BASEBALL STARS
COME FROM WEST
SOME OF MEN TO BE SEEN IN
MAJOR LEAGUES NEXT SEA-
SON HAD GOOD RECORDS
THIS YEAR.

Portland. ore, Now 1S.-Portland
is turning out a finished minor league
player in Ivor Olson and he will un-
doubtedly be a great addition TO Cleye-
land next year. He led the Beavers i'm
scoring runs. stealing bases and In
sacrifice hitting, and all the fans
know he played a bang-up game at
shortstop all year
Hank Perry of Sacramento is the
champion hitter Of the coast with an
average Of .2S5 for the season. He
wound up his work by making three
hits out of three times mp last sun
day.
Artie Kruger ranks next for the
Ga games he played in. with an average
Of .279. beating out Royal Shaw of
san Francisco by a single point. Gus
Fisher. who led the Portland bunch
practically all year and the league part
Of the time, kept up his hitting to the
last, finishing with an average of .277.
While Ping Bodie fell by the way
side in the fight for the leadership. he
finished far to the good as a sugger.
His 80 home runs gave him 90 extra
bases. but he also hit 90 two baggers
and triples. which gave him 1872 to-
tai bases for the season.
AS long distance hitter Walter
/ Carlisle. OF Vernon. rank second with
t 313 bases. Tom Tenant, of San Fran
cisco, third. with 2S7, and Buddy Ryan,
of Portland. fourth, with 275. Ryan hit
! Is home runs triples and 30 doubles.
Carlisle was the leading run getter
In the league. He crossed the home
/ plate 1877 times during the season. He
/ led the Vernon batting order all sea-
/ son. hit well himself and had a good
/ hitting team behind him. Olson ranks
second in the number of runs scored
/ with 11S. He made 70 less hits than
Carlisle. led his batting order only
very short time and was backed up
/ by the poorest batting team in the
league. so his work as "A run getter
was really of higher order than Car
isles
Ivan Howard. the Los Angeles Sec
ond baseman is the champion base
stealer of the league. He purloined
90 sacks during the season. Maggart,
of Oakland. who was hailed most OF
the season as the best man. finished
second with so stolen bases. and he
made three more hits during the sea
son than Howard too. Olson led the
Portland boys i'm that department with
40. Rapps stole 80 and Ryan "a.
Wares. of Oakland. was the demon
sacrifter He laid them down" cor
rectly 65 times. He played i'm 223
games and Murphy. OF Los Angeles,
who played in only Is, sacrificed 81
times. so if Murphy had gone the fun
season. he would probably have taken
Wares title away from him Olson
ranked third i'm the league with so.

COAST FIGHT FANS CLAIM
WOLGAST IS POOR CHAMP

san Francisco. Cal, Nov. Is. - Al
though Tom Jones, manager for Ad
Wolgast, the lightweight champion, is
shouting as hard as he can shout that
his charge will not think Of boxing
anybody before February. Promoter
Louis Blot is shouting just as hard
that Wolgast and Nelson will go on
before his club next month. But in
the event that anything happens To the
lightweight champion, Blot will be
ready To put on Antoine la Grave and
Jackey Mcfarland
Wolgast is headstrong youth. a
hard one to manage, according To all
accounts. For champion he has
come i'm for less notoriety and earned
less money than any other lightweight
or even feather weight who ever wore
the crown. Some of the followers of
the game even go so far as to blame
Jones for the unpopularity of the
young scrapper
BE this as it may, Wolgast wired
Blot two weeks ago, accepting his
terms Of guarantee Of $500, with a
privilege of 40 per cent. To box Nell
son for the lightweight championship
of the world here on the afternoon of
December "a. Blot, who had already
made arrangements with Nelson, be-
gan congratulating himself, for he
thought the matter closed until yes
terday. when he read what Jones had
to say about il.
AS a matter of fact, nobody seems
to know the extent of Wolgast's recent
injuries. 1t is known. or at least it
was announced that the champion in
jured his right arm twice within a pc
riod of six months. The last time
about two months ago. All sorts of
contradictory reports have been sent
out in the meantime, and the fans all
over the country have begun TO ac-
cept them all with the proverbial grain
of salt.

CLAIM MATTY is BEST.
National Leaeuers Think He is Strong
est In Pinches.

