Portland' bowling population hs

men from Spokune, Hurry Ul.rey una

and Is credited with severs! high scores
made on ths Spokane alleys. The two
have rolled as n trim both hero r.nu
at Spokane, and have done enouerh
smashing to show that they brought
thtlr ability with them.
Both will enter the City Eowling
League, but their team has not been
selected. They have been bowling with
the temporary orfrnr lzatlcn of the Ore
gon Alley five. This may be entered
In the league and if so the opposition
bowlers will have a warm time of it,
as the personnel of the quintet is in
keeping with the caliber of Abies and
Gilroy.
A woman bowling champion, who
has every chance of making some of
the men look to their laurels, has made
her appearance at the Saratoga Alleys.
Mrs. Edward nice is her name. She is
not new at the game, but she is new as
a star.
She keeps to the ten-pin alleys, which
makes her work even more remark
able, Usually her sex confines itself
to the skid upon which the small pins
are set.
"She Is one of the most remarkable
women bowlers we have had in Port
land." says Manager Venatore, of the
Saratoga Alleys. "There has been but
one woman who could approach her,
and that was Mrs. Allen Rauch. How
ever, the latter has left the city and
Mrs. Pike may claim the women's
rhampionshlp without fear of serious
opposition."
It is not a case of amateur's luck
with Mrs. Pike that she has rolled an
average of 145 for the few weeks of
the season.
She knows all about shooting curves
and getting Just the right amount of
spin and the rest of the technique to
bring the pins down in bunches. Like
every good bowler she has her favor
ite ebony or teak and can talk for
hours on the merits of this or that
ball.
The leagues, which will start Octo
ber 1, will have an abundance of en
thusiasm. The Class A League may be
limited to eight teams, but the others
will take care of all comers. The
Commercial or Class B League will
undoubtedly have as many as 16 teams,
and may have many more.
The beginners, or Class C League,
tlso promises to be plentifully supplied
with bowling teams from the office
forces of many of the business houses
of the city. Several lodges have be
come interested in the game and their
teams will have representation in this
organization.
One of the first teams to organize
will be a women's organization of those
who bowl at the Saratoga Alleys. One
will be organized at about the same
time that the City League starts, and
while the husbands are scattering
things on the league alleys their wives
will have their own kind of a time on
the duck pin slides.

R. GRUMAX IX MOXEV GAME
Klrst Professional Apearance to Be
Made Friday Xlglit.
Ralph Gruman, the former Portland
125-pound amateur ring- star, will make
nis nrsi protessiocal appearance Fri
day night at the Dreamland Rink in
j-an t ranciseo, accorains to his brother
S. H. Gcuman, who returned recent'v
from the South, where he went to see
wnat r.ls brother was doing.
Gruman is under the management of
Ed Wilson, a manager who is credited
with some wisdom because of long
standing in tne game.
uruman is a weu-aeveioped lad now
and is. In the best of physical trim. He
went South several months ago with
xne intention of breaking into the
money game. It was announced that
he would appear at once, but It was
later decided to give him a month or
two to practice with the San Francisco
boys so that he would not be a pure
novice when he appeared.
He has been sparring with Willie
Ritchie since then and learned a lot
from him.
He knew little about infighting, one
of the prerequisites in the southern
rings, and has been taking lessons
from Jimmy Carroll, the bov who will
soon be matched with Eddie Camel.
His brother in Portland is acting as
adviser and has a long list of battles
cut out for him. He is more than con
fident that within a vmr pinh -n-m
at the top of the list.
Much has been said concerning th
earning power of fighters, but here 1
one who finds it both profitable and
healthful to work a month In the open
each Fall. Bud Anderson, the Van
couver, Wash., lightweight, has been
n the yards near Salem nearly all
the past month, during which time h
has made upwards of $5 a day.
Bud is an expert hoppicker and can
pull 500 pounds off the vines any day
without exerting himself. He received
cent a pound.
'Hoppicking is one way to have, a
frood vacation," said Bud. "It did me
lot of good and I think I am like any
one else in one respect in that I will
be able to put the $150 which I got
to good advantage.
"Some of the other men In my game
could profit by taking the hopyard
cure Instead of the mountain spring
resort. 1 know that I am benefited as
much as any of them that have spent
the Summer around the watering
places.
Bud had several friends in the same
camp and an impromptu boxing club
kept the men busy after picking hours.
He has been working pretty hard of
late and has not the slightest fear of
trouble from his recent appendicitis
operation.

to be taken most seriously, the tri
being Pelkey, legal title holder,
Palzer and Gunboat Smith. '
Pelkey is somewhtt popular in th
Western states, but has little Etandin
in the East. Gunboat Smith has h
biggest following in the East, while
in San Francisco he is called a "dub.
Palzer is the middle man, and has
following up and down the Mississippi
Valley which believes him the cream
of them all.
Eastern fans are quite confident that
Gunboat's matcnes with Palzer an
l'elkey are mere formality and mean
only so much coin in Smith s pocke
for, despite the fact that he is seldom
applauded, he is a good drawir card.
Smith has the endurance and is fair
ly fast, even though he derives th
name "Gunboat' from the size of hi
feet. However, he cannot land hi
punch.
He has an immense swing which, if
only properly aimed and held to th
mark, would give him a chance against
any of them. He has been in the gam
for some time now and still shows lit
tie improvement in that respect.
His endurance is his strong point
Flynn and Willard have taken gffod
cracks at his chin and, although it was
plainly evident that Smith felt their
force, they could not put him down.

