Jefferson high school not only de
feated Franklin high, but eliminated
It from all chance at the Portland
public school league championship, in
a rip-snorting game of basketball
yesterday afternoon that went tivo
overtime periods before Jefferson
pulled out in the lead, 25 to 21. The
game, played in the Washington high
gym, was the most spectacular and
sensational so far played In the high
Bchool league.
Anderson and Hutchinson put the
pa me on ice between them for Jef
ferson, when each shot a Held basket
In the secpnd overtime period, after
Eroughton for Jefferson had tied the
Bcore with another sensational flip.
Neither team scored in the first over
time period, the score at the end of
the second half being 19 to 19.
Franklin Take Lead.
Franklin Jumped into the lead at
the start, when Hobson and Thomas
threw a basket each, Jefferson's first
score resulted from a converted foul
by Broughton. In the first ten min
utes of piay the Quakers lead, 8 to 3,
but Jefferson braced and baskets by
Eroughton, Anderson and Mimnaugh
and a converted foul by Broughton
put the Democrats ahead at the end
of the first half, 10 to 9.
Franklin again took the lead early
in the second half, when Thomas shot
a basket'. Then the two teams see
sawed back and forth in thrilling
rallies. At one time In this period
Jefferson had the lead, 15 to 13, only
to lose it when Slade, who replaced
Hobson, shot two baskets within one
minute.
Franklin tied the score just 20 sec
onds before regular time was called
at the end of- the second half when
Slade converted a foul. Both teams,
made several changes in the lineups
for the first over-time period but to
no avail at.d when the time was up
the score remained 19 a..
Chances Are Taken.
In the second over-time period
players on both teams took chances
on long shots. Scallon placed Franklin
ahead at the beginning of this second
period with a sensational shot from
the right-center of the floor. Brough
ton immediately tied for Jefferson
with a basket from the center of the
floor, and then eJfferson put the game
on ice.
Captain Hutchinson of Jefferson, al
though the smallest regular of the
two teams, was easily the outstanding
atar. He guarded Scallon so closely
that the Franklin player annexed only
two baskets.
The team work on both fives was
excellent and the playing of the four
guards was noteworthy. Broughton
converted five out of six fouls and
made three baskets for a total of 11
points. -For Franklin, Slade converted
one foul out of one attempt and Hob
son two out of four. The game was
the cleanest played thus far and only
a few personals were caliea.
Lincoln and James John play today
at 3:15 o'clock in the Washington
high gym. The lineups yesterday:
Jefferson (25). Franklin (21).

PUT BASEBALL, FEVER IN AIR
Stories About Suds Being Physical Wreck, Half-blind and Tottering,
Belied by Appearance of Clear-eyed Young Pitcher.
BY L. H. GREGORY.
WELLi, mates, the baseball sea
son is just around the corner.
Yesterday's weather started the
fever and then, to aid and abet It,
who should come to town but Suds
Sutherland, direct froni Detroit, his
good right arm a-tingle to be at
training camp and heaving 'em across
the plate.
And he looked like the same old
Suds that he used to when he led the
Coast league pitchers in 1920. All
these stories about his being a physi
cal wreck, half blind, tottering, hard
ly able to hobble or lift his arm were
belied by the appearance of this
clear-eyed young fellow, who said he
felt just as good as at any time in
his life, and looked it. . Suds never
was a Hercules in build, but he
weighs 170 pounds, which ought to
dispose of the " wasted - skeleton "
yarn.
Not only Is Suds back to pitch for
Portland again, but he says he is back
to stay and that he intends to end
his pitching days in the Pacific Coast
league.
"I've had my little fling iir the big
leagues," he asserted with vehemence,
"and it's never again for me. Once
was enough. I wouldn't go back
there again If I were to become the
best pitcher in the world. Hereafter
the good old Pacific coast, where the
real white 'folks live, will be my per
manent territory and I never want to
see the country again east of the
Rocky Mountains.
Suds announces he will pitch his
head off for Portland this season, and
he thinks he will have a fine year.
He had his fast ball' last season until
Walter Johnson beaned him on the
pitching arm in Junethe - real old
fast ball that he had when he first
went into baseball and he says he
feels In his bones that he will have
It this season, too.
"But - even if - I don't, I should
worry," declared Suds. "I got my fill
of fast-ball pitching in the big
leagues, I'll say I did. That's all the
managers up there seem to know
fast ball, fast ball, fast ball. They
all want you to use a fast ball. The
batters lay back and maul it, but that
doesn't make any difference. They're
fast-ball crazy. .
"In eight games I pitched for De
troit, only two hits were made off my
curve ball, and about the same num
ber off my slow one, all the others
being off the fast one, and yet the
management Insisted and demanded
that I use a fast ball. Sometimes I
wonder why they call it the 'big
league.'
