Mayor Disgusted With Ross-Mul-

night. Mayor H.H. Schott today declared
no more prize .nghts In North Yak

Earl Refuses to Let Washington
Flar With Keith as Official, Al
though He Is Choice of
Directors of League.
Th simmering Portland Interschol-
astlc League trouble-pot boiled over
yesterday afternoon i t Recreation Park
and. as a consequence, there was no
baseball game between Columbia Uni
versity and Washington High School.
Also the largest Interscholastic base
ball crowd of the season went home
disgusted with the antics of tha teams.
'A squabble over the umpire question
waa the snag upon which the game
came to grief. ' Each side la Indignant
and hints of crookedness In athletics
have been made. Trouble ts In the air
and at the next meeting of the Port
land Interscholastic Athletic Assocla
tlon director the "fuss" will be aired.
With both teams In uniform' and
ready, for the game. Coach Earl, of
Washington High School, refused, to
permit his men to play If Buck Keith
were to umpire. Keith was formerly
an umpire in tha American Association
League and lias had much other ex
perience, having umpired Interscholas
tic games before. Washington, how
ever, brought its own umpire raul Ir
win and wanted to proceed with the
game with him officiating. Columbia
would not permit this.
. Keith Named by Directors.
t'mplre Keith had been chosen to
ump're the gone at a conference of In
taracholattic League delegates at the
conclusion of the Interscholastic cross
country run held laet Saturday at Col
umbia University. In accordance with
the power vested In him. by .James
Bach, iresltlcnt of tha Interscholastic
League, t'mplre Keith called the game
at S .10. No Washington man stood up
tj the plate and after three strikes had
been called Umpire Keith forfeited the
gan to Columbia University by the
score of to 0.
Coach Karl and Manager Fenster
macher then had the Washington men
take the field and duplicate the per
formance with Umpire Irwin call'n? the
strikes. Irwin declared the gamo for
feited to Washington High School by
the score of 9 to 0. And thereby bangs
a tale.'
Keith was Instructed by a league del
egate to call the .Tame, while Umpire
Irwin waa Instructed to call the game
by Fenstermacher, of the Washington
High School baseball team. Fenster
macher said that President Bach had
no authority to employ Umpire Keith,
while he himself Instructed Umpire Ir
win to officiate. Fenstermacher Is not
a director of the league.
The entire rumpus came about as a
result of the league directors trying
to save money on '.ho umpires. At the
start of the year tnn men were
chosen as umplrn. Those were Ken
neth Fenton, Ed Rnkln and Vaul Ir
win, chosen In tho order named. Mr.
Fenton would hava the Job under nc
condition, while Mr. Rankin asked for
f a game. The league umpires had
been previously getting i a game and
the teams desired to keep down ex
penses.
Bach Is Authorized to Act.
When. Umpire Rankin made his terms
known It was decided to get a new
umpire. Last Saturday at Columbia
University all the directors of the
league, excepting the Allen Prepara
tory School delegate, were present and
th umolra situation was gone over.
It appeara that President Bach was In
structed to interview the old league
umpires to get aa available man. R. J.
Smith, of Jefferson High School, sug
gested Keith. It was not put In ihc
form of a motion, but offered as a sug
gestion. . This met with the approval
of those present and when it was sug
gested that President Bach confer witn
tha other delegates after having inter
viewed them the formality was diS'
pensed with. Acting as h was Instruct
ed. President Bach hired tne umpire.
Coach Earl said yesterday that tne
reason he would. not permit his men
to' clay was that Principal Herdraan,
of Washington High School, would not
permit his team to play it j.eitn um
pired. Fenstermacher said that Bach
had no authority to hire the umpire.
Bach sas that he was Instructed to
hire Keith. ' At Saturday's meeting,
when Keith was aald to nave Deen
chosen, were Delegates Smith, of Jef
ferson: Parker, of Vancouver; Thaxter,
of Portland Academy; Veatch, of Wash
ington: McKlnley. or Lincoln, ana
Bach, of Columbia.
Trouble In the interscnoiastio
League has been brewing since the at
tempt to oust Columbia from the league
last Winter following the football con
troversy between Lincoln and Colum
bia. A meeting will probably be called
this week to settle this latest difficulty
In Interscholastic athletics.

ROADSTERS IN TEST
Williams' Team to Play Aggies
at Corvallis Today.
Fifteen Players to Make Trip to
Valley Town Those' Xeft at
Home Will Hold tTsual
Practice In Afternoon. .
Nick Williams, manager of the Portland
Northwestern League baseball team,
and a portion of his "young army" of
Rradsters." will meet the Oregon Agri
cultural CoUege team on the campus of
that institution at Corvallis thle afternoon.
This will be the first game Manager
Williams and his team has played away
from Portland, and he facetiously an
nounces that he hopes to get his ball
tossers accustomed to playing on foreign
territory. ' aa . the Portland team Is
scheduled 16 out of 24 weeks of the sea
son on the road.
Manager Williams expects to try out
Pitcher Frink. the soldier phenom from
Ban Francisco, and if this likely-looking
twlrler shows what he has had in the
practices thus far in this afternoon's
game be will- undoubtedly cinch himself
job. All tne players nave remariteo. ai
Frink's showing, and the prophecy is out
that he will be the star pitcher .of tne
Northwestern League if he can uee his
stuff" in regular games.
Fifteen to Make Trip.
In addition to Manager Williams and
Pitcher Frink, the following players will
make the trip to Corvallis: pitchers.
Bheehy, Tonneson and Berger; catchers.
Harris and Welnnolt: lnnemers, uasey.
Mundorff, Waters and Mensor, and out
fielders, Speas, Miller, Thompson and.
Stovall. With this array of talent Wil
liams .expects thoroughly to try out the
players.
"I have so many good players that I
am afraid to make any selections right
now," said Manager Williams yester
day, "for all of the boys are playing
gilt-edged ball and I cannot make room
for aU of them, which makes it a hard
matter to decide whom to keep and
whom to let go.
'I can only retain three outfielders
with this club, and I have six good ones
fighting for the Jobs, so you can see
what a task it ts going to be to make
the final seleotions. I expect to carry
at least six pitchers, and may possibly
have room for seven, and I now have 12
pitchers, all showing In great form." '
The surplus players not taken to Cor
vallis by Williams will work out this
morning and this afternoon at the
Vaughn-street grounds with Hugh Mc
Credle and George Ort directing the
workout. The players are all ambitious
to make the team and work with a vim
and vigor creditable to the energy of the
manager who seems to have instilled
confidence in all of them.
Perle Oasey is working with a vim that
means much-to Nick Williams' team.
The star second baseman is one of the
best balltossers who ever played on the
Coast. His batting and fielding for Wil
liams' team thus far has been most
pleasing to the manager as well as to
the host of followers of the popular ex
captain of the Champion Beavers of the
past eeason. With Casey in great form
the "Roadsters" will enjoy a great sea
son. He is a player who is out to win
all the time and is one of the quickest
men in a minor league to take advantage
of a weakness whenever an opposing club
shows signs of being unsteady.
