ANDERSON'S REAL
TEST IS AT
Vancouver Lightweight to Be
Rated as Near-Champion
or Down-and-Out Soon.
TROTT IS WORK HORSE
-Bud" Is Picked to Knock Out His
Opponent at Los Angeles Xext
Saturday in 13 Hounds Wol
gust Says He Has $175,000.
BY JAMES H. CASSELL.
"Bud" Anderson. the Vancouver
lightweight, will either be a champion
ship possibility or a title aspirant with
ambitions sadly mut'.iated a week from
today, for on Saturday afternoon he
will be put to the first real test of his
fistic career, meeting Sammy Trott, a
creditable Columbus. Ohio, performer,
before Southern California fans in the
Vernon arena.
Should the Northwestern lightweight
king administer a crushing defeat to
the Columbus upstart, who" paid his
own railroad expenses across the conti
nent to break into the ranks of the
"higher ups." he will be' well on the
highway to 'the throne, with Joe Man
dot, the New Orleans lad. his opponent
on St. Patrick's day. But should do
feat hover over his corner in that
Vernon ring, near-oblivion will claim
him until he hews his way back up
the ladder through the ranks of tho
lesser pugilistic lights.
"Bud." or Arthur J., ,as he was
christened, writes from Doyle's train
ing camp that he will knock out the
stocky Columbus man In ten rounds.
Dick Donand, his manager, says the
victory will be scored In the eighth or
ninth round. Portland and Medford
admirers of the Northwesterner fix the
end of the fray in Anderson's favor
at from 12 to 13 rounds.
it Anderson possesses any of the
dualities which go to make a boxing
champion, lie should knock out Xrotl
or at least outpoint htm so badly that
there will be no lingering doubts In
the mlnda of spectators as to his su
periority. Trott has boxed better men
than Anderson has met, including
Nelson, Young Saylor, Brock and
Brown, and has been in tun more
bouts, but he never has been rated
among the contenders for the title, and
apparently Is nothing more than a
strong, sawed-oft scrapper of the
Battling Nelson type, with a world ot
stamina, and other qualifications which
go to make him a good trial horse.
Anderson admits that he is not a
keen student of the McFarland school
of boxing. His strength lies, not In
long range boxing, but in wading in
close, standing up against an opponent,
and trusting to the efficacy of huse
fists and powerful arms, directed in up
percut Jolts, to end an encounter. Trott
evidently is a mixer of the same style.
The Vancouver boy will top his
stocky opponent by two and one-half
inches, and this should give him a
better opportunity for the uncorking
of tnose ambidextrous uppercuts.
If Trott can cover up for !0 rounds
he will evade a knockout. Otherwise
his trip to the Coast will be for naught,
at least so far as Willie Ritchie's
crown is- concerned. He must be a
tough boy for only twice has he been
knocked out. Knockout Brown turning
the last trick in eight rounds at
Cleveland on September 27, 1912, but
Anderson has the strength of a welter
weight and of many mlddleweights. and
should Trott forget his guard for an
instant Los Angeles fandom will be
talking of a new coming lightweight
king.
As for Anderson, his capacity for the
assimilation of punishment has never
been tested. He has never lost a fight
in the 42 he engaged in. Unquestion
ably he has been hit hard, particularly
when be was a novice, yet he says that
he has never been hit so hard that
he could tell after a fight where the
glove had been planted. Trott has lost
three tights, and 20 others have been
no-decision affairs.
As for punching ability, Anderson
has knocked out 26 oppouents; Trott
eight, and all of these in 1908 and 1909.
against the unknowns who infest the
lower rungs of the ladder. This surely
plves "Bud" a big edge on Trott and
one which will have much to do with
the fixing of the betting odds on the
engagement.
Anderson has never fought 20 rounds
and only once Indulged In a bout
scheduled to go that distance. He
stopped that affair in 17 rounds, knock
ing out Frankie Edwards at Klamath
Falls. He boxed Danny O'Brien IS
rounds to a draw, all other bouts be
ing 10 rounds or under. Trott has
been In three 20-round mixups and
several of the la-round period. This
may be used in Trotts favor, but
Anderson says he can step 20 rounds
as easilv as 10. and his condition at
the end'of his 10-round affairs won
Indicate that this Is no gross exag
geration. Just for fun, as long as a near-Portland
boy Is Involved, let's venture a
prediction a habit which has annihi
lated many a reputation that Ander
son knocks out Trott within 15
rounds.
Ad Wolgast. ex-llghtwelght champion,
who Is a Portland visitor in search of
rest, amusement and land, says thatat
a pinch he could scrape together $173.
000. He estimates Ills earnings, in
cluding batting, at close to the quar
ter million mark.
Ad's best winning, exclusive of the
gambling end. was K1.300 at Los
Angeles when he fought Joe Rivers on
July 4. He asked for a $15,000 guar
antee, but Promoter McCarey demurred,
so Ad paid Rivers, split with the
promoters, and pocketed $So00 addition
al as his share of the gate and mov-irg-plctures.
"I got $14,600 when I beat Owen
Moran. S10.000 each against Memsic.
Manuot and Bums. SS5U0 Bgainst One
Round Hogan in New York. $Si00
against La Grave, and $6600 for fight
ing Knockout Brown." enumerates the
Cadillac youth.
"I got $47j0 when I fought Nelson
and won the championship, which was
tiie biggest money I had received up
to that time, but before I was champion
I drew down good money for ten-round
kghis. including $;5oO for Nelson and
- for Memsic. When they gave
me $4iuO for fighting Powell in San
Francisco It looked like a million dol
lars to me."
Ad figures his betting gains at $40.
000, but does not like to talk about
tais phase of the game as he concedes
that betting is detrimental to the good
of the sport. He only lost one bet on
himself, and that was $3600 agatnst
Ritchie. This, however, is a far dif
ferent yarn from the one told about
losses augmenting the entire purse re
ceived on Thanksgiving day.
Vaudeville and burlesque shows

