EARL BAIRD ALSO ON LIST Tomrov Barone of St. Panl and Johnny Fontana of Texas, New comers, Bring Good Records. BY RICHARD R. SHARP. Matchmaker Frank Kendall of the Milwaukle boxing commission has completed his card scheduled for the Mllwaukie arena next Tuesday night. February 24. Harry Schuman. claimant of the Pacific coast lightweight champion ship, who has defeated many of the best men In the country, will tangle ten rounds with Jimmy Marshall of ' San Francisco in the upper deck of a " double main event. Earl Baird, the sensational Seattle featherweight and contender for na . tlonal honors will battle Tommy Barone of St. Paul ten rounds in the lower deck of the double main event. Marty Foley, the Tacoma welter weight knockout king, will meet Scotty Williams of Chicago In the first six-round special event. Foley boasts of the biggest knockout record of any man at his weight in the northwest and last year ran up ten straight battling in Tacoma and Se- . attle rings. Scotty vv imams lost to Billy Wright in his first start at the Milwaukle arena sometime ago, but has been clamoring for another chance ever since. He will get It next Tues day night. Weldon Wing, who Is getting to look more like a fighter as well as a dancing master, will show his heels . In the second six-round special, meet ing Johnny Fontana' who is trekking all the way up from Texas lor chance to get licked. Fontana is an army champion of the south and said ta be a regular mitt-wielder. . Frankie Webb, who has started in several four-round contests in Port land, will meet a newcomer with the moniker of George Burns in the cur tain raiser. They will go four rounds. Five new boxers will be Introduced to the fistic followers on the forth coming card and every one of them is out to make good. They are Jimmy Marshall, Marty Foley, Johnny Fon tana. Tommy Barone and George Burns. Schuman. Williams and Webb have ' not been worked to death, while Wing : Is the only boy on the card who is one of the regulars. This fact makes the card a creditable one in itself. m m It was originally planned to use Tommy Barone with Harry Schuman In-the main event, but when Barone ' arrived here it developed that he was more of a featherweight than a light weight so it was decided to use him with Earl Baird. The winner of the Baird-Barone match will be rewarded with a bout with one of the greatest feather weights in the country, probably on the next card in Milwaukle. Baird has fought himself into great favor with the. boxing fans and has a legion of . followers ready to back him against the best at his weight In the busi ness. - Johnny Fontana is on his way to Portland from an army post In Texas. He has cleaned up everything in sight In the south that wears :he khaki and will figure in a recruiting drive here before and after his bout. Johnny Noye, the St. Paul lijcrht weight, who recently arrived in Oak land to fight under the management of Bobby Kvans, is slated to make his first start in California in Oak land tomorrow, night, against Jimmy Puffy. Noye is eager to box here and does not bar anyone. Tillamook boxing fans will get their first fistic treat in many a moon in tfte coast city tomorrow night. Al Byers. the rugged Portland 130 pounder. who as an amateur won the northwest featherweight title and has been fighting with great success as a professional, will meet George Eagles of San Francisco in the main event of ten rounds. Both men have been training hard for the match and a red hot engagement should result. Byers has been conditioning him self at Ad Garlock's gymnasium while Kagles has been going through the paces daily at the London club. . Byers is going exceptionally good at the present time and won a six round decision over Erne Farron in Toppenish, Vafh., the other night. Jimmy Grady, a fighting 152 pounder from Bremerton will tangle six rounds with Johnny Ho user of Wheeler in the semi-windup. Battling Macke and Bud Stengel will travel four rounds in one of the preliminaries. t Harry Paul, the Denver 'Hemon. lost in eight rounds to Jimmy CashiU of St. Paul in Pueblo. Colo., recently. Cash ill must have slipped a lot since he last fought in Portland. If it took him eight rounds to stow Paul away. BASEBALL PROSPECTS BEGIX PRELIMINARY WABJHXG-IP. Jacobon, Knudson, Candidates for Twirlers Jobs, First of Season to Appear on Canipas. TTXIVERSITY OF OREGON'. Eugene. Feb. 16. (Special.) The first touch cf baseball on the Oregon campus this year was Hen today, when a tew of the several candidates for pitching berths on the varsity began their preliminary warming up: Jacob Jacobson and Carl Knudson were the first to don a suit. Both were mem - bera of the frosh team of 1917, but neither was in school last season. Jacobson pitched for the naval fly ing corps team last season, and has a record of having pitched 23 games and of not losing any. He and Knud son alternated in the box for the Oregon babes of 1917, and both hold a good record for that year. Knudson is a Portland product, and tn his prep school days caused an abnormally low batting average among I i cr tr r- 1 k. Pn.tl.nH In. mwi At ... ... - " ' ........ ... terscholsstio league. He has also worked wltn several teams in east ern Oregon. Another mound artist who will prob ably be In a sutt before long Is Dick Rbiram. a five-foot twirler. who hails from Ashland. Sta imm pitched for the Oregon frosh last year, and worked out occasionally with the var sity In practice and in non-conference games. Dick is a southpay, and although handicapped by his size, seems to be able to daiiver the goods. OUter pitching candidates who will AS report soon are Art Berg, left-hander, and Marc Latham, Eddie Durno and Francis Jaeobberger, all right-handers and now members of the basket ball varsity team. Two candidates will report for the backstop position "Jiggs" Leslie and Vincent Jaeobberger. Leslie received for the varsity last year, recruited from the Infield, where he had for- merly played. Jaeobberger suffered the same indignity, turning over his place at second to catch. Since Hunt ington developed catchers from in fieiders In these two cases, it Is likely he may be able to repeat the trick this season. Nick Williams, formerly manager of the Portland Colts of the now extinct Northwest league, and at present manager of the Moose Jaw team of the Western Canada league, wishes to brine- his team to Eugene for ten days about the first of April, ana Huntington is planning to get him here If possible. Dick Nelson, a former varsity cap tain and first-sacker. who has re turned to school, but is ineligible to play on the varsity, will probably have charge of the freshman nine this year. Nelson is a former mem ber of the Moose Jaw team. HIGH GRflPPLERS TO CLASH WASHINGTON AND FRANKLIN BOYS DOWN FOR BOCTS.

C, Ideal City, but Not Counted Oa. There is a bare possibility that Portland may have a baseball team in the Northwest International well as in the Pacific Coast league. Pug Bennett.- the old Northwest league player and manager, dropped in on Judge McCredie yesterday to discuss the northwest situation. Th circuit is shy one live town, and there is talk of placing the lone some franchise in either Astoria Vancouver, Wash. Judge McCredie gave voice to the opinion that the club would do better as a side attraction in Portland Just as it used to be in the olden days before Seattle was In the Pacific Coast league and when there was Northwestern league. I don't think there would be any objection from the Pacific Coast league," said the Portland magnate. "Seattle is to have two teams, one in each league, and I think a team would go better here than in any of the small cities hereabouts. Astoria a good live, progressive city, but the jump would be terrific from Seat' tie and Tacoma, and they get a lot of rain in Astoria, too. The G. M. Standifer corporation might be will ing to back a club at Vancouver, Wash." The ideal city for a team in the new circuit would be Victoria, B. C. For some reason or other the "mags' are not counting on victoria. ine cities now In the running are Seattle, Tacoma. Spokane, Yakima and Van couver, B. C. Yakima nas not yet raised the $10,000 or 112.000 that will be necessary to finance a club, and the same is true of Astoria. Bill Leard is supposed to manage Astoria if a club is entered in the circuit and Leard is already busy in San Francisco combing the bushes. Tealy Raymond, the old Seattle man ager, will handle the reins at xaa- ima. Bill Duthie is the Seattle man ager. Bob Brown, former manager of Aberdeen and Spokane and now owner at Vancouver, likely will man ace his own team. The McCredies received a letter from Raymond a few days ago ask ing for some players. Raymond and Pug Bennett used to play together in the Seattle infield. Bennett is now in the shipbuilding game in Tacoma, but may take hold of one of the clubs in the new league if he can see any doueh-ray-me in it for himself. The league will be class B. Only eight of the Los Angeles ball players have signed and all eight are bushers. so the Portland club isn't faring so badly after all. Killefer is still in the east, and President Pow ers says he isn't worrying over the hesitancy on the part of his regulars. - Harrv Krause. Ira Coldavell, Phil Koerner and Scotty Alcock, coast league players who are in vaude ville with' a singing turn, are doing their bit in Los Angeles. The boys probably are making 640 or $50 per week apiece, wntcn isn i nan ior auartet of ballplayers with no reg' ular job in between baseball seasons. RollieZelder of the Oaks has signed his contract and is in the east helping Del Howard line up new talent. There are 36 players on the Oak roster now, so the "ham and eggs" bill is going to be bulky unless Del gets busy with the knife and cuts a few of his bushers off the string. Here Is some more pleasing news for the baseball "mags ; Bats which have been costing 31.75 will sell at $2 in the fjiture. The Los Angeles club is in quest of a nifty outfielder to replace the vet eran Rube Ellis. Killefer and Craw ford are fixtures. Karl Crandall at second also is due to be relieved, but Karl may be retained for utility pur poses. KlfflEFEB ISSUES DEFI THREE-CUSHIOX BILLIARDIST IS AFTER CAXXEFAX.

