THE SUSTDAY OREGOKIAX, PORTLAND, JUNE 16, 1907.
FUST ATHLETES TO
MEET AT SEATTLE
Much Interest Aroused by the
News That Olympic Club
Will Enter Team.
PARSONS REFUSES TO COME
California Sprinter Sidesteps D
Kelly, but They Will Probablr
Scratch Gravel at tb
Jamestown Fair.
Although there has been a general feel
ing that Multnomah will win the Pacific
Northwest Athletic Association meet at
Beattle next Friday and Saturday, there
Is no little uneasiness among the en
thusiasts of the local club, for an ele
ment of uncertainty has been injected
into the meet at the eleventh hour. This
uncertainty Is the result of the Olympio
Club's decision to enter a team of four
or five men. Announcement has been
made by Manager Inglla that the San
Francisco Club will be represented by
Plaw, the champion hammer-thrower of
the Coast: Snedigar, the crack Califor
nia sprinter; Powell, the fleet-footed
hurdler; Cheek, the hurdler and broad
jumper, and possibly Glarver, the re
nowned middle-distance runner. This
Information, coupled with the news that
the Spokane Athletic Club is scouring
the Inland Empire for point-winners,
has caused the locals to sit up and take
notice. Multnomah is not afraid of any
or all of these record-breakers, and their
presence will certainly liven things up
nd land that element of uncertainty
that every true sportsman loves.
Parsons Will Not Come.
The announcement that Charley Par
sons, the well-known California sprinter,
had declined to enter the meet was the
signal for shouts of derision among the
many friends of Dan Kelly. When the
Olympic Club arranged for an open field
day in April, Kelly was Invited to at
tend, as was the speedy Parsons. At
that time the Oregon champion was suf
fering with a badly strained tendon in
his leg and was also nurBlng a bad case
of poison oak. Trainer Hayward refused
to allow him to leave Eugene, and whew
the announcement was made, the press
of California branded Kelly as a coward
and a weakling. San Francisco sports
touted him as a quitter and many unkind
and unjust things were said about the
auburn-haired Irish lad from Baker City.
Conditions are reversed now, and It Is
Kelly's turn. The laugh is on Parsons
and hie California friends and Kelly's
admirers in the Northwest are in high
glee. Manager Inglis offered to pay all
of Parson's expenses to and from Seat
tle, but the California wonder never
even did him the courtesy to answer the
invitation. A newspaper man in Los
Angeles finslly wired that Parsons had
declined the offer, but would prepare to
meet Kelly it Jamestown.
It seems to be settled that Kelly will
go to Jamestown and It Is reasonable
to believe that he and Parsons will toe
the scratch for two of the best races
ever seen in America. There Is no
denying the fact that considerable feel
ing exists between these two sprinters
and their followers, and that there will
be ome fast gravel scratching when
the races are on.
Olympic Team Is Strong.
The prowess of the quartette who
will represent Olympic next Friday and
Saturday is well known. Plaw has a
record of 173 feet in the hammer throw,
and Snedigor's ability in the sprinting
line Is recognized far and wide. Powell
and Cheek, the Olympic hurdlers, are
equally as fast as the speedy Moores
and there will be some great going in
these races. If Zacharias Is at his
best, Plaw may not have such an easy
time in the hammer throw. McKlnney
should win the shot-put and discus
throw, and possibly the 66-pound
weight event, and Hug Is capable of
winning points In all of the weight
throwing contests. Kelly ought to win
the sprints and broad Jump, while Reid
and Greenhaw stand an even chance
with Thomlle and Edmunson in the
middle-distance runs. Wills, of the
Seattle Athletic Clut, Is regarded as a
dangerous man In the 440-yard dash,
and Dave Grant, of the same team, is
a clever performer in the high Jump.
DeVolt. the Cnrvnllls distance run
ner, may run for Multnomah and if he
does, the fast men or Spokane will
have to look to their laurels. 1
Spokane Is Out to Win.
Pearson is counted on to win many
points in the sprints for the Spokane
agRregntlon, and Pearson, Thomlle,
Hall and Edmunson are regarded by
Spokane sports as sure winners of the
relay race. One of the latest acquisi
tions to the Spokane team is Adams,
the champion pole vaulter of Utah.
