PORTLANDHUMBLES
FUTURE PLANS NOT KNOWN
Anderson Trill Try to Get Battlel
With Joe Rivers, Who He Be
lieves Will Be Winner In
Fight With Cross.
Bud Anderson, aspirant to the title of
lightweight champion of the world,
and at present gentleman of leisure,
secure In the pleasures of a country
place, came across the Columbia from
Vancouver yesterday long: enough to
discuss his plans for the next cam
paign against the present title holder
and those who must be left In the dust
to get to the place on the pyramid.
"To say Just who we will fight is
a little bit too far In advance, but we
are trying to get Harlem Tommy Mur
phy for the first step on Thanksgiv
ing day," said Bud yesterday.
'Following' that battle we will try
to get a match with Joe Rivers, whom
I pick as the winner in a go between
himself and Cross. Further than that
I have nothing in prospect, but with
those two on the shelf, where I believe
I will be well able to put them with a
rest of a few months, we will be in
line for a match with either Welsh or
Ritchie."
"I am now In the best of condition
physically and feel better now than I
did for more than a month before that
operation. Doctors tell me that it was
more or less chronic with me and that
an operation was necessary sooner or
later. It came about at a mighty un
lucky time.
"However, I have little respect for
Cross as a fighter. He should have
stowed me away In the fifth round and
crippled as I was, I almost had him In
the sixth. However, that Is all past
and I am sure that I can overcome the
handicap which many fighters believe
atays with the man who has undergone
an operation."
For the next month Bud will stick
pretty close to his 18-acre farm, three
and a half miles from Vancouver. This
needs clearing and Bud will do most ot
his training putting that forest into
stove length.
"The hot springs and the other re
sorts may do a man a lot of good, but
I believe that my little farm is about
as good a health resort as there la In
the country. At least I find it so,"
says Bud, and his well filled face ana
good color would indicate the veracity
of bis statements. He was taken
down to the Police Club to watch
Madden turn out his daily portion of
work. Or, to be more accurate, he did
the taking in his machine, the
"Bud A."
Anderson and Madden had quite a
bit to say to each other and Bud be
came quite interested in the Portland
heavyweight.
"Larry shows a lot of improvement
since 1 saw him last. He has developed
speed and has that powerful build. He
certainly looks good to me," was Bud i
comment.
Anderson will, for the time being,
go easy with the gloves and the bag,
doing only enough to keep in trim. His
farm will not be a training camp and
will be nothing but a tent in the woods
for the present.
Neither he nor Donald will make the
trip to Vancouver, B. C, the scene of
the Ritchie-Welsh fight on Labor day.
Bud has no ambition to see either of
them until he - meets them later. He
will appear at the Pendleton Roundup
either in an exhibition spar or as one
of the officials in the Madden-Root
match.
When Jim Jeffries thought he could
"come back" he backed bis claims to
the extent of sticking several rounds
with Jack Johnson. However, Peter
Gowan, claimant of the Northwest
heavyweight honors, failed to do this
much Saturday afternoon when he ap
peared with Larry Madden for one and
a fraction rounds.
On the face of his claims, be was
brought to the Police Club for a try
out. He entered the ring. but one
sight of Madden almost phased him.
The workout, as first proposed by him.
was to have gone unlimited rounds. He
was finally allowed four, but when he
entered the ring, two were enough to
satisfy. One did the work and the sec
ond went 50 seconds.
Madden also had a workout with
Ollle Peterson, of Denver, the con
queror of several boxers of more or
less renown. Both showed some clever
infighting.

Championship Fight to Be Staged at
Vancouver September 2 0 La
bor Day Match Planned.
VANCOUVER, B. C.. Aug. 17. (Spe
cial.) Willie Ritchie arrived here this
morning from San Francisco much dis
gusted to hear that Freddie Welsh
had put out his ankle yesterday while
running In Stanley Park and that his
doctor told him he could hardly fight
on, Labor Day. Harry Foley had
opened training quarters for Ritchie at
Eburne, and everyone interested re
Dalred to that roadhouse and" spent
the afternoon talking It over. The
outcome was that Ritchie agreed to
postponement of the match with
Welsh until September 20.
For Labor Day Ritchie agreed to go
on with "Frenchle" Valse, of Seattle,
for a 12 or 15-round bout, if Valse
will agree to private terms which will
be submitted to him when he arrives
here tomorrow. Valse got the decision
over Joe Bayley In Vancouver on
Dominion Day for the Canadian cham
pionship, and the promoters think this
match would be a fair drawing card.
Now that he has come here, Ritchie
is anxious not to go away without
having fought with Welsh. The lat
ter's breakdown came as a great sur
nrisa to the fight fans, who think
that possibly the injury is exaggerated
to secure more time for training. The
question of weight for the match on
September 20 was not gone Into today.

