BY ROSCOE FAWCETT.
t'ortland has the best playgrounds
system on the Pacific Coast, is some
what tardy as to tennis courts, and is
absolutely out of date in the matter of
municipal golf links.
This is the declaration of J. O. Con
ville, superintendent of parks, of the
city of Portland, made yesterday when
bearded in his den in the City HalL
"Two or three sections need addi
tional playgrounds." said he, "but, on
the whole, our playgrounds system is
excellent. A year or two ago we were
woefully shy on tennis courts. Last
season, however, we brought thi3 de
partment up to 20 courts, and this year
we expect to have at least 40 courts in
operation.
Seattle Hu 106 Courts.
"Seattle had 106 tennis courts last
year, and California cities have num
berless courts. Portland covers so
much space, however, that we have
plenty of vacant property, and, doubt
less our private courts win ormg us up
to Seattle and other cities, so we are
not worrying much over tennis.
"Rut. we should have a municipal
KOlf links." added the former doughty
football star. "I have been Quietly m-
tiE-tinir this jrolf situation for
couple of years and. although I don't
nlav the came myself, I know its ad-
vnntne-est-
"There are thousands of people in
the city who are too old to patronize
the playgrounds, who do nor. piay ten
nis and who have not the money 10 De
Jong to the exclusive golf clubs.
nrly All Bis, Cities Have Links.
"It is for these folk that we should
fcave a municipal golf links. .Practi
cally every large city in the United
States has at least one municipal
course, while some of them own two or
three.
"While it would require several thou
Band dollars and several months of
hard work, after that the links would
be self-sustaining, in fact, most golf
courses make money. Seattlo opened
Its municipal links last May and by
January 1 its net earnings were Be
tween lix.o and $2000. And, too, some
of the big purchases, such as expensive
mowers and other apparatus were
charged against this operating cost of
thn first year," continued Air. uonvin.
The Ladd tract near the Reed College,
over which there has been much dis
cussion of late, would be an ideal site
for-, a municipal golf links, thinks
Superintendent Convill.
Klghteen-Hole Coarse Is Ideal.
It contains an ideal 18-hole course
with a natural lake covering six acres
of ground and maintained by natural
springs.
"The lake would indeed make an un
usual hazard, and I will risk my repu
tation on making this property one of
the prettiest and best links in the
country. If the city does not take this
land over under some kind of an ar
rangement for a golf links, I believe
that one section of it will be leased for
rose garden.
"There is another piece of ground
Just north of Peninsula Park which
would do well for a public links. Also
the old County Farm, which is at pres
ent being leased by the county to an
individual. This tract is only 600 feet
back of "Washington Park, but Is not
quite large enough for an 18-hole
course. However, the old site of the
Poor Farm may eventually become the
municipal golf links."
The Great WHEN.
When the firat man steps to bat
And swings with a lusty clout;
When the first hit streaks Its flight.
Or the first Ions fly goes out;
The ghosts of tbe old gods como
To earth from their place on hish
When the pink sets back in the sun,
And the blua seta back in the sky.
When the call comes out of the air
To reach for the iron keen. v
To seek through the melting snows
The way of the Ancient Green.
Orav ghosts of the graves arise
With a dream that will never die.
"When the pink nets back in the sun,
nd the bluo gets back In tbe sky.
When the white-marked courts are fixed,
nd the first serve rings an ace;
"When the first clean smash goes true,
Jt fiash to an open space;
Then for a breath of spring
T ven the dead must sigh.
When the pink gets back In the sun,
And the blue gets back. In the sky.
BaUerlan Precedents.
Various opinions have been expressed
s to Baker's ability to return witn a
,300 glint in his batting eye.
But why should one off-season af
fect his Walloping Orb? There are at
least two eminent precedents to cover
the Baker case.
In 1905 Jimmy Callahan quit the
White Sox. He quit with a batting
average of .272. For the next live
years he paddled around with a semi
pro club. Then in 1911 he rejoined ma
old major league camp and batted ,281,
9 points higher than he had batted
when he left off.
In 1907 Mike Donlin left the Giants.
Michael ceased with an average of .314
in 1906. In 1911 he decided to return,
and that year with Boston and New
York batted .316, a gain of two points.
Xw if Baker
So if J. Franklin Baker follows the
Callahan-Donlin system of quitting and
returning he should bat better this sea
son than he did in 1914, his last year
out, where he popped away amtng the
leaders.
There are times when a good vaca
tion is a useful thing for the indus
trious citizen, whether he be a third
baseman or a shoe clerk.

