FIVE BOUTS IN SCHEDULE Approximately 12 00 Fans Attend Match Staged by Rose City Athletic Club Ad Schacbt, of Seattle. Is Referee. Etfdle Brewster Pinkman, of Seattle caught Muff Bronson on an off night la Ft night and with a couple of ribs which still bothered him aa a result of a recent injury end won a deci sion over the Portland boy in the main event of the Hose City Athletic Club's (how. Other results follow: 1S5 pounds Billy Williams won de cision over Jack Wagner. 122 pounds Joe Farrell. of Oregon City, stopped Freddie Lough in thr-e rounds. 145 pounds Pete Mitchle stopped Cliff Reed, of Los Angeles, in five rounds. 140 pounds Carl Martin, of Oregon City, won decision over Winston Gower, ct Seattle. Branson Starts Well. In the main event Bronson started off like a winner. By landing three hard right-hand punches he piled up a decided edge on his hard-hitting oppo nent. The local lad looked like a euro winner and held the Sound City mauler even until the fifth. Hard eroacks to Muffs ribs hurt hlra in the early rounds and Just as the bell rang in both the second and third rounds Pin km an landed hard right - arm jmnches on Bronson's Jaw, which hurt him. This caused Muff to be careful In the fifth, when both boys were cau tioned by the referee to mix things mid to lead. Both were to blame, for tip until this stage neither appeared anxious to be copped with the other's right glove. But Plnkman pulled a little stage play by remarking: "Fight or quit." Championship Is Retained. Although there were not many punches landed in the fifth, Plnkman earned a good shade, for he landed a few more and they were hard ones. He took the sixth by a good margin. lleferee Ad Schacht, of Seattle, gave Pinknan the verdict. They are 183 pounders and Plnkman retains the lightweight championship of the Is'orthwest and Canada. There were only five bouts presented, es Dick Burke failed to show up for his scheduled clash with Frank Ken dall. Pete Mitchle hammered Cliff Reed Into submission in five rounds after knocking him down in the fourth. Joe Farrell knocked Freddie Lough through the ropes in the first round of their tilt, but as It happened Just as the closing bell rang no one seemed to notice that Lough was hurt. He hit the canvas in each of the two succeed ing cantos and in the third the referee could have counted a million, as far as he was concerned. Billy Williams showed a lot of class polishing off Jack Wagner and won the verdict. Carl Martin, 125-pounder, outboxed Winston Gower, 140 pounder, and took a decision in the curtain raiser. Ad Schacht, of Seattle, refereed the main event and the Mitchie-Reed scrap, while Roy Kendall handled the rest. Carl liJvans kept time. Approxi mately 1200 fans attended. What Officials Thought of Opening Game. A LLAN T. BAUM, president Pacific XJL Coast League A wonderful con test for opening day and a fine crowd, considering the weather. I don't be lieve war with Germany will iurt base ball. I look for a great season. Seven thousand persons attended the opening Kame in salt iake and there was snow In the outfield. Henry Berry, president San Francisco club It would have been no disgrace If our boys had lost the game, but I am certainly glad we got as good as a draw, considering the fact that Port land outhlt us 9 to 4. Oldham had his trlke-out apparatus working in good order, but my hat Is off to Bill Fincher. Judge William Wallace McCredie, president Portland club The Beavers look to be the goods. Portland showed that It is not a bad ball city by turning vui ouvu lans on a gloomy day. I be lieve that Portland will be in the race nil j ear. v aiter aicureaie, manager of the Beavers We should have won. Had not Corhan pulled off a wonderful piece f fielding on Borton's hard-hit liut-i in me nintn, the contest wuuia nol nave gone Into extra innings. xxarry woivenon, manager of the Beals I hope we won't have to stack vp against many more pitchers like x-incner mis weeK.

