Conference Meeting Called Off for
Division of Gate Money.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal.,
May 13. The meeting of representa
tives of members of the Pacific coast
college conference et for tomorrow
has been called off. It was announced
here tonight.
This means there will be no recon
sideration of the "50-50 plan" for di
vision of gate receipts of conference
athletic events, which was adopted
for this year. Smaller colleges had
favored a plan whereby they were
given a guarantee of a .fixed return
in events at their home grounds.
Manager McCrcdie Announces That
Sjlvestcr Joluion Is Due
for larui.
LOS AXGliLliS, .May 13. (Special.)
Southpaw Sam Ross, released by
Vernon Sunday, is a Portland Eeaver
tonight. After considerable bartering
between Walter McCredie and"Baf.
riiiig'Bill" Kssiok over the telegraph
wire today and yesterday, the Vernon
manager, who is in Sacramenio,
agreed to the price offered by McCre
die.
Rom Makes O" n Deal.
Essick wanted to ship Ross to the
Beaumont club of the Texas league,
but upon the chucker's request per
mitted him to make a deal for him
self on the coast. Ross may work
against the Angels this week. He is in
superb condition.
Slim Sam came from the New York
Yankees to Vernon last season. He
pitched only five games for Vernon
last year, but made good with a bang.
The record book credits him with
four wins and one loss with a runs-pcr-gaine
average of .243. This gives
Ross a rank of eighth place among
Coast league hurlers for efficiency.
Frequent injuries kept him out of the
line-up, as they have thus far this
semester. Ross was obtained by the
Yanks from the International league,
where he was a star.
Nfw Fielder Hue From Detroit.
Manager McCredie also announced
tonight hat Pitcher Sylvester John
son, the Portland buslicr, will be
"farmed out" to a Pacific Interna
tional league club upon the team's
return home. Big Mack says that he
expects another outfielder from De
troit before that time. With this new
gardener, he declares his team will be
in the running all season.

Winners of National Title at San
Francisco Insist Upon Right
of Going to Antwerp.
Prior to the playing of the national
water polo title games In San Fran
cisco it was announced that the win
ner would be named as the American
team to go to Antwerp for the world
series title matches. The only east
ern team entered was the Illinois
Athletic club team which for years
has held the title, and has been recog
nized as the greatest water nolo ag
gregation in this country.
Title Won Before Starting.
Undoubtedly when the promise was
made that the winning team would
go to Antwerp, eastern officials could
not see how the men from Chicago
could lose the title. As far as the
east was concerned the title was al
ready won before the Illinois Athletic
club men left Chicago for the Pacific
coast. That there was a team on the
coast good enough to wrest the title
from Illinois never entered the heads
of the east and when the Olympic
club men did what was considered the
impossible" ail talk of the winning
team going to Antwerp was at once
dropped.
Rumors are now floating out from
the east that the American polo team
will be selected from the swimmers
who go to Antwerp for the various
programmed races. If that is correct
there appears to be a big row coming
along for Mr. American Athletic un
ion. Already the Olympic club has
taken steps to get the original plan
adJiered to. San Francisco members
of the American Olympic committee
are also going to the bat for the win
ning team and unless some definite
information is forthcoming swim
ming followers are going to hear an
explosion of fireworks from Califor
nia and Olympic club followers.
Teams Keeping In Condition.
In the meantime the champion
Olympic club team is keeping in con
dition. They are working out every
week at the Neptune beach tank in
Alameda. This is an outdoor tank
and as near as can be learned almost
identical with the tank that will be
used at Antwerp. The Olympians are
getting all the work they can and
in such a tank are getting as close
to Olympic games conditions fts it is
possible to.
There is no question of the ability
of the San Francisco team. The team
outplayed Illinois in the final game
and showed superiority on team work
that the Illinois men admitted was
the best and most nicely balanced out
fit they had ever seen play. The
Olympic club team that won the
title and is expecting to go to Ant
werp is composed of Otto Schultz
captain; Sandy Goodman, Jim Carson,
forwards; Jim Resleure, Tooth Gard
ner and Ernest Smith backs; Preston
Steiger, goal.

LEGE, Corvallis, May 13. (Special.)
The Aggie baseball team is sched
uled to play two games with the Uni
versity of Oregon at Eugene Friday
and Saturday. There is a possibility
of moving these games up one day.
Although the Aggies won two
games from Stanford last week, the
team is not in the best of shape.
Miller, who has been recovering from
a recent illness, was put in the second
Stanford game, but the work proved
too heavy for him, and a setback was
brought on. which has necessitated
his doini? almost no work at all this
week. The prospects are'that he may
not be strong enough to work at Eu
gene. Keene, who has been bearing
the brunt of the twirling since Mill
er's illness, threw his arm out last
week, and will be in poor shape to
work in the Oregon games. Hughes
is in good shape, as he has not done
any pitching recently.
Hubbard is limping around the
rumpus with a bruised hip, the re
sult of a collision with the Stanford
first baseman in last Saturday's
game. ' This will be a considerable
handicap. The balance of the team are
in good condition, and expects to give
a good account of themselves. The
recent addition of Lodell has added
much to the hitting strength of the
club. His three homers in the two
Stanford games were big factors in
the Aggie victories.
The Aggie rook team will cross
bats with Columbia university nine
on the local field Thursday afternoon
and with McMinnville high school on
May 15- The record of the rooks so
far is good, having split even with