BT ROSCOE FAWCETT.
Walter McCredle. boss of the Port
land Pacific Coast League, sat in his
smoke-encrusted office as the Ides ot
November, 1912, whistled through the
open window, sadly contemplating the
ruins of a once-pennant grabbing ma
chine, now bent and racked In the
ruins of fourth position.
"It's single-Phyle to the Bush for
every man JacksoA of yon," ruminated
the Beaver mogul, spitefully, as he
doffed his Kelly and hung It on the
prong of a convenient hat-rack
Two days later Mac arose at day
break, even aa the Hensllng their
Lively cackles, and mysteriously hied
himself Eastley. There, at the big

McCredle, being possessed of much
cunning and Kraft. Strait-way sought
out his Cleveland Leard. a Hardin fast
friend of many a tremulous period of
ups and Downs.
"I Seay, McCredle, the Nap magnate
pointed out, in answer to the Scot's ap
peal, "I have almost nothing Moore In
stock, at least, no Wagner or Johnson,
but, take your pick of my Toledo club,
Meloan pal of the West. I don't care
Howard you Hltt them."
And it was Al Joy In the McCredle
household that day.
"The Mud Hens raised Halllnan some
at my Cheek," vouchsafed the Portland
mogul, upon a happy return, revealing
his gilded Mohler in a Coy smile, "but
I should worry and go Stark mad."
St.
Then, even aa the hollyhocks of the
Dell wilted into the sere Brown of the
Winter, McCredle called Into council
one Happy Hogan, who rules aa Charles
of old among his Venetian Coast League
cast-offs. And. there was suggested a
game of Pries-out, Lohman to be stuck,
the prize to be a choice of the rival
Ditching corps.
And Hogan, as usual, came out first
best.
"A Goodwin." quoth he. "I'll give you
Carson for Higginbotham."
"Wotell you think I amT" retorted
McCredle, his Cheek reddening in high

It Is said that when the private yacht
of Queen Victoria was built some SO
or 60 years ago she was considered by
naval constructors the acme of perfec
tion In stability and comfort until
she was launched. Then if we re
member correctly, she either turned
turtle or nearly did so.
Also there is the Oakland ball club,
proud possessor of the 1912 champion
ship. The Commuters were doped by
many to repeat their copping of the
burgee, but if they were to remain
around Portland long the deepest hole
In the ocean would be too shallow for
them.
Yesterday, before a big Sabbath
crowd, the mud-splattered Beavers
again walloped the mud-splattered
Oaks, score 7-1, giving; Portland the
superb record of five victories in six
games of the series,
v Ragermaa's Work High Class.
vRlp" Hagerman was on the mound
for Portland and his work, was 18 kar
at. "Rip" let the disgruntled visitors
down with five bits one a scratch and
another a home run over the right wall
by Ted Kaylor. Kaylor provided the
only excitement furnished by Mltze's
mannlkins, his homer accounting for
the lone tally. Hagerman fanned three
In the first Inning with two men on.
For the Oaks Klllllay and Prultt did
not pitch. Which Is to say that all
other available pieces of flinging ma
chinery were trundled out in an effort
to stem the bloodthirsty Portland slug
gers. They all looked alike five of
them and "alike" in this case signi
fies pretty soft pickings, as 11 hits
might Indicate.
Beavers Hit Five Pitchers.
Southpaw Pernoll opened and closed
in one inning under stress of three
runs and three hits. His is the glory
of being charged with the defeat.
Malarkey lasted two Innings, four
hits scoring another counter. Lohman
next essayed the hill, but Hagerman
pasted him on the salary wrist and he
was pigeon-holed in favor pf Drucke.
The oldest inhabitant of Borneo had
nothing on Drucke. The former New
York Giant got through one inning all
right, but when he walked two in the
eighth he likewise was awarded a
Carnegie shower bath and big Harry
Abies appeared In the picture, amidst
scenes of wildest hilarity in the bleach
ers and grandstand. A wild pitch, sac
rifice fly and an Infield out scored the
final two runs.
Rain, which Interrupted the game
during the first Inning, no doubt in
convenienced the hurlsmlths greatly.
but rain or no rain, the matinee fur
nished a succession of the craziest
pitching occurrences Imaginable.
Four wild pitches, two dead balls
and eight walks do not often break
In on box scores. Another perpetra
tion like Sunday's and Coast League
moguls would have to call a lunacy
commission for certain managers we
have known.
Hard Hitting Helps to Win.
Portland won through Hagerman's
effectiveness and through the great bat
work of seven of Its nine athletes.
Rodgers drove In two runs in the
first Inning and Korea another. Korea
bumbed in the fourth, run in the third
after hits by Lindsay and Speas. Lo-
ber's trtnle scored Speas in the fifth.
while Drucke's wildness has already
been ascribed as reason enough for the
final duet of runs in the eighth.
Hetllng cheated Berry cf a safe drive
bv a one-hand stab and saved a couple
of runs, but that waa the only real
nobby fielding stunt splashed across
the afternoon. The Beavers manipulat
