SALT LAKE, April 6. (Special.)
The Pacific coast league season opened
in Salt Lake witn a victory for the
Boes over the Biavera. 10 to 6. A
turnout of aston'shingly large pro
portions was present, braving the
cold.
The field was extremely muddy.
Gasoline waa burned on the ground
all night and a hundred bags of saw
dust were used to make the field pos
sible for play.
"Walter McCridie sent up a regiment
of pitchers, but they issued a total of
12 walks. None of them had control.
Of the four who went to the hill, Syl
vester Johnson made the best show
ing. Harold Poison started and was
rapped for eight runs.
Ralph Stroud pitched steady ball,
nnd had the Beavers well tamed. In
the ninth, with a long lead. Stroud
eased up a bit and the visitors col
lected three runs.
Bill Rumler started off his 1920
f racer with a home run drive over
the left field fence in the very first
inning, with two on bases. Bill drew
a five-pound box of candy, a meal
ticket and a safety razor. George
Malsel won himself a shirt for hitting
the proper sign with a double in the
ninth.
A distinct feature was two double
plays engineered by Sheely. Malsel
made a fine catch in center field.
It was impossible to pass judgment
rrn Portland's new club owing to un
favorable field conditions. Sale Lake
appears to be stronger than it waa
last year, Reilly being an improve
ment in the outfield. iWsterzil led
the Beaver att ick with a double and
two singles. Young Spranger peeled
off a double in nifty style and got a
single besides.

LOS ANGELES. April 6. Ten thou
sand fans saw Oakland defeat Los
Angeles in the opening game of the
season, 9 to 4. The Oaks gained, an
early lead.
The northerners won largely
through converting their hits into
runs, which the Angels, with more
hits, were unable to do. The latter
made a strong rally in the eighth,
but it was not strong enough to over
come the stronger lead of the Oaks.
Mayor M. P. Snyder pitched the
first ball straight over the plate into
the hands of Sheriff John T. Cline.

FDUNT1 OF YOUTH
Eleven Years of Scrapping
Fails to Stem Rush.
FULTON ON TEST TONIGHT
Keen Interest Aroused Over Card
Prepared by Milwaukie Com
mission for Oregon Fans.
BY RICHARD R. SHARP.
Gunboat (Edward J.) Smith of
Philadelphia. Pa., they say, has dis
covered the fountain of perpetual
youth and is going stronger today
than he was in 1908, when the vet
eran heavyweight fought his first
battle in the squared circle.
The' famous gunner will enter the
ring tonight at the Milwaukee arena
against Fred Fulton, considered one
of the greatest heavyweights in the
world. The only apparent advantage
that Smith will have is ha.t he has
fought nearly every living great
heavyweight in his career and la still
the possessor of a wallop in his right
mitt said to be sufficient to stow
away any boxer in the world, if he
lands on a vulnerable spot. Smith
may have lost much of his ability
of past years, but one thing the
critics have not taken away from
him is his punch, and nature can be
credited with that.
Gunboat Record Astounding;.
Many a great boxer has, gone down
to defeat at his hands during his
career of nearly eleven years of
scrapping.
It was Gunboat who first showed
that Bombardier Wells, the former
English heavyweight - champion, had
a glass jaw. It was Smith that made
the Britisher' chin famous, or rather
infamous. In 1913 Bombardier saw
fit. to meet Smith in a scheduled
20-round fight in London and he
lasted quick, going down in the sec
ond round.
Smith put George K. O. Brown away
in four rounds, Jim Savage In three
rounds, Jim Flynn in five cantos, Ar
thur Pelky In 15 rounds, Tom McCarty
in four rounds, Boer Rodel in four
rounds, and many others more or less
known. He has beaten Battling Le
vinsky. Jim Coffey, Jess Willard.
Frank Moran and Sam Langford, and
has fought them all from Charley
Miller to Jack Dempsey.
Dempaey Me Twit.
Smith fought Dempsey twice in
1917 in San Francisco. Jack won the
decision in the first bout while the
other went to a no-decision.
Fred Fulton is an extraordinary
heavyweight and in a class by him
self. He is at the height of his ca
reer and within the last few months
has defeated the best men in America.
Fulton cannot afford to let Smith
make a showing or stay the limit if
it is In his power to put the Gunner
away. Fred will be in the ring to
cross his pile driver right or send in a
left smash at any minute of the game
to end the conflict. . If Fulton gets
there " first he will be curtains as
Fred's weight alone behind a -punch
is enough. If Smith lands first, it
may slow Fred up.
Fulton Should Win Limit Bout.
" If the match goes the limit Fulton
should win by a mile. Smith wrapped
his right up In silk last night and
carried it in a sling all day to save
it. That right mitt is his hope and
salvation. The rest remains to .be
enacted before the fight fans who
promise to pack the Milwaukie arena
to the rafters tonight.
Frank Farmer, the Tacoma light
heavyweight, arrived yesterday and is
in great shape for his scheduled ten
round match against Hugh Walker of
Kansas City, in the semi-windup.
Walker Is on edge for his mix and his
manager. Jay Thomas, said yesterday
that Hugh would be 25 per cent faster
on his feet for tonight's battle than
he was aaginst Meehan, which means
some mix. Farmer is not much on
the clever stepping nor is Walker, but
both men can sure sock 'em In.
Three top-notch bouts round out
the bill. Joe Mandot- will tangle six
rounds against Muff Bronson, Billy
Mascot will meet Danny Edwards in
a stx-"Ound go, while Freddie Lough
will step four rounds against Carl
Martin in the first bout of the eve
ning. a
Denver Ed Martin will refef-ee all
of the bouts and announces that he
will allow no clinching whatever. All

