Snort on Science bat Hard Hitters. BY DICK SHARP. Naturally the main event of every boxing card Is the big drawing mag net and in it is centered most ofvthe interest, but on Wednesday night's card at the Milwaukie arena the in terest is spread all through the bill. The lineup of set-tos that Match maker Frank Kendall will serve to the fans Weanesday looks on paper to be the best presented at the su burban city arena this season. There are no weak spots apparent in the makeup from outward indications. Although Terry Keller, the Ogden light heavyweight, has met and held his own with nearly every good boy at his weight in the game, the dope sters are predicting that Lee Ander son, the San Francisco light-heavy, will defeat him in their ten-round tangle. Lee made such a wonderful showing against Sam Langford at the Heilig theater the other night the fans just can't get it out of their heads that he is the real McCoy and pitted against any good maji at his weight figures to more than hold his own. Although Langford may not have been in the shape for Anderson that he was for ,-Tiny" Herman, it can be taken for certain that Lee will be In much better shape for Terry Kel ler than he was for Sam. Anderson got in only two days boxing prepara tory to the Langford fight and his mlxup in Sacramento was enough to put any boxer off stride. Both men are training hard for the coming struggle, Anderson working out at 1:30 at the Olympic gymnasi um and Keller at 3 o'clock at the came gym. Several hundred fans watched the boys workout yesterday and drew their own conclusions as to the result of the fracas. Frankie Murphy, the Denver wel terweight, should beat Battling Zu Zu of Manila in the eight-round eemi windup, but if he does will know that he was in a fight. Frankie will not have any trouble outboxing Joe Waterman's Filipino scrapper, but should he decide to wade in and fight, as he usually does, the ring eiders will be in for a donnybrook. Fight is all Zu Zu knows how to do. He is as tough as nails and won't back up. Win. draw or lose Zu Zu never loses any friends and is us ually right badk on the next card. Macario Flores, the Filipino 133 pounder. Is one of the best looking boxing prospects that has hit the northwest in some time. Flores has been in the United States only a few months, but in that short time has fought his way to the top. Flores is a slugger and a fair sort of boxer, however, his punch is his main forte, and what a wallop he packs in either hand ! The Manila boy is built something on the lines of Joe Clorman, being short and chunky. "Mac," as Joe Waterman calls Flores. is down to battle the rugged Johnny Fiske six rounds. Eddie Moore, the clever little Se attle mixer, who will be making his debut here, will have a tough one to contend with as a starter in tackling Ray Rose of Denver. Rose is a regu lar little chunk of muscle and a toe-to-toe battler. Al Nelson and Chick Kocco meet in the other bout. m Jack Dempsey fears seasickness more than he does any human in the entire world, for which reason the conqueror of Jess Wlilard has turned down one or two big offers to go abroad for a titular tilt. But the lure of the lucre has about scored a de cision over the world's champion, and it is probable that he will leave for England within the next three months. Another world's champion and an American-bred boxer, who is going over to show the bally Britishers his fistic form Is Pete Herman. The New Orleans bantam will make the trip to London for the purpose of meet ing Jimmy Wilde, but it is all up to Dempsey before Herman's sailing time is made definite. If Dempsey decides to accept a lu crative offer which is being wished on him by a British promoter in New York now for a date in January then Herman's bout will be put on in Feb ruary. In the event that the heavy weight selects the second month of 1921 for his match there then the bantam boss will take on the fly weight champion sometime during the first month. No definite opponent has been named for Dempsey, but it is likely that an ef fort , will be made to stack Jack against Joe Beckett, heavy weight champion of England and who was knocked woozy by Georges Car pentler in 67 seconds.

