THREE TEN-ROUND
BATTLES ON CARD
Decisive Route Struggles to
Be Friday Feature.
'TINY" HERMAN MATCHED
Heavyweight From Astoria to Go
Up Against Frank Farmer.
Good Fight Predicted.
BY- RICHARD R. SHARP.
Three ten-round battles will fea
ture next Friday night's card of the
Portland boxing' commission, which
will be staffed at the armory under
the direction of Matchmaker Bobby
Evans. Evans Is of the opinion that
the fistic followers like the decisive
scraps, thus the three ten-round mills.
Two preliminaries also will be on
the card. The trio of topline matches
that have been signed are:
Frank Farmer versus Oscar "Tiny"
Herman, ten rounds.
Joev Gorman versus Young Sam
Langford, ten rounds.
Frank W. Murphy versus Stanley
"Willis, ten rounds.
The three contests will bring to
gether heavyweights, featherweights
and welterweights, respectively.
"Tiny" Herman, the big Astoria
heavyweight, won a home here when
he knocked joe Lawson of New York
out in two rounds the other night.
It Is figured he will give the veteran
Frank Farmer a hard fight. Chet

fact Chet thinks so much of Herman
that he said while here the other
day: "Just give me another year for
"Tiny" and he will run Fred Fulton
out of the country. . As soon as my
toy gets a little more seasoning I
want to get at Fulton before IJemp
aey lands him."
Farmer's Showing Gad.
Farmer made the best showing of
his career here recently when he bat
tered Hugh Walker of Kansas City
for ten rounds and took the decision.
Never before had the fans seen Frank
level his punches with such accuracy
and force, and any man excepting
Fearless Hugh would have gone
down for the count long before the
distance had been covered under such
an onslaught of wallops.
Herman Is big, strong, aggressive,
youthful and a real comer. He is
fast Imbibing the finer points of the
boxing game from his manager and
trainer, Chet Mclntyre. who a few
years ago was one of the best heavies
In the country and former boxing
Instructor of the old Seattle Amateur
Athletic club.
Joe "Kewple'" Gorman Is the best
drawing card in the featherweight
ranks on the Pacific coast and will
be meeting the toughest proposition
that he has stacked up against since
his meeting with Karl Elaird when
he takes on Young Sam Langford,
the colored 130-pounder. Young Lang
ford has fought over 200 fights In
his career, meeting the best In this
part of the country. He has met
Tete Mltchle twice. Leo Houck, Chet
Neff. Tommy. Hayes and a host of
others, taking them on up to 133
pounds. Of late Sim has been boxing
around Seattle and Tacoma.
Frankie Murphy is the Denver
welterweight sensation and twice
conqueror of Bryan Downey, claim
ant of the welterweight champion
ship of the world. Murphy also has
beaten Jimmy Hanlon, Lee Morrissey,
Joe Rivers. Joe Wop Flynn, Patsy
Drulllard, and others of note. He
arrived in Portland several days ago
from Boise, Idaho, where he defeated
Carl Macke, also of Denver. Murphy s
big stock In trade is bumping off
-flsrhtir who rlalm anv ktnrl of a
title. He knocked out Pat Gilbert,
Inter - mountain lightweight cham
pion, in four rounds In Salt Lake City,
and has treated others like Pat just
as roughly.
Murphy was a lS5-pounder up to
the time he enlisted In the army, in
which tie served 19 months, getting
out last June. During his sojourn
with Uncle Sam's forces he took on
weight until he became a full-fledged
welter and now tips the beam when
n the best of condition between 140
and 143 pounds.
' Leach Cross, who is making his
home In Los Angeles, Is planning
to bring his welterweight brother,
Marty Cross, to the Pacific coast.
Willie Jackson, the New York
lightweight, finds boxing profitable,

