INVASION TO BE FOUGHT President Gilmore, of Federal Or ganization, Says Outlaws tHa-ve Xo Trouble Signing Players for Coming Season. NEW YORK, Jan. 12. Notwithstand ing Joe Tinker's Intention not to play In organized baseball this year, as evi denced by his signing a contract to manage the Chicago Federal League team, Charles H. Ebbetts. president of the Brooklyn National League club, an nounced today that he would mail a Brooklyn club contract to Tinker this week. "In my opinion." said Ebbets, "as far as our taking legal steps to keep Tinker from playing with. the Federals is con cerned, we would have to wait until he actually begins to play with the Federals before applying for an injunc tion. Until he does that we will not know positively that he is not going; to come into the Brooklyn fold. "The National League is going to pro tect Itself against the invasion of the Federals, but what steps are to be taken I am not prepared to disclose. The most foolish thing the National League could do now would be to show Its hand." BUFFALO, N. Y., Jan. 12. James A. Gilmore, president of the Federal League, who is visiting the cities com prising the Eastern district of the league circuit was the guest of the Buf falo supporters of the league today. A dinner was given in his honor, attend ed by men of high financial standing.

Mr. Gilmore left tonight for Pitts burg. OUTLAWS ARE CALLED TTXFAIR Barrow Says International League Will Fight Invasion. NEW YORK, Jan. 12. Edward Bar row, president of the International League, in a statement today concern ing the proposed invasion of the Fed eral League . of three International League cities Toronto, Baltimore and Buffalo asserted that the new league leaders were not fighting fair and predicted that "their tactica will only bring them to grief." "In the first place," Mr. Barrow said, "they are trying to masquerade as a major league, when they never can become one. They have about four major league players to a" team, but that will not make them a major league. They have a minor league circuit. Toronto, Baltimore and Buf falo turn out good crowds, but they do not turn out major league crowds. "The players who jumped to the Federals were disloyal to their em ployersw Men like Tinker, Brown and Knabe were in organized baseball long enough to know that loyalty to the reserve cluase is one of the founda tions of organized baseball and as much a part of their contract as their salaries. "The International League will fight these fellows to a finish in any of our cities where they intend to place teams." Saier and Humphries Sign. CHICAGO, Jan 12. Vic Saier, the first baseman whose acquisition by the Federal League has been rumored, set doubts at rest today, when his contract for three years more with the Chicago National League team was received by President Murphy. This afternoon a three-year contract." signed by Pitcher Burt Humphries, also was received by Murphy. Groh Returns to Cincinnati. CINCINNATI, Jan. 12. Second base man Groh. of the Cincinnati National League .Club, today signed a contract to play with Cincinnati for the next three seasons.

None of the men has had any experi ence on the mat. although several husky members of Coach Bezdek's eleven are picked as likely stars. Al though Oregon will enter men In all the events in the conference meet, it will not be with the expectation of vic tory, for most of the other Northwest colleges have been featuring the game for years. A series of interclass bouts is being planned to develop local talent. "RIP" HAGERMAN TO RETURN Pitcher Signs Portland Contract; Denies Knowledge of Sale. CHICAGO. Jan. 12. "Rip" Hager man, pitcher, today put an end to ru mors that he had signed with the Fed- eral Baseball League by announcing that he has signed his contract with the Portland Club, of the Pacific Coast League.

