AT
NEW YORK. June 22. With New
York and Philadelphia engaged In a
hot contest for first place and Brook
lyn again playing superb ball and
sprinting rapidly toward the front, the
National League race has entered one
of the most interesting phases of the
season. Chicago still has a look-in,
and, according to Manager McGraw, is
the club the Giants fear most. It is
' Brooklyn that the National League
leaders are watching most attentively
at the moment, however, while in. the
.Junior organization it also is a third
place club Boston that Just now is
making the strongest showing.
The Red Sox. champions of the world,
apparently have struck their gait at
last and the American League is tak.
ins notice.
Pbflllea Take Brace.
In the National League it looked
early in the week as if the Fhiladel
phians were in a fair way to lose their
lead. Continuing the uncertain work
they had shown on the road they had
lost a game to St. Louis and three to
Chicago when they braced, took the re
maining games of the series with the
Cubs and then returning East trimmed
Boston twice in a double-header.
Thursday night the Oiants, who had
won 12 out of lb games on the road,
were close behind. But as McGraw's
men dropped an odd game in Pitts-
burg and were taken into camp, yes
terday by Brooklyn, the result was
to leave both clubs practically where
they were when the recent Western
trip opened, three and a half games
apart.
On the form shown last week the
Chicago team has little chance of im
proving its position in the near fu
tura.
Pirates Continue to Lose.
The inability of Pittsburg to win
consistently is still the puzzle of the
league. O'Toole pitched probably the
best game of his big league career last
Tuesday, allowing Boston only three
hits and yet his team lost, 1 to 0. Marty
kept up his good work by holding New
York down on Friday, however, and the
Pittsburgs got away with their sec
ond victory of the week in six games
played last week.
Aside from the Boston3' showing
and the slumps of Philadelphia and
Cleveland, the brace taken by the New
Yorks perhaps was the most interest
ing development in the American
League race. Even though the High
landers ended the week with a double
defeat by Washington, they have
shown that there is hitting and win
ning power in the club. The double
defeat that set them back served to put
Washington back in the first division.
Johnson Bearing Bnrden.
The chief burden of the pitching for
the Senators is falling, as usual, on
Walter Johnson, and" he is bearing up
. manfully under the strain. He already
has lost four games, however, and even
with his 15 victories to date can hard
ly hope to equal Joe Wood's last year's
record of 33 victories and five defeats.
Wood, by the way, flashed one of his
best games against Philadelphia Fri
day, allowing only four hits.
Hal Chase has shown improved hit
ting form since he Joined the White
Sox and undoubtedly has rounded out
their infield so that it is now a smooth
working combination.
The Detroits, with Cobb as their
cleanup artist, keep hitting hard, but
poor pitching frequently neutralizes
their work with the bat.

Although in this battered-up condi
tion, Sharkey was happy and did not
seem to care about his injuries, but
was excited in his anticipation for an
other go with the big blacksmith. He
wanted to smoke a- cirar, but he was
unable to get it to his mouth, and
Rogers had to assist him. Through
out his convalescence his only attend
ant was his devoted sister, who nursed
and cared for him.
Many stories are related of Sharkey
and his many breaks, but the one told
by Rogers is absolutely unheard of before.
'Tom had just opened his new cafe
on Fourteenth street in New York and
had invited all the newspaper men to
come down and look at the place, as
he was exceedingly proud of it. ie
asked one of the boys what he thought
of his place.
11 'Well,' was the answer, "all you need
in here now to make It complete is a
big chandelier.'
' 'I'd have one put in, answered
Sharkey, 'bui I don't know anybody
that can play it.'
Members of the Oregon Yacht Club
have taken it upon themselves to show
that they are good sailors and will at
tend the Eighteenth Annual Astoria
Regatta in a ship of some sort, accord
hi to the intentions expressed at i
'pow-wow" held at the clubhouse yes
terday morning.
They have started a search for a
small cruiser, which will carry the
owners of sailboats and have enough
power to tow them to the mouth of the
Columbia. An attempt will be made
to secure the Kola, the roomy cabin
cruiser which carried a good crowd to
the races last year.
The number of boats which the Yacht
Club will enter depends on what the
management of the regatta will do in
the way of races for the sailors. The
social side of the week, aside from the
sport furnished by Admiral Beall, will
also determine the number of members
who will participate. The Motorboat
Club is also watching this feature of
the show.
Social Events W-anted.
"I don't care what they have, as long
as they keep us from going to sleep,
said George Kinnear, of the Portland
Motorboat Club. "This is one phase of
the celebration which has always been
neglected, and I am sure that the re
gatta could be made twice the feature
that it has been with a little more at
tention to the social side."
Rumors from Astoria indicate that
the Portland persons will have their
time well filled this trip.
Although rain interfered with out
door work, yesterday was an extremely
busy day around the houses of the dlf
ferent motorboats which will compete
at the Regatta. None of the speeders
was given a trial, but all were thor
oughly overhauled.
Oregon Wolf Being Fitted.
The engines of the Oregon Wolf II
were transplanted to the hull of the
original Oregon Wolf and John Wolff
and his assistants worked all day trim,
ming the older boat and strengthening
the parts which have become weakened
from the terrific strain of the pound
ing motor.
Dixon brothers, owners of the Swas
tika, the present Pacific Coast 20-foot
champion, were in their shed at the
St. Johns shingle mill during the day
and are getting the little "cracker
box," as it was dubbed last year, into
running order. The little boat has
been showing good speed, and is ex
pected to repeat its performances of
last year.
The Chehalls is the only up-river
boat which has not been heard from.
BIGBEE IMPROVING RAPIDLY
University Pitcher, Struck, by Train,
Expected to Be Out Soon.

pitcher on the baseball team of the
University of Oregon, who narrowly
missed death when struck by- the Eu
gene Limited on the Oregon Electric
Just north of this city yesterday, is
improving rapidly and it is expected
that he will be out in a few days.
Blgbee was taken to St. Vincent's
Hospital In Portland this afternoon.
Though suffering considerable pain
from the bruise he received he was
able to walk about for short periods at
a time this- morning. A thorough ex
amination has disclosed that Bigbee
suffered no broken bones and that his
injuries are confined to a gash in the
head and severe bruises on his left hip
and shoulder, the train having struck
him on the left side as he leaped from
the track.

