Sutherland
On Hilltop
Stops Seals
By George Brt
CTJDS SUTHERLAND halted the
3 Seals Wednesday. Pitching his
first game in over a month, the ace
ef the Beaver hurling staff, made it
twov straight over the league leaders,
defeating them by -a score of 2 to 1.
Sutherland pitched a masterly game,
allowing but four scattered bingles.
only one of which was a clean smash.
The veteran had perfect control
throughout the entire game and walk
ed but two batsmen, Rhyne In the
seventh and Ellison in the ninth.
But for two bad plays in the sixth
Inning Sutherland would have blanked
the. leaders, and Incidentally If Dan
McGrew had given the Beavers the
benefit of a close one at the plate in
the fifth, the Beavers would have had
three tallies.
One thing about the umpiring this
week, the home club's not getting any
the best of the close ones. Reardon
AlA irlva (hem tn 11R TllPKflnV And
.w ft 1 -
McGrew was not much better in
Wednesday's tilt.
COTJBTXET HIT HABD
- Harry Courtney, who was turned
over to- the Seals by the White Sox,
faced the Beavers and was clicked
nmlfa hnrri hut prpftt srunnort tre-
nr. vented the Beavers from scoring more
t is runs.
Starring on the offensive lines was
. Mr. Samuel Hale. The Beavers put
over a "'marker in the first Inning on
-v' Wolfers walk, Brazlll's infield tap and
Sammy's double into right field. The
locals-held this advantage until the
i- sixth when two misplays coupled with
.ri-.-TsUe's -scratch hit gave the Seals the
. equaliser,
i-'l. Yelle opened the inning with a hit
to Sargent, who played in McCann's
'place; Courtney hit to Sargent, who
kicked the ball long enough to allow
both runners to reach the bases safely.
Kelly forced Courtney at- second and
on Braslll's high throw to Poole in an
'"f effort to complete a double play. Telle
- . jv scored. Valla forced Kelly at second
and Kamm whiffed.
Portland put over what proved the
winning run in the sixth, thanks to
the speed . of Hale, who walked and
stole second and tore around third
like a rabbit sliding into the plate
' ahead of O'Connell's return of Poole's
: sharp single to short right center.
Hale certainly showed a lot of speed
, - os the paths.
Frank Brazil! crashed out a triple
and a double, but was caught at the
. plate each time trying to score on ln-
' field taps- In the fifth, Charley High
was caught at the plate on a decision
that looked Very much like he had slid
under Yelle before he was called out.
The Beavers are certainly playing
: bang-up ball. Theyre out on the field
fighting all the time and if the rest of.
the hurling staff can duplicate the
work' of Leverens and Sutherland the
Seals are likely to take a tumble from
the top of the percentage column. The
fans, and a goodly number of them,
are rooting against the Seals.
SUBS SWAtLOWS "CHEW"
A near tragedy occurred in the
; 1 eighth inning- when Sutherland swal
lowed a bit of his famous "chew"
;when he fielded Courtney's bunt. He
'had to take first aid treatment at the
bench and then finished the game.
A--Despite the two boots, the Beavers'
Infield played like a regular machine,
as did Pet Kilduff and Bert Ellison
of the Seals. - .

LESS than three weeks from the fin
ish of the season, the Tanks ex
panded their leadership over the
Browns Wednesday by snatching off
the second game of the double header
in Chicago while the Browns lost to
the Bed Sox la St. Louis. The Yankees
invasion of the West for a swing upon
which the pennant depends, began with
the loss of the first game to the White
Sox. Bed Faber held the champions
to five hits and beat them 7 to' 3. Hob
ertson pitched for the Sox in the second
game and Waite Hoyt did the work for
the Yankees. Hoyt won his game
6 to 3.
By some occult process Hip Collins,
the wildest pitcher in baseball, set the
Browns down 3 to 1 in St, Louis, al
though Urban Shocker allowed only
half as many, nits as Collins. The
Browns slumped to .600 in the percent
ages and the Yankees were steady at
.612 when the day ended.
The Tigers beat the Athletics in De
troit 6 to 5, and the .Senators defeated
the Indians in Cleveland 4 to I.
In the National league the Giants
beat the Cubs 8 to 3 at the Polo
grounds. The Pirates and Cardinals
each won double headers. The Pirates
gained slightly on the champions by
defeating the Braves 8 to 1 and 6 to 1
in Boston. The Beds lost to the Dodg
ers in Brooklyn 3 to 2 and slumped
into fourth place as the Cardinals
passed them by winning from the Phils
twice in Philadelphia, 13 to 4 and 11
to 1.

