Two Innovations will be tried out
at next Friday night's card of the
Portland boxing commission at the
armory. Both of these should prove
(rreatly beneficial to the same and
meet with the decided approval of
, the boxing fans.
The first will correct the faulty
manner of announcing- decisions. It
has been the custom for the referee
to collect the slips from the two
Judges with their verdicts written on
them. Ia case of a disagreement be
tween the two judges, the third man
in the ring is called upon to make
the decision. With the referee col
lecting the slips he is in a position
to know exactly how the judges vote.
A referee without much confidence
In his own judgment on any certain
match could thus be swayed by the
votes of the judges, and on numerous
occasions the referee has perhaps
escaped from the predicament by
calling a bout a draw.
tinder the new system, which
will be introduced by the boxing
commission, the announcer will col
lect the votes of both judges and
the referee before making the an
nouncement of the result. Thus
each official must vote without hav
ing the slightest knowledge of the
decision of the other two. Hereafter
the referee will have to vote bis
judgment and not base it on the de
cisions of the two judges. Of course,
perhaps the referee has not been
doing that, but at any rate it will
clear up all doubts.
If two votes agree, that is the de
cision. A draw 'a possible only in
the event that two of the officials
so vote, or if all three votes disagree.
Another new wrinkle being used in
will be the blowing of a whistle
ten seconds before the minute rest
is up between rounds. In New
York the assistant timekeeper blows
a whistle ten seconds before the
round is up ' and ten seconds be
fore the rest is up. The idea of
blowing a whistle ten seconds be
fore the round is up has met with
a lot of disfavor, but the other time
that It is blown is said to be a boon
to the game. When the whistle Is
blown ten seconds before the round
is up It tends to confuse the boxers
and especially boys who are boxing
under such a rule for the first time.
Nine times out of ten a boxer will
turn to his corner at the whistle,
mixing It with the belL Blowing a
whistle ten seconds before time is up
for the rest means that all of the nu
merous seconds which clamber in the
ring to fan, rub and throw water on
a boxer must vacate the ring. Only
the boxer himself and bis chief out
Bide the ropes remain near tne cor
ner. When the bell rings for the re
sumption of the battle four or five
seconds are not scrambling out of
the ring from all sides, pulling the
stool, yelling and obstructing the
view of the fans, as well as even
gumming up a match at times.

FANS GET CHANCE TO LOOK
BEAVERS OVER NEXT TUESDAY
Home Opening in Hands of Portland Baseball Boosters Game to
Start at 3 o'Clock With Salt Lake Bees Opponents.
BY L. H. GREGORY.
THIS coming week will be tough
, on grandmothers. Scores of the
poor old women seem doomed for
the casualty lists in spite of all pre
cautions, for one week from today,
next Tuesday, April 19, the Portland
Beavers open the baseball season here
against Salt Lake.
Seven games on the pink side of
the well-known ledger are not a
rah-rah start, to be sure, but a poor
beginning in baseball doesn't always
mean a quavery ending. Seattle last
season got away to a terrible start,
yet all but nosed out Vernon for the
pennant at the finish. Give those
faltering Beavers some leavening on
the shortstop side of the diamond, a
couple of additional flingers and a
chance on the home lot for some
practice, which they don't get on the
road, and they have real possibilities.
But Portland can give the club the
once over for itself next Tuesday
afternoon at 3 o'clock, weather per
mitting. Judge McCredie has turned
over all arrangements for the open
ing to the Portland baseball boosters.
who have elected Frank Callahan
east. And Pitcher Conkwr'ght has
been half promised, though it takes
two halves to make a whole of any
thing. Conkwrlght ought to help the fal
tering hurling staff a lot if he comes.
With Bloomington, of the Three-I
league, last year, he won 24 games
and lost only seven. Curiously
enough, Conkwright, then fresh from
the University of Utah, first broke
in with McCredie at Salt Lake in
1918. He had a lot of stuff, but was
too wild to keep. One of the players
with Billy Speas' Regina club, of the
Western Canada league, now in train
ing at Salem, Or., who was in the
Three-I league last year, says he has
gained control; and in consequence,
how that he can put his stuff where
he wants it, is a wonderful pitcher.
But he might be the greatest pitcher
in the world and not do the Beavers
any good unless he is sent to them.
When Detroit failed him Walt
turned for help to the Chicago Cubs,
who owed him two players and a
cash sum for George Maisel. "Sure,"
said the Cubs, "we'll help you. Wait

