' By R. A. Croala CROCKETT. Cal., March 24. Pitchers Lukanovlc and Cooper were too much for Blankenshlp's Maryland bowlers of Oakland, and held them to two hits, a double ' off each. McCredle's regulars made 14 hits off southpaw Artie Ben ham, of which I1 Barker, garnered three, and they were good for a 4 to 0 win.- Some good fielding toward the end . of the game held down the count. .-: Harl Macgert. who played center for the, Bowlers, had a tough day of It, as the- Beavers were raining everything front singles to triples Into his territory and they, were all going safe in the first Inning.

TWO CLUBS FIGURE AS DARK ONES American League Bosses Will Keep Eye on Connie Mack; Reds Bear Watching. , rVTEW YORK. March 24. (I. With a majority of major By Jack Vetoek league clubs inaugurating spring training in Dixie today, the baseball experts are casting about for entrants that may fig ure as dark horses in the coming cam paign. Several teams in both major leagues may be figured in this class, but two teams, one in each circuit, are being re garded as -most likely" to furnish sur prises. Tets to Return One of these teams will be piloted by the veteran Connie Mack. The Athletics, with the capable players of last eeason back in harness, and such performers as Witt. Grover and Bates, back from the service, show possibilities that are difficult to measure. Mack's outfield will be considerably strength ened through .the addition of Bobby noth. secured in the deal with Cleveland, and Fred Thomas, from Boston, may as sist the leader of the once great Ath letics in reestablishing his name as a wizard. Teams like the Red Sox. White Sox, Cleveland Indians and Yankees -know Just about what to expect from one an other. But the Athletics are an un known quantity and hard to figure. In the National league rival managers will keep a weather eye on Pat Moran, who inaugurates his regime as the man ager of the Cincinnati Reds. May Sign Herzog Moran's success when he took hold of the Phillies is still fresh in the memories of his brother managers. At Cincinnati "Sir Patrick" will step in with a club that has great natural hitting ability, and it is understood that he will call in Qscar Dugey as his assistant. Moran's one great problem is the filling of the shortstop position, and it is predicted that he, will sign Buck Herzog for this important Job. IDAHO AND UTAH MEN TO GO EAST AFTER BIG BOUT Intermountain States to Send Committee East to Dicker for Willard-Dempsey Fight. Pocatello, Idaho, March 24. (U. P.)

Crockett Training Camp Shortstops By B. A. Cronln Crockett, Cal., March 24. Few young catchers with a Portland ball club have shown the ability .of Wirts, the youngs ster who was with St. Marys college for three years and then went to Spo kane last spring, later finishing ou( the season in the Portland shipyards. We'll lay a hat to a doughnut that Wirts will make good as a catcher. He has action behind the plate and he can hit the ball well. He is more advanced than Dorman, but boys, this rangy San Francisco youngster is going to be heard from. A year in Texas or the Central association will do Dorman a world of good. Wirts may open the season with the Beavers, if Koehler is unable to get out of the army, and it looks now as if he will give his more experienced rival quite a battle for the job of understudy' to Del Baker. Some of the northern bays5 who get their drinking water from the sriow-ctad hills of Oregon . and Washington, the purest water in the wide world, find it difficult to drink the alkali aqua of California. The water here is more alkaline in structure than that of the eastern or. central Oregon country- Frank Walker takes as wicked a cut at the ball of any medium plied fellow that we've seen. He looks as if he might hit a good deal to left field, but his drives are going to be long wherever they go. Walker is yonng but he has a natural finish to his work in the out field, having the knack of starting with the ball, which makes his ground cover ing look large. There is no more conscientious work er in camp than Rapp and the little left hander who saw so much service in the New York State league is going to make a bid for the job of leading left handed pitcher. There is one thing that Rapp knows, and that is how to pitch. His easy delivery makes It pos sible for him to work more often than the ordinary ball player. We have a little smoke bet on with Art Ritter. Art thinks that Seattle will have a bigger opening day crowd than Portland. Art, we might add, is very young and he has a lot to learn about the psychology of baseball crowds. Given a nice warm day and at dry field in each northern city, we are ready to smoke all summer on our misguided friends who think as does the youthful Mr. Ritter, the well-known foul chaser. One of the San Francisco papers as serted that Bill Rodgers and the Raw Meat boys from Sacramento say the reason the Senators were billed for one week in the Rose City was to relieve Walter McCredie of a lot of kidding at the hands of his ex -employes, who carry all the howls of the wood, and plain in their rooting. We were talking the northerner. Battling Ortega, who to reslle'" un V rer day and was scheduled to meet George Shade ofTthe Prexy 8ays that Judgre McCredle's schedule calls for two i visits to Port land by the Sacramento outfit, which would seem to put the kibosh on the Sacramento wail. As a matter of fact, the Portland gang believes that it could win the pennant and never lose a ball game after Decoration day, if it had to play Sacramento all season. We were talking to Jack Roche, the old Portland catcher, at St. Marys col lege last Wednesday and ' Jaek offers the statement that Del Howard will have a better ball club this year than he has . had since his tenure at tfie transbay metropolis. Jack himself is in good condition and the Oakland fans are banking on him developing into one of the best first Backers in the circuit. Roche can hit and they say he is not so clumsy on his feet - as some of the critics imagine. Tha Portland ball club is closer to the center ef things this year than eves be fore, thanks to the invitation of the Crockett Boosters. 'Every time the club makes a trip it runs into some Coast league ball players, and the line orr the strength of the clubs fs better than, be fore. Within a line of, say,-75 miles, we have four clubs "at work Salt Lake at Pittsburg, Pertland at Crockett.. Oak land at home and San Francisco at Santa Clara. The easy jumps are : ap preciated by the scribes who make the turn of the camps. - Heretofore only The Journal has covered all of he bay district camps, but most of the boys are making the rounds this spring. League Heelings Are Planned Albany, March 24. - S. M. Garland, chairman of the Linn county committee of the League to Enforce Peace, is ar ranging for. a series of meetings in this county at which prominent speakers will emphasize the desirability of the league.
