" Nineteen members of the Portland Toung Men's Christian Association Al pine Ski Club enjoyed a trip to the Mount Hood regions, leaving here Feb ruary 2 and returning last Tuesday night. They departed at 7 P. M. Feb ruary 2, going by rail to Hood River and stopping at the apple city that night. They left for Parkdale the fol lowing morning via the Mount Hood Hallway. The trip to Parkdale is only a matter of two hours and a half. They were met there by bobsleds .drawn by horses and conveyed to Mount Hood Lodge, arriving there at 1 P. M. on Saturday. After dinner lessons were Immediately started in scientific skiing. Expert Train in Sport. A. M. Grllley. of the Young Men's Christian Association, who was at the head of the party, sent in advance of the company an expert skiier, Egon Elder von Kratzer, an Austrian with a skiing record in Switzerland and Japan. He la now located at Mount Hood Lodge. Saturday afternoon was spent in practicing near the premises. In addi tion the brand new toboggan obtained from St. Paul, Minn., 11 feet long and accommodating eight persons, afforded pleasure. That evening initiation of new members was carried out. The following eight were "snowed' into the club: Chris Betz. A. L. Fish. Harold Gilbert, E. J. Jaeger. C. R. Miller, J. Arthur Norman, George F. Scott and O. W. Mielke. East Fork la Visited. Sunday afternoon a trip to Beaver Dams and the Fast Fork of Hood River Rapids was made, covering a distance of two miles each way over trails and through canyons. On Monday a trip to Fall Creek, five and one-half miles from the Lodge, was In order. This took the company alng Cloud Cap Inn road for about one mile from where they branched off through the Government forest reservation, Tomala Falls were visited en route. A large portion of this road and trail is on what Is now the proposed Loop I ffCA l5 DflDTIIC DdYTCD'C Around the mountains.

Many comical Incidents came up dur ing the outing and nearly every mem ber of the party served for the butt of more than one joke. Because of his expert ability to wax skiis. A. L. Fish will henceforth travel under the nom de plume of the "Skii Waxer." J. Arthur Norman was "dubbed" the "Yawk strop Kid." School Classes Attended. On the return trip ' Tuesday the Valley Crest School between Mount Hood Lodge and Parkdale was stormed by the bunch. All took seats as they nad aone years before In their own grammu school days. A big package of cakes and cookies was presented to the scholars by J. P. Jaeger. Miss McNamara, of Portland, the teacher, enjoyed the visit of the skiiers and upon leaving every child received some small change. W were met at Hood River on our return trip by a delegation from the ular with Freddie Welsh, in his re cent contest with Charles McCourt, of Cleveland, for the three-cushion bil liard championship. It would have been mighty handy to cling onto the title, even if McCourt did win ISO to 122 in three nights' play. But the idea in billiards, irrespective of whether it is or is not run by & trust, appears to be to make the title holder defend his laurels before his contemporaries have reached the age of applying for maintenance pensions. So it was that poor George listened to the challenge of McCourt and went down to defeat. We have not heard complaints that the former champ was too ill to do himself justice. Strange that he did not offer such an alibi, but lack of such details shows how much George has missed by failure to study the life of Mr. Welsh, as revealed in the sport ing columns of the daily newspapers. Methods Not Concealed. So far as the general public is con cerned, there is nothing concealed in the methods of Mr. Welsh. He came to bat strong when he was in British Co lumbia, squabbling over the finishing touches of the negotiations for a scrap Hood River Commercial Club, consist- with Willie Ritchie; be has stirred up mg or Messrs. tuanchard, Moe, Mitchell, Sleg and Thomison. They escorted us through the Hood River Apple Grow ers' plant and we saw them shipping apples to different parts of the coun try. To the party was given the courte sies of the Commercial Club, where the bunch spent an hour before train time. The Hood River Apple Grow ers' Association did not forget us, but sent down a box of apples, most of them being enjoyed on the way to Portland. Snow baths by all members were taken every morning of the vacation.