THE SUNDAY OKEGONTAX, PORTLAND, FEBRUARY 14, 1915.
WEATHER SEEN AS
SALT LAKE FACTOR
Some Fans Fear That Team
Will Not Get Good Start
Due to Coldness.
HOLDOUTS GET ATTENTION
Word Anxiously Awaited Concerning
Blankenship's Success in Sap
posed Negotiations With
Williams and Others.
SALT LAKE CITT, Utah. Feb. 13.
(Special.) Salt Lake fans are anxiously
awaiting; news of the result of Cliff
Blankenship's talks with the holdouts,
which was the principal object of his
trip to California. When he landed in
.San Francisco the local manager lost
little time in getting in touch with
tbese players and Immediately hopped
on a. train for the Imperial Valley.
While there is no Information regard
ins the object of his mission there, it
is almost certain that he went to talk
with lefty Williams. Williams, who
was credited with being a star south
paw of the Coast League last season
and who was willed to Salt Lake, along
witb the Sacramento-Mission franchise,
is one of the men who has failed to
end in a signed parchment.
It U rumored here that lie and
Blankenship came to terms and that
Alankenshlp is in possession of his
aigncd contract.
Roll of Team la Give.
TTere Is how the Halt Lake club docket
stands: Signed Catchers. Harry Han
nah. Bert Lynn, W. U. Rohrer; pitchers,
Karl Tingling. Louis Laroy, Claude
Williams. Ray Kremer, Howard Greg
ory, Herbert Manouk. Esley McCreery
Tom Toner. Frank Eastley; first base-
men. Tom Tennant and Herbert Hes
ter; second basemen. Cbarlte r rench.
Joe Gedeon and Kddle Faye; shortstop.
RIHle Orr; third basemen, Lou Bar
bour and Kddle liallinan; outfielders.
K. E. Van Buren. Elmer Zacher. Cliff
Marshall. Billia Davis. John Galena,
Frank Gay and Buddy Ryan. Unsigned
Frank Arrellanes. Blllle Malarkey
and John Williams, pitchers, and
Johnny Shinn, outfielder.
With his club roster virtually com
plete, except perhaps for another in
fielder or two, Blankenship has every
thing; shipshape for the training sea
son. Such was the subptance of a. let
ter received at headquarters here a few
days ago. He plans to go to San Jose
within a weak and remain there until
the players begin to assemble about
February 25.
But there is one thing that worries
the club officials, as well as the fans,
and that is whether Blankenship ran
turn-out a first-division team from the
word go.
Cold Weather 1st Feared.
Many of the fans doubt this and ex
plain it in this way: The team will
tratn for about a month in the warm
and balmy climate of San Jose and then
rome to Salt Lake, whose climate about
Siarch 30 is generally windy and cold.
Many big league managers, especially
Stalling, of Boston, attribute their
" late starts to the coldness early in the
season, and such may be the case with
bait Lake.
From Fayetteville. Ark., has arrived
the signed contract of Herbert Hester,
first baseman of the 1914 Salt Lake
Union Association club. While in the
I- nlon Association Hester never at
tained the reputation of a slugger, and
many of the local fans, commenting on
his ability to become a Class A A player,
figure that inability to hit may bar
him. Nevertheless, when ho was here
during the holidays, he had a long
iaiK wun LuanKcnsmp. most of It hing
ing on his ability to hit the ball li
fast company. During the conversa
tion Blankenship related the case of
Hal Chase. According to the Salt Lake
skipper. Chase, when playing in the
i oast Jeague. used a long heavy stick,
the same as Herb used last year. When
I nase was dratted and went to the ma
jors tho rirst thing his manager did
was to burn his heavy club and give
him a 'Willie Keeler," and today he is
one of the best hit-and-run men in the
game.
A couple of weeks ago Hester started
working out with the University of
jrinas nine, wnicn He Is coaching,
and in batting practice he is using the
Kccler model, and report has it that he
is keeping " the carpenters busy re
placing boards of the left-field fence.
As to his fielding ability, the local
fans have Implicit faith. If Hester
proves up as a hitter he will no doubt
be sure of a berth on the Salt Lake
Coast League club.