OLFERS are being urged to food on the unused portions of their links. The Portland Golf Club nas already taken steps in that tllrec tion. You may Ehortly read in the de tailed account of some match that -Billy Gotelli sliced his drive into the lettuce to the left and that his brassie shot landed him in the lima beans, 175 yards short of the green, and a bril liant recovery brought him to the car rot patch, but he lost his ball in the radish patch while trying to avoid th onion hazard, finally holing out in 8 and winning the match. Oh-h-h! Fvery golfer's filled with sorrow, For he fears UDon the morrow All the links will be converted into farms And upon the velvet courses Plows and harrows drawn by horses Fill his sleeping hours with tremors and alarms. a While golfers are making sacrifices. It might not be a bad Idea to grow something in the bags, meanwhile car tying the clubs under the arm. A golf D1H1MA1I rumi bag filled with soil would make an ideal receptacle for a stalk of alfalfa, inasmuch as the plant has an unusually long and elaborate root system. - Speaking of truck garden golf, you'll soon hear these terms: "Lost ball don't it beet all?" and "Oh, It'll turnup!" Jess Wlllard Et Al. There once ws gloomy old blighter Who held down a Job as sport writer; When rou mentioned the war He always got sore. Ton see, h knew many a fighter. There Is much agitation to have the spare spots on the baseball diamond planted with potatoes. Who knows? It may yet happen that the outer gar dens at the ball parks will be a garden In truth as well as in name. The Tigers have a Cobb in the outfield. Portland has one Farmer. Uncle Sam's Income Is said to be $50,000,000 a year, which Is almost as much as Jess Willard wants to get In the ring again. "Twenty thousand for an opener!" Play ball! a Get In the parade. Be a booster! Those baseball boosters were cer tainly busy "cusses" yesterday getting things In shape. Mayor Albee says his old soupbone is in fine shape. Judge McCredie's grin was a little wider yesterday afternoon. Little won der. If this afternoon is as nice ss yesterday there'll surely be a mob out at "Vajjghn street. The leadlncr cronasranda now Is "In crease the food supply." There is the chance for the rolf clubs to get in some good licks, for many of the or ganizations throughout the country possess unused land. This runs from a half acre to two and three acres. John Harvey lcfcats Joe Rivers. NEW YORK, April 24. Johnny Har vey, of this city, knocked out Joe Rivers, of Los Angeles, in the seventh round of a 10-round match here to night.

PORTLAND Western Shippers Asked to Attend Hearing on Pro posed Freight Rates. COURSE TO BE DETERMINED Railroads Are Proposing Extraor dinary Advance, In Face of Gain In Net Revenues, Says State ment ol Oregon Commission. SALEM. Or.. April 24. (Special.)

At that time, if it is determined to take any action in the matter, the commissions of the four states proba bly will determine upon what course will be pursued. After considerable telegraphing back and forth among the commissions Port land was selected for the meeting place as being the most centralized city of the Coast and Intermountain states that will be represented at the con ference. , . Increase Haa Been Asked. "The public Is advised that the car riers In official and Western classifi cation territories have made applica tion to the Interstate Commerce Com mission for a general advance in freight rates on the theory that they need additional revenue because of the added expense Incurred through the operation of the Adamson law." states the commission in a statement issued today. "It is hoped that the shipping Inter ests of Oregon may consider the mat ter of sufficient Importance to have at least one representative present at the conference in order that public senti ment concerning this question of a gen eral advance in rates by carriers may be ascertained. "The National Livestock Shippers' Protective League, in co-operation with the American National Livestock As sociation, National Wool Growers, Na tional Livestock Exchange, National Meat Packers' Association, Southern Cattle Men's Association, Iowa Corn Belt Meat Producers' Association, Kan sas State Livestock Association, Cat tle Raisers' Association of Texas. Texas Livestock Shippers' Protective League, Panhandle & Southwestern? Livestock Association, State Livestock Associa tion of Illinois, and North Dakota So ciety of Equity, as well as other ship pers and organizations, have entered emphatlo protest against the proposed general advance and urge upon the In terstate Commerce Commission the right of shippers to a full hearing as provided by law in order that all ques tions respecting the right of the rail' roads to advance their rates be thor oughly Investigated and determined in accordance with the act to regulate commerce. Facts to De Submitted. "They asked the Interstate Com merce Commission to take no action with regard to the. applications of the railroads for these advances until they have had full opportunity to consider the matters submitted by the railroads to the commission in support of such proposed advance of rates and afforded time and opportunity to prepare and submit fully to the commission the facts and arguments in opposition to the proposition which the railroads have made. The railroads of the United States are proposing an extraordinary ad vance in freight rates although, their net revenue above al expenses last year was greater than ever before in their history. Under the provisions of the act to regulate commerce the bur den of proof Is upon the railroads to Justify such advances, and the public Is entitled to a full investigation by the Interstate Commerce Commission. "The purpose of the conference of tire Western commissions is to consider and determine what course of action should be taken on behalf of and for the pro tection of the shipping public in regard to these advances.

