awarded the decision at the end of
the third:
In the 15S-pound boxing, Miebus, the
original Multnomah entrant, couldn't
make the weight, and Madden took his
place, winning handily from William
son in three rounds.
Those of the Multnomah Club who
have never yet witnessed a fencing
tourney, and there are many who will
admit never having seen that most
ancient of arts and sports, will have
tho opportunity of becoming that much
wiser on Thursday night, when Mult
nomah's first fencing championships
will be decided. '
The way the swordsmen, men and
women, have taken to the art Is en
couraging to Director J. Lee Thomp
son. Whatever the reason of Its popu
larity, the sport of the romantic novel
and the Shakespeare drama Is now
having the best days of its life at
Multnomah Club.
Thompson is a. past master of the
game and. though most of his pupils
were entirely new at the game, he has
developed enough stars In the past six
months to furnish some thrills for the
most ardent admirer. Describing the
game, Mr. Thompson says:
"The object of the game is to score a
touch upon the opponent (which means
reaching any part of the body above
the waistline and below tne collar line.
arms excepted, with the button of your
foil), at the same time protecting your
self.
To do this requires a great deal of
Judgment, as a man on guard is pro
tected In the direct line of attack and
you must deceive him absolutely to be
successful, leading him to suppose that
you will attack him In one line when
in reality you intend to strike through
another. This In Itself requires cool
ness, Belf-composure and at the same
time decision, accuracy, firmness of
hand, keenness of eye, speed and agll
Ity, in thrust, lunge and recovery. To
perform these properly, the knees must
be bent, with the body poised. Its
weight resting equally on each foot.
so that an advance or retreat may be
mads with equal facility. The left
leg, without rigidity, should be like a.
coiled spring, ready on the instant to
extend to Its fullest extent In the lunge.
"But one may say: 'The days for
duelling are past, so of what use is the
sword"
"True, the days of chivalry are past
the sword no longer upholds the honor
of family or . name, its place being
taken by the Police Court and the legal

of strenuous games we almost seek In

while being generally beneficial does
not dilate the heart, distend the lungs

Schwengers Sees Canadian Chance.
VICTORIA. B. C. Feb. 14. Advocat
ing a Canadian entry for the coming
Davis cup games, Bernard P. Schwen
gers. the greatest of Canadian tennis
players, has written a letter to T. H.
Hall, of Toronto, secretary of the Ca
nadian Lawn Tennis Association, in
which he suggests that steps be taken
at once to prepare for the tennis tour
ney. Mr. Schwengers, who was one of
the team that last year reached the
finals in the Davis cup trials, says that
Canada has a grand chance to repeat
her successes of last Summer when the
team proved itself one of the best en
tered in the series.

SPOKANE. Feb. 14. Spokane Ath
letic Club athletes won the interclub
boxing and wreBtllng smoker held here
Friday night by taking both wrestlln
matches and one of tho two boxing
bouts.
In the 123-pound wrestling, Frank

for Spokane, won two falls from Carey,
of Multnomah, In spite of the handi
cap of eight pounds in weight. The
first fall came In 23 seconds and the
second In 1M minutes.
Bradt, of Multnomah, was pitted
against Burna In the 158-pound wrest
ling, and lost both falls, the first on
in 7 minutes and the second in 20
seconds.
There was considerable dissatisfac
tion in the Montpier-Ellingston bout
at 125 pounds. At the end of ' three
rounds the crowd yelled for Montpiei,
the Multnomah entrant, and hooted
when the Judges called for another
round. This extra session was Elling

