In case of bad weather players will hold Indoor prac tice in the big rink. The clubhouse at . kii f-rnund Is too small to accom modate the players and as the rink is within a stone's throw of the park it was picked as the dcsi piacc ior m . ln;. . . . The opening workout consisted en tlrelv of hitting and fielding and none of the players extended themselves. Safetv orders to prevent strained mus cles were issued. Practically all of the men are out of condition and all are overweight, but not to such Rn extent that strenuous efforts will be neces sary to bring them down. Martinont. Lush and Krause carry about 10 or le pounds excess, but this will come off in the regular course of training. C'eltria Fair Shape. Coltrin is more nearly in condition than any man of the 10 that reported. Kd Barnes, can Francisco recruit is the onlr new man that was out today. Barnes stands about eix feet and .will reach more than 180 pounds when In condition. Barnes has a world of spe.id and had gained valuable experience in professional clubs In San Francisco. He has played for the past three years with the Fort McDowell club. Traveling uniforms for the club have been selected by McCredie. They are navy blue with a white block P across the chest. Martinoni and Krause appeared in the new -unies yesterday. White will be worn at home, as in previous years. Heavy rains have made the ball grounds soggy. although perfect weather today put them In fair shape lor the first day's training. If sood weather is granted, the park should be In fine shape by Friday or Saturday. Practice Twice a Day. McCredit changed his training idea today and will hold both morning and afternoon practice.

"In Fisher and Carisch I have two good catchers, and in aoomon. sis pitchers holdovers from last year. I am going to carry seven pitchers and should be able to get a reliable bunch of men out of the 11 in tne camp.

Charlie Hall, pitcher of the Boston TUd Sox. applied to Dillon for a job today, saying he could secure his re lease from Boston. Dillon was non committal, but it is believed he will v.nt Hall tn work. Down In San Diego the Tigers had a hard day of it. Hogan had his men out at 10 o'clock and not until the din ner whistle blew did he let up on them. After dinner and an hour's rest the squad again went on the field and played a regular and yannigan game, the vannlgans winning by one run. 4 to 3 About everybody in the team took part tn the game. Hogan had his men pay especial attention to speed on bases, and seemed real peeved when asked if he really intended to have the Tigers show some speed the coming season. -Thev will be fast enough, don t fret about that, kid." growled Hogan.

Statement made last night in quarters identified with major league baseball that til National and American leagues had put JjO.OOO at the disposal or the inter national Leasruc as a fund to help i out of its troubles, brought about by Federal League invasions of its tern tory, were denied in a statement given out at International League headquar iom her tonicht. " Secretary AVIlliam J. Manley signed the statement, which read: "Kdward G.

"The crowd was excited, for we were playing at home and everybody had bet on us. The batter ' lifted an easy fly to me. I dropped It The crowd let out a battle yell and leaping out of the stand advanced toward me." "Gee!" said an auditor, "What did you do?" "Ten miles in 25 minutes flat." Ten-round contests without a decision for the title are not what they used to be. An Kastern writer has termed the last White-Welsh bout "pugilism's biggest financial frost, Milwaukee's poorest right card and Chicago fan's blEcest victory."

He could ill be spared in these days, for he cared more for baseball the sport than baseball the business.

Federal League officials, discussing today the reported signing by the New York Nationals of W. D. ("Poll") Perritt. former St. Louis pitcher, said the case, following upon the Jimmy Austin, Ivy Wingo, Walter Johnson and other incidents of a like nature, presaged a general renewal of the baseball war. Perritt some time ago announced that he had signed a Federal League contract. "The Federal League has a war fund of 8100.000," said Charles Weeghman, president of the Chicago Federals. "It was to be used annually for emergency. That emergency seems to be upon us." Mr. Weeghman and James A. Gil more, president of the Federal League, intimated that if the coming decision of the league's anti-trust suit against organised baseball is favorable to their side, applications would be filed to have certain leaders of the older leagues adjudged In contempt.