When Ad Is through with the ring,
and that may not be far oft if his wife
has anything to say in the matter, he
aspires to turn farmer. Much of his
wealth la in farm lands, wtth good
business and residence property in-

ter than to rule over a big stock and

Wolgast estimates the possessions of
Jim Jeffries. former heavyweight
champion, at half a million. When in
Los Angeles recently he heard Jeff re
ceive an offer of $750 an acre tor sev
eral hundred acres of land the big
chap had purchased for $50 an acre not
many years ago. The land Is desirable
suburban home property.
The Cadillac boy named Frank Klaus
as the best of the mlddleweights. He
has seen a number of them in action
and says that McGoorty is not strong
enough to stand off a man like Klaus,
Gibbons is too light. Papke can only
beat the suckers, and the .other chaps
do not look good enough. He has a
hearty disgust for the welterweights
and wilt not venture a choice as to the
best one in the weak division.

easy 38-to-17 victory over the Mult

last night on the Winged "M" floor.
From the very start of the game
the Portland men were outclassed.
Grover Cate. at center for the Corvallls
team, played a great game, and had
Keck, of the Multnomah team, who
played the same position, busy trying
to block his throws.
At the conclusion of the first half
the score stood 2 8 to 9 in favor of the
visitors. The basket throwing of Swan,
who made a majority of the baskets for
the victorious team, was another fea
ture of the game. G. Tripp also was a
star for the visitors. He brought cheer

Prospects of Multnomah Amateur
Athletic Club success in the Northwest
interclub boxing and wrestling league
toppled cellarward when the Winged
"M" squad was blanked by the Seattle
Athletic Club men Friday night. With
one-half of the season over Multnomah
Club has the unenviable record of three
victories against nine defeats, for a
percentage of .250.
wwftvr so far as th public is con
cerned, the season thus far has been
an overwhelming success, wim-inu.,
night's programme one of the best seen
here in years. Then, too, the real cnam-
pionshlp issues will oe aeciaea i
attle in May. when the athletes from
Vancouver, Spokane. Seattle, Portland
and other cities meet in the annual title
mitt-mat mills.
Multnomah Club won three in four
bouts'from Spokane at the first "smok
er" of the season, lost four to Vancou
ver and then came Friday's bill of un
precedented defeats. Vancouver ap
pears here on February 21 in the last
of the season's Northwest Interclub
meets in Portland.
Many warm discussions of the re
spective abilities of "Fireman" Knowl
ton and Clarence Rothaus, the light
weights who mixed so furiously Friday
night, were indulged in yesterday,
while Tommy Tracey registered a sec
ond objection to the decision naming
the Seattle man winner on the groundB
that Knowlton had the better of the
fourth and deciding round.
Knowlton at least held his own in
that final period, and probably had a
shade, but the affair should have been
awarded to Rothaus at the end of the
third round and Referee" Grant made
his decision accordingly, which is hard
ly following the letter of the rules, but
really an eminently fair method.
They are now talking about a re
turn match between the two, either at
the coming interclub meet at Seattle
or the Pacific Northwest Association
championships at Seattle later In the
season. Knowlton took off five pounds
in a day or two and declares that he
was not at his best, while Rothaus re
torts that he was not in shape himself,
was outweighed at least three pounds
by Knowlton. and further predicts a
terrific lacing for the fireman if they
meet again.
Overconfldence Is generally held to
have been responsible for the defeat
of Edgar Frank, the former 125-pound
Coast wrestling king. He had a de
cision over his stronger opponent and
would have earned another had he been
content with sticking on top of Runchle.
But instead of playing safe, which his
superior knowledge of the game per
mitted him to dd, he mixed with the
Seattle boy and was thrown.
Frank may not have been in the best
of trim, substituting for Clibborn on
short notice, but he is always In fair
shape from working out with the
wrestlers almost nightly at the club.
While he may decide to meet Runchie
again, he is making no effort to de
tract from the victory of the Seattle
youngster. ,
Pat Scott, the new boxing instructor
of the Seattle Club, remained over yes
terday with Rothaus, his lightweight.
The latter may be Induced to enter the
ten-round game at Seattle, if the box
ing people succeed In passing their

Idaho displayed a streak of form at
the beginning of the second half and
scored three consecutive baskets, but
Olson and Savage began working to

For Idaho, Soulen played the beet

ROCHESTER TO GET ELKS
Hotel Men Decide Not to Raise Rates
During Convention.
Hotel men at Rochester, N. Y., have
agreed to maintain normal rates and
the Elks' grand lodge convention there- -fore
will be held in that city next
July, as originally planned.
Thomas B. Mills, of Superior, Wis.,
grand exalted ruler, telegraphed C. C.
Bradley, exalted ruler of Portland
lodge, last night that contracts had
been signed and that Portland's Invi
tation to meet here again this year
could not be accepted. It Is believed
the eagerness of the Elks of Portland,
Chicago and other cities to entertain
the grand lodge forced Rochester hotel
men to reconsider their intention of
raising their rates.
Although the Portland Elks at no
time thought that their bid for the
1813 convention would be successful
they were ready and eager to repeat
their performance of last Summer, had
their offer been accepted.
