KKRSOX IX GOOD GAME.
Three-to-Three Contest Filled With
Thrills With Jefferson Beaten
Vntil Near End.
Excitement and goala came fast In
the Portland Academy versus Jefferson
soccer game on the Columbua Field
yesterday, which ended in a -S tie.
The Academy boys opened tba scoring
when the game had been In progress a
quarter of an hour. Ten minutes later
came th most sensational bit of scor
ing seen this year. The Academy for
wards took the ball down the field in
a line to score number two. Straight
from the klckoff went Llnd. the Jeffer
son center, to reduce their lead. With
in another minute Portland Academy
had regained that lead, only to see th
gap lessened again a second later.
At half time th Portland Academy
bad a goal to the good, but th bot
tom end of the field had by that time
been reduced to a quagmire, not only
causing great difficulty to the backs
in kicking, but also giving the other
side the advantage of playing down
hill at the best time. Consequently It
wss not surprising to see Jefferson do
the greater part of the attacking, their
efforts being rewarded by the equaliser
with about ten mlnutea left for play.
Coe. Closse. Soden and Henny were
best for Portland Academy, with Bay

shining lights for Jefferson.

representatives In the series of North
western shoots being conducted by the
big powder companies. Tom Ware,
one of the leading Falls City amateurs,
offers from 1500 to $1000 that he and

"The schedule gives us ten weeks at

teama will be more evenly balanced
and the umplrea will be good," said
he. "Thla man Toman, is almost as

The Pacific Coast League's Innovation
of numbering the players for the Il
lumination of the fans seems to be
attracting a great deal of favorable
notice all over the East, where, despite
the costly and Intricate bulletin board
systems, there seems to be a field for
a similar arrangement.
The New York Sun puts In an urgent
plea for the adoption of the plan In
the major leagues.
"There Is not the slightest doubt
among those whose business necessi
tates a close following of big athletic
events that a similar custom should
be adopted In the East." says the Sun.
"It Is a safe prediction to say that not
SO per cent of the spectators at big
football, hockey and similar contests
know one player from another.
"The average programmes Issued at
such meets are of little use, for not
infrequently these programmes are
printed a week or ten days In advance
of the game and a score of circum
stances may arise to prevent the orig
inal line-up planned by captains or
managera from playing.
"What la needed in all forms of
popular sporting events today Is a
perfect system between scoreboard,
programme and spectators, whereby
every player can be distinguished, re
gardless of his position on the field of
play. Tbls reform or Innovation, call
It what you may. has been needed for
years and It appears to be the West
erners who are not afraid to give the
public what It wants these days, and.
If the demand from far-coast baseball
fans caused the putting into operation
of the plan. Eastern 'promoters, with a
far larger clientele, can afford to take
a similar course."
Aa the New York writer remarks
the men and women who pay their
money to witness varloua contests de
serve the deepest consideration from
those whose earnings depend upon the
popularity of the sport.
How frequently has your neighbor
asked for the name of the man at bat.
or the man who made the long run for
a touchdown? Getting closer W home
what is your first question upon enter
ing the grandstand too late to hear
the announcement of batteries? Ten to
one It is: "Who is pitching today?" or
"What are the batteries?" With each
man numbered according to the figures
opposite his name in the scorecards,
baseball will be exempt from thla draw
back. Ty Cobb, the rip-roarer from Roys
ton. Ga., believes that Vean Gregg is
a better pitcher than Marquard and
New York Giant fans are cachinnating
with all the mellowness of a cracked
graphaphone record. The Georgia
peach says:
"Marquard shoved great form last
season but did not make as good a
record aa Gregg, although he was with
the New York champions of the Na
tional League while Gregg pitched for
a club which escaped finishing in the
second division by only a few gamea
"The Giant southpaw won one more
game than the former Portland star
but his work In general la not up to
that of the Nap pitcher. Marquard
and Rucker are the star fllngers of the
National, and Gregg, and Plang of the
American."
Cobb's views are sound, for Marquard
worked for a team which played con
sistently all season. Gregg performed

Second Victory in Trapshoot
Tour Scored at Snohomish.
SAN FRANCISCO IS SECOND
High Wind Mars Flight of Clay Tar
gets and Makes High Scores
Impossible Spokane Team
Last as Usual.
SNOHOMISH. Wash., Jan. 24. (Spe
cial.) Portland representatives In the
Northwestern touring trap shooting
tournament were victorious in the shoot
held here under the auspices of the
Snohomish Gun Club this afternoon.
Pete Holohan and W. A. Robertson
captured th event by a score of 182
against 179 for the San Francisco
cracks.
This gives Portland two events of
the nine so far shot. San Francisco
has won the other seven, while Spo
kane is still without a victory. To
day's victory by Portland was due to
the consistent shooting of w. A. Rob
ertson, who went through the event
with a good score in every frame, and
while be was not high man for the
day, it was his steadiness in the last
frame which brought victory to his
side, as several of the other shooters
fell down at the finish.
The shoot was held under the most
adverse conditions encountered since
the tour began. A driving rain storm
prevailed throughout the afternoon
and as the competing teams lined up
for the last string a gale sprang up,
making It exceedingly difficult to
judge the flights of the clay pigeons
as hurled from the traps. It was this
wind which lost the match for the San
Francisco team and also which caused
the Spokane team to land third, for Ike
Fisher and Less Reld missed many tar
gets in the last 25 shot at.
Fred Wlllet and Hugh Poston tied
for first honor as individuals, as on
the day's shoot. Each missed only six
targets In the afternoon and these oc
curred mostly after the arising of the
wind. Holohan again broke 93.
The scores today were:
Portland, 182 Holohan, 93; Robert
son. 89.
San Francisco, 179 Wlllet, 94; Fish
er, 85.
Spokane, 177 Poston, 94; Reld, 83.
The teams shoot at Tacoma tomor
row and then lay off until Sunday,
when they compete at Aberdeen.

through the efforts of the late Rev. J.

and Embrle and Colonel "Tom" R. Cor
nelius.
It was from these waters, now closed,
