Cricketers Lose Aggressive Soccer Contest. BEGINS TRAINING Los Angeles Boxer Starts In to Prepare for February Bout. WILL MEET WISCONSIN LAD Bantam-Weight Champion Arrives In Portland and Makes His Head quarters at Policemen's Athletic-Gymnasium. BY W. J.-PETRAIN. Danny Webster, the clover little Los Angeles boxer, who Is matched to meet Frankle Conley, of Kenosha, Wis.', here on February 8, arrived In Portland yes terday and will resume his training today. We'bster Is accompanied by his brother, Eddie, E. Jones and W. S. Bowser, the latter being two prominent Lob Angeles sportsmen, who are great Admirers of the little claimant to the bantam championship, and who came to Portland for the double purpose of see ing Conley and Webster in action, as well as to see the Jeffries-Gotch per formance here Friday night. Webster Gets Trophy. Some time ago Tom McCarey, the Los .Angeles fight promoter, hung up a ifaandsome trophy bolt for the bantam championship, and Webster, in a series of ring engagements, was declared the winner, and he has brought the trophy with him to Portland, and it is now on exhibition at a local cigar store. In speaking of the recent aviation meet. Webster said Paulhan and Cur tiss -were the idols of the Angel City, and some of their feats in the air were on the order of the marvelous. When Paulhan made his record breaking flight to the ocean and re turn the chickens of the many poultry iarme in that vicinity hurried for shel ter, squawking in fright, says Webster. He says the chickens behaved just the eame as horses formerly did when the Automobile came into use. Policemen's "Gym" to Be Vsed. The Los Angeles boy will do his training at the gymnasium of the Po licemen's Athletic Association, though It is doubtful if the public will be ad mitted, for the reason that the pres ence of a crowd prevents the policemen from enjoying the benefits of the club during the time certain reliefs are off duty. However, it is possible that the clubrooms may be thrown open to the tPublic one or two days each week the little fellow works out, and in that way the fans will have a chance to see him. Yesterday a big crowd of fans vis ited Tommy Tracey's gym and saw Frankie Conley go through his train ing stunts. It was Conley's first work out for some time, and during the hour he held forth he put on the gymnasium .gloves, 10-ounce mitts, with Jack Tuck er and Gus Rosche for two rounds each MOrNT AXGKL BARELY WINS Columbia Defeated in Close Game of Basketball. In a spectacular game of basketball .played Saturday at the C. Y.

Though handicapped by a slippery floor, to which they were entirely un accustomed, the Mount Angel men showed themselves a very fast aggre gation and of championship caliber. ;Both teams played a hard consistent 'game, no particular stars being notice !able.

(To the Sporting Editor.) Dear Sir: I am quite an admirer of Phil Cooney, the shortstop, and would like to know through your paper wily he was turned "back to Portland by Cleveland? Cooney will remain with Cleveland 'unless disposed of by the club to some other team. McCredie was to have se cured him for the purpose of selling him to the Aberdeen team of .the North western League, but that club has since dla.bamied. and Portland's man ager claims he has no place for Cooney on his club.

California and Pacific Ball Organ izations Convene at San Fran cisco for Business. SAX FRANCISCO, Cal.. Jan. 23. (Spe cial.) Directors of both the Paclflc Coast and California State Baseball Leagues will hold special sessions in San Francisco tomorrow. The State League will meet In the morning for the purpose of form ally admitting San Jose into membership and for the adoption of a schedule. The Coast League, with a full repre sentation of delegates, according to re port, will hold its session in the evening. The Coast League session will be an In formal affair, chiefly for the purpose of arranging for their midweek game in Oakland to be played on Thursday instead of Tuesday. This plan Is said to be agreeable to the Oakland club, which is chiefly Interested, and if so, is not-likely to encounter any opposition from the directors. The Coast League schedule has already been arranged by the committee appointed for that purpose, but will be ratified by the entire body. Walter McCredie will be here to represent the Portland club and Henry Berry has announced hie in tention of being on the ground. Cal Ewlng, who has returned from Los Angeles, says that Berry has nothing to say to him about deposing Danny Long from the secretaryship. Evidently Berry has made up his mind that he would be lacking in support in any such move and has wisely abandoned it. Since Presi dent Graham and Walter McCredie have lined up strongly for Long, the Southern delegation can be assured that "D. W.' will keep his Job. . Dinner Given Ball Teaifl.

