2 THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, DECEMBER 24, 1916, DQB1E GETS OFFERS WINGED "M" BASKETBALL ASPIRANTS WHO ARE BATTLING TO APPEAR IN THE FIRST LIN EUP DURING THE 1917 SEASON. FIRST SUCKER MAY BE CLEVELAND MAN a challenge to any man on the Pacific Coast. Call for Eddie O'Connell! Mr. O'Con nell!! e e Konstantlne Roumonoff Is in train ing for his match at Dreamland, San Francisco, with Ad Santel January 2. Every man has a hobby. Willie Hoppe's is baseball. If he were not a billiaxdist, a champion of the game, he would rather than anything else be a baseball player, a Ty Cobb. When be is not playing billiards, and there Is a baseball game, you'll find him at the ball park. He can tell you the real name of every player of prominence. St. Louis fashion experts are predict ing that red hosiery won't be worn so conspicuously next Fall. Chicago papers say that "the Cuh machine is to be reconstructed on a solid foundation." Going to use more concrete? Grouchy Gus says: "Anybody that expects ME to give 'em anything for Christmas is entitled to a belt as the world's champion ground and lotty catch as catch can expecter." The Six-Day Race Game. A six-day race is a funny game; every day it Is Just the same, and yet FROM 5 COLLEGES One Position as Director of McCredie Says He Expects to Get Chance at Guisto, Gan dil, Miller or Harris. Athletics Would Pay $5000 for Nine Months. RUSH FOR SERVICES BIG NEW PITCHER IS IN SIGHT Business Calls, However, and Hero of 11 Years of Continuous Foot ball Coaching Likely Will Give TJp Gridiron Ambition. BY PORTTJS BAXTER. . SEATTLE. Wash.. Dec. 23. (Spe cial.) Hardly had the word gone forth that Gilmour Doble, hero of 11 years of football coaching without a defeat, ha quit the University of Washing ton than the rush to secure his serv ices for the coming season commenced. Five tentative ofters, one specific, have been received by the tall, uncompro mising and aggressive Scot. Will he accept one of them? That is a difficult question to an swer. Doble himself has not given the matter serious consideration, as he Is care-free for the first time in 11 years, and is thoroughly enjoying the sen sation. The "specific" offer, previously re ferred to, carried with it a salary of $5000, which is a considerably larger amount than Doble received from the University of Washington, but the duties called for are more extensive. 1 His title would be that of director of athletics, and he would have to direct the development of the baseball and basketball teams as well as the foot ball eleven. The work would cover a period; of approximately nine months, whereas at Washington it was only three. Dobie refuses to give the name of the college that has offered him $5000, but from inside sources I learn that it was outside the Paolfic Coast College Con ference. Most of the letters received by Dobie were along the line of inquiries as to whether he would coach next Fall and if he would consider an offer. A year ago Dobie felt that the time had come for him to drop out of ath letics and take up some other line of work. He not only resigned, but dis covered C. J. Hunt, of Carlton College, Minn., who has been offered the coach , lng Job at Washington for 1917. How President Henry Suzzallo and promi nent members of Washington alumni finally prevailed upon Doble to return to Washington is a matter of history. This year he feels, even stronger than he did in 1916, that the time has come for him to get down t.o work, work of a different kind. It naturally would be supposed that Dobie would take up the practice of law, as he has had such a training. It is a 10-to-l shot, however, that he will follow some other line. To "brush" up on law would take some time, and then again three good business open ings are before him. The Northwestern Baseball League narrowly escaped a bad smashup at its annual meeting. Now that it is all .over, an outward appearance of har mony presents itself, but that Is about as far as it goes. At one time the bickerings and strife were so acute that President Robert Blewett threw up his Job, grabbed his hat and initiated a walkout. It is also reported that President Dugdale, of the Seattle club, was so far out of gear with the Ideas of some pf his fellow-dlrectprs that ha gave them to understand that Seattle didn't give a rip if there was a separation. How things were smoothed over to the extent of keeping Blewett and Dug dale from bolting has not been made public, but Russ Hall, owner pf the Tacoma club, is given credit for insert ing the peace propaganda at the psy