(Special.) The second annual puppy
trials of the Washington Field Trial
dab were run today over the Grand
Macleays Very Xear to Defeat In
First Half, bnt Goalkeeper Gibbs
Good Work Saves His Eleven.
The dope was again upset in the
Portland Soccer Football association
league Sunday, when the Standifer
team held the fast Hacleay eleven
to a one-to-one tie score on Columbia
park field. It was one of the hardest-fought
games played this season.
Only the ability of Percy Gibbs,
goalkeeper for the Scots, in fisting
the ball from his own goal saved the
Macleay team from certain defeat in
the first half. The Standifer boys
were driving in shot after shot only
to have them stopped by Gibbs.
The second period reverted to of
fensive play on the part of the Ma
cleay forwards, who fairly stormed
the Standifer defense, and when the
final whistle sounded the shipyard
boys readily admitted they wejre ex
ceptionally fortunate in getting off
with a tie score.
Johnny Woods, ex-professional and
star center forward of the league,
starred for Standifer as usual. Woods
was able to connect with three good
chances, one going for a goal, while
tbe other two landed in Columbia
slough.
Next Sunday a benefit game will
be played on Columbia park field
between the Canadian Veterans,
champions of Portland, and Standifer
Shipyard, champions of Vancouver,
Wash. Much interest is centered on
this contest, as it will serve in the
form of an old-country international
contest.

