4 TnE . SUNDAY OREGONIAX, PORTLAND, MAT 2, 1915. STATE SHOOT DVER, NEXT 01 PLANNED Portland Gun Club to Stage Northwest Contest at Its Grounds Next Month. LAST EVENT RECORD ONE Efforts to Bo Put Forth to MaVe Coming: Affair Even Greater Suc cess and Slany Out-of-State Men Are to Compete. During: the two-day shoot of the an nual Oregon State Trapshooters' Asso ciation tournament held at the Jenne station traps of the Portland Gun Club last Monday and Tuesday. 65 shooters competed. This establishes a new at tendance record for the meet. President H. R. Everding. of the Port land Gun Club, is greatly pleased as a result of the success of the tourney, and Is putting- forth all his efforts to make the coming Northwest shoot to be staged at the Portland Gun Club grounds June 6, 7, 8 and 9. an even greater gathering than the recent one. For the most part the scores made at the tourney last week were excep tionally high, all things being taken Into consideration. 1.. M. Held Leads Professionals. Among the professionals L. H. Reid, of Seattle, proved to be the best, hav ing scored 431 out of a possible 450. P. J. Holohan, of Portland; another professional, was only two bluerocks behind the Seattle man. Frank Troeh, of Vancouver, Wash, showed his superiority over the Oregon amateurs by smashing 426 bluerocks out of & possible 450. The first Port land man to show up in the final scores for the shoot is Pete H. O'Brien, with a record of 412 broken out of 450 shot at. L. Rayburn, who won the main event, and is thereby entitled to repre aent the State of Oregon at the grand American handicap affair at Chicago this Fall, was 23d on the list. He broke 8 out of 100 in the final match. James Seavey Gets Watch. The Honeyman trophy was won by Zr. O. ID. Thornton, of Portland, and James W. Seavey, of Eugene, won the "watch for the high run of the meeting, as well 83 the timepiece donated foi the high score at Monday's shooting. The gallery which witnessed the con tests was almost ta large as that at the Pacific Coast handicap. Exceptional Interest was shown because of the large number of new shooters who made bet ter scores than some of those who had been competing for some time. Many cf-the shooters present were getting In condition for the banner shoot of the Pacific Northwest which is to be held in Portland next month. Because the last day of the North west shoot will be the first day of the annual Rose Festival, the Rose Festi val Association has donated $50 to be used as a special prize to the contest ants. The event will be known as the Rose Festival 50 or 100-bird event. Merlins to Be Held. President Everding has not completed the programme, but he has called a meeting of tlie secretary and cashier to be held this week. Complete ar rangements will be made as early as possible so that there will bo plenty of time to notify the shooters. H. H. Veatch, of Cottage Grove, was elected president of the Oregon State Trapshooting Association at the annual meeting in Portland Monday night. He succeeds Henry F. VVihlon. of Gresham, who also was the Oregon delegate at the grand American handicap at Day ton, O.. in 1914. Last week's shoot was of more in terest to Oregon sportsmen, and many shooters from out of the state were not on hand. Word has been sent to the local club, however, that delegations from many clubs of both Oregon and Washington will be on hand next month to try for prizes.

