arnittee of three, appointed to make the

flohomish.'
II Thornton's pitching was gilt-edged,
sf,pap Cobb's backstopping was not
Mi behind. He did the receiving to per-
brtiou. The story Of his dead arm" had
reached even to Portland. and the first two
ra.tnomah runners who reached first
s,zrted out without delay TO add stolen
bases to their record. Much TO their sur
prsse they both found Small waiting for
them with the ball, which the ''dead arm"
had handed down ahead of them.
Young Atkinson made his debut at third
base. and Notwithstanding the fact that he
fu.nh.ed the Eirst two grounders i'm his over
anxiety, be handled himself we'll. At the
bat he rot ID . single. Teddy Gamble con-
fributed the most timely hit of the game,
single shich sent two men across the
plate. Randall was credited with triple,
which drove In run and started the scor-
ing in the fourth inning.
The Portland boys put up a brave fight
for The game, and under more favorable
eiyumstances would have made much
closer finish. They were weakened yester-
dsy BIZ the absence of three of their regu-
lar team, the second and third hasemen
md the left fielder, who were not able TO
mske the trip. In addition 10 this they

M was nearly fifteen hours getting
trough to Seattle, and they did not retire
snsil o'clock this morning. On account
d the loss OF their outfits, the team pre-
~nied strange appearance when they
marched on the field arrayed in uniforms
patched up out of three suits which were
brought with them and some unifoIms
oahsd them by the local Y. NJ c. A.
isam. Ainsley used borrowed mask and
gloves, while the team all played in tennis
shoes bought after reaching Seattle.
Joe Smith showed that he had not for
gotten how 10 pitch. although he was
somewhat Wild. especially toward the
close ofth game. With good support BY
his inteld be would have held down the
score 10 smaller figures. As il was he was
bit safely bat four times. but he sent seven
men TO bases on balls and hit another.
Ainsiey gave him fine support behind the
paI, and threw 10 second base splendidly.
