TIIE MORXING OREGOXIAX, WEDNESDAY. JANUARY 22, ,1913. 8 v. FANS HAVE ENOUGH BASEBALL G055IP Nick Williams, Bitten by Dog; Reported by "Chair Warm ers" as Crippled for Life. AGNEW SENDS IN CONTRACT "Retired"' Pitcher Guarantees Ap pearance in Colt T7niform--Peters, 1912 Holdout, Agrees to Play With 1913 Beavers. Nick Williams has been crippled so badly that he will play no more base ball. "Toots" Agnew. who "retired" in October, has sent in a signed con tract and a letter guaranteeing- his appearance at the Colt training camp. j D. Peters, Trt-State Infielder, who refused to play with the Beavers in 1912. announces his intention of break ing back into theVame. William Un derwood, of Cnderwood. Wash., wishes to provide talent to furnish Portland 9 with a Northwestern League pennant winner next season. The foregoing conglomeration of news, alarming, pleasing and amusing, aroused baseball headquarters from its Winter lethargy yesterday. A "friend" imported the lamentable particulars of the Williams incident over the tele phone, but the JlcCredies. the 'Judge" and Walter, are straining auricular nerve meaning hearing apparatus in an effort to discover the identity of said friend. Manager Nick, of the Colts, in separating canine combat ants, had his left hand severely lacer ated by the fangs of a fox terrier, but injuries which will be healed within a week or two. in passing down gossip row. had become so serious that ampu tation of the member to prevent death from hydrophobia was reported immi nent. Nick was still bending over the books down on a waterfront grain dock yesterday afternoon, even though his left arm was encased in bandages. He indulged in a good laugh at the yarn which had been circulated regard ing him. but admitted that he had the cuts cauterized to prevent hydrophobia. "I was only bit up a little, but you never can tell about these dog bites, so I was taking no chances, and had the wounds cauterized," explained the blond boss of the Colts. Williams was trying to protect the offending terrier from the jaws of Terry McKune's bulldog when the un--grateful animal fastened Its teeth in Nick's hand. Fearing that the terrier would be killed by the bulldog. Nick Jumped to the fore and attempted to grab the bull, lie grabbed too soon, or too late, and received the brunt of an assault meant for the bulldog. . -Toots" Agnew, along with .Bill Bloomfleld. announced his retirement from baseball at the close of the 1912 campaign. He was going to stick to the contracting business, while "Par- - son" Bill was to confine his athletic . efforts to Juggling grain sacks on his - dad's dock at Antloeh. But Bloomfield has long since altered his course and 'Agnew notified President McCredie of his "comeback" intentions yesterday, sending In a signed contract as well as a letter expressing the belief that 1913 i will be his banner year on the mound. Peters Is the third baseman from Trenton, of the Tri-State League, who refused to report to McCredie last sea son on account of Illness. "Mac." paid J600 for the boy. but was so sure that lie would be available In the future that he kept on good terms with the recalcitrant one. Now Peters writes that be has signed the contract, but mislaid It. and will forward the paper to Portland as Boon as it is found. Last year Peters sent in a signed contract, but did not report. This year he sends a letter. In addition to the prospective contract. This is taken as an Indication of greater interest, and Manager Walter believes that Pet ers will report. Peters is a San Jose boy, a graduate of Santa Clara College and at present a member of the law class of 1913 at Stanford University. He is a husky man, built along the lines of Walter Donne, and plays either third or first base. He ran the 100 yards in around ten seconds at Santa Clara, plays soccer and is an all-around athlete. William Underwood, of Underwood, Wash., writes to President McCredie that he has three men available who will make the Portland Colt pennant winners in 1913. These boys are Ar thur Hitesman. catcher: Carl Douglas, shortstop, and Ncal Bronsen. pitcher. rjie trio.Is praised in glowing terms by the Underwood man. hut the offer of talent is too late; the squad is com plete. The Astoria baseball people are busy already on a 1913 schedule. Nick Williams has received a letter asking for a game with the Colts before the opening of the Northwestern ieague season, bat there Is little chance for such a meeting. Here's a lineup guess of Sacramento for the opening of the season: Pitchers Arellanes. Pnicke. Stroud, peters. Alberts and Harden: catchers Bliss. Cheek, r.eitmeyer: first base Miller; second base 'Rourke: shortstop Stark: outfielders Moran. Kenworthy. Shinn; utllitv outfielder Van Buren; utility inlielder Wolverton. Heister. Al Baum. who released Umpire Wheeler the other day. says that tleorare Is too well known among the ballplayers of the league to make a complete success of umpiring, but should make good in some other league. u..,hr T;Mimv xwhonse and Casey. of" the 1913 squad, have signed, while Bush and Held, the new men. r.ave come to terms. : FOOTBALL. STILL PUZZLIXG Coach Not Yet Decided hut Several Will Receive Consideration. UNIVEKSITY OF OREGON. Eugene, Or, Jaa 20. (Special.) Xo settlement of "the football coach question at the University or uregon uas jci reached, and the committee having the selection of the staff in charge an nounces that it will take its time In deliberating over its course. New names are being mentioned ' from time to time in the discussion which is in progress among alumni and students. "Bill" Frank, who turned out a successful eleven at the University of Kansas the past season, has applied for the position of head coach at Oregon. Since the college which he has served Is several times larger than this Institution and is prominent in Middle Western athletics. Frank s name will receive serious con sideration by the committee. So. also, wt!l that of T. W. Hammond, of the United States Army, who played foot ball at Oregon and later at West Point. He was a member of the team here in the days of "Dick" Smith, who speaks highly of his qualifications. He is a brother of "Bob" Hammond, -another Oregon piayer of later seasons, with whom he is now visiting at Medford. There is quite a sentiment here in favor of hiring the mysterious Per kins, who came to Eugene at the dose of the 1911 season and offered his services free of charge, unless he should put out a team which should conquer Dobie's invincibles. Perkins got out on the field with a number of varsity players and demonstrated that he knew the rudiments of the game to their satisfaction; in fact, he made a wreck of the first team inter ference. Many spectators were in fa vor of giving the man a chance at the time. TUMBLING TO BE ENCOURAGED University of Oregon Athletes to Get Credit in- Gymnasium. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene, Or., Jan. 20.

