PALZER, SHOT BY FATHER, DIES
Boxer Receives Fatal Wounds in
Trying to Shield His Mother.
FERGUS FALLS. Mont.. July 29. Al
Palzer, noted prizefighter, is dead and
his father, Henry Palzer, is held on a
charge of manslaughter for the slaying
of his son. In defending his mother
from an attack of Henry Palzer, Al
suffered two wounds, a slight one in
an arm and another from a bullet which
went through his abdomen and caused
his death today in a hospital at Per
ham, to which the boxer ran after the
shooting, despite his grievious injury.
Paddy SIglin.
Paddy Siglin, the Beavers'
Ecrappy little Irish second base
man. Is the only regular left In
the infield. Borton, Rodgers, Hol
locher and Pinelll all are out of
the game. Paddy is doing his
best to help the team win, getting
four hits in yesterday's contests.
Mrs. Palzer was shot, but not seriously
hurt.
Palzer was born In Osslan. Ia, and
lived in recent years at Decorah, la.
It is said here that Palzer leaves lit
tle property. Of late years his ring
engagements have not been productive
of much money, and his liberality to
his family and to needy men of his
own profession cut into his earnings.

LEADERS, Oil ROAD,
FIND GOING TOUGH
Giants and White Sox Meet
With Reverses Away From
Their Home Grounds.
TIGERS IN THIRD PLACE
St. Louis and Cincinnati Pass Phila
delphia in Week's Winning
Streak Sox Owe Lead to
Victories Over Boston.
NEW YORK, July 29. The leaders
in the National and American leagues
left their home grounds for the road
last week, and as a result found the
going harder and their leads cut down.
Twenty points were clipped from New
York's advantage in the National and
Chicago lost nine.
In the National, St. Louis and Cin
cinnati, on their home grounds to face
the Eastern Invasion, continued their
good work and both teams passed Phil
adelphia, while gaining on hew York.
Of five games played, St. Louis did
not lose one and Mathewson's men
won four out of five.
Giants' "Winning Streak Broken.
New York's winning streak of the
previous week was broken Monday by
Pittsburg and in two games against
Pittsburg and three against Chicago
New York won only two.
Chicago owed the maintenance of its
lead in the American to two victories
over Boston the first part of the week.
Against New York in six games the
last of the week the White Sox could
do no better than break even.
Red Sox Climb Fast.
Boston, after losing two games to
Chicago, met St- Louis at home in five
games and won every game of the
series. The Red Sox now are only two
games behind Chicago.
Cleveland showed no improvement,
while Detroit continued its good work
and New York improved over the pre
vious week, with the result that Sat
urday Cleveland and Detroit were tied
for third place in the race, with New
York only two games behind. The Ti
gers went into third place today when
Cleveland lost to Washington.
Of the 12 games played In the major
leagues Saturday, eight were won by
one run, six out of seven in the Ameri
can being decided by that narrow mar
gin. Four of the games went into ex
tra innings.
OLD TENXIS STARS TO 3IEET
Tacoma Banker and California Mag
nate Will Vie in Match Game.
TACOMA. Wash., July 29. (Special.)
Chester Thorne, millionaire banker,
is going to forget all he knows about
coupons, promissory notes and Liberty
bonds some day this week when he will
face H. Alexander, president of the Pa
cific Steamship Company, in the Pacific
Coast open tennis tourney. Alexander
likewise will cast aside thoughts of
steamship mergers, war risks and oce
anic trade when he takes up his
racquet.
Both Thorne and Alexander were
members of the old Owl Tennis Club
here years ago, but, since their time
has been taken up with big business
deals, they have let their tennis flunk.
It was a bet that brings them together
once more, and they will endeavor to
show the young bloods some new kinks
of sport.
ARMCOS PUT OUT OF RUNNING
Columbia Wins, 5 to 0 Bricklayers
Defeat Journal Team.