REED REFUSES TO REPORT FOR PLAY Phillie Infielder Says He Will Under No Circumstances Come "Way Out West." M'CREDIE IS SURPRISED Young Major Leaguer Returns Con tract Without Intimation as to Reason Portland Can Get Another From Philadelphia. ET EOSCOE FAWCETT. Mumuriinir Piutes may kill all the rlcnutv Sheriffs in Utah, but one thing sure, the scalp of Inneider million nccu, of the Portland Coast League club, will never dangle, from Indian girdle. Portland bought Reed from the l'nua- rielnhla. Nationals during the W Inter, and he was expected to breeze into the Fresno training camp almost any aas now ready for service, insteaa, neea yesterday returned his 1515 contract to W. XV. McCredie with the simple state mcnt that under no circumstances would he consider coming "way out West," where the inhabitants have to hide inside stockades and tote six shooters to keep from going bald. So there, you frontiersmen who live west of the Mississippi, consider your eclves slapped on the wrist. Reed's astonishing communication came under an Atlanta, Ga., postmark. There was no hint of dissatisfaction with the salary offered by the Mc Credies; no threats; no Inkling of his future plans, simply a plain, matter-of- fact ultimatum that one million iteea, late of the Phillies, need not be ex pected to perform in the Portland n field durlnsr the season of 1916. Perhaps he intends hurdling to tne Federal League," vouchsafed Judge McCredie, quizzically. "Or maybe he intends going Into business. I haven't thn uhost of an Idea what ails the youngster. "One thing sure, added, tne -oniana ball magnate, "he belongs to Portland, and he will not play in organized ball unless he does come. Reed came to us with Young Murphy from Philadelphia in trade for Dave Bancroft. I don't think he will be badly missed nor do I think we will have to stand the loss, because Walter's agreement with the Phillies required reporting to UE. Portland still has for infield purposes Derrick and Hall for first base, Stump and Naughton for second, Coltrin for shortstop and Davis and Murphy for third base. Reed was a shortstop, and in 40 odd games for the Phillies last year batted .206. Bvron liouck, pitcher for the Brook lyn Federals, will have to train in his own backyard this Spring. Such are the orders received by the former Phila delphia Athletic moundman. who is Wintering in Portland. Houck was told to report, "in condition to pitch, at Brooklyn on April 7. The main Brookfed squad will do Its Spring conditioning in Mississippi, so Byron is rather puzzled about nis status. F. S. Murphy, president of the new Salt Lake club in the Coast League, is a Portland visitor, en route home from California trip. Magnate Murphy called on W. W. McCredie yesterday and was officially welcomed Into the baljiwick that will attempt to maul the Mormons about on the sward next month. Mr. Murphy is a golf enthusiast and will go over the Waverly links this afternoon. Rudy Kallio will leave today for Texas to report to the Waco club of the Texas State League. Rudy pitched for Saskatoon in the Western Canada League and was sold to Waco when the war put the skids under the Twilight circuit. College, today selected his all-Northwest basketball team as follows: For wards, Anderson of Washington State, and Bigbee of the University of Ore gon; "center. Savage of Washington; guards. McB'ee of Washington, and Dewey of J.he Oregon Agricultural Col lego. , would be tho fastest could be selected and the greatest scoring "Doc." "Bigbee is a clever shot and a fast man to guard. Anderson Is without doubt the best shooter, the best dribbler, and the beBt scorer in the conference. McFee and Dewey aro lightning fast guards. Savage is of course head and shoulders above all other centers." This team quintet that would have power," said JICLTXOMAH TEAM PLAXXED Preparations Begun for Xorthwest Track Championship. Although the Pacific Northwest field and track championships are lour months off, Martin W. Hawkins, chair man of the outdoor athletic committee of the Multnomah Club, is beginning to mold his team. Martin says he hopes to have a team that will carry away first honors at tne cnampion- hlps to be held here during tne itose Festival. Amonc those he is figuring on for his team are: George Philbrook, Coast hampion discus thrower; Sam Bel lah. pole vaulter and broad jumper: Walter Hummel, sprinter and hurdler; Cvril Magone. the former St. Johns High School high Jumper: bod intnian. former Portland Acaaemy ana man- ford University sprinter, and iioya Payne, the University of Oregon ais tance runner. Hawkins nimseu win en ter the hurdles contest. All those named are old-timers at the came. Hawkins said yesterday however, that he was on the lookout for some likely youngsters and would no doubt have a few on tne string oe fore June. He is figuring on having tne same earn that participates in the Pacific Northwest events represent the Mult- omah Club at the Far Western meet to be held at the Panama-Pacific Ex position in July and the National hampionshlps in August. CLXJBMEX TO PIAY OREGOX Soccer Play Arrangements for Next Saturday Completed. John. D.

