TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, PR ID AT, JANUARY 9, 1914. 7 JUMPING OF TINKER UPSETS BROOKLYN National League Pennant Race Dope Altered by Shortstop's Act. ROBINSON HAS CHANCE YET Dodgers, With Bunch of Talent on Hand, Bid Fair to Foot Vp as Well in Different Positions as , , Any Outfit in Circuit. Few baseball fans realize how much difference the jumping of Joe Tinker to the Federals may make in the Na tional League pennant race of 1914. It is likely to upset the order that would result with him In the line-up of the Brooklyns. A close study of the Dodgers' line up makes them ap pear much stronger than they seem at a casual glance. Thev have a star V$ outfield with Zach "Wheat. Carey Sten gel, Bill Collins, and others on deck. They own a pitch ing staff of ability, with Nap Ricker, Ed Eeulbach, Pat Hagan. Bull Wag ner. Frank Allen Joe Tinker. ti Elmer Brown as the leaders. Strength behind the bat is supplied by Otto Miller and Bill Fischer. And the Infield is a beauty in three of the four positions, Jake Dalbert being In a class by himself at first, George Cutshaw, former Oak, ranking with the best of the league's second basemen, and Red Smith, of the . J. Carlisle cognomen, standing among the star third base men. This bunch of talent capably man aged, as should be the case under Wil bert Robinson, bids fair to foot up as well in the different positions as any outfit In the circuit. To appreciate the worth of Robinson, one needs only to consider the coinci dence that in 1904, when Robby Joined the Giants as McGraw's assistant, the Giants won the pennant and repeated when he was on the Job the following year; that Robinson quit in 1906 and stayed retired clear through 1910, in which Btretch the New Yorkers failed to reach the top once, and that in 1911 he rejoined McGraw and the Giant forces then won three successive flags with Uncle Wllbert doing the assistant managerial stunt. It will be noticed that in the fore going Brooklyn line-up no mention is made of the man who will play short stop. With Tinker on the Job, the team would have perhaps the best man in the league. Without him either Enos Klrkpatrlck, a mediocre man, or Gag nler, from Newark, will have to be used. And this means exactly the difference between strength or weakness at this important position. When all is said and done, a shortstop is about the one most important man on the modern baseball club. Figuring on a basis of what occurred last year, the Dodgers, with Tinker playing, would appear to have a royal chance for the flag. The team was shot to pieces last season by injuries to six men, previous to the first of which It battled for first place almost on even terms with the Phillies. In spite of these injuries, the team led the league in batting for the season. It is granted that it was poorly man aged by Bill Dahlen, in one respect at least system of attack. Dahlen did not believe in developing the hit and run game, the best method known for rushing scores across the plate. It was one of his fatal - eccentricities that helped finally to "cause his uncrowning. With all the batting power used prop erly and with Tinker's potent bludgeon added, the team loomed as the best run-getter of the entire array. But without Tinker? Perish the thought. Will the next heavyweight boxing champion be an Irishman? If he isn't he will be an exception to the rule. Every heavyweight champion of Amer ica had Irish blood excepting Jack Johnson, who is a negro, and Tommy Burns, a French Canadian. John L. Sullivan is of Irish parentage, but born in America. So is Jim Corbett, the srreatest, boxer the game has ever known. Even Bob Fltzslmmons, pop ularly supposed to be an Englishman or a Welshman, came of Irish parents. The ancestors of Jim Jeffries, away back, were Irish. Luther McCarty, who also was regarded by many as cham pion. ,had Irishubppdin his veins, his parentage being Indian-Irish. "Gun boat" Smith is widely advertised as "Irish." but some fellows who claim to have the correct dope insist that the gunner is a Swede. Several other heavies now in the public eye have Irish blood coursing through their veins. However, the only full-blooded Irisher of the bunch is Frank Moran, who is abroad angling for a bout with Jack Johnson. A recent discussion of the heavy weight situation wound up in the unan tmous conclusion that there must be a man somewhere in the country who possesses the ability to knock the ever lasting daylight out of any one of the gang now parading before the rlng siders. Farmers, coal-heavers, boiler makers, fishermen. Just plain workmen and college football players were taken under consideration. A big fellow like Larry Whitney, the Dartmouth halfback Rnd shot-putter, for instance, ought to make good material for the ring game, end the same could be said of big fel lows like Ciuyon. of Carlisle, Ketcham. of Yale, Trenkmann, of Princeton, and Brown, of the Navy. . It is a noticeable fact that, even though the general grade of fighters may not be improving, the game itself is taking on a new boom In many parts of the country. A year or two ago New York and California were the only real centers of the game. Now Milwaukee, Kansas City, New Orleans. Boston, New Haven, St. Louis and several other ritles are making a real noise in the boxing world, and Canada also is pro viding