Show ANGELS VICTORS Chancemen Stop McCredie's Crew 4 to 3 Fincher Charged With Defeat LOS ANGELES, May 24. Cold weather held no terrors for the Angels, An-gels, and they illuminated an otherwise other-wise dark day with a 4 to 3 victory over Portland. To "Curly" Brown goes the honor of twirling his mates to a victory, although al-though "Curly" didn't stick around to witness his personal triumph. He was let out in tho sixth after a series of passes. Charley Hall then went in and performed a labor of love by stopping stop-ping the Beavers. Portland scored three runs in this frame, but this wasn't enough, as Los Angeles previously had amassed four. Wilie whacked out a triple with two gone in the ninth, but the deed was not greeted with wild applause, as the half-frozen bugs were in no mood for extra Innings. Therefore it was opportune op-portune that Wilie should bo left at third, which he was when Farmer drove to Ken worthy Fincher pitchod in cold storage form until rpmnvffi fnr n ninoli hiiim- wMr.li was in the sixth. In that round Mc-Crcdie Mc-Crcdie fussed around for the better part of ten minutes trying to devjse ways and means for winning the game. His strategy was faulty in that it did not provide for one more run. Bren-ton Bren-ton then went in and let the Angels down with one walk and one hit. Ellis made a beautiful catch of a foul by Rodgers in the first. Rube caught it with his hands between his knees while running full tilt The Los Angeles score began to grow in the second.