Both Teams In Good Condition and Bis Rallies Will Be Held In Behalf , of Thursday's Game. With both squads in the best of con. dition physically the opening game -of the Portland Interscholastic Basketball League will be played Thursday after, noon on the Young Men's Christian As sociation floor, when the Lincoln High and the Washington High meet Be cause the game lis the first of the local season neither coach has been able to get a line on the other and Thurs day's contest promises to be a warm one. The affair will start at 3 o'clock. Coach Fenstermacher is in a quandary as to who shall start the game against the old rivals, and Captain Knouff is the only member of last year's cham pionship team again in the Held. Sev eral promising players have been tried out, but as no practice games have been played little is known of their ability. However, the East Side coach will pick his team from Captain Knouff, Gorman, Parsons (a brother of the famous Johnny Parsons, of Oregon University), and Heitschmidt for the guard posi tions; Frank Johnson, Breckon and Wilson, for center, and Noren, Peterson, Myers. Pourpellotte and Martin to shoot baskets from the forward ranks. Coach Borleske, ot Lincoln, Is also uncertain as he has but one member of last season's back team to represent the West Side. The Lincoln aggrega tion has had several practice games, and tonight the last practice game be fore the big affair Thursday will be played against the Lincoln High Alumni squad at Multnomah Club. Little choice is given to several as pirants for the West Siders team, and the only player sure of his place ' Is Captain Clerin. who is one of the best forwards in the city. Coach Borleske has switched Clerin to center, but whether he will start at that position remains to be seen. Caesar, in the few games he has played, has shown that he is to be considered as a forward with Waldron, while Lillard and Schild neckt will fill in at the guard sections, and Drumheller, Greer and Mulkey will likely be used as substitutes. Monster rallies will be held in each school tomorrow morning, and present indications point to a record-breaker crowd. Manager Miller, of Washington, and Manager Hutchings, of Lincoln, have more than 600 tickets issued for each school. A, M. Grlllev. who ref- ereed the Portland Interscholastic bas ketball games last year, has been re tained for the present season. REVOLVER CLUB SCORES HIGH Portland Wins IVom Baltimore by Score of 1113 to 1088. The official schedule of the United States Revolver Association was re ceived yesterday with but 11 matches scheduled. In match eight the Port land Revolver Club shooters appeared against the Baltimore team and from all indications the local team won the match with ease, having registered 1113, while the best the Baltimore cracks could do in the first seven af fairs was 1088. Last night the Portland team shot against the Manito sharpshooters and tonight the Olympics will be Portland s opponents. Match 11 on the schedule has Portland left out and further par ticulars win arrive later. The shooters who have made a "pos sioie ana-are on tne honor roll " since match No. 6 are: P. J. Dolfln, C.

CASTOFFS TO JUMP TO OUTLAW LEAGUE Buddy Ryan Thinks Federals Will Grab Those Who Fail to Stay With Majors. CHADB0URNE MAY MOVE Portland Player Reporter Dissatis fied With Contract Howard Is Preparing to Play at First for San Francisco in 1014. Pacific Coast League managers are going to find it harder than ever to obtain talent from the major leagues from now on, in the opinion of Buddy Ryan, Cleveland outfielder, who will play either at Toledo or with the Port land champs in 1914. The famous "home run" exponent says the invasion by the new Federal League will mean that 75 per cent of the major league castoffs will jump to outlaw ball, as represented by this third big league, rather than go back down the scale to the AA leagues or the A leagues. "The major leagues drafted and pur chased about 150 players last Fall from the minors," was Buddy's comment yes terday at ball headquarters. "March 30 about 100 of these will be sent back to the brush circuits, and if I'm not mistaken the outlaw leagues are going to grab about 60 per cent of the gar bage. ' "Besides, the Feds will hook up prac tically all the veterans ousted by the youngsters who do stick above. "Any time they tell you there isn't material enough for a big league club they're crazy," added the ex-Portland idol. "Soma of those major clubs. New York and Philadelphia, for instance, have half a hundred stars on their sal ary roll, despite the restrictions. "Why, there are enough stars in the AA leagues of major caliber to outfit another league." According to a San Francisco news paper, the Boston Nationals offered to trade Catcher Bert Whaling and Pitch ers Keefe and Hughes for Catcher Schmidt, of the Seals. , In the Coast League they cannot see Whaling, because he was a boob when with McCredie several years ago, but Bert is a real backstop now, and, if he is as good as when with the Seattle champs in 1912, Del Howard would make a good trade even up for Schmidt. There is nothing fast about Whaling, but he is steady and has a good whip. After waiving on Bill Lindsay at $750 Happy Hogan later suggested a trade of Litschi for the Southerner. Mc Credie demanded some boot, and Hap couldn't see it until he found that Bill had been sold to New Orleans. Then the Venice manager got busy and met McCredie' s terms. Too late! Chief Cadreau seems to be a bad In dian. Harry Wright, a Nelson, B. C, mining man, was robbed of a ring valued at $1000 and a $750 watch at Spokane the other , night, and Cadreau was arrested on suspicion of having "rolled" the victim. The Spokane pitcher admitted having been in Nelson's room drinking, but de nied hia guilt. Del Howard appears to bo sincere in his determination to play first base for the San Francisco Coasters in 1914. He has called his men to assemble at Boyes Springs February 20, and Del says he intends to get in as good condi tion as any of them. 'I realize, says Del, -"that I am of more value as a playing manager than adorning the bench. Last year I was not in good condition and was unfortu nate in drawing injuries every time I tried to break in as a regular." Most of the Pacific Coast League teams will steal a training march on the Portland champions. Manager Mc Credie announced yesterday that his henchmen would not be asked to report until March 3, at Santa Maria. The Portland season opens March 31 at Sacramento. Art Kores and Gus Fisher, two mem bers of the Beaver club, are yearning for action, however, and will leave SPORT-NEWS BY ROSCOE FATTCETT. , TO the Sporting Editor of The Ore gonian: If that was Francis Oui mAf' a Tlinf-no-T-'jvVi . vnn mihlliaVlAd the other day, then I am going blind.

