HARPER'S YOUTH TO TELL
Seattle Boy Liable to Wear Down
Veteran in 10 -round Event
Tomorrow Night.
Joe Rivers stepped ten fast founds
of bag- punching;, rope skipping: and
shadow boxing: at the Olympic gym
nasium yesterday. The veteran, who
meets Bobby Harper in the ten
round main event of the Portland
Boxing commission smoker at the
armory tomorrow night, did not do
any boxing; for the simple reason
that there were no sparring; part
ners available.
If condition counts for anything
Rivers can be depended to take care
of himself tomorrow night against
Seattle Robert. When the Rivers
Harper bout was first signed skep
tical fans took it more or less in
the light of a setup for the Seattle
contender, figuring that Rivers had
just dropped in for a piece of easy
money. After watching the veteran
go through his paces in the gym
they were forced to change their
opinion somewhat, for Rivers is in
better condition right now than he
has been in the last five years.
Seattle Boxer Strong.
The qusetion is, will Rivers have
the etamina to travel ten rounds
against a youth of Harper's caliber?
The Seattle boxer is strong and is
capable of wearing his opponent
down in the clinches. Another thing,
Harper on more than one occasion
has demonstrated that he can take
'em. Harper does not take any more
than he has to, though, as he is a
great defensive boxer. However, the
Seattle lad has taken some pretty
healthy wallops on the chin in some
of his bouts, but it was not until
last week in his fight with Jimmy
Sacco that Bobby was knocked off
his feet.
Rivers has perhaps had the most
varied career of any lightweight
the country. Springing up practical
ly an unknown in Los Angeles he
rapidly became one of the best cards
In the country during' the old 20
round days. In his time he has
fought four world's champions.
Twice he fought for the lightweight
title and came mighty close to cop
ping the crown in his fight with Ad
Wolgast.
Rivera on Down Grade.
Of course the Joe Rivers of today
Is not the Joe Rivera who fought
Ad Wolgast to a standstill. They
did not have any soft ten-round, no-
decision bouts when he was in his
prime and many a tough 20-round
scran has helped wear him down.
But Rivers still is a good boxer and
retains all his old cleverness and
fighting ability even if he may not
have the stamina that beats cham
pions and contenders.
Over the short distances of four,
eix and even ten rounds Rivers
should be able to travel like the
Mexican marvel of old.

best showing of any of the gijbs by
putting George Brandon away in
one round.

Australian Golf t Wizard
Converts Skeptics
Joe Kirkwood proves he can
go through tournament play
with anyone.
BY ROBERT EDGREN.
WHEN Joseph Kirkwood, the
Australian golfing wizard,
was giving exhibitions in
this country a few months ago I
heard several golfers ask why,
since Kirkwood could make such
wonderful shots, he hadn't shown
up among the champions. Kirkwood
is open champion of his own coun
try, and they have a fair lot of golf
ers in Australia. When he turned
in the low medal score of 71 recent
ly In the 1000 guineas turnament at
Glen Eagles, Scotland, where Dun
can and Braid tied for second with
73 and our own Jock Hutchison
shot a 75, he showed that he can go
tnrougn tournament play with any
one.
There's a world of luck in Cham
pionship golf, which Is shown by
the fact that champions seldom re
peat their victories the ensuing
year. Any bird who can bury a golf
ball in the ground, stamp on it, and
then take a brassie and dig it out
with a swat that carries it 240
yards, ought to win nearly any
thing. - .
Prance may have a tough time
raising enough funds to hold the
1924 Olympic games, but it would
take a lot of arguing to induce gay
Par-ee' to give up .that 1924 hack
at the bankrolls of about 20,000
Americans who will go over to see
our boys clean up again.
TeXj. Rickard was "mystified"
when his first two cabled offers to
Carpentier for a match with Harry
Greb for the world's light-heavyweight
championship brought no
reply. Rickard is said to have of
fered Carp the neat sum of $150,000.
Jack Kearns explains that Carpen
tier can't fight Greb here, being
under an agreement not to risk a
beating by anyone before the sched
uled Dempsey-Carpentier bout,
some time within the coming 12
months, in London. Kearns says
that fight will draw more than the
$1,623,336 gate of the Dempsey
Carpentier fight at Jersey City, and
that Carpentier can't afford to risk
losing the chance to fight Dempsey
again, even if a beating goes with
th Durse. If he loses to Dempsey
he can still take on Greb for the
light-heavyweight title for another
huge purse. England and France
would excuse his defeat by a bigger
man and hope to see him win in
his own class.