EVIL WAYS LEFT BEHIND Governor Pardons Young Woman Convicted for Kidnaping and Sec ond Marriage Has Provided Comfortable Home. Mollie Bower has made fcood. The pretty divorcee, whose unhappy early lite led to her being denied her baby girl by the Juvenile Court, from the custody of which two sensational attempts were made by the mother to kidnap the 'youngster, has been par doned by Governor Withycombe and her child haa been restored. Arrangements which crowned with success the hard fight of the young woman and brought satisfaction or tne intense mother longing were completed within the last few days. It was a transfigured Mollie Bowers who visited the Juvenile Court yester day to thank Judge Tazwell for the re turn of the child. it wajs a guonani, smiling-eyed Marlon Bowers, aged 6. who waved good-bye and promised to visit the Judge often. "I'll come back soon tomorrow" promised the child. Young. Woman Is Pretty. Mollie Bowers Is but a child herself In years, despite an unfortunate early marriage and experiences which have brought a few lines of care about de cidedly attractive brown eyes. "Pretty," as applied to Mollie Bowers, is not the stereotyped reference to any young woman who breaks Into the news, par scrlption. Bowers la not the young -woman's name today, but It Is the one by which she is known to readers or tne news, and the one 6he bore until her second marriage a real love match this time, ot many months ago. Mother and child have been sep arated for a year and a half, but their reunion by court order will be per manent If Mollie Bowers shows the same strength of character and will to ticularly a divorcee. It is accurate de live right for the sake of her daugh ter that she has shown since tne sep aration. A legal battle over little Marion Bowers began when the child was only 3 years old. Judge Gatens, then Ju venile Judge, three years ago, made Marlon a ward of the court after Mr. and Mrs. Bowers had appeared and each made charges that the other was incompetent to care for her. The girl was taken to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Milton Grant In Dallas. Mrs. Bowers and her brother, Clell Stump, hired an automobile, seised the child in the yard or tne Grants in Pallas and took her to Salem before Deputy Sheriirs rrom -oik vounty ap Drehended the kidnapers. Litigation for custody of the child went to the Supreme Court, which de cided that the Juvenile Court of Mult nomah County still had Jurisdiction. In January, 1916, Juvenile Judge Cleeton .ordered Marion made a ward of the court, and took her from her mother. Mollle Bowers staged a sec ond Wdnaping and fled into Washing ton, again with her brother. She was traced, brought back to Portland and the child again placed with a private High-Grade Suit Your Measure at S2 The Largest and Most Complete Stock of Woolens in Portland to Select From W, Jacobson Portland's Finest Tailoring Establishment for Men's Suits at Moderate Prices family. Meanwhile Mrs. Bowers was indicted by the grand Jury for kid naping. The girl-mother was paroled by Cir cuit Judge Morrow on her promise to live so that she might deserve her child. This parole was ended by the pardon of Governor Withycombe. Mollie Bowers married again, this time to a clean chap, who has en shrined her In the first real home she has known for many years. She has renounced companions of evil days and has made a home for her daughter a home In which the Juvenile Court Is placing Marlon with the conviction that the child -will grow up In proper sur roundings and with a mother love, which has surmounted much fo the girl's sake. $24,093 SUIT IS DISMISSED Case of Mrs. Zuckernian Held to Be In Federal Court Jurisdiction.
