Roth Fownes and Wood were warmly roncratulated as they strolled bark to the clubs on the slopes of which Presi dent Herbert Jacques, of the United States Chi If Association, handed them their awards. Gold Medal Awarded. Mr. Jacques handed the gold medal to Fownes as the best player of the year and the silver medal to Wood as the best player of the bunch from Chicago. Both men were more or less erratic In their driving during the mornlnif round, a stiff northeaster contributing to the difficulty of keeping on the course. After halving the first two holes Fownes lost the third by the short approach and was one down. He won It back on the next hole, however, despite a putted drive as Wood over approached on the green. .Wood sliced two drives out of bounds at the fifth tee and trapped his third, then gave up the hole.

Wood used his clubs badly again on the 14th hole and was Ave down. Wood sliced his next drive and made a poor second and Fownes was six up when they reached the 16th tee. They halved this hole.

Hopes Much of Kaufman. BY JAMES J. CORBETT. JLW lORK. Sept. 17. (Special.) Only 10 days ago two Important heavy weight contests were held In this coun try in which were engaged as pslnclpals tour men who are regarded as the run ners up to the championship, and ye in the opinion of the majority of, ex perts. neither of the victors Is of i iui wuuiq emme nim to a go with the champion. One of the bouts the Kaufman-Lang contest was an even affair, and while the popular ver ctirt was' given to the Californlan, It Is' the opinion of a great many good students of the game that Lang made a wonderful showing, all things consid ered, and that had the bout been longer one the Australian might have been returned the victor. It must be remembered that whatever handicaps there were In, the match were all against Lang. The six-round thing is a new. one on the lorelgner, accus tomed as he has been to train for longer bouts and more for endurance than for speed. Then the fact that It was his first engagement In this -country and against one of the best and most pop. ular or the younger American boxers, did not help him and was bound to make him feel more or less nervous. I am not making excuses for Lang, but I believe in being fair and having been through the game myself can ap preciate Just about what Bill was up against. Lang Shows Great Promise. 1 may be accused of being prejudiced In favor of the Australian champion on account of having acted In an ad visory capacity during the match, but this Is not so. My reason for lending assistance to Lang is that he is one of the most promising white heavy weights in the business. Since the Reno affair I have taken a renewed Interest in the game because, like a great many other ardent admirers of boxing, I want to see a white man win back' the heavy weight championship of the world. in Lang I saw what I considered a championship possibility a white man who. with proper Jiandling, might de velop Into a great fighter, and qualify as a candidate for the highest honors in the game. I have carefully watched him work and regard him as a natural fighter.' His knowledge of the finer points of the science of boxing is lim ited, but this can be developed with practice and a little more experience. Delaney Greatest Trainer. Al Kaufman Is the top-notcher at pres ent among tne white American heavy- weights and a longer battle between these men ought to determine which Is most worthy of trying to bring back the championship to the white race. Al is In competent hands, Billy Jjeianey, the gretet trainer In America, having him In charge, and if anyone can bring out hlf best surely Delaney can. I went to see one or the other win, and win decisively. jso that we can feel the .victor is the man SI - v .. ... I 1 GOOD i Everything about the ' magnificent new Heilig Theater is to be of the highest standard of ex cellence. Conductor Rosebrook, who will have charge of the music, stepped in to see the E i 1 e r s Baby Show yesterday, and finding a superb ; new entitled to the chance at the champion. I believe that in one of these men we have championship timber, and would like to see uiother match arranged for a longer contest. In which the superiority of either shall be demonstrated beyond question. Now, to get back to the general im pression that neither of these men i "classy" enough to give him a look-in with Johnson. I beg to differ with my friends who mould popular opinion through the sporting columns of the newspapers. The fact that Johnson is champion is what causes the great ma jority to look upon him as in a class1 by himself. There Is a wonderful magic about that word "champion" that blinds many-to everything but his best quali ties. We all go down to defeat In our turn. Fitzsimmons won from me, Jen beat Fits and finally the once' great boilermaker lay down his crown. Johnson Lucky Fighter. I am not seeking to take away any credit from a pugilist who has climbed from the bottom to the top, as has John son, and I believe Jack is a good man as champions go nowadays, but I do not look upon him as a really great fighter. Johnson, to my mind, is purely a de fensive fighter, and any good heavy weight not Inclined to force the battle, would have little or no trouble in stay ing in the ring with him for six or ten rounds, or even longer. If a man car ries the fight to Johnson, that is an other story. The champion has a good defense, and In close quarters can ad minister severe punishment to his op ponent, but that about lets him out. Jack shines In close quarters, and that's how he won the "title. All his best work Is done while his opponent Is rushing at him, or breaking out of a clinch. If up against a good man willing to wait for Johnson to force the fighting. I think the boutwould be over before the real fighting began. Far from being a great fighter, I think him a lucky one. Jack cannot be expected, in the nat ural order of things, to Improve he is now at his best. On the other hand. Lang and Kaufman are improving right along. and the Philadelphia bout showed that Kaufman Had absorbed a number of the champion's best stunts through his experience in Jack's train ing camp at Reno, which should stand him in good stead in a match with the colored man. So, cheer up boys, don't get discouraged. With the better man of these two young huskies to choose from there is still a chance for the white race. Langford Go Proves Nothing. The Langfofd-Jeanette go at Bos ton proved nothing except that one man could hand out a good licking and that his opponent could take it and till be on the Job. The referee says he gave the decision to Langford be cause he out-fought, out-punched and out-pointed Jeanette, but that the lat ter put up a great battle and was still dangerous at the end of the bout. He also says It would be hard to predict a winner in a finish fight. Either of these men might have a good chance with Johnson. However, my interest in colored boxers is confined at present to trying to find a white man capable of licking one of them the champion. As have repeatedly stated, I have no personal feeling against Johnson or any other colored boxer. It is simply a case of pride in my own race, and an honest feeling that we must have somewhere a white man capable of winning back the coveted champion ship of the world.