EX-CHAMPION MAY YIELD Demand for Chance at Ritchie in Next C "-Round Go May Be Put Aside Jack King Picked to Train Him for Contests. Ad Wolgast is not the phlegmatic Dutchman some people picture -him. The ex-lightweight champion is com mencing to worry. He has no definite fistic engagement in sigh. Also his vocal organs are not in harmony with other portions . of his anatomy, for, while he talks of retiring from the ring and of laying off until July or September, his hands are busy writ ing telegrams to promoters asking them for a line, on future bouts. Tom McCarey, king- of Los Angeles boxing promoters, and Jim Coffroth, San Francisco leader in staging top notch ring mills, were addressed via telegraph last night. Ad has decided that while, he is enjoying himself in Portland and the surrounding country the promoters might as well employ the interim framing up bouts in which the Cadillac man is Involved. The news dispatches carry too many lines about the other lightweights, and pay too little attention to the man who was the champion ot them all not many weeks ago. Ad still rates his value to a pro moter at $10,000, and points with pride to the fact that never has a promoter lost monej" on a fight in which he was a principal, but the right kind of a proposition might make nlm forget his vehement declaration that he would en gage in nothing over the ten-round route until he has had another chance at Willie Ritchie. Wolgast yesterday turned down a theatrical engagement for next week, but says he will remain in Portland a week or two longer. Today he plans to go to Kelso. Wash., to look over a tract of several thousands acres of grazing land, while Saturday or Sun day he w'ill take a jaunt up around The Dalles to look over another propo sition. Tom Jones, manager of Wolgast, is confident -that he will land the man agement of Jess Willard, the big heavyweight At least he says so in a telegram to his protege. He has been negotiating with Willard ever since he was turned down in Chicago last week, and a number of friends are telling the big fellow what a glorious chance he has to earn a barrel of money by performing under the direction of Jones. Wolgast is certain that Willard could not make a better move than to affLx his signature to a Jones contract. Ad points to the publicity stunts and wise managerial actions Jones maneuvered for him and says that no promoter in the business would give Willard such a commanding position in fisticuffs as Jones. J. F. Brennan, a member of the Wol gast training camp before the cham pionship mill with Wolgast, likewise sings the praises of Jones, but as "Jimmy" Is in Portland for a few days and Willard is in Chicago, or there abouts, his boost Is not likely to count for much. Wolgast is author of the announce ment that next time he prepares for a championship fight. Jack King, the Portland man who trained athletes at Multnomah Club, Stanford University and other places," will have charge of training quarters. King neither denies nor affirms this, but no surprise need be shown should King condition Ad for his next go with Ritchie if that affair ever Is scheduled.

Thomas, the star backstop of the Philadelphia Athletics, at tains his 32d birthday .annR-ersary today, having- fceon born la Ballstan Springs. N. Y., January 22. 1S8L His first profeastonal eogaeement was with the Hartford team of the Connecticut League In 1902. The next war h returned to Hartford, but later tn the season was sent to Newark. During the seasons of, 1904 and 1805 he caught for the Provi dence team and it was while he was a member of the Clam Diggers that Ira showed he was ripe for major league picking. He was purchased by the New Tork Americans and played with the Yankees during 10OS-7. In 190S he was traded to Detroit. The next year he wa trad ed to the Athletics, where he has played ever since. Thomas has the rare distinction of having played with four pennant-winning teams. Providence la 1905, Detroit tn 19U8 and the Athletics in 1910 and 1911. u.,., ni thA V. M. C. A. as was arranged, every quintet of the in terscholastic league will have partici pated in -its first scheduled game. Coach Lee, of the Portland Academy team, has encountered much trouble in putting out a basketball team. After being handicapped nearly 12 pounds to a. man, Kingsley and Brix, star play ers, became ill and -will be out of the game for the rest of the season. De spite these handicaps, Lee expects his light men to give a good account of themselves. The Washington High School five may be without the services of Foster, star center, who, injured his knee while engaged in practice Monday afternoon. Judging from the advance sale of tick ets, one of the largest crowds of basr ketball enthusiasts will attend the game. As A. M. Grilley, who is to referee a majority of the interscholastic bas ketball games, is out f the city, another official will be chosen. The game will start promptly at 3:15 o'clock.

The last four rounds were the hard est ever fought in Pendleton. Montana Kid had all "the better of the bout up, to the sixteenth, outboxing his oppon ent at every stage and had his nght won on points, when Carpenter landed a terrific right to the Jaw. Montana Kid showed great recuperative powers between rounds and time and again had the crowd cheering by coming back when it was thought he was gone. Carpenter made innumerable wild haymakers, missing rights and lefts to the face and uppercuts so often that fans quit counting, but his youth and advantage of 12 pounds in weight told at the nnisn. , i. 1.19 and the Montana Kid 130. Carpenter hit Montana Kid t ..... i ninth nnri sixteenth and the Kid complained to Referee Dudley Evans.