in Portland Tuesday morning. That
will give plenty of leeway for the
game to start at 3 o'clock.
The Boosters at a meeting with
Judge McCredie yesterday decided to
follow the example of San Francisco
and have no parade, but instead to
stage various ceremonies and snappy
stunts at the ball Dark preceding the
game. Among other events there will
be a band concert and au official flag
rasinz conducted by the . United
States marines, preceding which the
nlavers of both teams will marcn
around the field led by the band.
The gates of the ball park will
open at 12:30 o'clock and the teams
will begin their batting practice at
1:30 sharp. This will be followed
by the regular fieldng practice,
which will end at 2:30 o'clock so the
ceremonies may be put on
The Boosters are arranging with
various merchants tc offer prizes for
the home player making the first hit,
the first run, the first two-bagger,
the first home run and all that.
Invitations will be sent Governor
Olcott and Mayor Baker to form the
battery to start the season. In San
Francisco last we-k Mayor Rolfe
.pitched the first ball and'Chief of
Police OBrien caught it, or rather
tried to catch it Tho mayor was
attired in a San Francisco baseball
uniform, with the rather unusual
combination of patent leather boots.
Next Tuesday will formally and
officially open the Coast league sea
son here, but in the meantime there
will be games at the Vaughn-street
park Saturday and Sunday, and prob
ably Friday also, of this week. On
Friday the New York Colored Giants,
who played the Beavers several prac
tice games at Santa Maria, are sched
uled to hook up with Billy Speas'
Regina club of the Western Canada
league at Salem, but that game prob
ably will be transferred to Portland.
On Saturday the samt two teams
play here, and on Sundcy Speas' club
is to clash with the Interstate All
Stars, a team composed of ex-service
men.
Managers of Pacific Coast lea true
baseball clubs might well adopt as a-
woEJcing motto, "Put not your trust in
major league magnates." What has
happened to Portland so far shows
why.
All alibis aside, though, what ball
players call "the breaks of. the game"
without exception went against Port
land in tbe opening series at San
Francisco. If Detroit and Chicago, or
either of them, had done for the
Beavers what they promised to do
when Detroit took Suds Sutherland
and Chicago got George Maisel, there
would be a somewhat different story
to tell of the opening series. The
Beavers then would have had a third
baseman and a shortstop, and at least
a couple more pitchers, and those are
the precise spots wherein the team Is
weak.
Detroit owes Portland four ball
players and Chicago owes three. What
is more, tbey still owe them. Some
time, perhaps, the players will be sent
along. But in the meantime lack of
the men Walter McCredie was count
ing on so strongly to bolster up bis
weak spots has put the team away to
a poor start.
Walt had counted since last fall on
getting Sargent from Detroit to play
third or short Sargent was a whale
of a third eacker with Buffalo last
season. But Sargent wasn't sent, nor
any other infielder to take his place.
So It goes. True, Detroit has prom
ised to send Outfielder Fothergil, who
led the Three-I league - last season
with a batting average of .332, but at
last accounts the lllneasof Fother
gil's mother was keeping him la the
I
After a reason
able wait Walt went to Pasadena,
where the Cubs were training, to get
his players. He was promised Don
Brown, a third baseman; Freeman, a
big right-handed pitcher from the
Texas league, and Oscar Fuhr, a
southpaw with Omaha in the West
ern league last year, all to report in
another week. That seemed to take
care of the third-base hole and to add
the needed pitchers. But came the
end of the week and none of them
reported, and requests lor ' informa
tion elicited nothing.
Finally, the Saturday before the
season opened, McCredie went to San
Francisco at Johnny Evers' request.
He supposed then he was sure to
get his men. But to his astonish
ment, Evers told him there was
noth'ng doing on any of the three,
though the Cubs have two other third
sackeri besides Brown and a raft of
pitchers, and that the best he could
do was to let Walt know from the
east in another week whether he
would get any players.
McCredie told the Cub chief that
be wanted an infielder so desperately
he would cancel the whole debt for
Maisel, and ft was a nice, tidy sum,
if he would turn over to him just one
good infielder. But Evers held fast
All this is mentioned just to show
how difficult it is to pry any kind
of a player out of the major leagues
this season, and the ends to which
the Portland manager has gone to try
to get the players he needs to bolster
up the club. With third base and
shortstop filled, two more good fling
ers, and a reasonable share of the
"breaks," this Portland club wouldn't
have to take the dust of many out
fits in the Coast league.
Shortstop is a much more pressing
problem than third base, where the
veteran Willis Butler, signed original
ly for utility infielder, is filling In
very well. Kingdon was started on
short the opening day, and played a
beautiful game, but had the misfor
tune to twist his knee. That made it
necessary to rely on the two kids,
Pep Young and Hazen Paton, neither
of whom ever played professional
ball before.
Portland isn't the only club that is
fretting about the treatment received
from major league outfits. San Fran
cisco expects another outfielder from
uetrolt, and Is wonderine whv he
doesn't show up. Los Angeles has
a player promised from the same
team, and he hasn't showed up. Oak
land, too, is waiting for heln. also
from the Tigers. While Salt. Lake is
In much the same position as Port
land, compelled to rely on youngsters
until tne wnite Sox get ready to send
aiong players in return on Sheely,
Johnson and Mulligan.
Before thay could get any assist
ance at all, most of these clubs were
compelled to give a major league
club an option on their team, which
means that in return for nlayers
sent, tbe major leaguer at the end
of the season can grab any player or
piayers it likes. When the Pacific
Coast league recently rejected the
draft it put itself in a much worse
position than before because now the
major leagues in return for players
demand practiaally a mortgage on all
the likely young players the club
may have. In addition to which the
major league club in most cases only
lends the players it sends, absolutely
declining to relinquish title to them
except where they are old-timers like
Morris Rath at San Francisco, Ernie
Shore at Vernon, and the like, whose
usefulness in the big leagues has
ended. Under the old draft rules only
one player could be drafted from any
Pacific coast club, making just eight 1
from the league all told, and the
clubs could always beat the draft on
their good men by selling them for
delivery at the end of the season.
before the drafting period opened.
But now on their optional agreement
requirements the majors can just
wreck a good minor league and not
give much in return.
There is more than a suspicion that
one reason coast league clubs are
'finding it so hard to get players from
the majors Is that the majors are
disciplining the coast for having re
jected the draft. Maybe so, maybe
not. But it looks that way. Curious
ly, Portland, which favored the draft,
has been hit hardest in the disciplin
ing process, if that is what It is.
San Francisco is a tough town to
play ball in when the wind is blow
ing. And -it was blowing about 40
miles an hour a week ago last Sun
day when the Cubs played an exhibi
tion game with San Francisco. About
the fourth inning' a Cub knocked a
high fly toward left center. The cen
ter fielder started for it, but just
over the infield a gust caught the
ball and began, sailing it toward first
base. First the shortstop moved for
it Then the second baseman legged
after it, and finally the first base
man joined in the chase. That ball
eventually just ticked the first base
man's glove and went over his head,
lighting barely inside the first base
foul line for a freak single.
But that's nothing particularly un
usual in the . San Francisco park.
There was a nipping wind there all
last week that was particularly chill
ing on a pitcher's arm. That may ac
count for some of the pitching the
Beaver staff has been giving, for very
evidently the flingers are not in condition.