BAKER, Or.. Feb. 13. (Special.)
Track work among athletes of the
Bauer High School will begin early
in March this year. This is earlier
than usual, but the. Baker school is
prepared to make up for the defeat of
last season, the first defeat Baker has
sustained in the Eastern Oregon track
championships in five years. ,
There is a wealth of material in
school, with Keowr Fleetwood and

NEW ORLEANS, La.. Feb. 13.
Franklc Burns, of Jersey City, won a

bout here last night.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
Feb. 13. (Special. The heaviest
schedule that ever has confronted an
Oregon track team, looms up on the
boards this season. Nine competitive
classics are booked and the "breaking
training ritual" will not be observed
until in August when the last race of
the San Francisco Exposition games is
over.
'Because of our heavy schedule and
bright prospects I have called you
fellows out so early," said Bill Hay
ward, veteran coach, to the 40 candl-
ates assembled in the gymnasium
Wednesday.
"We will not work hard, but regular
ly," he continued, "and strict training
rules will not be enforced until three
weeks before the Columbia indoor
meet."
Multnomah Meet On List.
On the Saturday after the Columbia
meet on the first Saturday in April, a
dual encounter with the Portland Mult
nomah Club athletes will be held in
either Eugene or Portland.
Under the auspices of the Penn
sylvania University, the annual relay
games conducted by that institution
are to take place some time near the
latter part of April.
While recently speaking of this
prospective trip. Bill said: "Oregon has
had an invitation to these games and
although it is not definite whether or
not we will participate, the journey is
not at all improbable.
May 7 and 8 have been settled upon
as the dates of the Pacific Coast col
legiate championships in San Fran
cisco. Aggie, to Be Met at Corvallis.
The University of Washington's squad
will furnish excitement in Eugene,
May 14.
A week after the matches with
Washington, the Oregon Agricultural
College has promised to entertain the
Oregon men in Corvallis.
On either May 28 or 29, the Aggies
again will be hosts to all of the con
ference colleges. This meet marks the
wind-up of the collegiate season.
Portland is the next scene of en
deavor with Multnomah Field on June
8 as the scene of the try-outs for the
Northwestern division of amateur ath
letics, including all residents of British
Columbia, Washington. Oregon and
parts of Idaho. Here the team will be
picked to represent the northwest at
the exposition games to be held the
last week in July and the first two
weeks of August.
Mid-year registration has donated
Staub, champion half and quarter-mller I
from Portland interscholastic circles; I
Sid Clark, of Marshfleld. who looks
good in the jumps and pole-vault and
Bond of Eugene who is prospective as
a pole-vaulter.
Payne, the roller and two-miler
whose one ambition is to win from
Hopgood of the Aggies, is not yet in
college. It is thought that he will
return within a few days.
Stuller, high-jumper who now holds
the present conference record with a
leap of six feet one and seven-eighths
Inches is doubtful whether he will reg
ister again in college, so a letter from
Baker reads.
The preliminary work-outs for the
phort distance men have consisted in
"starts' under the running shed and
short Jogs around the track when the
weather will permit. The weight men,
Philbln, Cook and Heldenrich, have a
plot to themselves in one end of the
"barn" and are limbering up at will.
WHITMAN'S CHANCES IMPROVE
Pitcher Returns and Lincoln High
Athlete Enters Colege.
WHITMAN COLLEGE, Walla Walla,
Wash., Feb. IS. (Special.) With the
return -of "Pat" Henderson, one of the
mainstays of the pitching staff on
Whitman's baseball team last year, and
the entrance of Drcwe Clerin,' formerly
of tlie Lincoln High School of Portland,
to college here. Whitman's chances in
coming athletic contest were consid
erably bettered this week.
Clerin played center on the Lincoln
High School basketball team and held
down an end position for the last two
years on Borleske's football team. He
was considered one of Borleske's best
point-winners in basketba,,.
Henderson has been at the Oregon
Agricultural College for the past semes
ter, but did not enter athletics there.
Ho concluded a year's residence at
Whitman last year and hence is eligi
ble to play baseball this year.

