PLAN FOR SUMMER Coming Tennis Season Here Promises to Be Liveliest of Court Record.

Experts to Visit Portland. Tennis enthusiasts of Portland are Already active ln planning for the coming- season. The season this year is earlier than usual and the prospects are that this will be the biggest ten nis year that Portland has ever known. The first tournament of the season in the city will be the Irvington meet during the first two weeks in June. The Btate tournament will be held on Multnomah field July 18, and the Fall tournament of the Irvington Club will be held in September. The Breakers meet will occur August. 22. The Irvington people this year were anxious to secure the state meet, as It was held last season on the Mult nomah courts. The National tennis committee, however, gives the tourna ments to the same club every year as a rule, and the Multnomah Club gives the Oregon state tournament to an other organization only when the M. A. A. C. sanctions it.. The state tourna ment two years ago was held at Irv ington only because Multnomah re quested it. Tennis is becoming so popular among both the young and old mem bers that the Multnomah Club is in, need of several new courts. There are four asphalt courts now and in good weather these are in constant use. It is proposed to build on the newly purchased ground at least three new clay courts and two asphalt courts. The board of directors practically has decided upon the construction of two courts Immediately and It is planned to have them ready, for use by the first of June. Other Clubs Active. The Irvington Club is also planning the construction of one or two new courts on its new ground. Irvington courts have a decicjed advantage in situation, as they are in a locality which is open to the cool west wind during the hot weather in the Sum mer. The Golf Club expects to devote more attention than usual to tennis this sea son, and there Is some likelihood of an interclub tournament between the Multnomah Club, Irvington Club and the Golf Club. If this is held, teams of singles and doubles will be entered by each organization. The Y. M. C. A. lias organized a ten nis club with a charter membership of 20. The officers elected last week were: President, Charles S. Loeding; vice-president, II. S. Npal; secretary, W. C. Moore; treasurer, G. B. Mitchell. The club has two excellent courts at Tenth and Columbia streets, which are being put into condition. Plans are being made for a tournament In the early Summer. The association has many crack players, who gained their o-.perience in the East. and it is thought teams can be turned out which will be second to none in the cily. It is the'opinlon of W. R. Wilbur, a prominent tennis player of the Mult nomah Club, that Portland will not ,:'k" the place In tennis It ought to, until more attention is paid to devel oping boys and girls in the points of tl e game. -We will never have great players here" unless they are developed from the young members or come here from other places." said Mr. Wilbur. "In I.os Angeles tennis Is played the year around and that is the main reason such wonderful players as May Sutton and Hazel Hotchkiss hail from that eection. "The clubs should have special courts and special tournaments for the young members. An asphalt court probably will be built at the Irvington Club for this purpose. "It would also be a good Idea to have tournaments for older men who cannot play the strenuous game of their younger friends." Public Courts Sought. A movement is on foot to build a num ber of public tennis courts in the parks on both the East Side and the West Side, for the use of those who cannot afford to belong to a club but who like to play tennis. Several public-spirited men are inter ested in the proposal, and it is the inten tion to take the subject up with the Park Board and have a number of courts constructed instead of swings. William Ladd. Alma Katz and C. F. Swigert are among those particularly interested in this plan. The Laurelhurst tract is considered as a desirable location for the courts on the East Side. On the West Side the park blocks may be used. Brandt Wickersham is expected to re tain his supremacy in Oregon tennis circles this season. Last season he was ranked first in the state and third best in the Northwest. Gorrlll, of the Irving ton Club, and Goss, of Multnomah, are both counted on to run a close second to Wickersham. Among the other cracks are Wells, the ex-Yale player; Wilder, Ewlng and Herdman. Among the women players, Mrs. Fouil Iioux. Miss Fording. Mrs. Northrup, Miss Schaefer and Miss Fox, will all be in the game again, and are expected to .keep up the records made last season. Miss Hotchkiss and Miss Ryan, of Cali fornia, will be here for the state tourna ment, and it is also expected that the International champion. Miss May Sutton, will be on hand. A number of the San Francisco men players will also play in the Oregon tournament. Among the important Western tourna ments for the coming season are: Six Tourntimeiits Carded.

