Manager-Fisher had all of his twirl
era taking their turn oa the mound to
day durinc batting- practice. Mitchell
started pitching and whea Fisher
thought be bad enough be signaled
Clow to replace him. Rapp and Hlrwan,
both left-handers, warmed up and took
their turn at flinging.
Mitchell la coming along fast. He has
plenty of stuff, but la lacking In expe
rience. Fisher expects to retain btm
on his twirling staff and puta In about
sa mlnutea every day showing the Paa
adena youth some of the liner points of
the art of twirling.
Rapp la an old head, as Is Klrwln.
Both are taking It easy and are not
putting much stuff on the ball yet.
With about two weeka of thla warm
weather they will be ready to take
their regular turn oa the mound for a
full nine Innings.
Fisher Is dally expecting the arrival
of Pitchers Arkenburg. Morton and
Conkrlgbt, from the Salt Lake club. All

ways won more game than he lost,
fterolta Show r "Well
While watching the playera during
hitting practice today Fisher discov
ered that two of his players hit either
right or left-handed. Kitter and Peter
aon are the cbapa and they both awitch
over, all depending on who la pitching.
When Mitchell and Clow were burling
today Rttter and Peterson batted left
handed and awltched over to the other

Peterson hit tbe ball hard and are go

the famous Chaxlea wishes to be known
as Milton and the players here have
compiled with his wish. Hollocher Is
a dandy little chap and well liked by
the other players. He does not resent
ble hta brother much except that he
eats with a knife and fork and sleep
with his eye closed.
Lee Dempsey waa listening to some
of the players talk about the distance

THREE CONTESTS TODAY
JEFFERSON AND LINCOLN TO MEET
ON MVXTNOMAH FIELD.
Beasea and Commerce to Cross Bats In
lateracholaatle Game Washlnartoa
Seconds to Meet Mllwaukle.
The Jefferson High School tossers
will line up against the Lincoln High
School nine today on Multnomah Field.
This will be one of the three games to
be played today. The other two game
will be played on East Twelfth and
Davis streets. The first game will
start promptly at 3 o'clock and will
be between the Washington High
School second team and the Mllwaukle
High School boys. This game Is not
of Interscholastlc League standing.
In the second game, starting at
o'clock, the High School of Commerce
will cross bats with the Benson Poly
technic nine.
This is the first year of Interscholas
tlc baseball for both teams, and the
game should be interesting. coach
Murphy, of Commerce, has a scrappy
lot of balltossers and should give the
plumbers a hard game.
Benson has a good fielding team and
Its battery Is one of the best in the
league. They beat the faculty last
Monday, making so many runs that the
scorers could not keep track of them.
They also played a practice game with
the Supple-BalUn team and fared quite
well against the shipbuilders.
Tbe Jefferson lineup probably will
be as follows: Batrd. catcher; Gray,
pitcher: Reed, first base; Dewar. second
base: Howard, abortstop; Steele, third
base; Thompson, left field: Hamraett,
center field, and Julian, right field.
Thompson. Lincoln's new coach, had
his team out for the first time on
Wednesday. He recently replaced Ed
Kennedy, who resigned as coach of the
Cardinal squad. With all the good ma.
terial that I turning out daily, Lin-
coin will, without a doubt, be in the
running.
Lincoln a lineup probably will be as
follows: Ankelis, catcher; 'Skivington
pitcher; Stevens or Rogoway, short
stop; "Big" Cole, first base; "Little"
Cole, second base, and Kogoway or
Stevens, third base. The coach has not
decided yet upon his outfield.

FRANTC FARMER WINS COAST
LIGHT-HEAVY TITLE. .
Sensational Fighter From Australia
Ontboxed, Ontslngged and Beaten
by Kapowsfn Logger.
TACOMA. Wash., April 11. tSpecial.)
All hail Frank Farmer, Pacific
Coast light - heavyweight champion.
Kapowsin's husky logger-boxer tonight
did what the best Coast battlers have
been attempting to do for several
months. He outboxed. outfought and
won Micky King's crown in the hardest
fought heavyweight mill ever seen in
these parts. When Referee Art Shock
raised Farmer's band at the conclusion
of their six-round mill in token of
victory there was not a dissenting
voice in the crowded house. Fighting
cautious, heady bout, the logger beat
the Australian lad at his own game
and scored a clean knockdown in the
fifth round. '
Marty Foley, Tacoma's sensational
young 150-pounder, continued his
march toward the top by outpointing
Battling Al Nelson, of San Francisco.
Although Nelson outweighed the Irish
lad, Foley's brilliant left and clever
boxing earned him the verdict. Nelson
proved ' a glutton for taking punish
ment, however, and was still strong at
the close of the six rounds.
