Further conservation or the nmateu

by the Amateur Athletic Union Is the
goal aimed at In tha proposed reforms,
and tha elimination of the athlete

at now.
Two rules In particular will be pro
ooaed. One will provide that an athlete
who leaves a club affiliated with tha
A nateur Athletic l"nlon must remain
unattached for two years before he will
ha iinhle to membership In a different
club.

The second provides that no student
In a college or university may belong
to an athletic club other than that of
hla own eolleve.
Other provisions suggested are that
na athlete may encase In a contest
under Amateur Athletic I'nlon rules
who has not previously filed with the
registration committee of his dletrlct
bona fMe certificate of four months
residence In that district, nor may he
enter a championship contest until he
has filed a certificate of residence of
six months in the district.
"The object of these rules." an officer
In the union who Is Interested In tbe
reforms suggested, said today. "Is to
remove the scandal threatening the
Amateur Athletic l"nlon every now and
then.

-There Is no denying- that m-on a
small club develops a good athlete
there ia a rush by the blc and wealthy
organizations to take him away from
the club.
"This means professionalism In
thinly-veiled form, elnce It gets clubs
bidding airatnst each other and enrour
aaee the athlete to lend himself to the
club making him the best offer. It
prevents the small club that brought
him out from profiting by the find.'
This condition Is found In athletic clubs
aa well as In colleges, and the condl

new rules are designed to make It Im
possible."

No. 14. William Harris.
(jnia" HARRIS, the third baseman
13 of the Portland team of 10J,
looked like one of the most prom
ising ball tossers wbo aver broke Into
the professional game, but he ruined
Ms own chances by evil associates and
his career on the diamond was short
lived.
Harris came to Portland In July,
190. and broke In under the most fa
vorable circumstances, for Danny Hupp
failed to satisfy as a guardian of tbe
difilcult corner, snd Fred Weed was
hardly experienced enough to hold
down that Job, though be did much bet
ter than Hupp.
For several weeks Harris played
grand ball and was generally touted
as a second Joe Tinker, for he batted
well and his fielding was often on tha
sensational order. He possessed a
great throwing arm. and many of tbe
old-time fans who will peruse tnl
Item will recollect some of the light
ning tosses made by this stocky young
athlete.
Toward the fag end .of the season
Harris berime associated with some
i uetlonMe characters about Port'
land, and this led to bis arrest on a
robbery charge. Through the Influ
ence of prominent fans, who took a
liking to him, his reUsase was secured
snd for a time he Justified the con
fidence placed in him. Later, however,
he went to Montana and drifted from
bad to worse, finally disappearing en

CITY BUILDING IS TOPIC
Dr. J. R. Wetherbtxa Explain Ben
nett Plana for Portland.'
At a meeting In the Meier St Frank
store yesterday afternoon the Bennett
plans for the Improvement of Portland
were explained In detail by Dr. J. B.
Wetherbee. a member of tbe commis
sion under supervision of which the
plans were prepsred.
lr. Wetherbee dwelt on the necessity
of definite plans In ctty-bulldlng. citing
laris and Berlin as Illustrations of this
principle. He said the laying out of
Paris by Louis XIV baa resulted in a
revenue of many millions of dollars an
nually from tourists who go to that
city largely to see Its boulevards and
parks and scenic beauties, undertaken
generations ago.
He referred to Washington. U. C as
the most beadtlful city in America, say.
Ing that It was the only city that had
been laid out according to a definite
plan. The mistakes made In the erec
tion of bulldlnaa there during the war
and the succeeding years, until the for
mation of a National commission, were
due. he said, to the shortsightedness o
officials In departing from the plans
of the architect engaged by Washington
to lay out the city.
Dr. Wetherbee pointed out various
Improvements that could have been
made In Portland years ago at trifling
cost If a definite plan for the Improve
ment of the city had been In existence,
and declared that these Improvements
should be undertaken now. before the
cost becomes prohibitive, as will be the
case as the city grows.

