CHICAGO, Nov. 11. (Special.)
Fielder A. Jones, president oi me
Northwestern Leafcue. probably will
aek the National Asocat!on or Pro
fesslonal Baseball Clubs at Its meeting-
tn Milwaukee tomorrow to raise tne
classification of his league. Jones
probably will be disappointed, however,
as the magnates of the Pacific Coast
League while expressing willingness
for him to present his claim, will not
support him.
Jones conferred with Cal Ewlng. of
San Francisco, and other Coast mag
nates today. Fielder told them what
he wanted and the Coast League own
ers told him to ko ahead and ask the
baseball body for a higher rating.
They told Jones they had no objection
to his bringing the question up before
the body, but they made it plain that
they would not vote in favor of the
proposition.
Trouble Is Predicted.
Jones said tonight that ha would
bring the matter up - tomorrow. He
may, however, change his mind before
that time, as the Coast magnates inti
mated there would be trouble if the
classification of his league was raised.
The Coast magnates pointed out that
the Northwestern League was invading
Its territory at Portland now only with
the consent of the larger body. Ewing
nd the others made it plain to Jones
that if the baseball body did Taise the
classification of the Northwestern
League, the latter organization would
have to withdraw from Portland.
-I realize," said the Northwestern
president, "we have no territorial
rights in Portland and that the Coast
League has the say. At the same time,
I can't understand why there should
be any objection from Kwtng and his
associates."
Baum told Fielder Jones In reply
that so far as the Coast League was
concerned, the Northwestern League
could make the request, although the
Coasters would not back them up.
Rain la "W illing Oaly.
"We are quite willing." said Baum.
"to allow the Northwesterners to pre
sent their proposition on the floor, but
we are certain they will be turned
down. Naturally the Coast League
does not want their rating raised and
1 don't suppose we would vote for it.
In the first place class AA leagues can
not draft from class A leagues where
the majors have already taken a man.
Again the draft price will be higher.
Last, and more Important, even count
ing Portland, they haven't the neces
sary million population and we can
not afford to break the rules we have
made. I don't believe they have a
chance for success."
Jones didn't say whether he would
put the matter before the National As
sociation, and It is likely that he will
prefer to discuss the question further
with his own league directors. It looks
as if the Jones-Dugdale combination is
barreled. Some of the Chicago news
paper boys have tried to make It ap
pear that Jones Is here as a candidate
for some management job. possibly New
York, but the Oregonian only laughs at
the suggestion.
o Limit Most Approved.
Unofficially the Coast League Is
about' ready to admit some sort of a
salary limit is likely to be forced upon
them, although they would prefer no
limit at all. There Is a rule in or
ganized baseball to the effect minor
It-agues must establish a salary limit,
the same to be approved by the Na
tional commission.
. President Barrows, of the Interna
tional League, says the early report
sent to the Coast of a $2000 salary limit
per man per year Is altogether Incor
rect. It Is now proposed to establish
a salary limit of $6000 per month per
club with not more than $400 per
month per man. This would suit the
Coasters, as they could stay well with
in the limit. In fact. It is said, that
there was no Individual salary last
season above the $400 mark. Possibly
some compromise to that effect will be
arranged.
It was a quiet day so far as Coast
League directors were concerned. Hap
Hogan spent the forenoon enjoying a
60-mile automobile ride around the
boulevards encircling Chicago, and was
so taken with the dexterity of the col
ored chauffeur that he signed a con
tract with the boy to go to California
and drive Hap's new car and act as
general factotem.
Frank Navin, president of the Detroit
club, who Is In Chicago and will go to
Milwaukee, has a good word to say for
Oscar Vltt
McGreevy to Meet Baum.'
"The San Francisco boy was sick
most of last season," he explained, "but
showed good form in the Spring and is
certain of a berth with the club next
year. I don't know yet where he will
be placed, but chances are at third
base."
Tonight the Far Westerners spent
their time at one of the local theaters.
Karly tomorrow morning they will
leave for Milwaukee, where they will
spend the three days set aside for the
meeting. Milwaukee has promised the
baseball people a royal welcome, and
all sorts of festivities are being
planned.
Eugene McGreevy talked over the
long-distance phone today with Presi
dent Baum and arranged a later meet
ing. Possibly McGreevy would like ta
return to the Coast, although no inti
mation was given to that effect by
Panm.
In spite of rumors flying around
Chicago that Harry Wolverton might
be signed up by Cal Ewing to manage
the San Francisco club next season, J.
Cal absolutely denies the story, and
says, as he has said all along, Billy
Reld'y will be .manager of the 1913
Seals. The fact that Wolverton was
released by the New York Americans
and his success with the Oakland club
the year before, doubtless was respon
sible for the story, although there
seems to be no foundation to it.
Reidr to Be Manaacer.
"Reidy . hasn't signed a contract,"
?aid Ewing in commenting on the re
port, "but that is not significant. He
probably will not be asked to sign
one. All the samehe Is to be man
ner of the club, and will be given free
hand next Spring in order to show
what he can accomplish. I don't know
anything about Wolverton and have
not been In communication with him."
In fact, no one of the baseball people
in Chicago seems to know the real In
wardness of Wolverton's break with
Karrell over the management of the
Highlanders. Also, it is not known
what Harry intends to do next season.
The Coasters who are here do not be
lieve Oakland will throw over Mitse,
who has been named for the berth, but
they hint oerhaDS Jack Atkin, of Sac
ramento, may make Wolverton an of
fer. The Senators are still without a
manager, and in the West, if not the
East. Wolverton has demonstrated his
worth. The only light on Wolverton's
New York break was given hy an ex
ecutive of one of the International
League clubs, who remarked:
Charlie Irwim Blamed.
"I suppose Wolverton was released
because he failed to make good. There
Isn't a man In the world who can make
good as long as Charlie Irwin is real-
manager of the team and is also play
ing first base." '
From which comment it is easy to
surmise Wolverton -had no bed of roses
during the past few months.
Ewing took enough time away from
the board of arbitration meetings to
day to sign a new first sacker. The new
man is Roy E. Peterson, who tried out
with the Sox and was hardly heavy
enough timber. Most of his work has
been in semi-professional circles around
Chicago. Jimmy Callahan has given
Peterson a good guarantee to the San
Francisco magnate.
Asked what he Intended to do with
Del Howard. Ewing replied:
"Del would Just as soon play In the
outfield if we can dig up a crack first
baseman for the team."
Berry Make Deals.
Henry Berry made the first of his
contemplated dea's this morning when
he purchased Cy Seymour from the new
International League. Seymour, as
fans will recall, did service with Cin
cinnati and later with New York. First
of all. he was a pitcher, and when his
arm failed him went Into the outfield
because of his hitting strength. A cou
ple of years ago he was turned back to
the minors and Newark secured him
from Baltimore. The worst thing
against the Angel Is his age. 38, and
lack of speed, but he Is hitting well
and Berry proposes to use him as a
cleanup hitter in place of the late Helt-
muller.
Seymour has not yet been notified of
his change of base, but It Is not thought
there will be any trouble on that score.
He batted around .300 for Newark last
season and the man who sold him has
bet Berry that Cy will do better than
.300 for the Coasters.
frte Daley Traded.
Berry completed an Important deal
late tonight when he traded Pete Daley
to Connie Mack, of the Philadelphia
Americans, for three players, the most
important of which is Carl Maggart.
outfielder, who was with Oakland a
year ago. The other men who will Join
the Angels In this proposition include
Crahbe. a pitcher from Davenport In
the Three 1 League, and Fahey, an in
flelder. Fahey Is a college man and halls
from Dartmouth, where he was cap
tain and shortstop. Fahey Joined the
Athletics last Summer and Mack claims
he Is the best college prospect he has
seen for some time. Maggart Is anxious
to return to the Coast and it looks as
If Berry has made a mighty fine deal
for himself. In fact Henry Is hailed as
some trader. In addition. Berry has
purchased Jackson, a right-handed
pitcher, from St. Joe In the Western
League. He is rated a good man.

