The crowd that gathered in Main street to watch the electric board detail the hundreds of plays of today was the largest that ever gathered for a similar event. The street was packed from building line to building line, and the I windows in every building within a wide semi-circle were filled with eager faces. At times the jam was so great that the kindly of rices of policemen were needed to bore a passageway for vehicles. The crowd was good-natured and, with few exceptions, happy, since the "White Sox won the world's series game and the Saints' the only Portland game played to a decision. There were numerous Is'ew York fans In the crowd, of course, but they were in the minority, for it was proved to a certainty yesterday that Salt Lake, as is all the west, is' for the White Sox. So many former wester! players are on the Chicago club that such a leaning lean-ing is only natural. The board will play the world's series game today and the fans who attended yeserday are again invited, together with as many more as the street will hold. Special to The Tribune. LOS ANGELES, Cal., Oct. 6. No club in the Coast league is going to make any morey this year, says Manager Howard of the Oakland club. Although Howard asserts that no club will make any money this yearr not one will lose any either. Owner Darmody of the Tigers, considered consid-ered one of the shrewdest men in the leagtie, has "guided his club safely through the financial storm. San Francisco has drawn weli this year and Berry did not spend much money for players. The Angels also have drawn well, but Powers has spent considerable money for players. Howard was kicked out of the game yesterday for making one remark. He said: "How can 1 expect to get the breaks with a jitney -bus bandit umpiring umpir-ing the bases and a pirate with a 36-inch neck handling the balls and strikes." Guthrie told 1dm to go to the clubhouse. That Portland will be dropped from the Pacific Coast league next year is the belief be-lief of Howard. Howard thinks the expense ex-pense of traveling to the Duck city is too much and that the directors of the Coast league, at their meeting here in November, Novem-ber, will drop the Beavers and substitute some club, probably Sacramento. A resolution asking the league to end its series the same week that tiie major leagues close will probably be introduced by Howard at the annual meeting. Howard How-ard said today he was strongly in favor of such a move. President Powers of the Angels is being be-ing urged to protest the game which San Francisco won from Vernon Thursday. Kallio, who pitched for the Seals, rin-ished rin-ished the season in the Western league. There is a Coast league rule which says that any man who has played a full championship season in another league cannot be used by a Coast league club the same year. Powers would appear to have a clear case if he can be induced to press the point. Tho only tiling that deters him is that he does not fancy winning win-ning a pennant on technicalities. Still, even though such a step doesn't jibe with his ideas of sportsmanship, he is entitled to some sort of protection. He has built up a winning team at large expense, and in so doing has adhered to the rules of the league. It is easy now for a rival magnate to pick up players who have finished fin-ished in other leagues, but it is not fair to Powers, who went out and got them when he had to buy 'em. If San Francisco Fran-cisco is permitted to play Kallio, why should not Los Angeles be allowed to use in the last two weeks of the season G rover Alexander and Raindeer Killefer of the Phillies, who are coming out this way to winter? President Darmody of the Vernon club is arranging to attend the meeting of the Minor League Association of Professional Profes-sional Baseball clubs at Louisville, Ky.. next month. One of his objects in attending at-tending is to out through a number of deals which will strengthen the team next season. A new infield, two pitchers and at least ono more catcher are among the additions planned. I If! Special to The Tribune. PORTLAND. Ore., Oct. G. Although the Saints made plenty of hits in the two games, they worked the sacrifice to death; but it helped thern to win the first game. Orr tried to score on a short passed ba II in the second inning of the first game, but was pegged out by Baldwin, Penner covering the plate. Johnny Tobin hit like a wild man auainst Penner and Da t ley, but Gardner had enough to fool him. Tobin had eleven chances in the two games. The double -header tomorrow will close the season here. Kenneth Williams's absence weakened the Beavers, as Lee misjudged a ball that j helped the Saints tie tiie score. Williams would have converted It into .an out and perhaps have stopped the ninth-inning rally. Williams is at his father's bedside In Grants Pass.
