This announcement waa mad Saturday land since Tuesday night, arranging the inga of Judge W. W. McCredie and secured an option a week ago. The price paid tor the franchise, It m Kleppers intention to Incorporate the club and interest at least 40 Port land business men, as he did in Seattle. A number of prominent Portlanders have already agreed to take stock la the corporation. Klepper wiQ ; remain - in Portland this week and hopes to have the Portland Baseball club. Incorporated. ; in existence by the end of the , week. He plana to. reestablish his residence here.- . : ' v ." . - , James R " Brewster of ' Seattle, who owns one of the biggest chains of cigar tores on the Pacific ooeat. will be the only man outside of Portland bavins an Interest in the club. ' 'A PORTLAXD TJITDEUTAaTS'O . "It Is my plan." declared Klepper. "to make the corporation a Portland one and to interest every possible business man. - I have .assurances from many to take stock in the club and expect to - close the deal up completely during - this coming week. ; . ,' . "I propose to secure a first-class man . ag-er tor the club. V do not know Just yet whether he will be a playing man ager or a bench leader. X have a leader in view, but am not at liberty to mention his name as yet. "I will make the announcement as soon as possible, as I will want hie help in rebuilding bis club. I may have , a manager signed before the annual meeting of the Coast league to be held In Los Angeles November 10 and will - no doubt hold several conferences with him before coins to Buffalo, N. Y to , , attend the annual convention of the - National Association of Minor Baseball .Leagues. . . . - . "It is my intention to secure at least eight or probably 10 new players for the club; They will include two hard , hitting outfielders, two good inflelders, three good pitchers and a high-class : first string catcher. SEW FLA.TEB8 ASSURED ! "None ' Of the players f ill be dis 1 posed of until .the new manager is chosen. There are several big league clubs. bidding for Pitchers Johnson and Fillette, but I am not going to let them . so until X am assured as to what play ers 1 will get in return. The Washing . ton and Detroit clubs are both bidding for these pitchers. -1 will lose Gran tham, shortstop, to the Detroit dub, as the Tigers have title to him. ' 'The Question Of a ' playing- field for next season has not been definitely de cided, i I have talked with Mr. Griffith about the , present park, but we have reached no agreement. There are sev eral other sites, available for a ground, but should it come to pass that , the team will remain on the Vaughn -street ground. It is my intention to remodel the entrance, make several changes in the seating- arrangements and paint the entire grandstand." PUBLIC UTERXST IHYlTED Returning to the matter of incorpo rat ine the club. Klepper said : "I nave taken a bis block of the stock myself. but I want to interest the business men of Portland in the club. Seattle re ceived great publicity benefits from the teams I assembled in Seattle, and with the right kind of assistance) from Fort- land business men, there is no reason why the plan will not work here. Port' land is a good baseball town and will support a first division club. - Take these figures for comparison: Seattle last year played to nearly a half million people, because all clvlo organisations were behind the club, while in Portland the attendance here " was between .125,000 and 150,000 people.' M'CBEDIES X.02TO IX COKTBOI The sale of the Portland club marks the passing of the McCredies, who for years had Portlaxtd In the front rank tn the coast league, but who, of late have lost much of their following in Portland because of the poor showing of the team. The McCredies acquired the control of the Portland club at the close of the 1904 season from a number of Portland busi ness men, including Max Fleischntr and Frank Spencer. . After struggling along- with a second division team la IS OS, the McCredies i bloomed forth with a pennant winner in DOS that established a winning per- ' centage that still stands. Included in the list of players that, season were alike Mitchell, B1U Sweeny. Jimmy McHale, Babe Dsnsig, Larry McLean, Pat Don ahue, Bill Eaelck and Benny Henderson. ' A number of these players starred in the major leagues in seasons that fol lowed. -. ' - Disposal of his stars in 190S resulted In McCredie. finishing third and fourth respectively in the seasons of 1907 and 1908. In 1909 he developed a club that was runner-up to Saa Francisco, win ners of the pennant. The (following two 1 years Portland won the pennant and in 1911 finished fourth. In Mil and. 1914 Portland again won the pennant. Ever ' sinos 1914 the Beavers have been a see- ond division olub. ..'.-'' V" A JTOTABLB BECOBD The departure of '.Walter MoCredie, ' wh6 will undoubtedly remain In the Pa cific Coast league, probably as manager .; of either the Oakland or Salt Lake clubs, ends one of the most successful ; careers any manager has' ever enjoyed in one city in the history of baseball. - .McCredie has been In the Pacific ,- Coast league continuously as a manager : - since 1905.