National Leaeuers Think He is Strong
est In Pinches.
National league ball players say that
the wonderful Christy Mat;newson
displays his marvellous ability only in
pinches. According to the old leagues
players Matthewson is just about the
easiest pitcher i'm the world To hit
when no one is on the bases. In fact
the pitching looks so easy it's hard 10
get IL safe. Matthewson always pre-
fers to make opposition hit and trust
To his fielders. If he gets away with
such kind of pitching and is able to
win. he cares little how hard he is hit.
It's in the pinches. however. thai
Matthewson shows his best form and
any man who has ever batted against
Christy when n hit meant a couple OF
runs will tell you that he never saw a
pitcher who had such dazzling speed,
arp-breaking curves and mysterious
tadeaways. Jack Coombs, who jumped
into fame by his triple victory over
the Cubs. works something like Mat
thewson, inasmuch as he always has
something in reserve. It's the reserve
ball that he hands up in the pinch.

WARD NOT A CANDIDATE.

New York. Nov. 1S.-John NJ. Ward
will not be a candidate for the pres
idency of the National League of Pro-
fessional baseball clubs at the coming
election. Ward was candidate last
year and ran against John A. Heydler,
the vote being a deadlock and Thomas
J. Lynch being chosen as .compro-
mise. He wrote President Lynch to
this effect today.
1t is understood that several OF the
National league club owners are OPP
posed to the recollection of Lynch. but
the withdrawal of Ward from the
field probably will insure Lynch's re-
tention i'm office.

Coach Williams of the Minnesota
team believes that the plays which

Wolverines and looks for victory.
Many sporting writer's of repute are
predicting that the score will be tie.

In the result of tomorrow's game and
number of large bets have been re-
rorded. Sentiment seems to be about
evenly divided between the teams.
None of the local fans have found it
possible TO attend.
For Eastern Supremacy.
Thousands of followers of the blue
and crimson are gathering at New
Haven for tomorrow's Yale Harvard
game. Every train from the east and
west brought it's quota of enthusiasts.
Practically every ticket for the field
/ has been disposed of, and the Yale
stands are sure to hold n record
breaking crowd tomorrow. Harvard
| is favorite in the wagers, some bets
/ at odds of nearly To 1 being offered
on her chances. However, the uneX-
pected showing made by Yale in the
struggle with Princeton last Saturday
has made some of the betters cautious
and the Yale end will not lack for
hackers. 1t is freely predicted that
before the game the odds will stand
about to 4. or 5 to 3.
Syracuse illinois.
Probably the most interesting game
outside of the two above mentioned
will be the contest between Illinois and
Syracuse at Urbana. This contest
is the only intersectional scrap OF
the day. Illinois has not been defeated
this season, and has some claim upon
the conference title. although the eX-
perts who have seen the two teams
play almost unanimously give the
plum to the Gophers. The scores be-
tween Illinois and Syracuse and Mich
igan and Syracuse will afford a gooc
basis for comparison between Michi'
gan and Illinois.
Wisconsin Chicago.
The winner of the Chicago Wiscon'
sin game will probably rank thir6
among the conference colleges of the
west and interest in this contest Is
not as keen as i'm other years.

TURF CONTEST STARTED
ON The PACIFIC COAST

San Francisco, Nov. 1S.-The news
from Los Angeles that a 6O-days meet
ing will be held at the Santa Anita
track this winter was the topic Of con-
servation among the horsemen at the
Emeryville track yesterday Many look
for war; as it is known that Tom
Williams, head of the Jockey club
does not intend 10 let anyone interfere
with the success of the meeting here.
Racing on the coast has been in a
rather precarious state for the last
two years and turfmen say that strife
among the tracks won't help the sport
10 any great extent.
1t is figured that the results of the
election will help the turf interests
but how has not yet been made clear.
The track owners at Los Angeles made
the announcement OF resuming the
sport on some alleged promise that
there would be no interference. The
business men Of that city have felt
that the lack Of entertainment i'm the
way Of racing has diverted hundreds
Of tourists 10 other points along the
coast and it is claimed that the Santa
Anita owners have the backing of the
business interests in and around Los
Angeles.
Whether the Los Angeles promoters
will get a sanction is an open ques-
ton. Even if no sanction could be
secured 1t is believed here that the
southern owners viii start anyway