while the soldiers weighed about 160
to 1S. A crowd of 400 officers, sol
diers and civilians watched the evenly
matched contest until the last period
of the game, when night was falling
over the neld.
The game was for the championship
of the Army and of the Navy In the
Department of the Columbia, the sail
ors having defeated the land forcea on
Puget Sound.
Hancock, captain and coach, of the
sailors, was the brains of the team and
t was due to his fast and consistent
playing and headwork that the team
won.
Both teams repeatedly tried the for
ward pasa and the sailors proved their
training In this, but only two or three
times was It used successfully for any
gain. Hancock proved his University
of Pennsylvania training by his 40-yard
punts, while the soldiers punted but
ii to 36 yards.
ThoJgh outweighed, the soldiers put
up a plucky light. Once the soldiers'
goal was in danger and, instead of
punting out. they permitted the sailors
to make a touchdown. Again, when
the Infantrymen had the ball within

WARNER DOESN'T LIKE
TERM, "MATINEE IDOL
Star of "Alias Jimmy Valentine" Spurns Saccnarine "Mash Notes.
Women Spoil Many Good Actors, He Says.
BY LEONE CASS BAER.
I
T'3 not because H. B. Warner is a
hapiflly mart-led person and to
prove it displays the other half of
the Warner family In an old-fashlond
gold frame perched on his writing desk
that he goes on recofM to say all wo
men who stand around stage Entrances
or write letters to actors are foolish.
He always has believed It. long before
he married a non-professional, and now
be thinks so more than ever.
"Do you know." he said, as he Idly
watched the smoke curls float away
from his cigarette, "I'd give several
pennies to learn Just what particular
deficiency in gray matter cause women
to be stage hero worshippers. We
rather expect a certain class of men
to make rattlo brained asses of them
selves over the girls of the chorus, but
you don't find many men of real mettle
doing it-
"But all sorts of women write letters
to men on the stage. Some of them
are. In the vernacular of the theater,
'mash notes. Many ask for meetings
and a large percentage ask for photo
graphs. Now tell me what is It that
can make any woman desire to possess
the picture of a man she does not
know, never will know, and who in
many Instances, if she did know might
be the worst scoundrel alive.
, "Women whose letters show educa
tion and refinement, will write freely of
their Innermost thoughts to a man
whose actLng In some role has caught
their passing fancy. That he may be
happily wed never seems to occur to
them, . they seem to think that once
having read their letters, that actor
will immediately e obsessed with a
desire to know more of them.
"Matinee Idol" Despised Term.
"I'm not speaking of myself I de
spise the term matinee Idol and If any
girl ever stuck around a stage door to
see me pass by. I've never seen her.
No, I don't run by with my eyes shut,
but I'm Just not looking for stage
door admirers, snd so wouldn't see
them If they carried banners.",
"Is the custom entirely American?"
I asked the actor, who though all his
Interests lie over here, and he haa
married an American girl, still pays
allegiance to his native England.
"No," he quickly replied, "It Is a
condition peculiar to England as well.
Why. I've seen hundreds of women
packed outside a stage entrance wait
ing to see a stage hero of the hour
come out and enter his carriage. It
flatters some actors, keeps alive their
ego. I have been in the work so long
I know every bit of Its shams and arti
ficiality. My father, my father's father,
and my great grandfather were all
actors snd I have learned the business."
"Business or profession V I queried.
Acting la "Buslaesa."
"Business, work," he said simply. "It
is my employment. I spend a certain
number of hours daily at work, and the
rest of the time I'm a normal being and
follow the same line of recreation al
most any other business rrlan would.
I'd Just as soon be a sandwich man as
to be an actor off-stage as well as

He Is Just another Jimmy Valentine in
the third act, after he Isn't a convict

portancies of a bank cashier. He is
long and lean with a sense of muscu

like an Englishman and Is certainly
tremendously good looking. Best of all,
he doesn't seem to know it.
Mr. Warner says he had a real thrill
Monday afternoon. He was lunching
alone at his hotel. A party of two
dozen or more men were having a
merry time at an adjoining table. One
of them suddenly arose, and, bowing to
Mr. Warner, thanked him in behalf of
the entire party for the pleasure he
had given them the evening before In
his characterization of Jimmy Valen
tine at the Heillg.
"Now that really touched me," said
the actor. "It was sincere, spontaneous.

It, I would say it was sweet, and -I ap
preciated It. im glad when people
like my work. Just the same as a man
