THE SUNDAY OBEGOSiAS,' PUllli,A:;iJ,' .GvE31IiKK 11, 1917. "3 TRAGEY CHOSEN TO REFEREE BOUTS Ex-Multnomah Amateur Ath letic Club Instructor to Act Tuesday Wight. ALL-STAR CARD ARRANGED Anderson-Benjamin, Mascott-Gor-nian, Wagner-Madden, Abe Gordon-Edwards, Iieonard-S. Gor don Matches Are Listed. Tommy Traccy, former boxing in structor of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club- and famous welterweight boxer, has been chosen to referee the Harry Anderson-Joe Benjamin bout Tuesday night at the Eleventh-street playhouse. The managers of the two boys agreed yesterday on Tracey, con sidering him the most capable man available to referee such an important match. The winner of the Benjamin Anderson match will have a claim to the lightweight championship of the Pacific Coast and will be in line to meet the winner of the Muff Bronson-Alex Trambitas bout here November 23. Both boys have been training hard for the match and are in the best of condition. Benjamin will box with his "sparring partners again today, but Anderson will not do any more boxing until the night of the match. Anderson Ends Work. The Canadian wound up his training routine yesterday, going eight fast rounds with Weldon "Wing and Jack Wagner. He also practiced shadow boxing and bag punching. .Benjamin will take on Billy Mascott and Freddie Lough today and will rest Monday. Harry Anderson is the better boxer of the two, but Benjamin has an advan tage in hitting. The bout should be one of the best witnessed this season and promises to be a sensational one. When the fans see Anderson in action they will see about the fastest boy they have ever glimpsed here at any weight. He has a formidable record and has the distinction of holding Freddie Welsh to a draw, when the latter was champion of the world. Eddie Pinkman, Chet Neff, Lloyd Mad den, "Roughhouse" Charley Burns. Clonie Tait and a host of other good boys have falen victim to Anderson's cleverness and speed. Benjamin's friends have all the con fidence in the world in him and think that Anderson will meet his Waterloo Tuesday. The bout is scheduled to go six three-minute rounds. Mnscott In Fait. Billy Mascott, the little Portland bat tler, will try to bring the feather weight championship of the Northwest back to i-ortland. in the semi-windup, when he clashes with Joe Gorman, of Seattle, holder of the Northwestern featherweight title. Billy has been training diligently and with his right hand in good shape should give Gorman a tough battle. Gorman will outweigh him by several pounds, but Mascott hopes to make up the difference in weight by his speed. Gorman had two bouts last week, meeting Frankie Sul livan and Bert Forbes. He beat Sul livan and fought a draw with Forbes. "Gorman will arrive here tomorrow for his bout with Mascott. Joe will be ac companied by his manager, Dan Salt. The special event between Lloyd Mad den, of Seattle, and Jack Wagner, looks to be one of the best bouts on the card. At the last boxing show here Wagner and Madden put up a hurricane match. Madden winning the decision. Wagner is in better shape this time and ex pects to reverse the decision. Madden is a good boy, one of the best light weights on the Coast, and can be de pended upon to give Jack a real en gagement. If Wagner can beat Madden it will be a great feather In his cap, and realizing this he is out to win. Abe Gordon Improves. The bout between Abe Gordon and Danny Edwards will be another "sure fire" affair. When Abe left Portland to go East about a year ago he was the cleverest boy at his weight in this part of the country, but he lacked ag gressiveness. In the East Abe met a number of the best flyweights and bantamweights in the country over the 10-round route. Away from home and getting accustomed to meeting good boys, Abe soon changed his style and started in tearing in, standing up and swapping punches with his opponents. As soon as he found out that he could take them he defeated every boy he met. In meeting Danny Edwards he will be against a crackerjack boy who will be ready to mix as well as box. janny win nave about six or seven pounds advantage in weight over Abe. Around Oakland and San Francisco they consider Edwards the fastest 115 pounder developed in recent years and expect nim to beat Gordon. Ray Leonard, the newsboy feather weight, will box Sammy Gordon. Abe'i younger brother, in the curtain-raiser. The first four bouts will go six three minute rounds, while the curtain-raiser will go four rounds. Tommy Tracey also will referee the Gorman-Mascott bout and the Wagner-Madden bout One of the largest crowds of the year is expected to see the all-star card.

