PLAYERS HARD TO FIND President Patrick, of the Pacific Coast Hockey League, Announces That Portland, Seattle and Vancouver Will Contest. VANCOUVER, B. C, Dec. 20. Port land. Seattle and Vancouver, B. C, will be the only teams In the Pacific Coast Hockey League during the 1917-18 sea son, Frank Patrick, president of the league, announced here today. Because of a shortage of players, Spokane will not be able to enter a team in the race. The season will open December. 28 with Vancouver at Portr land. PORTLAND ROSEBUDS PRACTICE Prospects Look Good for Locals In Coming Season. The Portland Rosebuds enjoyed their first regular workout of the season last night when Manager Bryan sent the hockeylsts through one and a half hours of strenuous drilling at the Ice Palace. , Eddie Oatman was on the Ice for the first time since his arrival from Otter ville, Canada, and the way he chased the puck up and down the ice and made accurate shots at the net surprised the spectators. Oatman has lost none of the cunning and speed which character ized his wonderful playing of two sea sons ago.. The star rover showed a bit of ex cess weight last night, but expects to be in condition within the next two or three days. Oatman -has the rover's Job clinched and stands a good chance of being appointed captain. Manager Bryan would be wise to select Oatman to lead the team. "Smokey" Harris, although still a hold out on the salary question, reports for practice each night and has been show ing his old-time form. When it comes to handling opposing players in a rath er rough fashion you have to take your hat off to "Smokey." This lad is one of the most rugged players In the busi ness and can stand more rough housing than any player on the team. Last sea son a number of the visiting teams tried to put Portland's Btar left wing "hors-de-combat," but Harris always came out victor. Manager Bryan will have a talk with Harris on the salary question within the next day or so and it is expected they will come to some definite agree ment. It is to be hoped that Harris will be in the lineup when Vancouver comes here to open the season, Decem ber 28. According to Manager Bryan. " Clem 0"Laughlin has not yet left Winnipeg for Portland. According to the latest word Bryan has received from Clem, the defense player intended to leave Immediately, but Bryan says O'Laugh lin has not yet taken up his transpor tation. From the way Al Barbour is per forming each night Manager Bryan need not worry much whether O'Laugh lin comes to the Coast or not. Bar bour is playing a wonderful game at right defense, and bis work has made an impression with the fans, and all the players say he will be a hard man to beat out of the position he is now playing. Tommy Murray, goal; Dunderdale, center; Charlie Tobin, right wing, and "Moose Johnson, left defense, are all In good shape and ready for the open ing game. Charlie JLTksila is working out each night and may get one of the spare positions. The probable lineup of the Rosebuds against Vancouver, December 28, fol lows: Goal, Murray: left defense, John son; right defense, Barbour; rover. Oat man: center, Dunderdale: right wing, C, Tobin, and left wing, Harris. That combination appears to be the class of the league and, barring serious accidents, ought to be a sure pennant winner. As long as the teams put up a fast and Interesting game Portland fans will turn out for the games. CANADIAN AMATEURS WARNED Hockey Teams Advised to Be Care ful -Who They Play. The directors of the Eastern Canada Amateur Hockey Association, the gov erning body of Ice hockey in the East, have warned the- Canadian amateur teams under what conditions they can play hockey at Pittsburg. Cleveland, Detroit and other American centers. When the Royal Canadians, of Otta wa, arranged a" match with the Pitts burg Athletic Association team some time ago, they were notified by the governing body that they must not compete against Pittsburg until the standing of the players was investi gated. Secretary Melville, of - the Canadian body, telegraphed to A. W. Moeller, secretary of the International Skating Union of the United States, which body controls amateur hockey, regarding the standing of the Pittsburg club and was strongly advised not to allow any of the Canadian clubs to compete against them,, as their standing was doubtful, none of the players being registered. John T. Taylor, secretary of the Pennsylvania branch of the Amateur Athletic Union, also notified Secretary Melville that the standing of the Pitts burg club was doubtful. The Ottawa team evidently adjusted matters, because it played Pittsburg and was unable to break a 2-2 tie. CAMP LEWIS ELEVEN NAMED Men Who Will Go to Pasadena to Meet Marines Are Chosen.