The Columbia Park nine trimmed the
Armco team yesterday at Columbia
Park. 5 to 0. Koontz and Meyers formed
the winning battery, opposed to Brown
Himes and Sterhoss. Captain Horton
of Columbia, hit a homer. This defeat
puts the Armcos out of the running
for the city independent championship.
The Bricklayers defeated the Jour
nal nine yesterday at Crystal Lake
Park. 7 to 5. Boland and Boland bat
teried for the winners, opposed to Hy
ronimus and Baylor.
The Building Trades tug-of-war team
won from the Metal Trades team by
nine inches.
The Bricklayers were composed of
players from Bill Heales' Kirkpatricks,
champions of the Chautauqua League.
Rosenthal and Evans Win.
CHICAGO, July 29. In an elaborate
social golf foursome at the Onwentsia
Club Saturday for the benefit of the
Navy League, Elaine Rosenthal, of Chi
cago, former western cnampion, ana
Charles Evans, Jr., National amateur
and open champion, defeated Alexa
Stirllne. of Atlanta, woman National
champion, and Robert Gardner, of Chi
caeo. by five points, scoring Dotn tni
low ball and the low total for the 18-
hole four-ball match.
Armstrong Beats Winterble.
MINNEAPOLIS. Minn.. July 29. Jo
seph J. Armstrong, of St. Paul, won
premier honors in the Northwestern
tennis tournament at the Deep Haven
courts Saturday, defeating V 1111am
Winterble, of Primghar, la., in straight
sets. 6-0, 6-3. Miss Marguerite Davis
of St. Paul, Western champion, cap
tured the woman's singles champion
ship by eliminating Miss Carrie Neel,

Bits of ShrapneL
T)ITCHER RED AMES, of the Card!
JL nals. waa a member of the world's
champion Giants in 1906 and is the only
member of that famous team who Is
still pastlmlng in the big show.

Lyle Bigbee is $50 ahead of nicotine.
That is, he is spending that amount of
money donated by the American To
bacco Company for hitting the Bull
Durham sign at Spokane.
m m m
The question of how old is Ann Is a
new one compared to "who is the third
outfielder?" Cobb and Speaker, we'll
admit are the kings, but who is the
third. Food for thought, boys.
Maybe it's Joe Jackson, and then
again maybe it's Rousch, and maybe
It's somebody else.
Members of some of the other clubs
in the American League say that Ray
Schalk. White Sox backstop and the
recognized peer of all catchers, is not
as effective as he was last year. They
claim his arm has lost its snap and
that he shows signs of overwork. That
may all be true, but he's In there be
hind the bat every day and the White
Sox seem to be getting along "tolerably
well."
Boy! Page "Father Time" and "Old
Man Fame." Eddie Plank is entitled
to an Introduction to both. He thinks
he will still be pitching good baseball
when he Is 60 years old. The veteran
is now 42 years old and getting better.
Eddie is like good tobacco. Just time
makes it better. Plank may have lost
some of his speed and sharp breaks on
his curve ball, but he has developed a
floater that will stop many a batsman
before the Gettysburg hero closes his
career. When Eddie sends up his
floater, it comes up there lookinir like
Zeppelin, but a good look is all the
batters get, for it's "swish" and your
out.
Perhaps Matty has been overworked.
but he's more than there this year.
The old master is going to stay in the
first division, or bust.
Sherwood Magee has a memory as
long as "Huck Finn's" list of escapades.
Every time he comes to New York he
makes an angry face at Umpire
Quigley. He simply can't get over a
decision Quigley made some time last
April when the Braves were in the big
city. Before you know it there'll be
another fistic encounter on the ball lot
between "Kid" Magee and "Young"
Quigley.
Now we hear they won't let "Dutch"
Reuther come to Portland, as he is too
valuable a utility man. Another mem
ber for the Walter Mails Nut Club.
The Phillies have not started any
spurt since they Joined Johnny Evers,
but it may require some time to bring
them up to Johnny's standard.

.300 IS HARD TO ATTAIN
COASTERS IN MAJOR LEAGUES
LOW IX HATTING LIST.
