"Here he comes!" shouted an en thusiast at the finishing- line of yes terday's five -mile championship straightaway motorcycle raei. 'There lie goesT" yelled the rabid one's com panion. This tella in the best fashion how much one could see of Ray Crevis ton when he smashed the world's five mile straightaway motorcycle record on the Base Line road yesterday. He sped like a phantom, did this Marion. Ind., professional, who made the distance in 3:15 1-5. From all that local dealers can ascertain, the best previous straightaway mark is 3:21. negotiated at J'alm Beach. Fla.. back in un.

The Multnomah Amatettr Athletic club track and field squad was origi nally slated to Journey out to the Co lumbia Coliseum yesterday morning for several hours' grind on the indoor track, but the weather was so good that those on hand decided to take a fling at the preliminary conditioning training on the Multnomah club track.

A. .V. C. About. 20 athletes were out on Mult nomah field yesterday basking in the sun and limbering up their muscles. Many of the baseball enthusiasts at Multnomah club who will play on the various Sunday morning house club league teams took advantage of the 'balmy breeze" and sping weather to stop a few hot ones and chase files on tho club diamond. The outlook for a crack club first team is the most promising in many seasons at Multno mah club. Another Al twirler devel oped in the person of Carl Knudsen at vesterday's practice. Knudsen was the leading high school pitcher for several seasons while at Lincoln, ana also pitched some great nrlependent ball, His younger brother. Ralph Knudsen, who pitched for Lincoln last year and played in the house league at Multno mah club last season, is also out again this year. Harry Fischer was on deck for the first call and speared some Texas leaguers. w HEN everything is in readiness for making the stroke the player should take a last look in the direc tion of the hole to satisfy himself about what it is exactly he wants to do and to make a final mental note of the dangers that are in front of this tee shot When About to make the stroke the eyes should have ceased to regard that point in the distance to which it is Intended to dispatch the ball and should have settled down to looking at the ball itself. This brings one naturally to a repetition of the most justly celebrated maxim in golf "keep your eye on the ball." There is no other rule half so valuable and nec essary, because if you do not keep your eye on it from the moment the swing is commenced until it haa been sent from the tee no good can come of the stroke. Even players of long experi ence sometimes, as the result of over confidence, get Into the way now and again of temporarily allowing their eyes to wander and the result is that their strokes go wrong.

Outrirld In Need of Strengthening and Manager of Bees Is Worried by Delays. BY JAMES J. RICHARDSON. PITTSBURG. Cal.. March 23. (Spe cial.) Two hundred and thirty-five pounds of good-natured, red - headed beefage is Eddie Herr, manager of the Salt Lake club and former major league procurer of "bush" ballplayers, who is here trying to mold a ball team of ability to mark his entry into the Pacific Coast league, and Herr cither is going to do it or ruin his reputation in the attempt. Herr has been chasing over the country gazing upon ivory-domed and other varieties of minor league and "bush" ballplayers so long that he has . become hardened to the game so that when he told me that he never predict ed the winning of pennants or made pre - season speeches regarding the ability of his warriors. I took it for what it was worth and started lamping the 18 players Herr has in camp. To begin with, Herr is troubled with a bunch of holdouts. Most of the Salt Lakers who refuse to affix their John Hancocks to contracts are players whom Herr needs, and needs badly, if he wants to make any kind of a show ing in the Pacific Coast league race, which promises to be the best this class AA circuit has put on for many sea sons. Buddy Ryan, who hits .300 year after year, is one of the holdouts. Herr does not know exactly whether Ryan is a holdout or whether he means to retire from baseball, but we who have watched the red-faced infielder year after year know that Buddy wants more coin to cavort in the outer gar den, hence the fact that he Is secluded at a farm on the outskirts of Denver while the Salt Lake team is doing its best to get into shape for the coming season. Ryan has a bum pair of props, but still travels at a pretty fair gait chasing balls in the outfield and drops a chance about as often as Jack Fahle buys you a cigar. Herr needs Ryan and needs him badly. The other Salt Lake players who are sitting on the holdout fence are Billy Orr. shortstop; "Lefty" Leverenz. southpaw pitcher; Carl Crandall, third sacker, and. while "Butch" Byler, catcher, Is among those here in camp doing his best to get into shape, it is being whispered that he, too, has re fused to sign a contract until Salt Lake