Tennis legislation, which will revo
itlonize the great outdoor court
ame In the Pacific northwest, was
assea by the executive committee
f the Northwest Lawn Tennis asso
iatlon yesterday. The association is
ii Its first annual session here.
AValter A. Goss, sectional delegate
r the united States Lawn Tennis as-
oclatlon, said after the meeting:
The greatest steps which have
ver been taken for the good of ton-
is In. the northwest have been made
ere today. A long felt want has
ten filled and the uport has at last
enn truthmlly organised."
lirnest V. Toung of Vancouver,
'. C, secretary and treasurer of the
.orthwes-t Lawn Tennis association,
as equally enthusiastic. Mr. Young
i-clared: "I think that every rule
'lopti-di by the executive committee
III prove to the great benefit of ten
is In the great Pacific northwest,
very deta'l has been gone over and
n point of helpful legislation left
jL I look for the 1922 season to be
ne of the greatest ever experienced
l this part of the country."
Schedule Oraivn I'p.
The executive committee, composed
f Thomas W. Bailey of Spokane,
resident; Harry .S. tlray of Portland,
ice-president; Krnost V. Young of
ancouver, B. C, secretary and
-''tauter, and "Walter A. (loss. Biz
onal delegate of the United. States
i'n Tennis association, not only
iew up new governing rulos for the
irthwert association but also a
ihedule of championship tourna
lenta for the 19212 season.
Throe great questions, that of
inking: the northwestern players
ic.h year, the appointment of a cre-
ontlals committee, and that of a
inthodJ of raising finances to. send
is northwest junior chanvpion and
rthwest sectional doubles cham
on east to the national events each
far, were fully worked out.
As to the ranking system, great dls
t iafactinn -was expressed by several
ub in the northwest association last
a.r. Ill reply to the letters of dla
tlsfactlon sent to the executive com
tftee by the Taronia and Vancouver
ubs the executive committee drew
i) a letter to be sent to nil clubs In
o association, which explains the
tuntion fully, and follows:
"Protests having been received from
e Tacoma and Vancouver clubs over
e 1921 ranking, the executive com
ittee feels that It Is due our mem
re to give out certain Information
hich will clear up any dissatisfaction
id show to our members the difficul
ty encountered by this committee:
Kon-Rmldrnte Itanked.
"First II. C. Force of Seattle did
t function on the committee and
ive no response to urgent telegrams
id letters asking that he lend his aid
this Important work.
"Second Jliss Kershaw of Tacoma
4 not understand that only bona fide
sldcnts of this section should be

.lifornlana, and others who took part
the Pacific northwest play but who
'ed elsewhere.
"Third No code of rules had been
lopted by our association as to the
quired number of tournaments in
lilch a player must participate tn or
r to be eligible for rank.
"Fourth Some of the clubs were
ry dilatory In sending In a detailed
cord of their events.
"Under such circumstances the rank
ir committee was laboring under a
eat handicap and the national asso
Uion In New York wita telegraphing
r the Pacific northwest data long
fore the committee was ready to
port.
Mistakes Are Acknowledged.
"The executive committee states
inkly that in their opinion the com
ittee erred in one or two instances,
it they did the best they could under
ry trying circumstances.
"J. O. Brown of Victoria chairman
the committee, passed many sleep
xs nights trying to untangle what
iked like a hopeless complication,
e believe, therefore. It is unwise to
open the records thereby trying to
nko a. satisfactory adjustment. If
rors were made they were of minor
iportance and we believe the 'asse
rtion is indebted to this committee
r the long, hard- and faithful serv
es which It so generously rendered
id we desire at this time to offer a
arty vote of thanks for the eft'ortb
t forth."
Hanking System Outlined.
It Is hoped by the executive that
cli a complication will never again
k. place in northwest tennis cir
s and to see that such a thing dors
-t a definite ranking system was
opted at the meeting, which fol-
w s:
All club secretaries will be In
flicted to mail to the association
cretary, within seven days after the
inplction of any open tournament
city championship, three typed
pics of the full and complete scores
any such tournament. Failure to
rnish such scores' within the ap
Inted time will give the executive
mmittee the right to suspend the
Mnqtient club from enjoying the
ivileges of the association until
ch time as the required In for ma
in la furnished.
