APRIL 14 IS DATE FIXED
Track and Field Contest Sure to
Draw Big Entry List, Includ
ing Institutions as far
South as Ixs Angeles.
Mora than 250 Invitations to all the
leading- universities, colleges, clubs and
higrh schools of Oregon, Washington
and California have been mailed by
Dominic Calllcrato for the annual Co
lumbia University indoor track and
field meet billed for the Coliseum Sat
urday, April 14.
The University of Southern Califor
nia is the most southerly institution
that has been invited to send its ath
letes to Portland next month, and
Coach Callicrate is confident that the
230 entries of two years ago will be
broken. The 1915 event was the last
one that has been held because last
Spring the spacious Coliseum was
wrecked due to the heavy snows.
Since then the building has been re
modeled and the track fixed up so
that now the contests again can be
held, regardless of the weather condi
tions. Coach Callicrate has received
word from several of the teams of the
Portland Interscholastic League, as
well as Oregon Agricultural College
and the University of Oregon. The
University of Washington, Whitman
College and Washington State College
are expected to have at least one repre
sentative to the 1917 games.
Word of sprinkling the track and
field was started early last week, and
as soon as the ground has been raked
and softened the Columbia University
athletes will be working out. George
Philbrook, coach-manager of the Mult
nomah Amateur Athletic Club, has been
waiting patiently until the condition
of the track will warrant the sending
out of hs proteges to Columbia Uni
versity. Arrangements were completed where
by the Winged "M" delegation will
work out in the Coliseum Tuesdays and
Thursday nights and Sunday morning's
as soon as the track is ready. In the
meantime the Cardinal and White boys
are hanging out In the club gymnasium
under the direction of Manager-Coach
Philbrook, Captain Walter A. Hummel
and Dr. Leslie Clough, physical director
of the club.
The Multnomah Amateur Athletic
Club will have at least 15 athletes in
the annual Columbia University Indoor
track and field championships. Coach
Callicrate, of Columbia University, sent
word to the Olympic Club of San Fran
cisco and asked them to be represented
here April 14. It may be that the fa
mous distance man, Oliver Millard, will
be induced to make the trip north
with the Winged "O." Millard Is the
man who ran such a race with Hans
Kolehmainen and Guy Hobgood In the
National five-mile event at San Fran
cisco in August, 1915. Kolehmainen
winning by inches from both.
While the ra'ns of the last few days
has postponed the .first turnouts of
the Interscholastic League teams in
Portland, efforts will be made to make
their debuts this week. The Multnomah
Amateur Athletic Club track and field
will be ready for active competition as
soon as the athletes are prepared.
George Howie has had a gang of men
fixing it up for the coming occasion.
With the announcement that the Uni
versity of Southern California, Univer
sity of California and Stanford Univer
sity planned on sending teams to the
Oregon Agricultural College relay
games April 6, Coach Callicrate was
confident that it would not be difficult
to have the Callfornians remain over
until the following Saturday and show
their wares In Portland. Coach Crom
well, of the Los Angeles sohool, has
hopes of bringing seven, or eight men
with him to Corvallls, and his stars
will look good running around the Co
lumbia Indoor track April 14.

DUNDERDALE IS "BAD MAN"
In Total of 2 4 Games Played Dur
ing Season Portland Man Re-
celved 140 Minutes In Pen
alties Nichols Second.
VANCOUVER, B. C, March 10. (Spe
cial.) Official Individual scoring rec
ords and official individual penalties
for the season of 1916-17 In the Pacific
Coast Ice Hockey Association, as com
piled by the league's official statis
tician, show that while Bernie Morris, of
Seattle, proved to be the leading scorer,
he found Spokane, the weakest team in
the league, the hardest tram to score
against.
The figures show that while he
notched 15 goals and 10 assists against
Vancouver, making 25 points, be was
only able to get through the Canaries
tor 11 points. Dick Irvln, of Portland,
also found Vancouver the easiest team
to score against, while Dr. Gordon Rob
erts, of Vancouver, found the Canaries
to be the easy mark. Outside of Irvln
Fred Harris is the other high man on
the Portland team and he found Van
couver the easiest team to get through.
The assist column shows that Morris
when playing against Vancouver could
do a. lot of passing, but playing against
Spokane he couldn t do anything at
all In the line of passing the puck.
Barney Stanley, of Vancouver, Is one
of the best players in, the league In
regard to passing the disc and he
found that the Portland Uncle Sams
were the hardest to get by with passes
that would net goals.
In the penalties the "bad man hon
ors went to Tommy Dunderdale, of
Portland, who out of a total of 24 games
spent 140 minutes on the fence, which
means that in all he spent two and one
third whole games on the fence in
playing the 24 contests. Sibby Nichols,
of Spokane, came next with 68 min
nutes and he is crowded for the posi
tion by Moose Johnson, captain of
the Portlanders, with 58 minutes.