SKW BOXING LAW PLEASES
SALEM, Or.. May 13. (Special.)
The state highway commission has a
legal right to make local changes In
the roads to eliminate curves or
grades and to bring about other im
provements, but it is not empowered
by law to abandon routes already es
tablished by the legislature, accord
ing to a decision hande'd down yes
terday by Judge G. F. Skipworth of
Lane county, in which he held against
tho commission in the case brought
by S. H.Rockhill of Riddle to restrain
the state from proceeding with the
construction of the so-called Canyon
ville cutoff section of the Pacific
highway.
Copies of the opinion were received
by J. M. Devers, attorney for the
state highway commission, today, and
it was later stated that the suit
probably would be carried to the su
preme" court for final determination.
In his opinion Judge Skipworth eays:
That the state highway commis
sion has no authority under the law
to open, locate and lay out new roads
as state highways, but only has au
thority as a matter of law to desig
nate as state highways roads that are
already laid out, opened and estab
lished by the county courts of the va
rious counties of the state.
"That said new road is not a re
location or local change of an estab
lished road, but involves the location.
establishment and laying out of a
i c v . vau tviiiuii, unaer ine law, saiu
commission had no right to do.
"That the said highway commis
sion is enjoined from changing ar at
tempting to change the route of the
Pacific highway between Myrtle creek
and Canyonville, in Douglas county,
running through the city of Riddle,
save and except local changes or re
location of present roads as provided
by statute.'
The contract for tho grading of the
Canyonville cutoff was awarded last
summer to Harry Hildeburn of Rose
burg, but before actual work was
commenced proceedings were filed in
the Douglas county circuit court to
enjoin the contractor from proceed
ing with the work. Since that time
the road has been in litigation.
ACCIDENTAL SHOT . KILLS
Clackamas Heights Resident Found
Dead by Insurance Agent.
OREGON CITY, Or., May 13. (Spe
cial.) John Marx, a resident of
Clackamas Heights, was accidentally
shot and killed yesterday about 4
o'clock. The body was found by Mr.
Rosenbaufrh, an insurance agent
when he called at the home on busi
ness.
Mr. Marx had been scooting moles
in his yard and was using an old
shotgun that was in poor repair. The
shot was heard by neighbors but lit
tle attention was paid to it as Mr.
Marx had been accustomed to
shooting.
Mr. Marx was 75 years old. He
was born in Germany and had lived
the United States for the last 30
years. He formerly resided at Park
place, wnere nis wife died four years
ago. He moved to Clackamas Heights
about a year ago and had since made
his home at that place with his two
sons. Ralph and William.
Coroner Johnson decided an inquest
would not be necessary. -The funeral
will be held tomorrow.
Griggs Is a harder man to pitch to
than Sam Crawford. He explains by
saying that Crawford can be made
to hit to one field, while Griggs hasn't
a weakness. Agnew should study a
textbook Issued by the A. G. Spald
ing company under the title "1920
Record Book. This little book
reveals that Crawford hit .360 last
year and Griggs .288. That is the
best answer to the argument.
Pans in San Francisco are waiting

TACOMA, Wash.. May 13. (Spe
cial.) It appeared today as if there
is going to be a mauling at the demo
cratic state convention in Spokane
next week.
With telegrams reported sent to
Washington by George Christiansen,
state chairman, and other Titlow
backers demanding the removal' of
David J. Williams, Tacoma collector
of internal revenue; Robert C. Saun
ders, district attorney, and Roscoe
Drumheller. customs collector, here's
what Williams had to say on the eve
of the departure of the delegates:
"Titlow was accused in the Pierce
county convention of prostituting his
office and no denial was made by him
or anyone.
"The telegraphic demand for the re
moval of federal officials is merely
an attempt to throw sand in the eyes
of the public and becloud the real
issue, which is the removal of Titlow.
"The telegrams charged that the
three federal officials were parties t.-j
disgraceful proceedings at the King
and Pierce county conventions and
that these men seem to have no re
gard for the high offices they hold.
The worst red has never been more
lawless than these men."
The telegrams were sent to Attor
ney-General Palmer and Secretary of
the Treasury Houston and were signed
by Titlow, State Chairman Christen-
sen, C. D. Pullen. chairman of the
King county committee, and George
E. Starr, King county state commit
teeman.

Coast League Gossip.
Salt Lake and Portland are leading
the Pacific Coast league in. team bat
ting, and Vernon and Sacramento are
leading in fielding. Portland ranks
sixth in fielding. One of the sur
prises of the year has been the rather
Bloppy .fielding work of Shortstop
Wes Kingdon. He is at the tail-end
of all the shortpatchers in fielding,
which was . supposed to be his main
forte. San Francisco ranks third in
batting and third in fielding. Seat
tle's lowly rank in the league 4s ex
plained by the figures, which show
the Rainiers last in batting and in
fielding.
The Salt Lake club has been
seriously crippled by the Jumping of
Pitcher Cullop and Outfielder Reilly
and yet the Bees go along winning.
Cullop did fine work in his few starts
and will be missed more than Reilly.
The desertions of Reilly, Cullop, Dell
Tub Spencer and others has stirred
the coast league paagnates to action
and there is a prospect that the
league may ask the federal courts for
an order restraining ballplayers who
have jumped contracts from playing
baseball elsewhere.
Portland is getting some air-tight
pitching. Walter Mack seems to have
a steady corps in Sutherland,
Schroedcr, Jones, Kallio and Poison.
