With one game left today befoie the year's lntersectlor.nl play In the major' leaguee ends, the last sast west aeries In the big circuits ha merely proved what the earlier ones Indicated. The eastern clubs of the American league ind the' western teams or the National, which have outshone their rivals trom the other sections all yesx. pound up with the most thorough triumph yet. .

It was their 109th vlotory of the season, one more than the great A's of 1929 could win all season. They still have five games left and the pos sibility of tying the American league record of 110 victories Washington snatohed the oppor tunity offered by an open date In the New York schedule and took un disputed possession of second place In the standing with a 7 to 3 victory over the Chicago Whit flox. Boston's great, spurt was checked In the last Inning of a battls with 8t, Louis, but the Bed Sox managed to hold onto fifth place. Leading, 2-0 going into the ninth, Milton Oastoa weakened, the Sox committed two er rors and Wiley Moore, who was tossed Into the breach, oould not get the aids out until five runs had crossed the plate to give the Browne a 5 to 2 victory.

GAB BYSTREET KCEo-f the Cards I i I " ?t $ m $ ' 1 ' ( GABBV ' V fr'S' ' A 4 I STREET 1 ; -'1 , t J (UK Branch Rickey, one of the smartest executives In baseball, Is the man credited with seeing big league managerial possibilities In Gabby Street. The vice president of the cardinals hired street, a ,war com panion, as a coach In 1B28. The managership followed. By ALAN OOULD. (Associated Press Sport Editor) No. 8 Rickey, the Patron. The rise of Oabby Street from obscurity to major league managerial helghta with the St. Louis Cardinals la linked up at a number of vital stages with the foresight of Branch Rickey. In many respects Rickey Is the most remarkable executive figure In baseball. He Is aggressive, a rigid disciplinarian, a fluent speaker and an engaging personality; He once piloted the St. Louis Browns. He was for several yeare bench manager of the Cardinals, without conspicuous success, before turning his talent to the business office and the development of the far-flung Cardinal -system. Rickey, with amaslng energy, does an extraordinary amount of work He Is the overseer of the chain farms keeping a continual check of their activities. Juggling Or transferring players for the best Interest of all concerned, always on the lookout for the most promising talent for the headquarters organization. During the world war, Rickey rose to the rank of major In the chemi cal warfare service of the A.E.P. Christy Mathewson and Ty Cobb were captains in this branch. Oabby Street was a sergeant In the combat division. It was not strange If these . four sometimes talked baseball. Rickey encouraged Street ' to seek a career as manager, but neither had the least thought at the time that they would hook up together. 10 years later, with a championship combination. E E (By the Associated Presi.) A doubleheader vlotory over Seattle last night kept Oakland In the run ning a contender for winner of the Coast league" second half play.

The Ducks eoored three run in the second inning and fol lowed these up with two more in the next inning. Loe Angeles handed the Mission Reds a 10-6 trimming yesterday after noon.