National Association Members Gath
er at Milwaukee, "Wis.
CHICAGO, Nov. 11. Two hundred
men Identified with major and minor
leagues left Chicago ' tonight for Mil
waukee to attend the annual meeting
of the National Association of Profes
sional Baseball Leagues, which opens
there tomorrow. The board of arbitra
tion, which has been in session here
deciding disputed cases, finished its
work tonight.
Discussions on salary limits and re
classifications of leagues will be the
principal questions for settlement at
the Milwaukee convention. Fielder
Jones, ex-manager of the Chicago club
In the American League and now presi
dent of the Northwestern League, may
present the claims of his organization
for a higher classification from class B
to claws A. Jones says that under the
present plan with all players subject
to draft it is impossible to keep the
clubs Intact from season to season.
He argues that It is an injustice for
clubs in cities like Nashville, Mont
gomery and Mobile to be able to draft
players from Seattle, Portland and Ta-
coma clubs. Three players from the
Northwestern League were drafted by
the Southern League this season.
More than thirty disputes were re
ferred to the Milwaukee meeting of the
board of arbitration. Following are
among the cases decided today:
Application for a reinstatement by
Oscar Jones, San Francisco, disallowed.
Dayton, Ohio, against Seattle, claim
for $150 allowed.
Player Barrkamp, claimed by Seattle
and Calgary, awarded to Seattle.
Claim of Player Kelly against Salt
I.ake City, allowed.
Claim of Player Becker against Hele
na, disallowed.

