C0RVALLIS CATCHES CREW NOT TO GO EAST WASHINGTON EIGHT TO STAY ON- COAST THIS SKASON. - Stanford Men Said to Have Been Serv- bus at Bis: Knee and to Have Failed to Row lp 4o Form. SEATTLE, April 8. The Stanford boat crew, defeated yesterday by the University of Washington oarsmen, went to Portland by train last night, taking their shell with- them. The defeat will make no change in the plans of the Stanford men to com pete in the Poughkeepsie regatta, nor will the Washington victory cause the northern oarsmen to go to the Eastern contest. Even if the Washington fac ulty were willing to rescind the rule preventing the sending of the crew east until 1917, the trip could not be made. Captain Clyde BroKaw and Ed ward Leader will graduate this year. and it would be impossible for them to leave their studies. No other men could take their places in the shel. J. Arthur lounger, graduate man ager of athletics at Washington, said today: "The Stanford men never got into their swing, and were very nervous during the race, as they had been ever since they arrived in Seattle. Orme, Stanford's captain, had lost 10 pounds from worrying. During practice the other day the Stanford crew covered the distance in 16:03. Yesterday's race did not show the real quality of the Californians." Other judges of rowing expressed themselves similarly. FJt.VXK ORU TOIKXAJIE-VT Y. Tt.

Seiberts failed to win the Bowie & Caldwell 18-2 balkline billiard tour nament just closed. It was a handicap tourney and Seiberts had the biggest handicap, playing to 225, while Frank Orr. the winner of first prize,..was listed at 100 points. Second place was taken by Jack Stuart. Ash Clark won third honors and C. A. Marsch took fourth prize. A three-cornered tie resulted for third place, which necessitated a play-off. High run for the tourney was 59, high average 9 26-31 and grand average 6 8-9, all by Seiberts. Following is the stand ing of the players: ' W.L.! W.L. Frank Orr 5 1F. G. Epton 3 2 Jack Stuart 4 2'W.

This week-end bids fair to be a hard one on trout and Chinook salmon. Every angler in Portland seems to have the fever. All the railroad companies and the Portland Railway, Light & Power Com pany are getting out weekly bulletins, advising the fishermen just where to go, how to get there and the condi tions of the fishing grounds. Many parties were out last week-end but yesterday, today and tomorrow promise to smash last week's record. The good weather of the last few days has caused the waters to be less turbulent. This will aid the fisher men. On the Astoria railroad, there are favorite fij-hing haunts at nearly every station and a score or more parties hiked that way yesterday with as many more planning on going today. CorvalllN Has Good Fishing;. Up Corvallis way, they are enjoying the finest Kind of trout fishing. All of the parties in that section are com ing back with big catches. The streams seem to be full of trout and the biting Is fine. The trout average about 11 inches in length. Hundreds will be casting for trout near Tillamook today. Fifty trout a day has not been considered a big catch there Lately. Of course, the McKenzle River, which is reached by going to Eugene or Junction City and staging about five miles cross country, is the fisherman's paradise. Red sides are seemingly lighting eacTi other to grab the bait first. Record catches were made thera last week by several parties. Experts say that the conditions are ideal. Streams Still Trifle Swollen. Streams near Dallas and Marshfieid are still a trifle swollen, but still fairly good fishing is being had. Next week end conditions will be more favorable, it Is said. On the Bull Run and Estacada car lines the cars will be packed early this morning with fishermen going out to their choicest spots. The Sandy River and Clear Creek, as well as nu merous other streams, will be dotted with Portland anglers hungry for the great out-of-door sport. Salmon fishing at Oregon City and throujrhout the state will be on in full blast starting today. Tackle' Is Lost In HIvrr. Last Friday morning Walter F. Backus and O. P. Locke were fishing below Hawley's Ttilllrace near Oregon City about 5 A. M. Backus was eating his breakfast, which he had brought with him, when Locke, eager to mak the first catch, was casting. Locke became so enthusiastic in cast ing that he threw his rod, reel, line, spoon and the rest of a $5 outfit Into the Willamette. The pair caught no fish, for theyspent the remainder of the morning endeavoring to regain the lost fishing apparatus. Sjoaldi tig's Bookings for Today. Eleven games have been booked by the A. G.

PRlCi: HIGHEST EVER PAIt Ked Sox Outfielder Brings Store Than IJid Collins or Baker. CINCINNATI, April 8. .While he would not say what amount of money was given for Tris Speaker, James C. Dunn, president of the Cleveland American League club, declared the deal Involves the greatest cash consid eration ever paid for a ballplayer. "We paid more money for Speaker than the Chicago Americans paid for Eddie Collins or the New York Ameri cans paid for J. Franklin Baker," said Dunn. "The acquisition of Speaker was purely a cash consideration, but there may be some minor details tvMch would involve one or two of the lesser players ori the Cleveland team." fORKOUT IB TODAY JllLT.XOji.VH TRACK MEN HOLD PRACTICE. If oldlna; of - Pacific Northwest Title Meet Mere Daring Roae Festival Celebration Proposed.

