BT BICK SHARP.
- Billy Gibson, the astute New York
manager of boxers, boxing promoter
.and cafe owner, who looks after Ben
ny Leonard, lightweight champion of
the world, Joe Benjamin and Boy Mc
cormick, expects to have a real match
lined up for the latter, when Boy re
turns to New York.
McCormick has received a letter
from Gibson to the effect that Billy
Is angling for a match with Mike
O'Dowd. either at Tex Bickard's Mad
ison square garden club or at the
newly opened Commonwealth Athletic
cltlb of New "STork.
Minrmiclt weiehed In yesterday
at the Olympic gymnasliwri and shiv
ered the scales at 159 pcrunds, just
one pound over the middleweight lim
it, and Boy is not making weight.
Furthermore, the modern middle
weights are not making better than
160 pounds.
Jonnny Wilson weighed 162 when
he received a 12-round decision over
the then champion Mike O'Dowd in
Boston. One of O'Dowd's big plaints
was that Wilson had not made the
championship weight limit of 158
pounds. This was disregarded and,
although the world knows that Mike
is the real champ, Wilson sure enough
has the title and is getting away with
it by not fighting.
McCormick. who Is training hard
for his ten-round match against Wil
lis M:chan at the Mliwaukie arena
next Wednesday night, took time
enough yesterday to tell about the
O'Dowd proposition and that he would
be tickled to death to battle another
fighting Irishman. Portland boxing
followers can imagine what a battle
a bout between McCormick and
O'Dowd would be. Two pure and
simple fighters with Just enough box
ing ability to carry them through,
both hrd pr-chars and game to the
core. The New York customers would
certainly be in for a r.re dish if Billy
Gibson manages to clinch a 15-round
set-to between Boy and Mike O'Dowd.
Joe Benjamin, the best lightweight
that Portland has ever been able to
brag about, arrived here yesterday
from Milwaukee, Wis. Joe Is all
broken over his defeat at the hands of
Ritchie Mitchell, but the fect that
he had the better of the going up to
the ninth round of the battle does
not make him feel quite so bad. Joe
only hopes that he can get Mitchell
in the squared circle with him again.
All of the Milwaukee papers were
outspoken in that Benjamin would
have been clearly entitled to the
newspaper decision had the bout gone
the ten-round distance. Benjamin says
he was given a raw deal all around
in Milwaukee.
After , working for three weeks
"Benjamin arrived on the ground two
days before the match, planning on
resting up so as not to be stale the
night of the go. The boflng commis
sion of that city got hold of him and
forced him to work out both days
before the body. The night of the
fight somebody stoie Benjamin's $175
overcoat which he bought in New
York only two weeks ago.
The porst of all was a fast count
turned In by the referee. Mitchell
caught Joe off his balance with a
right cross in the ninth round. Ben
jamin decided to take advantage of-a
count and had hardly hit the floor
when he heard the refeiee tolling
off seven. He jumped up and
slammed Mitchell with a rlftht and
then stepped into a clinch. The ref
eree broke them and in the break
away Mitchell lipped In another
right-hand wallop that sent Joe over.
He took the count of nine this time
so as to recuperate, and upon arising
to his feet went into a clinch against
the ropes. Mitchell gave him a wal
lop In the break, upsetting Joe, and
the fight was stopped. The bell was
about to ring and Joe wouid have
probably come out strong In the tenth
and at least struck the ten had the
battle gone on.
Following Is an account of part of
the battle as written by the boxing
critic of the Milwaukee Sentinel:
"Benjamin's showing was like that
of a master for eight rounds. He
worked in and out with machine-like
motion and scored wickedly with his
right time and again. In the second
round the followers of Mitchell were
given a rude jolting when Benjamin,
forcing the fighting, scored with a
heavy right to Rich's Jaw. The blow
shook up the local star and when
Benjamin kept swinging "em from
every direction It appeared as though
he would spring a big surprisa on
the boxing public by stopping the
marvelous blond. Mitchell managed
to remain on his feet throughout the
session, but he was mighty weary
when ha returned to his corner.
"Those who attended the ehow with
the hope of seeing Benjamin hang
one on Rich's chin were un on their
feet and shouting wildly when the
bell rang at the end of the second
Inning. It was a hectic session for
them. Following this outburst the
pair battled like a couple of game
cocks for six stanzas and at the end
of the eighth both fighters appeared
to be Just as etrong as at the start-
Benjamin cams out In the ninth and
continued to hook with his left. He
found difficulty In reaching Mitchell
wita" his right hand. Joe feinted
with a right and scored with a left