chological moment. Outside of Increasing the antagon ism that exists among some of the di rectors the meeting settled Beveral points: Increasing number of players from 13 to 14, eliminating Monday games and giving the managers more latitude in the contracts with indi vidual players. As might have been expected, the directors did nothing with the Frank Guigni-Joe McGinnity con troversy. Guigni accused McGinnity of making remarks that reflected upon his character as a player, and demand ed an investigation. The data that came before the directors were not spe cific enough, in their opinion, to war rant decisive action. The Northwestern League was not up to its usual standard last year. The Spokane club outclassed, the othera Manager Nick Williams always insist ed that his payroll was within the limit. Seattle, Vancouver and Tacoma apparently adhered to the rules of the league. After Herb Hester took charge of the Great Falls club he seemed to ba a law unto himself. If he observed a salary limit,- gossip did not give him a fair deal. Bralley Glah, who was one of the most . famous quarter-milers ever de veloped in the Pacific Northwest, and also pretty strong with the javelin, had the pleasure of riding .with Miss Eleanor Blevins in her record run from Philadelphia to Washington recently. The New York American speaks ol Gists as a well-known auto driver, and says that he accompanied Miss Blev ins as mechanician. The run was made in 3 hours and 15 minutes, 35 minutes faster than the best previous record. Miss Blevins is well known on the Pa cific Coast. Last Summer she won a race for women drivers from Los Ange les to San Diego. 1IAXS WAGNER ON 2 1ST LAI Record of Great Baseball Veteran Brilliant Through 20 Years. Hans Wagner has finished his first 20 years of major league baseball, and next season will start on another stretch. A generation of fans have come and gone, but Honus promises to go on and on. outlasting all the heroes of baseball except, perhaps, one. The only man who now has a chance to pass or tie Wagner -is Tyrus Raymond Cobb, who has a good start, but still has some dozens of seasons to go be fore he can say that he in truth also Is one of the game's greatest.

The slogan of Ho quiam High School followers 365 days out of the year is Brewer Blllle. Beat Aberdeen and the result of the 1916 football season was a victory over the old rivals Thanksgiving day. It was the first time that the local insti tution had defeated Aberdeen in the annual Turkey day clash, since 1912 and inasmuch as it was Coach Billie's first attempt the ex-Oregon Aggie is much admired. Championship la Claimed. The Hoquiam High eleven is Justly claiming the championship of South western Washington. The lone defeat of the year was a 30-to-0 walkaway for Everett, Wash., High, but it came Just at the time the locals were not at their best.

"Walter- McCredie, managrer of the Beavers, Intimated last night that he would land a first baseman from the Cleveland American League Club before many weeks pass. The Indians now have four on their payroll for next season. They are Louis Guisto, "Chic" Gandil. Miller and Harris. Everyone knows Guisto and also Gandil. The latter Is a veteran who formerly pastlmed with Sacramento in the Coast League. Miller hit .344 with Omaha, in the Western League, last season, playing; in 1S1 games. He was at bat STO times, scored 119 runs and made 19S hits. His total bases mark came to 2S7 and his stolen bases S3. Harris was secured by Cleveland from Chattanooga, of the Southern League. He hit .309 In 141 games, and was at bat 601 times and scored 73 runs. He made 15a hits for a total bases mark of 230. and aucceded in stealing 20 bases. The Western League as well as the Southern are Class A organizations, one class lower than this great Western circuit. BleCredle Ltkea Miller. Manager Mack likes Miller, whom, he says, is a young fellow. Harris is young, too. but Boss Walter does not know hla-pedigree. To farm one of these chaps out to Portland Cleveland would have to get waivers on them. A player heralded as was Louis Guisto would hardly run the gauntlet. "Chic" Gandil's legs are going back on him, for he Is no longer a youngster. He might get through, but it Is not likely that Lee Fohl will let him go, as he must retain one sea soned veteran to case the youngsters all blow up. It seems at this writing that if Port land gets a guardian for its initial cor ner from Cleveland it will be either Miller or Harris. According to their last season's records either one of these boys would look good with the 1917 