PORTLAND SURE FOR

merely an experiment, the team
drew we'll for the first one or two
games and then their showing was
so poor that only a few hundred
radicals turned out ony way reg
ularly for the games.
The Northwestern league, altern-
ating with the Coast in Portland,
will give that city continuous bail,
and will make IL different clubs
playing there during the season.
This will give Portland the great
est variety In the baseball line of
any city on the Coast, and with a
strong team in the northern cir
cult, there is no reason why North
western ball should not draw every
bit as well as that served up by the
Coast.
The name of the manager who
will handle the Portland North
western team has not yet been an
nounced, but 1t is common knowl-
edge that Tommy Sheehan, who
has been holding down the third
sack for the Portland Coasters, is
slated for the job: Tommy is some
wise baseball head, and If he. Is
given any sort OF a show by the
Mercedes, will gather up team
which will make creditable show

Portland will be in the North
western league next season. This
was made definitely certain last
night by the action of the directors
: OF the Coast league at a meeting in
San Francisco, when they voted
to allow the Mercedes to organize
a team for the Northwestern cir
cult, providing the northern sched-
ule was SO arranged that North
western and Coast games would
not conflict in Portland.
This can. be easily done, as the
0Bast circuit is so scheduled that
Portland plays away from home the
greater part Of the season.

the Northwestern, and last nights
action assures that they will, they
will undoubtedly use sufficient

That team was made up with the
idea that Northwestern ball was

cult. In Portland, where it had

chine will be disposed Of and the
Chicago Nationals next year will
have an infusion of young blood.
Many even predict that If, by some
miracle, the Cubs win from the Ath-
letics finally, changes in the team
next year will be made.
Meanwhile the Athletics have
broad and bland smiles adjoining
their frontispieces. Their percent
age of yesterdays receipts
amounted to $4,000. II they pull
down $4,000 today or whenever the
next game is played, the winners
will divide $4,000. This is almost
$4,000 for each player.
Here are a few crystalline com.
ments on yesterdays Cub faux pas:
Fielder Jones: "The offensive
and defensive play of the Athletics
were far superior to that of the
Cubs"
Charles Comiskey: "The Cubs
are done for. 1t was the worst de-
feat ever saw the Cubs take"

The groundkeepers squished their

BAT AND HOGAN
| 60 Up IN AIR

/ 1t9now begins to look very much
as though Battling" Nelson and
"One-round" Hogan would not get
together in that talked Of swatfest
after all. There is a decided hitch
over the question of the distance
the match Is to go. The Dane
holds out steadily for Is rounds of
milling, while Hogan, who is a new
conner in the game, and has never
gone over 10 rounds, oinsists on the
shorter route. Both men are right
in their contentious, as Bat never
gets going in the first 10 rounds,
while Hogan should take no
chances on the long route with
such tough customer as his first
opponent.
