Eickard, boxing promoter, charg'ng
him with rape in the second degree,
assault in the second . degree and
abducting two 15-year-old girls
Alice Ruck and Sarah Shoenfeld.
Twenty minutes later the man who
had staged the Dempsey-Carpentier
fight and other big bouts appeared
et the criminal courts building with
his lawyers and pleaded not guilty.
The district attorney's office an
nounced that it would be content
with $10,000 ball furnished, when
Eickard was arraigned In magis
trate's court last Saturday on a com
plaint preferred by the Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Children.
Resignation Is Denied.
Before leaving the courtroom.'
Eickard denied reports current dur
ing the day that he had resigned as
president of the Madison Square
Garden corporation and that John
Kingling, circus man, would succeed
him.
Eickard appeared free from worry
when he appeared before Justice
Wasservogel. He listened attentively
while his counsel asked and obtained
a week in which to study the papers
In the case and to prepare any mo
tions he might care to make.
Hickard declined to discuss the
case, which grew out of alleged
attacks made on the girls, both in
the famous tower of Madison Square
Garden the home of Stanford
White's room of mirrors that figured
In the Thaw case and in an apart
ment on West Forty-seventh street.
The case had been before the grand
jury for nearly a week. In the event
of a verdict of guilty, a sentence of
ten years could be imposed for any
one of the three offenses charged.
Rickard Known World Over.
Eickard is known the world over.

the boxing game, he roamed through
Alaska and the Texas panhandle, the
old' world and the new. Part owner
of the world's largest ranch 4,000,
000 acres located in Paraguay, he
has engaged ih all kinds of promo
tion enterprises.
When he took possession of Madi

DEAL TO BRING KENWORTHY
TO PORTLAND SEEMS LIKELY
Trade of Krug to Seattle for Duke May Be Outcome of Conference
Between Klepper and Boldt and Kenny. .
BY L. H. GREGORY.
DON'T be surprised at news from
Seattle in the next few days'
that Bill Klepper of Portland
and Jim Boldt of Seattle have fixed
up a trade of Marty Krug for Bill
Kenworthy.
Something like that is In the air.
First, Kenworthy reached Seattle
early In. the week from the east and
had a talk- with Jim Boldt. Then
long-distance got busy with Portland
and suddenly Klepper discovered that
he had an urgent engagement in
Seattle. He departed so hurriedly
Wednesday night to keep it that he
almost missed his train.
Boldt, 'Kenworthy and Klepper all
were in conference in Seattle yester
day. That makes It a cinch, that
something is in the air,, for, despite
his appointment of Tom Turner as
the Portland manager, Klepper's heart
has continued to yearn for Kenny.
On top of that Kenny has not yet
signed a contract with Seattle, nor
been offered one which makes it
pretty plain that Seattle intends in
any case to dispose of him. '
Perhaps the trade will not go
through, but the indications decidedly.
afe that it will. When Boldt, Klep
per and Kenworthy all three sit down
at the same table something is doing
besides poker.
. .
Suppose Iron Duke Kenny does
come here for Krug, what then? Who
ifculd be the Portland manager
then? What of Tom Turner and his
managerial status. 1
It would be rather embarrassing,
wouldn't it, for Turner to manage a
club the second baseman of which had
been slated as manager before he
ever was considered, the change be
ing made only because the original
deal fell through. Kenny Is a good
fellow and no trouble maker, but
e'ven If he never made one move 'all
season to bring that point home.
Turner's position would be no less
embarrassing the fans would attend
to reminding him about Kenny when
ever any bit of Turner strategy didn't
please them.
Our guess it's nothing more is
that if Krug is traded for Kenworthy,
then Kenny will become the Portland
manager as he originally was sup
posed to be and Turner will revert to
his earlier status, that of scout for
the club. . .
George Stalllngs, who now owns
the Rochester club of the Interna
tional league, has something new to
suggest as a solution for the row
over the draft.
"My view of it Is that the three big
AA leagues the International, Pacific
Coast and American association
might find It. to, their advantage tp
accept the draft," Stallings is quoted,
"provided the majors will give them,
first, the right to draft all down the
line following the major leagues
drafting period, and, second, that the
major leagues agree, hereafter, to
sign no free agents. Whether the
draft price is made $7500 or $5000 Is
of small .concern. The majors -have
simply tried to befog the no-free-agent
issue by increasing the draft
price from $5000 to $7500, which real
ly amounts to nothing.