j The Smoke Ball Kins.
Joe Wood, the Smoke Ball King of
the Red Sox. believes the final kink
has left his arm and that he will be
ready to pick up in 1916 where he left
off in 1912.
Wood, a fine, clean type of the earn
est athlete, is one of the great pitchers
of the game. You failed to hear as
much about him last season as many
others, and yet with an arm that was
only slowly working into shape he
worked in 25 games and was tbe most
effective pitcher in his circuit, allow

Ing fewer earned runs to the start than
even that Nonpareil from Weiser.
Idaho, and Washington, D. C. Walter
Johnson.
Wood has been training intelligently
all Winter, He is starting his nintn
season with the Red Sox, and yet to
day is only 26 years old. If he can iron
away that one kink in the old whip
he should be good for another 10 years.
The Greatest Staff.
If Wood Is at his best the Red Sox
staff should be the greatest that base
ball ever knew greater than the Cud
staff of 1906; the Mackian staff that
included Bender, Coombs and Plank
at their best; the Giant staff that knew
Mathewson, Marquard and Tesreau;
even the old Pirate staff that had
Chesbro, Tannchill, Leever and Phll

SCHOLARSHIP.
William I- Coleman.
William E. Coleman, a Wash
ington High School student, has
won the Harvard scholarship, of
fered each year by the Harvard

land High School.
Mr. Coleman was graduated
from the Washington High
School in the class of February,
1916, with an average of more
than 90 per cent in all studies
for the four years of attendance.
He is the son of Mrs. J. C.

The wise entry is content to win and
save something for the next start.
With too many superficial observers
the amount of money involved makes
the class of the field.
World's Record.
Here's another world's record. In
place of being overrated financially, the
old Mackian infield was under-rated.
They were known as the $100,000 In
field. Collins cost Comiskey $65,000;
Baker cost 25.000; Barry brought ?2l,-
000. This totals $110,000 with Mclnnis
left, and Stuffy is worth 25,000 beyond
debate.
And that $135,000 infield cost Connie
less than $2000. If you can pick the
right ones, a gold mine isn't In the
same class.
We have only one wager to launch
on the Willard-Moran fight. And that
is that on the eve of battle both fight
ers will be " confident of winning." Any
takers?
JUNIOR COMPANY FORMS
New .Tinenile Organization May Be
Added to Guard.
The OregonyNational Guard is just
organizing a new CompanyC, which, if
the bill which is part of the annual
militia bill now before Congress, is
passed, will be the first company of
junior guards to be mustered in Amer
ica. There are to be 65 members, be
tween the ages of 13 and 18 years, and
each more than 5 feet 3 inches in
height.
The officers of the new company are
to be F. J. Clarke. Captain, and A. I
Armstrong, Second Lieutenant. Three
enlisted men detailed to start the com
pany are H. K. Paulson, Corporal Conk
lin and Private Whitesides.
The enlistments in this company are
being taken to cover the period of one
year, and during the Summer a 40-day
encampment is planned. The drills will
be held Saturday nights at 7:30, in the
Armory.
JITNEY DRIVER ARRESTED
V. B. Holbrook Charged With Pass
ing Streetcar in. Law Violation.
W. B. Holbrook, jitney driver, living

night on a charge of reckless driving,
after he is said to have passed a street
car which was discharging passengers

30 miles an hour, as his machine
skidded 30 feet after he applied the
brakes. Holbrook's bail was placed at
$25, but he was unable to furnish it, so
he was sent to jail.