INTERCLUB LEAGUE URGED
Intercollegiate Basketball Rules to
Be Adopted Contests With Turn
ers, Y. M. C. A. and School
Gymnasiums Are Proposed.
J. Lee Thompson has been in the
place recently resigned by Robert
Krohn, the directorship of athletics at
Multnomah Club, Just one week but
in that time has shown an aptitude and
Interest In his work which will make
him a popular Instructor with all mem
bers of the club.
He has many new ideas which will
be brought out as the Winter pro
gresses. Some of these nave been
brought Into play with the Juniors and
are taking well.
Mr. Thompson will soon have the
basketball teams on the floor work
ing for a city basketball league on the
order of that which usually makes its
appearance here in Winter.
He will urge the adoption of the in
tercolleglate rules instead of the Amer
ican Amateur Association rules as it
makes too much difference for the
ocal teams to change the style of play-
ng each time one of the college quints
s met.
Mr. Thompson has organized a wo
men's fencing class which, Judging from
the first turnouts, promises to become
popular. Eight answered the first an
nouncement ana they haye guaranteed
that their next appearance will not be
alone.
The new instructor will also urge
the holding of interclub gymnastic con-
ests. His plan Is to have the Turn-
rs, the y. M. C. A. and the school gym-
asiums get up teams of their crack
apparatus performers and send them
to general conclaves of the city's clubs.
" This, he figures, would be .one meth
od of making gymnasium work more
popular than it is.
The daily business men's classes have
gained a strong foothold and with the
establishment of a restaurant and a
noon class for men, more of the seniors
will be brought to the clubhouse.
"I hardly expect to fall Into the
steps of Mr. Krohn at once. At every
turn I am met with the thoroughness
of his methods. It is easy to take up
the work of a predecessor when it was
not done properly, but it is somewhat
more of a task when the work was
left in the shape I found It." said Mr.
Thompson.

Blows to Body Fail to Feaze Boxer
Who Underwent Operation.
Bud Anderson, lightweight title as
pirant, was at home to his friends Fri
day night in hs Vancouver training
quarters; and delighted the 100 fol
lowers who crowded Into the small
space with 15 fast rounds fought with
the leading boxers of Vancouver.
It brought out two facts, that Bud
is able to take a lot of touching up
despite the recent operation, and that
he Is getting faster every day.
Time and again the man put low by
CroES laid himselfe open to awful
straights and swings to the stomach on
the part of his opponents.
The place of operation was hit. It
was not bravado but merely taking
punishment which would come to him
in a real battle. Such men as Soldier
Bonnie, runner-up in the Pendleton
championship heavyweight list, took
swings at him through three rounds of
two minutes,, but after the long work
in the rather close place Bud was not
in the least feazed.
One of the opponents, was Meagher,
the mute instructor of the Washington
School for the Deaf. Meagher has ben
tne star of many an amateur bout and
accordingly went Into the match with
Bud with vengeance. He would stand
off, aim and land some heavy ones,
but was not a match for Bud.
The Anderson family was also rep
resented as Bud's opponent. Fred went
three fast rounds with his famous
bfother and got more"than any of the
in return, as Bud showed him little
mercy.
One of the stars was Clarence An
derson, a big heavyweight, who showed
extreme cleverness in taking care of
himself both in a match against Bud

WOLGAST HAS EXCUSE XOW
Gloves Worn in Azevedo Match
Found to Weigh Six Ounces.
OAKLAND. Cal.. Sept. 20. (Special.)
The fans who saw Ad Wolgast and
Joe Azevedo box in Oakland are still
discussing the size of the gloves worn
by the boxers, "and many of Wolgast's
friends insist that the gloves' weighed
no less than eight ounces, or three
ounces above the regulation type called
for In modern bouts.
Sol Levinson, the man who manu
factured the gloves, says they weighed
six ounces, and when he was asked
why the gloves were heavier than thb
regulation weight called for In the
rules, he declared that the Oakland
Wheelmen's Club ordered six-ounce
gloves, and that he had nothing to do
but to fill the order.
Levinson explained that recent ring
Injuries probably moved the Oakland
Wheelmen's Club to demand the larger
gloves. Whf n Wolgast's friends learned
that the gloves were one ounce heavier
than the regulation boxing gloves tney
made a roar, and declared that the ex

what kept Wolgast from winning.