NEW TORK, Sept. 14. By the skin
of their teeth the grace of Lady
Luck and the prowess of the Bostons,
the Tanks were today holding their
precarious lead in the American league
race, the margin between the Tanks
and Browns being one and a half
games Just before todays -battle.
Wednesday was favorable for the
Tanks and the Giants. Their astral
bodies were in the constellation Horne
min. The Tanks started by losing the
first game to Chicago which was odor
ous and bad. Thy reversed things by
winning the second which did not help
them a bit but hold, the little step
brothers to the Ta-iks, the Bostons, de
feated the Browni and that tore off
another half yard of the bunting that
Phil Ball is trying to buy at bargain
counter rates. '
PIPP GOES WELX
The Browns miss Staler. They will
miss their boom, ah, too. If they per
mit themselves to be beaten by Bos
ton. Had they won tney would have
had the edge on New Ifork on the very
start of the Yanks western tour. SC
Louis lives in suspense and solid heat
from day to day. The i anks can thank
their little Chicago success to Pipp.
They were talking very seriously of
letting him go last falL There Isn't
much on the Yankee team that hasn't
been talked "let go' except Ruth. Pipp
has been worth Ruth and a percentage
this season. It is well that he wasn't
permitted to depart. Without him the
Tanks would not be where they are
unless they had snxgged another Pipp.
The Giants won because the Cubs
showed their class. The class of the
Cubs is a great de,l like that of a bar
ber pole. It is red. white and blue. It
is a task to tell which of the three is
class but they are all different. None
of them will break bread in pennant
ville this year. The Cubs better begin
to lay up berries and squirrel food and
get ready to hibernate. They have
done well for a class aA team. They
have surprised eve.-ybooy. Maybe that
is their class.
ST. PAUL TO WIN
St. Paul will win the American as
sociation pennant and the Baltlmores
have lazily crawled into their own in
the b-ggest farce of a championship in
baseball history. Baltimore and St.
Paul will play a post season series if
Baltimore can still remember how to
play. St. Paul should win that series.
Everybody seems to be bitten with the
jackpot mania in baseball.
Hitting safely in i'J games, Sisler
would have been n even terms with
Ty Cobb in ooe day more if he had
played. -For that matter there is no
reason why he should not have the
mark if he does make it. Consecutive
games do not necessarily mean that
games in which a player is unable to
take part are to be a penalty against
him. It is the consecutive games in
which he plays that make the record.
KEE LEU'S KECOKD STANDS
Cobb's mark of 40 has been referred
to as the modern record. Modern,
fudge. It is no more - modern in the
general duration of time in baseball
than Willie Keelcr's record of 1897
when he hit afely in 49 games in suc
cession. If 1897 is to be considered an
cient history in baseball some of the
players who were active In 1890 will be
gin to wonder if they are not superan
nuated. A team-mate of Sister's, Kenneth
Williams, hit safely in 2S games in
succession this year and Daubert of the
Cincinnatia hit safely in 22 games in
the National league.

The New Tork Uiant are taken for granted mm

sidered almost imposcibi for then to lose the

By Heary L. Farrell
fnited Press Staff Correspondent
NO MATTER which team wins the
American league pennant, two of
the greatest first basemen in the busi
ness will work In the world's scries.
- It is taken for granted that the New
Tork Giants will carry the National
league colors into the -classic of the
diamond and that either the New Tork
Tanks or the St. Louis Browns .will
represent tho American league. ?
George Sisler, the perfect ball player,
and Brown star, is the greatest first
baseman .since the -days of Prlnce
Hal Chase. He Is one of the leading
all-around stars, excelling In fielding,
hatting and base ranning.'