"When the majors come forward
and say they will sign no free agents
they have taken a long step toward
the eventual acceptance'of the draft.
But that, , to my mind, is the first
requisite and by far the most impor
tant." Seattle has decided not to take Jim
Shaw from Washington after all, and
the big pitcher has been turned back.
It wasn't the stories about Shaw's
knee that influenced this action, but
Shaw's reticence about signing for
any reasonanie sum. Bad knee or
good one, Jim wanted a major lea
guer's pay. After several weeks of
negotiation Walter McCredie called it
off and told Shaw to stay with Wash
ington. However, McCredie doesn't figure
that he will be at all helpless for
pitchers without Shaw. Besides Vean
Gregg, who used to be worth half a
dozen Shaw he will have Fisher,
from Reading of the International
league; Finneran, from Newark of the
International and formerly with Ver
non; Berger, from Joplin of the West
ern league; Pete Dailey, with Seattle
last year; Jacobs, the Coast league's
star hurler in 1921; Hunky Schorr and
Harry Gardner.' And he has one other
bet, a big young right-hander named
Kelly. This boy is a brother . of
George Kelly, the New York Giants'
first-sacker, and has been under Mc
Graw's wing for a couple of seasons.
All these pitcherg have accepted
terms except the three hold-outs, Ja
cobs, Gardner and Schorr. Big Harry
Gardner's case of hold-out fever
shouldn't be taken too seriously he
always has it' at this time of year.
If he signed up without growling and
moaning and singing his song of woe
his contract wouldn't be legal. Prob

ably on the appointed day his name
will be at the foot of a contract, as
usual.
.
We quote a letter from Charles E.
Williams, who seems to keep in a
good deal closer touch with the rec
ord books than we do:
"I noticed in The Oergonian re
cently where Basanta Singh, Hindu
wrestler, makes the statement that
India has heavyweight wrestlers that
are capable of defeating our best
heavyweights. Perhaps the following
may be of interest to wrestling fans:
"In 1920 Jatrinda Charo Goho, bet
ter known to the wrestling world as
Goho Gobar, came to America billed
as the heavyweight champion wres
tler of India, said tp be better than
Gammaar Guluhum. He is a fine
physical specimen, but that seems to
let him out as a wrestler. My rec
ords show he has failed to win a sin
gle match in America and only one
fall.
"His first match was in New York
city January 1, 1921, with Tom
Draack of Holland, 175-pounder,
Draack winning.
"His second match was in San
Francisco with Strangler Lewis, Lewis
winning.
"His third match Was in Wichita,
Kan., October 8. -1921. with the
Strangler, Lewis again winning.
His fourth match was in Kansas
City November 21, with Joe Steoher,
Stecher winning.
"His fifth match was In Wichita
with Dick Daviscourt, Daviscourt
winning.
"His sixth match was in Indian
apolis December 1 with Zbyszko,
Zbyszko winning.
"His seventh match was In Pratt,
Kan., with Daviscourt, Daviscourt
again winning.
. "So much v for India's heavyweight
champion wrestler and wrestlers."
Can't say about Goho Gobar, but
as for Mr. Williams he wins.
WHITMAN TO PLAY UTAH
MISSIONARY GRID TEAM
. TAKE LONG TRIP.
TO
University of Nevada Contest Also
Booked to Be Staged at Reno
This Autumn.
WHITMAN COLLEGE, Walla Walla,
Wash., Feb. 16. (Special.) An
nouncement that Whitman has closed
a contract with the University of
Utah, calling for two grid games
with Utah, one next fall at Salt Lake
City November 18, and a second at
Whitman In 1923, was made Wednes
day by Coach Borleske.
With this Utah game, the Mission
aries now have two inter-sectional
games billed for next fall, one hav
ing allready been scheduled with the
University of Nevada at Reno this
season, with a return game at Whit
man in 1923.
With the billing of these two
games. Whitman now probably has
the best trip for her team of any
college on the coast. The Mission
aries will go to Reno by way of San
Francisco, and play a Salt Lake the
following Saturday, stopping at Reno
for the Nevada game Armistice day,
November 11. They then play Utah
a week later, November 18, arriving
in Walla walla in time to play the
University of Montana Thanksgiving
day, November 25.