WHITMAN STARTS PRACTICE
Bad Weather Delays Baseball Work
and Worries Borleske.
WHITMAN COLLEGE. Walla TValla,
Wash.. March 10. (Special.) Outdoor
practice at Whitman College started
yesterday, when Coach Borleske called
out his squad and put them through
a siege in the batting cage. About 25
men were out, and hard workouts were
arranged for, but a cold wind with
threatened snow kept the men Inside
today.
Coach Borleske Is beginning to get
worried, as his schedule calls for the
first game April 4. with Gonzaga Uni
versity, at Spokane, and he has not
had a chance to get a line on his
material yet. Though he has eight
lettermen back, only four of them
played regularly.

BISHOP HAS NEW BOXER
BIDDV TRYIXG TO MATCH GEORGE
CHRISTIAN WITH LEVIXSKY.
Negro With Wallop and Cleverness la
Rated by Manager as Comer Pelky
Beaten by Him In One Round.
SPRINGFIELD. O., March 10.
George Christian, negTo middle and
light heavyweight, of Columbus, O., is
after big game. Christian has placed
nimseir under the management of
Biddy" Bishop and the latter has
started firing his heavy guns at
Battling Levinsky. Billy Miske, Jack
Dillon. Les Darcy. George Chip. Gus
Christie and other great battlers of
that division.' Bishop says he has every
good reason to believe that Christian
can trim any of the boxers mentioned.
He has a pretty stiff cash forfeit ready
to post the moment someone spills an
answer.
Battling evlnsky's manager made
the statement recently through . the
press that he was going to let his pet
Battler meet negro boxers. The first
one to take heed to this waa Bishop
who says Levinsky s sponsor can set
the date and place and Christian will
do the rest. "And if Christian doesn't
whip Levinsky ttren I don't want a
penny," said Bishop.
Christian is said to be a clever boxer
with a world of speed and a good head
on bis shoulders. And he has the wal
lop, too. This was shown when he
toppled over Arthur Pelkey In one
round when Pelkey was at his best.

The runabout Comet Is to undergo
a general overhauling and touching up
in the near future. This craft has a
speed of about 16 mflea per hour,
although Captain Martin Shea, of
course, claims much more. There

regattas this Summer, as there are
several of the club's runabouts of very
nearly the same speed, and all of the

the 1917 season.

Fighter Appears In Boat While Not
at Work Flying In War Zone:
Match In America Is Xot Ex
pected Before Wrar Ends.
From an account picked up In an ex
change one is supplied with a little
first-hand Information on the present
condition of Georges Carpentier, and to
those on the Inside who read " this
story It becomes plain that It was a
good thing for the boxing game that
Tex Rlckard was unable to get the
French heavyweight to come to New
York when he first spoke about a Car.
pentler-Leslle James Darcy or a Carpentier-Wlllard
scrap.
The recent .bout In which. Carpen
tier participated was held in Paris at
a benefit for Georges Bernard, French
middleweight champion. who was
killed In an aeroplane accident at Pau.
Carpentier Not Barred.
Although It appears quite out of the
question that Carpentier will be able
to take part In a boxing match In
America as long as the war lasts. It
seems that he Is not altogether barred
from the sport In his native land.
The Frenchman who has won so
much fame as an aviator since the
great conflict started and who gained
so many laurels as a boxer In peace
times, pitted his skill against Jean
Bicot.
The Paris account says that Blcot Is
nearly as bisr as Al Palzer and nearly
as strong, and outweighed Carpentier
by some 30 pounds. It says that Car
pentier showed all his old-time crafti
ness, speed, footwork and Judgment of
distance, but that two and one-half
years of cigarette smoking has had a
marked effect on his wind. At the end
of the third round Carpentier was
puffing hard and after the last round
was blowing like a porpoise..
Familiar Guard la Standby.
Carpentier used his familiar guard,
which Is a combination of the Leach
Cross and Ad Wolgast styles, forearm
doubled over face and glove over ear,
with body crouched low. Time after
time he took big Blcot's hardest blows
on his elbows and Just swayed to left
or right, breaking the force of the
punches.
Then Georges pulled James J. Cor
bett's old game, dropping his hands
and just moving his head and shoul
ders to dodge Bicofs swings. When
ever Blcot tried an uppercut . the
Frenchman backed out of range.
The opinion of American sportsmen
present, many of whom have followed
the ring game for the last 20 years,
was that Carpentier Is too little for
Willard over a long ronte. although his
speed and science might win him a de
cision in ten rounds.
Popularity Here Is Conceded.
All agreed the Frenchman would be
popular In America. owing to his
flashy, speedy style, so unusual for a
heavyweight.
Replying to friends who criticised
him after the bout. Carpentier assert
ed he would reduce his cigarette al
lowance to three a day hereafter.
i.ik. trin Paris reDort says two and
one-half years of cigarette smoking
has had a marked effect--on Carpen
tier's wind. If he was blowing like a
porpoise at the end of four rounds with
the unheard of Bicot. how would he be
puffing after ten rounds witu
Willard who would ouiweign
