LOTTIS GUISTO was the topic of
discussion at baseball headquar
ters. Would he or would he not
make good with the Cleveland Ameri
can League club next Spring? Some
members of the hot-stove league ar
gued that he would; others maintained
that the larupper needed another year
in the Pacific Coast League. -
One point 1 was brought out: In the
gathering. It was that many young
sters sold for fabulous prices . failed.
Guisto was purchased by Cleveland last
season for 1 2.000 in casn and players.
It was said that a youngster going up
with the reputation of a star failed
more easily than one graduating with
the reputation of being just an ordi
nary pastimer. The strain on the lad
who has had a lot of publicity tends
to make him nervous.
Can a manager know how an obscure
ballplayer will act in the big leagues?
This question was put before the house.
The answer was. No,
Cobb Appears Unheralded.
Twelve years ago the name "Cobb"
started to appear in the Detroit lineup.
A Detroit fan might have asked Sam
Corvallls Temp Next to Play Wash
ington and Pullman for Right
to Meet California for
Pirt-ific Coast Title.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE,
Corvallls, Jan. 20. (Special.) Coach
Everett May's Oregon Agricultural Col
lege basketball team won the fourth
and final game from the University
of Oregon quintet. 29 to 10, here to
night. It was by far the most sensa
tional and exciting match of the series
and many thrills were offered the
large crowd.
The guarding of Captain Ray, of the
Aggies, was the feature, for the
doughty little athlete kept Hollis Hunt
lngton from making a single point.
Coach May. after the game, said that
the tourney just completed between
Oregon and the Oregon Aggies was
the most successful and cleanest he
had ever experienced.
Jay Fox. the former Columbia Un
versity athlete, played a remarkable
game for Oregon after he was aub
stituted for Hollis Huntington. The
score at the end of the first half ended
14 to 8 in favor of the Aggies.
The next game on the schedule for
the locals will be against the Unlver-
si y of Washington February 5 and .
wllle on the 8th and 9th the Washing
ton State College will battle the Ore
gon Aggies for the right to play the
Californians for the 1917 championship
of the Pacific Coast Interscholastic
Conference late next month.

Contest at British Columbia City I:
Listless Except for Spurt. Taken "
at Rare Intervals.
VANCOUVER, B. C. Jan. 20. (Spe
cial.) In a listless game that only J
brought the small crowd to its feet at
rare intervals, when the locals played
combination, Vancouver defeated Spo
kane by a score of 6 goals to 3.
It was only in the third period that
real hockey was displayed. The Mil
lionaires, in the absence of Patrick, at
tacked vigorously. When the Canary
chieftain came back the entire city
seven had an inning keeping Lehman
busy until the curtain came down,
lioose passing on both sides during the
first two periods lost a lot of good
chances around the nets.
"Mickey" Mackay was the individual
star on the local lineup, and broke up
many attacks. Lehman was at his best,
and allowed but two goals proper, the
second Spokane goal being made by
Lloyd Cook when he passed from be
hind the net and the puck hit Frank
Patrick's skate and glanced in.
For the visitors Lloyd Cook played
the best game and worked the hardest.
Norman Fowler, in the nets for the
Canaries, was a wizard, saving from all
antrles.
The game opened slowly. Mackay got
the zirst tally while the Canaries were
sleeping, taking it through the bunch
for his shot. Frank Patrick took the
puck down for the next one and Moynes
beat Fowler. Mallen got the Canaries'
goal shortly after in a mixup.
The second canto was faster. Frank
Patrick scored for Vancouver, passing
the crowd. Roberts fooled the Canary
defense for the next by going down the
boards and stopping suddenly and turn
ing around for a clear shot. Lloyd
Cook got the Spokane tally by a fluke.
The final period was the fastest on
the bill and play got rougher as the
end approached. Mackay s work al
lowed Stanley to score and Nichols got
through when Vancouver men were on
the fence. Stanley- got the final after
eome pretty slick work.
The line-up and summary:
old Tiger, "Who's this Cobb?" The
answer would have been, "Oh, , some
fresh kid they picked up somewhere
down South, who thinks he can hit.
We got to lick 'im in the clubhouse
every day to tone him down.".
Yes, Cobb brought tha grand sum of
$700 when the Augusta club sold him
to Detroit. Any other club could have
had him for $750. They say Clark
Griffith, then managing the Yankees,
could have had Ty in a trade for some
mediocre player. Giving Jennings,
Donovan, Crawford, Mullen and the old
Tigers full credit, Detroit never would
have won a pennant without Ty. When
a team picks up a player like Cobb it's
luck.
The same year that Detroit landed
the youngster Walter MeCre-die, of the
Beavers, had a. draft in for him.
Who ever heard of Tris Speaker un
til he began to startle American League
fandom In 1909? Tris was a star in tne
Texas League, and went so good that
Boston purchased his release from Hus-
Speakei then burned up the Southern
Association. Several clubs were after
him, but Finn, who hadn't even a writ
ten agreement with Boston, stuck to
his gentleman's agreement, and let the
Red Sox buy him back for $500.
Alexander Sold for Sons.
Grover Cleveland Alexander won 29
games and lost 14 for the Syracuse
New York State League club in 1910

