FRANK GOES EAST
TO GET GRAPPLERS
Good Mat Men Wanted tc Be
in Championships Here on
May 11 and 12.
60 WRESTLERS EXPECTED
Special Effort Will Bo Made to In
duce Pennsylvania to Be Rep
resented by Dorias, Best
of Eastern Heavies.
Edgar E. Frank, chairman of the reg
istration committee of, the Pacific
Northwest Association, will leave to
night for an extended Eastern trip and
will return via the south andi Califor
nia, He will atop at every city of im
portance in the Middle West and East.
New York, Chicago, New Haven. Ithaca,
Philadelphia, Boston and San Francisco
will be points of particular interest.
Although' the trip is a combination
business and pleasure one, Mr. Frank's
main object is to line up the best ama
teur wrestlers in the United States to
attend! -the National Amateur Athletic
Union championships scheduled for
Portland under the auspices of the
Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club, May
11 and 12.
His visits to New Haven and Ithaca
will be in an effort to have represen
tatives of Yale and Cornell come West.
Harvard. Princeton and the University
of Pennsylvania will also be called on,
and Mr. Frank, who is the former Na
tional 125-pound champion, will not
'miss the opportunity of working: out
with some of the best collegians.
It . is thought that about 60 crack
grapplers will be in Portland at the
time of the big meet. A special effort
will be made to get Pennsylvania to
send Mike Dorizlas, champion heavy
weight wrestler and strong man of
Eastern schools.
The two remaining inter-club pro
grammes scheduled between the Seattle
Athletic Club and the Multnomah Ama
teur Athletic Club, one to have been
held in Seattle and the other here, are
off. There will be no more inter-club
bouts in the Northwest this season.
Frank E. Harmar. chairman of the
boxing and wrestling committee of the
winged "M" institution, Received a let
ter yesterday from Colonel William In
glis, manager of the Seattle Athletic
Club, in which he said that the staging
of such shows was not profitable, con
sequently the cancellations.
Multnomah . Amateur Athletic Club
boxers will not get the opportunity of
meeting the representatives of the
Olympic Club. San Francisco, whioto
they expected early this month. The
San Francisco men were endeavoring
to arrange a trip to Seattle, but now
that the Seattle crowd has called it
quits with inter-club affairs the trip
is off.
- It was" hoped, if the trip went
through, that the San Franciscans
would stop over here. Olympio Club
boxers appeared here in 1914 and drew
a big crowd into the Multnomah Ama
teur" Athletic Club gymnasium.
'
Eustace Grose, better known as
"Rusty" in athletic circles of Oregon,
may wear the colors of the Multnomah
Amateur Athletic Club in the 135-pound
boxing class.
It may, seem strange to list "Rusty"
89 a 135-pounder, for while he was in
the Portland Interscholastlc League and
a member or the Oregon Agricultural
College 1915 football equadi he tipped
the scales at better than 152. Since
then, however, "Rusty" has been work
ing hard and lost weight, but is in fine
fettle. , f
Groce Is working out under. Instructor
Eddie J. O Connell.
Nothing more for the Multnomah
Amateur Athletic Club boxers and wres
tlers In the way of actual competition
until the Pacific Northwest Association
championships scheduled for Spokane in
March.
Two weeks from Wednesday, the
Edgar E. Frank system of stimulating
interest in wrestling at the Multnomah
Amateur Athletic Club will start. About
150 members of the club are now study
ing wrestling. Every second Wednes
day tournaments among club members
will be on the bill -of -fare. -
Chairman Frank, of the registration
committee of the Pacific Northwest As
sociation, has donated medals for every
one, and they Are handsome ones, too.
As winners will meet winners and los
ers tangle with losers, everyone will
get a medal. This will not only tend
to create more interest ,in the sport
but will prepare the better boys for the
Pacific Northwest Association cham
pionships in the wrentllng line.

