FITCHERS DO FULL TIME Mitchell .Makes Good Showing for Regulars, Allowing but Two ilits Until Fifth. BT JAMES G. RICHARDSON. BEAVERS" TRAINING CAMP, Crock ett. Cal.. March 16. (Special.) Man ager McCredie sent his warriors into action here today and when the fire works was over the score stood. Yanni Bans 4. regulars 6. It was some battle. For the first time In the history of I'ortland spring training camps Mc Credie allowed his pitchers to. do the eunninir for a full nine innings. The players showed midseason form. Henry I-ay. one or McCredie s young ngni lianders. dished out the twisters for the yannigans and was wild as a March hare, walking eight batters, and he was nicked for 10 safe swats, three of . them being of the two-play variety. Oick Mitchell was in the points for the regulars and until the fitth frame left the Vans down with two scratch his Mitchell was putting everything he had on ttie ball and managed to whiff nine of the opposition and only walked one batter during the entire game. It it as an Ideal day for the boys and the run was out with all its glory which al lowed every player to wade into his work with plenty of pep. ftesalar Mart Scorl. To look at the 'gang circling bases and throwing the ball about one would think the season had been on for a cou ple of months. The reeulars started scoring In the first inning when Stolaff threw Bo gart's grounder over Walters" head, al- . lowing Eddie to take second. Kuller's sacrifice and Cox's boot of Hitter's grounder put Kogart on third, Bogart scored and Blue went out. The Yans in the early part of the contest looked like they were going to place the skids under the regulars without much ef fort. . La; started the game without trouble, in the first canto, but ran into a snag i In the second ining by walking Wal ters. Writs sacrificed Walters to sec ond. Pennington walked. Mitchell placed the pellet In short left for single, filling the bags. Fol.lt took toe hold and crashed one of Lav's fast ones to left for a double, scoring three runs. Taaa Hld Iad. The Tans held the lead until the fifth, when the regulars peppered Mitchell for three swats, putting across a like number of runs. W Hh one down Kogart walked. Fuller showed plenty of speed going down to first and beat out a bunt. Bogart taking second. Mitchell heaved a wild pitch, advanc Ing both runners. Hitter lined out to left for the second out. Blue crashed one to .left for two bases, scoring Bo gart and Fuller. Blue scored on Farmers" single. Pennington scored the Vans' final run in the eighth In ning. Two walks, an error and a base hit by Stoloff put Pennington over. The regulars scored their last two runs in the seventh. Bogart beat out a bunt. Fuller dittoed. Kilter pickled one for two bases, scoring Bogart. but Fuller was out trying to make th'rd. Ritter took third on Blue's out and scored on Farmer's single over second. MeCrdie Is Pleased. McCredie Is more than pleased with the action of the boys today. Fuller at short and Blue at first look like the real stuff. Fuller gets the ball away from him fast and Blue can hook them anywhere within ten feet of the bag. That's stretching it some, but he looks like the old pumpkins. Ritter at second worked nicely, and with Fuller and Blue got away with two fast double plays. Walters played a nice game for the yans at first base, and belted out a pair of hits. Out fielder Walker arrived during the game and watched the battle from the grand stand. 1E PALM A SETS SPEED RECORD Run of 7.396 Mile Covered in Fonr Minute. 45 1-3 Second. SANTA MONICA.

Parole of Berme Morris, Seattle hockey player, for three weeks, has been asked f the I'nltei States authorities by the .'.i.iijljn government, according to word received here. Morris -was ar rested recently on a charge of evading the selective service draft law of the United States. Information here shows that he was registered for military service both under the Canadian and American laws and given exemption in both countries. A notice changing his status in the United States failed to reach him owing to the influenza epidemic and the fact that Morris had meanwhile gone to work in the northern British Columbia woods. The three weeks' parole is asked to enable his lawyers to prepare his case.- ICE HOCKEY SERIES TO OPEX Seattle and Montreal. Teams to De cide Title. SEATTLE. Wash., March 16.

