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.

A CASE OE 100
MANY “BILLS”
"Bill" Goggin'ecat— named ‘Bill’’—in
a jealous memtrer of the cat species if
nothing else
During the absence of
Mr. Goggins, Sunday, tbe cat gained
admittance to the show window, in
which was displayed a line of shoes
carried by the firm of which Mr. Gog
gins is manager, and when the said cat
had finished the ,'ay’s work there was
not a stand but what was knock- d down,
leaving shoes in a topsy turvy manner
and giving the show window a dilapida
ted appearance.
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."

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.

Neither team has met defeat this sea

Manager John

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

some fast players.
Manager Al. Boland is still strength

He was
formerly manager of the Piedmont

He is also

After Sunday's game, Maxmeyer said :
