KELLY IN THREE EVENTS Wonderful AII-Around Man, Ed E. Morgan, Waj Back In '90s Has Marks Worthy of Great Per formers of Present Day. In the 22 years of its existence the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club has had enrolled among its standard-bear ers some of the most remarkable ath letes in the annals of sport. Yet, though it is quite some task to plaster the sobriquet "greatest athlete of them all" across the brow of any one of that fcorde of ever-changing" prodigies, Ed ward E. Morgan has been awarded the pre-eminence by Frank E. Watkins, himself a famous winged -I athlete. Morgan, who is thus classed as the greatest all-around star in the history of the blpr Portland organization, per formed for the scarle' and white in the seasons of 1894 to 1S99, inclusive He was a wonder on the traclc ano field, played half and full back on the Multnomah football eleven in 1894 caught and held down first base for the baseball team in 1894. 1896 and 1897 and was also a very clever boxer, al though not up to Joe Smith's caliber. Morgan's Marks Excellent. Champion Morgan's track and field records are excellent even for the present-day star, and. In the light of the progress made In track and field athletics within the past 18 years, most remarkable. They are as follows: 100-yard dash, 10 1-5 seconds: 220 yard dash. 23 seconds: 440-yard dash. 63 seconds; 120-yard high hurdles, 16 2-6 seconds: 220-yard hurdles, 26 sec onds; 16-pound hammer, 125 feet; 16 pound shot. 39 feet; broad jump, 20 ' feet: high Jump, 5 feet, 9 inches; pole vault. 10 feet, 6 inches: 8S0-yard run, 2 minutes, 12 seconds; mile run, 6 min utes, 2 seconds. Morgan was a Portland boy and . now living on Oakhllt farm In Yamhill County. "To my mind, Morgan was in a class by himself for all-around athletics. said Mr. Watkins yesterday, as he put the finishing- touches on a compua tion of the best records made by Mult nomah athletes since the organization of the club. "One of his greatest feats was defeating Patterscn, Coast hurdle champion. In a dual meet with the Olympic. Club, of San Francisco, on Multnomah Field. He took both events and later. In 1898. entered Stanford University, where he defeated such men as Cheek and Bakewell. "Morgan was 5 feet. It Inches tall and stripped only 160 pounds." Kerrigan's Feats Marvelous. Mr. Watkins characterizes the high jumping of Bert Kerrigan In 1905 as the most spectacular feat in club his tory. Kerrigan, although only 6 feet, 4 inches tall. high-Jumped 6 feet. 2 inches In 1896. and then, nine years later, at the Lewis r.nd Clark Fair, came back and leaped the bar at t feet, 1 hi Inches, nearly ten Inches higher than his head. He weighed only 119 pounds. A resume of past Multnomah athletic wlsardry uncovers vast stor--of In teresting facts and-f-h?sr""The great est Individual champions in the dif ferent events as compiled by Mr. Wat kins are as follows: 190-yard dash Dan Kelly, world's champion. Time. 9 3-5 seconds. 220-yard dash Dan Kelly and Oliver Huston. Time, 21 1-5 seconds. 440-yard dash Rube Williams. Time, 50 3-5 seconds. 880-yard run Ben Greenhaw. Time, 2:01 2-5.

Distmre. 155 feet 7 Inches. 56-ponnd weight Ed Flanagan. Dis tance. 80 feet 1 Inch. Javelin throw Bill Nell. Distance, 164 feet 7 inches Records Not Clnb Marks. "The above records were not all made under Multnomah colors, but the sta tistics represent the best marks made by athletes who competed for the club at various times." said Mr. Watkins. "One of the famous old-timer athletes was B'M Tallant," he added, surveying the tabulation. "As far back as 1S96 Bill defeated the Coat champion miler, Dave Brown, of the Olympic Club. In a dual meet, taking both the S80 and the mile, the latter !n 4:31 1-5. Tallant wa never pushed in the mile, and I believe he was a better man than Wal ter McC'ure. present Coast tltleholder at 4:t4 1-5." Tal'ant Is. In the cannery business at Astoria. Oliver Huston, the grent Oregon athlete, was another wonderful per former for the winged "M." Huston, who Is a Portland hoy. son of S. B. Huston, ran the l"0-yard dash five times In two weeks In 110 and every time the watches c'oked up ten sec onds flat. Art Fuller, now In San Francisco, did 10 1-5 consistently back In 1S4. 1SVS and 1S6. when the tracks wee much slower thsn tclay. Kellv. Srrl'hson. TTtwklrs. Bellsh. Hceter. Greenhaw. Coyne. Moores.