COMPETITION PROVES KEEN Celro-Kola Team in Oregon Alleys House League Now Lacks font Few Points of Being Leading Team in Organization. One of the snappiest aggregai ion.- in the Oregon Alleys House League i .. year is the Celro-Kola team. Altliu.. this is the boys' first year in th- uo, . ing circle, they started out to conquer and they have made a fine record. Ai present the team lacks but a lew pm.it.- of leading the league. Uhis is Captain Dietz first year in the game and for a recruit he has made fine record. Much credit is due him for the team's success. A better pilot could not be found. His average for the 12 games played on the league schedule so far compares favorably with the records of most of the old timers. Gus (Invincible) Springer, high mi . of the team and one of the highest roll ers of the entire league, also is cap tain of the Bergmann Shoe Company team, of the Mercantile League. An average of 173 is checked to Springer's credit so far this season and he is still going strong. i Frantz Sinsheimer, another beginner n the realms of pins, also has made good scores. Rumor has it that Frantz cherishes an ambition to lead the league in rolling by the close of the season. Eugene Hoch. Jr.. otherwise known as Der Kaiser. has maintained an average of 165 in all 12 games rolled. William Bergmann, the "dark horse" of the team, was the biggest surprise of the quintet. He has a way of play ing the game that puzzles and the con firmed league leaders look rather anxiously to their laurels. The team has won eight of the 12 games rolled this season and is second in the league standings. PAST WEEK IS EXCEPTIONAL Woods and Jones Are Tied for Indi vidual Leadership. The past week has been of exceo- tional interest in the bowling world. several records having been piled up. as tne season is getting fairly under way, more and more interest is beinir exhibited in the league matches, and enthusiastic auddiences attend all the "big-time" affairs. Woods and Jones are tied for Indi vidual leadership in Commercial A bowling, both smashing the pins at a isu cup. une latter has a shade the better of the tie. having maintained this 'exceptional average for 18 games, while Woods has rolled but 12. Blaney, in 18 games, is but two points behind the leaders, with Buck, Sholin and Eldon both rolling better than 180. Kerr and Bill Thompson, both of the Zerolene team, rolled a dandv game for the "standard-oil-for-motor-cars" people, and helped the team to take three straight games. Patterson Is still going after the 300-mark single-game record. He has checked up several 200 games to his credit during the past week. Connie Meyers, "Multnomah's Pride." is getting down in fine shape for her tryout in Spokane, where she will roll for the women s championship in th Dig tournament. She has made the highest score on the alleys this season for- the fair sex, hitting a 256 clin. Hazel Davis, who has not been on the alleys for several weeks, is back smashing 'em again. Miss Davis Is also getting Into form for the Spokane tour ney. Jasman is probably the highest Inde pendent bowler on the alleys. He has maintained a 216 average for six games. It would not be surprising to see him In the line-up of one of the league teams in the near future. E. Garter, formerly of the Bergmann Shoe Company team and now in the United States Navy, has written his former teammates a letter promising to send them a nice little German sol dier for a present if they cop the league trophy. w alter woods roiled a good game last week with a 615-205 average. Wal ter called the kingpin the Kaiser and when he cracked It on the nose the rest were goners. The Kaiser had R. V. Jarvis' goat the first two games he rolled during the week, but on the final game he got his batting eye again and rolled 232. OREGON ALLEYS LEAGl'E STANDINGS. Rose City League. W. L. Pet. IT. S.