SPOKANE. Wash., Feb. 14. (Spe
cial.) The opening games of the open
Northwest championship IS. 2 balkllne
billiard tournament will be played Mon
day, February 23, in the Imperial par
lors, the dates for contests having
been arranged today by A. G. Clarke
in a long-distance conversation with
Charles Hulen, or ' Seattle, and L. E.
Corby, of Tacoma,
According to the plan outlined by
Mr. Clarke, the 10 matches will be
played In one week. This will neces
sitate four afternoon games.
Mr. Hulen. of the- Brown & Hulen
parlors, of Seattle, and Mr. Corby, of
the coroy parlors, will arrive In Spo
kane February 22, but will not be
asked to play ' until Tuesday or
Wednesday. Thus they may become
familiar with the Imperial tables.
Hulen and Corby are recognized as
the best players in . their respective
cities, having repeatedly finished first
in city tourneys.
M. C. Walgren, the Everett repre
sentative, is fairly well known here,
having played match games with sev
eral of tho best local nlavers. Tn thesn
matches he has consistently averaged
better than six to the Inning. At the
present time he is studying here and
is familiar with the Imperial tables.
V. R. Selbert. of the Imperial parlors,
and Otto Neidorfer, of the Spokane
Athletic Club, will represent Spokane
In the first block of matches. Both
are experienced In tournament play
and are expected to win a majority of
the matches for bpokane. The one
having the best standing at the end
of the 10 games here will represent
Spokane in the matches played at
Tacoma, Seattle and Everett.
All games will be played for 400
points, it being figured that luck will
have a smaller bearing on the out
come in games of this length. The
schedule calls for each player entered
to meet every other player one time.

Incoming Class Adds One ' or Two
Possible Point-Winners to Squad,
but Does Not Make Good
Ioss of Others.
L-NTVERSITT OF OREGON. Eugene,
Feb. 14. SpeclL) Oregon's track
team bears no closer resemblance to a
championship aggregatioji than six
weeks ago. when Trainer Hayward de
elared Its chances against the other con
ference teams were negligible. . It is
without a captain, half a dozen stars
and has received little attention from
its coach.
The incoming February class has
added one or two possible point-winners
to the squad, but it has not made
good the loss of Windnagle, McClure,
Huggins. Nelll. Kay and other departed
stars. Kay was chosen this year's cap
tain, and he returned a few days this
week io announce that rheumatism has
curtailed his athletic career.
Oregon, as usual, will be represented
In the annual Columbia meet, to be held
in the early part of April. The team
will enter this first competition sadly
In need of conditioning.
Since Oliver Huston turned in his
spikes in 1909. Oregon has been with
out a 10-sccond sprinter, and apparent
ly this spot will remain weak during
the coming season. Captain-elect Kay,
when right, was the equal of any con
ference athlete in the 220-yard dash.
Floy leu Getting; In Condition.
Tommy Boylen, who has vacillated
among almost all tne events on tne
programme during his two seasons
here, is a dependable sprinter. Boylen
battered his legs in conference basket
ball last year and was handicapped by
his injuries throughout the track- sea
son. This season he has kept out of
basketball on Hayward's advice and
ought to be prime for the cinder trail.
Another leftover with sprinting pos
sibilities is Kaiser, from Salem," who
did not seem to strike his high school
stride last season.
Joe Sheehan, from Oregon City, is
the most likely of a rather Indifferent
layout of freshman short-distance runners.
The return of McConell. a veteran
of two seasons, for the second semes
ter, has strengthened Hayward's mid
dle-distance section. McConell was a
consistent point-taker last season. He
has negotiated tho half in two min
utes flat, and shadowed Windnagle
closely in the quarter. OC the new
men. Martin Nelson, of Washington
High School and Astoria, is the most
promising.
Loneks . Heralded Am "Kind."
Fitzgibbon, from Jefferson, beat
big field in tho 440-dash in the Colum
bia meet last year. With no reputa
tion. but with the earmarks of i
middle-distance champion. Loucks, ;
rangy junior who attended Reed Col
lege last year, is heralded as the "find"
of the year. He has already stepped
the quarter in 52 seconds.
Payne and Langley, two freshmen,
the former from Athena and the latter
from Jefferson, still look best of the
claimants to the prestige of Wind
nagle, McClure and Huggins in the
distances'.
The annual cross-country run over
a course of three and one-quarter
miles, usuallv held in the Fall, will
take place this year in the early part
of March.
Fee, who was featured as a hurdler
in the meet with Washington last year,
is cast for the same role again. Mc
Conell. Boylen and Bryant have all
tried the obstacles and are again avail
able. Fee is likewise the leading can
didate for the high jump and pole
vault.
Johnny Parsons had an excellent
season last year in his specialty, the
broad jump, passing the 22-foot mark
repeatedly.
Cook, in the shot-put and javelin
Heidenrich, in the shot-put and dis
cus, and Grout, in the shot-put, are the
best of the surviving weight-throwers.

