GIANT FIRSTSACKER IN SHAPE
Henry Berry of San Francisco W ires He Plans Visit to Northwest;
May Be Interested in P. C. I. L; jidge to View Team at
Pendleton Bogart Wil I PlayiWiuV Aberdeen.
HENRY lJLRRx, the California Ijiascball magnate, wno re
cently disposed of his interest in the Sap Francisco Coast
J. league team to Charley Graham ind his associates, contem
plates a visit to the northwest. Judge McCredie, the portly owner
of the Portland Beavers, received a telegram from Berry Monday,
asking if the judge would be in Portland Friday, but-the judge
wired Berry to postpone his visit until jnext week.
Whether Berry's visit is a pleasure trip or whether it, means
that Berry is anxious to hook up. with one of the northwest clubs
is not known, but as all thiners are uncertain these davs. it would
nbt be surprising if the former owner of the Seals was not casting,
around for a P. CI. L. league franchise, with a view of making
the Coast league an eight club circuit next season.
Yanks 6, , Washington 3
Washington, April 16. (I. N. S.) The
rejuvenated Yankees spoiled the fun for
10,000 Washington fans Monday by fath
oming Walter Johnson for 11 hits in the
opening game of the season here and
beaUng the Nationals, 6 to 3. Some
heavy stick work in the first and third
innings, in which Baker's bat played a
big part, gave the, Yankees two runs in
each of these sessions and kept them in
the van.
President Wilson could not find time
to attend the game and the ball to start
play was tossed out by Commissioner
Brownlow.