Ustherlna; Is to Be I'nder Auspices of Multnomaa (lab and Rose Festival. Three States to Be Represented. - What promises to be the greatest assemblage of athletes ever brought together in this part of the country will be held in Portland next month, when the Pacific Northwest Associa tion annual track and field meet and tryouts for the Far Western champion ships will take place on Multnomah Field. The gathering has been set for June 11. Manager Hawkins, of the Multnomah Club, announced last night that he would begin to sendout his entry blanks this week. The meeting will be held under the auspices of the Multnomah Club and the Rose festival Association, with a special event known as the Rose Fes tival five-mile modified marathon to be added. This race will take the con testants, part of the time, over a course laid out on some of Portland's busy streets, with the' finish to be made in front of the grandstand on Multnomah Field. 1 Inquiries have been sent to Manager Hawkins relative to the staging of the meet, and as it is only a little more than four weeks away, active work In completing the details will be done this week. The first entry blanks will be issued beginning next Wednesday, and every club in the NorthweEt will be asked to send delegates. Almost all the prominent athletes of all the colleges in Oregon, Washing ton and Idaho will be on hand. Such athletes as Gillis, of Vancouver, B. C; Con Walsh, of Seattle; Beaeley, of Van couver, B. C: George Phllbrook, of Multnomah Club, and Sam Bellah, of Multnomah Club, holder of the world's indoor record for the pole vault, are sure to be present to do duty. Something new in the way of prizes has been suggested by Manager Haw kins. Instead of giving the customary gold medals to first place winners, gold watches will be substituted. Thio plan was tried out in the East and was a big success. Four places in each event will count and medals will be given to second and third place win ners. Several record holders will receive entry blanks. The winners of the va rious events are in line to make the Journey to San Francisco "to compete in the Far Western track and field championships of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition. "I can see no reason why we shouldn't have the greatest athletic carnival in the history of the Northwest June 11 in Portland," said Martin Hawkins, manager of the affair. "It has received the official sanction of the Rose Fes tival Association and will be held on the last day of the annual event." L.A GRANDE RACES ARE JTJXE 1 7 Noted Motorcyclists of Northwest Expected to Participate. LA GRANDE, Or.. May 1. .Special,) La Grande's annual motorcycle road races, carrying a total prize money of $1000, will be run June 17 on a rectangular course of more than seven miles. The La Grande-to-Baker race has been abandoned this year. Two miles of the course are slightly hilly and the reBt level as a floor. In view of the fact that prize's are offered for the main event a 800-mile - i , race and because motorcycle riders ol Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Cali fornia already have had experiences with these races, it is anticipated that many noted racers of the Northwest will attend. The race comes on Thurs day in the middle of a great week for La Grande. The Elks' $60,000 home will be dedicated that week, the East ern Oregon blue rock shoot will be held, and the motorcycle races are to be staged. . BOAT DECISION ADVERSE MOTORBOAT CLUB TO PARTICIPATE IN CANAL CLEBRATION. festivities at Oresjon City Nay 22 and Butteville May 23 Also on Pro gramme of Activities. Len Myers, regatta chairman, has just returned from a meeting of the Pacific .International Powerboat Asso ciation at Tacoma. The Portland Motor boat Club's appeal in the "Baby Bell Wastrel" case was heard and th-e board confirmed the decision in favor of the Wastrel. It is possible that some further action may be taken in the matter. The race In question was run at As toria during the last regatta, and con fusion arose among the racing entries over the drifting of a stake buoy. Through misunderstanding as to the running of the proper course by the "Baby Bell" protest was' entered and this boat was deprived of the decision in favor of the Seattle entry. A circular letter has been sent out by Commodore Beebe to all the club members urging all who can do so to participate in the Dalles-Celilo Canal celebration. It is proposed to meet the canal fleet at Vancouver, Wash., at 10 A. M., May 6, to join with the citi zens of Vancouver in their local cele bration and proceed to Portland with the fleet, arriving at 2:80 P. M. Dur ing the morning also a delegation of boats will be sent to Oregon City to attend the celebration at that city, and these boats, returning, will enter Port land harbor the same time as the Celilo fleet. Oregon City has invited the Motor boat Club to participate in the celebra tion of Booster day May 22. It is prob able that a number of the club's speediest boats will give an exhibition of speed runs there. These boats will be on their way to Butteville to Join the civic celebration scheduled for Sunday, May 23. The City of Butteville has advised the club that its celebration this year will surpass anything that the city has yet at tempted in this line. Posters have been spread broadcast over the surrounding country a cir ASSOCIA- cus is billed for the town and the citizens for miles around will attend the festival. The town will be dec orated in gala attire and the Motor boat and Tacht Clubs will be the hon ored guests. l Entering into the spirit of "Clean Up, Paint-Up" day, the members of the Motorboat Club are getting busy touch ing up their water craft, painting the launch-houses and generally sprucing up.