- J. P. Plagemann nearly caused the skiiers to be wiped out on the return trip. Going up Tuesday noon he chal lenged the Parkdale folk to a snowball duel on behalf of the 19 snowshoers. He told the station agent at Parkdale that the battle could be staged on the way home. The agent promptly "ribbed up" the whole community. The home guards prepared countless watersoaked snow balls and were ready for the foe. Surrender Quickly Made. Just before the PoMland' delegation was ready to leave Mount Hood Lodge, the station agent became alarmed at the situation, thinking that some of the town sharpshooters might injure a few good-looVing skiiers. He therefore the animate until he is no longer wanted in New York, Minnesota, Colo rado, Pennsylvania or Wisconsin. Freddie, however, is still the world's lightweight champion, and getting the money. Truly a marvelous condition of affairs. Moore would probably say that he could not apply Welsh's tactics to bil liards, even if he had the Inclination, because he would be stripped of his title automatically before he had reached the high school period. For that -matter. Welsh would, too, were it not for the peculiar conditions that affect boxing "at the present time. Old-Timers Fought or Quit. I do not hold a brief in support of the old prize ring rules that prevailed when John L. Sullivan won the cham pionship from Ryan, or defend the things done by the crowds at the ring side in the days of Tom Sayero, Tom Hyer, "Yankee" Sullivan, John C.

Massing their efforts, they shoved the wrecked gladiator back into the ring. The ludicroueness of the spectacle did not appeal to the crowd at that moment. All it saw was a broken idol. Johnson played the game fair. He waited until Jim got something re sembling a balance and then he toppled him over again. From a technical viewpoint the actual end of the battle was anything but spectacular. Great Crowd la Silent. What held that crowd of 20,000 peo ple silent and speechless was the thought that Jim Jeffries, the hitherto undefeated, the "hope of the white race," had collapsed, that he had gone to defeat before the black man much as one could dump a sack of oats out of a lumber wagon. On one side of me sat Sandy Gris- wold, Omaha's famous sporting author ity; on the other Gillighan, of the San Francisco Bulletin. When the crash came they sat still and silent. And yet Gillighan was always confident John son would win. The silence of those telephoned Homer Rogers, proprietor I is unable for one reason or another of the lodge, advising him to tell Mr. I to "toe the scratch" at the sound of Plagemann to surrender.

At last Seattle fans have a real baseball headquarters In the heart of the city. During the playing season President Dugdale's office in the tower of the grandstand is kept open, but during that period when the "hot stove" league is working, everything is lonely and disconsolate at the park. "Dug" lives at AIki Point, where the waters of Puget Sound come right up under his front porch.

SAN FRA ClaL) I sumotio "Knockout" Term Confuses. As the term "knockout" came Into common use, it was associated with the idea of unconsciousness, hence the con fusion that often exists as to whether a boxer was knocked out. . Jim Jeffries was not knocked out by Jack Johnson in the sense of being unoonsclous. Johnson was almost in front of me in a neutral corner when he got Jeffries to backing up. The colored giant he was a wonderful physical machine that day saw his advantage and pushed Jeffries hard. Jeffries commenced back ing toward his own corner, and John son gave him rights and lefts so fast that Jeffries had no chance to stand his ground. , Rope Holds Jeffries' Body. -When Jeffries went down, the lower rope that, encircled the ring caught him under the knees. Most of his huge body went outside the ropes. Now, Jim had reached that stage In the conflict when he was satisfied to stay where he was, and it was a very undignified BY HARRY B. SMITH. FRANCISCO. Feb. 10. (Spe Is California to have a re sumption of a state baseball league, an'organization that flourished more or less profitably (chiefly less) In the days gone by? Nobody seems to know and no one seems to care. There are- indications on the surface that the baseball magnates may get together, but you never can tell. So far the chaps who have been doing most of the talking want someone else to put up the money. Right there is the rub. State league teams have never been money-makers. Generally speaking the merchants In the smaller cities have been forced to put up the cash. Just for the sake of advertising themselves. All Winter the baseball writers have been commenting on a state league, and just about the time it appears to be one of the stock off-season yarns Mike Fisher bobbed into the limelight. Mike having re-leased his old dan cing pavilion to the Techau Tavern Ice Palace people for another year of ice skating, averred that he had an itch ing to' be doing something. Ftsber