OAKLAXD, Cal., Oct. 24. Pride In the athletic history of St. Mary's col lege, Oakland, which recently was overwhelmed, 127-0. at football by the University of California, prompted several younger graduates of the col lege to write the school authorities asking that the team be strengthened or withdrawn. A few days after the letter was received announcement was made at St. Mary's that the team' had disbanded on account of injuries to star players. "It will require a good many years to w-ipe out the stain and the shame of the score," the letter said. "One hundred and twenty-seven to nothing is a record not easy to forget." Three years ago St. Mary's defeated California at football, 14-13. Several years ago 1st. Mary's was represented in baseball by the Phoenix team, de scribed by some as possibly the most famous baseball team that ever played for a college. Professional leagues later claimed several mem bers of the Phoenix team, including Duffy Lewis, Harry Hooper, Harry Krause. Eddie Brady, Louis Guisto, Joe Oeschger and others. Walter Malls, who helped pitch Cleveland to the 1920 world's championship, at one time was on a St. Mary's nine. HOSEST PLAYERS ARE LOSERS Crooked Ones Get Less Than Team Winners Would Have Had. Reports coming out of Chicago naming the amount paid White Sox players for throwing the world series games show how a few of the crooked gamblers on the team simply took the money out of the "honest" players' pockets. By winning the series each Sox player would have received 11950 more than they got for the losers' share. Sixteen players losing $1950 apiece means a sum of $31,200. The eight involved didn't get as much among them as the team would have gotten had they won the series hon estly. When "Happy" Felsch first heard his name was mentioned he issued a statement saying: "It's all ttje bunk." Later, when faced with the evidence and confessions of Cicotte and Jack son, he replied, "By George, the joke's all on us now, isn't it?" Yes, it's about as funny as a cry for help. DECISION BOUTS FAVORED AUSTRALIAN" PROMOTER SAYS GAME NEEDS XEW LIFE. Change for Worse In TT. S. Laid to Short Distance Mills 2 0.. Chapter Real Test. Snowy Baker, the famous Australian boxing promoter is of the opinion that only the restoration of decision box ing matches throughout the country will put the game back on its former plane. He had the following to say on the subject In San Francisco the other day: "For some years past the boxing game has been on the wane. The days of Peter Jackson, Bob Fitzsim mons, Jim Corbett, Grlffo, Dixon. La vigne and their like are no more. "I believe this change for the worse. as far as America is concerned, can be laid at the door of the no-decision game. "The relntroduction of 15-round bouts to a referee's decision is the salvation of boxing. A boxing en thuEiast declared to me lately that "15 rounds is long enough." "I have promoted boxing battles of from four to 20 rounds in England, France and Australia. In all I have promoted over 8000 contests. From the varied experience I contend that a 20-round fight is the real test. "The boxing game is a test of strength, endurance, skill and phys ical condition. The 20-round journey is a true and thorough test of a box er s ability in three essentials. "I have had several years' experi ence in importing scrappers to Aus tralia from America and England. In most cases, with the exception of such men as McVea, Langford. Clabby, lie Goorty and their kind, my American Importations were boxers trained and familiar only with the four and ten round "no decision" scheme of affairs for some time past existing In this country. "When I stacked these lads up against Australians who were 20 round fighters I found your Yankee boys did fine for ten rounds, but if the battle went to a 20-rouhd point decision the battler from the U. S. A., in most cases, faded out and was licked badly in the succeeding ten sessions. A case In point: "I have always felt that If our late champion. Les Oarcy, and your ring craft marvel, Mike Gibbons, met in a ten-round bout, when Darcy first ar rived in the V. S. A., I fee sure Mike would outpoint our kangaroo cham pion However, had the fight been a ! 20-rounder. my opinion is that Les would come through a certain winner, with the great possibility of a K. O. victory. "For a 20-round fight men must attend thoroughly to their prepara tion. To become champion, these men must learn in a hard school all the points of the game. The tanzo danc- J ing, kangaroo hopping, "hanging-on." - " 1 --j , --" ira.eui toaay. will be no more when boxing returns to its own, which I believe it wia do in the near future." - St. Paul Team Sets Record. St. Paul made a new American Asso ciation record for games won when it took the first game of the final double header at Columbus on October 3. It was the 115th victory for the Saints. They managed to lose the second rumn of the dav then na ok ,ii un hiked for Baltimore for the class AA championship series. Many Veterans "Lose the Spot" Be cause of Temporary Loss of Con fidence or by 'Worrying. Sometimes an expert trapshooter. or sometimes one wrftj may be classed as a semi-expert", but very frequently a novice, one with but a few years' experience over the traps, will be "go ing almost better than he knows how," when all of a sudden he "loses the spot." One expert shooter says he saw Mark Arie lose three out of four consecutive targets In the sec ond 25 targets from 18 yards, in the final competition for the Hercules all round championship troph;', over the South SI ore Country club's traps at Chicago on August 9 cf last year: then he braced up and ran over 100 straight (including 50 straight from 20 yards) and finished ud with 49 out of 25 pairs for a grand total of 