Jess Willard is one boxer who
thinks Greb would beat Carpentier'.
"I think Greb is a wonder," says
big Jess. "He's the greatest little
man I ever saw. He'd knock out
the Frenchman in three or four
rounds, sure. He may not be big
enough to beat Dempsey, but nobody
In his own class has any chance
with him."
Dempsey says Greb is very good,
hut doesn't think he hits hard
enough to stow the French cham
pion away In anything less than a
20-round bout. "And if Georges
pops one on Harry's chin the way
he did on mine in the second round,"
Dempsey adds, "Harry might bounce
on the floor a couple of times. Oh,
yes, he might get up, for that
bird has a rubber core and a gutta
percha cover like a golf ball."
George Engle nas changed his
mind about taking a European trip
just now. He says Carpentier must
come to this country if he's to fight
Greb. "Harry's claim to the title is
as good as Carpentier's," says Engel.
"Harry beat the best men in this
country Tom Gibbons and Gene
Tunney and either of them could
have beaten Bat Levinsky easily
when' Carpentier beat him. I knew
Carpentier well in France and have
the greatest admiration lor him.
He's a splendid boxer, game, fast
and a puncher. But he hasn't mixed
up with a buzz saw yet and if he
ever meets Harry Greb he'll have a
new experience. He wouldn't have
any speed or punch if he was on his
heels all the time, and that's where
Greb keeps every man he fights."
Major Wilson, the English promo
ter, offered Greb $100,000 and pas
sage to meet Carpentier in London,
and the offer was refused probably
because the English war tax would
not leave Harry enough of that to
pay his income tax at home.
California's second victory in the
Intercollegiates calls to mind a few
other instances in which western
athletes have surprised the east in
the past few months, The eastern
coaches, reluctant to admit defeat,
explain that the west s rise in atn
letics is merely a matter of climate.
They advance the old argument that
the west has bulk and strength, but
the east monopolizes brains and
coaching skill. Which is as good a
line of bunk as any.
The west has produced world's
record-breakers In the events which
demanded the finest skill as well
as strength or speed. There's no
event depending on skill more than
hurdling. The west has produced a
long line of record-breakers in
hurdling, with Walter Henry, Er
nest Dyer, Smithson, Cheek, Kelly,
Murray and Thompson. The high
jump Improvements and new rec
ords came from the Pacific coast.
Mike Swenney's old 6 feet 5 6-8
inches lasted many years until bro
ken by George Horine of Stanford
with 6 feet 7 Inches, and again by
Edward Beeson of California with
6 feet 7 5-16 inches which still
stands. Frank Foss of Chicago
cleared 13 feet 5 5-8 inches in the
pole vault at the last Olympic, an
other event requiring more skiu
than strength.
In rowing, watch the Washington
crew this year. Several years ago
Washington sent a crew to the Hud
son, a big, powerful crew with little
coaching or experience, that came
near sweeping the river. Stanford
sent a wonderful crew, coached by,
a student who never rowed in a
race, and using a borrowed shell.
Last year at Poughkeepsie Coach
Rice of Columbia was watching the
Columbia crew, favorites before the
race, and was enthusiastic over their
form. The California crew rowed
past. Rice found something to criti
cise in their stroke, rigging oi tne
boat and coaching. The only kind
word he had was for the size of the
men. He figured them about last in
the race. But in the race Columbia
was last and California rowed such
a strong second to the Navy that
many experts said another mil
four Instead of three would have
eiven them the race.
George Foster aanrora, iookuis
over the Nebraska team that played
his Rutgers eleven' at the Polo
grounds, said: "Gee whiz! If I
had just one of those men on my
team you'd be writing stories about
my giant. They've got a whole
team of 'era. But their training is
crude. They don't know the game."
The Nebraska bunch were six
footers, even the quarterback. Their
size was accentuated by the crim
son stockings and jerseys they wore.
And they must have known Bome
football, for they piled up a top
heavy score and handled Rutgers
as if it had been a high school team.

ONI.T AUCOiCAM WINMCS OF BRITISH 'ofCft
NEW YORK, Jnne 25. While the
New York Giants are making pretty
much of a runaway race of it in the
National league, despite a series of
reverses last week, the pennant
hunt in the American circuit has de
veloped Into a spectacular three
club affair.
The St. Louis Browns, breaking
even in fourxgames with Detroit as
a result of today's shutout victory,
increased their margin to three and
a half games over the second place
Yankees, who were idle today, and
to four and a half games over the
battling Tigers. The Giants, by I
winning from Boston, retained their
lead of five games over St. Lauis
and five and a half' over Brooklyn,
both of whom kept pace with the
leaders by winning.