Tennis is getting under way In
California, and it will not be long
before the Pacific northwest gets
out its rackets and nets. The gen
eral public is not conversant with
the history of tennis and It will
probably surprise many to know that
this game, at which players of the
Pacific coast are now conceded to be
the greatest in the world, dates back
to the days of the Greeks and the
Romans. - England got her tennis from
these old nations by way of France.
In the 12th century a game was
played with a ball and "gutted bat,"
the players being astride horses.
Then the steeds were dispensed with
and the game known as "La Baude"
became the vogue. In the time of
Louis X it was known as the royal
game of Baude and we are told, that
King Louis died from chills brought
or. by playing the game. The game
got such a hold at this time that the
church deemed it necessary to pro
hibit the prie3ts on the European
continent from spending too. much
time at the sport.
Kings Take l"p the Game.
In the 12th century a French wom
an known as Margot held the pride of
Piace that May Sutton held some
years ago and that Molla Bjurstedt
Mallory enjoys today. Henry VIII
of England took up the same and in
France Louis XIV's books show that
he paid salaries for caretakers of his
courts. . About this time it was a
common'saying, "There are more ten
nis players in France than drunkards
in England."
The game got such a hold that the
manufacture of balls, rackets and
nets started many men of the day
toward their fortunes and in the 16th
century an appeal was made to the
English parliament for a protective
tariff against imported tennis balls.
Just prior to this the game was in
reality "handball' but when rackets
were Invented It still further in
creased the popularity of the game.
In one match played at Windsor
Castle court the "King of Castille"
gave his opponent "fifteen" because
the latter used his hand while the
king used the racket. Shakespeare
in his Henry V refers to tennis in
these lines:
When we have matched our rackets to
. these balls
We will, in France, by God's grace, play

40-Pound Salmon Hooked.
OREGON CITT. Or., April 11.
(Special.) A fishing party composed
of Dr. Coffin of Portland, Mrs. Ann
Howard and Howard Mass had ex
cellent luck here Sunday morning.
Dr. Coffin hooked a 40-pound salmon
with lltrht tackle and it took him
just one hour and five minutes to
land the fish. Mrs. Howard had two
strikes but was unable to land the
fish. The salmon run was reported
to be at Oak Grove this morning, and
the fish are expected to be in these
waters by tomorrow noon.
Coast History Quite Modern.
That is something of the early his
tory of tennis, but on the Pacific
coast we can really only date our
first important connection with the
game back to 1889. Tennis, of
course, was played many years prior
to that, and If we could find such
data, it would probably show that
in some form or other it was played
ir. the days of Lewis and Clark and
in the days of the 49ers of California.
There Is plenty of record of tennis
in California in the '70s, but it was
not until later that the game took
on public prominence.
In 1889 the first invasion of this
coast was made by an eastern team

Sumner Hardy, now president of

prime and won their matches at that
time. Since then the game has gone

in unique position among the na
tions of the world in the game the
Romans handed down to us.

says the Good Judge
A man can get a heap more
satisfaction from a small chew
of this class of tobacco, than
he ever could get from a big
chew of the old kind.
He finds it costs less, too. The
good tobacco taste lasts so

to have a fresh chew nearly
as often.