19E out of his 200 targets. Looks like he lost the spot for a minute or two. Charlie Newcomb once mildly be rated long-run trophies. He said they had caused him to miss manv a tareret he would otherwise have broken, be cause he would get to thinking, "If I break one (or maybe two) more tar gets I'll have a long run." He thus got his mind wandering for a second or two. and the result of his next shot was sometimes not what he de sired it should be. He lost the spot. too. As for the semi-experts, and par ticularly the novices, lack of expe rience can be blamed for the spoiling of what promises to be an extra good score for them. A single lost bird and the'balloon may begin to ascend, if they don't quit worrying over it and forget it right away. The target has gone and you can't get it ack," but make sure of the next one. Keep on worrying about it and almost be fore you know it you have ruined every chance you had of making a total worth bragging about. The bal loon has ascended. Under such cir cumstances it is very hard for any trapshooter with little' or no expe rience to pull himself together, until the end of the event comes to his rescue and he has time to cool off and start in to break them all in the next event. Confidence is. It is believed, the real secret of success at the traps to just as great a degree as It is in all other branches of sport. Confidence in one's gun and load, added to coufidence in one's ability to break targets, brings good scores and, therefore, the expert may always be looked to for a good total. As a rule, an expert knows why he missed a target, but some times he gets "an unaccountable"; that does not worry him in the least and he goes on pointing In the right "spot." But the semi-expert, and es pecially the novice, are often liable to what may. be called fits of mental aberration. Misses come in bunches, the balloon is on its way, and the "spot" Is lost until the individual shooter comes down with his balloon to terra firms; that is to say, until the victim regains that composure of mind which alone brings the confi dence necessary to pointing the gun in the "spot" where the load should go. Stage fright is a fruitful cause of lost targets, as' many a newcomer at the traps will agree. It Is a question whether any trapshooter ever faced the traps at his first tournament without experiencing this painful con dition of mind to a greater or less ex tent, Luther Squier said recently of a case very much to the point. He said that a certain individual who was a new shooter had been breaking them all at the home traps. Then he went to a tournament, ful of pep. He started off and missed a bushel bas ket of them before he finally pulled himself together and did himself jus tice in the latter part of the pro gramme. Luther said he- asked him what was the matter with him at the start and got a reply like this: "Wlren I first started out I thought every body was watching me, and that got my goat and I missed a whole flock of 'em; then I missed Borne more. Well, I then found out there wasn't a single person paying any attention to me, and I started in breathing freely again and breaking targets like I did at home." For the above reason one doesn't admire the skill of the expert who, in a shootoff, wins from a back mark quite as much as both the skill and the nerve of a 16 or 17-yard man who. in the same shootoff. makes a close race of it, even if he does come out second or in third place. Everybody was "watching him." and he knew it. A shootoff, particularly In some event of importance, is a sort of an "ordeal for anybody, expert or semi-expert: but for a novice it must be almost nerve-racking and trying to the last degree, and for such a one to make a good showing, even if he does not actually come out on top, is deserving of not only commendation, but of the respect of all trapshooters. The case of the man who knows where "the right spot" is, that is. who knows where he should hold (or point) his gun to do the most good, but who can't for the time at least, put his load in that place, is in a bad fix but that's another story al together. GRID PRAISE IS EXCHANGED Harvard and Centre College Tell Each Other of Sportsmanship. CAMBRIDGE, Mass.. Oct. 24. Coaches and players of both Harvard university and Centre college had nothing but praie for the ability and sportsmanship of their opponents in Saturday's football game. Captain McMillin of Centre, said: "Harvard had the best line and line play wins football games. Captain Horween is a good player and a clean player and his generalship was splen did." The opinion was freely expressed by Coach Fisher of HsVvard and his assistants that Centre's offensive was one of the most powerful ever put forward in the stadium. , "You did a wonderful job," Coach Fisher told Captain McMillin. "Not wonderful," answered McMil lin. "but Just our best. They were just a little too big for us and won derfully coached." DAILY METEOROLOGICAL REPORT. PORTLAXD. Oct. 24.

Wyandotte, Mich. "For the last four rears I have doctored off and on without help. I have had pains every month so bad that I would nearly double up. Sometimes I could not sweep a room without stopping to rest, and everything I ate upset my stomach. Three years ago I lost a child and suffered so badly that I was out of my head at times. My bowels did not move for days and I could not eat without suf fering. The doctor could not help me and one day I told my husband that I could not stand the pain any longer and sent him to the dru" store to get me a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and threw the. doctor's medicine away. After tak ing three bottles of Vegetable- Cons- rmd and using two bottles of Lydia Pinkham's Sanative Wash I could I do my own housework.
