Aberdeen Team Finally
Out of League

SEATTLE, Wash. Feb. 23.-The
Aberdeen baseball club suffered final
defeat in the superior court today when
Judge Mitchell Gillian handed down
decision refusing Aberdeen's request
for court order TO compel the North
west baseball league to reinstate the
club, which was dropped for business
reasons a s provided in the bylaws.
The court held that no evidence of
undue influence or fraud had been
produced and that the contention Of
the league had been sustained that
Aberdeen had been dropped because
Portland had Withdrawn from the
league and a city could not be found
to take Portland's place and complete
a six club league. Todays decision is
expected to end the northwest baseball
controversy.
Seattle. Tacoma, Vancouver and Spo-
kane constitute d four club league and
have already adopted a playing sched-
ule. Aberdeen has sold some players
and is negotiating for the disposal Of

MEETS REVERSES
Drops $4,000 in Two Days and
Them Decides to Lay Off
for While

Plunser Unsworth has temporarily
quit the game. The local bettor who
has sent a number OF handbookmen to
the wall had a couple of bad days and
he decided to lay off.
Unsworth is probably ahead ss5.OOO
on the season. After Bill King. the
local handbookman WEIGHED with sew
etal thousands of the plunger's money
Unsworth had a bad streak and he
dropped s15sO00 in two days. His luck
seemed to be going against him and
he decided to take rest.
Last Friday he bet $4,000 on Babe
Nicely, 10 to 1 shot which ran third
The long shot made a clever showing
being beaten nose and a head by
Phil Mohr and Descendant respectively
1t is reported that if he had cashed
this bet a number of handbookmen
would have been unable to pay him.
Unsworth has been following a sys-
tenn which has hetted him fortune
after practically starting on a shoe
string. Unsworth's recent losses were
the result of abandoning his system
After few days at the springs he
contemplates coming back and taking
another whirl at the game.

mas played every game this season and
has no competitors for the place.
At second the contest is still un-

batting and his marked Improvement

on the team.

His errorless work and his heavy hit

his place. his work a the bat also

The team which will face the car
dinal this year is lacking in the indi-
viduaI stars whom last seasons train

for the pitchers position can compare
with Indian Forker. who occupied
the slab in a II inning game last year.
Lewis is not showing the class no
displayed last year.
In fact, the slump has not confined
itself 10 the captain. For the last few
weeks the entire team has been work
ing under a hOodOo. running up 10 and
II errors in single game. Coach
Smith is confident however. that the
ragged playing is only temporary and
that six weeks more of vigorous prac-
tice will round the team into such
shape as TO. enable the men TO give
good account of themselves when they
meet the PaIo Alto lads in the big
series of the season.