Adams has a record of 11 feet 9 inches,
and Holdman (Seattle) will have to do
some high stunts If he beats the Utah
lad. Spokane may have Bob Corey, the
Montana sprinter who chased Kelly
home in the record-breaking sprint at
Spokane last season. The Spokane ag
gregation Is out to win, and will bring
a strong, well-balanced team over to
the meet. The Spokane manager has
objected to the SB-pound weight. In
which event his team has no reliable
men, and has Insisted upon the addi
tion of the relay race to the pro
gramme. Manager Inglis will add the
relay event because he overlooked it
In the first place, but he has refused
to remove the big weight event from
the programme.
Hayword to Come Today.
Trainer Hayword will come down
from Eugene today and will hold a
conference with Pert Kerrigan and
Frank Lonergan. who have charge of
the Multnomah team. He will return
to - ugene tonight and will bring seven
or eight of his best men down here
on Thursday. The Corvallls men who
have been Invited to run under Mult-
omah colors will probably arrive the
same day. A number of local celeb
rltles are In training and It Is cer
tain that Hayword will nave plenty of
men from which to select his team.
The Multnomah aggregation will
leave for Seattle at 4:30 P. M. on Thurs
day. INTEREST IN TRAPSHOOTIXG
Growl h of Sport Indicated by FYir
rriatlon of Interstate Tornaments.
Trap shooting, a growing sport among
shotgun shooters, owes much to the In
terstate Association for 'the Promotion of
Trap Shooting, which has perfected the
rules, organized the tournaments and as
sisted In many ways to raise it to lta
preeent high level.
Started In 1893, It had a pretty hard
time up to the first Grand American
Handicap, which was held at Dexter Park,
L. I., April S to 7, 1893. From that time
interest In trap shooting became general
In the East. Then It jspread westward,
and In 1902, when the" Grand American
Handicap waa held at Kansas City, Mo.,
there waa an entry list of 493, with 45
actual starters. Last year the sport had
practically captured every section of the
country, and four new handicaps were
arranged. The Eastern Handicap was
held at Philadelphia; the Southern at
Nashville, Tenn.; the Western at Den
ver, Colo., and the Pacific Coast Handi
cap at Los Angeles, Cel. All were suc
cesses In every way.
For the present year the board of di
rectors Is composed of J. A. Haskell, pres
ident; W. F. Parker, vice-president: A.
C. Barrell, treasurer; T. H. Keller, Chas.
Tatham. A. H. Durston and J. T. Skelley,
with Elmer E. Shaner as secretary-manager.
The Interstate tournaments for the
coming season will be the Southern Han
dicap, at Richmond. Va., May 8 to 10; the
Grand American Handicap, at Chicago,
June 18 to 21: the Eastern Handicap, at
Boston, July 16 to 18: the Western Handi
cap, at Denver, August 30 to 22, and the
Pacific Coast Handicap, at - Spokane,
Wash., September 10 to 12.
THREE TEAMS IN THE RACE
FIGHT NARROWS FOR THE TRI
CITY LEAGIE PEXNANT.
Frakes Has Little Best Chance to
Win, Because It Has Long
Series at Home.
The pennant race of the TrICIty League
has settled down to three teams the
Frakes, St. Johns and Woodburn. And
at present It looks as If the Milliners
will be successful In carrying off the rag.
They have been playing away from home
for some time, while the other two teams
have been lucky enough to have all their
games In their home towns. But now
the Frakes will play at home, and the
two other teams will be compelled to go
around the circuit.
A meeting of the officials of the league
was held Thursday night, and It was
decided to enforce stringently the league's
blacklist clause. By this ruling play
ers who Jump to teams on which there
are blacklisted players will themselves be
blacklisted.
Ed Davey, who was one of the um
pires of the league, left this week for
Stevenson, Wash., where he will engage
In business. He will manage a ball team
In that town, and from all reports will
have a very fast bunch. Hlggins and
Emrick of the Trunks, and Adams and
Porterfield of St Jnhna hnvn lnmnH tn
this team, and Davey is now trying o
get Ash Houston. He promises to secure
good positions for all the men and give
them a good chance to play ball on Sun
days. Somebody at Schiller's the other night
asked Fred "Qoggy"' Gardiner If Steven
son Is In the Trolley League. Now "Gog
gy" doesn't like to see the good men of
the league Jumping, and consequently has
no liking for Davey's. team.
"Trolley League! Get off your foot. It
Is a gasoll'.ie launch league. The only
way you can get to Stevenson is to swim
or hire a boat."
Harvey Newell, who at the beginning of
the season was the field captain and sec
ond baseman of the Frakes, will return
and cover his old position. Joe Mangold
will be shifted to center field, and Charlie
Parrott released.
