One of the Indians will pitch for the Seals tomorrow, the other one will work Friday Fri-day and Spicier Baum may have his liver tamed into submission so that he can toil on Saturday. That will put it up to Krickson and Chief Johnson to fling1 next Sunday in case Oldham has to join the army. The pitching staff oi the Seals is so skimpy that each fllnger knows he has to stick it out any time he stains. Truck Hannah always looks dangerous with the war club for Hen's likely to crash in with a line drive any time," but Krickson and Oldham had him tamed I Tuesday and today. He had plenty of chances to drive in runs, but could not deliver. Rudy Kallio is expected here before the end of the week, and If he is In shape to pitch he will get a job right away, for the Seals need help. Speed Martin is showing more gray "matter in pitching this year than he did last season, when he was a sensation. He may not compile as big- a list of winning games as he did last year, but he is going to be a tough bird to beat. He pitched Sunday of last week; then on Wednesday and came back yesterday, showing that he is a horse for work. j i San Francisco Chronicle. J ; ! Special to The Tribune. LOS ANGELES, Cal.. Sept. 19. Del Howard, manager of the Oakland club,: today beat Tom Darmody of the Tigers to a new pitcher by ten minutes. The owner of the Vernon Tigers telegraphed ' to "Ducky" Holmes of the Lincoln club offering: to purchase Pitcher East, who ; I had been doing wonderful work for Lin-I i coin. Holmes replied that he had closed! a deal with the Oaklands only ten min- ' utes before whereby East is to ioin Howard's How-ard's snuad. Frank Chance tried to purchase pur-chase East last spring. The war has not onlv caused Manager Man-ager MeOredie to lose Fincher for the 1 r-fst of the senson. but on his last trip south he was informed that Curie. the I young university of Southern California first sacker whom he had signed and who was to report next spring, had enlisted, en-listed, and there is no chance of considering consid-ering him as a 191$ possibility. Currie was regarded as more than a possibility. He is a left-handed thrower ami batsman, lightning fast, tail and rangy, and considered the best looking initial sucker in southern California semi-pro semi-pro circles. Portland Telegram.

Pi teller Dailey lived up to McCredie's prediction. He set the Oaks down with four hits, the lone ace of the Oaks being be-ing due to Mensor's walk and steal and Murphy's single. In the fourth inning Dailey retired the side on four pitched balls. Middleton flied to Baldwin. Murphy to Farmer and Stumpf to Williams. Catcher Baldwin has improved In his batting. He lined out three safe swats and crossed the plate twice.

Kremer, who replaced Krauso, was touched up freely, but only two runs were scored against him.

Billy says the big fellow will be a sure winner next year. To help out in the emergency. MthT Jack K ill i lay or Roy Bliss will join the j Seals, while Spider Baum is nursing his , liver.