Pltcbera From West Seem to Uphold
Their Records Better Than Slug
gera of Pacific Fame.
None of the coasters now in the ma
jors seem to be able to hit .300. True
enough, the former coasters are hitting
the ball hard but they are 'nly hitting
in the pinches and not consistently.
Peckinpaugh, a former Beaver short
stop, is only hitting .237, but he Is con
sidered the most dangerous hitter on
the New York Yankees. "Peck doubled
to right" is a familiar line in the New
York papers and it generally is fol
lowed by "scoring a runner ahead f
him."
Ivan Olson, another Beaver short
patcher, is" the leading hitter of the
graduates, for he is wailing them for a
mark of .291 in the National League for
the Brooklyn Dodgers.
Buck Weaver, an ex-Seal now with
the White Sox, and Harry Heilmann,
ex-Seal and Beaver now with the De
troit Tigers, are the two best coasters
hitting in the American League. These
two are hitting at a .28 clip. Heil
mann has been doing a great deal of
timely hitting, for Instance In Satur
day's game he got a homer in the ninth
inning tying up the score, Detroit fi
nally winning out.
Al. Walters formerly a catcher for
the Portland Colts, has fallen down to
.277, while Ping Bodie can boast of a
mark of only .264, although Ping's hits
are generally for extra bases. Some of
the coasters in the National League and
the averages are: Chase, .299; Cravath,
.293; Olson, .291; Reuther, .286: Killifer,
.284; Wilhoit. .273; Elliott. .273: Cut-
shaw, .270; H. Myers, .261: Bancroft,
.243; Jimmy Johnston, .238; Zeider, .234;
Ward, .231. The American Leaguers
are: Weaver. .ZS; Heilmann. .zss; Bates
.287; Walters, .277; Lewis, .267; Bodie.
.264; Gandil, .255; Young, .255; Hooper,
.250; Vitt, .245; Thomas, .238; and Peck
ingpaugh, .2?7.
The pitchers graduated from the
Coast seem to uphold their honors bet
ter than the sluggers, for Love, of
New York, is pitching to a .833 mark.
He Is credited with 5 wins and charged
with one loss, and he has played in
19 games.
Mays, a former Beaver, now with
Boston, haa won 11 games and lost 4
for a mark of .733. Noyes, another
Beaver, now with, the Athletics, has
won 7 and lost 6. Sothoron. another
Beaver, has won 11 and lost 8. Stanley
Coveleskle has won 11 and lost 9 for
the Cleveland Indians. W. James, of
Detroit, has a mark of 6 wins against
7 loeses, and Emke 8 wins and 9 losses.
In the National League Dutch Reu
ther, a recent Beaver acquisition, had a
mark of two wins and no losses, al
though he started in 10 games. Perrltt.
of New York, has won 7 and lost 4.

DARK HORSE' FOILED
Morris Declines to Meet Tough
Unknown From Panama.
'SOFT" MONEY IS LURE
Now Heavyweight Must Answer
Charges of Contract Breaking.
Man Wolgast Put on Road to
Success Is Kind to Boxer.
Even the smartest boxing managers
get stung once in a while. Leo P. Flynn,
who deals in boxers by the wholesale
lots In and around New York State,
came near putting one over on Nate
Lewis, the well-known Chicago man
ager, who handles Charlie White, Carl
Morris and several lesser lights in the
pubillstic kingdom.
Flynn is handling Kid Norfolk, a big
ace of spades, who they say. Is a won
derful heavyweight, and a true successor
to Sam Langford and Jack Johnson.
Flynn has been keeping the big fel
low under cover for some time and
managed to get a Rochester promoter
to sign his man for a 10-round bout
with Carl Morris. Flynn had signed
for his man to go on and the club
wired Nate Lewis for the services of
Morris.
Lewis fell for the offer. It sounded
like a dream for the promoters to offer
a big guaranty for Morris to box an
unheard-of man such as Kid Norfolk.
