LEAGUE PLAYERS IN TOWN
Winged M Puck Chasers Outplayed,
: but Keep Professional!! Busy in
25-Mlnute Halves Vancou
ver Men Here Tuesday.
I Portland's new professional hockey
team was christened at the Twentieth
street refrigerating plant yesterday
afternoon. There was no champagne
in evidence, but it was a chistening,
nevertheless. Approximately 2000 en
thusiasts lined about the rink and saw
Muldoon's Dreadnoughts defeat the
Multnomah amateur hockey team, &
goals to 1.
It was a good, stiff practice session,
the first real game the Dreadnoughts
have played, and they looked to be in
excellent physical condition for the
opening game of the Coast League sea
son Tuesday night.
: Two 25-minute halves were played
without a stop even for an intermis
sion, and some of the Winged M puck
chasers' tongues were hanging out like
those of bird dogs that have beat the
brush all day. But they stuck at It
and kept the professionals as busy as
could be expected.
"Moose" Johnson, the big defense man
of the Dreadnoughts, featured in the
unveiling process. Johnson wields a
hockey stick that is a second cousin to
a telephone pole. He checks hard and
clean and is fast on his tubes for a
big fellow.
Uksila scored Multnomah's lone tally
on a pass from DIetz. Individually, the
Detroit lad was the star for the locals,
but he was out of place at center and
his passing lacked precision.
The lineups were as follows:
Dreadnoughts. Multnomahi.
Mitchell G Irvine
Tolln L.D. ...(Capt.) Herman
Johnson RD Gore
Uatman (Capt.) ...K Perry
Throop C Uksila
McDonald RW Dleti

The Vancouver professional team,
which will open the Coast season here
tomorrow night, will arrive shortly
after 3 o'clock In the afternoon and
will be quartered at the Multnomah
Hotel.
Two new men. Cook and McKay, are
in the lineup, but the rest of the Ca
nucks are veterans. Taylor, the rover,
is one of the most spectacular puck
chasers in Canada and no doubt will
prove a favorite here.
Another remarkable player with the
visitors is Mallen, right wing. Mallen
played with New Westminster, now
Portland, last year, but was sold to
Vancouver. He is a player of 10 or 12
years' professional experience.
No skating will be permitted Tues
day night. Hockey will furnish the
soup, the entree and the desert. Hos
tilities are scheduled to begin at 8:30
o'clock, and as three 20-minute periods
will be played It will be well along to
ward 10:30 o'clock before the final
gong rings out the evening's pleasure.
Mickey Ion, of Vancouver, the official
referee of the rink, will be in charge
of the game, and his umpirical assist
ant will be Skinner Poulin, forward on
the Victoria septet.
O. H. Becker will be Portland's goal
umpire and the timers will be Dow
Walker, the popular superintendent of
the Multnomah Club, and H. G. Beck
wit h.
Frank Watkins likely will be the
penalty timekeeper. It will be Frank's
duty to herd the convicts, those who
have been ruled off the ice for foul
ing. When a man's sentence is up
Frank will be the one to grant the
parole and permit him to re-enter play.
.
Bert Fleming has been sold by Vic
toria to the Vancouver club, according
to an announcement from the North.
Fleming is a defense man and may
make his debut here.
Owing to the scarcity of high-class
material the Portland Amateur Hockey
League has been pruned to four clubs
the Multnomah Club, Waverly Country
Club, Harrlmans and the Rowing Club.
.
ToniKht at 8:30 o'clock at the lee
Hippodrome the officials of the league
will meet and adopt a schedule. One
frame will be played each week, com
mencing about December 15 and last
ing throughout the Winter.
tJarnes will begin at 7:30 or 7:45
o'clock and two 20-minute halves will
be played, thus permitting the crowd
to begin skating before 9 o'clock. No
extra charge will be made for the am
ateur games.
The Waverly and Multnomah clubs
will praotice this afternoon at 6:30
o'clock and the Rowing Club and the
Harrlmans at 10:30 o'clock, after the
night skating session.