Bishop In Tacoma Xews Confirms
Pelkey's "Confession."
TACOMA, Sept. 20. (Special.) "Th
Arthur Pelkey-Tominy Burns wrangl
is being talked of a lot by local sport
ing men who are familiar with the
ex-heavyweight champion's method
doing business. It is the impressio
among a great many that Pelkey told
the truth about Burns holding out his
money, agreeing to sell him a dress
suit for $37 cost price and later
making the boxer pay $85 for it, and
pulling off other similar stunts for
which he has made himself famous.
Tacomans know Burns to be the
original tight wad when it comes to
checking up. They recall how he made
a trip all the way to Australia to force
Jack Lester to "cough up a portion
of his earnings, and also how he threw
the hooks into Larry McKenna, who
used to manage him when Tommy was
boxing around Tacoma. Larry himself
has often told stories how Tommy was
everything that was lovely until it
came to cutting up the money. Then
he took a sudden dislike to McKenna
and "run out with the plunder.
Pelkey, after confessing to Roscoe
Fawcett at Portland all about bis
troubles with Burns, has arrived at
Calgary, and after talking things over
with Tommy sends out a signed state
ment saj-ing that he was drunk when
he said those things; that Burns is his
best friend, and that he was never bet
ter satisfied In his life than he has
been under Tommy's management, etc.
Wouldn't that Jar you?
Riding on a train between Pendleton
and Portland, Jack King admitted to
the writer that Pelkey had told him
how Burns misused him, bearing out
to the letter every word that Roscoe
Fawcett published. Biddy Bishop in

which sparkled in the cold waters of
the Umpqua.
The deer were found higher up, but
numerous enough when the right spots
were stirred. The country's under
brush is becoming thicker every year,
and if the hunter is not acquainted
with the Douglas country through
long standing, linding the deer may
be a hard Job.
Dewey, of Portland, has been an
annual visitor to that country for so
many years that he has lost the count.
That may account for the number of
deer which he got and which he found
and did not get. He admits that others
not so well acquainted with the riddles
and haunts of the deer might have
more trouble than he had.
Killing of Cougar Accidental.
His cougar was an accident and
made him the hero of the section. Ills
party had been tola that they would
never meet anything of that kind on
the trails. Dewey was out early. Just
about a week ago. He was looking
for a likely place for deer, yet with
out any idea of giving chase, as thu
camp larder was well supplied.
He had gone anout two miles frorA

Ing in tho path ahead of him near a
dense copse which Dewey had picked
out as a probable location of deer.
The cougar had probably done tho
same, much to his expense.
He was on the ground nnd Dewey
let drive with his 25-35. He hit him
and with one leap the big animal
drove through the brush at the side
Dewey attempted to follow, but lost
the trail.
The next morning the chase was
taken up with a dog, and before noon
the big animal was seen crouching
against a log, evidently in bad shape.
One shot stretched him out.
E. D. Dewey got three of the nine
deer: J. A. Dewey, two; J. T. Over
ton, two; W. 11. Redfield, one, and Lon
Aytch, one.
"We could have shot manv more."
said E. D. Dewey. "The game was
plentiful on all sides, but we could not
have used any more had we shot it.
Deer Hard to I'lnd.
"Many of the hunters who say they
cannot find any of the game fail be
cause they can not use dogs. Just that
fact is making tho game more plenti

instincts and not those of the animal.
Ihe game wardens of the country
are doing good work in watching

could be seen a long way through the

"It is a fact that the former Inhab

stant burns, in a state which gave
the deer little chance to hide. Now it
is different. In the last ten years tho

Chehalls Sportsmen Unable to Keep

MONTESANO, Wash.. Sept 20.
(Special.) Chehalls County sportsmen
have enjoyed the past week killing
grouse, but it is said by hunters that
equally as many native pheasants have
been slain. This is due to inability
of hunters to distinguish the birds
after they have been flushed.
"The law is a failure as far as Che
halls County is concerned," said a well
known hunter, "and it is hoped that
the next Legislature will open the sea
son on grouse and pheasants on the
same day. With more than half a
dozen game wardens out, .ly a few
arrests have been made. Those killing
pheasants quickly pluck the birds and
cut the wings, feet and heads off.

NEW YORK. Sept. JO. (Special.)
There will be no bout between Gunboat

at Madison Square Garden, as long as
the New York State Athletic Commis

special meeting of the commissioners
here, Jim Buckley and Joe Woodman,
respective managers of Smith and

adopted last year prohibiting bouts
between white and negro pugilists be
rescinded. The commissioners refused
to change the rule.