The Bankers' team, which will play a
team composed of the Doctors and Law
yers of the city on Multnomah Field, June
22, Is out at practice every morning from
7 to 9. The boys are doing good work
and expect to beat the professional men.
The lawyers and doctors are not idle, and
are out every evening, fully confident of
beating their rivals. The proceeds of
the game will go to charity. A number
of the prominent society ladies of the
city will act as patronesses, and the game
promises to be one of the big outdoor
events of the season.
The interscholastlo season is over, and
no pennant will be given. Because of
the Inability to play the championship
game according to the schedule, the Co
lumbia, whose school year was ended, de
cided to disband. A meeting of the offi
cials of the league was held, and It was
decided to cancel the game and allow
the championship to rest between Colum
bia and High School.
The past year has been successful, as
far as lnterecholastlc baseball Is con
cerned. A new team, the East Side High
8chool, made Its appearance on an ath-

I'XIVERKITY.Or OKEOON TRACK TEAM.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Or., June IS. (Special.) The Oregon track team has closed a most successful season, and has not only won the cham
pionship of the Pacific Northwest with comparative ease, but has established many excellent records.
Th men represented In the above picture are as follows (reading from left to right): '

Middle row Oberteuffer. Sullivan. Oodson. Huston. McEwan, Kelly (captain-elect). - J

letle field this season, and came out
fourth in the league.
Columbia started off well, but through
the loss of two of its best players Otto
Mtore and Perterneld the team was
weakened. The boys lost one game,
played another very poor one, but after
a few weeks' practice with the new men,
picked up and played great ball. Colum
bia and the High School were a standoff.
The Collegians had the best of the High
School lads in fielding, while High School
had the best batters. The only game
the two teams played this season result
ed in a l-to-0 score and was won by the
High School. Portland Academy did not
do much and dropped out of the post
season series. The three other teams
East Side High School. Hill and Allen
were a'.i weak, and did not figure in the
championship.
ROWING CREWS WORK HARD
Interest In Sport Revived With Ar
rival of New Four-Oared Shell.
Since the arrival of the Portland Row
ing Club's new four-oared shell, the in
terest In rowing has Increased and every
night, rain or shine, many members of
the club are. out at work practicing for
the races. Coach Murphy has two four
oared crews out every night. He intends
to pick his senior crew from these men.
The two crews have a good opportunity
to work against each other, and all the
men are exhibiting a great deal of inter
est in the races.
The new shell is pronounced by experts
to be a wonder, one of the best boats
ever brought to the Coast. It was built
In the East and shipped by steamer to
the Isthmus, by railroad over the Isth
mus, shipped again by steamer to San
Francisco, and again loaded on a steamer
and shipped to this city. The cause of
this roundabout Journey was the fact
that the railroads do not care to handle
shells because of the great length and
the hard work of transferring the boats
from one train to another. They cannot
be shipped In a freight car and must al
ways be sent by express.
If the railroads will promise to handle
the long elght-oared boats, the clubs of
the Northwest might all Install eight
oared shells next year. There are no
freight cars which are long enough to
hold one of these boats, and very few
express or baggage cars long enough, but
If the clubs can get the railroads to
promise to furnish long cars for the ship
ment of the eights, then they will all
Install these crews. The plan of the Seat
tle Athletic Club to send a crew East
this Summer has failed. It is not known
whether it Is lack of funds or the refusal
of the entry that caused the failure.
WHV WHITE SOX WIN GAMES
Umpiring to the Bad, Is Clark Grif
fith's Solution.
On being Interviewed by a sporting
writer as to why the Chicago White
Sox, with no great batters and only a
few great fielders, win so many games,
the American League managers e'x
plaln It as follows: .
"No club on earth can get an even
break with the umpiring there," la
Clark Griffith's solution. "As soon as
an umpire steps on those grounds
Comlskey and Jones own htm. You
can go the limit In quoting me as of
the oplnton that the umpiring In this
league is rotten."
"It's the old fox, Comlskey, aided
and abetted by Jones, Isbell, Davis and
Donohue," said Joe Cantlllon. "The
schemes they scheme, the plots they
plot is shameful the other fellows."
"Gol dar 'em," said Connie Mack.
"You never can anticipate 'em. If you
try to outguess them they make you
look like a rube."
"Oh. those Sox," remarked Hughey
Jennings. "Somebody on that team
was a student of our old style of playing
the game in Baltimore. You hear folks
say nowadays: 'Detroit outbattled Chi
cago, but was outgeneraled." That's
the explanation of the Sox's success."