The Utah game has necessitated
changing the date of the College of
Idaho game at Caldwell from Novem
ber 4. This game now probably will
be played October 14, three weeks
earlier.
Whitman's 1922 football schedule
as now completed is as follows:
October 7 Idaho at Whitman.
October 14 College of Idaho at Cald
well. October 21 Oregon at Pendleton.
November 4 Willamette university at
Whitman.
November 11 Nevada at Reno.
November 18 Utah at Salt Lake.
November 35 Montana at Whitman.

MIXED GO RECALLS
J1U JITSU TELE
Japanese and Boxer Oppo
nents Here in ,1910.
BOUT STOPPED BY POLICE
Engagement Tonight Between Hin
du and Roberts Promoted
Under Different Rules. .
While the mixed bout between
Eddie Richards, middleweight boxer,
and Basanta Singh, Hindu wrestler,
one of the features of tne smoker at
Milwaukie tonight, will De an unique
athletic- contest,- it will not be the
first similar stunt tried here.
Back in 1910 Jockey Bennett, who
was going great as a bantamweight
boxer in those days, went on against
Young Togo, a Japanese jiu Jitsu
expert, though under -somewhat dif
ferent, circumstances- than those
which govern the match at Milwau
kie tonight. They were to go 20
minute rounds to a finish, but after
the first 19 V minutes of the first
round the police stopped it, as the
contest had become too brutal..
Account of Boot Quoted.
The followinz account of
th(
Bennett-Togo rpughhouse taken from
The Oregonian'of Saturday, June 25,
1910, gives a good idea of what the
jamboree was like:
"Jiu jitsu may be employed more
effectively on an opponent than the
American style of boxing, but Young
Togo,- the Japanese exponent of the
art, failed to demonstrate it when
pitted against Jockey Bennett, the
bantamweight boxer, at Merrill's
hall last night. At any rate, the
boxer had all the better of the argu
ment with the Jap. The pitting of
Bennett against Togo proved a sort
of roughhouse engagement and was
stopped by the police. This was due
to the failure of 'Buttinski" Freed
man, who acted as referee through
some unknown influence,, to under
stand the rules.
"Freedman permitted Bennett to
slug the Jap when the latter was
flat on his back. This method did
not appeal to the police present,
though Togo made no complaint.
Neither did he show any signs of
being injured. All the time that
Bennett, struggling to break the
Jap's hold on the loose Jiu Jitsu
jacket the boxer, was compelled to
wear, hit Togo repeatedly, the wily
llttio nrinntal maintained his srriD and
merely smiled at the blows the boxer
directed at him.
Police Stop Bout.
"When the two were on their feet
it was all Bennett's way, though the
Jap covered up in a most puzzling
manner, and every now and again he
made a dive for Bennett and secur
ing some queer hold, succeeded in
pulling Bennet to the mat on top of
him. This was followed by Bennett
doing his utmost to make ' the Jap
loosen his hold, and the police de
cided to stop it.
"If last night's display of the two
methods is any criterion, that sort of
game will not prove popular, for the
boxer has no chance unless he hits
the other fellow when he is down,
and the only chance the jiu Jitsu
man has is to lie on his back and
work the other fellow."
There is not much chance of to
night's engagement between Richards
and Singh at Milwaukie ending as
did the contest in 1910. In the first
place there will be no hitting when
the two men are on the floor. Then
the two athletes are going only six
three-minute rounds. Singh will
follow the catch-as-catch-can style of
wrestling which differs considerably
from the jiu jitsu method.
The rest -of the card at Milwaukie
tonight Is composed of straight box
ing matches. Battling Kid Savage
of Los Angeles and Floyd Johnson,
Oakland heavyweight, are down for
the ten-round main event. Jimmy
West and Battling Ortega, both of
Oakland, meet in the six-round
semi-windup.
Then there is the six-round mixed
bout between Singh and Richards and
two four-round boxing bouts featur
ing Clare Bromeo and Frankie
Ritchie In one and Young Britton
and Jess Davis In the other.

COLLEGES OF STATE
TO PLAN GUM
L
Representatives to Meet in
Portland Tomorrow.
