About 175 billiard enthusiasts gath
ered at Bowie & Caldwell's parlors
yesterday to see Willie Hoppe and Kojl
Yamada put on their exhibition of IS. 2
balkline billiards.
Hoppe won the afternoon session 400

Hoppe made the high run of the aft
ernoon, 98.
After the fame the Japanese put on
an exhibition of fancy, freakish and
difficult shots which did him credit.
He is pronounced by critics as being'
the greatest demonstrator of the masse
shot on earth. Some of the masse
shots done by him yesterday made one's
bead swim. The audience was kept
applauding during the entire period.
As far as the billiard game goes,
Hoppe has the steadier and better
stroke. When he made his run of 98
and the two runs of 77 It seemed im
possible for the wizard to miss.
Hoppe and Yamada arrived yesterday
morning from Everett, Wash.
Hoppo and R. B. Benjamin, who is
managing the tour, were kidding Ya
mada after yesterday afternoon's game
and exhibition. It seems that up until
that time he had not been invited to
a Japanese banquet held in his honor
in Portland.
"In almost every town we visit,"
said the champion, "Yamada is pulled
into a Japanese banquet, and there is
always a delegation waiting for him
when he arrives in a new town.
"When we left Seattle some of his
Japanese admirers presented him with
a huge Japanese cake, and he kept
me awake nearly all night munching
In his berth."

MICHIGAN ASKS CONTESTS
Manager Savage Thinks Tliat, After
Portland Plays Canadians for
World Title, YVay "Will Be
Open for Big Trip.
BY ROSCOB FAWCETT.
When the Portland hockeyists leave
Sunday night for Eastern Canada to
meet the champions of the National
Hockey Association for the world's
title it may be the start of quite an
extensive tour.
Manager Savage said yesterday that
he hoped to tour several big- Eastern
cities like Boston, New York, Pittsburg",
Cleveland and others before disbanding
for the year.
As these cities now support only ama
teur hockey, it will be necessary to pick
up another team in Eastern Canada af
ter the world's series to cart around
for exhibition purposes.
3Ik'hiKan Towiim Seek: GameN.
Several Michigan towns are also af
ter games en route.
Manager Savage is convinced ' that
Portland's opponents in the world's
series will be the Canadians, of Mon
treal. This team is now several
notches off to the front, with only a j
few more frames to be played. Most of
the members of this club are French
Canadians, three of them being former
members of tho Pacific Coast League.
These three men are Pitre, La Londe
and Skinner Poulin.
La Londe is perhaps one of the great
est hockeyists that ever played in the
West. It was the fuss over his draft
by the the Easterners that caused the
warfare between the -two big leagues
a couple of years ago and which broke
out afresh last Fall. The Easterners'
league was supposed to pay 5750 for
his draft, but balked when it came time
to fork over a check.
Klnanclnl Details Bared.
Manager Savage bared some of the
financial details of the big series.
Players on the winning team likely
will receive close to $350 and the play
ers on the losing aggregation around
$250. The series will be decided by
three out of five games, which means
that four and more likely five games
will be necessary to decide the cham
pionship. Thirty per cent of the gross receipts
of all games goes to the owners of the
rinks. Back there the rinks and the
hockey teams are owned separately.
Twenty-five hundred dollars is guaran
teed the Portland team as expenses and
all that remains is divided among the
players of the two teams 60 per cent
to the winners and 40 per cent to the
losers.
Style of Plar Divided.
Thus, if the gate receipts total only
$10,000, 30 per cent, or $3000. goes to
the rinks, $2500 is deducted for the
Portland expense guarantee, making a
total of $5500, and the balance $4500
is split amongst the players. Receipts
undoubtedly will eclipse $10,000 if the
series runs more than three games.
The first game of the series will be
played under the Eastern style, six
men to the side and no forward pass
ing anywhere in the rink. "Under this
style of play six men are always on the
ice on each side. If a player is dis
qualified his side is allowed to send a
substitute upon the ice at once.
Both Systems Tried On.
Seven-man hockey will be played In
the second game of the series and the
two different systems will then alter
nate to the finish of the series.
Both these styles were tried out
Monday night before a Portland aud
ience in the Portland-All Star game and
the six-man brand proved about as
popular as the white plague. At the
start of the third period a megaphone
man announced that it would be left
to the crowd whether the teams would
play seven or six-man hockey in the
third period.
His voice was then drowned out and
quite a number stood up when he
called for the six-man converts. No
body could hear him when he called
for seven-man votes and so the teams
began the period with only six men to
a side on the ice.
When the crowd saw the blunder that
had. been made it set up a terrific holler

and the hubbub continued until the
management "got wise" and scurried a
couple more players out onto the ice.

