TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1916. 12 ST Offlf AND DUNN mm BEAVERS Signatures of Seven Other Veterans Remain to Be Obtained. 23 ARE LISTED FOR CAMP Beavers Have Contracts With Host oT 1 oimgstcrs Bartholemy and Black Are Catchers 'With Promising Future. BY ROSCOE FAWCETT. Two signed contracts were received at Portland Coast baseball headquarters yesterday. One came from William Mumpf, third sacker. and the otheii was from a new pitcher named J. E. Dunn, obtained from Bill Amour. former man ager of the Kansas City club. Dunn is a young fellow, and Armour had figured on giving him a trial at Kansas City this year. When Armour lost his Job in favor of Danny Shay, he wrote Walt McCredie about his phenom and Walter took him off his hands. fiturapf's signature on his 1916 salary parchment leaves only seven of the veterans unsigned. These are Gus Fisher, catcher; Chuck Ward, short stop: Al Sothoron, pitcher; Quinn. first baseman, and Speas, Southworth and Nixon, outfielders. Vaughn la Xo Vet Signed. Vaughn has iot yet signed a Port land document but he is under con tract with St. Louis and the transfer af his chirography is but a matter of form. St. Louis, it is understood, is to pay a portion of his salary as his contract is a little too steep for the Coast League to handle. Vaughn's home is at Tacoma. Higginbotham, Lusb. Noyes. Clark. Gregg, Stumpf. Hollacher and Fish are the experienced athletes whose con tracts already repose in Judge Mc Credie's well-pigeonholed mahogany lesk. Many Yoonimtern on Llata. Mixed in with them are the con tracts of a host of youngsters. Black and Bartholemy are young i-atchera of promise. Ray Alexander, of Idaho: Snick, of Athena: Hartman, of Washington State: Bigbee. of Ore gon; Durham, of Idaho: Smith, Peek and Tulwider. California youngsters, and Frantz, of the Chicago City League.) are among the young twirlers signed. Alexander and Hartman will not join the team until May or June and Shlck and Durham likely will not be taken to camp. Shick may be tried out by Spokane. He is said to be a promising southpaw giant. Lee Hoag to Be Farmed. Lee Hoag. a Klamath Falls infielder. Is another whd will be farmed out somewhere. McCredie already has Car son Bigbee. of Oregon, and Louis Guisto, of St. Mary's College, for infield utility berths. Ike Wolfer, of the Portland Inter scholastic ranks, and Neal Cullen, a Californian, are the outfield recruits on deck. Unless he makes further cuts before March 13 McCredie's training squad will number 28 athletes, besides a trainer. One of his young catchers. . Fish, will do his preliminary training ' in the camp of the Philadelphia Na tionals, so there may be only 27 at the Btart of the Spring grind. Ralph Glaze May Join, Too. This small horde may be further augmented if Ralph Glaze carries out his threat to attempt a "comeback." Years ago Glaze was a crack twirler. Eastern Oregon fans will attest to this. But of recent years his "soup bone" as they Bay in the clubhouse has re fused to deliver with its accustomed snap. Glaze drifted down and down until finally a year or two ago he quit entirely. The big ex-leaguer thinks the Coast climate has helped his arm, so he may fhow up in Sacramento for a trial with the Beavers. Glaze coached the University of Southern California football eleven last Fall, and his' trainer, Dr. Clough. will do the conditioning for the Portland club this season.