Nate figured it would just be a good
workout for Carl before the important
Labor day battle with Fred Fulton.
Nate afterwards thought it best to
inquire among his friends as to Just
who this Norfolk was. He learned in
a hurry that Norfolk vvas a bearcat
and held the championship of Pai -ma.
Among the fighters he had conquered
were Art Pelky, Battling Jim Johnson,
Jim Barry, Jeff Clark and others.
m m m
Lewis then sat down and wired to
the Rochester promoters that he never
allowed anv of his boxers to fight ?ol
oreri boys. But he had forgotten the
time he matched Kid Herman to box
Joe Gans for the lightweight champion
ehiD of the world in Tonopah, Nev.
Onlv a few days ago this Kid Norfolk
flattened Tom Cowler, the English
heavyweight who started his career in
Portland about four years ago, in two
rounds.
The New York boxing commission
has hailed Morris, or his manager, to
appear before that body on a charge
that he refused to follow out his con
tract and fight Kid Norfolk in Roches
ter. N. Y. He may be fined or sus
pended for the offense, if he cannot
give a good reason why he refused.
A few nights ago Morris took on
Tom McM-tron if. i six-round battle in
Pittsburg and McMahon got the news
paoer decision. It will be remembered
that this is the same McMahon who
holds a decision over Jess Willard in
rounds in Youngstown, Ohio, on March
24, 1914. Juet a little over a year before
Willard won the heavyweight title.
McMahon has also stopped Joe Bonds,
who Is well-known here.
Morris may take on several more
bouts before h!s Labor Day mill with
Fred Fulton. Jack Dempsey, the Salt
Lake heavyweight, who is at present
In San Francisco, may box Morris in
Kansas City. Dempsey won from
Willie Meehan in Emeryville, Cal., last
Wednesday night.
The winner of the Morrls-Fliiton
bout may be matched with Jess Wil
lard for the heavyweight championship
of the world.
Jack Doyle, a California cafe owner,
last week paid his debt-of gratitude to
the man who started him on tne roaa
to success.
The genial sportsman of Vernon
turned over a mortgage of $3500 to
Mrs. Ad Wolgast. wife of the former
world's champion, and he laughed at
the proposal of Mrs. Wolgast's business
agents that he accept $200 which he
had nald Ad for the deed.
Doyle bought the mortgage from
Wolgast several months ago, when the
ex-champion paid a flying visit to is
Angeles. Jack was quick to perceive
that Wolgast had weakened, but he did
not realize that his friend was so far
gone. Ad offered him a gilt-edged
3500 mortgage for $200. To save it.
Dovle bought it and kept it for Mrs
Wolgast.
-
Weldon Wing. Northwest feather
weight champion, won his second bout
in Los Angeles the other night when
he took a four-round decision from Al
"Kid" Mende, the Los Angeles battler.
Wing had no trouble with Mende and
took every round of the four. He may
box again tomorrow night. Muri uron
son has not started yet, but may box in
a week or so.
CAMAS TEAM WINS 5 TO
Papermakers Defeat Shipbuilders
Due to Krause's Pitching.
The Camas Papermakers won from
the Cornfoot Shipbuilders yesterday at
Camas, 5 to 1. Jocko Krause, pitch
lng for the Papermakers, only allowed
three hits, while his team mates were
able to garner eight lusty clouts. Watts
playing shortstop for the Shipbuilders,
had a bad day in the field, booting four
chances. Porter "i'ett was credited with
two runs and at bat once. He seems
to get on the bases in every game,
either walking or getting hit. Nate)
Schandllng, Mount Angel star, who has
Just returned from the Klamath Falls
team, was at third base for the losers.
The Columbia Steel-Northwest Steel
Company nine defeated the Kenton
Packers, 6-0. Zweifel, pitching for tha
winners, allowed only two hits. The
Kenton Packers were without the serv
ices of Outfielder Chet Hughes, and this
weakened their offense, for Hughes is
the leading slugger in the league.