George . Kelly, first baseman of the

Johnny Clinton
Has Good Record
In Ring Circles
TVTHEN Johnny Clinton, the New
V Tork battler, who meets Jimmy
Sacco in the main event of the Portland
boxing commission card Friday; night
in the Armory, boarded the train in
New Tork for the Pacific Northwest,
he had great expectations of f being
greeted by a horde of real Western
cowboys and Indians.
The thought of the trip so thrilled
Clinton that he hung his head out of
the window of the Pullman car all the
way from Chicago In hopes of iseeing
the cow-punchers and redskins. '
It all happened this way. Bobby
Michaels, when he returned to New
York, was a great publicity man for
the Northwest. He told a group of
battlers in a New York gym to take
a trip to this part of the country if
they ever got a chance.
"There are big cities out West." said
Micheals. "Real cowboys ride up and
down the streets on their horses and
Indians sell baskets on the street cor
ners."' Johnny never saw any cowboys, but
he did eee a few Indians selling bas
kets on the streets of Seattle.
Clinton is a clean-cut ciap and a
little different than the ordinary run
of boxers. He has been battling in
the ring for seven x$ars but has never
been west of Buffalo.
Last May he fought a 10 round no
decision contest with Benny Leonard,
lightweight champion, in Boston. Un
der the Massachusetts law, no-decision
bouts can not be staged, but the box
ing commission deferred this ruling to
allow the Bostonians to see Leonard
in action. This was his second meeting
with Leonard. He also fought a no
decision affair with Lew Tendler and
has beaten Eddie Fitzsimmons, Joe
Welling. Frankle Farren, Jimmy Sacco,
Sammy Good, Franke Conifrey, Mel
Coogan. He fought Lew Bogash four
times and despite a weight handicap
of 10 pounds won the quartet of
battles.
The fact that Clinton lost a close
decision to Travie Davis Indicates that
he's a mighty clever boxer.
The advance seat sale for this smoker
has been good and indications are that
the house will draw a big crowd.
Detroit Gets Eight
Hander From Texas
Cleveland, Sept, 14. (I. N. S.) Man

ately after the last game for the South

CALIFORNIA GIRL WINS
(By United News)
Philadelphia, Sept. 14. Miss Helen
Wills of California easily won her
third round match in the defense of
her title as national girt champion in
the girls" tournament Wednesday.
Her victim was Miss Corunna Ken
nedy of Philadelphia and the score
6-0. 6-1.
Both are good, long hitters. Since
mid-season, when he started .to do
the stick work that Babe Ruth is
supposed to do. Pipp has been the
most valuable man on the : Yankee
team and he has been playing better
than Kelly. I
On unassisted plays at first j Pipp- is
faster getting to the .bag than Kelly.
Pipp is perhaps the best first baseman

Columbia's Team
Looks Forward to

WITH six letter men on hand, pros
pects for four others showing up
and a score or more athletes already
working out, Maurice "Clipper" Smith,
coach of the Columbia university foot
ball team expects even a stronger com
bination than the one which repre
sented the Institution last fall. .
Smith has been in the East during
the summer vacation and returned to
Portland last Tuesday with a lot of
new Ideas along the coaching line. He
had his stars working out Tuesday and
from now on daily practices will be
held until the opening of the 1922 sea
son. Four games are on the Columbia
schedule at present and three more, at
least, will be lined up. The Oregon
and Oregon Aggie freshmen will be
met as will Everett high. Linfield col
lege and Albany college. Wes Schul
merich, the big captain, is showing
more stuff with each workout and he
is expected tp have his biggest year
this campaign. The six veterans who
have been issued stilts are: Captain
Schulmeriche "Big Joe" Doherty, Jack
Johnson. Ray Cudahy, Jerry Ransav
age and Van Orden while McElhaney,

Sept. 14. The winner of
Tendler-Pal " Moran
L" the Lew
knuckle discussion to be held at the
Velodrome Monday night . will meet
Champion Benny Xeonard shortly
thereafter. This waa learned today.
Tendler but recently showed what he
could do when; he considerably mussed
Leonard's teeth and rums all up. Pal
Moran Is no slouch, although Lefty Lew
appears to have the edge over the New
Orleans youth. However, Monday's
fracas 'finish. 1 makes it. certain that
Benny cannot j just loaf -along in ex
pectation of a mild battle with tlte
victor. - -

It is to laugh. Johnny KUbane's
announcement! that he has called off
the bout -with johnny Dundee at Jersey
City is another evidence of the erst
while fighter's ego. It's too bad Kil
bane cannot show some of the stuff
he used to show when he was climbing
the ladder. All Kiibane has to do to
pick up a nice bunch of real money
for the winter is to set himself right
in a perfectly manly fashion with the
New Tork Boxing commission and
that board will sanction a fight here
with Dundee.). The commission is to
be praised for its Immovable stand
against allowing Dundee to fight Kii
bane until the latter comes through
and sets himself right!- Suppose Kii
bane should finally lose the title that
has mildewed; so long on his long un
smitten brow. However, the Cleve
lander cannot1 take the crown into the
next world with him.
When the -writer- saw Jack Dempsey
going through training motions at a
local gym today he wondered what it
was all about. The Wills suggestion
seems to have petered out and as far
as can be seeh with binoculars there is
no .evidence jon the horizon, of the
shadow of any worthwhile heir pre
sumptive to the throne of Swat.