FAN DOM AT RANDOM Perle Casey is looking his best this Winter and the little captain of the Portland baseball club Is anxious to see the season open. He has kept hjmself in shape through the off season by par ticipating in swimming stunts and other athletic exercises. Incidentally, . he ref- ereed a boxing exhibition. Joe Cohn, the talkative owner of the Spokane baseball club, who is really a good story teller, is, gallivanting about' the East picking Up good baseball ma terial for his club next season. Now that Portland does not want Cooney, Joe stands a chance of getting the player ir he can beat other magnates to Jim Mc- Guire with his offer. "Happicus" Hogan, manager of the Vernon squad, has signed as first base man William Fisher, who hails from the Newcastle team of the Ohio-Pennsyl vania League. It is a good bet Fisher will get the prefix "Mlque" affixed to his name before he is long in the Coast League. In all the tables published giving the I leading batsmen of the different base ball leagues of the country. Miller, of San Francisco, is mentioned as the Coasters' premier. Miller played in something like 40 games. Ote Johnson, Portland's slugger, who played 205 gahes, should be entitled to first honors. Beall, of Los Angeles, batted over .400 for 40 games, but soon drifted to a normal po sition. Miller might have followed suit bad he joined the league sooner. Every, ball player who decorated a Se attle uniform when that burg was repre sented in the Coast League .has come in for a rap by Seattle scribes. Yet, some of them are the best who played any where on the Coast. This Is a strange state of affairs when it is considered that the percentage of Pacific Coast players who make good in the major league is greater than the number from the Northwestern League. The vagaries of criticism are hard to follow. An electric pen has been Invented which will prevent forgeries. TTiIf pen makes tiny porforatlons through the paper. SCORE 3 TO 2, CONTESTED Game With Mud Trimmings Spectac ular, Wrangling Prevailing. Umpire Denies Partiality. Victors Near Cup. Spectacular soccer football, with mud trimmings, was witnessed yesterday aft ernoon at a gameplayed at the baseball grounds between the Queen's Park and Cricketers, in which hard-fought contest the Queen's Park came out ahead for aggressiveness and luck. The Queen's Park, according to the referee, George C. Gollan, lately of San Francisco, say they scored three goals and that their opponents only scored two. thus leaving the Queen's Park victors by the margin of one goal. This Is disputed by the Cricketers, one of the officers of that . club saylifg last night that the Cricketers would lodge a protest with the Portland Football Association on the ground that the alleged third goal sent through by Inglls at 4:86 P. M. was taken when he was offside. The 'game was marked by wrangling and the assertion is made that Referee Gollan favored the Queen's Park to the extent that he gave too many decisions in their favor when he failed to take notice of their alleged foul play in body checking players when these players were not in possession of the football, and in failing to blow his whistle when players touched the football with their hands." Mr. Gollan says he refereed the game as well as he could, and showed no favor to either side. He is one of the crack soccer fullbacks of San Francisco, and was lately picked for international honors, so he knows the game. Anyway, the Cricketers are to' lodge a protest against his decisions. Ball Finds IooI. The ground was not so water-soaked s was expected. The worst bit was at the upper, end of the west side, where a big pool had formed of water and mud, and through this pool very often the ball was kicked to and fro, without any progress being noticed. The Cricketers lost the game largely because of their failure to out play Drake, ne of the Queen's Park fullbacks. He is a sure kicker, one of the best in town, and too. often his op ponents "skied" a ball to Drake which he kicked to safety. The better play would be to sh'ort-pass around Drake and oppose him with a man as big and as strong as he. There are several in this city. Drake sometimes plays far too roughly and "goes" for his man. A wide-awake and fearless referee would soon stop this. Both teams played one goal each for a long time, and the play was of the pro fessional order. Then two goals each were scored, to the great delight of the crowd. Cricketers' Goat First. The Cricketers won the first goal at 3 P. M. through a clever shot by Coppln ger, who scored through a pretty pass from Alblnson. Thirty minutes later. Robertson, for the Queen's Park, scored by brilliant play combined by hard work.' At 4:02 o'clock a long shot came from one of the wings which reached Ned Mays, of the Queen's. The Cricketers' goalkeeper was knocked down, and Mays passed the leather through. At 4:35 o'clock the best goal of the day was made when Coppinger kicked a corner and the ball fell into play. Instantly, Coppinger, 'the watchful, headed the leather under the bar. It was a star bit of work. One minute later the Queen's Park rushed the play up the field, and Inglis' at center Scored the goal which is disputed. It was impossible to see the play exactly unless one were at the goal mouth, so bunchy did the play become, For the remainder of the playing time the Queen's Park had the best of it, and they fairly peppered the opposing full backs and goalkeeper. Critically speaking, all the Queen's Park players did well. Robertson de serves praise for aggressive work, but he should not talk so much. Drake should get special attention from the referee it would Improve Drake s play. Coppinger was the best of the Cricketers, closely followed by Alblnson, Stewart Pratt and Banham. Crecy, the new cen- MEET HELD SATURDAY NIGHT HIBERNIA SAVINGS BANK DOES A General Banking Business Pays Interest on Savings and Time Deposits ' Cor. Second and Washington Sta.

This leaves the Queen s Park still In the lead by an easy margin and it looks now as if they ought to carry off the silver cup on a dry field. Y. M. C.A.

Sullivan, Corbett, Sharkey Gone; Jefrrles Will Pass All Illus trate Speaker's Point. NEW YORK. Jan. 23. Jack Johnson, the champion-pugilist, delivered a lecture on manliness at the colored men's branch of the Y. M. C. A. today. Sobriety, appli cation, and again sobriety, he said, are cardinal requisites for success In life, with the devotion to one's aged mother a close fourth. Johnson told of his early struggles and obscurity. Then he launched into his discourse. "To approach intelligently the psychol ogy of pugilism," he said, "it is essential to grasp the distinction between the venal side and that side that makes for the upbuilding of manliness. Depth of lung, although of much assistance, is not essential. Sobriety, application, sobriety -write those down in your notebook. Sullivan subsists by vaudeville; Corbett is no longer a serious factor in pugilism; Sharkey has passed from the domain and Jeffries will pass. I do not animad vert, but sobriety is the touchstone of success. 'Learn to use your hands and not to fall over' your feet, and your social suc cess will follow." Brothers Overwhelm Hassalo.