representatives of this fair city. Leake Slay Come West. The McCredies are dickering for a pitcher named Leake, who belongs to the Rocky Mounts, In the Virginia League. The Richmond club grabbed him in the middle of 1916. That club finished in the cellar, but Mr. Leake won 10 and lost 13 games and-swatted the pellet at a .266 clip. The year be fore Leake won 14 and lost S for Rocky Mount, and hit .328. Walter McCredie is in high hopes of landing Leake, whose name will give some of the coast baseball writers an opportunity for a lot of fun if he lands here. Cal Lwing, owner of the Oakland club. who attended the American League meeting in Chicago about ten days ago. Is either a diplomat or else his wires are badly crossed. While in Cleveland he gave out an Interview to the Cleveland Leader which reads in part as follows: "Guisto, the big Italian first Backer, will never be a big leaguer if he lives to be a million." The Leader goes on to say that It makes no difference to the Cleveland club what Ewlng thinks. Guisto Is go ing East next Spring for another trial and will be given every opportunity to make good. HERMAN HARD AT WORK DIXIE'S FRIDB WILL FIGHT WILL IAMS OX JASCARV 8. Match Scheduled for New Orleans. It Is Contended, Will Show Class of Southerner. Like the warriors of the bare knuckle days, Pete Herman, the pride of Dixie, has turned to the outdoor life to put himself in condition Tor his bout with Kid Williams at tha Louisi ana Auditorium on January 8. in New Orleans. Herman has opened a train ing camp in tha piney woods of Bay St. Louis, Miss., facing the Gulf of Mexico, ana in the same place where John L. Sullivan and other famous gladiators did theij training for prise rin? contests. It is only a few minutes' ride from New Orleans. Herman's work in preparation for his championship bout Includes tree chopping, wood sawing and rowing on the Mississippi Sound. - Herman is up at surfrise each morning for a long run along the beach. About 9 o'clock he goes out chopping wood. After dinner ho takes a row of a couple of miles on the sound and 4 P. M. each day finds him sparring with a number of boys he brought to his camp from New Orleans. From the form already shown he will be in the beat physical condition when the gong sounds. This will be the third meeting be tween Herman and Williams, When little more than a novice Herman fought Williams Immediately after the Baltimore boy had won the champion ship from Johnny Coulon in California. It was a ten-round no-declsion fight, and Herman was credited with an even break. On February 8. 1918. Herman outfought Kid Williams in 20 rounds, but was given only a draw. The papers said Herman should have been declared champion. The stage fright that makes its appearance In every contender meet ing a world's champion will be absent in the makeup of Herman this time. Ha has no fear of the "Wolf Boy" and Is confident of a decisive victory. The Herman-Williams mill will help clear up the bantamweight situation. Since last February Herman has been claiming the title. Johnny Ertle, of St. Paul, endeavored to make the pub lic believe that he was entitled to the crown, but his claim fell flat- Ertle has yet to fight any one of cham pionship caliber. Williams' recent form has proved that he is still as good aa ever. j Sounding the Sport Rceille.

It is a general belief among baseball leaders that a club to be successful must have at least one good left-handed pitcher. The fact that the St. Louis Browns of the American League had five good southpaws last year may be a warning to the effect that it is possible to have too many good left-handers. Fielder Jones num bered among his pitching staff Eddie Plank. Earl Hamilton. Carl Wellman. Ernie Koob and George Sister. The Cleveland club had only Coombs, until it acquired Joe Boehling In a trade with Washington. Cleveland evidently suffered from a dearth and St. Louts from an overabundance of southpaws. t t 1 there are birds who stick it through-r-they're sure hard up for something to do. Their intellects must have slipped a cog they sleep in their seats and eat hot dog a spill or a spurt fills them with Joy, and they roar. "Go it, 'ats-aboy." whene'er their hero forges ahead. And the riders, doped and al most, dead, plug 'round and 'round In the brilliant glare, breathing in the stale and smoky air. until, so weak they can hardly creep, they stop for a snatch of dopy sleep. And the specta tors, through day and night, make bets and hoot and argue and fight, and cheer and Jeer and grumble and snort and theygot the nerve to call it sport!