Hawkins have been in structing the Reed College athletes how to run. Jump and handle the weights and if everything goes all right a dual meet may be held later in the season.

Frank, chairman of the regis tration committee of the Pacific North west Association, and T. Morris Dunne, secretary-treasurer of the association, are working to have the title events held o:i Multnomah Field during Rose Festival week and make them the offi cial tryouts to see who attends the Na tional track and field championships at Newark, N.

JEW PLAY TO BE TRIED 'ECLECTIC GOLK TOURNAMENT TO r.E STARTED SOON. J. M. Korde Oft'era Trophy for Winner of Contest Thpt Will Continue All Summer. Another new "wrinkle" has been planned by the handicap and tourna ment committee of the Portland Golf Club for the seaspn of 1916. It is an "electric tournament." J. M. Forde, a prominent golfer who was a recent vis itor at the Portland Golf Club, ex pressed his interest in this form of play. The tournament will start soon. When he heard that the committee had planned such a tournament he of fered a handsome trophy for the con test. "Nothing elves a golfer more pleasure than to hole out from off the green with a two or three, cheating a par by a stroke or two," said Mr. Forde. "It should be Interesting to see how low a score will be turned in for nine holes after a season of play." Following are the rules covering this tournament as posted at the Portland Golf Club: Thi eclectic or eelectlve tournament la a station's score card made up of nine indi vidual holes played in the kast number of strokes during a period named by the han dicap and tournament committee, ay April 1 to November 1, 191 rt.

Great Outfielder Traded Cleveland for Cash and Two Players. to DEAL COMES AS SURPRISE Ilard-Hitting Player, Highest Sal aried Man In Game, Is Dis posed Of Wlien He Balks at Signing Contrnct. NEW YORK. April 8. Trlstam Speak er, one of the greatest outfielders in baseball and for the past two years the highest-salaried player in the game, was traded today by the Boston Amer ican League team to the Cleveland club of the same league. The deal, which was c!oed here by Manager William Carrigah, of Boston, and Robert McCoy, of Cleveland, came after many rumors that flie world's champions were to part with their brightest star, but nevertheless it caused considerable surprise. Speaker waB one of the mainstays of the Boston club, both in fielding and batting, and contributed largely to the winning by his team of two world's series during his eight years with the Red Sox. In return for the famous player, Boston will receive. Manager Carrigan said, two players' Pitcher S. P. Jones and another to be chosen later, and a cash consideration. The amount to be paid was not announced. The release of Speaker is said to hrve been caused by inability to come to terms on the question of salary. Two years ago, when Speaker was eagerly sought by the Federals, a contract was given him for two years at a salary re puted to have been li.500. the high est ever paid a ballplayer. To close this deal, Joseph J. Lannln. owner of the Red Sox. met Speaker at the dock upon his return from a trip around the world with an all-star team. At the passing away of the Federal League Lannlng offered Speaker a contract for this year, calling for a much smaller salary, said to be about 19000. The result was that they failed to come to terms. Speaker 1b 32 years old and was born at Hubbard City, Tex. He played two years with the North Texas League and then went to Boston in 1908. With the exception of his first season, he batted for an average of .300 in the eight years he was with the Red Sox. His best year was 1912, when his aver age was .383. Last year he batted .322. He throws with his left hand. Jones participated in 48 games while playing with Cleveland last year, but was used chiefly as a relief pitcher. He is credited with having won three and lost eight games. His batting average was .156. WALKER TO REPLACE SPEAKER Red Sox to Save I,arge Snju on Sal ary to Outfielder. BOSTON, April 8. The transaction in New York today by which Tris Speaker passed from the Red Sox to the Cleve land Americans ranks as the greatest deal financially in the history of the game. Although President Lannin, of the Boston Club, would not disclose the figure, information obtained here placed the amount of the cash con sideration, with the release value of the two players which Clevelandturns over to Red Sox, at approximately $20,000. In addition, the deal represents a saving of another Jl'3.000 to the Boston club as the difference between the salary which Speaker sought and that which his successor will receive. Clarence Walker, purchased a few days ago from the St. Louis Browns, will cover center field for the Red Sox. With a batting record almost the eciual of Speaker's and a strong throwing arm, the newcomer is expected by the management to go far toward filling Speaker's place. In fielding. it is expected, the ranging ability of Hooper and Lewis will be of assistance in covering the ground over which Speaker was master. The player who will come to Boston from t.'leveland with Pitcher -Jones probably will be Evans, an infielder. with 2731. High man for three matches is listed to "Obak" Wallace, with 6?S. with Shaw and Patton. tied for high game at 256. Patton won high aver-uye. with 197 in 45 games.