Detroit Tiger leader Expects Ex
Coast Leaguer to Help Team.
Hugh Jennings, leader of the De
troit Tigers, announced the other day
that his team will give hard tussles to
both the Athletics and the Red Sox in
115 if Pep Young, the former Sacra
jnento-Mission Coast Leaguer, lived up
to expectations. Although Pep went
to the Tigers this season from Sacra
mento, he had played with the Tan
kees under Frank Chance in 1913. He
tried for the shortstop position, but
switched to second base for the Wolves
and greatly improved his general use-
Xulness. I
Young hit .275 for Wolverton. which
was a pretty fair showing considering
the scarcity of .300 hitters in the Coast
League last season.
Boxing Briefs.
" "'There is to be no secret slipping of
money to any itchy-palmed 'amateur'
at our club," said Manager Hansen
yesterday in discussing the card that
will be staged tomorrow evening at
the Armory.
Hansen is a boxer himself and said
thfct in selecting his card he took par
ticular pains not to match certain box
ers who are in the game for the coin.
"I think that the boys do not put up
as good an exhibition when It is alj cut
and dried how much they are to get
before they enter the ring," said the
matchmaker. "I believe in giving the
boys some trophy that is worth while
and have them and the fans feel that
It was well earned when they step out
of the ring."
One of the feature bouts of the even
ing will be the contest between Des
singer. of the Armory Club, and Sum
mers, one of Stanley McDonald's boys.
JDessinger halls from Beaverton and
will have a large number of friends at
the ringside.
Some boy who are to become the
"future areata" la California' jiew
regime of amateur boxing, will be seen
here before the Winter passes if plans
being formulated by Frank Harmar,
chairman of the Multnomah Club
wrestling and boxing committee, are
accepted. Harmar plans to bring the
Olympic Club boxers to the Northwest
again thtis year.
Amateur boxing will be California's
only hope now that the bars have been
put up on the professional game.

PITCHER BISHOP IS
BOUGHT FROM NAPS
McCredie Determined Not to
Have Shortage of Twirl
ers at Spring Camp.
TRAINING PLACE IN DOUBT
Old Park at Santa Maria Is Closed
and Redondo or Tucson May Be
Selected as Point for Mobil
ization of Beavers.
BT ROSCOB FAWCETT.
When the Portland Coast League ball
champions mobilized at Spring camp
last March 3 they were woefully shy
on pitchers. Manager McCredie had
decided to use reverse "side" this year
that's the English way of expressing
this technical billiard term and he'll
have plenty of pitchers.
Perhaps he may he shy on batters,
with Kores and liodgers missing, but
he'll have no frost on his crop of
flamingo' artists. McCredie is deter
mined on that score.
As proof of the assertion, Mack yes
terday announced the purchase of a big
right-hander from the Cleveland Naps,
Bishop by name. Bishop is an ex-University
of Kansas athlete. 'He was with
the Naps last season, although he did
little else than warm up the, batters.
Bishop already has signed a Portland
contract, and will be there at the initial
call to arms.
Whether it will be at Santa Maria,
Redondo or Tucson will not be an
nounced for several weeks to come. The
familiar old training camp at Santa
Maria that has helped McCredie in his
task of copping pennants galore for
Portland has been razed to give way to
the march of progress.
A schoolhouse or some such knowl
edge factory is to be erected where the
old camp once stood, and if the Beavers
go back to Santa Maria It will be up
to the townsmen to build another ball
park.
If they fail in this McCredie may ac
cept the Arizona offer and order his
men to assemble at Francis Heney's old
home at Tucson. If Mack starts his
conditioning at Tucson, he will stick
there only 10 days, as he intends lining
up a raft of practice sessions for a
barnstorming trip through the Imperial
Valley.
Portland likely will open the season
at Los AngeT.es next Spring. Hig pulled
the chord at San Francisco two years
ago and again last Spring at Sacra
mento, winning both openers and double-crossing
precedent. So it's . Port
land's turn to open at Los Angeles in
1915.
...
Harry Wolverton is undecided about
his future, but the erstwhile Sacra
mento manager is said to have at least
two offers. "Portland" Bill James and
Harl Maggert are suspected, and. Judg
ing from at least one experience, Harry
will take another month to train.
...
Luck surely is against some folk.
Take Charley Swain, the big. good
natured outfielder, as an example.
'Charley has been breaking fences and
bats up around the Northwest with such
regularity as to warrant another trial
in faster company.
So the Seattle outfielder wrote to
Dugdale two weeks ago asking to be
sold to some Eastern club, and Dug had
just traded him to Minneapolis for Fred
Hunter when along came misfortune.
Swain fell oft a heavy auto truck
and the wheels passed over his right
leg and amputation followed.
No more will biir-hearted Charley
disport over the green. It was the end
ing of Charley's baseball career. Just
as he was about to get another trial on
the upgrade.
Swain is the man who established
perhaps a world's home-run record in
1913 at Victoria by slamming 31 home
runs oft rival pitchers.
Charley grew up at Palo Alto, Cal.,
and starred in football and baseball
there In the davs when the California
colleges played American football. He
made his professional debut in baseball
at Spokane in 1905 as a third baseman.
Dick Egan beat Swain out'of the Infield
Job and Matt Stanley, Spokane man
ager, shifted him to the outfield. Stan
ley is now a resident of Portland, being
employed in the local branch of the
A. G. Spalding Bros.
Swain was a member of the Spokane
club for two seasons. He was shifted
to Butte in 1907 and 1908; went to
Tacoma in 1909; to Vancouver 1910 and
1911, and got a short trial with Wash
ington the next Spring. Washington
sold him to Sacramento, of the Coast
League, in 1912, and ultimately he land
ed back at Victoria as a farmed player.
He was recalled by Sacramento last
Spring, and was then sold to Seattle.
Cy has a host of friends in Portland,
who are mighty sorry to hear of his
misfortune.