FIGHTER HERE FOR BATTLE Defeat of Chief Abernatliy Tomor. row Night Forecast by Cali fornia Molorman. BT HARRY M. GRATSON. Johnny McCarthy may go to Minne apolis for four engagements. The San Francisco welterweight and his man ager, Sol Levinson, are buzzing around town and both declare that Chief Aber nathy, the Visalian Indian, is in for a trimming when the pair meet .in one of the double main events at the armory. Tenth and Couch streets, to morrow night. . . While in Seattle. Levinson. through a representative of Ernie Potts, the Minneapolis promoter, received an of fer which, if accepted, would take the Seal Rocks City knockout specialist to the Minnesota metropolis. The proj;o- ition .would allow Levinson to pick four opponents 'ith the club to select the fifth and final oi:e. which would be Johnny Tillman or Jock Malone. Both of these birds are a bit heavier than the California motorrr.aa, and for that reason Manager Sol has shelved the offer for the time being, but inti mated last night that Jarrrg Johnny may hike for the middle states ere long. Levinson insists, however, that his man s opponents must not weigh more than 14- pounds. There are six good bouts on the i!l of fare tomorrow night. Jimmy DarcV IValari Trambitas) tangles w'lli "Spud Murphy in the other main event. The balance of the card follows: 15 pounds, Alex Trambitas vs. Mike Pete: 130 pounds. Joe Gorman vs. Johnny Ar rousey: 125 pounds. Ted Hoke vs Bat tling Coutrado: 135 pounds. Waller Knowlton vs. Freddie Anderson. Young Abe Attell, Denver light weight, is at the Hotel Benson and "-vill leave tomorrow for San Francisco, where his folks reside. He beat St: ley Yoakum and Steve Ketchcll in Denver last year, but has not been boxing for the past several months. Young Abe is no relation to the ex- featherweight champion. Hi made successful trip to Australia a fe-.v years back. How about a scrap between Roy Ritner and Dr. McFarland? Fur tne irst time in the history of the Minne sota house of representative..?, two members of the body will appear on a public boxing programme and will re ceive real money for their services. Jack Reddy. matchmaker of the St. Paul Boxing club, will put on a bout between two of the state jawmakers on March 28. The sum the boxers will receive will be donated to the recrea tion fund for wounded soldisrs at Fort Snelling. Jim Coffey may be brought to the coast by Louis Parente, San Francisco promoter, who figures on a Coffey Frederick Fulton scrap. Confessor red is now in Los Angeles. Sol Levinson is still in the boxing glove business in San Francisco. Sol Iways has sold nearly all of the gloves used around Harry B. Smith's town. 'Billy Wright hung onto me all the while, and 'twas hard for me to get a crack at him," said Johnny McCarthy. Wright took the Pacific coast welter weight title from Mack in Seattle last eek. Billy is a clever boy and liable to defeat anyone who fails to con- cct with his glass jaw. Portlanders will remember how Frank Barrieau spilled the beans for Willie at the Ico Palace three winters back. Chief Abernathy knocked out Joe Rivers in San Diego about nine months ago and had boxed boys like Mike Uolindo in the southland. "Spud" Murphy Is considered rather a freak among the boxers. He has small thin legs and is knock-kneed. "Spud" is a clever fellow, and if he doesn't lose his head and commence to slug he'll make It hot for Jimmy Darcy. Murphy and Battling Ortega have fought seven or eight times, with the battling Mexican holding the edge. Murphy has a draw with Kruvosky to his credit.

Idaho's Claim to Championship of Northwest Conference Re sented at Eugene. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, March 16. (Special.) "The greatest basketball team in the history of the university" is the way a number of the backers ol the University of Oregon quintet for 1919 have described Coach Dean H. Walker's troupe of basket tossers. The present Oregon basketball players are the first Oregon team to win the coast honors in this branch of sport in several years.. The University of Oregon team is the undisputed champion of the Pacific coast as a result of the two wins scored over the University of California last week by the close margin of two points each. In order to play the California five the Oregon team first won the championship of the northern division of the Pacific coast conference, which included Oregon Agricultural college. University of Washington and Wash ington State college. Oregon was not a member of tne northwest conference this year and the contention that the University of Idaho has advanced that it is the champion of a mythical conference in the northwest is unfounded. ine northwest conference is made up of the following teams: Oregon Agricultural ollege, Washington State college. Whitman. Idaho and Montana, the Uni versity of Washington not being a member. In supporting its claim for the title Idaho has included Whitman college, which was not played by Ore gon this season. It is, therefore, im possible to figure out the title on a percentage basis, as Oregon played Idaho only one game, and the lemon yellow quintet won. Idaho Claim Stirs University. Oregon deserves the title to both the northwest and the coast and the whole team resents the contention of the Idaho team. If the northwest con ference had been carried on in basket ball this year, it would have been nec essary for Idaho and Oregon to meet four games, as the constitution oi the conference provides. During the season Oregon has scored 533 points to the 427 gathered by her opponents, which gives the varsity a margin of 106 points. In each of the 17 games that Oregon has played the average score of the varsity was 34 7-17, while the opposition averages 25 2-17. The points are distributed anions the members of the team as fol lows: Durno, forward, 274: Fowler, forward, 78: Lind, center, 68; Jacob berger, guard. 64; Chapman, guard, Brandon. SDare. 8. Durno has scored 51.5 per cent of the total score by the varsity, 144 of which were scored on field baskets. Eddie had a chance to convert 186 fouls, out of which he has gathered 130, which I; 68.8 per cent. PlayerM All of Oregon. All of the men on the team are Ore eon men. Francis Jacobberger and Hermin Lind are former Portland ir terscholastic stars, Nich Chapman hails from Marshfield. Ned Fowler is from Pendleton.