"To appoint at once a ranking com
aee. Xor tie 1222 seaaon. Instead ol
waiting until the close of the season
to make the appointment!. The com
mittee selected follows:
A. D. Norrls, Portland, chairman.
- Miss J. Kershaw. Tacoma.
K. J. H. Cardinall. Vancouver. B. C.
' "To obviate all nossibie chance of
error the report of the ranking com
mittee will be submitted to the execu
tive committee, who have power to
make any alterations, and by them be
finally handed to the association sec
retary for release."
$ Rules to (ioveri.
As a guide to the ranking commit
tee, the following ranking rules will
govern:
1. No player or team can be ranked un
Hk h-. he or they has tor have) playd
In' at leant two major or one major and
one minor tournaments. For ranking; pur-po-,
major events will be as follows:

will be any open tournament other then
the above held by a member club of this
annociat Ion, including city championshlpn.
2. All thlnsa being equal, a win in the
sectional championships, both singles and
doubles, will take preference over a win
in any other tournament.
3.' Only members in good standing; of
clubs affiliated with this association will
bo eligible for ranking, although the per
formances of members against outside en
tries may ba used aa a basis of compari
son. Credentials Committee IVamrd,
In view of the Increasing number
of entries from outside districts in
various tournaments held by member
clubs, and the numerous requests for
entertainment, or payment of living
expcnes incurred by these entries.
It has been decided by the executive
committee in order to relieve mem
ber clubs of any embarrassment, to
recommend that every member cljib
agree to abide by the decision of a
credentials committee. The committee
will decide on the character of any
outside entry and as to the advis
ability of offering entertainment to
such entry.
It Is to be understood that every
member club submitting an entry
to the credentials committee for in
vestigation, will absolutely decline to
entertain, or defray the expenses of,
any entry upon which the committee
reports unfavorably, but It Is not the
Intention of the recommendation that
a member club must entertain, or
defray the expenses of any entry
favorably reported on by the com
mittee. That question, will be left
for every club to decide.
The following tennis playera were
selected by the executive committee
to act on the oredential committee:
For all entries from the United
States. S. L. Russell of Seattle, W. A.
Ooss of Portland and Tom w. Bailey
of Spokane.
For all entries from Canada, B. A.
Tlhodes of Vancouver. E. V. Toung of
N'orth Vancouver and H. G. Garrett of
Victoria.
Financial Decision Reached.
The executive committee came to
a final decision as follows on financ
ing: By unanimous vote the old
system of asking the club holding
the junior championship tournament
to meet the necessary expense of
sending the junior champion east
was discontinued. In lieu of such an
arrangement a selected list of 300
men throughout the Pacific north
west will be asked to contribute $1
a year for a period of five years,
This fund will be used for the east
ern trip of the junior champion.
The men will be selected from
various cities in the Pacific north
west and the quotas for each city
follow Portland 75. Seattle 7a, Van
couver. B. C, f0; Victoria, B. C, 25;
Tacoma 60, Spokane 25. Salem 5,
Potlatch 5 and North. Vancouver,
B. C. 6.
It was also decided that there
would be no further assessment
made as in the past to cover the
necessary living expense of the sec
tinnal doubles team. And it has been
further decided that the club hold
Ins the northwest sectional doubles
championship would be asked to pay
the J200 necessary to cover the liv
ing expenses of the doubles cham
pions in the east.
WnNhhurn to Vole Proxy.
The Northwest Tennis association
will authorize Watson M. Washburn
of Washington. D. C., to vote its
proxy of 1775 votes at the annual
meeting of the United States Lawn
Tennis association in New York Feb
ruary 4. It was also decided that an
effort would be made again to ask
some prominent eastern player to
take part in all of the leading Pacific
northwest tournaments this year, as
was done last year, by William M.
Ingraham of Providence. R. I.
The awarding of the tournament
for the 1S22 season gives the Pacific
northwest championships to Tacoma
the week of August 7. The Oregon
state championships, the biggest
annual tourney in Oregon, will be
staged here the week of July 10.
PANDER AFTER WINGED M
SOUTH PA IS KW.VY-M I'LTX O MA II
HOOP GAME WAXTKD.
Tooniey's Promise for Series of
Three Contests Averred, but
Xot One Forliieoiiiinc.