Pacific coast trials for boxers and
wrestlers, preliminary to the f ina
elimination test for the American
Olympic games team to be held In
eastern cities early this summer, will
be held at the Multnomah Amateur
Athletic club according to an an
nouncement made yesterday by T.
Morris Dunne, secretary-treasurer of
the Pacific Northwest association. Mr.
Dunne has not yet been officially
notified that the local club had been
awarded the boxing tryouts but sanc
tion of the Amateur Athletic union
to stage the wrestling trials has been
granted.
There is little doubt but what the

issued a statement saying that the
boxing goes to the winged-M club

ceived official notice of the award.
It is planned to hold the boxing

Oregon. California, Montana. Nevada

the tryouts are being held at the Mult
nomah club other trials will be staged
in the mid-western and Atlantic sec
tions and the winners from the three
districts will gather at New York for
the final boxing tryouts and at Bos
ton for final wrestling tryouts.

secretary of the Amateur Athletic
union, stating that the protest of the
Multnomah club regarding the nan
dling of the annual Pacific Northwest
association wrestling championships
at Seattle last month had been up
held, which means that the winged-M
wrestlers will be awarded champion
ships in six out of the seven weights
Multnomah. Protest Allowed.
The protest was made on th
grounds that the opposing mat men
did not weigh in on the second night
of the bouts. Secretary Rubien s let
ter stated that the officials who
handled the meet were in error in
not compelling the men to weigh in
on the second night and that the
protest had been sustained.
Earl Garrison was awarded the
title In the 115-pound class by de
fault and George Hanson took the
heavyweight crown in a like manner.
Virgil Hamlin met several opponents
in the 135-pound division and bested
them all. Hanson also entered the
158 and 175-pound classes as well as
the heavyweight, while Hamlin was
defeated in the . 145-pound division.
The reason that Olmar Dranga, chair
man of boxing and wrestling at the
winged-M club, gives for the defeat
of the local men was the fact that
they ail made the weights on the
night of the bouts while their op
ponents, by not being compelled to
step on the scales on the second night
of the tournament, had had a chance
to take on extra weight which gave
them a decided advantage when the
men went to the mat.
