The Oaks amassed. H hits off "Lefty" Schroeder and Joe Dailey for a total of six runs. The only .chances McCredie's men had to scorecatne in the first and last innings, but the punch was not there. Cy just flipped iand flipped and the Beavers hit. 'em right into somebddy's hands 'all through the contest. Fortune was With . the visitors at' the outset and was anything but fickle. Grover's double to center. Cooper's bunt down the third base line, and Uuisto's single through short gave the Oaks a marker in the first. . Rader had started over to - cover second, thinking Cooper was going to ateal, and Louie smashed one through Don's field. - OAKS CLIMB RTFATiri.T Murphy's bit to Klngdon, followed . Joy Bohne's sacrifice, Elliott's out, ' Falkenburg's walk and Lane's sin gle scored run No. 2 in the second, and Bohne's hit, Elliott's crack over second, Rader's muff of Klngdon's toss and a double steal chalked up anothr for the Oaks in the seventh. , There were two strikes on La.na when Bohne and Elliott started to steal and on the next baU Lane whiffed.

Dailey pitched the ninth and Murphy's hit to Wiaterzil. followed by Bohne's crash dawn the first base line, Elliott's double over Farmer's head and a wild pitch, . gave the Acorns three in the ninth. KADEB IS BALKED Portland had a great chane to score Hi , the first, when Rader reached second on Grover's high throw to first and took third on Wlatersil's sacrifice, but he was, . caught between third and home on Farmer's grounder to Guisto.

In the third inning he grabbed Bohne's grounder back of sec ond base and tossed him out at first and in the sixth he made a great play on Grover's grounder. He robbed Mitze of a hit in the eighth by grabbing a liner that deflected off Jones glove. Robert Bedford, who resigned as um pire ln the JPaciflc Coast league, is in Portland on business.

This thing at the Polo grounds l'riaay, when the New York Giants gain fell before the Cincinnati Reds in the" battle of the National league, was midsummer basezball madness. , .'

Benton also pitched T well, and all of Cincinnati's hits off him were lumped in the sixth Inning, when Fisher drew a walk, after one was .out, and Rath, Daubert, Groh and ' Rousch followed with singles. The hits of Rath and Groh were scratchy."': -1 . Neale scored on 'Jean Dubue in the ninth, when he walked, and then stole second,! third and home.