recorded.
Paul Adams, track star, has been

BIG CLUBS ARE DISCUSSED
Buddy Says Walter Johnson Is
Greatest Pitcher in World and
Declares Cobb Most Remark
able Player Ever to Be Seen.
BT ROSCOB FAWCETT.
Tanned to a leather brown and 15
pounds lighter than when he plunked
his last home run over the Portland
right field fence a year ago. Buddy
Rvan. Cleveland gardener, returned to
Portland yesterday, accompanied by
Eddie Mensor. with wondertui taies
of a thrilling bear hunting expedition
Into the wooly and mountainous re
cesses Inland from West Fork in South
ern Oregon.
The two bagged one black bear and
several deer. In precisely the same lo
cality that Gregg. Abies, Rodgers and
Kyan hunted last Winter. But mat
wasn't the remarkable feature of the
trio. The two mighty hunters returned
unusual, though it may sound with
out running afoul of a band of rattle
snakes; without once having to flee
from an infuriated mountain lion, and
without finding it necessary to bounce
any of Clark Griffith's rocks off a
wounded bear's proboscis.
There's a story for the telegraph
wires that Is something really new.
Bear Caught In Trap.
The boys did have a narrow escape In
a flatboat on the Rogue River when
said scow stopped for a moment in the
social whirl of an eddy. The Cleveland
and Pittsburg outfielders attribute their
escape to the fact that the boat didn't
tip over. On another occasion Mensor
insisted he had seen a polar bear prowl
ing around the camp, but that has been
accounted for by Ryan, who says the
hear turned pale from fright.
"We didn't shoot the one bear we
got," admitted the popular Buddy, as
he renewed acquaintances with Hig
glnhotham and Walter Doane, both of
whom he had met at San Francisco a
few weeks ago. "We taught that In
a trap, but let me tell you, we bagged
lots of that almost extinct animal spe
cies, called the cornbeerhash. A great
many peoplo have a wrong idea of this
succulent antelope. It Is shot prin
cipally In t)lg herds and when skinned
with a can opener and warmed In a
frying pan makes good eating. Large
flocks of potatoes were also encoun
tered In the West Fork district. We
found them difficult to capture, as when
winged they burrow In the ground and
can be coaxed out only by whittling
like a roast "possum."
Good Pitchers Encountered.
Buddy's personal appearance does not
belie his words, for if he were to re
port for Spring training tomorrow all
the conditioning he would have.be
do would be to take a drink of water
and pick up a bat. He weighs only
170 pounds, against 186 when he wore
a Portland uniform, but is the picture
of good health.
"Yes. I like the American League bet
ter than the Coast," said he, answering
a storm of inquiries. "I didn't hit as
good as I hit the last year out here,
but I think I'll do better in 1913. The
pitching up there is a lot better. In the
Coast League one finds about two good
men in each club and can fatten his
average on the rest. Up there all are
good pitchers, with some better.
"I consider Walter Johnson, of Wash
ington, the greatest In the world,"
added Buddy. "Walsh, of Chicago, Is
a wonder, but I know I got eight or
nine hits off him to two or three off
Johnson. Cleveland has the makings
of a great team, but the Naps are shy
on pitchers, with Gregg the only real
good bet we have."
Home Rna Counted.
Buddy knocked out 23 homers during
hi 1911 season with Portland, leading
the Coast circuit, but last year his
total was one. The one, however, will
long be remembered, as It was a fa
mous swat over the Cleveland right
wall with three men on the bases,
Washington opposing.
"Am mighty sorry to hear of Harry
Wolverton's release by New York." con
tinued the stocky Irishman. "He had
an awful bum outfit to work with and
I thought would be given another
chance next year. I do not take any
stock in the published reports of Ping
Bodie going back to the minors. Man
ager Callahan, of Chicago, is a hard
man to work for and ho and Ping had
frequent spats, but I don't think any
American League club will waive on
him. Ping played great ball against
us."
Ryan and Higgenbotham engaged in
a heated argument over the respective
merits of the American and National
Leagues. Higgenbotham, a former Cub,
contends that the National is faster,
while Ryan points to ' the Individual
stars in the younger organization, Cobb,
Jackson, Speaker, Walsh, Johnson,
Gregg, and others as supporting his
theory. ' '
Commenting on Cobb the Clevelander
tells an amusing story of his prowess.
Last Spring, after the Detrolts had
been on the training trip two weeks.
Cobb Joined them at New Orleans. He
batted against Klawitter in his first
game and as he hadn't seen a baseball
tor months was set down without a hit.
"Cobb Most Wonderful Player."
"Three hits for me today," proclaimed
the newspapers the next morning, under
Cobb's signature, and the fans flocked
to the park to kid him. First time up
Cobb was binged on the wrist and took
first. Second time up he hit the right
field fence for three bases. Third time
up he hit the left field fence for three
bases, and, on his fourth excursion to
the plate, -the pitcher walked him.
"No three hits for you today." kidded
several of the crowd. But the tigers
then engaged in a batting feat and
Cobb came up a fifth time. "Look out
for a bunt." he hollered down to Hen
drlx on third, and Hendrix crept in.
Cobb bunted, but the ball rolled foul.
"I'm going to bunt again," he cau
tioned Hendrix, as the crowd rose
aghast to watch the performance. Bunt
he did and Heridrix had no more chance
of catching him at first than I have of
cutting ice on the river Styx after I
pass away," declared Buddy. "Cobb is
the most remarkable player the world
will ever see."
Both Ryan and Mensor plan to rest
up in Portland for the next four
months. Irve Higglnbotham has fig
ured on joining the San Diego team in
the Southern California Winter League,
but upon receipt of a hurry-up telegram
from Tom Downy yesterday, he decided
to forego the once-per-week stuff and
will remain here during the Winter

