SPORT CARD DELAYED
CARMVAL SET Jl'LY 4 POSTPONED
FOR PRESENT.
Counter Attractions, and Threatening;
Weather Given as Cause by
Manaser Merrill.
Threatening weather and counter at
tractions, such as the athletic pro
gramme on Multnomah Field, the picnic
of the Loyal Order of Moose and o'her
gatherings, have caused Fred T. Mer
rill, manager of the Rose City Speed
way Association and the Rose City
Athletic Club, to postpone the first an
nual carnival of sports scheduled for
July 4.
Manager Merrill will. feature Johnny
Coulon. of Chicago, and Billy Mascott,
of Portland, Indoors at the Rose City
Athletic Club next Monday night, July 3.
Nest In importance to this bout is a
return engagement between Jack Sims
and Al Sommers, which terminated in
so much grief for Sommers at the last
Rose City Club show.
The free carnival of sports will be
offered to the public at the Rose City
Speedway track a week or two after
next Monday night's show. Wrestling
and boxing will be on this programme,
which will be held in the first open-air
boxing arena ever erected in the North
west.
In a letter received by Manager Mer
rill last night from Charley Cutler,
who wrestled Ad Santell in San Fran'
Cisco last night. Cutler said that he
would be pleased to take on Jack Tay
lor, the Spokane heavyweight. This
match will be staged July 10 at th
Rose City Speedway.
Johnny Coulon will arrive In Port'
land tomorrow afternoon and will at
once place himself under the wing of
Mike Butler. He will start preparing
for his contest with Mascott imme
diately.
Manager Merrill, of the Rose City
Athletic Club. Is dickering with
Kid Williams. The East Side club's
boss wants Williams to meet Mascott
if the later makes a good showing with
Coulon.
Ad Santell, the heavyweight wrestler
of San Francisco, has written the Rose
City Club management saying that h
would come to Portland if a match
could be arranged.
Tex Vernon may meet Joe Gorman in
one of the preliminaries to the Coulon
Mascott match to be held Monday night
Instead of Jockey Bennett. Manager
Merrill fears that Bennett is too old
to give the youthful Gorman a genuine
contest.
Sally Salvadore has written Ierrill
asking to be placed on the card.
Salvadore may meet Walter Knowlton
in one of the other preliminaries or
may be featured with some lightweight
as a main event at a later out-of-doors
show to be held at the Rose City Speed
way.
The Sacramento lightweight has been
boxing regularly of late: in fact, he has
had ten bouts since February 22. He
is matched for three bouts between
now and July 15, but If he had an op
portunity of coming north would prob
ably arrange his matches accordingly.
Salvadore is at present at his home
in Sacramento. He has met and de
feated Willie Hoppe, Willie Robinson
"Sailor Ted" Meredith, "Sailor Frankie"
Kirk and has. lost a tough contest to
Ralph Gruman. Salvadore has had over
100 contests and is now only 21 years
old.

afternoon to hook up with Earl Con
ners, bantamweight of Tacoma, over

Angels' Manager Declares That Both
of Tseiie Yoongsters Are Dne to
Co Higher Soon.
Nearly every baseball manager has
one or two players on whom he dotes.
Walter McCredie likes Noyes. Sothoron
and Guisto. Cliff Blankenship is strong
for Bunny Brief and Pitcher Paul Fit-
tery, and so it goes.
In his aggregation there are two
youngsters whom Manager Frank
Chance thinks are destined to go to
the big show next Spring. They are
Pitcher Horstman and Catcher Johnny
Bassler.
Oscar Horstman was picked up las
year by Los Angeles. He is only 23
years old and this is but his second
year playing the National pastime. He
learned to play the game on the sand
lots at Alma. Mo. This youngster
weighs 170 pounds and is five feet 11
inches high.
The 'show me kid has won seven
and lost five games for the Angelic
horde since the 1916 season started and
is rapidly controlling his wildness,
Chance uses him for a relief hurler
quite frequently. The Missouri boy has
been responsible for but 2.3 runs pe
game in his 12 starts.
Johnny Bassler is one of the real
sensations of the Pacific Coast League
this season. This youngster, who won
be able to vote for another year yet,
has already had two years' experience
in the American League. He came to
the Angels last year from Cleveland.
In 1914 Bassler participated in 43 games
with the Cleveland majors. He hit for
an average of .182 and fielded .944. He
hitting near .300 at present. Bassle
and Boles, the veteran, are doing the
Angels backstopping. Fred Carlsch
was with the Cleveland club during the
1914 season and he caught In a few
more games than did Bassler and hi
hitting and fielding marks were better,