All roads for boxing followers will lead to the Eleventh Street Playhouse tonight, where Joe Rivers, one of the country's most famous lightweights, will meet Joe Benjamin, of Portland, in a scheduled six three-minute round main event. Rivers and Benjamin have trained hard for the match and are in good condition. Rivers has met all of the best lightweights In the United States with the exception of "Irish" Patsy Cllne, and he expects to beat the Portland lightweight. Ben jamin appears full of confidence and says that he will show the fans that he is a real contender and is entitled to the lightweight championship of the Pacific Coast. Rivers went through some light gymnasium exercises yesterday and will take things easy today. Rivers has several matches In view in Seattle and Tacoma before he goes back to California. . The Mexican is angling for a position as boxing instructor at Fort Dodge, N. M., and may be called to the colors any time now. The win ner of tonight's contest may meet Alex Trambltas here January 11. The semi-final between Harry An derson, lightweight champion of Can ada, and' Jack Wagner, the fast com ing Portland lightweight, Is attracting a good deal of attention. Wagner has progressed fast of late. Anderson is one of the best lightweights on the Coast. Now that he has a chance at a real boxer Wagner can see nothing but a victory. Anderson, as usual, has not had much to say, but has been training hard and expects to win. George Brandon will clash with Danny Edwards in the special event, which promises to be a fast bout. Each boy wants a chance at Billy Mascott for the bantamweight cham pionship of the Northwest and the winner probably will be matched with Mascott. Brandon and Edwards will fight at 118 pounds. Every card Is designed to have a slam-bang battle on it, and in this case it is Jack Allen vs. Roscoe Tay lor. Jack and Roscoe usually mix from gong to gong when they box. Joe Hoff will meet Ted Hoke in the curtain-raiser. The Boxing Com mission will choose a referee at the ringside. MAZAMAS TO MAKE HIKE PARTY WILL GO TO ASCHOFP'S FARM AT MARMOT, OR. Dance Also Will Be Feature and Big Dinner Will Be Enjoyed by Members of Club. The Mazamas announce one of their biggest events of the Winter to take place during the Christmas holidays. The scene of tha festivities will be the Aschoff farm, at Marmot, Or., where the hikers will spend the better part of two days, leaving Portland at noon, December 29, and returning late Sunday night, December SO. The outdoor enthusiasts will leave the city on the electric train for Bull Run, a picturesque spot In the Sandy River Canyon, 31 miles to the south east of Portland. From here they will hike seven miles through the moun tains to Marmot, where the big Aschoff farmhouse is located. After supper an entertainment will be presented lor the city pilgrims, winding up in a dance. The Mazamas will take their own orchestra. The night will be spent at the Aschoff place, which has, upon occa sion, accommodated 200 guests. The next day. Sunday, hikes will be en Joyed through the big timber and the picturesque surrounding country. Mar mot is usually snow covered at this time of the year, so snow sports will also probably be enjoyed on Sunday. A big dinner will be served in the afternoon, and later the crowd will hike back to Bull Run in time to catch the 6:15 train for Portland. The Aschoff place has always been a most "popular spot with the Mazamas. Every year two or three small side trips have been made there, and an nually a scheduled trip is announced for the club members and their friends. Expenses of the trip are exceptional ly moderate. The round-trip fare to Bull Run is SI. The night's lodging at the Aschoff place will be 50 cents per person and meals will be 35 cents each, including the big spread Sunday. The only other charge Is the regular 5-cent fee collected alike from Mazama members and guests on each trip with out exception. Instead of being In chrage of a sin gle leader, this trip will be under the auspices of the local walks committee, as it is of such general interest. A. Boyd Williams is chairman of the committee. and further information may be obtained from him or by tele phoning Mazama headquarters, Mar shall 1400. Three parties will leave Portland Saturday afternoon on the trip. Trains leave First and Alder streets at 12:45, 3:45 and 5:55 P. M. Complaint, however, is registered at what is regarded as favoritism In high quarters at permitting such well known fighters as Benny Leonard, and others In the service, to leave camp and box any time they desire. Boxers in camp, who happen to be privates and less known, declare that the order should apply equally. Ted Lewis, welterweight champion of the world, won a decision over Bryan Downey, after 12 rounds of fast milling in Columbus, O.. the other night. Eddie Campi and Lee Johnson were scheduled to box four rounds in. the main event of a boxing show at Em eryville, Cal., which is Just out of Oak land, Wednesday night. After two rpunds of hugging and stalling the referee took pity on the crowd and threw the boxers out, calling It no con test. Neither boy showed any Inclina tion to fight. A