"They have great pitchers and play
ball every minute," said Manager Lajoie,
of the Napa
"I'm too young a manager to express
an opinion " said Bob Unglaub, of the
Boston Americans, "but my own notion
is that it Is something besides luck."
"When you are figuring out success in
baseball, you want to Ignore luck and
brawn and weight and speed, and Just
think of the cold-blooded, unsentimental
plot of the opposition to win the game by
Just outguessing you."
"I throw up my hands," remarked Jim
my McAleer. "We used to spring some
surprises on the opposition In the old
days In Cleveland, when we had Tebeau,
O'Connor and Burkett to help us plot, but
they were nothing to the things that mob
up in Chicago introduces you to."
WINNERS OF PACIFIC NORTHWEST CHAMPIONSHIP FOR
PULL M A fJ WINNER
OF CHAMPIONSHIP
Successful Season of College
Baseball in the Pacific
Northwest.
WHITMAN IN SECOND PLACE
State University and Agricultural
College Tied for First Honors
in Oregon Sport Growing
In Popularity.
College baseball has been successful In
the Pacific Northwest this year, and the
future of the national game as a branch
of intercollegiate sport in this section
seems assured. The Washington State
College closed the season with a record
of victories for which the Intercollegiate
championship of Oregon, Washington and
Idaho is rightfully -claimed.
The Pullman nine won the three games
from the Lewiston Normal school; two
from Oregon; two from Idaho, two from
Whitman and one from the Cheney Nor
mal School. Besides these Intercolle
giate victories, the Pullman lads, won
games from the Blair, Business College,
of Spokane, the Clarkston town team, the
Sprague league team and the Ritzvllle
league team. One game was lost to
Whitman College; one to Rltzville and
one to Tacoma. Whitman's victories
over the University of Washington put
the latter team out of -the running and
established beyond a doubt the claim of
the Washington State College to the
championship.
Out of 17 games played, the Pullman
champions won 14 victories and estab
lished a playing average of .820 per cent
for the season. This is a good record
for any team, and when it is remembered
that these lads played against the best
league teams of the Inland Empire, the
showing is all the more remarkable. In
batting, fielding, base-running and clever
pitching the Pullman nine showed great
strength.
The team was coached by "Johnnie"
Bender, the famous Nebraska athlete.
Bender also turned out a speedy football
eleven at Pullman last season, and as a
reward for his services has been engaged
by Washington State College to train
both the football and baseball teams next
year.
Whitman is entitled to second place
among the colleges, having won two
games from Idaho, two from Washington
and one from Oregon. In Marquis, the
Missionaries have the best amateur
pitcher in the Northwest and perhaps on
the whole Coast. Marquis won every
game that he pitched this year, and out
classed every, twlrler that he met. The
colleges of the Inland Empire all have
corking good baseball teams and while
they are not equal to the Oregon colleges
In football and track work, they make
up for this deficiency In their ability to
play baseball. Pullman, Whitman and
Idaho all had teams this season that
could have given the Coast League ag
gregations a hard tussle.
Oregon and O. A, C.Are Tied.'
The intercollegiate championship of
Oregon was not settled, but resulted in a
tie between the University of Oregon and
the Oregon Agricultural College. The
Oregon varsity won the first game by 9
to 3, but lost the return game to Corval
lls by 6 to 4. A third game should' have
been arranged, and the championship set
tled, but aa college closed at Corvallls
early last week and as-examinations were
on at Eugene, such a game was out of
the question.
The Agricultural College came to the
front this year with a number of good
players, and, by another season, should
have a well-developed nine. The Oregon
varsity played a good fielding game, had
two clever but very erratic pitchers, but
was below the average In batting. It Is
doifbtful whether any team In the North
west could beat the Eugene lads at base
running. Both Hurd and Clifford are
capable of mighty good box work, but as
a reliable pitcher, Todd, of O. A. C, out
classes them. During the season, Oregon
played 15 games and lost six. The var
sity won two games from the Eugene
Colts, two from The Dalles Athletic Club,
two from Multnomah, one from the Salem
High School, one from. Chemawa, and
one from O. A. C. Two games were lost
to Pullman, one to Whitman, one to
Idaho, one to the Colfax League team,
and one to O. A. C. Hathaway, a Port
land boy, has been elected captain of the
Oregon nine for next season. He is a
good player and has a high batting
of the smaller colleges of the
state was represented by a well-organised
nine. The small colleges prefer track
athletics to baseball and are hardly large
enough to support both branches of
sport.
