Lefts r.nd Rights and didn't think anything of wearing duck pants In midwinter. The boys started nicely yesterday. Another win today won t go bad at alL Last Sunday's games closed the 25th week of the 1916 schedule of the I'a- ific Coast League. Five weeks re main to be worked out. Portland has one more series with each of the other five clubs. Charley Schmidt, Vernon's latest catcher, once aspired to be a profes sional fighter. Schmidt was some scrapper on his own ball club, and after he had cleaned up in a number of club house battles, got the bee in his bon- nect to enter the squared circle. One Winter he got his chance, being sent against a comparatively unknown boxer for his tryout, but who. never theless, knew how to use his mitta 'Back to baseball for me now and forever," muttered Charley, when he finally rolled over and opened hi eyes, so the story runs. A lot of base ball players have had the boxing bug. yet few. if any. of them ever amounted to much. They soon find that they don t belong. Winning in a clubhouse brawl and whipping a guy who knows how to step around in a ring are tw u widely different propositions. Lea Houck was one athlete who won some renown both as a boxer and ballplayer. He was fair in both lines. Allan Sutton Sothoron's advice to young pitchers is: "Shun the curve ball." The Stellar chucker of the Beavers points out a truth that curves strain an arm more than do a naif dozen straight speeders. "A straight, fast one is just as hard for the ordinary player to hit as a curver." adds Sothoron. ''I use curves only when I want to mix up my de livery or when I face a man who is a murderer of straight shoots." before he leaves for big game in New York. On October 3 he meets Lowe Simms. Mike Butler's crack 175- pounder. In the main event of a card to be given by the Western Athletic Club in the Rose City Athletic Club hall. Kendall says he is In the pink of con dition for a bout and Simms has Just returned from Boise. Idaho, where he boxed Battling Jim Johnson. The bout should be a good one.