married March 15. 1911. We are still

named as co-respondent, but others are
so named.
"Mrs. Riddell. in her reply, names
two women co-respondents, but not Dr.
Anna Wheeler."
Paid Plot Charted.
For her troubles Dr. Wheeler blames
F. D. Stephenson, manager of the cof
fee department of Wadhams & Co.
Sh-e savs she is positive that he "pre
pared and paid for the plot" against
her.
"I boarded and roomed with tne
Stephenson family for about lour
years,'" she stated. "In tact, X was
married to Dr. Glenn Wheeler in their
home. My relationship with them was
of the closest. 1 regarded Dotn Air.
and Mrs. Stephenson as among my best
friends."
After her husband's departure on the
sea voyage. Mr. Stephenson commenced
unwelcome attentions, said Dr. Wheeler.
With Intent to revenge himself for her
repulses, he is said to have registered
her name at the Hoyt Hotel, coupled
with that of S. B. Andrews, which he
assumed. On 13 'different occasions
this was alleged to have taken place.
When information of the ruse was
conveyed to Dr.. Wheeler she caused an
nvestigation for criminal libel Dctore
the grand jury, and on December 3,
last, an indictment to that effect was
returned. Clerks at tne notel were
unable to identify Dr. Wheeler as the
woman who registered in her name.
The case' against Stephenson is still
pending.
Shadovrtns Is Related.
'Since Stephenson's indictment," con
tinued Dr. Wheeler, "I have been fol
lowed night and day. They broke into
my room at the Multnomah Hotel, and
even stole $13 from my purse. They
listened at my door until I was-forced
to take an extra room. Malicious un
truths have been circulated about, me.
The last attack was to tap my tele
phone wires.
The wire-tapping was done Dy an
expert. They tapped a dead-end wire
of the Pacific service on the top floor
of the Piatt bisilding. connecting it
with the trunk line of the Home phone.
ran it Into the basement and trans
ferred it to another trunk line, and into
room 317 of the Piatt building. In this
manner they secured communication
with my office, 317 Medical building.
"The wire-tapping room was rented
by a deputy Constable or deputy Sher
iff named Charles B. Dill, and occupied
and used by D. B. Coffey and Edward
James Hayman. When they were ar
rested the telephone headpiece was in
Mr. Hayman's overcoat pocket.
Mr. Stephenson Called.
'Let me tell you something. When
they were taken to the police station,
Hayman immediately called up Mr.
Stephenson at his residence, 227 East
Twenty-third street. Roger Sinnott,
his attorney, bailed the men out."
The court records show that Marie
Riddell began suit for separate main
tenance from Alex G. Riddell on De
cember 1, 1915. She mentioned Mrs.
Wheeler in the complaint at that time,
but did not detail allegation.
In the complaint, however, it is
stated: "Commencing in the Spring of
1915 the plaintiff became infatuated
with a certain woman who calls her
self Doctor Anna M. Wheeler, and from
said time until the plaintiff left his
house the plaintiff spent most of his
time and attention upon said woman,
neglecting the defendant . . . and that
owing to his infatuation for said
woman the plaintiff left and aban
doned the defendant o n August 26,
1915."
December 29, 1915. Mr. Riddell filed
suit for divorce against Marie Riddell.
January 7, 1916, he filed an amended
complaint. January 29 she answered
the amended complaint with the charge
that he consorted with other women,
naming Fan Murray and Elsie Walters
specifically and referring to Dr.
Wheeler.
Mrs. Alex G. Riddell, at their resi
dence. 850 Hancock street, contradicted
in many particulars Dr. Anna Wheeler's
story of the triangular relations which
estranged her husband and prompted a
suit for divorce.
"Dr. Anna Wheeler first came ihto
our lives after her husband, Dr. Glenn
Wheeler, left for Europe a, ye,ar ago
last January. I met her four years
before, and we were mere acquaint
ances. At that time, four years ago,
my husband was infatuated with an
other woman, but finally broke away
from her influence and . until Mrs,
Wheeler appeared we were very happy.
That was last Spring. She pretended
DRY
to be my friend all last Summer, and
I believed that she was. But. she poi
soned my husband against me. She
changed him entirely.
"Mr. Stephenson is not to blame for
my starting the suit for separate main
tenance. He had nothing to do with It.
I went to him and his wife in my
trouble, but they did not advise me.
It is my own act. I am glad to say
that Mr. and Mrs. Stephenson are now
living together happily, since she went
out of their lives, said Mrs. Kiaaeii.
Attorneys Roger Sinnott and John
Logan represent Mr. Stephenson in the
criminal libel case brought by Dr. Anna
Wheeler. Attorney Sinnott also repre
sents Mrs. Riddell in her suit for sepa
rate maintenance and the divorce pro
ceedings instituted by her husband. At
torneys W. A. Carter and Judge George
J. Cameron appear for Mr. Riddell. For
Dr. Anna Wheeler, Attorney Dibble, of
the firm of Malarkey, Seubrookr & Dib

OREGON! AN NEWS BUREAU, Wash

transmitted a report to Congress today
on the preliminary examination of the
Willamette River with a view to pro
viding a six-foot channel by means of
locks and dams between Oregon City,
Corvallis and Eugene.
The report says the proposed im
provement would require 26 locks and
dams between Eugene and Corvallis,
and 14 locks between Corvallis and
Oregon City, involving such a large
expenditure of funds that the desired
improvement is not justified, even if
local interests furnish half the funds.