CALIFORNIA HAS PROFIT
FOOTBALL SEASON CLOSES WITH
MARGIN OP 2100.
Daring 1916 Eleven's) Receipts) Amount,
ed to S36,40O Expenses In
crease 10,0O0 Over 1915.
BERKELEY, Cal., Feb. 3. (Special.)
The 1916 football season at the Uni
versity of California closed with a mar
gin of profit of $2100. The department
of football brought in $36,400 and used
$34,300. In relation to the correspond
ing figures of 1915 the football receipts
of the season Just closed ire greater
by nearly $2500, while the expenses are
$10,000 in excess of the previous year.
The Increase in expenditures is ac
counted for in the enlargement of the
playing schedule, the maintenance of
the training table, the purchase of
equipment and the increase in the
coaching payroll.
Contrary to rumor, the coaching staff
at the University of California is not
draining the coffers of the student
body, as the salaries of the 1916 coach
ing staff, composed of Andy Smith,
Eddie Mahan, Gus Zigler and Pat El
liott, totaled only $2600 in excess of
the payroll in 1915. The results ob
tained from this $2600 investment of
the 1916 season over the 1915 season
far surpass the financial cost.
FRISCO ATD OAKLAND AL.IKE
Fromme, of Vernon, Trims Both to
Queen's Taste.
San Francisco is in the same class
with Oakland when it comes to, an an
alysis of the pitching record of
Fromme, of Vernon, for the last two
seasons. For these are the only two
cluts against which Fromme's two
year totals show that he has won more
than.' he has lost, and in these two
caret, he has trimmed them to the
queen's taste. Against Los Angeles,
Portland and Salt Lake, Fromme in
two years has won 16 and, lost 18
games. Against Oakland and San
Francisco on the other hand he has
won 19 and lost only five games in
two years.
Oakland has been Fromme's chief
victim, he winning 10 and losing only
two in the last' two seasons. San Fran
cisco is close behind. Fromme having
won nine and lost three. Against Los
Angeles, Fromme has won five and
lost six; against Portland he has brok
en even with six wins and six defeats;
and against Salt Lake he has won five
and lost six.
Salt Lake won five and lost none
against Fromme in 1915 and in 1916 he
shewed a complete reversal of form,
winning five and losing only one
against Salt Lake.

for two years follows:
1915 Against Los Angeles, Fromme
won two, lost one; against Oakland,
won four, lost none; against Portland,

Displaying a roll of bills that makes
Death Valley flcott look like a cheap
guy. Walter Miller announced last night
that he is willing to bet Adolph Ernst
Santell. of San Francisco, any amount
of the coin of the realm on Charles
Cutler, of Chicago.
"I've been hollering at this San
Francisco German for a couple of
months," said Miller. "I don't believe
he wants any of Charley's game. If
he does, however, all he has to do is to
telegraph me and I'll bet the dough
and send for Cutler. We'll wrestle him
in Spokane. San Francisco or Portland,
winner take all if ln public
"If acceptable to him we'll wrestle
in private with Just the sidebet on the
result."
Promoter Frank A. Lawler. of the
Parkslde Club, San Francisco, talked
over the long-distance telephone wlth
Valley Trambltas. local middleweight,
yesterday relative to the latter'ti going
to the Seal Rocks City to tangle in a
four-round encounter with Battling Or
tega, the best boy in those parts. Val
ley may accept.
The unexpected departure from San
Francisco of Charley Simpson, Austra
lian featherweight, with his manager
Mat Daly on the steamer Sonoma has
furnished fans something to talk about.
Simpson came to America for the pur
pose, he said, of boxing John Patrick
Kilbane for the world's championship.
Those who saw him box in Australia
felt certain Simpson would give Kil
bane the hardest kind of fight.
But Simpson's indifferent showings ln
the three fights he had in the East
probably discouraged him, and the ex
cuse that he's sick was probably the
only one of which he could think. If
Simpson was sick he would recover in
America Just as well aa he can in Aus
tralia. Anyhow, he is gone, probably
will never return, and he left behind
some greatly disappointed friends.
'Twill be tough indeed if Les Darcy
proves as big a flivver.
Fred Winsor, manager of Jack Demp
sey. Salt Lake heavyweight, writes here
to the effect that he would like to bring
his boy to Portland. This boy Dempsey
is promising looking. He is six feet
tall and weighs 190 pounds.
CHAMPIONSHIP IS CLAIMED
Malloy Basketball Team Has Long
Record of Success.
MALLOY. Or.. Feb. 3. Speclal.)
Malloy basketball team has a record
of nine years without being defeated
by any other Clackamae County team.
It has not lost a game on its own floor
in four years and has not lost & game
this season. The independent cham
pionship of the state is claimed.
One extraordinary feature is that be
ing in a country district, members of
the team have to travel from one mile
to three miles to reach the hall for
practice or matches.
The Malloy players are not seeking -games
with weak teams in order to
maintain an" unbroken record of vic
tories, but stand ready to play any
team ln this section of the country at
home or on the opponents' floor.