Talks Economy. He declared that he thought It feasible to organize a league if con ducted with strict economy. Fisher, for instance, wanted no affiliation with the Coast League, said he would insist upon using only younsters, so that he could sell the players he de veloped at the end of the season or whenever the market appeared. Told us folks that he could start a club for $500 and run It for Just about the same amount of money a month. Offered to finance a team in San Jose, suggested Charlie Doyle and Charlie Graham for Sacramento, intimated that Cy Morelng might be willing to stage a come-back in Stockton, which was the hotbed of the old outlaw league, and whispered that Tom Stephens, vice-president of San Francisco and i ex-San Jose "angel," would be willing I to get back of an organization in Fresno. Then Mike proceeded to San Jose, gathered about him some of the fans n r that wl, V, A will- ing to pay the cost of a team if theyfJ;0 can also take a hand at first base, Stephens has said and it certainly has caused people to do a lot of thinking Fisher refuses to be discouraged. He says that his scheme is a feasible one and that he plans to go ahead. It's getting rather late, however, in the season, and personally 1 wouldn't be surprised to see the project fall by the wayside. The Salt Lake club is banking on new pitchers to pull the Saints through and that team unquestionably will pre sent a lot of new faces in the hurling division, "1 think Salt Lake will have the beat club we have shown Coast League fans for the atari of the season," said Presi dent Murphy the other day. "We have always had a good team outside of our pitchers. Bernhard is an old-time pitcher, and he has been going after the right sort of men. At least that's the way we have the situation sized up." Bernhard admits that he has been devoting his energies to getting some pitchers who will stay put. "Our infield is going to be just about the same, with the exception of a new face at second. Crandall or Gislason will probably qualify for that berth. Otherwise we will have Brief. Orr and Rath. In the outfield there will be Buddy Ryan and Tommy Quinlan for certainties. We have Tobln, from the St. Louis Americans, and Jimmy Shinn. who will fight it out for the other berth. Bees Count ra Dubue. "Dubuo, a wonderful slow-ball pitch er from the Detroit Americans, and Harmon, who halls from the Pittsburg Pirates, are newcomers we are bank ing on. A couple of promising boys from the Western League and Walter Leverenz, who Is a former Coaster, with Hoff and Rube Evans, are among the others. "Harry Hannah will likely do the bulk of our catching just as he has done it in the past. We have Sheeley BERKELEY, Cal., Feb. 10. (Special.) The University of California officially opened the Spring sport calendar this week with a number of practice base ball games, lnterclass track meets, crew races and tennis matches. California s hereditary rival. Stanford, wll be met this Spring In the four major sports of baseball, track, tennis and crew. Cal ifornia's return to the American game leaves a big gap in Stanford competl tlon during the Winter months and at this time the expectation of the Spring sports' competition with the Cardinal is looked forward o eagerly. Nine crews of varsity and freshmen oarsmen are working out dalljf on the estuary, with weather and water con ditions almost perfect. . The varsity crew practice is progressing In good style for this early date in the season. Workouts have been going on for three weeks and the men are begin ning to show some' of the form ana precision that will be necessary to de feat Connlbear's yearly winners in April. Webster Jones. ex-Jefferson High athlete, is practically assured of a place in the varBity eight. Track Team to Be Strong. Captain Rogers and Axel Gravem, ranking tennis players in the univer sity, have started active work with the 1917 Blue and Gold racket wielders and the advent of tennis as a major sport promises to Justify Its higher classifi cation at the university. The all-star, conf erence'and Stanford meets will furnish three track goals for Head Coach Walter Christie's cinder proteges to work for, with the addi tional prospect of an E-astern trip, xne first meet will be held March 31 witn the stars of the Southern California universities. At this time such well- known trackmen as Fred Kelly and Beebe, of Southern California, will com pete with the Bear track squad, Cali fornia, like last season, win do un usually strong in the field events, with such well-known National athletes as Gildersleeve, Nichols and Liversedge bearing the brunt of point getting tor Christie's men. As the conference