TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 191G. 12 TO CAPTAIN BEAVERS Speas Relieved at Own Re quest From Doubtful Honor of Leadership. SELECTION IS TENTATIVE ow InlieUIer to Get Po.t if He JIas night Personality Buddy Ryan Undergoes Operation for Appendicitis. BV KOSCOE FAWCETT. If he lias sufficient personality to hold down the job. Bobby Vaughn will captain the Portland Coast League club this coming season, succeeding Billy Speas. Boss McCredie Issued this pronuncia mento yesterday between billiard Barnes. "It will bo an infielder, and possibly Vaughn," said Mack. "He ought to be a star out here, and. if he is the right sort, will get the job." While the captaincy of the Portland club is about as important as being a jitney inspector in Thibet. Mack has to be mighty careful in his distribution of the plum. Back in 1912 when the go-by was given Tommy Sheehan, Mack awarded the captaincy to Bill Rodgers and it nearly disrupted the morale of his team. Bill Rapps, veteran first sacker, had his eye on the Job and the bad feeling engendered by this appointment of the youngster at second resulted in Rapp's being railroaded out of the league the following Winter. He is now in the Western League. After one disastrous year Rodgers made good in the dual capacity of cap tain and second sacJter, and he helped McCredie pilot two pennant winners, 1913 and 1914, down the crooked turn pike of success. Last year McCredie named Speas as captain. While Speas was a veteran and a born diplomat, some slight bick ering cropped out during the season. Speas somewhat resented the fact that Mack always sought Johnny Lush's ad-vii-e instead of his. Speas said last Fall that he would be glad to be relieved of his honors. Fischer, catcher, and Stumpf, infielder. are the only other veterans outside of the pitching corps, so the Vaughn ap pointment ought not to meet with any objection anywhere. . Buddy Ryan, outfielder and heavy hitter of the Salt Lake club, was oper ated on for appendicitis in a Salt Lake hospital on Wednesday. Chief Bender was modest In hi3 de mands on the Vernon Coast club. All the Chief wanted was $600 a month, or $4200 for the seven months' season. Bender's knowledge of financial affairs is hazy, for the United States'Mlnt is located at San Francisco, not at Ver non. Not-one by one but two at a time the Los Angeles holdouts are falling into line. Jack Ryan and Harl Maggert signed contracts in quick succession a few days ago, narrowing the acute sufferers down to Fisher and Boles. Should Jimmy Toman carry out his threat and retire from umpiring, Roy Brashear may apply for a berth as in dicator holder in the Coast circuit. Kitty Brashear broke in as an umpire last year, and two brothers in one league dodging bottles would present an unusual spectacle. m m m Tommy Tennant claims to have sev eral good offers for the coming Sum mer. Memphis, of the Southern League, has written asking for" his terms; a Northwestern League club has made him an offer, and Tennant says he has some lines out in the Western League. Oakland and San Francisco have given Ham Hyatt the crocodile stare. INDIANS HAVE FOUR OWNERS Sunn and McCarthy, of Chicago, Are Among Bnyers of Franchise. CLEVELAND. O., Feb. 17.

OLD BILLS BOB IP IN BUTTE Players or Union Association of 1914 Demand Back Salaries. BUTTE. Mont., Feb. 17. The commit tee in charge of having Butte in the Northwestern Baseball League re ceived a formal demand for $2100 to day from an attorney who said he rep resented the ball players unpaid by those that controlled tne Butte terri tory in the Union Association two years ago. The unpaid salaries, it is said, is the "technicality" that prevented the com mittee and Joe McGinnity, of Tacoma, from coming to an agreement on the managership of the team this year. It is expected that, despite the positive attitude of local supporters of the baseball team not to pay balances on salaries for. which they were not re sponsible, the committee will reach an agreement with the unpaid players. Negotiations are practically complete for an inside baseball ground. OREGON TO BUILD LINKS UOLK I.VTRODICED TO FURTHER 1NTK A-MIBAL SPORT PLA.V. University Grounds Will Be Utilised That Greater Numbers of Stu dents May Participate. UNIVERSITY. OF OREGON, Eugene. Feb. 17. (Special.) Cme hundred toll ers, principally students of the uni versity, Saturday will begin work on the university grounds southwest of the campus where golf links and ap paratus for the playing of other games will be installed at once. , The plan is the outcome of the agi tation among the members of the fac ulty and the desire shown by the stu dents for sports in which a larger number of the students may take part. Intra-mural sports have been de manded by the university for five months. Ever since the beginning of v. firct cmdRtpr sin AttemDt has been made to induce 'wider sport participa tion among tne siuuenua.

