Washington State Eleven May Not Play Here in 1916, if Not Against Multnomah. ATHLETIC DIRECTOR VISITS Dr. J. Frederick Bohler Stops Oxer . Way to Corvallls Willi Mat- men Trip by Michigan Is Opposed by Faculty. BY EARL, R. GOODWIN, Vnless the Multnomah Amateur Ath letic club schedules a football game vith the Washington State College, it begins to look as if the 1915 champions will not be seen in action on .viuimu- mah Field during the 1916 campaign. This much was made known yesterday Iv Dr. J. Frederick Bohler, dire-itor of athletics at the Pullman. Wash., in stitution. Dr. Bohler was in Port land -vesterdav on his -way to Corvallls Or., where he sends his wrestlers aeralnst the Oregon Aggies tonight. "We had planned on bringing the t'niverslty of Michigan eleven out West this Fall." said Dr. Bonier yesterday at the Orecon Hotel, "but before I left Pullman last night I received word that the. Michigan faculty frowned on the idea of making such a long trip. "Michigan is slated to end Us sea son on Nevember 18 against Pennsyl vania, and we had been figuring on having the team out this way the fol lowing week. According to the sched ule which was drawn up at the annual Northwest conference meeting in Port land last December, we are billed to meet the Oregon Aggies on Multnomah Field. October 14, but that is impossible now. "We are almost compelled to play two big games at home because of the student body, and we had scheduled Michigan and Idaho for our campus next season. Now that Michigan has called off all hostilities with us it is necessary for us to have the Oregon Aggies at home in October. ' The annual Washington State-Oregon Aggies contest was played at Cor vallis last year and now It is its turn to come to us. I will try to have Coach William H. Dietz and nis foot hall players on parade before Portland people on Multnomah Field during the coming season, but the indications are that Multnomah Amateur Athletic club will have to form the opposition some time during the middle of October." Coach Bohler left for Corvallls last night with five of his mat artists. They are entered in a dual meet with the Oregon Aggies tonight. In the party were Captain J. H. Savage, 145 pounds; N. P. Hauberman, 108; J. H. Clark. 115; R. L. Taylor, 135; and C. Pearson, 175. Baseball is now the rage at Wash ington State College.

Washington State College and the Oregon Agricultural College fought it out for the baseball championship last Spring, the Washingtonians finally winning after a strenuous three-game series. From present indications. Coach Bohler feels that the same teams wilj battle for premier honors again this year. If so. Washington State will have to go to Corvallis, as the Aggies were visitors in Pullman, Wash., last season. Baseball in the Northwest conference If run different from the other forms of athletes. The University of Idaho, Whitman College and Washington State College play for the championship of the eastern section of the conference, while the Oregon Aggies, University or Oregon and the University of Wash ington are slated to battle for the ivestern title. The winner of the east plays the winner of the western divi sion for the championship of the cir cuit. Washington State College has made quite, a record in the athletic world or the Pacific Coast during the last 12 months. Three major championships have been captured by the athletes representing the Pullman school. Coach Bohler had charge of the 1915 baseball champions. Coach William II.

Fof a young tad of 84 Portland's new firstsacker, Owen tjuenn, has tiad rather an interesting career en the diamond. Quenn has been in the major league and in the outlaw Federal League and yet he has managed to keep within he baseball laws at all stages. 1 started playing ball at Kingston, N. Y., in the New York-New Jersey League in 1913,'' explained the black haired Irish lad yesterday: ''In July Frank Chance brought me down to the New York Americans to sub under Hal Chase. When Chase was traded to Chicago foe Babe Borton, Chance sent me away down to Galveston in the Texas League. "In 1914 New York recalled both myself and big Williams. Shortly after wards I was steered out cf the big leagues again, this time ttj New Lon don, Conn., of the Eastern Association. This league blew up like a pigeon's egg and dropped ten stories. They tried to hold me but I beat them to it. When Secretary Farrell declared mo a free agent, I talked with Lee Ma gee, man v.w immmmmimm& j ager of the Brooklyn Federals, and he told me to go down to Springfield In the Colonial League. Most of the play ers in this league were owned by the Brooklyn Federals. "Ten days after I reported I was in jured and had to lay off for three weeks and Springfield tried to cut my salary. Of course, I quit and went over to Syracuse in the New York State League where I hit .347. Portland drafted me in the Fall. I stand 5 feet 11 inches "tall and that is enough for a first baseman. I think I can make good out here." Quenn dabbles in politics to some ex tent in his home at Tarrytown. Last year he ran for Receiver of Taxes or some such Job paying $8500 a year. Needless to say he was not elected or he would not be here. Manager McCredie is placing much confidence in the ability of Jimmy Clark to fill a niche in his pitching staff. Clark is in better condition than any man in the camp. Evidently he had been on the back lots at Everett or Seattle, wherever he practices law, before reporting. It proves how really anxious the former University of Wash- ton star is to make good. Clark twirled in the Northwestern League for Vancouver for three years up to last season ' and was rated as one of the most consistent performers In the circuit. When Brown handed him over to the misfit Aberdeen, he paved the way for Jimmy's only bad year in his career. After being shifted around between Aberdeen and Spokane, between kicks over slashes in his pay check, Jimmy finally wound up in Seattle Just at the end of the year. He saya he begged Tealey Raymond to be allowed to start that historic post-season game for Seattle against the Portland Coast Leaguers. Raymond chose Schmutz. Portland knocked the spots, off big Charley and Clark was sent in, and it was his showing against the Beavers that earned him his present oppor tunity with Portland. Four years ago Bill Stumpf and Gus Fisher were teammates on the trial bench of the New York Americans. Another recruit was Bennle Kauff. Kauff got the tinware. So did Stumpf and Fisher. Kauff is now back in the big show, with the New York Giants, and is touted as second only to Ty Cobb, To fltumpf and Fisher, however, he is the same old Kauff of 1912, and neither of the Beavers think he will be muoh of a star in the National circuit. If Carson Blgbee finds the pace too fast for him in the Coast Lea rue he says he will be willing to accept a berth in the Northwest clroult. M'CREDIE'S MEN APPRECIATED Darkey Porter at Training Camp Feels Mental Thrill en Arrival, SACRAMENTO, Cal., Portland Spring Training Camp, March 17, (Special,) There is no set standard for brows as there Is for $ust measurements. 4 They are high or low, according to the perspective. Every now and again the baseball writer flings "Bone" at the toiling athletes of the diamond, but here in Sacramento the negro porter in the Sacramento Hotel declares he la overcome with Joy to see the Portland players again. "It's suttinly an eddication to have dem around." is the way Sam puts it. Who knows? CLARK'S CRAFTY CCE WINS SI. A. Pctrie, of Chicago, Is Outdone ii Pocket Billiards. CHICAGO, March 17.

About 20 men answered Coach Yakel's call for baseball in the middle of the week and hard practice was begun at once.

The air is filled with bacteria which is taken Into the mouth and nose through the process of breathing. When the body is in a healthy condition no harm results. But with our modern methods of indoor living and sedentary occupations, the mucous membranes are usually not able to "throw-off this harmful bacteria, making catarrh a very common ailment. These germs breed and multiply, causing inflamma tion, the blood rushes to the mem branes to fight off the bacilli. When the blood Is in a vigorous condition its "defensive" efforts are successful. Otherwise the cold "hangs on" turns into catarrh. Catarrh is a chronic Inflammation of the mucous membranes. Mucous mem branes are the lining on all the inter nal cavities of the body.