Famous Fighter.
Some Swiss doctors declare that the

MAX ROGERS, the German comedian
with the musical comedy, "Hanky

Sharkey and believed nim, in his day,
to have been the most courageous
fighter the ring had ever known. Shar
key was visited in his room at the old
Broadway Hotel by Rogers a few days
after his sensational 20-round battle
with James J. Jeffries at Coney Island,
which was lost by the narrowest kind
of a decision.
Rogers found Sharkey propped up
in bed in plaster casts from his waist
to his arm pits and the left side of his
face badly battered. Jeffries' great pile
driver had done awful work on Shar
key, for four ribs on the left side were

SAN FRANCISCO, June 22. (Spe
cial.) Willie Ritchie demonstrated two
facts in his first Sunday workout ahead
of the Fourth of July bout. One is
that his style has improved consider
ably over the days he was battling for
recognition. The other is that he will
not have the slightest difficulty in the
world making 134 pounds ringside and
still show up strong.
Just after his morning run on the
road, which occupied no more than an
hour of his time, Ritchie took his rub
down and then stepped on the scales.
The beam went up at-1384 pounds.
The question of the ease with which
he will make the weight having been
established so thoroughly, it is not
probable that there will be any hurry
in the future. In fact, Harry Foley,
having demonstrated that Ritchie is a
legitimate lightweight, believes in
going along slowly.
"It is not my idea to take all the
weight off in a hurry and keep the
boy down to 134 pounds for several
days," said Foley. "I much prefer to
let him take off the weight half a
pound at a time, and then when he 13
ready for the match he will find that
he is ust where he wants to be."
It can't be said that his sparring
partners arc quite up to Ritchie's stand
ard in any way, but at all events he
showed up as a wonderfully fast boy
and with a good kick. Ritchie did not
appear by any means to be putting his
full strength behind his punches, but
it is noticeable that every one of the
three who met him came away at the
close with a nose that was bleeding.
It is quite evident that Willie has
a fondness for that right cross, since
he tried it out on a number of occa
sions, and when he landed it was a
staggerer for the man who had to face
the music
If criticism is to be made of the title
holder, and that Is hardly fair at this
early stage of the proceedings, it is
that Ritchie seems to be somewhat
open to attack about the body. This
may have been due to the fact that he
had little occasion to fear the helpers
or because he was devoting himself
more to attack than to defense.
Doubtless it is the confidence that
comes with winning which has worked
a change in the boy, but his friends
are not likely to be disappointed, if
they make the trip across the bay to
San Rafael to see him in action.

IMITATIONS ARE RECEIVED
Whether Team Will Go to Victoria
and Vancouver Games Depends
on Whether Hawkins and
Bellah Will Be In Town.
Should enough of the Multnomah
Club champion track team be in the
city the latter part of July, Portland
will be represented in both the west
ern Canadian championship meet at
Vancouver, B. C, and the big annual
meet staged at Victoria. B. C. The in
vitations were received by Multnomah
some days ago, but the decision was
withheld pending the outcome of the
Pow-wow meet at Spokane last Fri
day, which Multnomah won with ease.
The Canadian meets come off the first
week of August.
It depends entirely on Hawkins and
Bellah," said Dow V. Walker last
night. "If those two stars are in the
city at that time we will send a team
north to represent us In the biggest
athletic events of the Canadian sea
son."
Foul Not uetioned.
'It was a great meet," continued
Walker, who handled the men on the
Spokane trip. "There was but one re
grettable feature, the foul by Whitman.
I failed to see it myself, but the in
spectors who made the decision are
men well known as sportsmen. The
Whitman man crossed over In front of
McConncll. The track was decomposed
granite and gravel and McConnell wa
pretty badly skinned up.
Our men certainly made a splendid
showing. Magone, the St. Johns High
School boy. who represented us in the
pole vault and the high jump, winning
second in both, is a comer. We expect
even greater things from him before
long.
Four Men Are Stars.
The work of Bellah, Wolff, Phllr
brook and Hawkins featured the meet
Their work was appreciated by the
enthusiastic crowd which turned out
for the game.
"Johnny Baker, of Oregon Agricul
tural College, did good work. The track
was not fast, as his mark ot 10 flat
was a little better than was expected."
Baker defeated the same men who
beat him at the recent Northwest Con
ference meet at Walla Walla. Kinder,
of Wnitman; Cooke, of Washington
State College, and Crites, of Seattle,
all piled up in back of Baker at the
Spokane meet, showing that Baker is
one athlete who can "come back.
Baker has surely atoned for his Walla
Walla defeat by beating all those who
finished ahead of him in the century.
He won from Turenne in the Port
land meet by eight or nine feet.

Several club members and members
of the press will be invited to the track
to do the timing, and he will show

No. 3 oars in the race. Their brother.
Arthur Leader, was drowned while
swimming at Rosa. Wash., June 3, but
the twins were not told of his death
because it was feared the news would

Ed and Elmer Leader are well known
in athletic circles in Portland, as Is

Their parents reside on Sacramento