WASHINGTON GETS TIME
date: for gasie: with aggies to
BE NAMED TODAY.
Other Managers Tired of Stand Taken
by Doblc's Men, Says Dr. Stewart,
and Little Was. Accomplished.
For the first time in many seasons
the athletic managers of the North
west Conference took a decided stand
against the University of Washington
and as a result all the 1915 football
schedules are being held up. Dr. E. J.
Stewart, head coach and representative
of the Oregon Agricultural College,
said last night that he would not know
until late this afternoon when he would
play Gil Dobie's machine.
Dr. Stewart arrived in Portland yes
terday morning from Spokane, where
the annual conference meeting toon
place. Immediately after the annual
gathering, the managers of the vari
ous institutions held their meeting and
all formal business was transacted.
A. R. Tiffany, of the University of
Oregon, presided, and John R. Bender,
of Washington State College, was sec
retary. It was decided that George
Varnell, of Spokane, will be the offi
cial referee and starter at the confer
ence track meet to be held at Corvallis
either May 28 or 29, the exact date
yet to be decided. Only eight men, a
coach and manager will be permitted to
represent any one school.
Oregon Agricultural College Is to
furnish the medals, while the same or
der of events and point scoring system
as used in 1914 will be in effect. The
admission has been set at $1, and all
student tickets are to be barred. The
Rodman discus has been made the off!
cial discus of the circuit.
In speaking about the gathering at
Spokane last week. Coach Dr. Stewart
last night said:
"It seemed that everyone at the meet
ing was sick and tired of the stand
taken by the University of Washington
heretofore, and as a result little was
accomplished in the way of completing
the football schedule for next year.
Manager Younger told me Just before
I left that he would notify me tomor
row night Just when we would hold
the annual Washington-O. A. C. affair.
"It was the sense of the managers'
meeting that each conference school
should play each institution in the cir
cuit before scheduling a football game
with an outside squad. This makes it
appear that more contests will be
played in 1915 than ever before.
"Another important matter that was
finally settled was the disposing of the
annual wrestling meet. Because of the
heavy financial loss than accompanied
the last mat meet, no gathering will be
held next Spring. Dual meets, how
ever, have been lined up.
"Full power was given George Var
nell to pick the officials next Fall
when disputes arise between contend
ing elevens. This year an official list
of officials was made, but this has been
eliminated and Varnell has been in
structed to use his own Judgment."

"Since Salt Lake has entered the

the San Diego promoters asked me to

the claims of their city," said Morley.
"I think San Diego is more feasible
in the circuit than Salt Lake and as

I believe the Southern California city

MARKET EFFECTS SAVING
Lees Produce Condemned Since Ea
tablisbment of Trading Places.
That direct sales from producer to
consumer through the agency of the
public market has reduced materially
the waste in fruit and vegetables is
demonstrated by a report made to the
City Commission Saturday, showing
that during October, 1914. the average
daily consignments of condemned ma
terial of this character sent to the
crematory were two tons less than
during a similar period last year.
The report showed that during the
month the amount of stuff received at
the incinerator from commission places,
principally those on Front street,
dropped off close to 60 tons for the
month as compared with October of
last year before the public market was
established.