Walter Doane, the Portland outfield speed merchant, has not signed his con tract yet, but is satisfied with a raise granted by Manager McCredie and will attach his signature today or tomorrow. So much for one Federal League bear story. Chet Chadboume will be the next athlete to figure in a Federal uprising. for, according to reports from the South, Chet apparently isn't altogether satisfied with his contract.

Al McNeil, despite his previous pro tests, accepted Edgar Frank's invita tion to appear at the Multnomah inter- club meet with Vancouver in the local gymnasium Friday night.

He outboxed Calhoun In a recent smoker at the Armory Athletic Club, but a return match will be welcomed by -the fans.

LEADERS NOT TO ROW PORTLAND TWINS GIVE UP WASH INGTON AQUATICS. . Elmer and Ed Will Try for Battery Job With University Baseball Team. Connlbear'a Argmmenta Fall. SEATTLE, Jan. 12. Two of the most phenomenal athletes that the University of Washington has ever had, Ed and Elmer Leader, commonly known as the "Leader Twins" (and they really are twins) caused a gloomy atmosphere about crew quarters yesterday when they announced that they would not turn out for the varsity eight this year, but would try for a battery job on the baseball squad. These two young giants, hailing from Washington High in Portland, are juniors, and have made both the crew and football teams for the past two years. In the famous race at Poughkeepsie last year, when Washington's crew won a close third against the best in the country, the twins rowed Nos. 2 and 3 in the purple and gold shell. They also helped Dobie's athletes bring home the sixth football championship this last Fall, Elmer playing left end and Ed winning praise for his work at tackle. It is. noised about the campus that El mer, or Ed they can't be told apart even by Doble is a phenomenal twlrler and that the other Leader Is just 'as good a catcher. When they are tired they reverse. If they play the brand of baseball that their reputations call for, Washington will have a pair of battery men who perhaps are the most unique athletic performers in the country. "We are going to give up the crew this year," said Ed Leader to Aquatic Director Hiram Connibear. Connibear puffed his pipe for two or three minutes, got up and paced around crew quarters and then asked: "Why?" "We want to try and play baseball on the varsity team, if we can make it," answered Elmer. Connie tried a little of everything, from argument of the softer sort to real forceful language. The twins were firm. So it looks now as though the varsity eight would have to sacrifice two of its best men to baseball. Salem y. 31. C. A. Team Wins. SALEM. Or., Jan. 12. (Special.) The local Young -Men's Christian Associa tion Yellow Jackets had little difficulty in defeating the Albany Knights of Columbus basketball team. The game was played here. The score was 40 to 17.

Here we are. more than two months away from the close of the world's se ries, and not one ball star lias been smeared over the scandal columns. Not one of them has been sued for breach of promise, for alienation of somebody's affections, not one has eloped with a covey of chorus girls and not one has Inherited a few million dollars from a forgotten relative. All hail to the Feds! Harry Heilmann does not want to re turn to 'the Pacific Coast if turned back by Detroit. "I don't want anyone to think I am a fathead." said the Port land star, in San Francisco. "I don't hold myself too good for the Coast League, but I think a young fellow al ways does better away from home than among those wno are inclined to look upon one as a kid." . . . - Walter Johnson Is making quite a reputation as a chicken fancier In East ern Kansas. The Washington pitching star has copped a couple of blue rib bons already. There are many chick en fanciers in the Pacific Coast League, too, and likewise some in the North western. There Is quite a discussion on in golf circles as to whether or not golf has not become too easy. The rubber-covered ball has done a lot, it seems, toward reducing some of the difficul ties. Golf courses would have to be 1000 yards longer to give a similar test to the hitting power which ruled in the gutta percha days. Such a length, however, would be out of the question, for you can imagin what a howl would go up were the Waverly links to be extended 1000 yards. D. Herbert Fowley, a well-known constructor of courses, advances argu ments for two changes. First, the standardization of the balls, and, sec ondly, the guarding of putting-greens by the adoption of cross hazards so far from- the putting greens as to make it Impossible to play the approach shot from nearer than a desired distance. On the same theory a penalty ought to be Imposed in baseball for bitting the sphere out of the lot. These world's tours are liberal edu cators. Charley Comiskey can now say: Bring us one all around, in Japanese, Chinese and Spanish as well as in Chi cago English.