Recreation Is Declared to Be
Good for Habitues of

LIMIT IS PUT ON STAKES
Play Must Not Bo for More Than
Five-Cent Ininch Checks, Is De
cision of Executive After
Social Survey Is Made.
Here's good news for the "boys" who
patronize the soft drink cafes and the
quick lunch counters of classic Burn
side street.
They are to be permitted to play
freeze out" for lunch checks after all
There has been a good bit of fuss
and fume over this question for the
laefe-few days, but it seems that the
incipient trouble was due entirely to
a misunderstanding, or a series, of mis
understandings, and now all parties in
terested in the situation are agreed on
the same thing:
That the men who play cards in the
Burnside-street resorts with a 5-cent
food check as the stake should not be
prosecuted on the technical plea that
they are guilty of gambling; neither
should the proprietors of those places
be prosecuted.
, City Officials See No Harm.
That is the opinion of Mayor Albee,
Municipal Judge Langguth and" Dr. W.
F. Ogburn, head of the department of
sociology at Reed College.
It appears that the Mayor and Dr.
Ogburn came near getting into a sharp
controversy over the question, but it
Is apparent now that mutual under
standing of what each was trying to
do was lacking.
For the last year or more, says the
Mayor, he has been working on plans
that will provide a permanent loung
ing place or club for the men who
were habitues of the saloons before
the prohibition law went into effect.
The Mayor held repeated conferences
with the proprietors of the Burnside
street saloons last year and encour
aged them to go into the business of
selling soft drinks and serving light
lunches at minimum prices. Acting on
his advice and in the hope of profiting
thereby, a number of saloon proprietors
turned their places into soft-drink
cafes and lunch counters. They have
attempted, they say. to conduct their
places in an orderly manner, to con
form to sanitary requirements in the
sale of food and drinks and observe
the law. It is noteworthy that none
of the Burnside-street resorts has been
accused of violating the prohibition
law.
"Freeseout" Played for Food.
But coincident with the passing of
the saloon the men's natural desire for
recreation sought' an outlet through
games of "freezeout" or other card
games in which the loser is made to
pay the winner.
In these Burnside-street places the
proprietors met this situation by sell
ing checks to the men at 6 cents each.
These checks were redeemable at face
value either In food or in soft drinks.
A single check, as a rule, is the stake
in a game. The police never have de
tected the men in the act of playing
for money. The proprietors never
cashed the checks in money.
All these particulars were revealed to
Dr. Ogburn and a group of Reed Col
lege students who have conducted a
social survey of the Burnside-street
district since the first of the year.
The same facts were brought out
through synchronous investigations by
Mayor Albee and other city officials.
But recently the proprietor and BOie
of the patrons of a North End resort
were brought, before Judge Langgutn
on a charge of gambling when the only
offense of which they stood charged
was the practice of playing cards in
the manner and under the conditions
heretofore described. They were con
victed and fined. Subsequently a simi
lar case was brought before Judge
Langguth from South Portland. A
conviction and fine also followed.
Social Worker Invent iRalc.
It was at this Juncture that Dr. Og
burn and members of the Oregon Civic
League, who are interested in social
welfare work, besougnt tne city orri
cials to permit the men in the Burnside-street
places as well as in similar
resorts in other parts of the city, to
play cards for food checks. They
pointed out that without this privilege,
many proprietors,' who were operating
on a narrow margin of profit anyway,
would be -forced out of business.
Following the visit by Dr. Ogburn.
the Mayor, accompanied by Judge
Langguth and City Attorney LaRoche,
went to the Burnside street resorts for
a personal investigation. They watched
the men at the card games ana investi
gated the transactions with the pro
prietors.! They could not find, they
report, that the men actually were
gambling for money.
I want to help tne Burnside street
resorts all that I can to continue oper
ating successfully so long as they don't
disobey the law," said the Mayor last
night. "I am convinced that they are
acting in good faith and that they have
been guilty of no violations. I know
of no reason to prosecute them or their
patrons for gambling so long as the
men play only for lunch checks."
Judge Langguth. expressed a similar
view.
So long as they don't play for money
I don't expect anyone to prosecute them
for gambling." he said.