Called A way, but All Are Eligible

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
Feb. 13. (Special.) Four members of
Hugo Bezdek's varsity football team
have withdrawn from college and will
not register in the university until
the Fall term. They are: Ray Bryant
fullback; Tom Cornwall, end; Oskar
Weist. end, and "Dobbie" Garrett, -end.
Before leaving Eugene the four grid
iron warriors stated that they would
be on deck when the first call for the
departure to training camp is issued
the latter part of the Summer.
Cornwall, who has not been home
for two years, left for the East.
Weist. who lives In Arkansas, In
tends visiting at home for a short
time and may return to Oregon to work
in the Summer months.
Garrett will take up his residence on
a Medford applo orchard. The illness
of his father necessitated the husky
junior returning home.
Bryant has accepted a position witn
the Southern Pacific Railroad Company
and will work on a survey project in
the vicinity of Tillamook.
As all of these men made the re
quired nuniDer oi nours wnen me iinai
grades were handed In at the regis
trar's office, they will be eligible to
compote in conference football next
season.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene,
Feb. 13. (Special.) Five defeats and
no victory is the record hung up by Hugo
Bezdeka squad of basket tossers on
their trip through Washington and
Idaho, where they met the five con
ference teams of that section.
"The old -fight will win yet." said
Bezdek. as he urged his men through
the practice paces. "We get another
chance at all of the teams which
whipped us on the road a t home. With
a good rest and a familiar floor, . we
may do better."
"With the exception of 'Skeeter Big
bee, there was not one member of the
varsity who played up to snuff on the
road, stated Coach Bezdek.
'After we beat Multnomah in the
first game to be played, when we
stopped over at Portland, I expected at
least three victories before we re
turned home.
"Dudley's injured arm caused a
shakeup in the squad and as a result
even though Morton, his freshman sub
stitute, put up a .grand exhibition of
basketball, team work m play was not
up to standard. Dudley, Boylen, Sharp,
'Skeeter" and Lyle Bigbee had been
working together all of the pre-season
weeks and an 'eleventh-hour change'
in the line-up was bound to create
havoc in the ranks."
Rossman. who was acting captain of
the Multnomah Club team and an all
star selection in the City Basketball
League, has registered at the univer
sity and will don a suit in an effort
to work in the remaining games on
the schedule. Rossman Is big, heavy
and fast and will be a welcomed addi
tion to the crippled squad. Bezdek
will likely use the ex-Multnomah star
in a forward position.
Another factor which contributed
heavily to the lemon-yellow defeats
was repeated fouling. In one of the
Washington games, 25 penalties were
called against Oregon and 16 were con
verted. Idaho and Washington State College
were victors by small margins and
with any kind of luck against stale
ness, injuries and other misfortunes,
which Bezdek asserts are following his
team this season, Oregon stands in a
fair way to redemption whan these
teams Invade Eugene.
Whitman, generally conceded as the
weakest team of the conference, ad
ministered a sound drubbing to Bez
dek's men when they played the final
game of the trip in WallaWalla last
Wednesday night.
The first return engagement will be
played Tuesday night, when "Pick"
Griffith leads his husky Gem Staters
on the Oregon campus. ' ,
Proposal to Construct Diamond Is
First for Utilization of 40-Acre
Tract Near Present Campus.
Team's Outlook Good.
TTNIVERSTTY OF OREGON. Eugene,
Feb. 13. (Special.) The University of
Oregon will have a real baseball park
within the course of the spring oase
ball season, if the plans of Hugo Bex
dek materialize.
Bezdek. who acts in the scout
capacity for the Pittsburg Pirates of
the national JUeague aunng tno sum
mer, has designed the new field, and
his patterns are modeled alter -ni
cfle-o's moat modern Dark.
Professor Adams, of the university
architectural department, recently aided
Coach Bezdek in the cost estimation of
the tentative field and at the same
time drove the stakes which will mark
the diamond. At the conclusion of this
work, the plans were drawn up and
they are soon to be presented to the
board of regents. If tho enterprise is
conducted as ranidly as is expected.
the field will bo ready for use when
hnaeha.ll weather comes.
The formation of the new diamond
mark a the first steD in the develop
kment of a 40-acre tract of land, owned
bv the university, southeast of tne ores
ent campus. Thia land was put aside
to ha used as the location of all ath
letic plots, and Bezdek's ball park Is
the first to be made.
Pitcher's Box to Be Eelevated.
An elevated pitcher's box. with the
mound two feet higher than the bases,
is the distinct feature of the new dia
mond, while a slight conical shape,
with the basa lines on a perfect level,
will be given the entire infield.
In recent years, when protesslonai
ball clubs have stopped off In Eugene
to play practice games with the local
varsity, complaints were many concern
ing the field they were forced to
play on.
Temporary bleachers win De ereciea.
but no fence will be built. The site
of the park is only three blocks from
the gymnasium and haa airect street
car communication.
Bezdek's reasons for building the
new diamond are as follows: To get
the people used to coming to the field
where all varsity athletics are to be
staged in the course of two years; to
get a new and better ball park, and
consequently higher-class ball, in
which touring big league clubs will
feature while traveling through Eu
gene, and finally to get away from
tho heavy traffic which is conducted
along the street which bounds the pres
ent site and makes the handling of
crowds without a fence practically an
impossibility.
Football Field Ia Next.
The construction of a football field
on the 40-acre tract is the next move.
and within two years all gridiron bat
tles will be held there.
With the beginning of a new semes
ter and the novelty of pre-eason bas
ketball worn off, baseball has crept
into the daily conversation of the stu
dents. Prospects for a repeater in the
shape of a championship nine are under
much discussion.
When Coach Bezdek issues his first
call to batB, within a few weeks, the
faces of Bryant, "Dutch" Annuson,
Motchenbacher and ex-Captain Fenton
will be missing.
Incoming material, enrolled In the
freshman class, and the seasoned
bench-warmers" of last Spring are
expected to fill the gaps.
Lleuallen, who substituted for Motch
enbacher behind the bat, registered in
college six days ago and is booked to
fill the bill in the receiving berth.
Jimmy Sheehy. a Portland Jefferson
High School graduate, is going after
the third base vacancy.
Big Dick Nelson, regular first base
man, is expected to return to tne uni
versity within tne next weeg. joe Mc
Lean, freshman from Spokane, who
registered last Monday, aspires to a
first base position.
Two Outfielders Needed.
With his pitching - staff complete.
Bezdek's attention will be centered
upon 'the replacing of Annusen In the
infield and the development or two out
fielders. His plans seem to favor shift-
ng Lyle Bigbee front the mound to a
garden berth.
Fitzmorrls. wnneim ana i-.hioi. oi
last vear s second team, will lurnisn
the other competition in the pastures,
plus what freshman candidates
show up.
Nelson at first, "SKecier mgDee ai
short, with "Pop" Cornell at second,