SMITH. S' AN FRANCISCO. Cai., Nov. 10. (Special.) If Carl Morris is the best of the Eastern heavyweights San Francisco fans can get along nicely without the big fellows from east of the Rocky Mountains, thank you. Just one peek at Morris was enough, and convincing. It was a demonstration to local fight followers of the inca pacity of Morris as a scrapper and al ready the hulky Oklahoman is on his way to some other seaport town which may be more gullible. As a fighter Morris is one huge joke; so much so that those of us who watched Jack Dempsey trim the big fellow sat back in our seats and laughed at the spectacle. Morris . in his actions resembles a heavily loaded coal barge moving through the chan nel. And when he starts shooting his gloved hands around he's all the world like a clumsy bear pawing with his claws. Morris simply didn't know what to do. Dempsey, scared to death at the outset of their battle, finally gained confidence. When he started walking around Morris it was all off with the big clown. Morris was lost completely, and a fighter more experienced than Dempsey might have scored a knock out. The bout finished Morris as any sort of an attraction hereabouts. Ho tried to alibi his way to safety, but It was no use. The simple truth is that Mor ris has nothing but weight and height to recommend him. He has 225 pounds of avoirdupois to wear down the other fellow, and when that isn't enough Morris is as good as beaten. How the East ever fell for Carl Morris as a "hope" is something hard to understand. San Franciscans, who are admittedly good judges of boxing, turned their thumbs down after watch ing four rounds. Jack Kearns, who manages Demp sey, thinks his big charge is destined to become a heavyweight champion of the world. And Kearns may be right at that. Heavyweights as a rule take a long time to develop. The allied promoters are figuring on importing some - new opponents for Dempsey. Frank Schuler is figuring on Fred Fulton, Frank Moran or Tom McMahon, Jimmy Dime's big scrapper. It hasn't developed as yet whether the authorities will permit of the impor tation of more Eastern talent. Accord ing to reports that went the rounds last week, the bars are to go up and we will be forced to enjoy our sport with men in this section of the country, In cluding of course those Easterners who are so lucky as to be here Just now. War, and you can spell the word with WILL BOX AT THE NEWSBOYS' SMOKER TUESDAY NIGHT AT THE ELEVENTH-STREET PLAYHOUSE. BILLY MASCOTT. ORGANIZATIONS IN THE CITY. Canal Barge Stuck in Mud When Hulky Oklahoman Gets "Ha-Ha!" caps If you want to, has kicked the props out from under football here, the same as has been the case with base ball. Folks haven't the time nor the inclination to talk of sports with the more serious problems of the war con cerning them. Sporting affairs are by no means go ing to die out, but until the big conflict is ended the battle of the gridiron or the diamond will never be quite the same. On the subject of football, the an nual Rugby contest between Stanford and Santa Clara will be played this year at Stanford, and the following sea son in the Mission town. It can hardly be said that racing at Del Monte is a financial success. There were five days of racing all told on the course near the famous hotel, and not enough was taken in for the men behind the project to break even. The promoters catered chiefly to the wealthy and social classes, and in con sequence fell short with the gate re ceipts. The society folks didn't turn out, either for the racing or the golf or the polo. Eventually, perhaps, the Del Monte Fall meeting will be something worth while. There are some wealthy men in the club, fellows who are willing to take a chance, and they have an nounced their intentions of trying it out again. Coffroth wanted to see the meeting succeed, as he has hopes of breaking back Into the state with racing in the future; his highest hopes being to come to the throne that was held by the late Tom Williams. But Coffroth was counted out by the men in charge of the Del Monte meeting, and it isn't likely he will be invited to take a hand in the future. San Franciscan baseball fans are ap parently apathetic over the Pacific Coast League situation and the drop ping of Portland. While the addition of Sacramento will naturally mean league of less importance, the fans don't care. Indeed if baseball is to count for much in the future it will be necessary to have some radical changes. Some of the fans argue that baseball is alto gether too mechanically perfect; that what the boys want are more errors and consequently more chance to roast I the hired men. "Let somebody throw the ball over the fence once lr a while," said a fre quent attendant at the games the other day. There's such a thing as having baseball that's too perfect." Neither Fresno nor Sacramento will, support baseball of . the. six-a-week va riety, and one town will be sufficient to keep going. JACK WAG EH COURSE IN SHAPE Work Progresses Slowly Upon New Nine Holes. MIXED FOURSOME TODAY Event Will Be 1 8 Holes Medal Play, With Handicaps Allowed Win ners Are to Receive Two Beautiful ' Prizes. The beautiful weather