Joe Rivers, the Mexican lightweight, hose championship pugilistic bitions faded before the Phlladelphl Athletics began to light for the cells position, but who still has enoug cteam behind his wallops to stave oft the battlers at his weight on the Pa cific slope, is slated to leave San Fran Cisco tomorrow for Portland for hi scheduled 10-round setto against Alex Trambttas at the Heilig theater Wednesday night. October 22. Rivera will tip the beam betwee 140 and 145 pounds now. and. accord lng to word received by Jack Grant, matchmaker for the Portland boxing commission, from Bob Lags. Rivers manager, the latter will be in good condition for young Trambitas. Alex returned from San Francisco yester fj, fresh from a series of contests acainst the best of California's welter weights. On his latest Jaunt of in vision Alex fought a draw with Johnny McCarthy and went to a draw and took a decision over Tilly Kid Herman, the San Jose welter, well known locally. When Trambitas bat tied McCarthy to a dead heat he proved that he could hold his own mnh any of them at his weight on the coast and will be mixing every mln me against Rivera The Mexican, who has recorded to bis credit in fistic annals some of the hardest-fought and most sensational battles in history, is far from through as a boxer, although he has not been in the spotlight to any great extent for several years. Any time that Rivers finds the till a little depleted and takes it upon himself to step out and wield his mitts he also manages to hold his own. and many times more than that. He will always have his reputation and that helps a lot in the ring against a youngster. Rivers' first and last ap pearance here was last year, when be knocked Joe Benjamin for a goal In less time than it takes to say boo, Joe lasting Just about It seconds of tne Drat round, to be more exact. One wallop on the chin and a crashing body punch after a leap from the cor nrr on Rivers' part and Benjamin was hearing the birdies sing. That Tram bitas will make a much more formid able opponent ia conceded, but with a punch Rivers is always dangerous. Joe Harrahan. the Vus-a-ad little K. attle featherweight. Is down to meet Joe Gorman in the semi-windup of ten rounds. Both boys are prone to ex chance wallops from round to round, and the fans should be in for a lively scrap when they clash. Neal Zim merman vs. Eddie Quinn and Al Hyers vs. Eddie Haggerty. both six round goes, will round out the October 22 card. e e The announcement that the old prices. J2 top. would reign again at the forthcoming smoker has been wel comed by the ring followers. Many of the regulars, who like to get up rlose. had it figured that 13 was too steep for a ringside seat and rather than pay that price did not attend. With the former prices back the com mission should be rewarded with a much larger attendance on October 22 Sammy Good, former Portland wel terweight, who haa been in Manila for several years, arrived in San Fran Visco Saturday from the Philippines. He expects to engage in several four round contests around the bay sec lion and then return to Manila Vith eeveral fighters under his wing. i 1 1 Good brings the word that Kid rencio. the bantamweight champion tf the islands, is a real boxer. He re cently .flattened Sid Godfery. the Aus tralian champion, in 32 seconds and has defeated all of the good boya that have been sent in against him. Jimmy Darcy. PotIand middle weight, will travel four rounds against Battling Ortega in Oakland tomorrow night. Morris Lux will go four rounds or less against Krankie Denny In the emi-windup.

OU GAME GIVES WILLIES TO IDAHO Coach Downhearted When He Thinks of Saturday.' TEAM WORK NOW POOR Irish horse-flesh, that the show would not be up to a pre-war standard. The large number of wonderfully fin hunters shown came as a surprise to the experts. The attendance was large, although not as cosmopolitan as before the war. German and Austrian buyers were absent, but there were many English and French experts present. Before the war, the average entries were 1100. At the recent show the entries were 970, considered a re markable number under the condi tions. The committee in charge, fear ing that the entries would be small, had reduced the hunter classes from nine to four. To the officials' aston ishment, 518 hunters were entered in the four classes, a total equivalent to the entries in the whole nine classes of pre-war days, and the class of these hunters was very high.. JEFFERSON TO MEET JOHN BRIEF RECORDS OF ELEVEN SHOW ABOUT 50-50. Each Team Partial to Aerial Form Attack, Which Should Pro duce Exciting Struggle. Two of the most formidable teams In the interscholastic league wiil clash this afternoon on the Multno man Amateur Athletic club gridiron, when the fast Jefferson high school eleven lines up against the James John aggregation. Neither team has lost a game so far this season, and the contest this afternoon will have a direct bearing on the league cham pionship. The only comparison that can be drawn between the two teams Is the games between Jefferson and com merce and James John and Com' merce. Jerrerson defeated tne Book keepers. 32 to 0, while the following' week James John roiled up a ?8-to-0 score over Coach Murphy's squad. Both teams have resorted to fre quent aerial attacks In their previous games and the contest today prob ably will be full of the kind of foot ball that keeps the rooters on edge. The return of Fullback Herman Schroeder, one of last year's all-star backfield men to the James John lineup will put a great deal of strength in the Saints' offensive at tack. Coach Quigley of Jefferson has a team that played superior to Its 1(18 form in their victory over Franklin ast week. Ken Julian, Art Sutton, Reggie Touaey and Norman Toumana are hitting the line In great anape. nd have never looked better In their football career than they did in the ast half against Franklin.