Suds has some interesting stories
about his experiences in the big brush
and the idiosyncracies of this man
ager and that one. About the fun
niest he tells is how Ty Cobb wouldn't
ltt him pitch to the Detroit batters in
practice because he said that Suds'
slow ball put the hitters "off their
stride."
"No, sir," said Suds, "after I had
pitched to the batters a tew times
they were all squawking about my
slow ball and Cobb couldn't hit it
himself, so finally he told me that I
couldn't pitch any more In batting
practice. I asked him if he didn't
want the batters to have some prac
tice ,on slow balls, and he said no,
that it put them off their stride. The
only man on the team who wanted
me to pitch to him was Bobby Veach,
so I used to go over in a corner of
the field and pitch curves and slow
ones at him by the hour.
'The upshot of it was that Veach
was the only man on the club who
could hit a slow ball. After he had
practiced against me a while he
would go up in a game and just mur
der slow-ball pitching. But that
didn't make any difference, wasn't
allowed to pitch to batters.
"What the batters wanted was
someone to Are them fast and straight
down the alley so they could bust
two or three and feel that they were
primed to hit the onion out of the
lot If the opposing pitcher in the
game also pitched them fast and
straight down the alley." .
Another big-league stunt that
was new to Suds was the managerial
custom of selecting pitchers on
"hunches." Suds says Cobb worked
his hunch system with great en
thusiasm. "At least four times when I was
supposed to pitch a game and was
nicely warmed up and feeling just
right," said Suds, "Cobb would glance
at the bench, get a hunch on some
other pitcher, and give him the balL
Far be it from me to say anything
against the 'hunch system.' though I
must admit it was an entirely new
baseball wrinkle to me. But then I
was only a busher from the coast
"When I was allowed to pitch my
own way, the big league batters were
easier for me than those in the Coast
league, and that isn't in any way a
boast. The reason is that they are
all fast ball hitters. They break their
backs at curve ball pitching, many of
them, or slow balls, yet it's the sys
tem to have the pitchers keep right
on shoving fast ones down the alley.
"Cobb gave us pitchers orders that
we must always lay the first ball
dead over the plate and that it must
be a fast one, never a curve or a sdow
ball. He said that if a pitcher curved
the first one or threw a slow one,
and it wasn't over, that Dut him in
the hole,, so the thing to do was to
put the batter in the hole by always
making the first ball a fast one dead
over. We weren't allowed to throw
a slow ball or a curve unless we had
the batter in the hole, say with two
strikes on him.
'That's why I say that when I
could pitch as I wanted to, those bat
ters were easy enough, for they
weren't accustomed to curve ball
pitching and a curve or slow ball
pitcher could make suckers of .them."
Sutherland asserts that Jimmy Mld-
dleton.'one of the pitchers who will
come here from Detroit, is a curve
ball hurler and a mighty good one.
He wasn't at his best under the
pitching rules in vogue, but Suds
thinks he will be a big winner in the
Coast league.
Likewise he declares that Joe Sar
gent, , the third Backer coming from
Detroit, is a great ball player and a
star at third. Sargent didn't iave
much chance to show . his wares in
that position with the Tigers, for
when he was played at all it gen
erally was at second or short, where
he was absolutely lost.
Play him regularly at his position.
which is third base," said Suds, "and
he will be a whale of a ball player.
He was considered the best third
sacker in the International league
when he played with Buffalo before
coming to Detroit." ,,
Suds resilly was hit on the head
and laid out near the end of last sea
son when he was playing independent
ball, as dispatches at the time saM,
but he declares that his condition
never was half as serious as it was
painted.
'I was at bat in tht fifth or sixth
inning," explained Suds. "The oppos
ing pitcher was a big, strong busher,
wild as a hawk and using the emery
ball besides. There was a clump of
trees back of center field that made
the ball hard to follow. Well, h.t
pitched me one that I lost sight of
against that background. It was a
fast one coming in at me, and I drew
my head back, but he had used a file
on the ball and It took an emery
hop at the plate of about two feet.
That ball caught me In the temple
and knocked me flat.
"I got up and a couple of doctors
looked me over and told me I'd better
go home" and to bed. Like a fool, I
pooh-poohed the idea, pitched the rest
of the game and won It, and batted
twice more and made a hit each time.
But when I was taking my shower
after the game I keeled over.
"That crack on the temple caused
concussion of the brain and blood
clots and about everything elso. For
three days I was semi-panalyied on
one side and couldn't see out of my
left eye. That was due, of course, to
the blood clots. Then that all cleared
away and ten days after I was hit 1
pitched another game, the last one of
the season. The Injury has not
bothered me in the least since.
"I had an ulcerated tooth pulled,
too, and since then I have been feel
ing better generally. The dentist
said it had been ulcerated probably
for years. I'm going to have a couple
more teeth yajiked and my mouth put
in tip-top condition, and I believe 1
will be In better shape than I ever
have been." ,
After he was blacklisted last sum
mer by Judge Landis for playing in
a game against a pitcher on the
ineligible list and incidentally Suds
says he had no idea that the pitcher
was ineligible until the game was
almost over Suds pitched Independ
ent ball, and won 20 out of 25 games.
