Moving Mine lews CHICAGOAN AFTER HARPER Showing fa Armory Fight Will De termine "Whether He Gets Chance at Seattle Bob. Hal Clark, the Chicago battler, does not hold any medals for being: a clever boxer, but he is not bashful in boosting: his own stock as a slug ger and mixer. Portland ring- fol lowers will get a chance tomorrow night to see just how good Olark is when he meets Joe Dunn In one of the ten-round triple main events at the ' armory. Clark would like nothing better than a crack at Bobb'y Harper, but he has to make good in the eyes of the Portland boxing commission be fore he will be considered; Clark's press clippings show that- he has fought a lot of good boys and never has had anything worse than a de cision against him. With the Harper match in view, th Chicago mauler has every incentive to make good. Dunn Is no setup, how ever, and will be a real test. Dunn is In acorns now, and will arrive in Portland some tima today. Battles Promise Action. The three ten-round battles tomor row promise action and plenty of it. Every bout should bo a slugging match, with just enough boxing thrown in to make it interesting. There is not much chance of any o the three bouts going the distance. .Battling -Ortega will meet his toughest customer since he started his comeback. He tackles Joe Swain. The Battler stopped Jack Davis and Jimmy West, but there is some question whether he will drop Swain. If Swain Is right, and his backers claim that h it. then it's going to be one rugged session for Ortega- Mike de Pinto and Georgie Brandon will mix in the other ten-round event. Brandon has been trying to get start here for gome time and promise to make it interesting for the little Italian, who is one of the cleveres boys developed hereabouts for some time. .

ART PICKFORD will be eeen in "The Love Light" at the Star theater, commencing tomorrow. This is a revival of one of Mary's most successful pictures, in which she plays a dramatic and emotional role. Snatches of comedy, especially in the first part of the picture, show Mary In some of ' her characteristic poses and relieve the tension of many of the scenes. The production is of unusual interest since Miss Pickford and Frances Marion worked out the story while thev ware in Italy. They obtained eome of the players there and many properties, which were brought to California especially for this picture. The Italian settings were minutely reproduced, some from photographs taken by Miss Pickford and Miss Ma non. Miss Marion has been respon sibly for nearly a dozen of Miss Pick ford's most successful stories. "The Love Light" is an original tale with a background of the world war, although there are no war pictures in the production. The principal character Is Angela Carlotti, who pre sides over the house of her two or phaned brothers, Antonio and Mario, in a little fishing village bordering on the Mediterranean in northern Italy. The young girl and her two brothers have a gay and care-free time until war comes and the boys en-list. The trials" which then befall sweet little Angela and the heartaches she experiences before finally finding happiness form the rest of the plot. The settings in the quaint little vil lage are realistic and beautiful. The cast includes Jean de Briac, Raymond Bloomer, Edward Phillips, Albert Preecott, Evelyn Dumo and George Rigas.

It costs money to keep a ball play er for a month. I don't know as the figures have ever been made public but I would assume that $3 a day each player would be a conservative estimate.

Training Possibly Overdone. Indeed, I am often given to- won dering whether this sort of train ing stunt Isn't overdone.