A return contest is slated for Eu gene a week from next Saturday, but as yet nothing definite has been settled. Manager Dwyer is planning on his star goalkeeper. Ray Leonard, to fill in against the varsity. Leonard was in jured recently and infection set in. which caused him to remain Indoors until yesterday.

W. S. C. team was caught In a slump Monday night. Their passing and shoot Ing was not up to par and their team work noticeably lacking. The Aggies, on tho other hand, showed an amount of soeed and clever co-operative work which made the fans wonder why they had never won before.

"Victoria's showing against Van couver last night tells me that we are going' to have tho battle of our lives tomorrow," said Manager Muldoon, of the Portland Uncle Sams, speaking of the Portland-Victoria hockey game in tho Portland Ico Hippodrome tonignt "1 am not surprised at the play they put up aainst the league leaders, Pete continued, "for a scrappier bunch 1 never saw. "We are in good condition and are ready to put the Aristocrats on the run, for they are responsible, in a large way, for our slump on the recent road trip. The two final games for Port land promise to be sensational affairs and everything will be done to give Portland lovers of the sport a run for their money." "Moose" Johnson, Tobin and "Smoky' Harris are rounding into form again and are going to keep Victoria from breaking into the win column tonight or Saturday night. Manager Patrick and .his warriors ' left the homes of their families last night to get a good night's rest. The visitors are slated to arrive In Portland this morning and will make their headquarters at the - Multnomah Hotel. They will remain here until Sunday morning before making the Northern journey again. That Dunderdale is running in his 1914-15 form can be taken from his showing in the 14-to-ll defeat or Vic toria by Vancouver Tuesday night. Dunderdale netted the puck on five oc casions, while Manager Lester Patrick added two goals. Cyclone Taylor came unto himself in the same game, gaining four points for the Vancouver Million aires and otherwise making himself obnoxious to the Aristocrats. "Mickle" Mackay, the leading goal- getter of the Pacific Coast circuit, forced himself further in the lead at the expense of the tail-enders by shoot ing four goals. Mackay has two years yet before reaching his majority, ana has proved the find and sensation of the league this season. Tommy Phillips, of Vancouver, B. C, will be the referee tonight and the contest will start promptly at 8:30 o'clock. ' The other officials will be named later. The doors will open at 7:15 o clock. . The 14-to-ll game Tuesday night was the most ragged, yet exciting con test of the year, according to reports from the North. The result of th contest was ever In. doubt, for the Vic toria representatives kept dishing up bursts of speed. At the end of the first period the score stood Vancouver 5, Victoria 2, and during the second affair each sep tet registered five points. In the third period the count at one time stood 12 to 11 with the league champions on the long end. Jt was at this Juncture that "Cyclone" Taylor took a hand In the proceedings and put through the two points to make the final score read 14 to 11 with Vancouver on the long end. Manager Muldoon already is trj'ing to secure material for tryouts and he has sent word to Leach, of the North ern League. Leach is credited with being one of the most dangerous cen ters in the circuit and he is the leading pointmaker of the league. Manager Muldoon has offered inducements for Leach to turn professional but as yei he has not accepted them. The raco for the Allan cup is gettina warmer each day and all the teams left in the race are battling strenuously for its possession. Melville, the pres ent holder, retained the cup by wallop ing Prince Albert in a two-game series, goals to count. The final count was 15 to 13. In the last game Leach scored four out of five goals made by the Prince Albert delegation. J.
