Members of local Club Getting In Shape and Expect 16 Win Fair Share of Contests. Saturday, May 29, is the day set by the Multnomah Amateur Athletic club for holding its portion of the events of the annual Pacific northwest as sociation swimming and diving cham- nlnnahin, TkU J i i . at the last meeting of the board of directors. This is date that Jack Cody, swimming Instructor of the club, and Prank E. Watkins. chair man of acquatics. have had In mind for some time. The events will be divided between the local club and the Crystal Pool of Seattle. Just what events will go to the Winged M club and what will be held in the Puget sound city is not known. Instructor Cody has asked for the 100 and the 50-yard dashes and the 100-yard breast stroke for women, and the 50, 509, 150-yard backstroke and fancy diving for men. If these are awarded to the local club It will mean that the 100 and 220-yard races, breast stroke and plunge for distance will go to Seattle. In addition the local programme of water events for the night of the championships will include a 50 and 100-yard race for juniors under 16 and a junior relay race. 1 - . The P. X. A. indoor championships Is the big aquatic affair of the season in the northwest and always brings out a classy field of entries. Word comes from the north that regardless of what events are held in Seattle and Portland, respectively, the Puget sound city will be well represented at both places. Cody, of the local club, has had his charges working out for some time in anticipation of the meet, and while he does not believe that his swimmers will have a walk-away, they are go ing to make a strong fight to carry off the majority of places. Bus Douglas has been making an exceptionally good showing in the workouts and it would not be sur prising if the former member of the iriter-allied swimming team would lower some of the P. N. A. records. Micky Wilscy. another of the Winged M stars, is rapidly rounding into shape after a sick spell and will be in,, good condition for the meet. Doug las. ' Wilsey and- Al Enegrene will probably be the club's entries in the 60-yard dash, while Douglas will also enter the 500. Ted Alonen, Collie Wheeler and O. J. Hosford will also ewm for the Winged M club in the 500. Should a large entry list make it necessary to swim the 50 and 500 in heats, the preliminary trials- will be run off in the afternoon. Jack Pobochanka, Mickey Rlngler and Brownie" Locke Webster will represent the club in the backstroke event, while Louis "Happy" Kuehn, Don Stryker and Webster, will enter In the fancy diving. . . , x Mrs. Constance Meyers Dressier. who will have charge of swimming at Columbia beach this summer, report that- the work of renovating is now quite ' complete.

HYE TAKES TWO FALLS WITHIN HOUR Ted Thye, middleweight wrestling champion of the world, had too much class for Sailor Hoffman. 170-pounder of New York, and threw the latter twice within an hour in their match at the Olympic gymnasium hall last Ight before a packed house of en thusiastic wrestling fans and fanettes. A goodly gathering of the - fairer sex was in attendance at the show, which was replete with action from start to finish. Thye did not really throw Hoffman on the two occasions, the latter being forced to quit both times because of punishing holds that Thye had which would have Inflicted bodily injury if he had not given up. Champion Takes First Fall. The champion won the first fall in an even 25 minutes when he clamped wrist lock on Hoffman. It was the selfsame wrist-lock hold with which Thve won the middleweight championship of'theworld from Wal- er Miller In their titular match at tne Heilig theater last year. On that oc casion Miller refused to give up and as the result had his shoulder torn out of place and was unable to come back for the finish. It also laid him up for nearly six months. The sailor from New York played the sale game last night and when he saw what Thye had on him gave up after vainly trying to break one of the most terri ble and grueling holds in the grap pling game. Thye registered the secona tan in 0 minutes with a toe hold, another bone crusher if the man who is in it does not give up. Fans who recall the famous Gotch-Hackenschmldt match will remember that It was with the toe hold that Frank made the Russian lion quit. The toe hold, head lock, strangle hold, hammerlock and, wrist lock are those in the wrestler's line which mean a broken bono or torn ligament if forced. Hoffman Use "Weight. Hoffman gave Thye a good tussle while it lasted and used his weight advantage in good stead. He had Ted in several tight holes ouring me contest and only the champion's great all-round ability pulled him through at times. The match was an inter esting one and not a minute of stali ng was Indulged In By eitner man. Thye was in to win and win quick if he could and HoIIman was on tne mat with the same idea in mind. Two- good preliminaries were staged. Roy Lesher, well-known local wrestler, undertook to throw two men a half hour and succeeded, tossing Art Loders in 9 minutes and Young Farmer Burns in 6 minutes. Lesher, who is a formidable matman. was originally billed to -meet Basanta Singh, the v Hindu, in a 30-mlnute match, but the latter was unaoie to fulfill his engagement when he threw his knee cap out yesterday. Lesher threw Loders wltn a reverse headlock and Burns with a head scis sors. Both men tried hard but were outclassed. Jim Thores, the Greek demon, threw Billy Hendrickson of Vancouver in 25 minutes with a three-quarter Nelson and crotch hold. Thores weighed about 160, while Hendrickson an nounced his weight as 153 pounds. Lesher scales about 150 and his op ponents the same. Last night's pro gramme was a great success and speaks- well for the revival of the wrestling game here. Ad Garlock.ref- ereed the matches. now negotiating with Champion Benny Leonard to meet Schuman. It la the plan of Marino to send his protege against the champion at Seattle over the four-round route.