Henry Pander, manager of the
South Parkway basketball team, is
greatly wrougnt up because he has
been unable to schedule a game with
the Multnomah Amateur Athletic club
basketball team. Pander says that
Manager Toomey of the club promised
to play South Parkway a three-game
series this year, but to date Pander
has been unable to get Toomey to
grant South Parkway even one game.
Tander says:
"Last year 1 managed to schedule
a game with the Multnomah club
team after a good deal of persuasion.
We did not win the game but gave
the club boys a good fight and the
contest drew the biggest crowd of the
soason. At the time we met the club
it had won only three games while we
had a clean slate. After the game
Toomey promised to play my team a
three-game series this year. I -have
been trying to arrange such a series
hut have, been unable to get a reply
to my letters. If Multnomah club
doesn't want to play South Parkway a
three-game series let it be a one
game proposition to settle the ques
tion of city amateur supremacy, the
gam to be played on a neutral floor.
I'erhans Coach Pewey's team might
beat South Parkway but it would at
least be a real game."

Northwest conference basketball
will get into full swins this week
with the University of Idaho and
Washington State college quintets
slated to make their debuts. All of
the other members of the confer
ence have played two games or more
to date.
At present the leadership of the
league Is deadlocked between the Ore
gon Aggies and Washington, each
having won two games and lost
none. Washington and th-e Aggies
are down for a two-game series at
Corvallls, while Idaho will face
Washington state in a brace of games
one at Moscow and one at Pullman.
The series bet-ween Washington
and the Oregon Aggies will be
watched closely as th-e two quintets
appear to be the strongest in the
northwest. Washington -walloped
Oregon twice last week by lopsided
scores, winning the first, score 76 to
1!, and the second, 4S to 19. The
Aggies In turn walloped. Whitman, 36
to 18, and 50 to 18.
Pullman Tarns Tables.
As Whitman defeated Oregon In a
two-game series last week. 31 to 22,
and 24 to 15, both Washington and
the Aggies seem evenly matched.
Washington State and Idaho have not
been seen in action in a conference
game.
Washington State, after losing
most of its preseason games, turned
the tables last Monday and defeated
the Walla Walla American Legion
quintet, 35 to 22. On Thursday It de
feated'Gonzaga, 31 to 19.
Idaho has not gained any sensa
tional preseason victories, but from
Indications of preseason results seems
a fairly balanced quintet, although
not as strong offensively as either
the Aggies or Washington. Idaho
will meet its first real test tonight.
when it tackles the University, of
Oregon quintet at Eugene in Th
first of a two-game series. Friday
and Saturday Idaho will meet Wash
ington State in a two-game series
These games will open the Cougars'
schedule in the Pacific coast and
northwest conferences.
The showing of the I nlversity of
Oregon quintet was disappointing; to
its many followers. After losing
two-game series to Whitman, the
Eugene men made a miserable show
ng against Washington. At present
Oregon Is lodged in the cellar with
little hope of getting out. Oregon
will play four games this week two
against Idaho and a two-game series
against Washington, the first game
to be played Wednesday.
'Willamette Win and Loses.
Willamette has played two games
to date, winning one and losing one
In its two-game series with Whitman
last week, the Salem institution won
the first contest, 28 to 21, but lost the
second, 20 to 24. The games were
played at Salem. The only games
scheduled for Willamette this week
are with the University of Idaho.
Whitman has played six games
since the conference season opened,
winning three and losing three. It
won a two-game series from Oregon,
broke even in its two-game series
with Willamette, and lost two games
to the Aggies. Whitman has no games
scheduled for this week with con
ference teams.
Stanford will not open Its season in
the coast conference until January 24
when it plays Oregon at Eugene in a
two-game series. On January 27 Stan
ford will open a two-game series
against the Oregon Aggies at Cor-
v-sllla
The University of California also
will open its series up north. The
Golden Bears will play Washington
State college a two-game series at
Pullman, starting January 23. and a
two-same series against Washington
at Seattle, starting January 27.
Albany to Play Eugene.
ALBANY. Or.. Jan. IB. (Special.)

ranged to Round Out Main
Event at Milwaukle.
