Ex-Champion Lightweight Is in
Serious Condition Follow
ing Operation.
BOXER WELL KNOWN HERE
Scrapper IVlth Fighting Heart Is
Recalled by Visits to Portland
During Early Courtship of Fay
King, He Recently Divorced.
lETROIT, Juno 3. The condition of
Battling Nelson, former ligrhtwelg-ht
champion, who recently underwent an
operation for appendicitis, was pro
nounced "very serlons" by his. physician
today.
Nelson was born on Tun B, 1882. at
Copenhagen. Denmark. He first began
boxing- when only 14 years old, but did
not attain the heights among the first
division boxers until along about 1903
and 1904. He won the lightweight
championship on July 4. 1909, by knock
ing? out the negTO lad, Joe Gans, in 17
rounds at San Francisco. He lost this
self-same title Just across the bay at
Richmond on February 22, 1910, a ter
rific dying struggle of 40 rounds, that
transferred the laurelbaum to the brow
of Ad "Wolgast.
Nelson has always vouched that this
decision was unfair and that if the
referee had permitted the bout to con
tinue he would have retained his title.
Not a bit daunted. Nelson has kept
himself In condition ever since, and ev
ery few months you read of the famous
Dane attempting a "come-back." He
did startle the railblrds about a year
ago by spoiling- the aspirations of a
couple of promising youngsters at
Havana, Cuba.
"Bat" Nelson is . particularly well
known here because of his frequent
visits to Portland during his early
courtship with Fay JCing. daughter of
Jack Kin. Nelson Induced the clever
young cartoonist to leave her work on
a Denver newspaper three or four years
aero and marry him. Their weaaea
career was brief, for Mrs. Nelson left
him within a. fortnight, and recently
the Battler obtained a divorce.
At his best. Nelson probably was the
preatest fighting lightweight that ever
lived. He was not clever, not an ex
tremely hard hitter, but he had the
fighting heart.

LOS ANGELES. June 3. (Special.)
This is Billy Rodgers, Jr., the am
bitious 2-year-old. son of Bill
Rodgers. the Prodigal ball player,
whose return from the big bushes is
going to be feted and feasted, by the
Portland fans. This youngster's un
blushing hope is to be the world's
greatest second Backer a better sec
ond baseman than his father.
He has a uniform Just like his dad
dy's and a little bat. Instead of teach
ing him his A B abs, his mother has
started him on his world's Journey on
baseball. Advice to Judge W. W. Mc
Credie is to sign him before Billy
Rodgers, Jr.. comes to the notice of
John McGraw or Conny Mack.
"While here he was In uniform every
day and he proved to McCredie's team
that he could call a ball player out as
gracefully as any umpire has ever done
or could do. The tot has a speech
that has been taught him by his mother:
"Daddy stood at the plate with his
bat like this. The pitcher winds up.
Daddy swings at the ball. The umpire
calls him out like this." Then he goes
through the motions of. Jerking his
thumb over his right shoulder. Just to
start something Bill, Sr., howls, "Kid.
you're wrong! Daddy hit a home run!"
Then the argument commences.

REFEREE JACK GRANT MISSES ONE
IX JIMMY CARROLL EVENT.
Portlander's) Left Eye Cut Wide Open
In Sixth Gorman Wallopa Martin,
of San Francisco.
Referee Jack Grant missed one Friday
night In the opinion of a majority of
the BOO fans when he gave Billy Mas-
cott the decision over Jimmy Carroll
In the main event of the Rose City
Athletic Club's show. Mascott gave
away about five pounds to the dancing
one, but Carroll did most of the lead
ing. In the sixth round Carroll cut the
Portlander's left eye wide open with a
short right-hand punch. Billy boxed
valiantly, but glvina; the local boy a
draw would have been stretching It, for
the San Franciscan had a shade. Grant
is an able official, however, and the best
or referees miss one once in a while.
The South Portland Frenchman weighed
about 120 pounds. '
Joe Gorman, .bantamweight, gave
Bobby Martin, of San Francisco, all he
wanted in three rounds. Gorman has
shown a lot of stuff in his two engage
ments here, and is the logical opponent
for Mascott at a future show. Martin
substituted for Joe Farrell.
Julius Hyberg, 150-pounder, substi
tuted for Billy Nelson, and lost a de
cision to Jack Wagner, 140-pounder.
Valley Trambitas got an earned de
cision over Romeo Hagen, for he had a
shade the better of the argument. They
are middleweights. In the- curtain
raiser Billy Ryan and Sammy Gordon,
108-pounders, fought hard all the way.
and the affair was called a draw.
Jack Grant refereed all the bouts
and Jack Fahie kept time.

Three teams will employ Herculean
efforts to win In the Inter-City Base
ball League this afternoon. The Brad
fords, Woodburn and Salem are tied
for the leadership of Fred Norman
Bay's circuit, each having won six and
lost three contests. . 1
It seems certain that one of the clubs
or two are sure to drop out of the tie
for first place. If all three should
lose, then four teams will be tied for
the league leadership for the Kirkpat
ricks will crawl ud enough to be
placed in the charmed circle.
Portland fans will have an opportu
nity at witnessing one of the conflicts.
The Bradfords and the Kirkpatricks
will do battle on the Vaughn Street
grounds and the game should be hotly
contested.
The Bradfords have lost the last two
games to Woodland and Salem. In
these contests the team has not been
hitting as it should. although the
pitching of Moreland and Schwartz has
been excellent.
"Chuck" Edwards. Fritz Cohen, Wal
lace Childers and Eddie Bogart com
prise the East Siders infield and for
a semi-professional aggregation it Is
a good one. They can all bit. field and
run the bases. Cohen has had a trial
In the Western Tri-State League;
Childers played professional ball for
something like eight years while Bo
gart had a whirl in the Union Asso
ciation back In 1914.
Here are the lineups of the two
clubs: Bradfords Clark, catcher;
Schwartz, pitcher; Edwards, first base;
Cohen, second base; Bogart, shortstop:
Childers, third base: Stepp. left field;
Kennedy, center field; Luckey, right
field. Kirkpatricks Baker, catcher:

Bateman, right field.
Chet Murphy, who will pitch for the
lodgemen this afternoon, has just been
released by Woodburn to make room

Haines, the new Inter-City official, will
handle this game. All t the Inter

These fellows should not receive recogni

firmly believe editors should arrive at an
understanding and publish photos and names
of this class, for they are in the way of
progress and hinder the character building
