M'CREDIE HOPES SALE
 OF PORTLAND BEAVERS
 WILL BE CONSUMMATED
,By Associated rrcssI

PORTLAND. Aug. 11.-Hope that the Portland team of the Pacific coast league. all season iu last place. would be sold. was expressed here recently by Walter McCredle, man ager.
 McCrcdic declared that during his twenty.six years in baseball, the noaver club this year was the only team he ever played with or man aged that never had a fighting chance.
 "I don't blame the fans for being sore and roasting me" McCredie said "Td be sore too if I were a fan. Somebody has to be the goat when a team doesn't come through and naturally enough that some. body is the manager. In fact two or three years is long enough for one man to manage a ball club. And here I have been seventeen years. Is 1t any wonder the fans want change
 This has been the fuzziest year in baseball I ever had. I am not advancing any allbis. but as a state ment of fact, every plan l had at the beginning of the season went wrong I thought I had real pitch ing staff didn't and I couldn't get any other hurlers. At the same time no other club in the league coulc get any pitchers from the east Then our lack of a shortstop left the infield wide open.
 q don't know just how soon il can be arranged. but I am reasonably certain that a sale of the club tc other owners will be effected, ant sincerely hope the sale will bt made"

Sporting Notes
CARPENTER NOT FIRST FRENCH BOXER TO LOSE
 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
CBy Associated PressD

PARIS, Aug 17.-Carpentier was not the first Frenchman to have the honor of competing and of being de- feated in a worlds boxing cham pionship match, French statisticians have discovered since the knockout administered to Georges by Demp. sey.
 On July 2S, 1751. Frenchman named Petit, weighing 260 pounds and standing six feet four, met Jack Slack of England, then the undisput- ad champion of the world. The purse was $500.
 Petit. a combination of wrestler and boxer, jumped in the center of thn grass ring as soon as the word 'go" was given and seizing Slack hy the throat with his left hand, be- gan placing his right with great force upon various parts of Stacks anatomy. History does not record why the Harry Ertle of the time did not immediately disqualify the Frcnchman but goes on to relate that slack swung mighty right into Petit" much below the belt and that the Freuchman went down writhing in pain
 When he could summon enough strength to regain his feet, he i'm mcdiatcly used one of them to send a we'll directed kick into Stacks shin The Briton then swung right and left to the chin and the French man was out cold
 They were giants in those days and did not use eight ounce gloves" " concludes the historian

Dan McMillan is certainty for one of the tackle positions, with Jimmie Dean and Stan Barnes fighting for the other.

SPORTING NOTES OF THE WORLD
(Pacific Sports Service)

The announcement of the detailed swimming program for the 1924 Olympic games at Paris is a step in the right direction. It gives all nations chance to outline their plans. It definitely settles the days for the events and what events will be conducted on that certain day, Up to last years Olympic games the program not only of swimming but until practically d few days before the events were scheduled to start. Tn swimming program as announced by the 1924 French Olympic com | mittee extends over eight days and the events each day have been laid out for the morning and afternoon of those eight days.
 1 August 19 to 22 has been set as the dates of the International fly , casting championships to be held at Portland, Ore. The Seattle fly cast ing club will send a team of twelve men 10 the tournament and Man. ager Jack Herman of the Multno. nah club states that Vancouver and | Victoria will also be represented. Tacoma will enter four men who have been making good performances this season. The Multnomah club will of course have a large entry and other team entries are expected from other northwestern cities. What the fans on the Pacific coast | circuit like to know more than any thing else at this particular time is the exact price that McCredie wants for his Pitiful Portlanders. Certain ly he must know better than any one else what the franchise Is worth and he Is just bunking the public in the matter of disposing of the club eS io'b ao ht uotb IidhB SOIIlt kind of price. There must be some basis from which to compute and it is up to McCredie to name a sum. That he will get what he asks for is horse of another color but 1t will give a bona fide purchaser chance to know what he Is getting into.
 The Seals are tightening their grip on first place in the Pacific coast league. both through their own eff. forts and wit hthe cooperation of Los Angeles which has been putting a crimp into the Senators. It is going to take some travelling to pull down the flying San Franciscans.