Jured knee, which was operated upon
in Portland during the Christmas holl
davs. Is as well as new. he says.

and is expected to try out for catcher,

OltEGOX AGRICULTURAL, COU-
LEGK, Corvallis, Or., Feb. 13. (Spe
cial.) With the first conference ftamo
of the season to be played on the home
floor scheduled for Wednesday evening,
interest in basketball at the OrcKon
Agricultural College Is at fever point,
despite the fact that the record of the
Aggie quintet thus far this season baa
been such as to disperse hopes of vic
tory. The huHky University of Idaho
five will play against the locals In the
first prame here in an effort to dupli
cate their victory at Moscow.
.The ABgle team Is not yet "right."
according to Ir. Stewart, but at that
the local coach seems confident of Riv
ing the Invadlna- Iiomh a good fight for
the money. The Idaho team, with
"Tiny" Morrison to swell Its tonnage,
will have an advantage of from 15 to
20 pounds to the man over tho Aggies
However the locals showed a lance
amount, of stuff at Moscow, and the
score there was not overwhelmingly in
favor of the Idaho five, despite the fact
that "Doc's" team was handicapped by
a narrow court and flickering lights.
'I've crot a errand little second tam,"
said the coach last night as ho watched
two fraternity teams mix In a riotous
"clgarctto league" (tamo, "and some
times I think they are better than tho
regular team. Thoy are Inexperienced,
however, and In a game I would rather
count on the standbys, even thougli
they do not show up In practice. The
other night th scrub walloped th.
first stringers by a 4 to 1 score In 1
minutes. The ArkIcs seem unahl. to
show their stuff In practice. The elim
ination from practice this week of
