Pittsburg is again to act as host for the junior and senior track. and field championships, which proved such a success there last Pall. The dates announced are Sep tember 20 and 21. Portland followers of amateur sports will be particularly Interested, because the crack Multno mah Club pole vaulter, Sam Bellah, is expected to participate. Bellah tried tor the National cnam plonship in the vault there last year and has been importuned to go East again. A Pittsburg newspaper is pay ing the expenses of the athletes, utner famous vaulters who will attend are Wright, the Dartmouth champion; H. S. Babcock, an Olympic star; uaraner, the Yale golfer, who had the world' record for a few days; E. C. Cook, of Cleveland; Coyle, of Chicago, and B. Wagoner. The above constitutes a brilliant ensemble of aviators and I hope to par ticipate," said Bellah last night. "I'll go either to Pittsburg or to Stockton Cal., where the Native Sons are stag ing an admission day meet on beptem ber 7. TheCentral Association holds the auspices over this meet, but Pete Gerhardt is endeavoring to have the scope broadened so as to include th North Pacific and the South Pacific Associations, thus making it virtually a Coast championship affair. If Gerhardt succeeds, Martin Haw kfns and myself will both attend an I'll not go East at all, although I like to." The Multnomah Club vaulting star, by the way, thinks that Wright has just about established the high-water mark for the pole event, differing rad ically with those who predict a steady elevation of the record, perhaps up to 15 or 20 feet, a decade hence.' Four 'or five years ago the world record was shy of 11 feet, whereas now It s up around 13 feet 2 inches, but that remarkable progression I attribute al most entirely to the introduction the bamboo pole," said Sam last night. as he warmed a huge divan n the palatial Wingud M Club parlors. Lee Scott, a Stanford boy, held tne record at 12 feet, 10 7-8 inches for two or three years until this Summer, when Gardner and Wright both bettered his mark. But I knew Scott when he couldn't make 10 feet 6 inches. When Lee adopted the bamboo rod, he lmme diately leaped up the standards nearly two feet above his former notch." - - m a s Jim Thorpe, the Carlisle athlete. Is to the copper-colored race what Booker Washington is to the ebony. He s always in the headlines. His perform ance Monday in New York, when he won the all-around amateur -champion ship of America by scoring 7476 points, or 91 better than Martin Sheridan's record, should, however, be the signal for a general Fourth of July holdover. It eclipses even his Stockholm decath ion and pentathlon performances. A perusal of the Ust of events and the scoring system shows this. The events are ten in number, as follows: 100-yard dash, high and broad Jumps, pole vault, 16-pound hammer and shot. 56-pound weight, 120-yard high hur dles, half mile walk and mile run. The scoring method is simple. Each per formance-is judged by the world's rec ord as it stood at the time the all arounds were first staged, the perfect score being 1000 for each event or 10, 000 for the grand total. No champion has ever approached 7500 but Thorpe closely brushed It with 7476. Thorpe is surely a study in natural ceaverness. He stands 6 feet, 10 Inches tall, tips the crossbeam at 175 pounds and is 23 years old. The calves of his legs look too "planoy" for a sprinter, but he can negotiate the century in 10 1-5. He is a marvel in everything he takes up on gridiron, diamond and cinder path. He is one of the five greatest football men ever developed and is so expert at baseball that both Boston and Pittsburg are angling for his major league contract. The redskin hlghjumped' 6 feet, 2 inches at Stockholm, is able to clear 23 feet in the broad jump and can put the 16-pound globule about 45 feet from the circle. He's a pretty good "In jun." all right. - s . Johnny Kane's peculiar stand at the plate set many tongues wagging dur ing the Vernon series on the Portland lot. Johnny "chokes" his stick more than any other batter in the Coast cir cuit. The writer asked the midget slugger last week how he contracted this habit of grasping the bat up to ward the middle. "In a peculiar- manner." replied Kane. "When a kid in Chicago, I always bat ted crosaj-handed, holding the bat by the very end. About the high school stags the boys Induced me to change my style and bat with the right hand above the left. I switched over, but found I couldn't swing the bat at all unless I balanced it up about the mid dle. Then I tried this "choking," found it satisfactory and have been batting that way ever since." Johnny takes a terrific poke at the sphere. Despite the fact that he weighs less than 140 pounds, the ex-Cub ranks next to Heitmuller in extra base hit ting In the Coast league. Kane would likely be in the big leagues yet but for a slip in coaching judgment. He motioned a runner on to third base one afternoon and when the runner was caught by 10 feet. Man ager Frank Chance raved like a "Mad Mullah." Twenty-four hours later Kane was notified to report to Vernon. Butte to Retain Matties. CINCIXNATL O., Sept. S. The" Na tional Baseball Commission today ruled that because tha St. Louis Nationals failed to comply with the rules per taining to the transfer of a player, its claim against Butte for the service of Player Matties was disallowed. Butte was directed to forward 1344 to St. Louis for Player Dell, who had been sold outright to Butte. Butte did not deny this debt, but refused to give up the services of Mathea.

PRESENT SERIES IS VITAL Champions All Playing Ball to Win and With Their Leader Think Seattle Is Team They , Have to Beat. Give us four of seven games from Portland this week, or five in eight. th latter number is played, and Vancouver will yet win the 1912 North western League pennant" The above was the optimistic out burst last night of K. Paul Brown, nrostiriont-manaaer-caDtain of the Van couver club, anent its chances lor the second championship in two years. 'W. are only three full games from Spokane," Brown had it rightly figured out last night, "and if the break is right during the next four weeks w, will win the pennant witn a game or twn to snare. Of course it will be a close tweak, but every man on the lub Is cocksure that we are going to win out, and that spirit is going to do much towards winning ball games which will boost us to the top. "I believe Seattle Is the club Van couver must beat to win the pennant. Seattle plays only six more games on the road and of the four series remaining-. Including this week, two are against the weakened Tacoma club, one I against Victoria ana ine otner iwu eralnst Portland. On the other hand, Spokane plays Victoria this week, then plays a long series on tne rornano. field, takes on Tacoma at " Spokane, and winds up the season against my club at - Vancouver. If tnat aoesn t give Seattle a big edge over Spokane am no good at figures. "As for Vancouver, we finish the series with Portland, then play at Ta come next week and wind up against ictoria and bpokane at home. This schedule Is better than Spokane's, and trifle weaker than Seattle s, but we are going out after them strong and are certainly far from out of the run- ing." Brown has sold two players to major league clubs. Pitcher Clark to the Chi cago Americans for S2800 and "Lefty" Gervais to the Boston Nationals for tlSOO. and expects to lose Pitchers Schmutz and Byrara and Catcher Sepul veda by major league drafts. The Vancouver boss thinks Sepul- veda is the best catching prospect the orthwestern League has ever had and predicts a glorious future for him. The California lad is only 18 years old, but has improved wonderfully this season. Vancouver will be joined by another' outfielder this week. Freer is the name of the recruit. He hails from Wlnni peg, the Canadian club handled by Jim Brown, a brother of the Vancouver owner. Jim thinks Freer, a husky left- handed hitter, is one ot the finds of the season and Bob will give him a tryout during tne next lour weeks. While the schedule calls for only six games this week, one double-header and probably two will be played, the games being postponed from the last Vancouver series in the north. Brown is willing to play one double-header, while the second is not yet settled upon. Brown and Watkins are trying to switch the Tacoma-Vancouver series of next week to Vancouver, instead of at Tacoma and Seattle. If this is con summated it will be necessary to start a Sunday double-header here about 1:30 o'clock. with a time allowance for the second game, in order that the Canucks may reach Vancouver in time to open on Monday.