OLYMPICS IN DOUBT
Loss of Athletes in War De
clared Serious Handicap.
BERLIN STADIUM HOSPITAL
Or 27 Nations Participating in 1912
IS Are Involved and Others May
Be Iecislve Victory for Amer
ica, If Held, Is Prediction.
NEW YORK, Dec 6. (Special.)
American athletes and trainers return
ing from Europe are almost unanimous
in expressing the opinion that the
Olympic games scheduled for Berlin in
1916 will, in all probability, have to be
abandoned as a result of the war. A
period of 18 months stretches between
the present and the day set for the
opening of the international meet, and
much may yet be accomplished by the
Olympic committee in a year and half.
There is already evidence of sentiment
in favor of transferring the games to
this country or some European nation
not involved in the war. It is not the
site of the contests as much as the con
dition and number of contestants that
causes those best informed on the sit
uation to doubt the possibility of a suc
cessful meet in 1916.
In the Olympic games of 1912 there
were 27 nations represented at Stock
holm. The complete entry list showed
4281 athletes enrolled and the total
entry 7367. Of this number 3282 ath
letes competed for an aggregate entry
of 4742. Today 15 of the 27 nations and
colonies, whose athletes assembled at
Stockholm, are at war, and still others
may join the conflict. These nations
contributed 1121 athletes to games in
the following order: Great Britain and
colonies, 376; Germany, 185; Russia, 178;
France, 102: Hungary. 137; Austria, 98;
Belgium, 39; Japan, Turkey and Servia,
two each.
Many Athletes lo.
That these nations, even though peace
is declared in the meantime, cannot ap
proach in number or athletic caliber
these entries in 1916 is accepted gener
ally by those who have witnessed the
physical result of the war to date. Al
hurt -e rnnlnnd. Austria's Olympic
trainer, and Alvin Kraenzlein, chief of
the German staff of athletic instruction,
have both returned to this country on
an indefinite leave of absence. Copland,
in discussing the outlook, said:
"Personally. I do not think the Olym
pic games scheduled to be held in Berlin
In 1916 will take place, even if the war
does not last longer than this winter.
Other nations as well as Austria and
Germany have suffered from the loss of
their best men in the track and field
work.
Interest In Berlin Wanes.
"There Is not much Interest in the
games in Berlin. The great stadium
has been closed since the declaration
of war. The grounds and grandstand
of the surrounding racetrack are being
used as a hospital tor convalescent so
diers."
Conceding that the meet is held either
In America or some neutral European
country, the result can be forecasted as
a decisive victory for the United States,
ni-ovlritns- that the entries of this coun
try are made upon the same scale as
in former games. Although eighth in
total number of starters in 1912, the
United States was second in number of
diplomas won, scoring 60 to Sweden's
91. This included all forms of Olympic
snort comDrisiner a programme of 13
competitive features. The United States
was not represented in rowing, iooiDaii,
gymnastics and yachting, yet finished
second on a point basis with 124 points
to Sweden's 136. Great Britain was
third with 76, Finland fourth with E2
and Germany fifth with 47. Even as
optimistic an American athletic enthu
siast as James E.' Sullivan was, he con
ceded Just before his death that under
normal conditions the United States
could not hope to win so decisively in
1916. With Sweden and Finland as the
only formidable athletic nations not
handicapped by the strain and drain of
the war, there could be, however, but
one victor if the Olympic games are
held in 1916.

DEAF GIRLS GIVE PLAY
Washington State School Presents
"Beauty and Beast."
VANCOUVER, Wash., Dec 6. (Spe
cial.) "Beauty and . the Beast," up. to
date, was presented in the deaf lan
guage of signs on the stage in Mead
Hall by a cast of more than 20 young
women and girls from the Washington
State School for the Deaf. About $35
was netted for the Girls' Athletic As
sociation. Professor Thomas P. Clarke acted as
Interpreter for the audience, or they
would have been spectators only.
The version of the play was by Mrs.
J. W. Meagher, the well-known poet-athlete-prlnter
of the school. Miss
Letha Steuernagle took the part of
Beauty and Miss Genevieve Robinson
was the unfortunate merchant.
No boy or man was permitted to have
any part whatever in the play or its
preparation, and the costumes were
made by the girls.
F. H. V. ANDREWS BETTER
Well-Known Tennis Player Xot Yet
Alio vied to See Visitors.
Word from St. Vincent's hospital late
last night was to the effect that F. H.
V. Andrews, realty operator and prom
inent Portland sportsman and tennis
player, had passed his best day yet,
though he is not entirely out of dan
ger. The appendicitis operation seems
to have been an entire success, but the a
nervous condition of the patient has
militated greatly against a speedy re
covery. His nurse reported Bhe ex
pected a good night for Mr. Andrews.
Mr. Andrews still is not allowed to
see visitors, nor will he be allowed that
pleasure for a few days, according to
Mrs. Andrews, who, outside of the spe
cial nurse, is her husband's constant
companion at the hospital. Mrs. An