Harry "Wills and Sam Langford, the
two negro heavyweights who meet
in the ten-round main event at Mil
waukle tomorrow night, completed
their training yesterday. Old. Sam is
better .condition than he has been
on any previous appearance here,
while the same can be said of Wills.
W'ills trains harder in the gym than
the average fighter. His routine yes
terday consisted of 15 rounds of rope
skipping, shadow boxing, bag punch-
ng and sparring. When he finished
he was dripping perspiration but said
he was not noticeably tired. Wills is
fit for a battle and should Langford
cVcide to mix it things certainly
thould hum tomorrow night.
A fast card of preliminaries has
been arranged to round out main
events. Kddie Richards, one of the
young crop of boxers developed here
n the last year who shows promise
of ctepping into the front ranks in
his division, will box a six-round go

six rounder will feature Willie St.
Clair, the negro lightweight flash,
and Soldier Woods of Seattle. Clem
Landon. another Seattle boy, will box
Frank Ritchie of Portland In a four
round event. In addition there will
be a four-round curtain raiser.

Grid 'Star With Him.
SPOKANE. Wash.. Jan. 15. Rich
ard K. (Dick) Hanley. for two years
coach of the championship Pendle
ton high school football team, has
been offered the post of assistant
football mentor at Purdue, it was an
nounced yesterdAy.
Coach W. H. (Lone Star) Dietz, ex
football coach at Washington State
college and now head coach at Pur
due, is said to have made the offer
to Hanley.
Hanley is said to be one of the lead
ing western exponents of Dietz' style
of coaching. As a youngster he
played four years at Burlington, Wash.
He played at Bellingham Normal
a year and in 1914 he joined Coach
Johnnie Bender's string at Washing
ton State college. The next two
years he played halfback and then
quarter under Diet. He was cap

captain of Coach Welch's team.
MATIN DICKERING FOR BOUTS
Manila Representative in Portland
on Way South.
Abe Matin, Pacific coast repre
sentative of the Churchill and Tait
Olympic stadium in Manila, Is In Port
land on his way to Los Angeles,
where he expects to sign several
good boys to ship to the Philippines.
Matin has his eye on Young Brown,
lightweight; Joe Coffey, feather
weight, and Georgie Marks, bantam.
Matin already has sent Freddie
Williams, Georgie Lee and Joe
Simonich to Manila. One sure bet to
show this season in Manila is Joe
Dunn, sensational Tacoma light
weight. It was only last year that
Dunn was curtain raiser on north
west cards, but under Matin's man
agement he has developed into a main
eventer. Matin will take Dunn south
with him.
Matin Is also dickering with sev
eral eastern boxers. Johnny Buff, the
bantam champion, has been made an
offer.

TO RISK THEIR REPS
Bouts to Feature Inter-Club
Tourney Wednesday.
STENGEL FIGHTS SMITH
Carson Will Box Joe Blank and
Ed Richmond Will Stack Vp
Against Smoky Thompson.
Although the three northwest ama
teur champions, who will be fea
tured in the main events of Wednes
day night's three - cornered boxing
tournament at tne armory, will not be
risking their titles, they will lose
much of their reputation by dropping
a decision. Northwest titles are at
stake only at the annual Pacific
Northwest association tournament,
which will be staged in Spokane this
year. A champ might lose every
fight during the season, once he wins
the title at the official tournament,
and still retain his championship title
until the next spring's meeting.
However, as the class of the ama
teur talent is always entered In the
annual event, any boy with enough
stuff to win a title there is usually
good enough to hold his own against
the rest of his opponents during the
amateur boxing season.
Bird Stengel, northwest feather
weight champion; Marion Carson,
northwest lightweight champion, and
Ed Richmond, northwest welter
weight title' holder, who will risk
their reputations Wednesday night.
face what appear to be tough fights.
Stengel has lost several bouts since
last year's amateur meet, but never
by any wide margin, and in all in
stances to an out-of-town boxer.
Walter Close, the clever Spokane boy,
is the only battler to annex a verdict
over Stengel. He drew two close ones
In Spokane.
Stengel to Meet Smith.
Stengel will meet Henry Smith of
the armory Wednesday. Smith is a
tough scrapper who has had quite a
bit of experience. He formerly boxed
for the Multnomah club. If in any
kind of condition he figures to give
Bud quite an argument.
