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

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.

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:

that any-player not satlstled to play
for Vernon next season can have his
release. Hap would not have many play
ers left If he were to pitch tents at the

ing there. The place formerly was a

O'Neill are true. "Tip" has developed

Jimmy Wlggs and "Runny" Pearcev

ATHLETES ARE GLOOMY
DEFEAT OF O'COXXELIi BLOW
TO MUITXOMAH 3IEX.
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.

of intensified athletics at the University
of Oregon comes Trainer Hayward's pro
posal to hold an lnter-fraternity track

the lack of training quarters as a result
of a recent storm which demolished tho
old running shed.

BURNS TO MEET POWELL
coffroth and perkixs 'to
TATjK terms today.
Abe Attell Might Bo Willing to Take
on Oaklander and Thus Pre
vent Proposed Bout.
KAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 29. (Special.)
With a view to matching; Frankie
Burns and Lew Powell on Tuesday,
February 28. Jack Perkins, manager of
Burns, will meet Jimmy Coffroth to
morrow afternoon when terms will be
discussed. Burns is quite willing to
hook up with Powell if the financial
Inducements are rigrht and there is only
one thins; that would interfere the
outside chance that Abe Attell might be
willing: to take on the Oaklander before
Tom McCareys club in Los Angeles.
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. Tho chances are, however, that
Attell would not care to listen to such
a match, particularly as he would have
to give away considerable weight and
that tho Saa Francisco-data wjll be

Burns has been around home In Oak

in good shape and it would be no
trouble for him to work into condition
for the latter part of February. Pow

if the Oakland contingent wants to
wager on Burns.

JIMMY BRITT TO "COMB BACK"
Native Son Has Idea He Can Get
Into Shape tor lights.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 29. (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.
