SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 4. To B11J
Byron, the gray-haired umpire,
goea the handsome set of concrete
boxing gloves. Bill and Lou Blue,
.first baseman of the Portland base
ball club, stared a torrid three-mln-
. lite battle In the ninth Inning of Sat
u'rday'a ball game, and before they
. finished the entire personnel of both
clubs was In the battle.
The Seals won the game by a sop re
of 1 to ff, and the run which would nave
. tied! the game up In the last frame
started the riot. Blus hammered a
three-bagger to dp right field and
, tried to score off Schaller's fielder's
choice to Hasbrook. The Seal first
. seeker made a wonderful piny Of the
bell, and threw Blue out-at , the plate.
BTXOX HITS FIIlaT " ' iA
"Whereupon Lou climbed to his ft.
; grabbed Byron by the armaand started
giving him the ruah act down third base
line., Bill got loose, and uncorked a
right cross that landed upon the .Blue
' noneu Lou hit Bill with a 'left book',
and : by that time every ball playef;
"copper" and umpire In the league waa
i mixed up In one grand shoving contest.
Blue wormed his way to the outskirts
of the crowd and waited until Bill got
to him. He reached over :tnd walloped
Byran In the eye. Young Cox, a hard
bollorl hombre, who does the right fielding-
for the Beavers, undertook to stop
the battle. That la, he dlin't want to
see Bill "badly Injured. So he grabbed
the umpire around the neck and dragged
' Mm half way around the park, while
, Bill's no6e proceeded to pick tip stray
hunks of pop bottles and rocks.
" SCHICK SCORES BUN
r Earlier In the game Byron came near
having another battle. He threw Sam
Agnew out of the game for something,
and Samuel acted right ornery toward
the "limp." He kicked large scoops of
' dirt n Byron's shins and bit his hands
to keep from taking a belt at Bill. Any-
; Way,: Sum sot out of the game without
Casualties happening.
The Seals made their only tally in
the fifth, when Maury Schick doubled
and stole third. Koehier. the heavy back
Stop,; endeavored to catch him off third
base and threw the ball into left field.
Schick came home.
Portland had several chances to score.
' but could not nick Couch at the right
moments. Eight Beavers were stranded
on the bases. '

To Look Into
Ball Scandal
Charges Generally Made Gamblers
vHad Han3 in Loss of Tues-
1 day's Game by Cubs.
Chicago, . Sept. 4. (U. P.) A
scandal which may result in a
wholesale Investigation of f alleged
gambling on baseball games was pre
cipitated here today with the' an
nouncement by William Veeck, pres
ident of the Chicago Cubs, that he
had been investigating charges that
Cub players had been "fixed" to lose
last Tuesday's game to Philadelphia.
That federal authorities might take up
the probe was Intimated tonight when it
was called to the attention of Veeck that
the participants in the alleged gambling
plot may have held communication by
mail or telegraph, which would open a
now avenue of investigation.
WARNED BY TELEGRAMS
Veeck, in a long statement, declared
just before Tuesday's game he received
several telegrams and two long distance
telephone calls from Detroit warning him
that gamblers were wagering heavily on
the Phillies to beat Chicago and urged
that he pitch Grover Alexander, star Cub
hurler.
Veeck declared he personally asked
Alexander, who had worked three days
before, to pitch, and offered him a $500
bonus to win. He did this, he said, be
cause ha knew Alexander was above sus
picion. Desplto the fact that Alexander
pitched one of hip best gme of the
year, he lost.
Two detectives Tuesday were placed at
advantageous positions in the stands to
watch for any suspicious moves on the
part of the players. Indicating a plan to
let the PMUies win. Veeck said investi
gation of the case has been on for sev
eral days, but so far no evidence against
any Cub player has been obtained.
Local baseball writers tonight consid
ered Veeck's request for a committee of
three to investigate the chargea The club
offered to defray any expenses incurred
In hiring necessary detectives and law
yers. In the meantime. Voeck said, he
would continue his Investigation.
A tinge of mysery was' added to the
charges tonight by the 'discovery that
the signers of the telegrams and the
men named in the long distance tele
phone conversations could not be located.
All except one telegram came from De
troit, but reports here said there was
no record of them In that city. ,
CXIANUE IU LI5E-TJP
According to the order, in which Man
ager Fred Mitchell uses his pitchers,
Claude Hendrlx was scheduled to work
Tuesday. Only one change was made in
Tuesday's regular line-up of Cub players.
Barber replaced Fred Merkle at f'rst.
No significance was attached to this,
however, because Barber Is a left-handed
hitter and the Thlllles were using Lee
Meadows, a right-hander.
Hendrlx did not go to Pittsburg with
the Cubs. He declared tonight be waa
Ignorant as to why he was not taken
along. He expressed the' belief that he
was kept here to pitch tomorrow's game
againit the Pirates at the local park.
"I know nothing about the alleged
gambling." he said. "This Is the first
I have heard of it. I do not believe a
word of it. Mitchell sent Alexander In
to pitch, thinking he could win."
Veeck, earlier in the season, brought
prominence to the Cubs when he dropped
Lee Ma gee from the roster. Later it
developed he had been suspected of being
involved in a betting proposition.