Carson has been undefeated since
he won his crown. Boxing under
the colors of the Armory Athletic
association. Carson has won prac
tically all of his bouts via the knock
out route. He doesn't look like a
fighter or box like one. But he packs
a powerful kick in either hand and
can take a lacing to get in a few
licks. It is his deceiving appear
ance that makes his opponent un
wary. Carson to Box Blank,
Carson, who weighs but 1'30 pounds,
will box Joe Blank of the BTnal
B'rith club. Blank was a sensation
in the Multnomah club gym recently
when he took on Bud Stengel and
gave the latter a terrible toe-to-toe
battle. Blank loomed up like the
real McCoy. He can punch with
either hand and doesn't know what
it means to back up. He Likes to
battle and is an apt pupil. Although
Carson is the more experienced and
an exceptionally good boy for an
amateur, the followers of the simon
pure game look for Blank to g"ive a
good account of himself.
EcJ Richmond, the third champion,
will stack up against Smoky Thomip
son. the wild and woolly armory
welterweight. Richmond is a hard
hitting plodder who stays close to
his man. never slackening his pace
Richmond went through some tough
fights last year to win his laurels.
Bloomberg to Return.
Sol Bloomberg, four or five years
ago. was the best-looking bantam
weight prospect in Portland. He will
return to the ring, 'boxing for the
B'nat B'rith club. When Sol quit
baofling he was fighting such boys
as Abe Gordon, George Brandon and
others with success. He is both
awkward and clever with the punch
of a lightweight. Sol will give away
a few pounds and box Johnny
ocnaecner or tne Multnomah club.
A likely looking boy will make his
debut in the person of Jack Richards.
Richards is a brother of Eddie Rich
ards, the hard-hitting middleweight,
who will fight the semi-windup at
Milwaukle tomorrow night. Jack
looks almost as good as his brother
but hasn't quite got the heft and
naturally not the experience. Rich
ard win meet Louis Reuter, the
tough Multnomah club laO-pounder.
Meuter Is a rooter in the ring. He
has plenty of borlng-in qualities and
every bout that he has fought has
oeen a gooa one.
Jim Head Is Find.
Jim Head, a 140-pounder Fred Ren
nick has found at the B'nal B'rith
club, is expected to cut a wide swath
in the amateur ranks by those who
nave been watching him work out.
Head is a youngster with a world of
willingness. He has set his mind on
being a fighter and is determined to
make good. His opponent will be Jim
Flynn of Multnomah club.
Ten bouts in all will be on the bill
as well as three wrestling matches
between the Multnomah Amateur
Athletic club and the North Pacific
Dental college.

VARSITY MATMEN PREPARE
FOR TUSSLE WITH. AGGIES.
Coach Barnes 'ot Overplcased
With Heavy End of Squad
and Lacks Material.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
Jan. 15. (Special.) With two defi
nite dates for the varsity wrestling
team scheduled, active work is well
under way and tryouts for the team
will take place soon, according to
Coach Barnes. The Oregon Aggie team
will meet the varsity grapplers here
on February 6, while the University
of Washington team is scheduled to
appear in a dual meet with the varsity
here on February 27.
Coach Barnes is not optimistic over
the material which is working out
with the squad so far and regrets the
lack of heavyweight men.
"I don't care whether a man knows
a thing about wrestling," said Barnes
today. "What I want is a few husky
men weighing about 200 pounds, who
are not afraid to work."
Unless some heavier weight men
turn out soon Coach Barnes will have
to send.Nygren, who is in the middle
weight class, up against the light
heavyweight class of the other Insti
tutions. Norton Wlnnard, who was a member
of the varsity team In 1919, when they
grappled with the Oregon Aggies in
the last meet, is working out with
the team. Winnard weighs about 160
and appears to be in better condition
than he was when working with the
varsity team that year. Bradley is
also showing up well In the middle
weight class. In the welterweight di
vision, Ed KIrtley is about the only
man who looks like varsity material.
The lightweight and featherweight
classes are being well taken care of.
and It will be In these weights that
the varsity team will be the strongest.
Whitcomb, Strane and Watters are
the best prospects in the lightweight
division. Captain Wegner and Kirt
are the featherweight members of the
squad. At presefit Wegner is over
weight, but he is expected to make
the weight before the meets.