player who is not what he thought.
Beleng not what Fisher thought he

Portland team the latter part of the

call for B. Shoup. who Is an experi

' John ' Tiger" Smith,
April 16. (I- N. S.)
formerly ; a
welterweight boxer of Brooklyn, wis
notified by the United States supreme
court this afternoon that it has upheld
his foster father's will, bequeathing him
more than $1,000,000 In money and prop
erty. The will was contested by two
brothers of Smith's benefactor, who
adopted him when he was a slip of a
boy.
Ixniisville, Ky., April 16. (I. N. S.)
The announced boxing bout between
Packey McFarland, boxing instructor at
New York,
16. (I. N.
There is something
peculiarly im
pressive about Hugh
Abrose Jennings.
He seems to rafli
ate baseball brains,
ability to do things
and grim confidence.
He is known as a
fighter and a .hus
tler, and the spirit
he injects Into his
players is - nothing
less than magnetic.
Hugh Jennings on the "coaching line
is a sort of dynamo of inspiration to the
members of his club. ' When llughie fs
out there plugging for - a hit. a stolen
base or a run. every member of his team
is plugging just as hard, mentally. And
is means something. It means that -a
break or two in favor of the Tigers Is a
bigger advantage to them than to many
of the other clubs in the two big leagues.
Ranks With the Best
As a student of baseball .and a great
judge of players, Jennings ranks with
the best. His ability, to teach outfield
ers, infielders and catchers the fine
points of the game is very well known,
just as well known as his uncanny talent
of making well organized fighting ma
chines out of his ball clubs. Jennings'
one shortcoming, seems to be his inabil
ity to share the usual luck of managers credit.
In finding and developing pitchers.
is a shortcoming that no one can explain,
but it is there.
In every other way Jennings Is a bear,
but the pitchers have always been his
hoodoo. He has acquired his knowledge
of baseball In years of service. Back in
1894, '95 and '96 he was the leading
shortstop of the National league. He
was a mainstay of the old Baltimore
champions, and a club mate of McOraw,
Brouthers, Carey and Jack Doyle. He
ranked also as one of the league's great
est hitters.
Started With Looslvllle
.Jennings was" born in Moolic, Pa.,
in 1871 and started out as a semi-pro
player in 1890. He broke into the Na
tional league with Louisville and the
following year, 1893, was traded to Bal
timore. Later he played in Brooklyn
and Philadelphia, finally going back to
Baltimore as manager of'the club, which
was then in the Eastern league.
Jennings took a sheepskin away from
Cornell university, mixing study with
his baseball to do it. He became so
widely known that Detroit tried to pur
chase him from Baltimore and, failing
in that, drafted him in the fall of 1906.
Since that time he has been In the har
ness for the Tigers, and he has always
given Detroit a good club. He Is known
as one of the most honorable and fear
less managers In the game. Though he
has never won a world's title, he has
three American league pennants to his
PORTLAND bowlers made their pres
ence known in the annual tournament
at Spokane, which ended Sunday night
with special matches. The Portland al
ley team No. 1 captured the five man
championship and finished first In the
sweepstakes Sunday. In the tournsvmont
event the locals totaled 28(8 and in the
sweepstakes 2878. The M. L. Kline team
won fourth money.
Harvey Ollroy of Portland won second
money in' the singles with 632. Other
singles scores of local bowlers were :
Kruse. 699 ; Henry, 594 ; Blaney, 519 ; R.
V. Jones, t90; J. Kldon. 508; M. Flavin.
475 ; B. Kneyse. 554 ; C. Merrick. 448 ;
Melvin, 575 ; Moffet, 621 ; Weybusch, 620 ;
De Haven. 586 ; V. S. Kates. 499:
Kneyse. Portland, paired with Tonery
of Spokane, captured fifth place in the
doubles. . DeHaven and Henry finished
sixth with 1167, four pins behind Kneyse
and his partner. Kstes rolled 618 in the
doubles and, with his partner, totaled
1117. Moffett and Weybusch made 999
and Gilroy and Merrick 1075.
Charles Bell of Spokane won the all
events, repeating his victory of last year.
C. J. Kruse. the Portland crack, won
a special 10-game singles match from
Sartcr, the Spokane star. Kruse aver
aged better than 205 for the 10 games.
and barter averaged 181. The match
was for a purse of $100.
McCarthy to Manage Newark
New York. April 16. (I. N. S.)
Tommy McCarthy, former baseball
player and of late years a scout for
both Boston clubs, was today announced
as the new manager of the Newark
club in the new International league.
McCarthy Is associated with the new
owners at Newark and the situation In
the Jersey town is said to have been
satisfactorily smoothed out. The names
of the new owners have been withheld.
It might be well for the Hetmen of
the Ancient Order of Khuds to take
this matter up in council and properly
castigate young Mr. Fisher for his lack
luster allegiance. For one southpaw per
son to think of sending another south
paw person on his way is not atrategem
but treason.
But' Shoup Is not a southpaw. Let
that sink in. Where Fisher got the
idea that Shoup was of the same or
der of human beings as Rube Wad
dell and Walter Malis he does not
know. Great wast the rejoicing, there
fore, when Will Siioup of Kvansville
showed up with a, well worn left
handed glove and a safe and sane
right hand with which to throw the
ball. '
"I'm tickled to death.", said Fisher
when he 'saw Shoup warm up for the
first time.
Th newcomer has all the actions
of a pitcher, and lT,e Lest argument I
for this is that the Cleveland Ameri
cans -held a string on him for two
years and then sent htm to ror. and,
with whom Cleveland enjoys the
friendliest relations. This la tanta
mount to saying that Cleveland has a
paternal if not a proprietary interest
in the good looking youngster.
Shoup has been pitching for three
years, being a product of the fast Chi
cago City league. He was signed by
Cleveland In 1916 and : remained four
months, when he was sent to Daven
port in the Three I league for develop
ment. He was recatiea in 117 and
then turned over to Kvansville in the
Central league for further development.
He had a good year with Evans vllle,
but when the Central league failed to
start this year he was -turned back
to Cleveland and sold outright to Port
land. Bat Maybe He Will Be.
Shoup is In clans A-l of. the draft,
but before coming West visited his
board in Chicago and. was Informed
that he was so far down on the list
that he could come out to the North
west and probably would not be called
during the course of the season.
Owing to a cold wind blowing across
Roundup field yesterday Fisher called
otf the practice, fearing his players
might suffer muscle-tied arms.
Inflelder Hessian asked lor his re
lease yesterday so that he could
work In Portland shipyards. Sands,
Fuerborn and Morton have not arrived
from the Salt Lake club, but are ex
pected dally. Fisher also has his lines
out for Third Baseman Walter "Hack
Altermath of the Kvansville club, who
was tipped off to Fisher by Shoup. He
was two years with Kvansville and orig
inated in Boise.