Stories About Stars
By Billy Evans.
ECAUSE of his great ability as a
getting a big lead when he reached
first base, pitchers watch Cobb closely
when lie arrives at the initial station.
They realize that his lead must be
kept down to the smallest margin, If
the catcher is to have a chance to
throw him out at second. It is also
custom with pitchers to take several
throws to first when Cobb occupies
that bag, so as to tire him slightly, by
forcing him to return to avoid bein
touched out. Quite often he is forced
to slide back, which tends to minimize
his speed all the more, when he finally
makes the break for second.

New York Vacfat Club Syndicate' Hunt
Well Indrr Way and Almost
Rendy to Launch Shortly.
XEW YORK. Feb. 14. (Special.) The
keels of the three cup defenders have
been cast, and now setting up work
has started. On the Herreshof f yacht
building for the New York Yacht Club
syndicate this work is well along and
everything is going so smoothly that
Nat Harreshoff has gone to Bermuda
to rest and build up. He has taken his
little knockabout with him and will
spend most of his time sailing about
the islands. Tn his absence his son.
Sidney, will look after the building of
the yacht and by the time Captain
Herreshoff returns the yacht will be
plated and almost ready for launching.
The Herreshoff boat is not to have a
centerboard. When- originally designed.
It was planned to give the yacht a
centerboard, but after the lead keel
had been cast and the slot made for
the centerboard Captain Herreshoff,
with the consent of those who are most
Interested in the yacht, changed the
designs and. It was this change that
caused a cessation of work at the
Herreshoff works. The new yacht Is
to be a keel vessel without any center
board. The Lawley built yacht designed by
William Gardner for Alexander S. Coch
ran will take a definite form soon.
Tho material is arriving at Lawley's
Neponset yard daily and the frames are
being bsnt and will be ready to set up
as soon as the keel plate has been fast
ened to the lead keel. This yacht
is to be plated with manganese brpnze
and monol rivets are to be used to
fasten the plating to the- frames. These
frames are of monol metal, so It is said.
It Is expected that this yacht will be
ready for launching in April and the
work of tuning up will begin In May.
The London Times recently printed an
article dealing with the possible dimen
sions of Shamrock IV, whicli is being
built by Nicholson for Sir Thomas Lip
ton, and concluded with this: "To sum
up, when Shamrock IV emerges from
the seclusion of her shed to take the
water we shall expect to see a long
hull, with tumble homo topsldes and
an almost complete absence of sheer.
When in racing trim we anticipate that
she will have a sail area of approxi
mately 11,000 square feet set on a Mar
coni mast of about 150 feet in height.
Whether she will be a centerplate craft
or not Is difficult to guess, but we are
inclined to believe that she will."

LONDON". Feb. .14. King George and
Premier Asiiuith saw- the English
players today beat the Irldli team by
17 point to 12 in the third game of
the International, llubj- football series.
The match was played at Twickenham,
near Ixtmlnn.
Cobb reached first base with Eddie
Plank doing the pitching. I was um
piring at the plate. Several times
Plank forced Cobb to hustle back to
first, because of his snap throw to get
him napping. A number of the plays
were very close, and Plank believed he
had caught the Tiger star napping a
couple of times, but my partner in tho
field ruled otherwise.
Finally Plank pulled a move that
caught Ccbb napping several feet.
Realizing it would be useless to try to
get back to first, he made a dash for
second, and was easily retired at that
base. In the meantfme, I was trying
to get the players' attention, to inform
them that I had called a balk on
Plank, and that Cobb was entitled to
second, Vhen Plank; realized X bad ren-