MULTNCMAH CLUB TRACK AND FIELD STARS OF PAST AND WLNGED-M records. PRESENT WHO HDLD PRESENT CHAMPION" SCULLER TO TRAIN' Lncy Pocock, or British Isles Fame, Xow at University of Washington. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON'. Se attle. Feb. 8. (Special.) Miss Lucy - ocock. cnamplon sculler of the Rritlsh Isles, is now In charsre of the nilinarv lepartment of the varsity boat club at me university of Wash neton. and nr. ly this Spring will commence her an nual training to compete for the grand :rize or 00. which to hold she must 'in the championship two years In succession. Miss Pocock Is a 'sister of the well- "tnown scull builders, who are now enovatlnsr and constructing new boats 'or the Washington crew. Interscliolastic Notes ALFRED SCHILT, who played a sen sational game at third base for he Lincoln baseball team last year, will be back in uniform next season. Ted Graves, former Spokane High School athlete, has joined the Hill Mili tary Academy and will try and make he track team. Os Day will try and represent Hill in the Portland inter. cholastic track iueet In the 440-yaril dash. Dwlght Woodworth. former star Lin coln track man. who holds the loca". tnterscholastlc high jump record, left for Corvallls Tuesday, where he will attend the Oregon Agricultural Col lege. It Is the intention of Woodworth to try and make the "Aggie" track team this year. . h-' l U xf," WC1- ; -'4 The Hill Military losos one of Its best athletes In D. G. Gordon, who graduated from the school last term. During the time Gordon was at school ie received six letters, three for foot ball, two for baseball and one for rack. Besides being a good athlete he s a cue expert of ability. In a hanai- ap pool tournament held at the acad- my recently he carried off the gold medal donated by Joseph Hill to the .vinner. Gordon will leave aext week or Grand Junction, Colo., where he will oin his relatives. It looks as though Vincent Borleske will not only coach the Lincoln foot ball and basketball teams but also the track and field team and the baseball alne next season. Borleske had great ucccss coaching the Lincoln football earn last year and judging from the howlne that is being made by his basketball team that quintet stands a ood chance of winning the 1913 lnter- icholastlc championship. Skin" Campion, the star Jefferson football player, may return to Jeffer- on this coming term. Should Campion decide upon returning to school he will n all probability do most of the pitchi ng on the Jefferson baseball team. The pitching staff of the 1913 Lin- oln baseball team should be very strong. Cook, who halls from Spo kane, and who Is now a student at Lincoln, has a record as being a good wirier. He was offered a try-out with the Spokane baseball club a few sea sons ago by Joe Conn,' but wanted to remain an amateur. 'I believe that Clarence Hendrick- son, of the Jefferson basketball team. s one of the best guards In the league,'' aid A. M. Grilley, official referee of he Portland Interscholastic Basketball League, following the game between the Jefferson and Lincoln teams last Friday. "He played a great game against Lincoln." The crucial basketball game of the Portland Interscholastic League will be ayed Friday, when the Lincoln and Washington basKetball quintets will battle. The winner of this game can be looked upon as the quintet that wilj win the 1913 championship, save for some unexpected defeat. The Columbia University and the Portland Academy basketball teams 111 play Tuesday. The game probable ill be played on the Portland Acad emy floor. The Portland Interscholastic soccer football schedule calls for a game be tween the Washington eleven, present leader of the league, and the Jefferson team, which the runner-up, to be played Thursday on the Jefferson grounds.

"I look for more than 100 trap shoot ers from all parts of the Northwest as well as California to compete for hon ors." said J. E. Cullison. president of the club, yesterday. "The fact that the Interstate Trap Shooting Association lias co-operated with our club in giving cash prizes ag gregating more than 1300 should draw a number of crack shots to Portland. - "Other Northwest trap-shooting tour- natr.ents which will be held shortly fol lowing our meet is another reason for thinking that a large number of men will take part In the Portland shoot.- On May 11, the day previous to the opening of the tournament, tne lienton grounds will be open to all shooters for holding practice. It was decided by the club directors to have the grounds open daily, begin ning today. ... M. Abrahams, governor of the Port land revolver team, is arranging for a match with the Tacoma revolver ex perts, to be held following the closing of the United States Revolver Associa tion League, which will close in the near future Should the match be ar ranged it will be held out of doors. -A number of members of the Port land police department have organ ized a- revolver tournament among themselves. . Members of the second night relief hold dally shoots. TRACK MEN ARK OT ACTIVE Standing or Sport, at Washington University Uncertain. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON, Seattle, Wash, Feb. 7. (Special.) The absence of Ira Courtney, captain-elect of the University of Washington track team, and the apparent lack of interest nere places the cinder sport in rather an uncertain standing this year. There are many in school this year who have won their letters, but it Is not certain as yet who will present themselves at the first turnout. .Track Coach Dr. D. C. Hall expects to issue a call early this month for turnouts, to prepare for the Spring events. Under the dfrection of Jimmie Clark, formerly the star varsity twirler, ini tial baseball turnouts will be made goon, with prospects for a team .which will measure favorably with that of 1912. There will be several vacancies, but they probably will be filled by men who have formerly won distinction on the diamond. The prospect of a tour of the Orient in reciprocation for the campaigns made by the colleges of Japan, is fa vorable, and interest in baseball this , year will be unusually keen, especially I under graduate coaching.

The Oregon state championship bowling tournament will be held in Portland early in March, according to the announcement of J, W. Blaney, who will open a set of alleys in Oregon hall between February 20 and March 1. With Vancouver, B. C, planning to stage a Nortuwest tenpin affair in March, B'.aney expected to postpone the state title ttruggles until April, but the British Columbians switched from jlarch to April, and the Oregon com petitions will precede those of the Canadians. The matter of prizes has not been de cided, but Mr. Bianey says that the of ferings will be attractive enousrh to draw the best boulers of the state to Portland. While Jie tourney is styled Oregon State," isPwill be open to the howle.-s of the Northwest. Teams, from Vancouver and oiher Washington towns are expected to compete with the Oregon cracks. The Dwight-Edwards five assumed the leadership In the City League last week, but to do this It was necessary for Kruse's boys to shatter two team records of the season in a strenuous match against the Telegraphers. ' The new leaders took three straight games from the Telegraphers, hanging up a new mark of 3072 for three games and 1047 for one, while the Meier & Frank squad lost one game to the Weonas.
