Salt Lake collected. The victory yesterday and the defeat de-feat of Los Angeles by Oakland puts Salt Lake on the top of the heap with a percentage of .667 When the players beard !a6t night that Oakland had won and that Salt Lake went to the top, there was all kinds of rejoicing. re-joicing. In an attempt to get even. Mc-Credle Mc-Credle sent Callahan against Blank-pnshlp's Blank-pnshlp's hopes, but it was a ain attempt at-tempt All tho fans were pulling for Hall The youngster never was in trouble and he displayed an assortment of Dltflhinz that stamps him as one of I the regulars on Blankenshtp's staff He worked like a veteran, fielded his position well, showed the fans speed, curves, a change of pace and an ability abil-ity to clout the ball However the latter seems to be a failing with every ev-ery man Blankenship gets around him. Hall let down in the ninth after two "were gone and donated a little to the batting averages of his broth era In toil. He allowed a walk and three hits to the bottom of the baf ting order, but when three runs were scored he tightened up and made the top of the order send a weak fly to the outfield. Salt Lake never hesitated about what they were going to do to Calla han Jimmy Shinn. first up, allowed Umpire Finney to call the third strike on him. Orr hit a slow one at Stumpf and the former major leaguer promptly prompt-ly and very thoroughly kicked it all around the second base position Zacher picked out one he liked and laced it into right field. The ball took a hop over Doane's shoulder and Orr scored while Elmer scampered around and held up at third. Tennant started one streaming toward center, but Callahan, Cal-lahan, running the risk of losing a whole arm, stuck his glove in front of it. He recovered and got Tennam at first, but Orr had scored the sec-ptJ sec-ptJ run of the day Then Joie Gedeon who would be a great ball plaer if he could "improve" his bitting, cot hold of one he thought had all the j earmarks of a fence ball Joe gave ! - that pill an awful slap and a home run, over the left field wall, resulted It looked as If that sort of stuff was going on Indefinite!, for Eddie Halll nan spanked one far into center field, but Speas morgued It in front of the clubhouse for third out The local awatsmiths appeared to like Callahan and in the second inning in-ning they had another merry-go-round Hannah went out Infield, but Faye smeared one for a single to right. Just to keep under cover for a little while Hall fanned. Then Jimmy Shinn slammed the ball on a line to center for one base but Speas fooled with it long enough to allow Faye to score and Shinn to gallop to second. On top of this, Orr smashed the ball to right and Shinn scored, but Billy was out trying to reach second sec-ond on the throw in Portland made a bid in the second, but Salt Lake played air-tight baseball base-ball and kept the runner away from! thp plate Stumpf led off with a fly to Zacher, but Carisch, anothpr ex big leaguer, pinged the pellet for two baxs. Iyober walked Davis hit a hard grounder to Gedeon and Lober was retired at second. Carisch land ing on third and Davis at first. Mc-Credle Mc-Credle ordered the double steal, but Hannah crossed em When Davis started tearing for second Hannah made a break toward second and Carisch started coming in. But Truck pulled half around and whipped the i ball to Halllnau. who tagged out Carisch. In sliding back to the bag Carisch planted his toe and heel plates in Fddie's leg. None of the cuts were serious and Eddie 'hd not have the scratches dressed until the end of the Inning Portland scored In I he fourth. Speas took a fancy to on and lifted it over the richt field wall RipiU cn top of this Derrick sneaked one through the infield. This did not perturb Hall in the least He was calm until he looked over behind third base and saw Arrellane? and Johnny Williams warming up This peeved Hall and he proceeded to stop the funny business by striking out Stumpf and Parisch and forcing Lober Lo-ber to bounce an easy grounder at him. This was about the only time that tli northwestern youngster really real-ly cut loose. He didn t relish the idea of beins lifted, so stopped the rally in a most decisive manner. Salt Iake broke Into the run column col-umn aain in the fifth. Shinn walked and was sacrificed to second by Orr. and took third when Zacher went out Coltrin to Derrick. Here Tommy Tennant picked nn the first ball Tal lahan pitched to him. it was a long, hard double against the right center wall, and Shinn walked in Gedeon skied to Lober for the last out. In the sixth another ace was chalked up. With two gone. Faye singled hard to left field. Hall, who had fanned twice added to the gaiety of affairs and polled the ball against the wall In richt field for two stations. sta-tions. Faye, under a great burst of speed, went all the way home before Eoane retrieved the pellet and sot it back in the infield Shinn drew transportation trans-portation again, but Orr fanned for the last out Hall pitched himself out of another an-other tight hole in the seventh Carisch singled infield and lxber routed the ball to the east for two bases With men on third and second and no one out. it looked like a cinch for Portland to score But Hall couldnt see it First Davis sent a fly to Gedeon and then Coltrin skied to Orr. Callahan ended what first looked like a profitable inning for Portland by fanning. Salt Lake's lat run came in the eighth Hall wauted to do his share of the hitting, so he clouted the ball over the left wall. The ninth was the best rrame of the day for the Beavers, due largely to the generosity of Hall. After Stumpf and Larisch died aviating. Hall gae lober a walk. Bert was just tossing I hem up Davis clicked one for a double and Coltrin singled and scored both runners.
