Tom Kins Returns.
Tom King is back in Portland
after getting a draw in his fight
with Jimmy Darcy Friday night at

roughest ever staged in that town.
Both battlers were battered and

King knocked Darcy down once,
but it was a good draw. King is

JESS WILLARD TO APPEAR
IN MILWAUKIE EXHIBITION
Heavyweight Who Lost to Dempsey Is to Show Wares on December
18 in Six Rounds of Action. .
CHANCE IS SIS
BY L. H. GREGORY.
JESS WILLARD, behemoth of the
boxing ring, 270-pound chal
lenger of Jack Dempsey for the
heavyweight title Dempsey took
from him, will appear at Milwaukie
December 18, in a six-round exhibi
tion. This positive announcement
of time, place and exhibition was
made yesterday by Bobby Evans, the
well-known boxing promoter and
manager, who is booking Willard's
tour through the northwest.
Evans himself will supervise every
show in which the big fellow ap
pears in the northwest. That in
cludes the Milwaukie show, and the
announcement is a guarantee in it
self that in addition to Willard there
will be a worth-while card all
around.
Milwaukie was selected as the
place after Evans had given the
Portland commission every chance
to sign the big ex-champ, whose ex
hibition tour is expressly intended
to further his campaign against
Dempsey. The Portland commission
wanted the bout, but with its feath
ule. In that period he learned a
good many things about schedule
making and human nature that all
his university experience hadn't
taught him.
When the conference graduate
managers and coaches and faculty
representatives first set about it to
draw up a schedule they ran against
the hard-boiled attitude of Brother
Mitchell. He had come to the meet
ing with a certain programme in his
head, and he was going to adhere to
that programme if it broke up the
conference.
All he stood pat on wag that Stan
ford should play only three confer
ence games, whereas the other con
ference colleges all were to play
four or five games; that Stanford
should have an open week between
each of these three - conference
games, including the Saturday be
fore the traditional Stanford-California
"big game"; that Stanford
would not make a northern trip at
all, but would "concede" a game to
one northern college team if said
team would come to the Stanford
campus. - . t

ABERDEEN DECLINES GAME
Desire to Meet Scott, O., Eleven

ABERDEEN, Wash., Dec. 11.
(Special.) George B. Miller, Aber
deen school superintendent, today
announced that Aberdeen high
school will not play Soott high
Bchool of Toledo on New Year's day
for the national prep schools title.
The reason given was that the
Washii.gton high school athletic
association rules do not permit post
eeason games.
"We would like to play Scott for
lthe national championship, but we I
fire going to abide by the associa
tion rules strictly," said Mr. Miller.
"A rule is a rule and although it
does seem that there should be pro
visions for emergencies, it will be
a blotch on the record of the Aber
deen school to violate the rule over
which thera 1ms been so much

The decision of Aberdeen clears
the way for Bellingham high to

able to that school.

ish in last summers Davis cup

thought that as the Spaniards were

America, it ''would be hard on
Spain to put our best team against
them."
Mr. Myers then trmed the default
"a humiliating surrender, for the
first time in the history o,f English
Davis cup teams," and answering a
remark that the British were finan
cially handicapped, read a letter
from Captain Alonzo of the Span
ish team saying that the Spanish
federation had an income of only
.40 annually and that the team was
helped to America by advances
from- the American federation.

Willard is the logical opponent for
Dempsey at this writing. He is. the

That makes Willard a big card.

NEW YORK, Dec. 11. (By the
Associated Press.) Frank Leroy
Chance, ex-manager of the Chicago
Nationals and the New York Amer
icans today signed a contract to
manage the Boston American league
club for 1923. Official announce
ment of the consummation of the
deal was made by H. H. Frazee
president of the Red Sox from his
New York office
The Boston owner also said that
the engagement of Chance marked
the first step in the reconstruction
of the Red Sox. Every effort will
be made to strengthen the team
by trade and purchase in order to
make it a factor in future pennant
races. Chance will have full au
thority and control in rebuilding
the club and may appear in playing
uniform on the coaching lines. He
will not, however, engage in actual
play. ,
Chance expressed his keen pleas
ure upon re-entering major league
baseball and stated that, having dis
posed of his real estate interests at
Glendora, Cal., he expected to make
his home in the east for the future.
The signing of Chance by the Red
Sox brings back to the National
game one of the most popular and
dynamic personalities the game has
ever known. As first baseman and
"peerless leader" a decade or more
ago of the famous Chicago Cubs
National league champions four
times and world's champions twice
Chance established a brilliant rep
utation not only as a ball player
but as a field general and strategist.
After 15 years with the Cubs,
eight of them aa manager, Chance
severed his Chicago connections in
1912 with the intention of ret'ring
to his California orange grove, but
was persuaded to take over th

The new thing ia the fact that no i

There will be sprints, sack races.

