The sale of seats for tho big ath letic and musical entertainment to ho given by th Portland Social Turn Vereln at tho Helllg Theater tonight has been so Jarge that It Is believed the house will be crowded to tho doors when tho curtain rises on the gym nantlo programme. This entertainment being staged by tho Turners promises to be unique and one of the most pleasing seen In Port land in many a day. for the classes under tho direction of Professor Gense rowskl have perfected the drills, form ations, dances and athletic achieve ments In a manner thai will put pro fessional gymnasts to shame. Interest Is being shown In tho num ber styled the "drill of the babies' class." which consists of children from 3 to years old. who will go through club drills, fancy steps and gymnastic exercises In a way that will astonish those who are not familiar with the German system of athletic training. in addition the beautiful numbers called tho "XSlow Worm Idyll" and the "Garland Dance." Introduced by the young ladles of the Turn Vereln, will prov attractions well worth seeing. The Roman ladder formations, and the pyramid work of. the senior boys' class Is said to bo as expert an athletic num ber as baa ever appeared on a Portland stage. Other numbers of equal merit are listed on the Turners' programme, and the entertainment, which is for the purpose of raising funds to send a representative team from Portland to tho Turnerbund at Los Angeles, Is a deserving one.

Thers are 4,- 000.000 now SPALDIMGS WIN IfJ li00RK14-u Ryan's Outdoor League Stars Taught New Features of Sport . BEAVERS HAVE NO CHANCE Champions of Indoor League Have Easy Time Slamming Out Ylo- toryGregg; and Harkness TJn nfcle to Solve "Sponge" Ball. "Buddy" Ryan's collection of major and minor league stars may know all about baseball In the open but the in door game which they essayed to play In tho Armory yesterday afternoon with A. O. Spaldlngs, champion team of the Indoor Baseball League of Port land, showed them points they had missed hitherto, for the Spaldlngs de feated them 14 to 3.' The Spaldings gave Ryan's stars" no mercy.- They cared no more for the offerings, of Vean Gregg, who pitched right handed, than they did for those of "Speck" Harkness. after Gregg de cided that he had enough of tho bom bardment. Whatever the trouble. It was not all with the big league pitchers, for they were not given the support which, might hare been expected, had the out door leagues Indulged in a little more practice at tho Indoor game. Most of Ryan's aggregation threw the "young basketball," used in an Indoor game, as though the limits extended far be yond the walls of the Armory build ing. In fact, the only thing that pre vented many such occurrences was that the home of tho guardsmen seems to be solidly put together. As It was, the Beavers became threat ening in the first, when Pearl Casey and Eddie Mensor connected with the "sponge" for lively binglets, but tho other outdoor baseball lights failed to "deliver the goods," and- Pearl and Eddie were left lonesomo in their glory. After the first inning the "leaguers" were allowed Infrequent acquaintance with tho bases. To make matters worse, the Spaldings slammed the ball at will in the second, and the balls that were not booted for hits were thrown around so promiscuously that the Indoor champions had no trouble in piling up a half dozen scores. Vean Gregg pitched with his right hand, and when he failed to have Gus Fisher leaping into the air. he put the ball Just where the Spaldings wanted it. and tho result was a slam, bang tournament. Gregg resigned in favor of Harkness at tho end of tho fourth inning. When the latter had accustomed himself to the underhand delivery ho did not do so badly. Every once in a while "Speck" would cut loose with his side-arm motion, and when he did there was a general scramble to safety by occupants of the ijnch. Taking everything into consideration the game was Interesting to the spec tators, and there wast a good-sized crowd on hand. The Ryan brigade in tends to practice the Indoor game, for they want another chance at the Spald ings and a return match is talked of for the near future. The score: . A. a. 8PAXJDINGS.

If all the yarns printed in the San Francisco papers anent "Adonis" Norrls O'Neill are true. "Tip" has developed into a most "wndy" individual, for some of the Interviews do not sound like the shrewd and knowing president of the Western -League in the least. Jimmy Wlggs and "Runny" Pearcev pitcher and caitcher for the Oakland team, have signed their 1311 contracts. Pearco Is the son of a wealthy hotel- keeper at Mass' Ion, O., who Is said to have offered his "mountain" of a son a handsome bonus In the event that Oak land wins the "peanut." Jimmy Reagan, the former bantam champion, has returned to Portland from Montana. He has two flattering offers for bouts to be held In the near future, and Is trying to make up his mind which one to take. Jimmy Is wanted at Los Angeles and Bait Lake, and expects to close with, one or the other in a day or so. "Gunboat" fem'th, a 'husky scrapper who gained more or less fame around San Francisco about a year ago, writes from Coalinga, vmere he Is employed In tho oil fields, that he would like a chance to meet Jack Lester.

Wrestlers Return From Spokane Bearing One Medal, but Sore Over Vance Win Somewhat spirit-broken, the Mult nomah Amateur Athletic Club's delega tion of wrestlers to the Paclflo North west boxing and wrestling champion ships at Spokane returned last night No tale of woe was heard from any of them. All were not downcast Lawrence G. Duff returned wearing the welter weight" championship medal, while all the others, excepting Fabre, were run-ners-up In their respective divisions. Probably the most potent factor In quieting the athletes' spirts was the defeat of Eddie O'Connell In an exhi bition, by Frank Vance, instructor of the Seattle Athletic Club. Although O'Connell said nothing other than he hopes to meet the Seattle grappler again, hia pupils say that his defeat resulted from a "freak" hold and was not the result of "something new in the wrestling game," as Vanco styled it Although beaten, O'Connell was not downed. He was forced to quit because of ex cruciating pain resulting from Vance's torturing hold. According to the wres tlers, O'Connell had all the better of the match until by chance Vance got his freak toe hold. It Is believed by his friends that O'Connell can handicap Vance and beat him when in condition. For inexperienced men Multnomah made a good try. This was the first time that any of the grapplers ever participated in the Northwest cham pionships. Multnomah has been unfor tunate this year, having no really ex perienced men to send. Excepting Mc Carthy, all the others were mere youths Just graduating from the Inter mediate class. No boxers were sent Edgar Frank did not compete. Assurance was given by those clubs having representation at tho Spokane tourney that good representation would be seen in the National Amateur Ath letic Union championship wrestling to be held under the auspices of the Mult nomah Club In Portland In tho Spring or early Summer.

Dave Cockrell, of Oakland, has ex pressed a wllllnsmess to back Burns against Attell for any part of $10,000 and it is said that he has had some talk with McCarey in reference to such a bout.

(Special.) If you don't believe that Jimmy Brltt has an Idea in his head that ho wants to get back Into the boxing game, you should read an interview that he gave to one of the sporting writers of the London Evening Times. Jimmy was too wise to make the open declaration but dropped a hint and his friend, the interviewer, picked" up the thread -in Just the proper spot. "When we are through at Olympia (the Mcintosh Boxing Club)," said BrUt, "I may go into training again. It would be absurd for me to say that I am go ing back. No man, unless he were pretty boastful or fairly foolish could promise to return to the ring until he had proved that he was fit to take his place in the fighting line. "I shall go into training, however, and probably cross to New York to have a few 10-round. trials and It depends upon whether I acquit myself in these to my own satisfaction whether I go into tho ring again." After reading which, you've got to ad mit that hope springs eternal In the breast of tho fighting man. MORRIS DENIES FAKE CHARGE "White Man's Hope" Defies John son to Prove He Was Crooked.
