ing entered the last day that entries

held in the Naval Slip on September .
!, and 5. 1t was thought for a while
that it would be impracticable to hold
these events on account of lack of
entries, but from the looks of things
at the present time, the girls swimm.
ming races should be as well infested
as any of the other events of the
program.

CINCINNATI, August l4.-Christy
MathewsOn s Rcdlpgs won the first
game IN over a week yesterday after
noon in the National League series by
defeating the Chicago White Sox here.
Although this win hardly places the
Reds in a running for the pennant,
nevertheless it is of interest to see
that the Cincys can still win game.
The score was Cincinnati 1, Chicago 3.
In the other National League games
yesterday, it took the st. Louis Cardi-
uals eleven innings to nose out the
Pirates in st. Louis. In the eleventh
inning the Cards brought in the ninth
run for their score column and the
Pirates struck the jolly Roger and left
the field. On the closer between st
Louis and Pittsburgh the Pirates turn
ed the tables on the Cardinals and won
by the count of 9-5.
Only the four western teams PLAYED
in the American League. Cleveland
climbed another notch by defeating
Fielder Jones crew in Cleveland bv
the score of 43. This places Cleveland
only two full games behind the Boston
Red Sox at the top of the American
League.
Chicago dropped game to the Tigers

the Vernon Tigers and the Portland
Beavers in Vernon yesterday after
noon.
The San Francisco crew had things
their own way here in yesterdays ex

more than a week that the Angels
have been humbled. The Seals open.
ed the day by beating the southern
Californians by single tally, the
score standing 10. This was an ex.
cellent game and might have gone
either way until the latter part of the
eighth session. In the second match.
the local team ran away from the visi-
tors and tailed nine circuits while
they once more held their opponents
scorcless. The Seals found the Los
Angeles pitchers easy.
Vernon also started out with the
breaks against them, the first match
having gone to the visitors from the
Rainy City. The Tigers managed to
make two circuits which was four
short of being enough to win. The
score was 2-5. In the second game
the Tigers turned the tables on the
Beavers and ended with the long side

game the score stood Vernon 3, Port

Bank About Her

The following account of the salvaE
work on the steamer Bear, written be
fore work actually began, describes
what the operations were to be. Thi'
plan probably is being followed Il d"
tail. The Bear was driven ashore on
Sugar Loaf rock, Cape Mcndocino, June
13, ana a sand bank formed about her

logging engineers, with rigging pullrrs
and spool tenders from the redwood

the floating of the wrecked steamer
Bear, now lying on the beach near Cape

Salvage men at the wreck, in chHrC"
Of Captain Logan, representing LlOyds
and the engine room crew and mates

have assembled and connected big sand
pumps, while the hold has been pumped
dry and made tight. When operations
start the first work win be for the sand
pump to dredge a basin around tn,
wreck.
Steamer May Save Herself
"From that time until she reaches
open sea the Bear will be not much
more than a big suction drPdgrr She
is expected virtually to save herself.
"The purpose of the bull donkey vii
be to assist the tugs when the first
attempt to move the Bear is made and
before the Bear is free to use her own
motive power. Two powerful tugs have
been secured to assist at this stage of
the work, while the engine on shoe
will be connected with the Bear by
means of line running out to sea. he
yOnd the wreck, to large rock juttinl
above the surface of the ocean. Blocks
will be set on this rock, and through
them the line from the engine will h.
run back to the Bear, making a tyPi-
cal logging engine job, with the Bear
for the log and the rock serving thu
purpose of the usual stump.
Cargo Now Being Removed
"Longshoremen are still at work T"
moving the cargo from the wrecked
steamer. When she went ashore the
Bear had on board some POO tons Cf|
freight, chiefly -four, print paper
cheese and condensed milk About 20C
tons Of the freight still remains in the
odd Of the Bear. A publishing com
pany bought the paper which was
thrown overheard shortly after the
wreck, while beach -combrrs secured n
considerable quantity of -four, cheese
and milk. The bulk of the cargo new
is being hauled to the railroad FOR ship
ment
"Until all of this cargo is out, mi,
preliminary salvage operations can b.
carried on. 1t will be possibly weel
yet before the hold is clear. Sc yrra
days will then be needed for pumping

SLAMS THE FORUM EDITOR
In a recent issue of The Day Book
a reader complains about the sar-
castle letters which appear in the
Public Forum so often. 1 daresay
the writer of that article voices the
sentiment of many readers who are
disguised reading those articles
which contain nothing but sarcasm.
Who is to blame for that? The
Forum editor. Everything printed in
The Forum surely bears his approval
and could be rejected by him.
1t may be that the majority of
readers enjoy reading the slams"
and for that reason it finds space in
our paper.
1 feel as though I have as much
right to criticize The Forum editor as
the policeman had in arresting the
judge of the speeders' court for vio-
lating the law, and only hope the
editor will not grow as indignant as
the judge did and put the curse on me
as it were. We would much rather
read something uplifting in The Foo
rum than lot of rot which is only
slambanging each other and does no
one any good.-H. E. Scheck.