CLEVELAND, O., Feb. 19. It never pays to argue with the boss. There ibs, a well-known umpire who is ab solutely positive of that fact.. It so happened that the president of the league in which the well-known of ficial once worked had at one time during his career been regarded as a great umpire. Late in the year the umpire got into trouble on the field. The president didn't approve of the manner in which the umpire handled the" situation. He made it a point to explain to the um pire what he should have done under the existing conditions. The umpire didn't relish the ttitude assumed by th president, for he . expected to be upheld in the manner in which he handled the affair. The umpire ob jected to the' censure on the ground that the president, not being familiar with the conditions on the field, was therefore not in a position to decide what action was really best to pur sue. The president with emphasis in formed the official that he had always been regarded as a great umpire in. his day, to which the umpire replied in this rather sarcastic vein: - Comment is often made on tho fact that a native son is seldom seen rep resenting the city h calls his home. It is often the case that four or nve atn letes who live in Boston may wear the colors of the Chicago club, while three or four native New Yorkers may play with St. Louis. This condition is largely due perhaps to the attitude of h Dlavers. also the owners. Most ball players prefer, to make their start in some other city man tne one caiieu home. They are of the . belief that chances to succeed are much better elsewhere. In this contention they are borne out by a number of cases where na tive sons had all kinds of trouble get ting started in their home town. Base ball records also show that a great manv nlayers who have failed in their home towns have immediately, made good when placed eisewnere. jwosi players are of a superstitious nature, so it is only natural that they would prefer making their debut elsewhere, as a bush league or a big leaguer, as the case may be. , t "If you were a great umpire in your day, then I am the greatest in my day or any other day, for I can see better around a corner than you ever could straight away." It Is neeedless for me to add that the umpire worked in an other league the following season. In this connection I have in jnind the case of Harold Janvrin, of the Boston club. I regard Janvrin as a really great ball player. Had some major league club other than Boston secured him when he broke into the big league, Janvrin would undoubted ly be a much-talked-about young man today. Janvrin was taken from the school lots to the big show, sent to the minors for some experience and then brought back to fast company when it was figured he was ready. Boston fans could only remember Jan vrin as a schoolboy player; they didn't believe it possible that he could im prove so quickly as to justify a ma jor league berth. On the other hand. Janvrin knew just the light in which he 'was regarded and for that reason tried all the - harder to show his' friends, and others who couldn't see him. that he really was the goods: It is a certainty that this feeling of anxiety had its effect on nis work. Janvrin in his early debuts at Boston practically overplayed himself and didn't show his true fcrm. His lot has been a hard one and were he not a game player he would have failed. In baseball circles other than 'his home town Janvrin is highly regarded. Any of the other seven American League clubs would jump at the chance to se cure him. OREGON PICKS fvlATMEN O. A. C.

"Chuck" Dundore was defeated by Prestel in two straight falls, after putting up a game fight. The last round went three minutes, and ended when Prestel got a head chancery and bar lock. The keenest tussle was when Gordon Clark, of Portland, wrestled two bouts with Daley. The first was a draw and the second went the same with the de cision to Clark after six minutes. Clark was in fine condition and wore his opponent out. Shockley concedes the edge to O. A. C, as he is going into the meet with only two experienced men, losing three first-team backstays on account of the rule jarring freshmen.

Dave Fultz, president of the Players' Fra ternity, is representing Bates, whose home is at Paterson, Jf. J. "Under the baseball rules a player Is entitled to transportation back to his baseball headquarters," said Judge McCredie, in explaining his viewpoint "We always pay this transportation for players who Winter in Portland or in this Northwest section. "But when the player lives some where back East, why should we pay his fare to Portland? He can go direct to his home from' Los Angeles or San Francisco .just as cheaply as he can from Portland. ' "Bates, for instance, lives at Pater son, N." J. He could have bought his ticket at Los Angeles for his home for the same money it cost him to go home from Portland. Instead, he came north from Los Angeles to Portland, stopped one day and one night, and then de parted for the East. "Now he demands $38 and some odd cents for this side trip. It is not right and I intend to fight it to the last ditch." Bates was sold during the Winter to the Vernon club and will be back in the Coast League this season. m WASHINGTON STATE COLLEGE DE ' FEATS WHITMAN,' 23 TO 20.

QUINT CLUB !IS AIDES Chairmen of Committees at Multnomah Announced. 4-YEAR RULE IS PROPOSED Exit of Stars and Entry or More Youthful Athletes Into Gridiron Spotlight Is Looming as Result of Suggestion. A. M. Ellsworth, the new president of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club, last night announced his list of chairmen for the various committees of the club. The list was presented to the board of directors at the regu lar meeting and was ratified. Two new committees were formed and one was dropped. Deliberators on finance, one of the most important matters concerning the institution, were named, and Ralph W. Wilbur, ex president, was chosen chairman. Lair H. Gregory was appointed chairman of the publication committee, the other newly-organized body. The employ ment committee was dropped from the list because all matters concerned there will be handled by Dow V. Walk er, superintendent of the club. Of the 25 standing committees, 12 of the chairmen are holding office for the first time. Martin T. Pratt, who was chairman of the Intercollegiate football committee, has been succeeded by J. O. ("Dad") Convill. Four-Year Rule Proposed. Before retiring Mr. Pratt sent in his annual report to the board of trustees in which he recommended that the club adopt the four-year playing rule. This would mean the passing from the playing ranks of such stars as George Philbrook. "Patsy" O'Rourke. "Red" Rupert, Grover Francis and J. O. ("Dad") Convill. It is also unlikely that Wallace DeWitt. ex - Princeton star, will don a uniform for the club next Fall.