Hard Plays at Raseburg.
A commotion has been raised In
Willamette Valley baseball circles be
cause certain fans at Roseburg declare
that Lee Hurd, the Oregon 'varsity
southpaw, . played under an assumed
name and in the uniform of the Eugena
Colts at Roseburg last Sunday. Hurd
has made a vigorous denial of the charge
that he played under an assumed name,
but says that the umpire simply made a
mistake when he announced the. batter
ies to the bleachers. Hurd further says
that the Eugene Colts are amateurs, that
his home Is in Eugene and that he has a
perfect right to play on his town team
after the college season is closed. The
University of Oregan has rules agalnBt
Sunday baseball playing and . against
playing on outside teams while the col
lege season is on, and for this reason, it
appears that young Hurd has not vio
lated the letter of the law.
On the very afternoon that Hurd was
pitching at Roseburg, several of the Ore
gon Agricultural College players were
playing with a Corvallls town team In
a game against Albany.
There seems to be a frenzied desire on
the part of many college players to Join
professional and semi-professional teams
Just aa soon as the college season closes.
The big Institutions of the East and Mid
dle West are constantly having trouble
with their baseball men who Join "brush
leagues and play under assumed names
on Summer resort nines. For this rea
son, college baseball is in bad repute in
many places.
The young man who lowers his stand
ing by such performances is unworthy
of membership on his college team. The
Amateur Athletic Union has adopted
stringent rules against this species of
professionalism, and it Is hoped that the
rules will be rigidly enforced.
The- leading colleges of the Pacific
Northwest should bind themselves to
gether In a strong association for the
protection and betterment of their ath
lect Such san association could regu
late all branches of Intercollegiate sport,
arrange satisfactory schedules and af
filiate its membership with the Amateur
Athletic Union.

"Iilttle Chocolate" Recipient of Com

George Dixon, the greatest little
fighter of bis weight that this country
has every produced. Is taking life easily
In New York City, thanks to a few big
hearted sports who attended the Mc
Govern benefit.
On the night of the Terry testimonial
Dixon slipped In Harry Harris' dressing-room
and asked the New York
boxer for 10 cents tot pay his car fare
home. Dixon said that he was flat
broke and without a hint to where his
breakfast was to come from.
Harris handed him a 85 note and
after dressing went out intothe crowd.
Moving among the men he knew,
Harris circulated the story that Dixon
was down and out and without a penny.
The sports began to dig. Part of the
evening had been taken up by the
auction sale of cartoons by New York
artiBts dealing with sporting subjects.
There was one cartoon left, a picture
of McGovern and RooBevelt with hands
clasped, over the caption: "The Two
Greatest Fighters In the World." It
was agreed to put this cartoon up for
Dixon's benefit and a Wall street
broker secured it at $1100.
Inside of 16 minutes they raised $1500
for Dixon and the money was placed In
the hands of a committee, with Instruc

of $25 a week.
Dixon has earned more than $100,000
during bis time as a topnotcher, but he
never knew what It was to save a
dollar.

The cause of Rheumatism is a sour, acid condition of the blood, brought
about by indigestion, chronic constipation, and the accumulation in the
system of refuse matter which the natural eliminative organs have failed to
carry out. This refuse or waste matter ferments and sours, generating uric
acid which is absorbed into the blood and distributed to all parts of the body,
and Rheumatism gets possession of the system. One may also be born
with a predisposition or tendency to Rheumatism, because like all blood dis
eases it can be transmitted from parent to child. The aches and pains of
the disease are only symptoms which you may scatter or relieve with lini
ments, plasters, blisters, etc., or deaden with opiates. As soon, however,
as such treatment is left off or there is any exposure to cold or dampness, 01
after an attack of indigestion or constipation, the wandering pains, sore
muscles and joints, and tender places on the flesh' return, and the sufferer
finds that he has merely checked the symptoms while the real cause of the
disease remains in the blood. Rheumatism can never be cured while the
blood remains saturated with Irritating, pain-producing uric acid poison.
S. S. S. cures Rheumatism by driving the cause out of the blood. It thor
oughly cleanses the blood and renovates the circulation by neutralizing the
acids and expelling all foreign matter from the system. S. S. S. stimulates
and invigorates the blood so that instead of a weak, sour stream, constantly
depositing acrid and corrosive matter in the muscles, joints, nerves and
bones, the body is soothed and nourished by rich, health-sustaining blood,
which completely and permanently cures Rheumatism. S. S. S. is composed