an occasional bout worth watch ing. In fact, the sport seems to be coming; back to halcyon days that will find it popular everywhere in the land. ... Kver hear of Ban Johnson's hobby? It is the Civil War. He can tell you the exact date of the battle of Shlloh, who commanded the different divisions on each side, how the battle was fought and the exact number of killed and wounded, as well as the strategic ef fect of it. And the same goes for any other battle or skirmish in the war. He reads every word he can find on the subject and remembers it all lit erally. Some day he may write it all down in a history of his own. But for the present it is weH enough to bear in mind his, pastime, and if there is any desire to get in his good graces, all that is necessary is to be willing to listen to him two or three hours at a stretch as he tells how Stonewall Jackson stemmed the tide of battle, and imninm iJM.ii, iiiiiijiii l. p.. ll : , MX? - finally was shot accidentally by some or his own men. W. S. Langford, the veteran Trinity man, who is regarded as the best foot ball referee in this country, has an nounced his retirement from that work, but it is dollars to doughnuts that be will be unable to stay retired. - SOCCER TEAMS MEET SUNDAY Mount Scott Eleven to Meet With ' Colombia University Squad. The Mount Scott soccer team of tne Oregon Soccer League will play the Columbia University eleven 'next Sun day on' the university campus, starting at 2:30 r. M. The championship game of the Ore on Soccer League, between the Bea vers and the Mount Scott eleven, may never take place, as the Beavers are unable to get a full lineup. The Mount Scott aggregation downed the Beavers, 6 to 0, three weeks ago, but another game was necessary to decide the championship. '"Whether the cham pionship will be awarded to the South east Side team by default will be left to the league directors at the next meeting.

PARIS, Jan. 8. "Jack" Johnson, the negro pugilist, whose arm Is still in splints, said this afternoon he had not received any cable offer of money for a fight with "Gunboat" Smith In Lower California. He continued: "I am ready to fight if the offer meets my terms, which are $30,000. The fight must be after that which has been definitely fixed to take place in Paris during the first week of June, against Frank Moran. the Pittsburg heavy weight. For this engagement William Astor Chanlor is guaranteeing me $35, 000. I expect at the end of the same month to meet Sam Langford, providing the $30,000 I demand beforthcoming." Johnson said that his broken arm. is progressing nicely. The splints are to be removed on Saturday. SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 8. There will be no further negotiations for a fight at Tia Juna, Lower California, between Jack Johnson, the heavyweight cham pion of the world, and Gunboat Smith, foremost of the white hopes, until the outcome of Johnson's other two pros pective fights is known. The plan was that Johnson and Smith should fight across the Mexican border from San Diego on July 4. "My personal opinion Is." said Jack Coffroth, vho was negotiating for the match, -that the first good man who gets into, the ring with Johnson will whip him. I saythis although I backed him against Jeffries. I believe Smith could do the trick and I think "Moran may. Once beaten, Johnson would be no attraction. We shall have to see what will happen." BOT1ES QUITS BASKETBALL Cinder Path Gains 'Where Rosined Floor Loses Athlete. TJNrVERSTTT OF OREGON. Eugene. Jan. 8. (Special.) Oregon's hopes in DasketDaii received a further setback today when Tom Boylen, a letter man last year and a. clever guard and for ward, announced that he would aban don the rosined floor for the cinder path. Boylen was obliged to choose between basketball and track, "Bill" Hayward having decided that he could not keep up the pace in both sports and do Justice to either. This leaves four letter players on the squad Captain Fenton, Sims, Bradshaw and Rice. - Fenton's domicile is the center position, and the other three are all guards, so that Coach Bezdek faces the problem of filling the lorwara joos. The postponement of the game with the Silverton Athletic Club, which was scheduled for next Saturday night, de fers the opening of the season until January 16. when Washington State College will furnish the opposition. During the mid-year vacation, which falls on the second week-end In Feb ruary, the first trip will be taken, with Seattle as the objective point. Be tween the games with Pullman and those with Washington, Bezdek's five will take on Willamette and probably Multnomah in Eugene. LTXCOIxY DEFEATED, 40 TO 14 Christian Brothers Basketball Five Beats West Side Team. Although the Lincoln High basketball team showed good teamwork, the lack of basket-shooting ability proved Its downfall when the Christian Brothers' Business College quintet downed the West Siders, 40 to 14, on the winners' floor . yesterdayl The captains of both teams were the big lights for their re spective squads. Captain Clerin, of Lincoln, scored 10 points out of the 14 made by his team, while Captain Sie berts registered 28 points out of the total of 40. " ' The high school team showed the careful coaching of Vincent Borleske. All the players on the losing team areJ now at the game with the exception of Captain Clerin.

