NEW YORK, Sept. 12. (Special.)
The big show is over, the fighters have
been paJd off, the promoter has cleaned
lip a nice little piece of change, the
crowd has departed well satisfied with
the entertainment considering the price,
and everybody is happy exce.pt the
critics. !
The experts were doomed in advance 1
to hold the bag, and they are grasping
it firmly with both hands. Ten-round
no-decision boxing bouts were invented
by the man who has a grudge against
unanimous opinion on any subject.
Packey McFarland and Gibbons made
the author of the ancient query, "How
Old Is Ann?" turn over in his grave.
Pre as Facilities Poor.
Tn the first place the press facilities
were the worst ever offered at a fight.
The writer maneuvered to get a front
row seat and saw the fight. There
fore we say McFarland won.
Some of our most distinguished fight
writers were a long way f:om the ring
side, and had to take it, out in guessing.
It they saw one out of three of the
blows delivered or blocked, they are
blessed with exceptional eyesight. As
St happened most of the bout consisted
of in-fighting and was invisible to a
liuae majority of the spectators.
One enterprising journal had three
critics on hand to cover the fight. One
was a professional promoter; the other
nvas a mere newspaper man, and the
third was a fight manager. No 1
.warded the battle to Gibbons, No. 2
called it a draw, and No. 3 said it
was McFarland all the way, and there
jrou are.
Now that the smoke of battle has
cleared away some of the inside stuff
connected therewith is beginning to
work its way out, as inside stuff usual
ly does. For several days preceding
the bout there was an air of secrecy
about the Gibbons camp. The most
' ji renounced reticence was on the sub
ject of weight. Gibbons waaehy of the
eon les.
Today Walter St. Denis, sporting edi
tor of the Globe, and one of the pro
moters of the fight and, next to Tom
flihhnna Via Hoc t i-n f r r-ttn in it n in n iXT TI
concerning Mike's affairs, sat down and
Jet some facts out of his system that
liad not been known previously.
"Mike took two workouts on the road
Friday," he said. "The first was in
. the morning and was a public mat
ter. The second was a secret affair
. -which took place in the afternoon.
"When Gibbons returned from his
morning run he weighed in at 147.
or a half pound overweight. He was
worried and so were all of us. Noth
ing was said about it, but it lookei se.
rious. The weight of 147 pounds had
to be made by 3 P. M. Saturday and
,lklike was hungry.
"o Gibbons decided to take to the
road again in the afternoon and the
newspaper men were stalled off while
he took a second run. When he re
turned he was a pound under weight.
lie broke down and cried after he
weighed in.
"Mike was nervous and in uncertain
humor Saturday morning. I know you
and several other observers figured he
was under weight because he looked
drawn too fine, but Mike was not
traveling on any safe margin and he
knew it and it bothered him."
That about tells the etory. The
strain of making weight told on Mike
harder than it did on Packey. who
was accustomed to it. Mike never made
weight for fight before and X doubt
if he will ever consent to it again,
His condition when he went into the
ring was not what it should have been
- and he was far off his stride in every
feature of his work.
gels' run, which came in that inning.
The tally was made without a hit on
a pass. Downs' boot and a sacrifice
fly. The other run came in the sixth
on a single by McMullen and Koerner's
double. The Seals took the series, 5
to 3. Scores:

Roslyn Batter Is Hit by Ball and
Knocked Unconscious.
ROSLYN, Wash., Sept. 12. (Special.)
With the score 5 to 2 in the eighth
inning, two runners on bases and none
out, Jim Robertson, second baseman
of the Roslyn Moose team, was hit
above the temple by Pitcher B. Curry.
of the Cle Elum team, at Cle Elum this
afternoon. He fell as though killed and
all efforts of the numerous first-aid
men on the field failed to revive him.
He was then rushed to the Roslyn
Cle Elum Beneficial Company's hos
pital, near Cle Elum, where for nearly
two hours he lay in a state of coma
from which he finally recovered, after
heroic efforts on the part of the
surgeon3.
After 'regaining consciousness he was
apparently making a rapid recovery.
The accident ended the game, the en
tire crowd following the injured man
to the hospital.
It was the last game of the season
and each team had a previous victory
to its credit.
BY ROSCOE FAWCETT.
Although scores on both sides
smacked of the good old Civil War
joke out in '61 and back in '65 Wa-
verley Country Club's superiority on
the golf links was again demonstrated
yesterday at the expense of the new
Portland Golf Club.
Waverley's eight-man team rolled up
a total of 145S strokes in 36 holes over
the Portland course, eight miles south
of the city, while the home guard
Portland Clubbers amassed 1520
strokes. This gave Waverley a mar
gin of 62 strokes, and both legs on
the massive cup put up by the Waver-
ey Country Club.
Members of this organization -will
play among themselves for the trophy.
Aside from the tendency- of some of
the Portland team's club-swingers to
explore bunkers and traps that they
had been in dozens of times before,
the big feature of the day was a rec
ord for the course established by Ru
dolph Wilhelm, state golf champion,
who is a member of the Portland Club.
New Course Record Made.
Wilhelm shot a 43 on his first cir
cuit of the nine-hole course, and on
his next round he negotiated a 35. This
35 breaks the old mark held by J. R.
Straight by one stroke. Wilhelm was
lso low man of the day. just as he
was last Sunday in the first match over
the Waverley course.
Wilhelm's total last Sunday at Wa
verley was 15 and yesterday at Port
land was 164. Other scores, too. would
tend to corroborate the assertion that
the Portland links are a few strokes
more difficult than those on the East
Side of the Willamette.
Wilhelm's record round follows:

of the Waverley team, played consist
ent, steady golf, as did Rudolph Wil
helm for the Portland Club. Most of
the others, however, were more or
ess off their games. "Divots" were fly
ng around like mallard ducks over a
Sauvie Island duck marsh in hunting
cime. a jot or time would have been
saved if some of the boys had played
'divots' instead of balls.
Runnel 1 Smith Has Bad Luck.
Russell Smith, former state champion
and one of the best on the Pacific
Loast, enjoyed (?) a beautiful after-
noon. So did his paired onnonent
J. R. Straight, another of the Dedi-
greed clan. Over at Waverley Mr.
fcmith generally uses a cleek for his
tee shots, a mashie for his second and
a putter on the next two. Yesterday he
used his cleek on the tee shots. hi.
cieeK on nis second and a ' mudiron'
on his third, a "masher" for his fourth
ana tnen his putter on the next three,
lour or live. Occasionally he "fondled"
nibble and a spooner" or what
ever they call those trench-digging
"teiisiia. -wo -matter what clubs he
used, they all seemed to be stramrBm
Getting back to facts, the Waverlev
expert shot 47-49-45-48 for 189, while
Mr. Straight rolled up a simiiar 189
on a 46-50-43-50. Both took their dis
comfiture good-naturedly despite brief
spasms or rain that further complicated
the situation.
Arthur Dickson, one of the young
sters in the competition, ranked sec
ond to Wilhelm on the Portland Club
team. His four rounds were 46-48-44-
47 for a total of 185.

King Christian's Yacht Takes Presi
dent Wilson Trophy at Fair.
SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 12. Nordug
IV, the yacht sent out by King Chris
tian X of Denmark to compete In the
Panama-Pacific Exposition regatta, won
the President Wilson trophy cup to
day by defeating Captain John Barne
son's Lady Betty, of San Francisco, in
a spanking race over the exposition 14
mile course.
Official time:
Nordug IV, 2 hours 46 minutes 8 sec
onds. Lady Betty, 2 hours 50 minutes 26
seconds.
This-was the third and deciding race,
the Nordug won the first easily and
lost the second -when her mast carried
away.
When the IJordug arrived in San
Francisco it was -discovered that,
owing to the war, which prevented the
participation of other European boats,
there was nothing of her class in these
waters and it looked as if King Chris
tian's yacht had made the long trip
in vain. Captain Barneson, however,
undertook to provide a competitor. He
built the Lady Betty and did it in 30
days. He said today that he was well
satisfied with the result of the races.

Manager Says Amateurs Are Xot
Fast Enough for City Leaguers.
Manager Grayson, of the Piedmont
Maroons, winners of the City League
pennant, attended the Montavilla-Van
couver Barracks game yesterday, and
while sitting in the stand heard many
of the Montavilla followers say that
their team could defeat any baseball
team in the city.
Several of the Maroon players are
desirous of playing the Montavilla boys,
but Manager Grayson feels that the
Wright & Ditson League athletes are
not fast enough to compete against his
balltossers. Recently the Sellwood
Dingbats, cellar champions of the City
League, had little trouble in trimming
Montavilla.

That's the best practice we've had

after yesterday morning's workout of
the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club
football players. Sixteen athletes were
out in suits and all were on Multno
mah Field for almost two hours.
"Judge" O'Rourke, the giant tackle of
last season's eleven, made his 1915
debut yesterday morning.
Several of the veterans who had
promised Captain Rupert they would

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.. Sept- 12.
(Special.) It does not seem possible
that Oakland could go through two
straight games of a double-header
without losing either of them, but here
is the proof that the Beavers twice
fell by the wayside.
In the forenoon the Oaks won by
6 to 3. Later in the day, with the
Beavers playing like a bush league
ball team and piling up seven errors,
the Oaks made it 8 to 1. Everybody
on the Beaverville team seems to be
going wrong and the errors proved of
the expensive sort.
Oakland was lucky to get off to a
running start in the afternoon. John
ston was the first to tally. In the
second he bumped the ball against the
fence, was sacrificed to second by Ness,
went to third on an infield out and
was driven home by Elliott.
Bearers Bunch Boots.
The Beavers spilled their own beans
the fourth. Middleton's grounder
bounced -over Bates to left, Johnston
hit in the same direction and after
Ness had fanned. Gardner hit Roxey
home with a swat to center. Elliott
flied to Lober. but Bates booted
Buddy's drive for the second run of
the inning. Prough hit to the infield.
but Ward took his place among the
erring Beavers for a boot and Gardner
made the circuit.
The fifth was just as bad if not
worse, Oakland seeing three runs
flash across the rubrer.
That was the end of Coveieskie.
Evans pitcfted the three innings that
remained and got away with but one
run.
The Oaks actually looked like a ball
club in the morning and as a result
handed a 6-to-3 beating to the Bea
vers. The Oaklanders walloped Irve
Higginbotham for 15 blows and eight
of these were bunched in the sixth and
seventh innings.
Stumpfs Hit Score Three.
The Beavers rushed into the lead in
the third, when Pruiett weakened a
bit. Two scratch infield hits, Pruiett's
error and fatumpf's single through
short scored three runs.
Then came the sixth. With one out.
Gardner singled. Elliott was safe on
Ward's error and Duddy singled to left
lor a score. Pruiett beat out an in
field hit and with the bases full
Tanner and Middleton singled in suc
cession, three more runs tallying.
Singles by Ness and Elliott counted
another in the seventh. Scores:
