V; Froaprcte' Are Hrlght ? Looking he issue scjuarely in the face, St appears now that baseball actually is rolng to have .a hilarious season, in stead of a season replete with woe. The I prediction of the baseball official named n the foregoing was that four big league fcageball clubs were tottering on . the trge of ruin. These same four cities have done their share of sending the national game successfully over the top for the inauguration of this war-time Season. If interest shown on opening day keeps alive the remainder of the Season, baseball will have an average Season to check up when the snow again flea. eed for Hport V It has been argued ever since the war Started that the, nation would be in need of sports during the period of the war, it was contended that nothing would fcerve no well to take the minds of the Jn asses off the gloomy Bide of war-life, to baseball was looked on as the fulflll- ent of this need probably more than ny other Vport. When athletic. games ere staggering around under the body low dealt by tho big eastern colleges asebail kept Its head up, and with no tense tf pessimism, went on through Out the season. Minor leagues began to $o under, and others promised that-they might also surrer n like rate. The in ternational gave up the ghost during the winter after refusing to listen to a roposltlon which would have saved it ut the big leagues kept right on, and testimonial given by the fans proved ese magnates were right.

NEW YORK, May 4. - (l. in. js.j Many names that appeared dally in the box scores last season are missing this yaer. The alluring business of hunting the Hun Is the answer. rractie&lly every major league club is represented In the list or American and National leaguers with the army and navy, and as the wheels of Uncie Samuel'd war machine continue to grind, the list will grow. The American league, -with a larger average of younger players than the Na tional, Is represented by more men, and three clubB In the Junior circuit can boast upward of five service stars. Red Sox ,11 It Hard The upheaval In Red Sox ranks caused by enlistments has almost com pletely changed the complexion of the club, while enlistments, coupled with the sale of players by Connie Mack, has changed the secrecy of the Athletics as completely as if the club had been wiped off the map by a tornado. Boston's American league club Is rep resented under the national emblem by Jack Barry, Duffy Lewis, Krnie Shore, Harold Janvrin. Del Oainor, McNally, Walsh, Pennock and Balder.

N1 EW YORK. May 4. (T. NT. S.I Possessed of a team of veterans. after a few years of experimenting v lth youngsters, Connie Mack, manager of the Philadelphia Athletics, Is likely to surprise tne baseball populace this year. His recent trades have Riven him strength. His team hardly figures now as a last place probability, although that's the spot generally picked for him oy me fans. Hat Strengthened Team Reading down his lineup, it can be seen that Mack has gained strength over his club of a year ago. In. the outfield ne now has Kopp and walker as his main strength. Both are excellent hit ters. George Bums, formerly with the ligers, is praying first baa and hitting m me ciean-up position, a spot he is admirably fitted for. Youngsters are at second ana shortstop, but the veteran. iarry wartlner. is at third base and niuing hard and often. The catching staff. Mack boasts, la veteran and good. pi icmng siair 13 more seasoned than any ne nas inrown into the pennant iiuni ior two seasons. Turns to Veterans When the blowoff of the old Athletics came Mack promised to be back amone the elite by 1917. He wasn't, but before the army began picking off his men he had a young, courageous team that threatened trouble for the opposition in another year. His team of kids and bush recruits was coming alone in startling fashion. He probably would nave ueen picKea to land at tha top of mc necona division I TIPS TO THE HOME OWNERS reasonable terms. It is very apparent that the spirit of "home ownership" has taken hold of Portland. It is particularly noticeable that the workingman is taking advan tage of the high wages he is earning and is determined to own his own home. Mr. McGuire advises the man who is contemplating the buying of a home to do so now, aa prices are continually ad vancing and the bargains of today will soon be sold and taken from the mar ket. Many people feel that they have already waited too long and that the attractive buys are gone. This is not true, for nearly every real tor in the city has many homes for sale which are being offered for. a great deal less than they could be built for. This demand for houses will continue throughout the summer, and Mr. Mc Guire states that by fall It will be nec essary to build more houses. rsow homes are ith!n the reach of all, for they can be bought on terms of from $200 to I5Q0 down andcthe balance like rent, as evidenced by the following le port of sales made during the past week through Mr. McGuire's office : Sold to Herbert Hawkins for the S. Ii. Vincent company, modern home on Fifty-ninth and Sandy boulevard, for a consideration of $2600 Theodore Frazee purchased from II. A. Walker a modern bungalow at 430 East Fifty-third street north for a con sideration of $2600. R. B. Dorney purchased from W. H.

Ther la only a very moderate mar Vet for real estate In Portland now. During the week Just closed, however, tbcre was more than a modrateamount of activity among buyers. Aa a conse quence, the follower of realty are In a better frame of mind. Owing to the enotmoua demanl of money on the part of he government, there Is no telling bow long- even a moderate activity iil last. The war has brought to bear more conditions ad- vcisely affecting real estate than fie business haa been able to cop with, and as a result woaly fluctuations In mar ket conditions is no guide. It has been notU ol by clone follow- of the land market that about mtdwjy between Liberty loan drives buyers are , is North Nasu.; I1hux A Lcliuui. bull more numerous man at any otner lime. ;ers: s.uuu Immediately following a drive, when the I And.n-om. erert one story wwn... ia government reaches out and takes sev eral billions of money, stagnation pre vails, and Just before a drive the pa triotic people save up their money to meet the government's wants and aa a consequence quit buying real estate. One of the most encouraging develop ments of the week Just closed is the number of transactions Involving larger consideration than havj been noticed for some time. Operators and other buyer are fairly numerous when real bargains are m sight, but the real weight of the pur chasing now being done is the confi dence shown In the future stability of land as a safe and sane Investment. Land will always hold fir at place for tha , safe Investment of money. The war may, for the time being, upset this prin ciple, but with the coming of peace the man who Is wise enough to take advant age now of the low prlcvs crevalllng for Portland city property and Oregon farm land will surely be rewarded. Among the sales of any rpnaequenc reported last week were noted the fol lowing: Fractional part of lot and 10. block 7. Kast Portland Heights, waa sold by J. W. Blaine to Fred G. Leary.