Sportsmen in Portland and vicinity look upon the recent rain as a boon, for they believe that as a result of the off-shore storm the game preserves will be liber ally populated with ducks, grouse and other wild fowl. Today will be marked by considerable shooting along the marshes of the Columbia River provid ing the forecast is correct. Several of the hunters who own game preserves along the streams near Port land have been advised that the ducks have been flying during the past' two or three days, and orders were issued Imme diately for the liberal feeding of the marshes and sloughs on which the shoot ing grounds are located. Imbued with the idea that they will have the pleasure of distributing choice morsels to their friends, several hundred sportsmen left last night for the preserves in the Wil lamette and Columbia River valleys, and this morning the crack of the shotgun should reverberate along these rivers for miles providing there is anything to shoot at. The duck shooting season opened offi cially on September 1. but the scarcity of birds has prevented anything like an exodus of hunters to the shooting grounds up to date. However, it was different last night, for many of the ambitious marksmen believe the rain to be a sure precursor of good duck shooting, and whether notified by their game keepers or not, a large number journeyed to sloughs to take chances. If anyone has a friend who went snoot ing last night he will do well to watch the returning trains and boats arriving from the hunting grounds tonight, for there Is Just a wee chance that a few birds may be killed, and a wild duck at this time of the year would not prove a bad morsel. Fandom at Random PORTLAND Increased her lead by trimming the poor old Senators in a double-header while the obstreperous Oaks were being mauled once more by the Angels. Vean Gregg was'sent to the rescue in the first game, but allowed the score to be tied. He had revenge In the sec ond, for he held the Senators to one lone hit. a a a As a result of yesterday's play Port land is now 15 instead of 6 points ahead of Oakland. Two more, games will be played against Sacramento this afternoon, after which the Beavers come home for the Anal stand of four weeks. One Willie Rapps was the savage swatsman in yesterday s matinee, for the former Texas Leaguer soaked out couple of healthy clouts Just when they were most needed. a a a Captain Perle Casey also lived up to his record as a pinch hitter, for the 'Moose" slammed the ball most oppor- Eilers Music House show windows.

Casey was also much In evi dence in the fielding iine. a The "Mysterious" Mr. Mitchell, of the San Francisco Club, once more essayed the task of pitching against the Vernon Club, and this time he was victor in u see-saw game. a a a Suspensions do not seem to bother Harry Wolverton, for he thought it merely meant his being kept out of the game.

Now perhaps Harry will take things more seriously. a a Down in the Southern League yes terday they played a game" of baseball in 32 minutes.

The Seals may do it. but if they get into the lead this year It will be because the Oaklanl Club lays down to them, and the Oaki have some chance themselves. a a a "Ping" Bndie is being heralded as the greatest hitter the Pacific Coast ever saw. That is, lie is so heralded by the San Francisco scribes, and all because he has made 26 home runs. They never slopped over that way about "Truck" Bagan, whose record Bodie has not yet tied. a a a , The Bay City scribblers admit that Eagan made more homers than has Bodie, but they blame It on the short fence at Tacoma. How about the homers Truck used to wallop at San Francisco, and Los Angeles, as well as right here in Portland? , a a a The Spokane Indians have cinched tha championship of the Northwestern League, and on Monday, September 26, Joe Conn says he is coming to Portland to meet the Beavers. According to Cohn, his team, with Jesse Baker pitch ing, will surely wallop McCrcdie's cohorts. The Spokane bunch would be mighty sore if McCredie shoved Vean Gregg at them and the big fellow was in trim. for he would make that bunch of busti ers look like 30 cents in cafeteria change.
