Crofts Said to Have Been

ONLY PRETEMDED AMATEUR
Scheme by Which Seattle Sports
Jtakpd In Portland Coin Inglis,
Virtuously Indignant, Threat
ens to Sever Relations.
JL'N'BAU, Alaska, May 7. (Special.)
Henry Croft, who was entered as a
heavyweight by the Seattle Athletic Club
and knocked out Ed Johnson, of the Mult
nomah Club, in the Pacific Coast Amateur
Championships, is the son of Charles
Carroll, the veteran fighter, and is a
brother of Johnny Carroll, now fighting
in' the lightweight class at San Francisco.
Croft fought Nick Burjcy as a profes
sional in Dawson City, five years ago, los
ing in the second round. He fought all
over Alaska, according to Ed Russell, an
authority on sporting events in Alaska the
last ten years.
The Juneau dispatch bears out the
charge that The Oregonlan .made against
Croft, that he was a professional before
he was picked up and carded in the Mult
nomah Club athletic tournament as an
nmateur by W. Li. Inglls.' Mr. Inglis
certainly must have known that Croft
was a professional when he brought him
to Portland, and It looks, on the face of
It, that he was in on the frame-up with
Joe Dizard, the Seattle cigar man who
won all the money when Croft beat Ed
Johnson. '
No matter who was responsible for the
coup, it was well timed and cleverly
played. On the night of the tournament
Croft met a green boxer in Larry 'Mad
den. Croft had a miserable time of it
trying to fake the light, yet he did it
well enough to fool a lot of honest people
who were not looking for Inglls or the
Seattle Athletic Club to put over a
sleeper on them. It was the miserable
showing that Croft put up against Mad
den that made it possible for Inglis and
Dlzard to get their money down, for Ed
Johnson's showing against Madden was
on the level, so a lot of the Multnomah
Club men bet on Johnson to beat Croft,
Just on the showing that both men had
made in their battles with the same
Madden.
This play could not have come up bet
ter for the Seattle sports. Dlzard and
the rest of the Seattle contingent who
were in the know, went to Croft's
chances, hook, line and sinker, and when
they saw that the local sportsmen were
taking all of the money in sight, a hur
ried call was sent to Seattle for more
money. All told, Dlzard and Inglis and
the rest of the frame-up artists carried
away about $1,800.
Just what action will be taken against
Inglis and the Seattle Athletic Club is
not known. E. K. Morgan, a member of
the P. N. A. and one of the committee
men, has already started an investigation
and will lay the matter before President
Sullivan.
the Northwest by Croft that he (Croft)
had once knocked McLagen down In a
contest at a local gymnasium. McLaglen,
to show that he means business and that
he has the necessary confidence in him
self to 'Whip Croft, has challenged the
amateur champion to box him 20 rounds
for a side bet of $500. So far Croft has
not replied to the challenge.
As to Croft's standing as an amateur, it
is freely spoken of here and many say
they have seen him box in Alaska under
an assumed name. He admitted recently
that he had boxed Billy Bates and Jack
(Twin) Sullivan at Fairbanks. Alaska, and
he also owns up to having fought with
other boxers who have been known to be
professionals for some time.
If Croft decides to accept the challenge
of McLaglen. the contest will no doubt
take place in the same arena in which
Abe Attell and Eddie Kelly boxed. Mc
Laglen has many friends in Tacoma who
will back him heavily if he and Croft
come together.
WITHOUT AN ERROR
CARROLL- NEVER FOUGHT MI CH
Only Lightweight Boxer and Xot Re
membered in Alaska.
SAN FRANCISCO. May 7. (Special.)
Jimmy Carroll, the former well
known lightweight, has a son, but he,
never was anything but a lightweight
boxer and never did much in that class.
San Francisco people who have lived
In Alaska do not recall the name of
Crofts as a fighter in the heavyweight
division.
Seattle papers of last week, evident
ly aware of the charges that bad been
made, denied them and stated that
Crofts is the son of a rich Tacoma
business man. If the man who beat
Johnson is a professional, he must be
some other than the party referred to.
At all events, the fact that Portland
sports lost $200 on an amateur fight
might have caused the stories to start.
INGLIS VIRTUOUSLY ANGRY
Threatens to Sever Relations With )
Multnomah Athletic Club.
SEATTLE, Wash., May 7. (Special.)
"The worst kind of rot" is the way the
Seattle Athletic, Club officials character
ize the statement that Henry Croft's real
name Is Carroll and that he was a pro
fessional fighter in Alaska.
"Croft Joined the club a year ago last
November," said Superintendent V. M.
Inglis. "He didn't know a thing about
boxing. All ho knows about It now ho
learned from our boxing instructor, Lon
nie Austin.
"Croft Is an absolutely clean boy. He
has no professional tendencies whatever.
His parents are well and favorably
known folks and their name is Croft, .not
Carroll. They are known to officers and
members of this club. Croft admits that
he put on the gloves with Nick Burlcy
Bt Daweon. He did so just as Gene
West, of the Multnomah Club, says he
boxed with llerrera. He never fought a
match In Alaska, or, if he did, he has
kept It covered up from this club. I
don't see why he should ever have
thought of fighting in the North, becausa
when he joined this club he couldn't box
a little bit. All he did with Burley was
to allow Burley to hammer him around
the ring a bit at Burley's training quar
ters, just as any healthy youngster
might.
"If the Multnomah Club has any
charges to prefer against Croft, it should
present them to the registration commit
tee and they will be sltfed to the bot
tom. It should . not try to besmirch a
clean young fellow through the news
papers. The registration committee, is
created to investigate just such matters.
The Seattle Athletic Club stands square
ly behind Croft, for we are satified that
ly behind Croft, for we are satisfied that
"I may add that, if Multnomah con
tinues the course it is pursuing of cast
ing odium on the athletes of this club
whenever Multnomah's men are beaten,
we are very apt to sever all athletic re
lations with Multnomah. This has been
very seriously discussed by the officers
of the Seattle Athletic Club since the
Portland championship bouts were held
and the absolutely unwarranted Insinua
tions against Croft have been made. If
such things continue, the severance of
athletic relations will undoubtedly be
. the result."
-CHALLENGE NOT YET ACCEPTED
Boxer's Standing as Amateur Ques
tioned in Tacoma.
TACOMA, Wash.. May 7. (Special.)
Lee Croft, the local amateur heavy
weight boxer, who won the amateur
heavyweight championship of the Pacifio
Coast at the Multnomah Club's boxing
and wrestling tournament, held In Port
land last month, has been challenged by
Vlo McLaglen, the heavy-weight boxer.
McLaglen sets forth in his challenge
that the story has been wafted all over
HARE -AND HOUND- CONTESTS
Y. M. C. A. Athletes to Hold Cross
Country Runs and Paper Chases.
A large number of the members of the
Y. M. C. A. Interested in cross-country
and track work met last night at the
residence of Physical Director Grilley,
East Flanders street, to discuss the
formation of some organization which
would handle the preparation of the men
for track and cross-country running.
The first proposal put before the meet
ing was that an athletic club ba formed