After the war,' Street left Nash ville and' began- his managerial ca reer with the Suffolk club of the Virginia league.- He went from there to Joplln and Muskogee in the west ern Association, having forgotten about Rickey until the Cardinal executive again crossed hla- path They talked business as well aa about their war days in rTance The upshot was that Street stayed on Rickey's little memorandum book and three years later . was' offered the ;Job .as' Cardinal coach. It was-the climax of a 17-year battle through the bushee and the trenches for Oabby. Having - Justi fied Rickey's confidence. Street wss No. 1 on the list when It wss de cided to replace Bill McKechnie after the 1929 season. ' Rickey Is the man-behlnd-the-gun, so far as street Is concerned, coun selling the old backstop -in player matters and attending to necessary disciplinary measures. On the field, however. Oabby Is the boss. He has apparently fitted more satisfactorily Into the Cardi nal scheme -of operations than any of his many predecessors under the Breadon-Rlckey . regime.'- ,: He has already broken all records In this organization by holding the managerial post for two winning years and obtaining a contract lor a third.- Until the old' sergeant took hold, Hornsby, O'Farrell, McKechnie and Southworth oame and went. In -rapid succession. No wonder the boys lauuhed when Street took charge. But the old sergeant has the .last smile..,'.'. ; Tomorrow The Incomparable Cobb With Rod and Gun James R. McCool, In the Oregonlan, brings to the attention of sportsmen the statement of R. P. Cowglll, en gineer of the state game commission, that not one of the numeroua nyd.ro- electiio power plants In Oregon- haa provided any protection for trout and salmon that have to pass these plants going and coming to the sea. Oregon sportsmen, he points out, have not realleed the extent of de structions caused by the turbines of these electricity generators. , No screen with mesh small enough to prevent the smallest fishes enter ing would be practicable at these places, as such a screen would be clogged up by debris that floats down the streams on which power projects are located. ,..--,.. Most of the companies that deal In electricity were given rlghta that per mit them to operate their plants without any provision for the pro tection of fish. "Pot instance, It Is my information that the Portland Sleotrto company has title to every foot of water that rolls over the falls at Oregon City. and might, if it saw fit. build canal around the city of Portland and destroy our port. That seems to be a rather broad statement, but I'm told that It U not anv broadn: than the water rights granted the company by the public In the days when people gave no thought to the future of fishing. , The electric flah stop is recom mended as the only solution for the bad situation. This, tt la claimed, will divert fish from entrances o power turbines by submitting them to s'Uht shocks. , These stops were tried tn Rogue river and, found unsatisfactory, local sportsmen, maintain. Further ex periments were dtacontinued when protest were TOlced because o the large number of fish killed. i Hugh Mitchell, culturlst of the T TALENT NEEDED SAYSJCHISSLER Loss of Buerke and Hughes Causes Possible 'Weak Spots in State Squad Biancone Slated Quarter By Frank G. Gorrte (Associated Press Sports Writer) CORVALLIS. Ore., Sept. 23. (AP) Discovered! Two places where the Oregon State college football team might be "weak" this season. . Alter diagnosing the Beaver' eleven from every angle It has been found that Paul Schlasler, dean of northern coaches of the. Pacific coast ' confer ence, lacks a -. class "A" passer and punter. ... Graduation last summer took Its toll In Ralph Buerke, i quarterback, one of the smoothest forward passing lads in- the conference and "Hono lulu" Hughes, big Hawaiian halfback and "Chief" Thompson, an Indian guard, w.ho handled . the kicking chorea. Biancone Slated The brunt of these two Jobs will likely be placed on the shoulders of a young . triple-threat sophomore, John Biancone. The boy did most of the passing and punting for the freshman team last year and Schlas ler figures on him to handle Buerke's old Job. Keith Davis, a lstterman end with powerful toe, may. be called out of the line to do a share of the kicking.-. - But outside . of these two depart menta, Schlasler appears to be better fortified In the eleven positions than any other coach in the northern di vision of the conference. He ' has lettermen for all except three places. Hammer, center, Ber- gerson and Cox; guards; Kent and Miller, tackles; Moe, right half, and Little, fullback, are set to hold reg ular jobs. Gaps At Ends The loss of BUI McKalln. Andv Mc. Qllvray and Harold Lovejoy. left two big gaps at the ends, and at this writing it looks like toe Deavers will have a Davis on each wing. Keith Davis, letterman. Is slated to get McKallp's place at Tight end and Everett Davis, a transfer from St. Paul, Neb., Is being groomed for the other hole. They are not related. Harold Joslln, sensational freshman laat year. Is a good bet to be run ning mate to Hal Moe. at the half back posts. Frank Little, a 200- pound fullback, has returned-to ram opposing lines. After their first two conference games the Beavers either will be sit ting on top of the world or trailing along in the basement. . Oregon State meets southern California at Los Angeles October 3 and Stanford at Palo Alto 14 days later. Victories over these two favorites in the con ference would find only Washington State, Montana and Oregon between the Beavers and the title. ...