RELAY EVENTS BOOKED
Tentative Bates for First Annual
Games- to Be Held In Oregon
Are April 14 and 15.
Devils of the first annual Oregon
state relay carnival, to be held In
Eugene under auspices of the Uni
versity of Oregon, will be worked out
at a meeting in Portland tomorrow of
representatives of all the institutions
of higher education in' the state.
The tentative dates set for the
event are April 14 and 15: The meet
will be patterned generally after the
famous Penn relay games, held an
nually by the University of Pennsyl
vania at Franklin field, Philadelphia.
In these games 600 colleges from all
parts of the United States partici
pated last year.
Only one other annual relay event
of consequence is staged on the
Pacific coast at present. That is the
relay carnival Instituted by the Uni
versity of Washington several years
ago. This meet is open to any college
in the world. The Washington meet
this year will be held on April 21 and
22, so it would not Interfere with the
projected Oregon relay.
Events Are Popular.
Relay carnivals are now held .all
over the United States each year and
are attended by as great crowds as
attend the regular track and field
meets. In many big meets the mile
relay, the last event" on the pro
gramme, has decided the meet.
The smaller colleges in Oregon can
not afford to send teams to Seattle
foT the western relay carnival there,
but a"ll can easily enter a full quota
in the all - state carnival at Eugene.
Colleges that will be eligible include
Oregon Agricultural college. Uni
versity of Oregon, Willamette uni
versity, Reed college, Pacific uni
versity, Linfield college. Pacific col
lege, Albany college. North Pacific
college and the Chemawa Indian
school. ',
No definite working plan for the
meet has been drawn yet by Bill Hay
ward, Oregon track coach, whose idea
the meet is, and who will direct the
event. He will leave that to the col
lege representatives who gather here
tomorrow.
Class If icatlon to Be Made.
One of the Important things to
be determined Is classification. Hay-
ward figu-res that some of the small
er colleges would not care to com
pete against the larger institutions
where there would be little chance of
scoring a victory. For this reason,
some classification will be necessary.
With the new $10,000 cinder track
on Hayward field ready for action,
everything is set for the meet so far
as Oregon is concerned. It has long
been Hayward's desire to hold such
an event' annually. His idea seems
to have met favor with'the other Ore
gon colleges.
The programme will Include a 400-
yard event, an 880-yard relay, a mile
relay, two-mile relay and a four-mile
relay. These events will give men
in every distance a chance. The dash
men can stretch their muscles in the
400 and 880-yard relays, the 440-yard
men can do their stuff in the mile
relay, the half-milers come into their
own In the two-mile relay, and the
rollers In the four-mile event.
BOY SCOUTS TO HAVE OAY
FEATURE ADDED TO SPORTS-
x MEN'S SHOW.
Event to Be Afternoon of Feb. 23
With Specia) Programme
to Entertain Lads.
A Boy Scout day will be an added
feature of the sportsmen's show at
the auditorium, February 22, 23 and
24. The Boy Scout day will be the
afternoon of February 22, with some
special features for' the entertain
ment and instruction of the Scouts.
Each night at 8 o'clock, expert
tournament casters of the Multnomah
anglers' club will give demontsrations
in fly and bait casting. At the same
time two or three fly casting events
for novices only will be put on. The
winners will receive merchandise
prizes.
Demonstrations of fly tieing and
rod building will take place, also.
Expert fly tiers will make up the
favorite patterns of double winged
dry flies, and will be prepared to
make up any freak patterns called
for. An expert rod maker will show

KERNS TO PLAY PENINSULA
Game May Settle Soccer Champion
ships of League.
The Kerns and Peninsula teams of
the Portland Soccer football league
will, play Sunday afternoon at Co
lumbia park in a game that may
decide the championship of the
league. Neither team has lost a
league game this season. One other
meeting resulted in a tie.
As Kerns has played more tie
games this season than Peninsula
the team has not as many points in
the team standings as Peninsula and
for that reason a victory for Kerns
Sunday will place it in a tie for the
league championship. On the other
hand, if Peninsula can defeat Kerns,
the Peninsula team will practically
clinch the championship.
The , Kerns-Peninsula game will
start at 12:30 o'clock and will be fol
lowed by a game between the
Koneyman and Cameron teams. They
are tied for the cellar championship
of the league.