One of the most exciting events
will be the centipede race. This is

30 yards from the starting point
and back. Each team must turn
around an obstacle before starting
on the finish lap. This is said to
be one of the most exciting of
spectacles and calls for perfect
timing. If any member of a team
gets out of step the result is sure
to be disastrous.
The track meet Friday will be
the first of a series to be' held by
the guard this winter. Other units
in various parts of the state will
hold similar tourneys and the
winners of- these will meet each
other some time before the advent

Not only will the Friday night
exhibitions be free to the general

refreshments free of charge to all
who attend.

"There is already a strong move
ment in congress to prevent any
increase in the personnel of the
regular army and the members of
both houses at Washington have
been liberal with appropriations for
the guardsmen all over the country.
That is why we are able to conduct
an athletic ttournament without

could make one of the biggest finan
cial cleanups in the history of box
ing if he cared to go about the
country knocking over the soft ones.
Jim Jeffries did that when he "came
back" to take on Jack Johnson and
Jeff salted away a quarter million
fish on his preliminary tour against
setups.
Willard has had a dozen proposi
tions of that kind made to him, but
has turned them all down. Tulsa,
Okla., offered him $10,000 for a fight,
Willard to select his own opponent
and name his own referees but he
wouldn't. He also refused $30000 in
hard cash to meet Floyd Johnson,
the latest comer in heavyweight
ranks. Jess would have gone back
twice as far as he is supposed to
have done and still have beaten
Johnson, but he wouldn't accept.
He has declined all these offers
of big money because, in his own
words, he doesn't want "to bunk the
public."
"I'm not trying to make a sucker
of anybody." Willard told Evahs
before he consented to make this
tour. 'I know and everybody else
knows that I could knock - over
plenty of these boys and add thou
sands to the bank-roll with no risk
to myself. But- why should I do
that? I'm not after the cinch money
What I want is a return go with

Professor Mitchell, the Stanford
university faculty representative at
the coast conference meeting in Se
attle last week, gained a liberal edu
cation in the 36 hours it took to
frame the conference football sched-
finally did, everything from that mo
ment was lovely.
The upshot was that the confer
ence adjourned with Stanford in
good standing and a football sched
ule on a parity with that of the
other universities. Dr. Mitchell had
learned more about human nature
than he hnew 36 hours earlier, he
had become positively human and
likeable himself, and everybody
parted on terms of friendship with
everybody else.
All the coaches steered just as
clear of Idaho for next season asj
they could apparently because they
all believe Idaho, with Bob Mathews
coaching his second season there.
will have a whale of a football
team. For a time it looked as if
Idaho would have to worry along
with only one conference game, but
the other coaches grudgingly agreed
tne ena to give Matnews some
games if he would play them on
their campuses, which he was will
ing to do.
Mathews had no trouble getting
his traditional game against Wash
ington State, for Gus Weich never
sidesteps any of them. But it was
amusing to note how, enthusiastic
ally the University of Washington
hastened to make other plans.
Mathews Idaho team held Wash'
ington to a .2-to-0 score at Seattle
this fall and Washington wanted no
more of that. She dropped Idaho
like a hot potato and resuumed re
lations with Whitman, which pre
viously had been dropped for Idaho.
Finally Mathews managed to get
games witn Oregon Agricultural col
lege, which agreed to play at Boise,
but hated to; against Oregon, which
wasn t at all anxious to sign up,
but could hardly avoid it; against
Southern California, which offered
Mathews a game at Los Angeles on
Thanksgiving day; and against
Stanford, which innocently took on
the vandals at Palo Alto for the
Saturday prior to the Stanford-
California game on the theory that
Idaho should provide a good work
out for that week. When Andy
Kerr learns about that game he
probably will be so pleased he will
dance a breakdown in the middle of
the campus.
Moral: If you coach at a small
college, don't develop too good a
football team if you want games.
