position given to us submitted in writing

every dollar we raise. And | am asking

will give us large sums for permanent i'm
provement we can afford to pay off all in

Its steadiness with KenwOrthy out,
and the offense is badly crippled
with Kennie's Betsy rusting in the
bat bag. 1t will be recalled that the
Seattle team of last year was only
one-half as powerful with the Duke
on the bench. Until Portland gets a
veteran of the type of Kenworthy to
steady its infield, the Beavers will
never get very far in this mans
league
Should Kenworthy be lost for
keeps, Bill Keeper says he will de-
mand the return of Marty Krug, and
place that veteran on second How
ever, it is difficult to imagine Marty
quitting a big league pay roll for a
job in the minors, and Klep may find
it hard to coax Krug back, even
should the Cub deal he revoked.
May Not Be So Sad
While Klep and Kennie are wear
may not be as dark as they SEEM
Judge Lands, according to all that
has been said and written, is a pretty
square old guy 1t is hardly likely
that he would chastise Kenworthy so
severely, even though the Duke did
make a mis-step Keeper himself
AYERS that it is he, and not the Duke,
who is at fault. 1t is the opinion
of this writer that Lands will give
the Duke another chance to trod the
straight and narrow. plaster a fine
on the rotund Bill Keeper, and let
it go at that.

KENW0RTHY is
SICK OF FIGHT
Man Ruled Out of Game by
Lands, from Portland
Club, Is Discouraged.
BY ROYAL BROUGHAM

SEATTLE, May 16.-Has Bill Ken
worthy played his last game in organ
lied baseball? Has Betsy, the good
old war club which has broken many
a young pitchers heart, been laid
aside for good? Fans Of Seattle and
Portland, viewing with apprehension
the continued long silence of Judge
Lands, are beginning to believe that
the expected pardon is not coming
And Kenworthy himself, in a state
ment made to the writer is of the
same opinion.
Accompanied by Bill Keeper, Ken
worthy went all the way back to
Chicago to lay his cards on the good
judges lap. They were certain that,
given a chance to explain, the High
Commissioner would act favorably on
their case. But Lands not only
greeted them coldly, but has refused
to issue a statement concerning his
plans. And the Duke, sick at heart
and discouraged, has about given up
the fight.
Looks Bad, Says Duke
at looks bad for the old Duke"
Kenworthy told the writer, before
losing a Sunday double-header recent
ly at Portland. 'Tm out and it looks
as though the judge is going to shut
the door in my face. We all looked
for decision last Saturday, but not
a word lit begins to look as though
the Duke will have to hang up the
old monkey suit and retire to Han
ford"
The Beaver club, a pretty fair
team with Kenworthy on second
place, has sunk into last place The
Duke is the handspring of the club,
and the players themselves openly
admit that they are helpless with
out Kopecks. The infield has lost
