HIT FOR HOME UVX
The first ball sent up to the rubber by Dick Durning was hit into the left
bleachers for a home run by Shick, and to show that he did not want Frank
Juneyto think he was showing any partiality, the Seal outfielder walloped
a slow ball a few feet from the top of the left field sun god's roost. In

more things that win ball games.
In the second Inning, Connolly doubled

Coveleskie is a big. strong, 6-footer
with a lot of speed when he wants to
use it and a good curve ball, though he
is also an exponent of the spitter, which
is to be taboo after this year.

GREAT preparations are being made
for the opening games of the Inter
City league Sunday, when the four
Portland teams who hold berths in this
circuit journey to Camas, Hillsboro, As
toria and Sherwood to open hostilities.
Parades, band concerts, speeches and
presentation of gifts will precede the
games, each city preparing a special
dish for the edification of the thousands,
of fans who are expected to take in the
big affair of the semi-pro season.
Bill Heales and his band of Kirk
patricks " go . to Hillsboro, Manager
Thomas and his Cendors to Sherwood.
Bradley and his Portland Iron Works
team to Camas and Simonsen and the
Multnomah Guard team to Astoria.
Manager Sexton of the Hillsboro
American Legion team was in Portland
Monday with the announcement that the
citizens of that city were lavishly pre
paring for the big Sunday fracas. The
mayor Is scheduled to shove over the
first ball, the only hitch in the arrange
ments being the selection of his battery
mate. It seems that everyone in Hills

hence he has been reluctant to make a

Stxton has lined up a most formidable
ball club this year. His pitching staff
is unique in that every man is a port
sider and he has three that are consid
ered as good as any playing, semi-pro
ball this season. The personnel of his
club is as follows: Fitch, first base;
Jansen, second base ; McCurdy, short-
stop; Bachelor, third base; Schiedel and j
Rolinson, catchers ; Fitch Gray and an-
other new man, pitchers ; Irwin, Des
singer, outfielders.
Heales' lineup will be drawn from the
following : Boland, Beaver and Pollock,
pitchers; Boland and Blanchard, catch
ers; Doty, first base; Yett, shortstop;
Pritchard, second base ; Knipple, third
base ; Nelson, Lind, Bell, outfield. This
team defeated the strong Hesse-Martin
aggregation last Sunday and should pro
vide the legion lads with an awful
tussle.
All umpires who are to officiate in the
Portland Baseball association games
this season are instructed to gather at
headquarters, 232 Chamber of Commerce
building in the clubrooms of the Mult
nomah Guard for a conflab Thursday
night at 7 :30 o'clock.
The regular meeting of the Portland
Baseball association will be held Thurs
day night at 7 :30. Every manager must
be present, as matters incidental to the
opening of the season which require im
mediate action will come up. At this
meeting the full schedule of games is to
be presented.
All out-of-town teams desiring games
with Portland aggregations should get
in touch with Si Simonsen, secretary of
the P. B. A., at once, as all Portland
teams playing out of Portland this year
will book through the association. Two
teams from each classification will be
sent out each Sunday and all teams will
probably travel on holidays. Sunday
the Peninsula Greys go to Woodburn.
One more out-of-town date is yet to be
filled.
"Shine Ball"
PITCHERS
Are Shining
NEW YORK. April 28. (U. P.)
"Shine ball" pitchers are still shin
ing without their shiners.
When the major leagues put the ban
on freak deliveries, three old addicts of
the doctored ball Hod Eller, Eddie
Cicotte and Al Sothoron were given
tickets to the discard pile.
"They'll never get by without the
freak stuff. They won't last an inning
on regular pitching," some Solomons
predicted.
But they're going as good as they ever
did.
Eller made his start in the eighth
inning of a game with the Cubs leading
the Reds, 6 to 5. He held them hitless
and runless. The Reds won out, 11 to
6.
John Heydler, president of the Na
tional league, saw him beat the Cubs.
5 Jto 3, in his second start. He allowed
eight hits, didn't issue a pass and struck
out one.
Cicotte has pitched 18 innings and
allowed one run against the heavy hit
ting Tigers. He shut 'em out, 4 to 0,
in the first game, and won the second,
7 to 1. He allowed five hits and passed
one In the first game, and in the second
was found for a quintet of bingles, but
he struck out six, including the great
Cobb twice.
Sothoron got away badly in his first
start, losing to the Indians, 5 to 0, but
he came back against them and won,
4 to 1. An even break against Cleve
land is a feather in the cap.
Despite frequent assertions to the con
trary, batters claimed the trio of freak
experts were getting a hop on the ball
by rubbing a shiny spot on the pellet.
Cicotte and Eller did rub the bail on
t heir trousers before each delivery, but
they insisted it was just to worry the
batters.