The Yankees, further handicapped
by the third suspension this season
of Babe Ruth, continued in the
throes of the dismal slump that cost
them their leadership and has jeo
pardized even their hold on second
piace in me race of the Tigers' rush.
Bracing momentarily against Cleve
land, the Hugmen drooped four
straight to the Red Sox and have
now lost 12 out of their last 14
games. The team's ihitting and
pitching both have been woefully
weak. . t
The Browns, with Williams and
Sisler leading a terrific attack, and
fortified by steady pitching, will be
hard to displace, while Ty Cobb has
hs outfit hitting a dangerous pace.
Taking four games in a row from
Cleveland, due chiefly to stellar
pitching, the Chicago White Sox
have gained a hold on fourth place
while the Indians have dropped into
sixth place, below Washington.
Rain played havoc with the Na
tional league schedule early in the
week, the Cincinnati Reds supply
ing the outstanding feature by tak
ing three straight, including? today's
game, from Pittsburg and climbing
to fourth place.
Loose fielding was largely re
sponsible for the Giant's reverses,
Brooklyn took two out of three
games from the leaders and with
the Pirates in a slump, hopped into
third place, which they held today
by margin of two and a half
games.
The Cardinals recovered their bat
ting eye today after dropping two In
a row to the Chicago Cubs. Despite
the reverse the Cubs gained a slight
advantage over the Pirates, with
whom they had been tied, In a battle
for fifth place.
The Boston and Philadelphia clubs
in both leagues hovered around the
cellar.
The week's record in each league
of games played, won and lost, to
gether with runs, hits, errors, men
left on bases, including games of
Saturday, is as follows:

SANDWICH, England, June 25. In
England they are discussing the
possibilities of Miss Joyce
Wethered winning the woman's title
in America this fall. (The ladies'
championship, they call this event
over here.)
Strange to say, the golfer whom
British experts think will be Miss
Wethered's most dangerous oppo
nent Is not the present champion
of America, Miss Marian Hollins, or
the former sensation and three times
champion, Miss Alexa Stirling, but )
rather the youthful Miss Glenna
Collett, whose fame as a "child won
der," like that of Bobby Jones, has
spread all over the British isles.
Both Miss Hillins and Miss Stir
ling have been seen in action in
England and Scotland and evidently
their golf failed to impress. The
English point out that both were
beaten over here by Miss Leitch
quite easily, but reports from Amer
ica last fall told them that Miss
Leitch met defeat at the hands of
Miss Collett and on another occa
sion the then English champion
barely defeated her.
Recent reports received here as
serting that little Miss Collett has
improved 50 per cent in the last
year has caused the English women
to wonder if Miss Wethered can in
terest her.
Expert critics compare the two
players and find that they are sim
ilar In many ways. Both are long
drivers for women. Neither has per
fected the iron club play, as have
Miss Stirling and Miss Leitch. The
approach is of great importance and
so is the putt, but without the long
drive the chances of success are
slim. -
Miss Wethered Long Driver,
There will be little to choose from
in regard to the tee shots of Miss
Wethered and Miss Collett. Of the
American girl it is said she has
something on any woman player in
driving, but the golfers over here
are not prepared to believe .this
statement and must be shown.
Experience counts for much in
match play or medal play either, and
the English girl may have some
thing of an edge in that respect, al
though Miss Collett, with her steady
play in the south in the winter and
In the north in the summer, has
gained a lot. I have just heard that
the Providence girl won the recent
eastern championship, which, added
t what she won last fall and her
north and south crown won at Pine-
hurst, gives her a number of titles.
Not in the history of the game has !
a youthful competitor, one barely
19, had so much success on the links
in tournament play.
Unlike Bobby Jones or Jess Swees
ter. Miss Collett has not played golf
long. She was not a prodigy such
as young Jones. Miss Collett, ac
cording to report, never took up the
game until she was 14, so she has
scarcely had five years of play.
Stories came out of the south last
winter telling of the tremendous
distance she was getting with the
steel-hafted clubs. All her success
was laid to this fact. But after her
return north, when the steel shafts
were barred, Miss Collett continued
to drive with the hickory shaft just
as far as ever.
This is what I contended when we
tried out the steel shaft at Chicago.
I could not drive any further, but
thought that I discovered there was
a tendency to go straighter. Per
haps the improvement in Miss Col
lett's game was due to the practice
she got with these clubs. She per
haps gained confidence that she
would not have gained otherwise.
