Inasmuch as the Pendleton team won the league cham pionship that season. Manager Bill Fisher, who Is slightly inclined to the "rabbit foot" propaganda, sees a good omen, in the situation . The Portland practice uniforms will be . the same ones the Salt Lake club wore at Porteryille, and when they re turn home they will don the unlfprms worn by the Coast league - Beavers of last season. Inasmuch as a couple of sets of uniforms would set Judge Me Credie back about $700 bucks, and inas much as the suits worn by the Beavers last year are in perfect condition, the ' Portland owner baa concluded to Hoover lze in cloth for the first time since he has been mixed up In baseball. ; laflelser Get Work 'j Infield practice was the initial work f the ' Portlauders, with the. pitchers and outfielder shagging a (aw flies., Manager' Fisher .did not don a uni form' himself 'the first day. but took a critical slant at the 'youth surrounding him. 1 He likes the looks of Heine Hitter, the- little shortstopper from the Portland City league and opines that the more experienced ball players will have a hard time fighting the youngster off. ' The only ball - player besides Fisher who Is in good condition is Jack Sullivan, the Elmira outfielder. He has, of course, been working out with the Salt Lake club and can extend himself going after themvr "" - ; ' ' i: i Fisher expects eight or ten more ball players by tonight or tomorrow morning, and a game will be play of Sunday with the local team, according to present " plans. ,' ; riihcr Shows Zm Place i Wednesday afternoon Boss Fisher and hi players were taken for an auto Tide. during which they Inspected the ' Eastern Oregon State hospital for the ' insane' and Fisher took occasion to re mind some of the bushers of the con venient proximity of this institution in ; warning them against pulling any crasy Stunts while under his tutelage. By way ' of 'exercise they qualified as volunteer firemen later la the day. when they . earn across a biasing barn. . Fisher hopes to be able to turn out for first real practice Friday afternoon.