Considerable interest is being taken
In wrestling this year and doughnut
competition on the mat has also been
scheduled as a part of the physical
education programme Jor the first
time in history. The doughnut
matches will begin next month and
the points made will be scored In the
final accounting when the big trophy
cup will be presented for the best all
round doughnut team entered in all
the various events.
Beautiful Drubbing Given
Navy by Oregon.
Webfooters pn Honolulu Grid Show
They Can Do Some Roughing,
Too.
BY MIKE JAY,
HONOLULU. T. H., Jan. 2 (By
Mail.) Beneath a blazing sun
and a cloudless blue sky, the Univer
sity of Oregon football team sweated
to a 35-to-0 victory over the Pearl
Harbor -navy team, champions of Ha
waii for 1921. This was Oregon's sec
ond victory, the first having been reg
istered the preceding Monday, 47 to 0,
over the University of Hawaii.
Oregon gave the navy a beautiful
drubbing and further showed the sail
ors that if anybody was going to get
rough the Webfooters could be relied
or. to show just as well as the next
fellow. Time was taken out for th-e
Oregon team only once for injury,
whereas the navy was constantly hav
ing to call for time.
The navy was never dangerous.
Twice Jt had possession of the ball
on the Oregon side, of the halfway
mark. Once this resulted from a for
ward pass and the other time from
a penalty, the referee throwing
Latham out of the game for -tripping

and penalizing Oregon half the dis
tance to the goal. . The navy never
got inside of the 30-yard line with
the ball.
"Chappy" Chapman and Spike Leslie
starred for the winners. Chapman was
the star on offensive, and Leslie on
defensive. Time and again the husky
Oregon booter broke through the
navy line and stopped plays at their
inception.
Chapman played three quarters and
then Reinhart ab"y filled his shoes
and kept up the 'jrlllant work. Chap
man starred in everything, center
bucks, off tackle plunges and end
runs. He was a -team in himself.
Oregon made one touchdown In the
first quarter, one in the second, three
in the fourth. That also gives an
Indication of how the team played. It
held Its stride for the flrs't two quar
ters, loosened up a bit in tho third
and got going In grand style again in
the fourth. The Oregonlans were
playing top-notch foorball when the
final whistle blew and seemed fresh
enough for another game. And that
despite the fact that the thermometer
registered SO degrees and the soda
water and ice cream concessions did
a big business in the crowd of 1-2,000
fans.
It was the finest exhibition of foot
ball ever seen in Hawaii and it was
played before the largest crowd that
ever saw a football game here.
The betting was extremely heavy,
for it goes. without saying that navy
men back their teams. The chief bet
was three to one that Oregon would
not make more than two touchdowns
and another favorite bet was two to
one that the navy would score. A lot
of sailors will live on soup and crack
ers for the next few months,
DUCK HoTcLOSES
XIMRODS GET FEW BIRDS OX
LAST DAY'S IIL'XT.
Cold, Clear Weather Freeies Lakes
and Causes Targets to Fly
Out of Range.
The duck hunting season closed
yesterday in district No. 1, which In
cludes all territory west of the Cas
cade mountains. Although many
nlmrods went to the lakes for their
last shoot, few birds were killed. The
day was cold and clear, and the birds
flew high, far out of the guns' reach.
Shooting was fair on some of the
larger lakes on Sauvies Island. Most
of the smaller lakes were frozen,
however, and there was little chance
of feeding the birds. The same hap
pened on Deer island.
At Wapato lake at Gaston, where
shooting has been exceptionally good
all fall, many birds were kil'led. al
though only few hunters got more
than a dozen. Although shooting, as
a whole, has been poor in the Port
land lakes all year, until the cold
snap came at Gaston, ducks were
more plentiful than ever. The heavy
rains that flooded the lakes at Linn
ton and Portland, were Just what
Wapato lake needed to fill it.
The lakes at Swan Island drew sev
eral nimrods. but few got even a
half a bag fulL Most of them re
turned before the day was over be
cause the birds were so scarce.
Several Portlanders who returned
last night from a hunting trip
through the southern part of the
state, said that duck shooting was
excellent in the yalley. From Salem
to Eugene, the lakes were packed
with teal. There were also a few
mallards. Several professors of the
Oregon Agricultural college got a
good bag near Junction City.