raises the ante. Herr is for his players. He is will ing to go to the bat for any of them if he thinks they are of the right sort and appreciate a favor. Herr talked the Salt Lake directors into giving Earl Sheely, efficient first baseman, a 50-a-month increase over last year's salary. Herr has only six twirlers in camp, but momentarily expects a few former major leaguers to hop off the rattler and help start the games going in regular style. Joe Willett and "Dude" Molyneaux, former Boston pitcher, are the two experienced slabsters Herr has on the Job at this writing. Alley, a slim-looking lad, is trying for a place as a regular, and so is Conkwright, who was with the Bees last year. Cal dera and "Ocean" Schorr are the two southpaws working out. Conkwright looks good and if he gets control will make Herr a good pitcher. Markle is coming here from the majors and Bob Steele, former Pitts burg and New York National left hander, is also on the way. If Lever ens decides to come into the fold Herr will have a fairly good bunch of pitchers. "Tub" Spencer is In good form and will make the Bees one of the best catchers in the league. Byler, former University of Washington backstop, is showing up well and will land the second-string job. A lad named Hinkle is trying for a back-stopping job but is too green. . Earl Sheely at first base is the best in the Pacific Coast league. Sheely and Spencer look like the two best bets on the Salt Lake club. Krug at second looks to have the edge on Gts lason. Krug looks awkward, but is a smart ballplayer and hits hard. With Orr a holdout. Ernie Johnson is holding down the shortstop job. Ray French steps around lively and looks like a million dollars, but may have to take a back seat. French was recom mended by Fielder A. Jones and played with Cornfoot last year. Heinie Sands, in the absence of Carl Crandall, is playing third base and hit ting the ball on the nose. He plays a nice third sack and Walter McCredie sure boosted Heinie's stock to Herr. Sands will make the utility job if Cran dall reports and manages to crowd him off third base. Herr is worried about his outfield. At present he has Rumler in right and Mulvey in center. Starasinich, a busher from Oakland, is playing left. Mulvey vutTH YOUR. GAMe Vbo ToCD ALL YbuR PftLS Vlayij- oip FoBewetj, nckaj ccxvtes a WICE UMRM DAY AMD Yt?0 HAUL OUT Tne OLD WAR CLUB5 AJX ALJO COMEi Tn Iesire To Try out Vcxir " form" brmars rue layoff; and Rumler came here from the St. Louis club. Mulvey hits left-handed and cracks the ball hard and on a line. Rumler is a right-hand hitter. Neither of them looked good chastng balls in the outfield, but they probably are not yet in shape. Herr will have to get some more talent before his club will figure in the race and he'll do it or break the Salt Lake treasury in the attempt. While here I met Bill Bloomfield, who pitched for Portland in the old Northwestern league. He has a ranch at Antioch and also is interested in the barge business on the San Joaquin river. He piloted me around in a Haynes ' roadster and said he might make a trip north this season. A number of Pittsburg residents In quired about Walter Hippler, now in Portland, and who was associated with the Columbia Steel company here. Pat Casey in particular was the most per sistent one asking about Hippler. Salt Lake has an excellent ball park to train in and the players reside at the Los Medanos hotel, one of the best hostelries we ever have been In. Bill Steen, who twirled for the Port land Beavers when Vean Gregg and Gene Krapp were on the job in the pennant winning days, is manager of the Pittsburg team and works in the big steel yards. Steen's salary Is said to be J4000 a year. He rides around in a Hupmobile and says no more pro fessional ball for him not while he draws 4000 in tho steel plant. ATHLETES HRE OVERSEAS GREAT PREPARATIONS BEING MADE FOR COMING MEET. General Pershing, In Letter to T. M. - C. A. Secretary in France, Outlines Plans. PARIS, March 23. With the arrival of a dozen athletic experts to join the force of more than 300 Y. M. C. A. phys ical directors who are co-operating with 1700 athletic officers in the Amer ican expeditionary forces, and the re ceipt of sport supplies valued at $419,- 730, the great programme of recreation and competition which General Per shing has outlined for officer and doughboy alike is assuming definite form. Preparations for the construc tion of the great Tershing stadium at Joinville are keeping pace with the development of the rest of the pro gramme. F. L. Kleeberger or tne-universiiy oi California and Lieutenant L. C. Schroe der, formerly athletic officer at Mitchel field. Long Island, U. S. A, headed the party of recent arrivals. Both are to be assigned to the French army and doubtless will take an active part In the development of men to take part in the inter-allied military Olympic games late in the spring. The others are to go into the American expedi tionary forces as requested by General Pershing In the