Palo Alto. Cal.. Oct. 13. (Special.) The Stanford-California soccer contest will be held on the local turf on the morning of November 22, it waa an nounced today by Graduate Manager Ames.

Every Effort Being Made to Get Squad in Condition, for First Game of Busy Schedule. MOSCOW. Idaho, Oct. . (Special.) Idaho university s preparing for a hard game with the University of Oregon next Saturday. That will be Idaho's first game of the year and the ability of the team to score is still a matter of conjecture. Coach Huntington and Athletic D! rector Bleamaster are trying hard to get the team Into condition but have had hard luck. While the "varsity1 team Is strong and has a number of old stars who have gone through from one year to 18 months of war, and are again back in the team, it Is not making the progress that Was ex pected. With five stars of the 1916 and 1917 team back in the game the first team has been badly handled by the freshmen team in scrimmage. In the first scrap between the two teams Captain Breshears shoulder was dislocated and he is still carry ing It in a sling and will not be In the Oregon game, while two other old players were put out of practice for more than a week. In the second contest the freshmen held the regulars to one lone touch down and came dangerously near scoring several times. This haa led the coach and athletic d'rector to redouble their efforts to round the team into condition. Satur day the team practiced 4 14 hours and every evening it gets at least two hours of hard practice with Bleamaster taking personal charge of the tackle and end men and Hutchin son devoting his time to the back-field. The team is developing speed and there are a number of strong indi vidual players, but it has failed to de velop the team work that is neces sary to win games. Coach Hunting ton keeps preaching "team work, team work" at every practice game and the men are doing better than a few days ago. There will not be much time to re cuperate after the Oregon game next Saturday, for the team starts Wednes day for Salt Lake to meet the Uni versity of Oregon team which is plan ing on winning the inter-mountain pennant ths season. Bleamaster plans to take 17 men with him on that trip nd has strong hopes of making a good showing. As an added attraction next Satur day the freshmen of the university will play the freshmen of Washing ton State college of Pullman on the ome grounds here, the game, being called at 1:30 in time to be out of the way when the Oregon-Idaho game be- ins at 1:30.

Oct. 13. (Spe clal.) Officials of the California Golf association and the rank and file of the followers of the royal and ancient pastime are looking to the California junior championship as a movement In the direction of. developing new players to win recognition on the links. The association has ranted Del Monte the sanction for the first cham plonship on November 27, 28. 29 and 30 to be held in conjunction with the annual Thanksgiving-day tournament for men and women. From all sections of the state ad vices are being received of boes and girls under 16 years of age who are practicing in anticipation of partici pating In this novel event. The clubs win be ambitious to be represented by some youthful aspirant for cham pionship honors, and the prospects are tnat there will be some keen com petition on the Del Monte first course It Is no uncommon sight these days to see many youngsters taking up gou. Adults nave taken to the game with remarkable enthusiasm during recent years, and it has had the effect of attracting the attention and in terest of boys and girls. When the youngsters take to the game it means the development of many more play ers of class. The reason Scotland and England boast of so many leading golfers is accredited to the fact that the game is played universally by boys and girls. It is the history of almost every first-class player that he embarked in the game at a tender age. The Del Monte tournament in No vember will accordingly be watched with interest by golfers throughout tne west, as It will make an innova tion and will be In the nature of an experiment of stimulating the interest of youngsters. WILLIAM DYER VISITS CITY Seattleite Says Younger Brother Is Making Good in Ring. William Dyer, better known to Portland sport followers as Billy Williams, the veteran northwest light weight, dropped down from Seattle to pay his Portland friends a visit at the last show here. While in town he found time to say that he has a younger brother starting In the game In Seattle who looks like a world beater. Young Williams is not a newcomer but It has been three years since he has battled. Billy's brother scored knockouts in his first few fights and then deserted the ring. He has decided to come back, however, and is classed among the best look ing prospects in Seattle. Billy is through with the fight game and is circulation manager of a Seattle newspaper. mm 11 Turkish and Domestic Tobaccos "Blended SECOND BH1GKLEY FOUND CHARLEY SAY'S YOUNGER BRO THER CAN OUTDO HIM. .'TV Remarkable Exhibit of Animals at Revived Dublin Horse Show. NEW TORK, Oct. 13. (Special.) Hunters of remarkable class and in unusually large numbers have shown at the Dublin Horse Show, recently held in the Irish capital. This was the first horse show at Dublin since 1913 and it had been expected, because of the heavy demands of the war on Stallings Clings to Pick. Charley Pick, the former third- sacker of the Seals, finished a miser able season in the National league with the Boston Braves. Regarded as one of the best third-sackers ever to stampede in the Pacific Coast league, Charley slipped and slipped until even now his admirers predict he can't remain in the majors much longer. But Manager Stallings re fuses to ask waivers on Pick. He turned down flattering offers from coast magnates who attempted to bring Pick back into the ranks of the Pacific Coast league. Motorboat Club to Hold Smoker. The Portland Motorboat club will hold Its first smoker of the winter next Tuesday at the clubhouse at the foot of Woodward avenue.

