* ; LOCAL SPORTING GOSSIP COMERS HIN Lents A. & W. Team Wins From Boland’s Giants— Score 3 to 2. Owing to tho iriroasant rain Saturday night anil Sunday morning tho teams that wore to oppose tho two Lents clubs did not put in an ap|>oarance, and a game was arranged lietween the A. & W. club and the Giants. It was in reality a game between the ''comers'* and the “has-lioens," and tho former nosed out a 3 to 2 victory, The young* alcra played a good uphill game from the third to the seventh, when they sent two runners around the circut. making the score 3 to 2. The Giants scored one in the third and one in the fifth. The game was closely played at times by both teams, but in general it was a good contest and hard fought from aturt to finish and tho A & W. boys won by superior fielding. The work of troth batteries was su- pberb. "Lefty" Maxmeyer formerly with Nick William’s squad twirled for the Giants snd Mullen was at the re ceiving etui. "Maxey" did not extend himself but little until the close of the game, and was then handicapped by the wet grounds. He twirled league ball, all the runs scored ireing unearned. The work of young Clark, who twirl ed for the A * W Loya, and Boland, his battery partner, must not be over looked aiui was of big league style Clark allowed but seven big les, Blat tered through as many innings, and should have been credited with a shut out game The work of thia lad was a marvel to the "old timers" of the op posing team, and after the Hist two innings they realised that they were not playing with babies. The young ster whiffed seven batters, while Max meyer only secured eight strikeouts The Giants appeared with many changes and were strengthened, but at that they were outclnssed in fielding by the junior team, and did not display the ginger necessary to fast playing. The rivalry was intense but the game was clean throughout aiul gave the fans a good run for their money. The lineup: Giants Maxmayer Mullen A. Boland Gulliford Millsap.......... Kellar .........

Prond of hie work, threat ambled back and forth, and gazed at passers by with a countenance that gleamed satisfaction. Heretofore the cal has held full sway, but recently a pup was made a member of the firm, and it is said that because Goggins allowed the dog to accompany him on a fishing trip Sunday that the cat, as a result of hie jealousy, took re venge and raided the window. At any rate the window was a sight to behold, anil how the cat gained admittance no one knows It is a case of too many ''Bills.’* The pup is also called “Bill." Supplanting Mr. Howells.

MAXMtYER IS MAXMEYER WILL IMINE INJUSIIGE STICK TO GAME Tbe Inuits informant, who gave the tlregoiiiau the "dope” of Hunday’s ball game ill Lents, which stated that “Dick ’ Maxmeyer, was bumbled and hammered for 10 sale bits, has ’’bats in hie Iwllfry’’ or else has but little con ception of what constitutes a safe hit. As a matter of fact, Maxmeyer only al lowed five safe blnglra, and t«o of these were garnered alter utirxcusable errors were made try his support, und after the op|sieiug side should have been retired. Maxmeyer never extended himself until the last two innings ol the game, when he realised it was up hr him to strike out every batter or lose the game, Tbe truth is: Maxmeyer, had Io- lieen accorded anything like support, would have beeu credited witli a shut out game. Not an earned run was se cured from ills delivery. Justice should be accorded in all things, and there is no foundation what ever (or the atatment that “Maxey“ was unmercifully hammered. With any kind of support he would have won hands down, and anyone who posesses the slightest knowledge of tiaseball knows it. Tbe Oregonian’s report of the game was misleading in tiie extreme, and was actuated by one intoxicated with undue enthusiasm, or by one w ho desired to give Maxmeyer unjust ci ilicisin. GOOD GAMES FOR SUNDAY Richard Maxmeyer, tbe l-ents boy, a —. . . . . who was recently left in Portland by j Giantg and Ix?nty tea tu, is ii in tbe Portland’s Northwest team, game to slay und will not give up bare trail until he has been thoroughly tried out. It is not because Maxmeyer is unable to deliver the goods altogether that he was left behind. Many condi tions enter into the life of a young ball player wbotryslo make the home team, and “Maxey" has been no exception to A, & W Meet Fast Teams Next Sunday Afternoon, Two good games are in store for local fans next Sunday afternoon, when the Giants meet the team of the Port land Gas <k Coke Co., and the ion ta league team crosses bats with the Cres cents. The league game will lie ca Had first and promisee to lie a battle royal. Neither team has met defeat this sea son snd occupy tbe top position in the A. A W. league. Manager John son, of the locale, says he realizes that tbe Crescents will give his team a hard rub, but he is confident of victory, The game is one of decided importance, Both are leaders and have not met this season, and the result of tbe coming game is awarded with interest. Tbe game will be called at 1 :30 sharp. Immediately following this game tbe Giants wdl meet tbe team representing tbe Portland Gas A Coke Co. The op posing team is said to be composed of some fast players. Manager Al. Boland is still strength ening his club, and has secured the ser vices of Jas. Link, as catcher. He was formerly manager of the Piedmont Stars, and is a fast man. He is also negotiating for a good twirler, and for other players. Boland is determined to put out a winning team and wont stop until he does. the rule. It is said, and truly so, that be and Manager Williams bail some lit tle difference in the Houtb, but not of a serious nature. It is also said that Nick hail several twirlers on his staff, for whom good cash had been paid, and who will naturally be given a more thorough tryout than the local lad, wbo did not have the pull of a purchase price. After Sunday's game, Maxmeyer said : "I will continue to pitch ball until 1 either make good or am t-hown that I cannot, I have the dope, and have more speed than last year. With ex perience I will go with the best of them 1 expect to lie with one of the league teams before many weeks, and when I do 1 will prove to my Lenta and Port land friends that I can make good, and I will."