Last winter he went to work in the.
Hupmoblle factory as a tester of
brakes.
He brought wKh him to try out
with the Portland club a young
pitcher named George. Banks, who;
Suds says, is a cinch to make the
Portland pitching staff. Banks is a
husky 180-pounder, 21 years old, 5
feet 11 inches tall, who flings right
handed. He won 30 out of 34 games
pitched for independent clubs around
Detroit, 15 of his victories coming in
succession.
Sutherland and Banks will lead the
procession of Portland ballplayers
south. They start tomorrow for a
hot springs near San Jacinto, Cal., for
a week's work before the- main

BASEBALL SCHEDULE IS MOST
PRETENTIOUS IX YEARS.
Schedule to Open Against Oregon
and Corvallis, and Includes (
21 Games in 33 Days.
WHITMAN COLLEGE, Walla Walla,
Wash., Feb. 20. (Special.) The most
ambitious baseball schedule of a Whit
man team in years has been lined up
for the coming spring. The Whitman
nine will play 21 games . In 33 days.
Eleven of the contests will be played
at home, with the other ten on trips
into Oregon, Idaho, and throueh
Washington.
The Whitman schedule will open
April 2S-29 against the University
of Oregon at Whitman. Two days
later the Oregon Aggies will oDnose
Whitman at Walla Walla'in a game
May 1.
Although no official call has yet
been issued, several candidates are
out tossing the ball around. The
weather Is yet too uncertain and the
ground too wet for turnouts, and
Coach Borleske is occupied with the
basketball hoppers. Knudson, Sher
wood and Gloomy McDowell will be
the mainstay of the pitching staff;
Dad Walther, catcher: Sid Rich, third:
Dean, second; Raaberg, short; Com
rada, Matsuno, Wilsey and Ingraham,
outfielders, are other veterans who
will be on deck. The loss of Garver.
Reynolds, T. Rich and Tate will be
felt.
The refurn of Coffee has settled the
full sack question. The weak spot of
the nine seems to be the pitching
staff. With 21 games billed In a
month, Borleske is sadly in need of
mound men. The Whitman schedule
follows:
April 29-30 Oregon at Whitman.
May 1 Oregon Aggies at Whitman.
May 6-8 Idaho at Whitman.
May '10-11 Idaho at Moscow.
May 12-13 Washington State at P.ull

Rival Lightweights Clash Tomor
row Night in 1 0-Round Main
Event at the Armory.
The railbirds who have oeen keep
ing close tab on the daily training
sessions of Bobby Harper and Joe
Welling, the rival lightweight battlers
who clash in the ten-round main
event of tomorrow night's boxing
card at the armory, concede the
Seattle boy an excellent chance with
Welling.
Welling Is a polished ring veteran
and still a serious contender, but
Harper is a fast, coming youngster,
who will not be denied. Harper has
been showing more stuff in the gym
nasium In the last week than at any
time he has worked out for a fight
here. Bobby has always depended
jnore or less on fighting at close
Quarters to put him over. Now he
seems to have developed a different
style of left-hand attack that is im
possible to avoid. He is becoming a
long range fighter as well as an ln
fighter. Harper Is quick to learn and has
a good fighting head. When Eddie
Shannon beat him in Seattle several
years ago by using a ripping upper
cut delivered at close quarters.

Hunt club chase at Garden
Home, Wednesday morning, 11
o'clock.
Harper at once learned how to use
the selfsame blow and has been
using it ever since with effect.
Harper really does- it better than
Shannon. The latter's punch re
sembles a foul blow with the heel
of the glove half the time, but
Harper's damaging uppercut is an
absolutely clean punch and has never
been questioned.
Harper has picked up and stored
away in his 'head the best points of
all the boys he has fought or worked
with In the gym. When he faces
Welling the fans' will see the best
northwest lightweight that has bat
tled an eastern topnotcher since
Johnny O'Leary fought around Se
attle. Welling is a very deceptive fighter.
Like Harper he has no bulging
muscles, 44-inch chest, exceptionally
broad -shoulders, or any of the usual
marks of a fighter. His best punches
are delivered coming in or going out
of a clinch. At long range Welling
is better than the average boxer, but
his most telling punches are short
rips to the body or head. The
eastern star is in great condition,
having been here almost a month
working for the fight. The bout will
be a real test of Harper's ability.
All Macke, the boy whose rapid
rise in local fistic ranks has been
the talk of the year, will make his
first start since his ten-round victory
over Freddie Williams, in the semi
final bout tomorrow night against
Mike De Pinto. Mike is another
youngster who Is making a bid for
featherweight honors. The better the
boy he fights the .better De Pinto
seems to go. In Macke he is biting
off a husky chunk but seems confi
