Why Gould'rit Our Battling BeaVers
BEAVERS CRUSHED
BY LOS ANGELES, 4-1
BUT WALT PROTESTS
Paul Fittery Touched Bates as
. , Eighth, and Thereby
, T OS ANGELES, July, 31. --Portland lost the second game of
I . A the series to Los Angeles here Wednesday afternoon, but
"r Manager , Walter Henry MeCredie is not satisfied with the
way it ..was won and as a result he has sent in a protest. It all
happened in the eighth inning, when the Angels scored three runs
and broke the 1 to 1 tie. The final count was 4 to 1.
v In the questioned eighth, Bates walked and was safe at second
when Rader dropped Oldham's throw on Fabrique's grounder to
the pitcher. Fournier was safe at first on Blue's error, Bates scor
ing and Fabrique going to second. It was as a result of Bates'
scoring that the big Beaver boss let out jthe whoop n everything.
MeCredie claimed that Paul Fittery, who was coaching on. third,
stepped out of the box and touched Bates as he was rounding
third. This is absolutely against all rules and regulations of nice
ball players that, is, unless they
Anyway ,, the game
continued.
Crawford forcing Fabrique at third.
Fournier and Crawford double stole
and Toth registered when Boles'
poled out a Ion single to right. The
. Beavers had every chance in the
world to make a few runs In the
sixth canto when ,Don Rader opened
up , with a triple. "Red" Oldham,
who did the twirling for the Ducks,
fanned and Billy Speas was walked
purposely. Tex Wlstersll then sin
gled to right, scoring jRader. Speas
going to third, but the fleet-footed
Beaver outfielder died on the torrid
corner when both Blue and Farmer
failed to give htm an opportunity of
getting his foot off the bag.
-The Cherubs scored in the second
inning as a result of Blue's error
when he dropped a perfect throw
from Rader. Crawford was the
lucky man and he was the first one
: up. - Boles singled and Crawford
went to second. Both Kenworthy
and El lie filed out to Cox, the run
ners being held, but Niehoff came
through with a single and Wahoo
Sam nicked the home plate.;
"Curly" Brown . allowed but four
hits and his only dangerous point
was the. sixth canto which he
maneuvered with ' only but one
lonely marker. Rader's - triple was
the only extca base hit of the after
noon, Oldham holding the seven
against him to singles, . but they
were enough to do the damage.
- The result of the. game evened up
the series and Los Angeles managed
to gain on the league, leading Ver
non Tigers who lost to Oakland for
the second time.

Elaborate Program of Sports Be
ing Arranged in California on
Arrival of Big Fleet.
By Juntas-B. Wood
Special Wireless to The Journal and The Chicago
Daily News,
(Copyright. 1910, by Chicago Daily News Co.)
ABOARD the U. S. &! New York With
the Pacific Fleet off Cape Maysi,
Cuba. Tuesday evening, July 22. (De
layed.) The athletic officers on the
various dread naught 8 are preparing1 an
elaborate program of aquatic and. land
sports, including boa and swimming
races, baseball and boxing in anticipa
tion of the first halt in the cruise. The
old men were mustered out before the
voyage Degan and most of the athletic
teams lack men. Their hope is In the
recruits -who are belntr - nvn,aH tnr
the most likely candidates. Weight ma
chines have been installed on the after
decks to provide training facilities. A
change in the schedule spoiled some of
the pans for tryouts ashore.
While the fleet is at Los Angeles and
San Francisco the athletes will be busy
in training and in carrying out a series
of contests between ; the various ships
before the New York leaves for a cruise,
to Hawaii. Among the candidates for
the 12-oared crew on this ship .is En
sign mgram, stroke oar of this year's
naval academy crew, which was a strong
one. Ensfgm Blakeslee, captain of the
Annapolis baseball team. and.. Ensign
Hibbs, captain of the academy track
team, are also on this shin. Naval ath
letic rules are different from those in
the army 'and they prohibit more than
one officer from playing on any cf the
teams. It Is possible that the Pacific
fleet athletic committee will modify the
rules, permitting ; an unlimited number
of officers to play on the teams, and es
pecially the-baseball nines. - '
, The change in the" sailing' schedule
advances the arrival at Sari Diego and
Los Angeles two days and at San Fran
cisco five days. The time at Los Angeles
has been reduced from a week to four
days and that at San Francisco has been
increased by four days. -

GLEASON
BELIEVES
HE'LL WIN
White Sox Manager Says His
Team Is Confident of Taking
League Championship.
'By Jaek Yeloek
NEW YORK. July 81. (I.; N. S.)
"Kid" Gleason, peppery little man
ager of the White Sox, believes they: are
going, to. win the-American league pen
nant. He said today :
"1 believe we'll wla the pennant sure."
said Gleason. ,
"We're out ;in front, holding Just a
comfortable lead and the boys are con
fident. I'm not saying we won't have
a hard fight on our hands, but I don't
think we can be stopped now if we get
our share of the breaks. , f
"The- Sox fight tooth and nail for
every game. They're never beaten tin
til the last man is out. I believe this
is indicated by a good number of games
we've lost by one run.
"We've been getting" some fine pitch
ing this season and it has been ' a big
factor, but the hustling spirit of the
club as a whole is what's keeping us
up there.
"Yes, Williams is sure going great
guns. He is at the top of his form.
Cicotte and Faber and the rest of our
pitchers are carrying their share, Cicotte
in particular. -"We
haven't our best serngth right
now ; can't have it with cripples on the
club. Felsch, Schalk and Weaver are
all bothered with Charleyhorses, but the
latter two are playing in spite of them.
They'll all be right again before long,
I hope." -,
Gleason said there was no way to ac
count for the Improved hitting of the
sox. who are leading . their league in
club batting..
"The boys are simply stepping up
there and mauling the ball against' all
kinds of pitching," he said. "They are
full of confidence and that goes a long
way."