meet is to be held at Seattle this year, a squad of 10 men will be picked to represent California among the colleges of the Coast. Stanford to Be Met. The Stanford meet is attracting a great deal of attention already and from preliminary surveys the meet promises to be like the 1916 season -in the respect that California will be ex ceptionally strong in the field events Stanford having the edge on the track events. It is still too early In the sea son to figure the winner, owing to the fact that a number of new polntwlnners are just In the making. Coach Zamlock ad Claire Goodwin, of Pacific Coast League fame, have started the varsity baseball team on what promises to be as successful a season as the 1916 one. 'Baseball Veterans on Hand. Fifteen veterans are on hand for the keen fight for positions that promises to ensue. The first squad is composed of Starbird, R. Rohwer. C. Rohwer, Smith. Dimmock. Holmes. Edwards, McCabe. Works. Adair, Gimbal, Vecki Parrish, Masters, Morse and Bequette Prospects for a trip to Honolulu for the baseball team this Summer are bright and promise to add additional stimulus to the followers of the Isa tiona game at the university. Captain Lindsay has Issued the first call for the mermen of the unlver sity and preparations are well under way for the annual meet with the Car dinal. Several factors give indications for a successful season, although the loss of Ludy Langer ,the highest point winner of last season, will give Stan ford a more even break. on KBtq. and QR6, pawns on K2.

Cal., white; Peter president San Quentin Chess Played by correspondence. Cheat would furnish him with grounds and grandstands. Everything .seemed rosy at the out set, but the denials started to pour in. The San Joseans intimated they couldn't see any reason for putting up the money and hiring an expensive manager-- to do their thinking. i They rather resented the coming of Fisher, .alleging that if anyone was entitled to put on a San Jose club it would be Stephens, who lost consider able money on his last trial. Tom Stephens couldn't keep out of the argument. Somebody intimated that Tom was 'butting in" on the Fisher play -4n the Garden City, and this made Tom good and angry. "I don't want anything to do with a state league." he shouted. "You can't make that too strong for me. I've had enough of that sort of game. Fisher has been trying to wish Fresno on me but there isn't a chance not one in a million. If I wanted to return to the State League I would much prefer San Jose. But as I have said, no more baseball- for me. "You can't run a league on a penny basis. The people of the interior towns have been educated up to a higher class of baseball, and I don't believe they will stand for the small town stuff. First of all, the automobiles have hurt the game. "Do you know what it cost me to run the San Jose club? Well, I'd be ashamed to go into details. I do know the monthly salary roll was better than $2400 and we had a lot of ex penses outside of that. This chatter about starting a club on $500 and run ning it on the same amount of money each month is a joke. Can't be done." There is more or less logic in what who will spell Hannah when the bis fellow has too much of the grind." Begins to appear that Henry Berry a new park will be ready .-f or the open ing of the season. Two weeks ago there was danger ahead, as shipments of lumber promised to be delayed. How ever, the proverbial Berry luck has held good; enough lumber started to gtve the contractors headway and the remainder will bo here. Early this week the building of the grandstand had started and It will shoot up faster than one would imagine. There is still to be torn down the old left field bleachers, which will have to be moved back to Fifteenth street to conform with the other 1m proveemnts, and naturally there is more or less work yet to be done in the way of grass for the infield. But Berry has something like two months ahead of him, and that ought to be quite time enough. Cook to Forsake California. Jack Cook will forsake California about the middle of this month. He plans to leave Oakland February IS, and will take up his new duties as business manager of the Salt Lake Club at once. There has been some talk that Salt Lake people do not fancy the idea of a Californian step ping into a berth of that sort. Nat urally some of the, few who may have figured they could land the job would be displeased, but the greater majority of the fans are not concerned with the business end of the game. Cook is the right man in the right place, and when the Utah people come to know him they are bound to like the Oaklander. E. H. BRYANT; Editor. Phone Tabor 6213.