By the way, they will have none
of the steel-shafted clubs here in
England and they are banned once
and for all, just as the Schenectady
putter and the ribbed-faced clubs
Golfers on this side of the Atlantic
are discussing the new bamboo
shafts. If they are a success they
may be the next to be made outlaws.
American Women Strong;.
It is a remarkable thing what a
hold golf has taken on the American
woman. Years ago one noticed the
same . names in
America has plenty of material
with which any feminine English
invasion might be repelled.
Outside of the two or three big
stars, girls who have won some
th'ng of importance, I would place
Miss Edith Cummings of Chicago
close to the top. Miss Cummings
made an enviable reputation for
herself in the south last winter; Her
round of 77 at Belleair is hardly
believable. It was surely the finest
golf any woman ever played in
America, as the championship course
at Belleair is difficult to score on.
Miss Cummings has, like Miss
Collett, improved her game 50 per
cent in six months' time. Here is
material for a future champion and
it will be interesting to watch her
progress. Although it was little
Mrs. Letts who defeated Miss Leitch
last fall at Hollywood, I am Inclined
to believe that she has not the long
game with which to repeat the
trick.
I am going to predict that, if Miss
Wethered meets defeat, it will come
from Miss Cummings or Collett
rather than from Miss Hollins or
Miss Stirling.
Golfers here say Miss Leitch will
not be able to go to America this
summer. This change in her plans
was caused by a strain in her back
Just before the British champion
ship. It may be that she will feel
better long before championship
time.
I recently played over the Prince
jourse at Sandwich and realized the
difficulties these women players had
in making a score there. Only very
accurate play counts on this course.
The combination of the good long
game and a good short one as well is
necessary to keep within range of
par. One slip is usually costly.

Bush League Notes.
Safe or Out?
BY CHARLES D. WHITE.
Q. .Ha any player except Kenneth
Williams of the St. Louis Browns made
three home runs in one game in the
American league?
, A. He is the only one.
Q. The batter hits the ball down the
third base line. The ball strikes the bag
and bounds 15 feet foul. Is it fair or
foul?
A. The ball Is fair. Whenever a bat
ted ball hits either third base or first
base it is called a fair ball.
Q. The batter hits an infield fly, .and
when the ball drops to the ground, ast It
is not caught, it hits him while he Is run
ning to first base. Is be out for being
hit by a batted ball or out by being put
out oy tne nrst Baseman?
A. He U to be. called out on an infield
fly caught by who ever of the fielders
was presumed to make tne eaten. In this
case probably the first baseman.
Q. Runners on second and third. The
pitcher takes his position to pitch and
delivers ball to the batter. As he does
so the runner on third starts for bome.
The catcher steps in front of the batter
so tnat tne latter cannot get a proper
swing at tne oau. wnat is me decision?
A. The batter should be sent to first
base and the runner should be permitted
to score . because the pitcher delivered a
strike to tne plate.
Q. what does the rule mean which
says that no stolen base shall be credited
to a runner who is allowed to advance
without an effort to stop him?
A. If the team In the field la five or
six runs ahead in the ninth Inning and
the catcher permits the runners to steal
bases without trying to put them out the
runners are not to be given oredit for
stolen bases.

fOU'LL GET RID OF .
BLACKHEADS SURE
There is one simple, zate and sure way
that never fails to get rid of blackheads,
that is to dissolve them.
To do this get two ounces of calonite
powder from any drug store sprinkle
a little on a hot, wet sponge rub over
the blackheads briskly wash the parts
and you will be surprised bow the black
heads have disappeared. Big' blackheads,
little blackheads, no matter where they
are, simply dissolve and disappear, leav
ing the parts without any mark what
ever. Blacjcneaas are simply a mixture
of dust and dirt and secretions frcm the
body that form in the pores of the skin.
Pinching and squeezing only cause Irri
tation, make large pores, and do not get
the blackheads out after they become
bard. The calonite powder and the water
sltnply dissolve tne blackheads so they
T.-ash right out, leaving the pores free
and clean and in their natural condition.
Anyone troubled with these 'unsightly
blemishes should certainly try this simpls
method. Adv.
generation has taken up the game. Miss Laura Korell Saturday, 6-2, 6-3. phia, national title holder, head the
lor leaerue company.
"Only a boy catcher, wasn't I,
John? Just a boy catcher?" Doyle
asked.
And before John could answer a
venerable ballplayer who stood by
chipped in and said: "A boy catch
er, eh? A boy catcher with a great
grandfather's line of talk to an um
pire. Boy catcher? Why, you
talked to 'em like you'd been playin
with Noah's anlmiles."
