SALT LAKE, Utah. Sept. 7. (Spe
cial.) In a loosely-played game this
afternoon Salt Lake beat Portland, 8
to 7. Jean Dubuc had a tissue paper
ehade over Lynn Brenton In pitching,
tut neither had any call to be proud
of his work.
The same held some interest because
it was a seesaw affair. Brenton's chief
trouble was his lack of control. In the
fourth, after a double play had helped
kim out, he filled the bases and Sheely's
long double scored the three of them.
"Lefty" James finished out after the
seventh. Salt Lake scored twice in the
first Inning on three hits, Crandall's
double being the chief blow. The Bea
vers scored three unearned runs in the
second and third. The locals got a gift
in the second. Fisher's home run put
the Beavers ahead In the fourth and
Eheeley's double, as mentioned, gave
the locals three.
The Beavers tied It in the fifth on a
single by Wilie, a double by Williams
and a single by Rodgers. The locals
made one in the sixth and one in the
seventh. The ninth saw the Beavers
rally to the extent of one run, and If
Ken Williams' line drive to Quinlan
had been half a foot either way, the
score at least would have been tied.

three. Driver Small tried hard to shut
out the field in the final heat, but Rich
Hal and Red Norton were saved by a
scant length. The Lincoln laid all over
the field in the 2:21 trot, winning all
three heats about as he pleased.
Russell Boy was an easy winner of
the first beat of the special pace, as
Butt Hale went to a break in the drive
down the home stretch.
The horses set a fast pace- In the sec

in the third heat and held it. Butt Hale

BURDICK ARRANGES BOUT
San Francisco Boys to Be Seen in
Action in Portland After North
ern Engagement Moy
to Train Here.
John Burdlck, the San Francisco
boxing impresario who brought Charley
Moy here to meet Billy Mascott, has
been in Seattle for several days looking
over the boxing situation. While in
the Sound city he signed up for three
San Francisco boxers to appear there
on September 15 at the Dry Dock Ath
letic Club smoker. Charley Moy will
meet Bud Ridley, Dan Salt's fast com
ing bantamweight; Johnny Arrousez
will tackle Oeorge Ingle, and Len
Rowlands will take on Sid Mitchell.
Arrousez and Rowlands are in San
Francisco and will leave by boat for
Seattle at once to start training for
the show. Moy will train here several
more days and will wind up his work
outs in Seattle.
Arrousez at one time was one of the
best featherweights in California, but
has outgrown the featherweight limit,
and for the last six months has been
taking on all of the best lightweights
around Oakland and San Francisco.
George Ingle is a rugged boy and will
make Johnny extend himself to win.
Ingle has beaten such boys as Willie
Hoppe and other crack 135-pounders.
Len Rowlands is a recent arrival in
California from Milwaukee and has a
big reputation in the East. He came
to San Francisco with the intention of
meeting Frank Barrieau for the Pacific
Coast middleweight championship and
lost a decision to the battling Canadian.
He was not at all satisfied with his
showing, and since that time has met
a couple of other ISS-pounders, beating
them with ease, and now is ready for
another match with Barrieau. In meet
ing Sid Mitchell he will be up against
a boy who will be on top of him from
start to finish.
Rowlands is the middleweight whom
Tommy Andrews had matched to fight
Les Darcy in Memphis, when the latter
met his untimely death.
The Portland fistio followers have
seen Moy in action and know what a
classy boy he is. Charley should not
have any trouble defeating Ridley if he
fight him like he fought Mascott.
Burdick will bring Moy, Arrousez and
Rowlands back to Portland with him
-i meir Douts in Seattle and may
match them in Portland for the latter
pari oi tne month or the first part of
October.

Neville was three down at the in

Grant when the match was decided, but

holes and finished in 72.
Dr. C. H. Walker, of San Jose, earned
the right to meet Grant in the finals

CHICAGO, Sept. 7. American troops
training under Major-General Pershing
in France are to receive a detailed
cable description of the world series
games. President Johnson, of the
American League, said tonight. These
stories of probably 1000 words will be
cabled at the expense of the National

American troops with baseball para
phernalia, had requested permission to
take up a subscription before the start
of the games.
It is considered probable that the re
quest will be granted.