When the Multnomah Club takes the
field against the University of Oregon
on Multnomah Field Thanksgiving Day
in the annual Fall blue-ribbon event of
the football year. Captain Hurlburt will
have one of the strongest elevens that
ever graced a local gridiron.
Nig" Borleske, the famous W hitman
all-star, now coaching Lincoln High,
turned out for his first practice Sunday
afternoon. Dudley Clarke, veteran
standby, is also a regular tn practice,
while Jack Hickson, star end, is finally
in shape for active participation.
The addition of Borleske and Clarke
to the backfleld will likely cause a
general rearrangement. Walter Keck,
all-star backfleld plunger of the Ore
gon Aggies a couple of seasons back,
will probably be shifted to end, with
Clarke, Wolff and Borleske as halves
and Hurlburt as fullback.
Keck is a remarkable all-around ath
lete and it is planned to utilize his
basketball ability in the catching of
forward passes on right end. He will
also be swung around for wide end
runs. Hickson will hold down the
other end. Calllcrate, rated as the
greatest end that ever wore the scarlet
and white, is still suffering from a bad
leg. so may not get into the Thanksgiv
ing game.
Tackle O'Rourke is nursing an ex
ceedingly lame back, but it is hoped to
have him in condition for the Turkey
day clash.
The University of Oregon team Is ex
pected to show its strongest front of
the year against Multnomah. Coach
Pinkham has his men placed after con
siderable necessary experiments and
believes his boys will give Washington
a great battle the coming Saturday.
Oregon has perhaps the heaviest team
in the conference. In weight Oregon
and Multnomah will be pretty evenly
matched.
In training and condition, of course.
Oregon will have the edge, but the long
experience of the club men is expected
to give them the edge. By comparing
scores, Multnomah is ' stronger than
Washington. The Winged "M" eleven
beat the Oregon Aggies 9 to 0 with
Hauser in the game, whereas Washing
ton was decidedly fortunate to win
out 9 to 3 after Hauser had been ruled
out for ball playing.
With Hauser playing the Aggies
would undoubtedly have licked Wash
ington. Hauser witnessed the Whitman-
Washington State game at Spokane
Saturday. The Cheyenne brave was
doing scout work for Coach Sam Dolan
of the Oregon Aggies and his informa
tion will be put to use by the great
Corvallls "mentor in the coming test
with Whitman on Saturday.
Quite a number of enthusiasts are
planning to go down to Corvallls. On
comparative scores Whitman should
win. Whitman walloped Washington
State 30-0, and Washington State won
from the Aggies 10-9. But, following
their remarkable battle against Wash
ington, the Aggies are not going toMle
without a terrific struggle. Coach
Dolan's pupils showed themselves ex
cellently coached Saturday. If Doble
had anything on them It wasn't re
vealed on the field.
Two great tackles will figure promi
nently in the Whitman- Aggie game