Considerable work has been done to ward getting them into playable con- dltion. Three new practice pitches have been made this year and the match pitches enlarged and reseeded. Cutting and rolling the field is now beinf done and indications are that the ground will ' be better this year than ever before. Besides the usual annual fixtures, several matches with visiting teams will be played this season. A team from Butte, Mont., is expected here during the Rose Festival, as well as a mixed team of Victoria, Seattle and Tacoma cricketers, selected and capt ained by W. J. Clarke, of Seattle. A challenge has also been received from the Multnomah Club. Matches have also been arranged with several California clubs and a Portland team goes to San Francisco in September, when the tournament will be played. The services of Coppinger, the Lan cashire professional, as coach have been secured again for this season, and Mr. Fenwick has been re-elected captain. In the personnel of officers for the ensuing year few changes are noted. Charles Blakely is again president, Messrs. W. G. Smith, Paul Henderson ttons as vice-presidents. George Ship treasurer, and J. C Cummlng, as sec I 1-" 1 ) r I'-'l "to&Px m 4 i h - f I i F'l and A. M. Crocker retain their posi ley, as vice-captain; H. P. Phin, as retary have been re-elected. FIRST GAME TO U. OF 0. WHITMAX OBTAINS IiKAD BUT BLOWS UP IX EIGHTH. Borleske and Clarke, Football Heroes of Last Kali, Are Oppos ing Captains and Also Stars. TJXIVERSITT OF OREGON, Eugene, Or., March 26. (Special.) With two out in the eighth inning and the score 1 to 0 against them, Oregon won the first intercollegiate baseball game of the season against Whitman College here to day when the throw of Clarke's sharp infield tap was poorly handled by First Baseman Shubert, allowing two men to score. Iobie, next to bat, laced a hot drive to deep center for two bases, send ing two more Oregon men across the plats. The final score was, Oregon 4, Whitman 1. For six Innings the game was a pitchers' battle between Henkel, the big Oregon southpaw, and Borleske. of Whit man. In the seventh the Oregons tem porarily blew up when Borleske hit safe, went to third on a mix-up in handling Stuth's sacrifice and scored a moment later on Henkel's wild toss to first. With nobody out. the infield settled down and caught 9tuth napping between third and home. The next two batters were easy outs. By a peculiar coincidence Dudley Clarke and Vincent Borleske, the two Paclflo Coast players given honorable mention by Walker Camp on the all American football team last Fall, were captains of the opposing teams and were the individual stars of the day. In four trips to the bat Clarke smashed out three hits and scored one run. Borleske struck out eight men, made-Whitman's only run and fielded his position in splendid style. In the field Chandler and VanMarter, of Oregon, and Cox, of Whitman, made pret ty running catches.- Oregon outluckcd the Whitman lads throughout. The same teams will play again Mon day. .

'HOODOO' SPOT GETS AUTO Accidents Numerous on Steep Hill In New Kochelle. NEW ROCHELLE, N. Y., March 25. Coming down Drake avenue at a lively speed, a big touring car containing two men and two women struck the trolley rails, skidded and turned a complete somersault. The two women in the car were injured, but the men escaped with a shaking up. As the car went over, Mr. Miller and the chauffeur were thrown clear of the machine, but the two women were caught under it. Neither door could be got open, and the front window of the car had to be broken in order to get the women out.' One of them was severely cut about the head by glass, and the other ap peared to have sustained some internal injury. The corner where the mishap oc curred is known as the "hoodoo" corner, owing to the many accidents which have occurred there. Three trolley cars have been derailed there and a num ber of automobiles have been upset and their occupants injured, some of them seriously. The hill is steep and the ca rails are high, and an automo bile traveling fast and striking the rails or making a'too sudden turn off the rails is very apt to upset at this point in the road. French lights are the best along the shores, say the navigators. They are posted low. close to the waterline, and so do not mislead like the Italian pharos perched high above the sea.

Honors tialnetJ by Only Single Point, Score 6 8 to 6 7 Coach Gloomy About Outlok. UNIVERSITY OP OREGON. Eugene, Or., March 26. (Special.) By the nar row margin of a single point the husky young athletes of the sophomore class today made good a challenge by the athletes .of all the other classes In college combined, defeating them in an exciting track meet on McArthur Field by 68 to 67. Hawkins, Johns, McDaniels and Taylor were the stars of the day. The struggle waged so close that when "Chuck" Taylor, a Junior and captain of the football team, tied In the broad Jump with Hawkins, a soph omore, the whole meet was tied hard and fast. Another jump was " agreed upon and the sophomore won by a few inches, giving his class the victory. The meet was disappointing in its failure to reveal much promising ma terial for the varsity track team from among the freshmen. For this reason Trainer "Bill" Hayward is unusually gloomy about Oregon's track pros pects for the coming season. With the lossof Oliver Huston, the clever sprinter, and other stars of last year, there are many vacancies on the team to fill, but thus far Hayward has not found anyone to fill them. The first intercollegiate meet of the season is less than a month away, and the vet eran trainer is wearing a worried look these days that won't come . off. There have been other times during the four years Hayward has been here, however, when things looked al most equally black and the students are counting on him again to perform the impossible by developing a win ning team out of nothing.

Planned on the model of an old-world English rose garden, Olympla for the ten days of the International Horse Show in June will present a spectacle beautiful in the extreme. At one end of the vast area there will be a 70-foot scene depicting Lowther Castle, the residence of Lord Lonsdale, the president of the horse show, with its beautiful grounds and surrounding country. In front of this scene will be set the bandstand, mod eled on an old Roman temple. This year's show, which will be held from June 6 to 16, gives every prom ise of being another huge success.
