It Is very simple, ' Indeed, Watson.
By process of Induction, deduction and
light, heat and fire tests, ye scribe dis
covered thst Walter McCredle was
dickering for a. pitcher in the New
' Tork State league, name refused. We
announced, that we'd be willing to lay a
little bet, if we were a bookie, that It
was Torn Helfrlch of the Harrlsburg
club. v We'd have won. McCredle. ad
mitted yesterday that Helfrlch was the
man, that he had accepted terms and
that; all that remained was for him to
sign a contract and to pay the money
over to tha Harrlsburg club for the
.eaetwlrler.
Bill Sullivan, ex-American leaguer,
drove tn from hla apple orchard, some
where in the Kehalem valley, for the
holidays. Billy has Just sent away a
carload of apples from hla orchard for
Sacramento, being the first oppor

two youngsters are progressing so
rapidly at, baseball that he can't tell

Vnlverslty of Oregon, Eugene, Dec.
2$. Should Oregon triumph over
Pennsylvania on New Year's day.
much of the credit must go to the
brawn and muscle developed on Oregon
farms.
Coptain Beckett heads the list as a
prize agriculture product. Minus even
his stocking feet, Beckett tips the
scale at 190. He has spent his sum
mers for years in the Heppner oeun
try. haying and harvesting.
Mitchell was raised on a ranch at
Chlco, Cal. Ridley, the all-star center,
lives on the paternal farm a few miles
from Mllwaukie. Bartlett grew into a
six-foot heavyweight in the farming
country of Kstacada.
Tegart's family lives on a ranch a
mile or two from Gresham and the
towheaded Oregon end learned to toss
hay bundles long beforo he ever saw
a football.
Johnny Parson's father owns a farm
in eatsern Multnomah and believes
that muscle Is Just as useful when
applied to a pitchfork an when userf
to advance a couple of yard sticks.
Montelth has spent several of his sum
mers working on the farm of the
former Aggie star. Abraham.
The Huntington brothers are Just
a atep removed from the wheat
fields. They truck the grain from
the farmer's wagons into the flour
mill at The Dalles.
Ho, If reports be true that nine of
the Pennsylvania men run their own
cars, the New Year's game may decide
the relative merits of pitchforks and
gear shifting levers.

Charles "Chick' Evans, open and na
tional amateur golf champion, as

trip to California and will coach the
Chicago sluggers in the iorra of bai
ting. This announcement was made yes
terday by President Charles Weegham
cf the Cubs. The Cub boss declares
that Evans will be able to improve
the batting of every man on Ihe clun.
"There Is form In the driving if a
golf ball." said Weegham. "But
there Is none In the driving of a
baseball. Take Cy Williams for in
stance. He stands at the plate swing
ing his bat all the while and it is
physical Impossibility for him to keep
his eye on the oncoming , ball. He
hits the ball a terrific clout, but does
not begin to get the dlstanca that ha
would if he followed through as 4
golfer does. Applying the form of golf
to baseball was responsible for the
wonderful driving power developed by
Frank Schulte and Heinle Zimmerman.
It may be argued Schnlte knew noth
ing about golf, but he unconsolously
used the same swlnga.
"I am sure after Chick haa tan got
my men the forms 'of golf applied to
baseball we will have a team of slug
gers, a team that will wla a pennant."