himself aligned against Cleman, of
Whitman, on the other wing. Both are
about the same weight, between 180
and 185 pounds.
Whitman will have a slightly heavier
backfield than the Aggies and It is here
the experts expect Hahn's men to show
a superiority. If anywhere. The two

COLLEGE GAME III DOUBT
CLUB DI RECTORS TO ACT OX

Prediction Freely Made That Sleet
ing Hoped for Cannot Be Ar
ranged Satisfactorily.
While the fate of the 1912 University
of Oregon-Oregon Agricultural . Col
lege gridiron bout will not be definitely
decided until the Multnomah Club di
rectors meet tonight, the sporting pub
lic may tak"e it for granted that the
Oregon schools will not meet on the
football field this season.
Dr. Stewart, of the Aggies, and Grad
uate Manager Geary, of the university,
left Portland Sunday conceding that an
unexpected stand of the Multnomah
Club directors had upset plans which
were to start with a game between the
elevens at Eugene November 23.
Confident that the Winged "M" au
thorities would cancel the Multnomah-Club-Oregon
game of 1913 on Thanks
giving day and permit of Aggie-Oregon
games on Multnomah Field for two or
three years, representatives of the two
institutions finally agreed upon a three
year schedule. But to their dismay, thi
club directors met Friday night, follow
ing the college conference, and ex
pressed themselves strongly against
giving up the Multnomah Club Thanks
giving day games. This put an end to
negotiations and there seems little
likelihood that a game can be played
this season, although the question
comes finally before the directors to
night, "It is not a matter of vital Importance
to Oregon athletics that Multnomah
Club give up ' its Thanksgiving day
games, and I do not feel like shatter
ing tradition to give the schools
Thanksgiving day, when so many other
dates are available." declared one prom
inent member of the board last night.
Briefly, the representatives of the
schools had arrived at a compromise
calling for sa game at Eugene on No
vember 23 of this year and on Multno
mah Field on Thanksgiving day of 1913
and 1914, with a chance of play In Port
land in 1915 If desirable. The Aggies
wanted to sign. for four years in Port
land, with the university people hold
ing out for two. The compromise
would have been a Eugene victory, at
the expense of giving up its annual
Multnomah Club game, while the Cor
vallis people would have had what they
were after, at least three games in
Portland, with added receipts and pres
tige. Yacht Chtb Folk to Dance.

Guns and Cartridges
In all cones and climates and for game of any
size, Winchester guns and cartridges are used
by the majority of successful hunters, as they
have found them reliable and accurate in action
and shooting, and strongly and substantially
built. Then, too, they axe made in all calibers
and styles, suiting every taste and shooting re
quirement. The example of such experienced
hunters as Roosevelt, Peary, Whitney and many
others who use Winchester guns and cartridges,
is a safe one to follow. No matter what kind of
shooting you expect to do, investigate the Win
chester line before buying, and you will surely
find a Winchester to suit- Use Winchester
cartridges in Winchester guns, as they are made
for each other and hence give the best results.

WAITERS at The Imperial Grill don't
"rush" you and "grab" your plate
away prematurely; and rarely
never if Phil Metschan or his head -waiter
fever catch them at it do they "size one
up" and serve one according to the size of
a tip that may be forthcoming. Phil
Metschan doesn't like the tipping system
anyway, and would gladly welcome a rigid
law or other means prohibiting it generally.
