THE 3IORXIXG OREGOXIAN, FRIDAY, AUGUST 6, 1920 13 EDDIE MAY NOT RETURN Multnomah Instructor Away . on California Trip. ' CLASS CHANGES LIKELY Congestion at Club May Cause Forming of Pepartment for Each Sport. Edward J. O'Connell. for the past several years boxing and wrestling Instructor at the Multnomah Amateur Athletic club, will in all probability not return to the Winged M Institu tion this fall when the winter activi ties are resumed. This was the consensus of opinion among the club officials yesterday, who stated that O'Connell had left the club in June for a trip through California and that it was practically certain that he would not again take up his dutea in the fall. Class Change Likely A change In the method of han dling the boxing and wrestling classes to be inaugurated this Win ter at the Winged M club is the reason given by the club of ficials for the securing of new in structors. The plan now on foot is to segregate' the boxing and wrestling classes and to have a man at the head of each department. It is thought that this plan did not alto gether meet with the approval of O'Connell and is one of the main rea sons why be will not return this win ter. Owing to the congestion In the classes when handled ty one instruc tor under the same department the club has been somewhat handicapped when It came to turning out champion grapplcrs and mitt men and it is ex pected that the new plan will remedy this. More material -can be developed In each department and more atten tion can be given those who show promise of developing into cham pions. As yet nothing has been done by the Multnomah club as to seourlng new Instructors for the departments. O'Connell Here 11 Years. O'Connell has been with the local club since 1909, coming here from Yale university, where he was an in structor in boxing and wrestling after his graduation. He is nationally known as a wrestler, having at one time laid claim to the welterweight title. It was through the influence of the late Edgar Frank, national amateur wrestling champion and a former member of the Multnomah club, that O'Connell was' brought to the coast. While training for a national meet in the east Frank made the acquaintance of O'Connell and upon his return to Portland secured him the position with the loral club. nw . mi 'nrvfti .-' .1. .-. i in im.4ihwh I if f - i k. r-- J .1 ' A r i TV ' f: 1 i St 1 - 1 ifciv. t . -y - . k Homcn from lStmov'i recent prodacilon, Sirongei Than Deaih," ihow ingr for the laat timei today at the Star theater BARNES DROPS ONE TITLE HCJCHIXSOX TAKES WESTEBX OPE.V GOLF HONORS.

Scoring was comparatively high and the play of the leaders was erratic. fo that the winner was not decided until the last contestant finished. Jim Larnes, who won the title twice with k record score, of 2S6. took 83 for the rirst round ot the longer of the two courses used. He redeemed his changes Wednesday afternoon by sett'.n; recora ot s ior tne shorter course four under par. He was two over par in touay s iirst nine ana came home in one unaer par, ouc was still six strokes behind Hutchinson, who had scored 72-73-71 for his first three rounds. The leader fell off in the last round making SO for the short course, and had scarcely totaled his 29 when word came that Uarnes was coin well and needed only three pars to win. The St. Louis player reached the last tee with four strokes to tie Hutchinson, who had taken six on that hole. Barnes drove 260 yartfs across a creek, but the ball rolled into a wood behind a stump. From an apparently impossible lie Barnes sent the ball to the green and had an 18-foot putt for victory. He Kave the ball plenty of chance to go down, but was an inch off the ;ine and missed the five-foot sidehill sec ond putt for a tie. Hutchinson, who never won a title before, gave competitors several chances to overtake him, getting into a trap on the 16th hole and taking eight strokes and trytng his luck.

This homely. hard-bitten, sun-tanned wit of the wettern plains, with his bashful grin ana twinkling eyes, comes closer to the accepted ideal of the typical American than any man before the public. In "Jes' Call Me Jim" Will Rogers has a part that seems as well suited to his personality as the flannel shirt and coon-skin cap he wears. As Jim fcenton, the simple, rugged woods man, he is a character your patrons will not easily forget. His bashful code of honor, his loyalty to a friend, and above all, his delightful humor, are reflected in a picture that is bet ter than "Jubilo" and "The Strange Boarder." good as they were.

(Copyrieht by the New York World. Pub- uanea Dy Arranfemcnt.lL YOUNGSTOWN. O.. Aug. 5. (Spe cial.) The 36-hole best ball match that we played over the excellent course of the Youngstown Country club today was the most hotly con tested one that we have played since we 'began our tour. It was halved. as it should have been. We were one down for the morning round and one up for the afternoon.' Harry Vardon and I were against Emmett French, the club professional, and Herbert C. Lagerblade, who for merly held that position. They both played exceedingly well, but French, to my mind, is one of the finest golfers I have seen. I could not find a flaw in any stroke he made. When we first began I thought that French was a bit weak in bis putting, but as the game warmed up I learned that I had been badly mis taken in my first impression. He can putt; he-can drive, he can take good care ot himself in trouble. . Lsk im Mateh Changes. Lagerblade seemed not to have been too keen; apparently he has not been on the links recently as often as .would be good for him. His form was fitful. He played amazingly early in the day and afterward at irregular intervals. He convinced me that he can do much better. But bis eye was not quite right. He had a bit of ill luck, too. He played about the rim of the hole on his long4 putts just about as much as Jim Barnes did at Hollywood last Sunday. The turn the match trok is an as tonishing thing. I got away to rarely good start In the morning by holing out five birdie threes in the first five holes, a four on the sixth and a par three oi. the seventh. At the fourth hole we became four up and I was beginning to have visions of a runaway match score, perhaps win by 7 or up for the day. But things took a change. They had got the sixtTi hole by grace of an ap proach spot to the rim by Lagerblade, and then he won the ninth by a long putt. French got going at the tenth and took a birdie three for that and for the next one. At the fourth he went under par again by running down a 30-foot putt for a four, while the rest of us were playing along lor fives. Harry Vardon gave us a glint of hone by sinking his ball at 10 feet for a two on the fifteenth but French got another and we went in to lunch eon, one down. Vardon's Pnttins Game Suffers. More brilliant golf was displayed during the afternoon, with Harry Vardon ' shedding luster and French playing well-nigh perfectly. Vardon was somehow off in his putting game today. He missed several that were within a Very few feet of the hore. The fact is, he did not appear to have nearly as much difficulty in sinking his putts from lies 10 and 15 feet away as he did these short ones. He ha3 had a bad week of it in this de tail of his game. He can run them down, short or long. But now he is in the grasp of a little spell of putt illness. Everybody gets it once in awhile but Vardon has got it slightly worse than most cf the others evtjr have it. Before I try to tell what he Is doing th&t he shouldn't, I want you to know that it is not malignant nor pernicious, and he will probably be thoroughly curef. of it by Saturday. He was the first one to discover the trouble. Vardon is not putting ctraight. He is slightly pulling his strokes here and is not striking in a straight line. He is crossing the line that the ball should follow with the club, and only a few days ago he was playing them exactly proper.

