Kenneth W. Penner. who is on his
way to Honolulu with Portland, was
secured from Cleveland. The Indians
purchased him from Marshalltown, of
the Central Association (Class D), late
last season. He took part in a few
games with Cleveland, but not enough
to get in the averages. With Marshall
town -he worked in 35 games, 287 in
nings and faced 1055 batters, allowing
22 4 hits and 80 runs, 45 of which were
earned.
He hit 10 batters, walked 62 and
struck out 165 with but five wild
pitches and not a single balk. "Pen"
won 22, lost 11 games for an average
of .667. He allowed only 1.41 earned
runs per nine innings, being the reat
pitching leader of the league. He
greatly assisted Marshalltown in win

fessional ball with Cadillac, of the
Michigan State League in 1914.

for Ability in Teaching: Others

Although it was not generally known,
Jack Cody, swimming Instructor at the
Multnomah Amateur Athletlo Club, al
most left the club recently. One of
the four largest clubs In the East
sought Mr. Cody's aorvices and for a
time he seriously considered accepting.

one, Mr. Cody has many friends in
Portland and, like other Oregonians,
did not wish to leave the state. He
has been on the Pacific Coast for five
years. Mr. Cody succeeded Arthur
CavllI, who was drowned about three
years ago.
Mr. Cody came here from Kansas
City, where he had charge of a bathing
beach and natatorium. He decided to
come to Oregon on a visit and liked
it so well here that he stayed, signing
up as swimming Instructor at the
Winged M" institution. At present
several hundred women are participat
ing in swimming by Mr. Cody s in
struction, not to mention the large
senior and day Junior classes.
Mr. Cody claims to have trained Nor
man Ross, who holds the world's 220-
yard record. Louis Balbach, who won
the world's Indoor high diving cham
pionship at the Panama-Pacific Expo
sition in 1915, was his pupil. Clair
Tait, former Coast champion fancy
diver; John McMurray, Pacific Na
tional amateur champion sprint swim
mer; Colly Wheeler, Frank Lindstrom
and Frank Kiernan all started their
work with Mr. Cody.
Some of his later pupils are Myron
Wilsey, Ed Leslie. Ronald Riley. Ed
ward Strycker and "Happy" Keuhn.
Mr. Cody inaugurated the midsummer
Willamette marathon swim, which is
an annual event.
Before going to the Multnoman jiud
he organized the Portland Amateur
Swimming Association. In this asso
ciation were Norman Ross, John Mc
Murray, Colly Wheeler, Clair Tait,
Frank McHale and "Doc" Roller.
Among the foremost women divers of
the country are some of air. Joay s
pupils: Mrs. ponstance Meyer, Thelma

Preparation for Coast Confer
ence Meet In May.
BERKELEY, Cal.. Feb. 24. (Special.)
The 1917 track season at the univer
sity of California was opened this week
by a big rally, captain rxicnois ana
Coach Christie were the principal
speakers. They laid stress on the need
of a California track victory this sea
son, following three consecutive cinder
defeats by Stanford.
California will be represented at tne
Coast Conference meet to be held on
the University of Washington oval in
May and will send 10 of her best ath
letes to this meet. In tne pre-season
workouts the California squad appears
to be stronger in the field than on the
track. Coach Christie has fair mate
rial in the track events and hopes that
he can develop a man who can equal
House, of Stanford, in the hurdles.
Carroll Grunsky, of Stockton, who
held House even In the high hurdles in
freshman meets last year, has im
proved greatly and. Christie has faith
that he will carry off the honors in
the high sticks. Wadsworth, Purnell.
Volberg and Bowen are counted upon
to take care of tne short oasnes. in
the quarter are Moody, Pitts and Jack
son. Sherman and Blancbard are Cali
fornia's only hopes in the distance
events. Captain rsichols will pair with
Jackson in the high and broad Jumps
and will compete in the pole vault.
For the longer distance races, Ray
Sherman, captain of the cross-country
team, and Charley Sullivan are avail
able. Hiram Humphrey, of Portland,
the smallest man on the squad, is the
most ambitious, as he has gone out for
the two-mile. Humphrey is built on
the general lines of Oliver Millard, of
the Olympic Club, but is a head shorter.
Lloyd and Swalji are the veteran two-mllers.
C. C. Glldersleeve, Claude Monlux and
Ed Richardson comprised the winning
hammer trio against Stanford last year.
Glldersleeve holds the intercollegiate
record in this event. . Harry Liver-
sedge, Intercollegiate title holder in the
shotput. again will toss the weight for
the Blue and Gold.

A very pleasing feature of the exhibition
given at the Elks' Club was the attempt of
Master Thomas C. Burke, aged 8 years, to
defeat the world's champion. Newel W.
Banks, at a game of checkers. He was at
the side of his father and received encour
agement from him and the editor, but
nevertheless, resiirned after a few moves.
Thorns. C. Burke. Sr.. Collector of Customs,
played a sound game to the 16th move. Th.
wrong move here being made, he soon re
signed. Newel W. Banks will, on his return trip,
to Southern California, visit Portland again.
March 3. 4 and 5. An effort wtll be mad.
to beat the world's performances at these
exhibitions. Only 50 cents a board will b.
charged and 25 cents admission to witness
the blindfold feats. C. T. Rice.