CHARLIE WHITE HOLDS SOME ORIGINAL VIEWS ON BOXING mi 1 Formidable Opponent of Benny Leonard Declares He Can Defeat . Champion, Because Latter Is Not Versatile in Ring. BY ROBERT EDGREN. Famous New York Sports Critic -HARLIE WHITE, Chicago light weight, has some original idea about boxing. . "I can beat Benny Leonard for the old title easier than I did Willie Jack son, argues White, which right away proves Charles parks unusual ideas inside his ha band. "Leonard," says White, is pretty much a regulation boxer. He does about everything la time-table order, hooks, jabs, crosses. Once an opponent solves Ben's style he knows about what to expect. It isn't necessary to be on the watch looking for some thing out of the ordinary. The cham pion is seldom different. 'Jackson is the other extreme. He Is tough and dangerous all the time. ecause he mixes up his attack. Jack son depends mostly on his. right hand. I knew that before entering the ring but I soon discovered I couldn t figure just how he'd use his right. For eight rounds at the garden I studied Jack son closely and even then wasn't thoroughly familiar with his awk ward methods. In my opinion a boxer lika Jackson is harder to stop than one like Leonard, with, his regulation style." " The records don't substantiate White's peculiar deductions. He out- I classed Jackson in their recent ses sion in the garden, scoring a clean knockdown. It was one of the few times in his long career that Jackson had been floored. The Windy City star failed to fath om Leonard's supposedly easy style the last time the two clashed at Ben ton Harbor. -On that occasion White was knocked out in the ninth round. This is how he explains that defeat: I had Leonard on the run for nearly eight rounds," declares White. 'I knocked him out of the ring in the fifth and was about to finish the champion in the ninth when Leonard hit me on the breakaway. This put me out for the count. We had agreed to fight with clean breaks and I wasn't expecting anything . when coming out of clinches. Leonard disregarded our agreement. White has improved considerably since his last fight with .The light weight titleholder. He has developed his right to the point where it is now a wicked instrument. Until recently the westerner did all the heavy work with his left. Because of this he Was known as Left Hook Charlie. Now he's a strong two-fisted fighter, a for midable opponent for Leonard. White and Leonard were originally scheduled for the Garden on March 7, but Benny's injury to his hand will move the bout back perhaps to the opening of the outdoor season when the scrap will attract a much bigger "gate" than the Garden would hold. For 14 years White has- been per forming in the ring but he doesn't think he should be called a veteran. I've only had 157 bouts in all my career," argues Charlie, "while Dun dee and eome other guys have an- wered the bell at least 500 times. Their hands are all busted up, while mine are as good as new." And White proudly exhibited a pair of strong, unmarked mitts with which he expects to take, away in Chicago Leonard's lightweight cham pionship. p . Over in England they have a notion their leading tennis players possess more stamina and last longer than American stars. The Britons question the efficiency of our aggressive style of game. They believe the American tennis champion""burns out" too soon. Writing in a recent issue of a prom inent London publication, H. Roper Barrett saya: "Too much is made, I think, of the modern fiery service; it rarely lasts for long. "Where id McLoughlin's service to day? I wonder, too, in this connec tion, how the team of Americans whom A. W. Gore, E. D. Black and myself met in the first Davis cup at Longwood in 1900 would fare against the three of us today? I am almost persuaded to wager a large cum of money only the L.- T. A. won't let me that Malcolm Whitman, Dwight Da vis and Holcombe Ward would not beat us if they came to Wimbledon this year." We can eay to Mr.' Barrett that Davis and Ward are not has-beeas. They are still playing fine tennis, a game that will beat many a young ster who wasn't born In 1900, when the American Davis cup team de feated its English opponents. In McLoughlin's case it is true that a fiery service claimed an early vic tim. Red Mao was never the earn after his sensational victories over Wilding and Brookes in 1914 for the Davis cup. But McLoughlin's case Is the exception to the rule. Whether the American court vet eran is no longer a match for hia English adversary, H. Roper Barrett can be thankful his tennis associa tion won't permit him to wager a large sum of money his team of old- timers co-uid take the measure ol a team of aged Yankees. Notice some of our learned educa tors still agitate what should be done about athletic coaches. Some suggest barring the professional ooach en tirely and returning the management of sports to undergraduates. This Is a beautiful theory, but not workable The average age of college football players is 20 years. They are too young to have sufficient poise and judgment to make decisions in a big game.! The elder and more experi enced coach is needed on the side lines if only to order substitutions. Even then his instructions are not always carried out In the excitement of a big game. Remember an unfortunate Incident that cost Priceton a coveted victory a few years ago. Bill Roper, head coach, rushed in a star dropktcker late in the game to replace a linesman who - had been rather battered up. Coming on the gridiron, the young "sub" forgot the name of the man he was to relieve. It was a trying mo ment for the dazed youngster, who desperately sought to collect his wits. The most valuable member of the Tiger team finally asked' the speech less substtiute who he was in for. "You," blurted out the frightened youth, partially recovering his senses. Roper's orders had been misunder stood. The star who left the game was never intended to be taken out. His absence allowed the other side to tie the score in the last few minutes.

MOVIE LUNCHEON TODAY CAMPAIGN. TO BE LAUNCHED FOR BETTER PICTURES. VALUE OF EXPENSIVE CAMPS FOR TRAINING IS QUESTIONED Managers Carry 40 or So Players Until Season Opens on Gambling Chance of Unearthing Some Great Baseball Phenom. BY HARRY B. SMITH. AN FRANCISCO. March 9. (Spe cial.) Eight Pacific coast league clubs are in training in various parts of California some north, some south. Generally speaking, they will pass a month in their training camps. and while some few of the exhibition gam-es may produce gate receipts for he most part it is a case of money 11 going' out and none coming in. For training purposes the " eight clubs are carrying at the present time all the way from 32 to 40 play ers, and that weans in the neighbor nood of 300 ballplayers. . Of course, there are no salaries paid, but these players have to be fed and housed and furnished with uniforms, proper attention from a physical standpoint, and all that. Take the case of the Seals. Jack Miller has some 40-odd ball players with him at Boyes Springs. Since the player limit in this league is 21 he will be forced to cut down virtually 50 per. cent when it comes time to start the pennant games. Of these 40 players it is safe to as sume that 25 per cent of them are Oregon Council of National Body Will Try to Create Demand for Cleaner Plays. The Oregon council of the national motion picture league will start soon in a campaign to create a public de mand for better pictures.

"No members of the motion-picture industry are permitted to be -memtbers of the league, although our organization seeks their co-operation. "An informed publio is the only way of making good pictures suc ceed. Producers will not furnish the better type of pictures, if they think the public doewnot wish them. If the public is given the power of selec tion and is offered both poor and good picture, the motion.-.plcture pub lic will choose the best pictures.