The best drop-kicker who ever lived, on the word of the greatest drop-kicker who ever stood on a football gridiron, is being pointed for Harvard and will enter college next fall. . Arthur Brickley Is his name, and the authority for what sounds almost like an extravangant statement is none other than Charley Brickley himself. When charged with brotherly pride, the one-time star of the Harvard backfield, who has never had an equal in drop-kicking, replied: "I'm proud of the kid, sure. But, I'm stating a plain fact that has been proved in actual competition. We've started together on the 10-line and moved back gradually to the 40-yard line, and as a rule I've been the first one to miss. He's a perfect wizard with the football, and a better drop kicker this minute than I am. "He has picked up naturally, under my coaching, what took hours and hours of practice for me to acquire. Hardly a day passed for 10 years that I did not do some work with the football, and he is as accurate and dependable at 17 as I ever was. I'm not boosting the kid, just watch him.' Arthur Brickley, weighs 165 pounds at 17, and is an athlete, but; has never played football. He has been in the service of Uncle Sam during the war, as were his brothers, Charley and George, and now he Is at Worcester academy, preparing for Harvard. Two or three years ago his foot ball mentor decided to keep him out of the game until his freshman year in college, rather than have him banged up or get a bad start through lack of proper coaching. The boy is so eager to begin, however, that Charley Brickley is now wavering, and it begins to look as if Arthur I Brickley would start on the road to football fame with the Worcester academy eleven this fall. 6ICE DIRECT WIS PACE BECK TEAMS RACE TO VICTORY AT ATLANTA MEET.

New Year's day will see the first hockey game of the season In this race for the championship honors of the Pacific Coast Hockey associa tion, according to an announcement by President Frank Patrick. The an nuncement was made following a wild story from Montreal to the ef fect that George Kennedy will bring his Canadians to the coast in Decem ber to complete the world's series, which was brought to a sudden halt last season in Seattle when several members of the eastern team were taken lil with the influenza. Presi dent Patrick states that no such series is contemplated, and that the coast schedule will be run through as usual, with the world's classic at the end of the season. Vancouver, Victoria and Seattle will be the contending teams this year. There has been some talk of a second team for Vancouver, Con Jones, well known sportsman of this city, hav ing applied for a franchise. Condi tions at present, however, do not warrant a second team in Vancouver. Frank Patrick will as usual head the Vancouver team, while Lester Patrick will manage the Victoria ag gregation. Pete .Mudoon will have charge of the Seattle team. Lester Patrick, manager of the Vic toria aggregation, thinks that Dick Irvin, the sensational young forward, who was with Portland before he went over to France, will join his squad this season, while he expects Eddie Oatman to play a much better game. With Stan Marples, the two Loughlins, Genge, Johnson and him self, Lester figures he will have an aggregation that will take some beat ing. Although nothing official has vet been announced, it Is expected that Norman Fowler, otherwise known as "Heck," will be betwen the goal posts for Seattle this season. Fowler is back from Siberia, where he served with the Canadian forces, and he is aching to get back into the game. As far as Vancouver is concerned, all of the old players will be on hand, it is expected. Lehman, Duncan. Cook, Stanley, Mackay, Taylor and Harris are expected to return. Fred Fulton Lands Mulch. A recent letter from Tom O'Rourke, manager of Fred Fulton, from Ixn don, states that the ex-plastcrer is booked for two bouts this month, on the 15th and 30th.

Merkle was with the Giants In the series of 1911, 1912 and 1913, all of which were lost by the New York club. In 1916 he played with Brook lyn, and the Robins were defeated by the Red Sox. In 1918 Merkle was with the Cubs, who also lost in the big series. Hooper was with the Red Sox teams of 1912. 1915, 1916 and 1918. all world's series winners.