Not Assured.
Directors of League to Meet Tues
day to- Determinate Fate of
Football This Fall Lin-
coin Without Coach.
Hopkln Jenkins, principal of the
Jefferson High School and president of
the Interscholastlo League, has called
meeting of the league directors to
be held Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock
at the Multnomah Amateur Athletic
Club.
Whether Interscholastlo athletics
will be abolished or carried on will be
decided at this meeting. At the be
ginning of the war baseball and track
athletics In the schools were done
away with, but since then Secretary
of War Baker has advocated sports of
all sorts and it Is more than probable
that all branches of sports will be
pushed with vigor.
Professor Jenkins himself is an ar
dent football fan and at one time
played Quarter for the Yale eleven. Al
though Jefferson has been hit hard by
the war Mr. Jenkins figures that ath-
etlcs will reach a newer and larger
number of pupils than heretofore.
H. H. Herdman, principal of the
Washington High School, has been too
busy to devote any time to athletics
but is heartily In favor of following
out athletics along the line established
by the Government at West Point and
Annapolis.
Lincoln High School will enter a
team on the field if the sports are con
tinued, but to date a coach has not
been selected.
Columbia University is confident
football will be restored and Leo J.
("Tick") Malarkey has been obtained
to coach and teach.
Benson "Tech" will prove the dark
horse for the boys attending that in
stitution are larger than most of the
high school students and if muscle and
brawn count for anything they should
make a mark in the league.
There has been no football schedule
drawn up for the coming school term
and nothing definite in regard to bas
ketball has been said. Both these vital
questions probably will be taken care
of at the Tuesday meeting.

ond. Smith resorted to left jabs in the
third and also landed a damaging right

Gridiron Mentor, Who Is Former
University of Oregon Star,
Achieves Success Both in
Athletics and Teaching.
Football at Columbia University this
season is to have no setback, Judging
from the tone of the applications com
ing in every day, many of which make
special inquiries in regard to the sport.
The news of a change of coach no
doubt will surprise many of the for
mer boys who came to regard Dora Cal
licrate as an institution at the uni
versity. Mr. Calllcrate. who has been
coach and professor at the university
since 1910, has withdrawn to devote
himself to his profession, that of en
gineering, in which he was graduated
at Notre Dame previous to his coming
to Oregon. It is with deep regret that
Columbia parts with his services.
The methods and spirit of "Cally,"
however, will be continued, since his
successor, "Tick" Malarkey, is a prod
uct of the home grounds. "Tick" played
three years at the university under
Calllcrate and then continued the sport
at the University of Oregon, making
the team the first year there. Mr. Ma
larkey"s services will be wholly de
voted to the university as professor and
coach. As a student "Tick" was popu
lar with all and a leader in studies,
starring especially In English and win
ning highest honors therein when he
was graduated.
As a football player and track man
he was always looked up to for lead
ership. He continued the same all
round, live-wire spirit at the University
of Oregon.
Last year he developed a champion
ship team at the McMinnville High
School, the "Wonder of the West Side."
Harry J. S. Betters Own Record.
WILMINGTON, Del.. Sept, 7. In an
Fight Your Rheumatism
With the Right Ammunition
Take Every Advantage of This Relent
less Enemy.
Fighting disease Is the most Im
portant warfare known to mankind,
because we are all subject to its at
tack. One of the most common foes is
Rheumatism, which attacks with re
lentless violence and often leaves Its
victim entirely helpless. Rheumatism
Is so often successful against Its vic
tim because the wrong ammunition is
used against it.
Too many people make the mistake
of treating only the symptoms and
entirely overlooking Its source. They
are so anxious to find relief from Its
torturing pains that they expect local
applications of liniments and lotions
to accomplish what la Impossible.
Rheumatism is caused by millions of
tiny germs, which are entrenched in
the blood where they cannot be reached
by locally applied liniments. They
must be literally routed and forced out
of the blood by a remedy which
searches them out and puts them to
flight.
For more than 'fifty years S. S. S. has
been recognized as the most reliable
blood remedy known. It goes deep down
into the blood cells and purifies and
cleanses the circulation of every trace
of impurity. It is the right ammunition
for Rheumatism and has been used in
thousands of cases with gratifying re
suits.
You can obtain S. S. S. at any drug
store. Take no substitute. Write- to our
medical director regarding your own
case. Address Swift Specific Co., 217-D,