BALL ASSURED
SHORT JtMP TO SEATTLE AL
LOWS EXTRA GAME.
Los Angeles and Beavers to Play
' Off First of Postponed Con
tests. Next Week.
As a reminder of the old days of the
Northwestern league. Judge McCredle
announced yesterday that there would
be Monday ball games in Portland
this year whenever the long Jump
from Los Angeles to Portland pre
cludes the regularly scheduled Tues
day game being played.
Los Angeles was unable to reach
here last Tuesday in time to open the
series bo the opening was postponed
until Wednesday. This scheduled
Tuesday game will be played next
Monday at Vaughn street at 8 o'clock.
and the Wednesday game that was
postponed by the rain storm, will be
.; . - -
played as the second game of a
double-header on August 7. when the
Angels are here again.
The Monday game is made possible
by the fact that Los Angeles plays
In Seattle next week and can leave
here Monday night and arrive in Se
attle in plenty of time for the regular
Tuesday opening day In that city. Se
attle can work the same dodge on the
weather man In the case of postponed
games.
After June 1 there will be Sunday
double-headers In Portland every Sun
day. The schedule announced by
President McCarthy called for Sunday
morning games in Portland, but Judge
McCredle said "nix" to that scheme.
The Judge is a great "500" and
"authors" player and a Sunday morn
ing game would force him to go to
bed early on Saturday night.
The judge and some of the news
paper men used to spend most of their
spare time playing "bridge" and "600"
when the Portland club trained in
Honolulu three years ago.
Manager Nick Williams and W play
ers of the Reglna club of the West
ern Canada league sat in the grand
stand and watched Portland trim the
Angels' wings yesterday. Nick's ath
letes had' their optics focused on
what was happening on the playing
field, but not so N(ck. The popular
peroxide manager is trying to get
McCredie to turn over to him Sylvester
Johnson, the young Portland pitcher
who is trying out with the Beavers
and Nick watched every wiggle, he
made on the bench yesterday.
1 After the matsnee Nick left the park
greatly enthused. He likes Sylvester's
move toward the water bucket and
says the cadet covers a lot of ground
sitting down.
Several Portland boys are on the
Reglna payroll: Denny Williams. Km
ery Webb, Bab Marshall, Al Llbke and
Carl Walters. Southpaw Lesher, th
Canadian rookie who tried out with
the Beavers at Ontario, also is -with
Nick. The Beavers gave him the gate
because he refused to be the goat In
a badger fight staged for his benefit.
Nick admits he is green, but he thinks
that as soon as Lesher learns how to
distinguish a Grecian vase from an
ash barrel he will be a great pitcher.
. "Toots" Schuls will not pitch for
Los Angeles today. Manager Klutfer
announced yesterday that Schuls had
been sold to the Joplin club of the
Western league.
Sutherland's dislocated finger prob
ably will keep him out of the game
for a couple of hours. He has pitched
only four games in two and one-half
weeks so It is not expected he will be
ready again before Sunday. "Suds'
has won three out of four.

BILLIARD STARS COMING
HOPPE AND GREEN LEAF
PLAY IX PORTLAND.
TO
Each Master of Game Established
by Start at Early Age in
Handling Cues.
Two of the greatest billiard Play
ers of the age both received their
start in the same manner. How
Willie Hoppe once used to stand on
soap boxes In order to reach the table
is familiar to the followers of bll
liards.
Hoppe was virtually cradled on a
table. The best part of early train
Ing was spent in learning the funds
mentals of billiards. Later he devel
oped a system that has made him
unbeatable and has given to him the
title of the world's greatest player.
Nov It is Ralph Oreenleaf that
owes his present high rating to the
fact that he adopted billiards as a
profession at the early age of seven.
When his father saw that the boy
took such an interest in the game
he had a track built around the table
and supplied his son with a set of
Ivory pocket billiard balls.
Oreenleaf made such progress that
at the age of 12 he was beating the
headliners consistently. At the age
of It he competed in the national
tournament in Chicago and finished
fourth. But at the age of 20 he had
perfected his game to such an extent
that he went through the entire field
of nine other starters without Buffer
ing the loss of a game, outplaying
all by a margin of to 1.
Here we have the two kings play
ing the game from childhood. This
Is the best proof that the stars in
any branch of sport seldom reach the
top unless they start early.
Grenleaf and Hoppe will appear In
Portland when the stars play at the
Rlalto billiard parlors.
Hoppe will open on Monday after
non and end his stay on Tuesday
night. His opponent will be Charles
C. Peterson, fancy shot champion, bil
liard authority and noted referee.
Greenleaf will be seen on Wednes
day afternon and evening. Jerome
Keog-h. a five times champion, will
be Greenleafs opponent.
The afternon games start at 2:30
o'clock and the evening contests at
8 o'clock.