following letter to E. C Carter, chief secretary of the Y. M. C. A ln France: "I am now most anxious to encour age in every way possible the athletic side of our training, both as a means of keeping the personnel wholesomely and enjoyably occupied during the pe riods not needed for other military du ties and as a means of keeping them in the state of physical and mental fitness which is so necessary to the morale which breeds contentment. "Your organization has already ren dered to our expeditionary force great and most useful assistance in athletic activities, and I assure you that I thor oughly appreciate all that has been done and the spirit back of the self sacrificing services of yourself and of the members of your staff of athletic directors. Because of this and because of my confidence in the desire of all of you to help in every way, I am writing to ask you to continue your assistance at this time, when expert athletic direc tion is so vitally necessary, by arrang ing to keep at least one of your best fitted and most competent men with each of the divisions in the American expeditionary force, to co-operate with the divisional athletic director." The Y. M. C. A. war work -council will provide not only the expert or ganizers and directors necessary for the success of the programme, but has undertaken to supply all the athletic equipment required. Since the armis tice was signed the "T" has sent from America supplies valued at $837,000. From July, 1917. to December 1. 1918, for purposes of comparison, the total in the department has been $831,000. The combined total of $1,668,585 is Increased to more than $2,000,000 by the addi tion of supplies purchased In England and bats and baseball gloves made by the French from American models. King Guest of Pershing. CHAUMONT, March 22. King Al bert and Queen Elizabeth of Belgium spent the nignt at the headquarters of Oeneral Pershing and left this morn- ing by automobile for Brussels.

CROCKETT, Cal., March 23. (Spe cial.) After having defeated Bill Rogers' Sacramento raw-meat eaters last. Sunday. 7 to 2. Cliff BlankenshiD's Maryland bowlers from Oakland vis ited Crockett today and, with Artie Benham pitching, endeavored to south paw the Portland Beavers into sub mission, but Cliff and his warriors were treated to a rude surprise. McCredie's hopes plastering a beautiful coat of whitewash to the visitors. Score, 4 tb 0. Blankenship brought up a number of former coast leaguers with him, but it made no difference to McCredie's two pitchers. Tommy Lukanovic and Guy Cooper, who let Blankenship's boys down with a total of two hits, both of them doubled. Lukanovic worked five innings and retired In favor of CooDer. who was getting along nicely until he had two men down in the ninth inning when Maggart, former San Francisco and Los Angeles outfielder, hit the apple to right center for what would have gone as an easy out had not Dick Cox, stepped into a hole and gotten his feet tangled, the clout going on the books as a two-base hit. That was the extent of the visitors' offensive. But getting back to the Beavers: They looked pretty nifty out there to day. They went through nine innings without making a boble and were "heads up" and full of jazz every sec ond. The Beavers had their batting eye with them and proceeded to take a fall out of Benham in the third inning. They gathered 14 bingles off his de livery. They started in the third inning when Baker doubled and Lukanovic singled; that was as far as the Beavers went that inning, the next three batters going out via the infield route. Portland scored its first run In the fourth inning when, with two down. Cox tripled to center and scored when Mitchell booted Ritters grounder. The Beavers hit Benham hard and often. In the fifth period, with one gone, Bogart tripled to center and scored on Fuller's double to left. Blue singled to center and Fullar was out at home on a relayed throw, Blue taking sec ond on the throw in. Farmer singled, scoring Blue. Walker crashed down the third-base line for a single, scoring Farmer. Cox flew to Beeson for the third out. Dell Baker was cutting up behind the box all during the game. He picked Hal Maggart off first' base in the sixth inning and turned back two other runners at second base. He grabbed three hits out of four trips to bat. Blue retired in the sixth Inning after Maggart accidentally spiked one of his toes while trying to get back to first. Dick Mitchell played the bag after that with a right-hand glove and got away good. Cliff Blankenship was much Im pressed with the Beavers players. He thought Blue was the best first-sacker he has seen for some time. Walker, Ritter, Bogart and Fuller also attracted Blankenship's attention. Although Ful ler is not keen about playing shortstop, he handled five chances around short patch without a bobble and looked good. If Siglin comes to terms Fuller would like to play second base and let Siglin cavort at shortstop. Score: Maryland Bowlers I Portland B H O A E!