BALL- GAME Pitchers Serve Only Straight Ones and Batters Have Picnic. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene. Feb. 17. (Special.) The first game of the early training season, a six-inning affair between the freshmen and the varsity, was played this afternoon. Thirty men turned out in uniiorm to day, most of them being used at vari ous stages of the game. It was a bat ting fest from start to finish, the pitch ers using no curve bails but simply limbering up on straight ones. In about a week the pitchers will be al lowed to break one or two, and then some of the phenomenal batting eyes will disappear. Following the game the freshmen were sent around the track on a conditioning run and the old men were lined up at first and raced to second, the starting signal being the pitcher's arm as he tossed a few over home plate in practice. The diamond is in fair shape and the weather has been extremejy favorable. As yet Captain Anse Cornell has not donned a uniform and Walt Grebe, sec ond baseman of last year, has not suf ficiently recovered from his attack of erysipelas, to get out. FRANKLIN LOSES AT SOCCER Jefferson Piles Up JO-to-0 Count, but Losers Fight Gamely. Franklin High School soccer foot ball team received another whitewash ing .in the Portland Interscholastic League, but this time it was a 10-to-0 defeat, ianded by the Jefferson High eleven. The Franklin team deserves considerable credit for the fighting spirit of the players, for they didn't "quit" until the game was ended. Moe Sax scored four goals, Giggs and Captain Negstadt each put across two counts, while Bosch and Borgeson were responsible for the last two. No more games will be played until next week.

The game between the two schools will be played here at the old armory hall tomorrow night, a return contest to be staged at Estacada a week from Saturday night. H0BG00D DOFFS SPIKES CRACK AGGIE DISTANCE MAN TO TAKE POST IN WYOMING. Loss of Record Holder In Two-Mile Ruu Is Serious Blow to Oregon Asgie Track Prospects. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, Corvallis, Feb. 17. (Special.) Track prospects at the Oregon Agricultural College fell with a loud crash Wednes day, when Guy Hobgood, crack long distance runner, announced to Captain Kadderly that he had laid aside the spiked shoes for all time. The an nouncement was made by the Ken tuckian following the receipt of a tele gram from Wyoming containing news of his election to the position of county agriculturist in Fremont County, Wyo ming. He graduated last June, and was following post-graduate work. The loss of Hobgood, the best dis tance man ever turned out at Oregon Agricultural College, leaves the track team minus a man for the long grinds. Hobgood, with the Coast outdoor rec ord of 9:37 1-5 for the two-mile, was also a fast man in the mile, holding a record of 4:21, and in the National championships last year at San Fran cisco took third in the five-mile. In the Far-Western meet at San Fran cisco last Summer he won the mile and two-mile. Hobgood was in the best condition this year since entering college, hav ing trained all Winter, and was ex pected to hang up new records in the distances. He was also slated to enter the half-mile in the coming meets. Coleman is now the mainstay of the team, in the half-mile, and the two mile and mile runs will fall to Lough ery. a freshman from Payette, Idaho, and Spriggs, of Portland, also a. first year man. MAIER MAY BUY AT WICHITA Vernon Club President Wants West ern League Team as Farm. LOS ANGELES, Cal., Feb. 17. (Spe cial.)

Arthur Pauline, controlling owner of the Wichita olub, i3 at Long Beach and is willing to sell part of his interest. He met Maier through Ham Patterson, 'r ; .r i.gri.r who manacred Wichita last season, and the two opened negotia tions on tne oeai. It is probable that the deal will be closed within the next few weeks, unless some unforseen hitch comes up. If the deal is put through, several Bengals will be shipped to Wichita this year. . AGGIES CHANGE ATHLETIC PLAN Attention to Be Given to Individual Needs in Training. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE. Corvallis, Feb. 17. Arrangements are under way for the introduction of a new athletic policy at the Oregon Ag ricultural College. Every student will have the amount and kind of physical training that is best suited to indi vidual needs.

The men's new gym nasium building provides ample room for the men and releases the former gymnasium for the exclusive use of the women. .'