STORY OF JOURNEY TOLD Miss Madden Describes Trip to Reach Portland 3Iade Through Drench ing Rain. Over 'Land Ready to Slide Into Sea. At Wheeler, at the head of Nehalem Bay, the wind began blowing a hurri cane last Saturday and the rain came down In sheets. It was the stormiest weather within the recollection of the oldest inhabitant. By Monday the roads were washed out, Jandslldes had taken place and the condition seemed impossible. At Wheeler there was a party of young men and women who were de termined to get back to Portland, and so, braving the drenching rains, they came out over the old Necarney Moun tain trail and up the beach.. Climbing mountains, . fording raging streams, they made their way on foot to War ren's, at the-head of Cannon Beach, af ter many adventures. In the party were two Portland school teachers. Miss Hat tie Crawford, of Lincoln High, ant Miss Marie Mad den, of Highland School, and Miss Mar Jorie Madden, a young high school student; Miss Conlow. a teacher, of Holton; Frank A. Rowe and Attorney Strowbrldge, of Wheeler? Civil En gineer Miller, of Manzanlta Beach; O. A Wlndfeld and M. Helnzj of Medford. The story of the venturesome trip as told by Marjorle Madden shows the wonderful amount of determination of the young people, the miraculous es capes' they had and the dangers they encountered. Miss Madden is a mere slip of a. girl, with a fair complexion and a great braid of light brown hair which falls to her knees. Train Is Late. "We started for Portland on Monday by train from Wheeler," said Miss Madden. "The train from Tillamook picked us up seven hours late to be gin with. That fact gave us an ink ling of what we might expect. "The wires were down and the en gineer was afraid to take chances of running into a slide, so we had to wait for him to take his engine and recon nolter. He went as far as Enright and then came back, reporting the tracks blocked by enormous landslides. If we wanted to get to-Portland we simply had to walk over the Necarney Mountain and Seaside route. I, Just had to go to high school. I could not miss it and my sister is a teacher. The men were business men. They, too, felt that they must go on. So on we went. "We crossed the Nehalem and on Monday evening we got to Manzanita Beach. We stayed there until 5 o'clock Tuesday morning, -when, with lanterns, we started over the trail. The rain was drenching; it seemed to come down not in drops, but by the million bucketfulls. The trail was running with water and liquid mud. Trees had fallen across It. Sometimes we crawled in gullies. Sometimes we carefully picked our way over slippery logs that crossed deep ravines. Every few mo ments we came to landslides and then we were very careful, for in some cases there were sheer descents of many hundreds of feet right down to the ocean. ' "Just as we had crossed one of these slides we heard a fearful roar and, looking back, saw the place we had Just passed over slip away and go tumbling into the sea. Party Can't Walk on Beach. "We couldn't go on the beach at all when we first came off the trail, as the tides were so high and the wind con tinued to blow and the rain to pour. So we crept along the bank above tide- line. At Hug Point there are three falls that we had an awful time to get by. ' At Silver Point we tried to take to the beach and were caught by the waves. They washed some of the mud from our clothes and added a little ex citement, but we were almost too tired to be frightened. 'On the last stage of the Journey we were able to go onto the beach and we reached Warren's worn, wet and weary. "Never shall I forget how good that big fireplace seemed. We took oil our clothes and rigged up In all sorts of costumes while our clothes were dry ing. We telegraphed to Seaside for rigs to catch the 5 o'clock train and the team had a hard time crossing the Necanicum River, which was out of its banks. Finally we reached Seaside LANDSLIDE WRECKS FARM t 4e V f VIEW OF DESTRUCTION WROUGHT AT ELLIOTT BROTHERS' HOME. CLATSKANIE, Or., Jan. 8. (Special.) Smashing a big barn .and other outbuildings, hurling the- debris across the yard and piling it up to a height of four feet against the house, a landslide practically has wrecked the farm home of Elliott brothers at Marshland, near here. Ten horses and 12 other animals In the barn were killed, while six horses were rescued. The house has been deserted by the occupants, as another slide is threatened and will demolish the house if it occurs. Three acres of ground la completely covered by- the loosened earth, rocks, logs and wreckage. It Is said the slide was caused by flood of water down and undermining a hilL and on Wednesday we got away at S o'clock by train for Portland." CIIEIIALT3 RIVER IS FALLING Danger of Damage In Montesano District Is Averted. MONTESANO, Wash., Jan. 8. (Spe cial.) Water in the Chehalis River is falling fast and within 48 hours condi tions will be normal providing it does not rain again. The danger of big damages to the O.-W. R & N. track and the expensive fill Just completed by the City of Montesano Is over for the -present, the water carrying out Just a small portion of the grade. City officials had a big crew at work all morning protecting the grade, but the fast-falling water is almost beneath the cut made by the current. All families in this section driven from their homes by the high water have returned. No cattle loss is reported. ' farmers generally looking upon the high water as a great benefit and they predict enormous crops as the Tesult of the . rich deposit left on the land. The I Northern Pacific is running its train Ju minutes late. There is a big slide on the O.-W. R. & N. track near Balch, which is being removed. . STORM EXDS AT CEXTRALIA Streetcar Traffic Resumed and Branch Lines Are Rnnning. CENT RALI A. Wash., Jan. 8. (Spe cial.) It ceased raining shortly be fore midnight last night and today the flood conditions in this vicinity are greatly improved. Streetcar service- to Chehalis was resumed late yesterday and traffic on the branch lines out ot Centralia was restored entirely today. The contractors engaged .in building the new Puget Sound & Wlllapa Har bor line from here to Maytown fought hard for two days to prevent the false work of the bridge being built across the Skookumchuck from being washed out. Their efforts were successful, all danger being passed today. The rail road bridge between McCormlcks and Walvllle on the South Bend branch of the Northern Pacific was threatened also. Cowlitz Reaches Flood Stage. KELSO, Wash., Jan. 8. (Special.) The Cowlitz River has reached the flood point and much of the lowland country is being overflowed. Seldom has the rise been so rapid and the driftwood and logs and shingle bolts were for a time so numerous as to make it dangerous for small boats. With a cessation in the rainfall it is now expected that the rise will dis continue, after reaching a height of 15 feet and four inches. PRICE GUTTING DENIED HOOD RIVER APPPLES NOT SOLD BELOW MARKET, SAYS SIEG. Inquirers at Growers' Association Learn Reports Not Warranted "Bine Diamond" Explained. HOOD RIVER. Or.. Jan. 8. (Spe cial.) Reports from, different sources that local apples have been sold at low prices at Eastern auction have been the source of worry among local or chardlsts, who have made inqulriesat the offices of the Apple Growers' As sociation. Wilmer Sieg, who 'has charge of the sales for the Apple Growers' Association, the Hood River affiliation of the North Pacific Fruit Distributors, today denied the authen ticity of such reports and has proved to the satisfaction of those who have called on him that such statements are erroneous. "The statements that the Blue Dia mond Brand of the association has been sold on the Philadelphia auction market for the account of the asso ciation are absolutely .false," said Mr. Sieg. "John B. Cancelmo, of Philadel phia, who for years has been a good customer of the Apple Growers' Union and of the association this year, made purchases from us this year, all f. o. b.. and paying as fast as bills were pre sented. He has, perhaps, made auction sales of this fruit, but always for his own account and not ours, for the fruit had already been sold to him. "Many misleading statements have been made regarding the quality of the Blue Diamond M-and. The Blue Dia mond does not denote quality, but is the registered trademark of the union. The labels carry the statement as to whether the fruit is choice, fancy or extra fancy, etc. The bodies of all the brands are the same. The difference appears only in the words that denote the graHe. It is unfortunate that any one would allow himself to be misled as to the Blue Diamond representing the highest quality of local fruit and that alone." Smallpox Cases Increase. WALLA WALLA. Wash., Jan. 8. (Special.) City Health Officer Mont gomery's monthly report, tiled today, shows the recent measles " epidemic dwindled almost to nothing, while smallpox is increasing.