RIGHT HOOK TO JAW LANDS After One Minute and 38 Seconds of Fighting In Round San. Francis- . co "White Hope" Goes to Floor for Count. NEW YORK. Jan. 12. Mike Gibbons, of St. Paul, knocked out Bob McAllis ter, of San Francisco, in the seventh round of their ten-round match here tonight. The decisive blow a right hook to the Jaw came at the end of one min- MIks Gibbons, Who Temporarily Kndrd Bob McAllister's cham pionship Aspirations by Knock ins Him Ont in the Seventh In New York Last Night. ute and 38 seconds' fighting in the round. Gibbons weighed in at 152 Vi pounds and McAllister at 160. The Califor- nian also had the advantage in height and reach. McAllister outpointed his opponent in the first four rounds, although Gib bons occasionally sent over a hard left hook. Gibbons got to his man in the fifth, landing left hooks to the jaw and body, but McAllister's -work at long range evened up the round. Gibbons repeatedly hooked McAllis ter on the Jaw with lefts in the sixth and McAllister showed signs of dis tress. -In the final round Gibbons caught the Californian with a right cross to the jaw staggering him. He followed up his advantage with a bombardment of lefts and rights and ended the contest with a hard right hook to the point of the jaw. RECORDS ARE 1XTERESTIXG Gibbons Has Fought Far More Bat tles Than 'Western Opponent. .When McAllister first broke away from the amateur pasture's and took on Sailor Petrosky. it was the unanl mous opinion of San Francisco fight experts that he would never become a champion. McAllister fought two draws with Petrosky, both of which were much in favor of Petrosky as .far as the showing , was concerned. The knockout in the seventh round by Gibbons in New York last night accordingly willcause little comment in California. Gibbons has proved the stumbling block of too many aspirants.

Reed College freshmen smothered the sophomores in a game of basket ball yesterday by the score of 67 to 10. The freshmen won on superior teamwork. The sophomores could not furnish enough opposition to show up the weak points in the freshmen team. Williams, of the winners, who was guarded so closely In the dormitory day student game some time ago that he did not get a chance to show his accuracy in shooting baskets, made 35 points for his team yesterday. Kitten berg at center made IS points. The guarding of Irle was excellent. The game is interesting chiefly be cause of the ability displayed by the freshmen and the probability that they will win the series unless the faculty musters a team much superior to the other class teams. The faculty plays its first game tomorrow with the Ju niors, who were the victors in the series last year. y The lineup yesterday was as follows: Freshmen William and Sechrist, for wards; Rittenberg, center; Irle and Riddle, guards. Sophomores Zabel and Buland, forwards; Lackey, center; Norman and Ross, guards. Substitutes Larrabee for Sechrist. Clark for Nor man, Norman for Buland. Weber, referee. Stephens 16, Apaches 12. The Stephens basketball team won a hard-fought game from the crack Apaches'- quintet of the Young Men's Christian Association, 16 to 12, on the losers' floor last night.

Vancouver Soldiers and Western Soda Team Take House League Matches Rolled on Oregon "Sktda." The Portland bowling house leagues played some interesting games last night with exceptionally good scores for the C leaguers. On the Saratoga alleys, the Royal Shoe team trimmed the Foresters of America in two of three games. In the other match on the alleys the White Crow cigar merchants took all three games from the Keystone Optical men. Sacks, of the White Crow team, had the high game, 182, in the last match, but F. E. Peterson passed all bounds in the first match, when he scored 235. On the Oregon alleys the Vancouver soldiers defeated tho Blumauer-Frank five, two of three games.

The former lightweight king has been having a winning streak, hence the re newed hope in some of the fans. Wol gast has small chance, so far as the West can see. a Some folk have wanted to know just why George Chip has not drawn better gates. He is still a "ham and egger," as far as the gate is concerned.