of the past week enablec: tne members of the Port land Golf Club to enjoy their share of the great outdoor game to their heart's content. The course is in great shape and the recent rain was all that was needed to put the course in the best condition it has been for many months. Work is progressing slowly on the new nine holes. The grass is slowly but surely making its appearance on a number of the new greens, and C. C. Gross, chairman of the greens commit tee, is very enthusiastic on the new ad dition to the club's course, which will be open to the Portland club members next Spring. The new nine holes are going to be a very difficult course to traverse with out losing a. large number of balls. The hazard are numerous and difficult. Rudolph Wtlhclm, Oregon State and Pa cific Northwest champion, looked the new addition over last week and said It was one of the best he had seen. "It Is going to take some real golfing to cover that nine In 40. The hazards are numerous and so situated that it will make the best of the local golfers use every bit of their golfing knowledge to get around with a low score." said Wil helm. There will be a mixed foursome today on the Portland Club course. The event will be 18 holes, medal play, handicaps allowed. Two beautiful prizes have been donated for the wlnntng couple. The monthly dinner-dance will be held at the clubhouse next Saturday night. The same lively music which featured the last dance has been en gaged for Saturday night, which in sures all those attending a. jolly good time. The dance will be in charge of the house committee, which consists of George Anderson. C. C. Gross and Sam B. Archer. James A. Beckett and Clif ford Moore will be in charge of the floor. Mrs. TV. B. Scott won the ladies' weekly handicap event and, as is the custom, will offer a trophy for this week's event. A number of the women members of the Portland Golf Club prefer Saturday as the day for the playing of the wom en's weekly handicap, and it is likely that the matter will be brought to the attention of the chairman of the tour nament committee and the event will be held on Saturday during the Winter months. Owing to the shortness of the days Lduring the Winter months, it is more than likely that a rule will be adopted by the tournament committee making it compulsory for all match or medal play competition to start before 2 o'clock. WAR SERVICE IS URGED ABERDEEN BOYS AXD GIRLS ASKED TO ASSIST GOVERNMENT. rian Oatllnrd by Principal H. E. Holra qntat Mar Be Submitted to Other , Grays Harbor School. ABERDEEX. Wash., Nov. 10. (Spe cial.) A plan for getting every Aber deen High School student interested in some form' of war work has been out lined by Principal H. E. Holmquist, of the Aberdeen High School, and sub mitted to the other principals of this district. It probably will be adopted in several schools. Mr. Holmquist's plan calls for the enrollment of each student on cards showing his or her war work, and which from time to time will note the progress each student is making. He says there are 1,200,000 high school boys and girls in the United States, and if all of these could be interested in some form of war service a great source of undeveloped strength would be found. Among the suggestions for war work for the boys are those of joining the Boy Scouts, entering contests for greater food production, picking quan tities of wild blackberries, joining American Boys' Army, and organizing a waste paper saving club in the high school. Among the snggestions for the girls are those of joining the Campfire Girls, My America League, and forming can ning clubs in the hisrh schools. Highway Equipment Stored SALEM, Or., Nov. 10. (Special.) The State Highway Commission Friday re ceived three carloads of equipment which is to be stored .for the Winter at the fair grounds here. The equip ment is valued at about $75,000. 16 ROLES SEI Portland Commission Lays Down Regulations for Men.

THIS MAY HALT ALL DEBATE Correct Pronunciation of Cicotte Is Finally Made Public. CHICAGO. Oct. 29. Eddie CIcott has not only a "shine ball." but he has a shine name! Manager Rowland has refused to allow the correct pronunci ation of this surname past the censors for strategic reasons. This is a new wrinkle In inside baseball. Rowland figures that Jf the hostile fans are kept in the dark they won't be able to ride his star slabster. It's a gcreat Idea! Umpires have to guess at the pronunciation when they see it in the batting order. In this way Row land fools the fans and gets even with, the umps. In Boston they give it the Harvard accent Sea-ko-tay. In Cleve land the fans from the screw and tack factories screech It Cykottie. In De troit they tell Ty Cobb to "Sick-it!" In St. Louis it Is She-coat-tea. In New York It gets all t-ie var?e:!es. We haven't space or the audacity to print what the Giants call Kddie. Mc Graw is going to cross Rowland, how ever. His scouts have run Eddie's name to cover, and the correct pro nunciation and accent Is made public it Is Sigh-cot. (Think of the first two games and accept the Sigh. Think of a. small bed and you have the cot.) 165 S. P. & S. Cars Demanded. SALEM. Or.. Nov. 10. (Special.)