Changes in the rules affect the stymie, the lost-ball penalty, amateur and professional definitions, stan dardized ball and other minor details. All changes take effect September 1. except the standard ball ruling, which will go into effect in May. 1921. The new rules are: Professional definition: One who, after attaining the age of 16, has carried clubs for hire, received any consideration, either directly or in directly for playing or for teaching the game, or for playing in a match or tournament, or for a money prise in any tournament. Every application for reinstatement to amateur status will be considered on its own merits, but a player, may not be reinstated more than once. Violations of the amateur rule In clude: Lending one's name or like ness for the advertisement or sale of anything except as a dealer, manu facturer. or inventor thereof: per mitting one's name to be advertised or published for pay as the author of books or articles on golf of which one is not actually the author. There will be the same penalty for lost ball, unplayable ball and out of bounds; in other words, the player must go back to where he played from and lose stroke and distance, and a provisional ball may be played to save time. The stymie definition states a stymie is laid when both balls are on the putting green and the opponent's ball "lies in any position which the player regards as interfering with his line, provided the balls be not within six inches of each other. The rule then provides that "if the opponent lay the player a stymie, the player may remove the opponent's ball; the opponent shall then be deemed to have holed in his next stroke." If the Kolfer playing within the putting green lays himself a stymie the rule, does not apply. The rule regarding the standardized ball requires that the weight of the HAL MfiHGN GETS STIES GREAT BRITTON TIES FOR FAST 3-YEAR-OLD MARK.

McCarthy Says Demand for Hear ing Is Almost Too Late, as Chance Was Given. SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 5. Presi dent Willian H.

Maggert was unconditionally re leased on the charge that he received S300 from Borton. The two players claimed this was in payment of a gambling debt contracted about a year ago. Suspicious actions sur rounding the payment Caused the ac tion against the players, it was an nounced. "I . told Mr. Maier over the long distance telephone to Los Angeles Capable Runners in Former Olym pic Contest Watched Each Other Too Closely and Lost. The runner who will attempt to up hold America s half-mile supremacy in the coming 800-meter Olympic championship at Antwerp faces the- same danger that wrecked the United States' hopes in the 1500-meter race at Stockholm eight years ago. In the middle distance contest at Stockholm America had three first string runners Norman Taber, John Paul Jones and Abel Kiviat. All or the trio were perfectly capable of beating 4 .minutes and 18 second for the mile, ana the rivalry between them was Intense. It was this rivalry that proved their downfall.

If fate is kind to America at Ant werp, Uncle Sam should have three. and possibly four, flnalsts in the 800- meter dash with Earl Eby of the University of Pennsylvania, Allan Helffrich of the New York Athletic club. Lieutenant Don Scott of the United States army and Joie Ray of the Illinois Athletic club. It is the next thing to a certainty, too. that Beril G. D. Rudd of South Africa will be the "Jackson" of that race. It remains now for the Yankee half-milers to run that race regardless of personal ambitions, so that Rudd will be overwhelmed in the final 100 yards by the speed and strength of one or more of them. The situation in the Antwerp race will be a bit dif ferent than it was at Stockholm, if Don Scott qualifies for the final Scott is essentially a front runner. When the gun goes off he dashes to the lead and fairly "eats it up,", as the runners say. If perfectly fit, Scott will go to the quarter in 53 sec onds and he won't stop there. Such a condition will resolve the contest into a test of. real "half miling." which should show Eby, with his ability to ing the proposed appropriation of i water from the north fork of Wilson river for a municipal water supply.

Both Bowman and Arnold denied Hubbard's assertion, and District At torney Saunders stated that insuffi cient evidence had been produced .to warrant detaining them further. Hubbard, the story runs, demurred at revealing his secret. He gathered then, he says, that he would be ar rested if he did not permit tbe coil to be examined. A coil was produced which was ex amined, but Hubbard admitted that it was not the real apparatus he had used in his tests, but merely a dummy which he had constructed to deceive Dossible thieves. Then he agreed to meet Bowman and Arnold in front of the Savoy ho tel today at noon ostensibly for the purpose of testing out his coil in an automobile. Bowman agreeing to furnish the machine.