and runner-up, respectively. In 1919,
again will meet in a game which will
decide the championship. Ohio State
with an undefeated record, was ex
pected to be a slight favorite over
the Illini, who lost to Wisconsin, but
the fact that the game would be
played on llinois' home field was
looked upon by some to offset this
slight advantage.
Ohio State by winning tomorrow
would have a clean slate, while Illi
nois, if victorious, would possess a
record of five victories and one defeat
against a mark of 41& for the Buck
eyes. -
The next . three positions In the
standing present such a complicated
m:x-up that Wisconsin, Indiana Iowa
and Chicago are fighting, for them,
with the outcome resting on tomor
row's contests. Wisconsin meets Chi
cago here and la iven the advantage
of previous scores. Victory for Wis
coi sin and Ohio State would place the
Badgers in second place.

Indiana and Purdue are expected to

Sixth Straight Victory for Home
Team Is Hard-Fought Contest;
La Grande to Be Next.
PENDLETON, Or.. Nov. 19. (Spe
cial.) Pendleton high school foot
ball team continued its unbroken
string of victories today by winning
the sixth straight game of the season
by whitewashing the heavy Waits
burg, Wash., eleven by a score of 42
to 0 In a hard-fought contest.
Pendleton took the lead early in the
game, crossing the visitors' goal line
during the first five minutes of play,
after Warner recovered a fumble and
made a 50-yard run to the 20-yard
line. Stendal carried the ball over on
the next play with a criss-cross run,
Hanley kicking goal.
In the second quarter tendal again
crossed the goal line on .a criss-cross
play after running the ball to the

son made a th'rd touchdown soon
after the opening of that period and
later Hanley went over.

crossed for a touchdown, Hanley
kicked all goals.
The local eleven will meet La

First Games of 192 0-21 Season In
dicate Manager Brooks Has
First-Grade Team, .
The Arleta Athletic club basketball
team started the j.920-21 season by
winning two games In Tne night.
Manager Brooks has sufficient play
ers this season for two teams of
about the same caliber.
In the first game Thursday night;
at the Franklin high school gym
nasium, the Alameda quintet was
badly beaten by the score of 33 to 18.
This was not enough in one night
for the Arleta boys, eo they pro
ceeded to trounce the fast St. Johns
five 21 to 15.
The team work of the Arleta aggre
gation was exceptionally good con
sidering the early season. Their
passing showed mid-season form and
the basket shooting of the entire
team is bound to prove a stumbling
block for any of the independent
teams in the state.
In the diminutive quartet of for
wards, Hobson, King, Thomas and
Scott, Manager Brooks has a wonder
ful scoring combination. With the
new rules permitting change of
players, this combination is bound
to work a hardship on the best of
guards. Captain Johnny Kolkana is
oi orthe best guards in the state,
being last, a good shot and a hard
man to score . on. while the Johnson
brothers, Blake and Piluso, present
an almost impregnable combination
at defense.
Sergeant Ensil Todd, United, States
marine corps, who plays forward or
center, is the dark horse of -the team,
being the only man unknown to the
Independent basketball followers.
Last year he made a great showing
with the Pacific university and from
his playing Thursday night he is
going to prove of value to the Arleta
club. v

Sport News and Comment
It is unusual and refreshing when one
reads of a professional athlete willing to
concede that his success was not due en
tirely to his own' efforts ana giving crean
to others. "Walter Malls, pitcher for the
world champion baseball team, is unusually
generous In this-connection, for he ascribes
one-half his pitching success to the man
at the receiving end,
This recalls a number of Instances where
men who do the spectacular part of the
team play get practically all the credit,
much of which should go to the men who
pave the way for this individual brilliancy.
Take the case of a halfback in football.
He gets away for a run of 40 or 50 yards
down the field and the Btands rear aloft
in a roar of sound and a confusion of
color. In the meantime the tackle or
mrH in his Una who made the hole he
went through probably Is lying tangled up
In an incoherent mass totally unoDservea
by the crowd, which has its eye on the
fellow who made the spectacular run.
