SCORE SEVEN
wj m sk
' Ban Francisco, June 21. (P. N. S.)
Williams & Co., representing the city
at Portland, waxed fat In runs and
men fatter In hits In the affray of
Wednesday afternoon at Recreation
prlc'.
They won from the Oaks by a score
f T to 3. The run-maklnj? got so mo
notonous that the attendance in the
light field bleachers stretched out and
took a nap, and his snores furnished a
Bit of diversion marking the occasion.
Kremer Hit 17 Times
The Beavers managed to shock se
verely the young life of Ray Kramer,
Who cot to the point where for the
sake of safety e ducked every time he
Itched the ball. The Beavers landed
est it safely 17 times.
The going was rough for Kremer
from the very start. Kid Hollocher
mashed a single past Eddie Meneor
In Inning one. This was . something
erf a surprise to the Oakland gentry,
an4 by the time Lhey -had recovered
faar runs were over the plate. Bill
Rodgers struck out. Then WUle and
Williams singled in succession, Hollo
cher scoring.
Scores Come Rapidly
A double steal put Wilie across.
Floyd Farmer struck out. Paddy stole
second and with Williams on third Qua
Fisher swatted a two bagger to ths
center pasture, whereupon K Williams
and Paddy reported home. Plnelll fol
lowed with a hit to center. Fisher
tried to score. Lane threw home and
the ball bounded out of Roche's reach
and-shot on to the booze cage. It
bounded oft the wall back to Roche's
hands, and be was able to toss the ba.
to Kremer covering the plate. In time
for the out.
Houck was In shutout form himself
He went a heao longer than did
Kremer, who ran up against K. Williams
& Co., again In the fifth. Houck was
disposed of on a grounder to Sheehan.
Then Hollocher, still with an unbruised
beazer, hit Infield and went to second
on a wide throw to Sheehan. Rodgers
singled, Wilie singled.
t Gets to Be a ' Habit
A stolen base helped things along,
and to wind up with. Ken Williams
stepped up and slugged the ball
against the right field fence. Two more
runs were over the plate. Farmer and
Biglln were Infield outs. With Fisher
. out In the eighth, Plnelll singled to
center, but was caught off first by a
throw from Kremer. Then came ein-
gles by Houck, Hollocher and Rodgers,
: and Houck tallied, Rodgers being the
third out on an attempted steal.
Kremer himself led off for the Oaks
with 'wl two bagger. Then came sin
gles by Men so r and Mlddleton, Kremer
scoring. Lee's infield out scored Men-
- sor and put Middleton on third, and
Kay Wilier brought Roxey home with
a safe smash to center. A boot by
Rodgers put Lane on first. Murphy
forced hfrn at second and Miller and
.. Murphy died on the sacks when Shee-
. han struck out. The score:

Wolverton Unloads
His Story of Woe
San Francisco, June t. (TJ. P.)
Harry Wolverton was deposed as man
ager of the San Francisco Seals wholly
because he had advised Henry Berry,
Seal owner, that he would make a big
mistake If he tried to cut the players'
salaries. In the opinion of Wolverton
himself, expressed In an Interview
printed In a local paper yesterday.
This is the real reason, Wolverton
says, despite Berry's statements to
the contrary.
"When the players consulted me,"
said Wolverton, "I told them I be
lieved salary slashing was not the real
solution of the trouble in the league.
But I added that it was a matter for
each player to take home for himself
and think over calmly before reaching
a decision. I asked the players to take
some action as soon as possible so 1
could tell where I stood In the matter
of a team.
"I told Berry what I had said to the
players and added that he always
knew I had been for him.
" 'You have until now,' he answered
That was the real beginning of the
trouble which culminated In my re
lease. Berry's statement that he was
unable to get along with me In a busi
ness way Is ridiculous.
Augustine Christopher Ardls,
jected.
Billy Nelson and Julius Hy
berg, "pinched" for not having
their registration cards with
them when they applied for en
lishment. Leo Cross, taken in with open
arms after passing a fine phys
ical examination.
This, in brief, is the story of
a quartet of boxers who at
tempted to enlist in the ambu
lance corps of the regular army
yesterday.
Augustine Christopher Ardls
In the ring is known as Bobby
Evans. Although Evans was ac
cepted in the first examination
the second showed that he had
a weak heart after five min
utes of top-speed running. He
was quickly rejected.
Nelson and Hyberg registered
for the draft June 6, but
neither happened to have his
little green slip along. They
were ushered Into another room
where a federal assistant dis
trict attorney was stationed,
and sent out in company with
an officer to get their registra
tion cards. Later they re
turned and took the examina
tion, after undergoing much
chaffing from their friends.
Leo Cross got through with
out a bit of trouble and the
ambulance recruiters look for
him to lift up an ambulance and
carry it into camp if the car-
Dureter goes wrong.

OF BOSTON SOX
Lack of Hitting and Stupid
Baserunnin Cause of the
Club's Decline,
Northwest Umpire
Cannot Find Butte
Seattle, June 21. (TJ. P.) Th
Northwestern Baseball league hag had
Its annual "umpire Jumping" stunt
again.
Ed Eckman, the battling Indicator
man, who holds a K. O. decision over
Manager Hester of Great Falls, was
assigned to referee the Vancouver-
Butte series In Butte this week. He
left Spokane Sunday night for Butte,
dui Kepi rignr. on going to Chicago.
Last year it was Garnet Bush who
walked out between games of a
doubleheader here.
The year before It was Ralph Frarv
who "disappeared" during a series
President Blewett was prepared to
offer Billy Sullivan, veteran Whit
Sox backstop, who was with Seattle
early this season, the place vacated
by Eckman, when reports reached him
that Sullivan was to be offered
the management of the San Francisco
C1UD.
By H. C. Hamilton
New York. June 21. (U. P.) The
most serious slump of the season today
has the Red Sox by the throat, ready
to throttle the world's champion ag
gregation right out of striking distance
of the White Sox.
Since the Barry-piloted clan reached
homo from a brilliant trip, it has lost
10 out of 15 games played, and In more
games than should have been the case
the Red hosed batters failed even to
dent the plate.
On tho other hand, the white Sox
have wandered to victory nln times
In their IS contests, two of the wins
being handed in at the expense of the
Carriganless champions.
Lack of hitting and a predominance
of stupid baserunning has hurt the
Red Sox. Usually a team that will
play for one run and hold up under
it better than any other team In the
big leagues, the Red Sox are now ap
parently helpless without a margin of
three or four runs, irregularities have
crept Into their playing. The machine
Isn't getting along like it used to.
The Bostonese got home on May SI
with a lead of 47 points holding them
In first place. They're second now and
started on a new touT, If they can't
win at home. It's hard to figure them
victorious in foreign fields.

President Tom Darmody has of
fered to sell the franchise "ln five
minutes" to 446 fans who signed a p
tition last night asking former Owner
Eddie Maier to return to his old place
ln the Pacific Coast league.
"If I am not running the ball club
to suit the fans of this city, I want
to get out and let someone else run
it," said Darmody. "I want to do the
best I can to advance th interest of
the national game; I am not looking
for personal glory or monetary re
ward. "If the fellows who signed the pe
tition believe they can run the cluj
better than I, let them come to my of
fice and pay me what I put Into the
club. It won't take five minutes to
close the deal."
Darmody also entered an emphatic
denial of the report that the Vernon
club is scheduled to lose Its franchise.
It was rumored here that the Tigers
were to be made a road club, along
with the Portland club, but Darmody
claims there is not even a suspicion
of truth ln the story.