BI HARRT B. SMITH. SAN" FRANCISCO, May 1. ((Special.) James Edward Britt, know to his familiars as Jimmy, who has been In our midst on a vaudeville tour, cays that up to date Jess Willard has been the most mismanaged pugilist be ever saw in the upper flights. Jimmy knows something of what he Is talking about, for he is a great little publicity secur er on his own account and he had the advantage for a long time of his brother, Willis, who knew the game from Alpha to Omega. More than that, Jimmy was on the same bill with the new heavyweight champion at Hammerstein's in New York City and has had a chance, there fore, to see for himself Just what was going on. "There have been more mistakes to the square inch with Willard than I thought possible ' to make," explained Brltt. "First of all, they started to do the wrong thing in Havana Just after Willard had won his victory. His manager or managers came out with a statement that Jess would not listen to challenges for a year to come; that he Intended to make some soft stage money and all that before haz arding his ttle. , "It couldn't have been worse. Feople like a fighter for his fights and not his ability to do things on the stage. The easy way would have been to ex plain that Willard was in need of a short rest before renewing his ring en gagements, but that soon he would be prepared to meet all challengers. That would have kept the boys borrowing bank rolls to make a showing when they issued their challenges. It would have kept interest up to the right pitch. It would have been cheap advertising for Jess. ' "So far as fighting is concerned, you can't make a man fight unless he wants to, and Willard could have embarked upon his theatrical work in peace. Now he will be continually hounded. "And can you Imagine a fellow who has been around the boxing game as long as Tom Jones adopting such tac tics as he did in New York? He vir tually made Willard a prisoner, pre sumably afraid that some one of the thousands of fans would have a chance to see the big fellow without paying an admission fee. Willard would be kept out of sight during the daytime and virtually smuggled to his dressing room. "That may be the new way of han dling world's champions, but it cer tainly was not the style when John L. Sullivan and James J. Corbett were all the rage. Incidentally, I question whether it will turn out well in the long run." Britt Jumped clear across the conti nent to open in a local vaudeville house. He will work around the bay for two or three weeks and then will start on an extended trip that will keep him away from the United States for a couple of years. Following in the footseps of Corbett, the San Francisco boy will go to Australia and plans to continue as far as India and other out-of-the-way points. Incidentally. I want to do away with the line of reasoning that James Ed ward was never lightweight champion of the world. That sort of stuff goes great in theatrical advertising, even though there is nothing to back it up. However painful it. may be to say so, we can't give Jimmy the crown. Although the Amateur Athletic Union National boxing championships were given to the East rather than to San Francisco, quite a number of the stars will be seen in action here. The Ex position boxing championships are to be held at the Civic 'Auditorium Wednesday night, May 5. and already there has been a liberal entry from Eastern states. California, of course, will Tiave its quota and it is expected that the North west will compete in spite of the un pleasantrles that arose over some of the recent decisions. Quite likely a new set of Judges will be named, in order that any possibility of trouble may be averted. s Eddie Camp!, the San Francisco ban tamweight, who has been in the East for a couple of years, seems to have struck a winning gait. Only recently, in St. Louis, the Califomian won an eight-round newspaper verdict from Frankie Burns, of Kansas City, and did it so handily that every one of the newspaper critics hanled him the ver dict. George Engle, who is managing Campi'a interests, writes that Eddie is looking for a match with Kid Williams- for the title. While he was around these parts, Campi couldn't seem to do much good 12,000 SEATS FOR SPECTATORS $2.00 RACING FOR 50 ADMISSION AUTO RECORDS S1MASIIED THE FASTEST CARS ON PACIFIC COAST Rose City Park Cars to Gate of Speedway Track for himself. Now, however, matter have changed and the little lad may come in for something good. The only trouble, as Engle explains. Is that the small boys of the ring don't draw big money. Even as champions, they can not command the guarantees which have been handed to lightweights and boys above that class. ess New York sporting writers are com plaining that the new boxing law Is all wrong. Under the new law the state will derive a revenue of 7 per cent instead of 6 per cent of the gross of all contests. Walter St. Denis, one of the best-informed of the fistic writers, says the clubs cannot stand this tax and that a great many of them will have to withdraw from the field. The trouDle is that the stars in the game are demanding fancy guarantees and when the bills hav been paid there is nothing left. Also, the bill provides that the of- h ttf i &a i a 'f f , ; .; Harry K. B.

Sharkey likes to do hfs own driving and, as the races this year are to be held on the Exposition track, he will doubtless be something of an adled attraction. Iteports continue to come from the East that Ralph Gruman, the Portland boy, has been getting- alont nicely and Is well liked by those f :ina who are re-rular attendants at the contest.-. Gruman. so It Kfems, was laid up for time, but once more he is in shape.