referee stopped a bout in San Francisco recently and all of the Oakland papers gave the game In San Francisco a good panning. Now it will be the San Francisco papers' turn to-go after Oakland. Al Sommers, middleweight cham pion of the Northwest, has started training for his 10-round bout with Billy George in Bend next Monday night. Eddie McGoorty. the Oskoosh, Wis., middleweight who has fought everyone of prominence at his weight in the world, arrived In San Francisco from Australia a few days ago. Eddie fought a number of battles while In the Anti podes, Including two with the late Les Darcy. Sam Langford stopped Kid Norfolk in two rounds In Denver recently. FRESHMEN TO CONTEST SEPARATE ATHLETICS FOR MEN OF FIRST YEAR PLANNED. Lefts and Rights. The boxers at Camp Lewis are out of luck as far as making-any money on the side by boxing is concerned. Brigadier-General Irons issued an order the other day stating that hereafter no one in the Army stationed at Camp Lewis would be allowed to accept any money for boxing. A number of the boys had been annexing a few dollars by boxing in Seattle and Tacoma. The order prohibiting them from taking money for boxing is pronounced unfair by .hose who have been reap ing the profits, although from the standpoint of the soldier-spectator, with a salary of $30 a month, it will be a benefit, since now he will be able to see fights in camp for 10 cents or nothing, where formerly outside of camp it cost him 50 cents and more. Basketball Now Occupies Attention of New-Termer at the TJnl veralty mt Ore com. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Euarene. Dec 20. (Special.) Freshman athlet ics at Oregon will be maintained sep arate from varsity sports, since Oregon is a member of the Pacific Coast con ference, which bars first-year men from memDershlp on varsity teams. This does not mean that freshman athletics are to be frowned upon at Oregon, however. The university is doing everything within its power to encourage tne first-year men to put teams into the field in every line of col lege sport. Separate schedules are ar ranged for them, and the student coun cil has provided that numerals be giv en to inose wno male tne freshman teams. Basketball is now occupying the at tention of the babes, and Coach Walk er s can tor candidates has been an swered by a score of material of such caliber that the mentor is having dlf ficulty In selecting a five. Starr, of last year's Monmouth His-h School team, appears to be the most likely candidate for the center posi tion, while Jacobberger, from Columbia University, and Durno, who received his prep training in Silverton High ecnooi, snow tne most promise as for wards. Picking two guards from among the IB who are seeking the positions is not a simple task. Indications are that these berths will be filled from among the following: Hollenbeck, from the Vancouver. Wash., High School; Ellisi a Dallas lad, who Is showing consider- aDie speed; Mautz, a Washington High husky; Blake. lone High School; Chap man, wno saw four years of interscho lastlo basketball with Marshfield: Les lie, of Coquille, and Gamble, who made a name for himself in Portland High School circles while playing with Lincoln. MANY TO TRY FOB TURKEYS Entries in Golf Clnb Handicap for Saturday and Sunday Numerous. Dr. W. I.

FANS URGED AS OWNERS Vancouver Club's President Sue gests That With Several Hundred Supporters, More Interest in Game Would Result. Community owned ball clubs will be the salvation of the great American pastime. In the opinion of President Bob Brown, of the Vancouver baseball ciud, and winner of half a dozen North western League pennants since he first started piloting clubs In this section or the country. President Brown is going to follow in the steps of President Rickey, of the St. Louis Nationals, and give every fan In his city a chance to become a magnate. If other clubs throughout the country would do the same base ball would become the greatest pastime of the age, declares the Vancouver of ficial. I am convinced that a community owned baseball club will prove the salvation of the game," declared Brown In discussing the situation. "Whethei the time will come when all clubs are operated on the same basis as the St. Louis National League club I decline to hazard a guess, but I believe that the interests of the game will be served by giving everyone Interested in baseball a chance to Invest and take more than a passing interest in the game. If it is at all possible I intend to in troduce the community owned baseball plan In Vancouver next season. The Northwestern League, with Portland a member, promises to be one of the best minor organizations in minor league baseball, if we are successful In get ting a class A rating. Northwestern League fans will be provided with a brand of ball not excelled by any other class A organization in the country. With better baseball I believe the fans will take more interest in the- game if they are given a chance to take an interest in the individual club. The community owned baseball club will insure keener competition and it is what we want in minor league base ball." DAILY METEOROLOGICAL REPORT. PORTLAND, Dec. 20.
