=" OSTILITIES were resumed yester-
- day in the Coast league pennant
IA chase with Vernon and Sacra-
mento idle These teams will get into
the fray this afternoon at Chutes park,
and. according to dope, Sacramento is
due for a walloping. The Senators look
like about the best piece of pie that the
Cutups have chosen in long time, and
with Carson regularly ordained as the
Villagers star slabman, Hap Hogan's
outfit should get a running start with
out any difficulty whatever Vernon is
not playing a helluva game just now,
but Sacramento is probably the hor-
rible example of the Coast league, and
If the outfit should happen (that is the
word, too) to win game during the
seVen-game series, Hogan should be
fined going and coming. With the long
lay off, Hensling, Willett, Schafer and
Hit should about be back In condition,
and with Carson taking his regular
turn against the cellar champions 1t
looks like the fans should have a big
week of it watching the Cutups win.
They are not so far out of the running
that they cannot get back on top this
week. and now that all their troubles
are settled it is not asking 90 much of
them to win about five in a row, any
way Graham stood out manfully for
Portland and helped the Villagers to
drop down the toboggan slide at fast
rate. but he has been rendered hors de
combat by the National commission in
a series of bouts more strenuous than
ANYTHING Gotch ever tackled, and he
will not interfere any more. With Car
son, Hit, Schafer,. Hensling, Willett,
Breckenridge and Stovall fit and ready
tn do their best and the Vernon bat
ters just getting back on to their bat
ting stride, it certainly does look
roseate for the outfit from now on.
There is not a better pitching staff in
the league, with the possible exception
of the Frisco outfit. since the addition
of Browning and Sutor, and Vernon
should get back into the game with
both feet. Let every fan turn out and
yell himself hoarse.
Frisco and Vernon are not the
only Coast league teams that will be
strengthened this week. Look at old
Cap Dillon and Hen Berry, for instance
With Kline and CaStleton on the job to
help out and Thorsen getting down to
business, 1t looks like the Angelic bunch
would be in the running from now on.
Dillon has a fine bunch of twirlers In
Tozer. Nagle, Kline, Castleton, Thor
sen, Delhi, Criger and Briswalter, not
to mention old Dad Wheeler, and as the
season is yet young there is no telling
which team will beat out the Angels
Oakland has been overplaying itself
and with three other teams in the
league fully strengthened so that they
can go some, it looks like the VOL
verines had their troubles cut out for
| them from now on.
Jack Ripper never misses an oppor-
tunity to say a nice word for his pal,
the big boy. Kip makes his arguments
strong because he is right and because
he is talking for another who is also
right There is no squarer fighter in
the world than Jeffries, and there never
has been any scrapper more honored
and more worthy of honor and adula-
ton by the fans than jeff The man
who wants to commit suicide can find
the short route open to him by declar-
ing otherwise. Jeff is one fighter In
whom the whole world has entire con-
f1dence, and 1t is not misplaced. The