to handle all forms of athletics at the
association, but for various reasons this
plan was shown to be unreasonable.
Vosper drew attention to the transient
r.aturo of much of the Y. M. C. A. mem
bership and pointed out that this would
militate against the lasting ..success of
such a club. Director Grilley thought
that it 'would be advieable for somebody
to organize and create interest in hara
and hound contests and in paperchases.
He said that there are too many mem
bers anxious to get all they can out of
the association and what is wanted is to
create a general interest purely for the
sake of the sport involved, and not in
order to pander to the pot-hunter.
C. Vosper moved and Himes seconded
"that this gathering elect a committee
which will give special attention to
cross-country running and relay work
and that such committee consist of a
chairman and four other members." On
the question being put the motion was
carried. On a ballot to form the commit
tee the following members were elected:
V. We.tterborg, W. Backus, Laii, Keys
and Himes. On the committee ballot
ing for a chairman Wetterborg was
elected by an almost unanimous vote.
Taking up their duties immediately,
the committee discussed the formation
of training table regime and the methods
by which it could be adopted at the T.
M. C. A. Following this it was decided
to hold the first paperchase Saturday,
May 16, when Wetterborg and Cartozian,
both of relay race fame, will be the hares
and Himes will captain the hounds, the
start being from Fourth and Yamhill at
6:30. On the motion of the chairman,
Mrs. Grilley was added to the committee
as an advisory board on the question of
a training table, and the adjournment
was made at a late hour.

Coffee Toper Da Bad aa Other..
"A friend of our family who lived
with us a short time was a great coffee
drinker and a continual sufferer with
dyspepsia. He admitted that coffee dis
agreed with him, but you know how
the coffee drinker will hold on to his
coffee, even if he knows it causes dys
pepsia. "One day he said to me that Postum
Food Coffee had been recommended
and suggested that he would like very
much to try It. I secured a package
and made it strictly according to
directions. He was delighted with the
new beverage, as was every one of
our family. He became very fond of
It and In a short time his dyspepsia
disappeared. He continued using the
Postum and in- about three months
gained twelve pounds.
"My husband is a practising physi
cian md regards Postum as most
healthful of all beverages. Ho never
drinks coffee, "riut Is very fond of
Postum. In fact, all of our family
are, and we never think of drinking
coffee any more." Read "The Road to
Wellville," in pkgs. "There's a Rea
son." Ever rad ths above letter? A new
one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true, and full of human
interest.