Firemen won the first game at Mc
Mlnnville, but since then Manager
Popick has let go all the Wows who
participated in that contest. He now
has one of the strongest independent
squads in Oregon. A preliminary game

him there. Several scout3 looked Alec
over, and anyone could have bought
him for $1000, but no one did. The
lucky Phillies put in a draft for him
and got him for a few hundred dollars,
or the same price that the McCredies
paid for Owen Quinn, who was drafted
by Portland from Syracuse in 191o.
Connie Mack was always a great
hand at picking up "bushers who
made good from the jump. In 1901 he
heard of a young pitcher going great
with Gettysburg College. Mack sent
him a contract. His name was Eddie
Plank, who then was 25. In 1906 Mack
sent a contract to the all-around star
of the Colby College team. Jack
Coombs.
In 1908 Frank Baker played third
base for Reading in the Tri-State
League, a Class B circuit. He was
quite a buster up there and Mack paid
$1000 for him.
In recent years many big money-
minor leaguers have failed. Barney
Dreyfuss. of Pittsburg, paid an Ameri
can Association club $22,500 for Pitch
er Marty o Toole and isuuu extra tor
his catcher Kelley. Both proved to be
lemons. Charley Weeehman. of the
Cubs, last year said he paid more for
Shortsto "Chuck" Wortman than
Dreyfuss paid for O'Toole.
Wortman Fall, to Deliver.
Wortman looked like a million dol
lars in the association, but thus' far
has not set the National League afire.
Walter Maranvllle, of the Braves, cost
Boston less than $1000 when they
bought him from New Bedford in, 1912.
Especially has the American Associa
tion raised a crop of "big money"
lemons. "Bull" Durham was the first.
He went to the Giants from Indianap
olis with Rube Marquard in 1908. The
Rube brought $11,000, the highest sum
ever paid for a minor-league ballplay
er up to that time. "Bull," who is now
in the movies, struck out the side when
he made a start aa a Giant,;, and then
he never put out another big-team
batsman.
Charley Comlskey paid something
like 120.000 for Larry Chappelle, of
Milwaukee in 1914. An early injury in
capacitated him, but he never showed
any big league hitting ability.
Tipple la Lemon Class
During the last year of the Fed war.
1915. big league clubs were not paying
big prices for players and the pastimer
Messrs. Ruppert ana Huston, or tne
Yankees. $11,500. Shortly after Tipple
was bought he lost nine straight games
with Indianapolis.
He showed nothing at the Macon
Spring training camp and was farmed
to Baltimore. He was recalled late last
season and will get another chance to
earn his big price. On the other hand.
Urban Shocker, who looks like a real
find, was picked up in the draft for a
few hundred dollars.
Other famous bloomers were Lena
Blackburne, the Providence shortstop
who cost Comlskey $7500 (a high price
for International League players) in
1908. and Lefty Russell.- bought by Con
nie Mack from Baltimore for $12,000 in
1910.
Yet it Is not fair to presume that all
high-priced minor league players are
failures. The Giants dug up $6000 for
"Chief Meyers, and he was worth all
of it. and Hal Chase lived up to his
Pacific Coast League reputation when
he joined the Yankees in 1905.
Malse-I W.rth What He Cut.
Fritz Maisei cast the Yankees $12,000,
and the release of Daniels and MldUMff,
when he was bought from Baltimore in
1913. and Frank Gilhooley also vindi
cated tha big money that the club twice-
paid for him to International League
clubs. ,
Ray Schalk. tha great catcher of the
White Sox, and Hap Felsch. center
in Southwest Texas.
Eighteen years ago a name. "Math
ewson," appeared in a Giants' pox
score. The papers said "a wild semi
pro finished the game." He was sent
back to Norfolk and the Redb -drafted
him. Then the Giants got him back In
a trade for Rusie.
Who ever heard of Walter Johnson
until he came to the tail-end Wash
ington club in the Fall of 1907. a
youngster with terrific speed."

VANCOUVER, Wash., Jan. 20. (Spe

mission has reopened the trout and
salmon hatchery on Cold Creek, just
north of this city, which has been closed
since September, owing to the lack of
eggs. A shipment of 500,000 salmon
eggs was received this week and 500.000
lake trout eggs are expected soon.
The hatchery was built two years
ago and has been busy nearly all the
time since then, more than 6.000.000
fish having been hatched. It is op

Under the present L V.

Bible to determine f

the end of the Bea
con, but under the
proposed method of competition It will
be able to determine who's who. Mr.
Fletche has suggested that the State
of Oregon outside of Portland be di
vided into four leagues, Columbia,
Eastern, Willamette and South to have
a major and minor section.
He has selected various schools for
the different leagues. There is nothing
definite, however, but simply a sug
gestion.
It is suggested that each league play
off its championship, after which the
winners of the five leagues, including
the Portland Interscholastic circuit,
could play for the state championships.
whether it was in basketball, baseball,
football, soccer, track or field.
As a means of stimulating interest In
the plan Coach Fletcher has sent out
invitations to all the leading basketball
teams of t .e state to take part in an
elimination tournament to be held at
Salem latter part of next month
or early in February. Such events are
quite frequent in the East and are quite
successful. Also efforts are being made
to try and get the many high schools
of Oregon to send their track and field
squads to Salem or any other centrally
located place for a state meet just be
fore the Spring semester closes.
Cross-country running would be
taken up on a more extensive scale and
would be a means of developing track
aspirants. Mr. Fletcher will launch hla
proposed scheme beginning next week
and he is going to start an active cam
paign to Interest the other institutions
of the state. Because Vancouver.
Wash- is scynear Oregon he has sug
gested that the Waahingtonlans be
taken Into the Columbia League if his
plans are accepted.
The plans to have a means ' of
determining a real championship squad
will be received with considerable at
tention as the present method whereby
practically every team in the state has
some founded claim on the title, could
be eliminated.