will be those called up sy the magnify

The Boston Americans should have the
greatest "regrettery" of them all but
there have been no signs that such Is
the case. Boston gave Speaker to Cleve

also gave Ruth to the New York Tanks

AMATEUR TEAMS
TO BATTLE FOR
LEAGUE TITLES
Double Header Scheduled for
Sunday Afternoon on the ;
Vaughn Street, Grounds, j
rDAT and tomorrow (Labor da!y)
mean much in the destiny of the
teams in the Class AA and Intercity
leagues of the Portland Baseball as
sociation. The championship of each section -is
at stake and the leaders ace battling
for all they are worth to secure Che
1920 titles. The main reason for this is
because a post-season series has been
planned by President Jack Routledge
and the winner is being billed to take
a trip to Seattle, Tacoma and Spokane
to battle the best In the Pacific North
west Two games are set for this afternoon"
on the Vaughn street grounds, the first
engagement being between the Crown
WUlamette Paper Mills and the Street
car Men's local, while the second affair
will feature the Pulpmakera and the
Hesse-Martin Iron Works. The Crown
Willamette representatives are .heading
the- Class AA league, and both the
Transfer Punchers and the Ironworkers
want the honor of humbling the Oregon
City lada
It is said that the visitors will come
well fortified with rooters and the
company's band is said to be in line
to make the Journey to the Twenty
fourth and Vaughn streets inclosure.
The first match is set for 1 o'clock,
with the Crown-Willamette-Hesse-Martin
battle taking place Immediately fol
lowing the first setto.
The race in the Intercity league of
the Portland Baseball association Is
centered around Honeyman Hardware
company of Portland and the Sherwood,
Or., outfit. The Sherwood contingent
lost to Hillsboro last Sunday, but the
match was thrown out on a protest.
This means that Sherwood still is in
the running for the title, but they will
have to win all the rest of the games
in order to wrest the top rung from the
hardware men. Today Honeyman meets
the Multnomah Guard.
Because of the fact that, the Crown-
Willamette matches are scheduled for
the Portland Pacific Coast league park,
more interest is being centered in that
locality, but the races in all the cir
cuits of the P. B. AT warrant a lot of
consideration.

Runs; Breaks All Records
in Organized Baseball.

-t-' two swlngrs of . his mighty bludgeon.
Babe Ruth today elevated himself to
the highest mark attained by a baseball
slugger, surpassing the home run record
made in any year -by a player in organ
ised baseball.
Ruth drove out bis forty-fifth home
run of the season off Pitcher Jones in
the third inning of the first game of

Sox. thereby equaling: the world's rec
ord established by Perry Werden ef the
Minneapolis club in 1895.- There was
no one on the paths at the time. The
drive was a mighty one, the ball land
ing high In the right field bleachers.
In the sixth Inning of the second game,
with Bush in the box for Boston, the
big Yankee again" drove the ball Into the
stands for the home run that broke the
record. The bases were unoccupied at
the ttmav.
EaraQr in the season Ruth established
a new big league record for home iuna
in one season when he exceeded his own
record figure of 29 made In 191S.
This waa "Babe Ruth" day at Fen

Champion Should Win in Real
Dempsey Fashion Inside of
Five Rounds; Miske Stale.
By Frank G. Menke
(Staff Oofreapondent Cntrcraa Sarrioa)
BENTON HARBOR. Mich.. Sept. 4.
Unless all signs point away.
Jack Dempsey should defeat Billy
Miske in their Labor day .tussle
and do It In the usual Dempsey fash
Ion. If the St. Paul youth goes more
than five rounds, he will surprise a
flock of talent around these parts.
Dempsey right now appears to be at
his best ; llske seems a little stale.
Dempsey has flashed speed beyond any
thing that Miske has shown and pre
ponderance of speed waa supposed to
be one of the factors in Mlske's favor,
Dempsey has shown boxing skill on
the few occasions when be has wanted
to that makes Miske look a bit slow
and awkward in comparison.
CHAMP HOLDING BACK

camps and what they do after the bell
sends them tearing away at each other
Is radically different But It is the con
clusion that Miake. during the condition
ing process, has exhibited about every
thing he has and Dempsey, In his usual
fashion, has been holding something
back the vital something that he will
not call upon until he comes face to face
with his formidable foeman.
Where Dempsey has It on Miske by a
vast margin is in walloping and the
man with the wallop ts going to win
that fisticuffing affair. The champion
during the past few days has shown that
he can punch with all the old-time bone
crushing power; that be can wallop
with amazing rapidity and unerring ac
curacy. Whenever he has elected to nit
the bullseye has been smashed. And
mind you. Dempsey has been doing that
with sparring partners like Harry Greb
and Marty Farrell men Infinitely faster
than Miske.
BIAKES SORRY SHOWING
He will have no need to drive quickly
to make a hit against Miske as he did
against Greb and Farrell. Bat the extra
punching speed is an asset because fct
will enable him to drive through into
every opening. And Miske, cagey
fighter though he is. splendid in de
fense. IS going to leave openings.
Mlsk, in contrast to Dempsey, has
shown nothing in punching that could
provoke cheers. Drilling through his
last boxing this afternoon and wishing
to show how he could hit if he so
wished, Miske made a rather sorry
showing. Time and again the slow
moving helnan a truck horse In com
parison with the thoroughbred Dempsey
stepped out of the way. And always
Miske, unlike Dempsey after a miss, was
In a dangerously awkward position.
LIKELY TO. SO AS OTHERS
Miske can't win the title on decision
because it's a non-decision affair. The
only way he can accomplish a champion
for himself Is to hammer Dempsey into
unconsciousness.
More than 70 men have tried the
trick and only Jim Flynn succeeded.
And that battle has a "fluky" flavor
attached to it
And all the while It must be remem
bered that Miske, a.s a knockout bitter.
Is miles removed from Jess Willard,
Gunboat mith, Carl Morris and the
countless others who have gone against
Dempsey, tried to aTop mm ana were
crushed and pounded into oblivion.