Klepper. the new owner of the Beavers, is a live wire, a man who delights in having a winner In baseball and it was none other than he Who Was responsible for the Seattle club being a contender in the last two pennant races of. the Pacific Coast league.

His efforts were responsible for a mar velous growth in baseball interest in Se attle, prior to Seattle's entrance into the Coast league, the yearly attendance at baseball in Seattle was not 60.000. while during the 1921 season the Indians played to nearly a halt million people. In 1920 Seattle outdrew any minor league team in the country. t Klepper has always been interested In baseball. Id his school days he was manager of a small town team in Mis souri and 21 years ago bo owned the La Grande team in Eastern Oregon, He never dropped his interest in baseball. In the fall of 1S18 he perfected the or ganisation of the Seattle baseball dob, securing some 40 backers. .He was secretary-treasurer of the club during 19lj and president during the last two years.

The tact that uranam pians to spena nis tuns witn tne business end of. the team : means that unless a field manager Is secured a huge chunk of the season's profits will ' go to a bench manager. OWffEBJ BEfEEJrCB . Seattle was successful with a playing manager, - Bill Kenworthy having the Indians in the fight until the Beavers took a fall out of them during the last month of the season. Kenworthy has been offered the management of the In dians again next season. "Red" Ktllefer, manager of the . Ixn Angeles dub,- champions of the league, Was kept out of the lineup during a Dart of the season by injuries; otherwise he would have probably held forth in one position or another all year. one of the main reasons for the seek ing of playing managers by clubs is the elimination, of the extra expense of having a bench manager, the high cost Of transportation causing the club own ers to do all the clipping they can on the overhead expense. . Reports from the South state that Chief Bender is listed as a possibility for the position as manager of the Seals, Bender recently resigned as man ager of the New . Haven club of the Eastern league. ? PIKELLX TO OO tTPt . Does the. release of Don Brown, who played third base for Salt Lake last season, to the Oakland club by the Chicago Cubs mean that "Babe" Pin elU is going to be sold to the majors next spring T The St. Louis Cardinals want the former. Beaver player and it would not be surprising if the Oakland club sold or traded him before the open ing of the major league season. , . Brown, along with BUI Marriott a sec- ond seeker, were turned over to Oak land as part payment tor "Hack" Mil ler. The loss of Gutsto and Miller and the 'deal for Plnelll will mean that Del! Howard will have to do a lot of hustling to find players to fill their places. i CATEITET DEAL TBTSVVXQ A deal that will send Jimmy Caveney, the star shortstop of the San Francisco club, to the major leagues Is expected to be closed this Week. . Sob Connery, scout of the. New York i Americans, is expected in San Francisco to dicker tor the services of Caveney, .while Tyrus Cobb, who. is managing the San Fran cisco team in the Mid-winter league, is aso bidding for Caveney, reports irom san. r rancisoo oeciare that one of the players, the Yankees will offer for Caveney Is Mike MoNally, who was more or less of a star la the world's series games.... Indications are, however, that Caveney will join the Detroit club, which has been 'the stand-by of the Seals for a number of years. " . joe Knele, Washington scout. , is In San Francisco waiting for a chance to put la a bid for Caveney. Baseball - critics believe that Hal Rhyne. who was recalled from the Western league by the seals, will be given a berth on the left side of the Bay City , infield in 1923. Kamm was worked out at shortstop during the closinsr weeks of the season and it may be that Kamm will play short and Rhyne third, unless the Seals land something in the deal for Caveney, Wilhelm Has Low' Score, But Quits nnHlRTY-TWO golfers teed oft Satur L day afternoon m the dualifying round ef the annual men's champion' ship tournament of the Wavefley Coun try club.- Rudolph wiineim " turnea in the low score with a 7J, but will not play in the championship flight .