BY BILLY EVANS,
American League Umpire.
WHEN is what appears to be a force
play, which makes the third out
and retires the side, not a force out? It
would seem that there could be no such
a play, yet it came up in a game last
Summer. It was all made possible by
an existing doubt as to whether an
outfielder had caught or trapped a tiy
ball. A belief on the part of a base
runner that the ball had been caught
and a ruling by the umpire that it had
not be-en caught precipitated the trou
ble. Incidentally the decision played
a big part in the final result of the
game.
m
The play came up in the last half
of the ninth inning. Two were down,
the bases filled and the team in the
field needed two runs to win the game.
The batter hit a short fly ball to right
field. The runner on first realized
that if the two runners ahead of him
scored it meant the ball game, jogged
down to second, all the time watching
the outfielder try for the catch. In the
meantime the runners on second and
third were tearing for the plate like
mad, with the two runs needed to win.
Now for the complication.
After a desperate try the fielder man
aged to reach the ball; he either made
a most wonderful catch or a most skill
ful trap of the ball. The runner from
first had reached second on the play
and he apparently thought the fielder
had caught the ball, because he started
for his bench. The fielder also started
in the direction of the clubhouse. Then
it was made evident that the umpire
had ruled, the ball a trapped ball. In
stantly there was confusion. The runner
originally on first and who had reached
second was at the time about midway
between first and se-cond. Not desiring
to be classed as a '"bone" and deciding
to play it safe, he dashed for second
again. The fielder in the meantime had
thrown the ball to the second baseman,
who had touched the bag before the
runner could regain possession of the
bag.
Immediately the question arose as to
whether the two runs scored on the
hit, which gave the team at bat enough
runs to win, were legal. The team in
the field naturally put up the claim
that the runner originally on first had
been forced at second on the play B.a0
that since no runs can be scored on a
force', third out, that the two runs
should be wiped off the slate, which
would give the game to the team in
the field by a one-run margin ,
The umpire in charge of tho game
contended that it was impossible to
make a force play at a base to which
the player was entitled. Had the run
ner gone within a few inches of sec
ond and failed to touch it and then
started for the bench, believing the ball
had been caught, it would have been
possible to have made a force play on
him. In the case cited the runner had
touched second, which gave him the
right to that base, and consequently it
was impossible to force a man at a
base to which he was entitled. The only
, way a runner could have been retired
at such a base would have been to
touch him with the ball before he got
back, and since both runners would
have scored prior to such action, the
out, had it been so made, would have
i had no effect on the score.

M'CHEDIE SEES AGGIES WORK
Squad of 50 Baseball Players Prac
tices in Big. Gymnasium.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL
LEGE, Corvallis, March 7. (Special.)
A squad of 50 baseball players of all
degrees of ability turned out yesterday
afternoon at the Oregon Agricultural
College for indoor practice under the
trained eye of Walter McCredie, who
arrived from Portland at noon to spend
a week teaching the candidates some
of the fundamentals of baseball.
Due to the rainy weather and conse
quent sogginesa of the diamond it is
not probable that the team will get
any outdoor work this week. How
ever, the Armory affords ample space
for the limbering up of stiff muscles
and light batting practice. McCredie
soent considerable time with the catch
ers and first basemen in the afternoon.
Second base is to be the most close
ly contested of any position on the
team. Bissett. the football star; Dave
Wilson, former Portland Academy
player, whose only weakness is before
fast curve pitching, Seeley, also of
Portland, and Captain Heinle Loof, are
all prospects at the keystone corner.
VARIOUS seasons bring various
shifts in the doddering dope. No
one -would ever charge this remarkable
statement to the brain of riato or
Aristotle, but that doesn't prevent its
truth, nor its qualifications for a lead
ing paragraph.
. About Pitchers. -
Year after year early Spring interest
in baseball has been raised around the
promise of young pitchers recruits
breaking in or youngsters who have
shown something after a year's trial.
1916 is another year. Young pitchers
carry but little interest. The bulk of
fandom interest is now- gathered
around the most remarkable flock of
veterans that ever reached the last
rims of their prime together. The game
has never before known as many stars
of yesterday in the box who are so un
certain about tomorrow's returns.
The Record Crop.
Take a look fit the long list of those
lifted to stardom who either had a
bad year last season and hope to come
back, or else have reached such ad
vanced pitching ages that 1316- if a
most uncertain period for the display
of their wares:

Rucker 31
Bender :i 1-
Marquard - - 1
Wood 8
Cheney SO 4
3ame 4 3
TValsn 34 12
Peering Abend.
There are two types of cases here.
Mathewson, Brown and Plank have all
crossed 35. They have all seen over 12
years' service. They are about due to
drop back beyond fame's skyline.
Bender is another veteran who has
seen 12 years' service, and so has out
lasted the average by many campaigns.
More than one of these might have a
big year. But there would be no great
surprise if they should fail.
The Other Type.
But there is another type hanging in
the balance. Rube Marquard and Joe
Wood are but 26. BUI James is but
win smokers because they find the blend of
choice Turkish and choice Domestic tobaccos so
refreshing; because they appreciate the absence
24. All three are big. powerful fellows
in their early prime, in fine physical
shape. .
Last season, even with a sore arm.
Joe Wood won IS games out of 20
starts. His arm feels better this Spring
than it has felt in two years. There is
no rerson, then, why Smokeball Joe
shouldn't return to the land of glory.
The future of James also depends
upon his ability to eradicate a kink in
his right shoulder. James won 26
games in 1914 and lost seven; in 1915
he won six games and lost four. Some
thing went astray in a vital spot and
Bill hit the chutes. Sometimes they
get over this and sometimes they don't.
The record of 1916 alone can tell the
story.
Marquard's Cnne.
The career of Rube Marquard is still
another matter. Rube is only 26. There
is nothing the matter with his arm.
He takes good care of himself.
In 1911 Marquard won 24 games and
lost seven: in 1912 he won 26 and lost
11; in 1913 he won 23 nnd dropped 10.
But in 1914 and 1915 he won but 23
games all told, while losing 32. A drop
from a steady average of .700 to .400 is
quite a slip.
But other stars in the past have
drawn off seasons; and since the re
nowned Rube's left shoulder and elbow
are O. K., he should have no great
worry ahead, especially with Robinson
ready to take him back in hand.
Hon About Cheney?
Robby has another uncertain pros
pect but a possible return to stardom
in Larry Cheney. The ex-Cub's-case is
like that of Marquard's. In 1912, his
first year up. Cheney won 26 games
and lost but lu. In 1913 and 1914
Cheney took part in 104 games, win
ning a majority of his starts. He was
an iron horse for work.
But in 1915 Cheney only won eight
games against 11 defeats. If Marquard
and Cheney should return with their
best stuff, Brooklyn would breeze in
with the best pitching staff in base
ball. Of the Ten.
We have named over ten stars above
who have all had greatness. Eight of
the ten have helped produce flag
winners and have been vital factors in
world series games. Rucker and Cheney
alone have never been on flag-winning
lineups.
Only three of the list are now under
30 and only three are over 35. How
many of the ten will have oldtime sea
sons and figure up among the leaders?
Will Chief Bender be able to do as
well for the Phillies as he did for
Connie Mack? The Chief is only 33,
and his arm has never bothered him to
any great extent.
But no one can tell. But it is the list
of problems of this sort that makes
1916 one of the most interesting cam
paigns to look to that baseball has yet
known.
There has never been a year before
when so many great pitching stars of
the past were hanging in the balance.

Municipal Golf Links
4 liidlanapollo, Ind.
WITH a population of 233.650 in
.1910, not much more pan Port
land's population. Indianapolis is
extremely well fixed for municipal
golf courses. The first course proved
so popular among the middle classes
that it wasn't long before the ctiy was
called upon to construct another and
now Indianapolis boasts of three 18
hole links and of one nine-hole links.
Small fees are charged for the use
of the links and of the lockers. The
season permit for men is $8. the month
ly permit $3 and the daily 50 cents.
Lockers are rented for $5 a season or
$1 a month. The women pay $5 a sea
son, which includes locker rent.
The Indianapolis courses are very
well kept and the park board spends
quite a lot of money on them. The op
erating expense on the 18-hole courses
is 15689 and the revenue 13595 and the
operating expense on the nine-hole
course is $1688 and the revenue J542.
Approximately 40,000 players use the
links each season.
Superintendent Lowrey has just an
nounced plans for a municipal golf
championship that is attracting a great
deal of attention among the wielders
of the mashie and niblic. The plan
calls for a course championship among
the players at each links and the win
ners to meet for the city championship.
In addition to the public links In