BY ROSCOE FAWCETT. a T the recent major league meet' l ing in the east the American A. league adopted a resolution pro. hibiting the trade or sale of any player to another big league after July 1. This will put a stop to the indiscriminate bidding for players in the middle of the playing season. The National league pulled a "boot" in not adopting the same resolution. The constant strengthening of the clubs in the big cities New York and Chicago during the winter months at the expense of the smaller cities is bad business. But the evil effects on baseball are. increased ten fold when this sort of jockeying is permitted in the midst of a red-hot pennant race. Ban Johnson was correct in his stand on the Carl Mays case last fall and the new regulations adopted by the league indicate that the "mags are beginning to appreciate that the sporting element ehould have a little consideration. American league clubs hereafter will have to struggle along on their merits after the first of July and money bags will not count much in the pennant race. The golf committee is talking of standardizing golf balls. Why not stardardize scores say around 70? Jack Debpsey Is gaining avoirdupois despite his ruction with the Ameri can Legion and hia wife. A letter from Los Angeles states that Demp sey now jiggles the bar at an even 204 pounds. When two little boys meet there is much squabbling over the weights. Their managers haggle themselves bow-legged over a couple of ounces ringside. With the big fellows it Is different. Here we have Carpentier coming over to meet Dempsey, and, although you would think it good business for Dempsey to keep small so as not to overshadow the Frenchman, he keeps on eating big sirloins and puffing up like a pocket gopher in a bin of wheat. Carpentier probably will not top 180 pounds. But, as remarked a moment ago, it requires more than mere displacement to make a champion heavyweight. Ever since the days when Jawn L. Soolivan used to lead 15 highballs out of the hangar before breakfast the heavyweight tonnage has varied like spring weather. Fitzsimmons met Corbett weighing around 158 pounds. Moran, weighing 204. met Willard when the former champion tipped the bar at 259 pounds. Willard out weighed Dempsey about 60 pounds when he did hia front and center Brodie at Toledo last July. The first sergeant would have lined up the boys in the' rirst squad m about the following order: Willard, Jeffries, Sullivan, Johnson, Dempsey, Corbett, Fitzsimmons. And the three heaviest hitters probably were the , HEXRI LABBE IS CHOSEX PRESIDEXT BY TRUSTEES. H. A. Sargent, Vice-President, Dow V. Walker, E. C. Summons Fill Out Roster of Officials. The first board meeting of the newly-elected trustees of the Mult Domah Amateur Athletic club was held last night at the Winged M in stitution.

FRAZEE Former Red Sox Owner Acts to Collect Baseball Debt. BOSTON, Feb. 16. The superior court today issued a temporary in junction restraining President H. H. Frazee of the Boston American Base ball club, and Hugh J. Ward, an as sociate, from disposing of any of their stock in the club or of drawing divi dends. This action was taken on petition of Joseph J. Lannin, former owner of the Red Sox, who asserts that Frazee and Ward have failed to pay a note for $262,000 due November 1, 1919, in connection with their purchase of the club. Lannin several days ago an nounced the sale at auction March 3 of the stock in the realty company that owns Fenway park, home grounds of the Boston club, which was pledged as security for the note. FOX' EFFORTS HELD FX VAIX W.' A. Brady Says C. C. Cochran Has Call on Carpentier. NEW YORK, Feb. 16.

Cochran, ye English fight promoter. Mr. Brady added that he has in his possession contracts signed by Mr. Cochran, Carpentier and M. Descamps, Carpentier's manager, giving the English promoter the rights to the French champion's services until Feb ruary 15, 1921.

The athletic council of the state college yesterday voted Bert Brooks, this year end on the Cougar football team and. formerly tackle under Coach Diets, the official "W service blan ket, Tbe blanket ia given to all aUi-. last three the lightest of the cham pionship aeptet. Voters should not be too hasty about restoring capital punishment just think, hanging rums a man's en tire neck. ' "A" bets that Gibbons beats Mc Cormick; "B" bets on McCormick. Bout a draw. Does B" win? No, the bet is off unless specifically understood that "B" was to win in case of a draw. - Several new features will be in corporated in the baseball box scores this year as a result of recommends tions adopted by the major leagues. Hereafter a player will not be given credit for a stolen base when allowed to advance without any effort to atop him in the last half inning of a game when the score is such that his run will not affect the result Number of times a player' is caught stealing will be shown in thebox score: One excellent innovation will be a line for runs batted in, telling who batted in the runs and how many. It is surprising that the "mags" have been so dilatory in including this in the statistics, for these figures give a better idea of a man's value to his team than the mere batting average. Last year, for instance, Ty Cobb topped the American league batters, but ranked thirteenth in the list of leaders in hammering in runs. Here they are: Ruth. Boston, 112; Veach, Detroit, 98; Jackson, Chicago, 97; Heilman, Detroit, 95; Felsch, Chicago, 89; Lewis, New York, 87; Gardner, Cleveland, 86; Sisler, St. Louis, 83; Baker, New York, 78; Weaver, Chi cago, 7o; E. Collins, cmcago, u; Kice, Washington, 72; Cobb. Detroit, 69; Speaker, Cleveland, 69. Ping Bodie batted in 58 runs for New York, while Roger Peckinpaugh of the same club ranked far down the list with 34. Ruth's home run swatting was what gave him the leadership. Ha tiu has a long hike to go before he ap proaches the record of 144 runs batted in by Tyrus Cobb during his remark able season of 1911. Besides -whack' ing home 144 Cobb scored 147, so that the erstwhile diamond king produced 291 runs in one season. It is hoped that the voting on the Gibeon-McCormick bout will be clear ed up in time for the Shrine conven tion. Pacific Coast league fans may get some consolation out of the scale of prices adopted by the major leagues the other day. It will cost 50 cents to sit in the open-faced bleachers where one used to be able to 'squat and absorb splinters for a two-bit piece. The pavilions will cost 75 cents and the unreserved sections of the grandstand an even 31. Coast league prices are 40 and 70, including war tax and a pine cushion. letes who have served three years on any state college athletic team. Brooks received his degree in the economics and history department last week and has left for Spokane, where he will take a position in a bank. Brooks began Ilis college gridiron career in 1915 under the famous "Lonestar" Dietz and played a con sistent game throughout that chanr pionship season. He Joined the colors in 1917 and was soon promoted to ensign. He returned this fall and was shifted to end to fill the gap at the left wing, where he played a steady game, although out of his ele ment, being naturally a lineman. A. A. V.

The game yesterday was slow and uninteresting, due to the fact that the players were handicapped by play ing on a highly polished floor, wnicn made it difficult for the tossers to travel over the court with any great degree of speed. There was no doubt as to the outcome of the game after the first half, which ended .22 to 8 in favor of Benson. Mix Grider and Ted Gurlan were the only Commerce players to show anything, and between them tney marked up all of the Bookkeepers points. Grider popped six baskets from the floor and converted one free throw out of several attempts. For Benson "Winnie" Scott showed up to good advantage, covering the floor in great style.
