Pacific Northwest Sports
men's Tournament to Dis
tribute Fine Trophies.
TOURNEY IS THIRTY-THIRD
Value of Prizes Will Exceed $2 700.
Record-Breaking Attendance Ex-
j
pected Ily Everding System
Will Be Used tor First Time.
' BY EARL. TL GOODTOf.
The first big trapshooting tourna
ment held in the Pacific Northwest so
far during the 1917 season is scheduled
for the Everding Park traps of the
J'ortland Gun Club Sunday, Monday.
Tuesday and Wednesday of next week.
That a record-breaker attendance is in
store for the events is the opinion of
those handling the affair.
The occasion will be the 33d annual
registered tourney of the Sportsmen's
Association of the Northwest, at which
time more than $700 in cash will be
added to the $"2000 worth of handsome
trophies of all kinds.
Sunday Is Practlee Day.
Next Sunday is practice day, so that
the visiting ninirods will be able to
limber up for what is to follow. Shoot
ing will start at 10 o'clock Sunday
morning, but after that every contest
ant must be on the grounds in time to
start operations not later than 9 o'clock
A. M.
Five 20-bird events have been placed
for next Sunday, with optional sweep
stakes in each event. Targets have
been placed at two cents each, with an
entrance of $2, which will be divided
40-30-20-10 among the winners.
For the first time since the system
was made up, the shoot will be con
ducted for the four days under the Hy
ICverding system. Heretofore the Lewis
system. Jack Rabbit system or some
other method has been used in handling
the registered contests. It is named
after Colonel Henry R. Everding, secretary-treasurer
of the Portland Hunt
Club, who has applied for a copyright
pn his latest work.
Everding System Explained.
The Hy Everding system explained
Is: The total entrance for targets and
money on a programme of 150 targets
will be $7. From this amount will be
deducted $4.50 for targets (or what
ever price is charged for the birds);
the balance, $2.60, will be added to the
purse at the rate of 25 cents to each
event. If the shoot has 100 money en
tries, it will make $25, which, added
to the club's added money, $15, makes
a total of $40 added to each event, or
a grand total of $400 on the 150 tar
hawks. By changing the amounts, this
eystem can be used to fit any pro
gramme. Until he is notified as to whether or
not he has been awarded a copyright,
Colonel Everding has announced that
any club may use it provided the line
"Hy. Everding system" is used on the
programmes.
Fonr Hundred Target Registered.
There will be a total of 400 regis
tered targets for the three days, June
25, 26 and 27, 150 being scheduled for
Monday and the same number for Tues
day, with the remaining 100 on Wednes
day. The Northwest gathering is well
known for its abundance of trophy
competitions. Every year the battles
are furious for the cups, as with them
come, a handsome sum. There will be
nine trophy events during the three
days of registered shooting.
Several members of the Portland Gun
Club left yesterday for the annual
Idawa Gun Club shoot at Palouse.
Wash., slated for today, tomorrow and
Tuesday. Today is practice day. It
was at Palouse last year that H. A.
Pollock, vice-president of the Portland
club, made such a name for himself as
manager of the local teams. He was
named manager up there and has held
the title ever since.

Much to the regret of the grammar

James Burke. better known as
"Jimmy." will leave tomorrow morning
for Bremerton, where he will enter the
United States Navy. Mr. Burke re

He is 2o years old stands 6 feet 1 inch.

Burke has been swimming instructor
and lifeguard at the Windemuth baths
and the city parks for the past seven
Summers and during that time he has
never had an accident happen to any
of his charges that would require the
aid of a physician.
Burke's longest swim was made from
Oswego to Portland in August, 1916.
The distance of 84 miles was cov

swimming sensation, is a product

hold of Richardson the youngster had
never swam a stroke or tried a dive,

Portland Motor Boat Club
Notes.
THE next of the club's parties will
be held next Tuesday at the club
house. The entertainment committee
will be right on the job, as usual, and
the same guarantee of a good time still
holds. Bo sure to come and bring that
prospective member.
Chairman Gade and the entertain
ment committee are seriously consid
ering holding the next of the club par
tis at Rock Island, across from Mil
waukie. Excellent accommodations are
to be had and it also gives the mem
bers an opportunity to use their boats
for entertaining their guests. The
island also can be reached by taking
the regular boat from Milwaukle. Let
them know what you think about it.
Much credit is due Inspector Mc
Grath and his deputies for the effi
cient patrolling of the river during the
Rose Festival regatta. The H. W. Scott
and the runabout Naughty Cirl, piloted
by Captain Von Der Worth, were
everywhere at once, and there was not
a single case of interference with the
racers.
During that submarine chase, did
you notice the snappy action of Gun
ner Martin Shea in the vogler Boy II?
He had forgotten to get his ammuni
tion, but went through the actions just
the same, and then had the nerve to
try and convince folks who know him
that nobody noticed the difference.
Some bluff!
Captain Milton Henderson, with the
cruiser Elsinore, left early Saturday
for Astoria to bring home Mrs. Hen
derson, who has been at Seaside for
the past few weeks. As Vice-Commodore
Carl Johnston Is to act as as
sistant pilot and maid of all work, it's
a safe bet nothing will get into print.
even if a night be spent on a Columbia
River sandbar.
Speaking of credit, to George Ken
dall and Len Myers goes the credit and
honor of pulling off the best river re
gatta this town has ever seen. Both
these men worked like Trojans, and
richly deserve all the thanks that can
be given them. With the aid of capable
assistants everything went off without
a hitch of any kind, with not a single
accident to spoil the fun. Gentlemen,
we thank you!

The cruiser skippers of the club, be
coming tired of the short courses and
numerous turns necessary in the regu
lar races, have gotten together and an
nounce a long-distance race to be held
some time during the first part of
July. The destination probably will
be Sit. Helens and return. Some of th
assured entries are the Rowmar, Elsi
nore. Nogero. Dorothy W., Sea Wolf,
Martena Gloria and of course the irre
pressible Peggy II and Carl Johnston.
To make it interesting, it has been de
cided to bar anything with a speed of
over 12 M. P. H. Doing this makes
some close finishes assured.
War Material Only Isr Hauled.
PEKIN. June 1. Russian consuls in

WELSH
OVER
QUIBBLES
LOST TITLE
Ex-Champion of Lightweight
Division Asserts Leonard Is
"Technical Champion."
FULL COUNT NOT GIVEN
Rules Cited to Show Referee Mc
Partland Entirely Within His
Rights In Stopping Contest
and Awarding Title-
NEW YORK, June 16. Freddie
Welch is determined not to relinquish
his hold on the lightweight champion
ship without a final struggle. He la
doing his best to cling to the title,
even if it be by only a technicality.
But there Isn't even a technicality to
connect Freddie with the title he held
for so long. The crown has been taken
from him and now adorns the black
thatch of Benny Leonard.
Welsh refuses to concede that he was
knocked out, because the fatal 10 sec
onds were not tolled over his prostrate
form. He contends that because he
was not lying prone on the floor of
the ring, and because Kid McPartland,
the referee, failed to count him out,
he still holds the championship.
It is like a drowning man clutching
at a straw and then discovering to his
dismay that the straw is but a vision
and there isn't even a straw to grab.
Return Match Possible.
Freddie may attempt a come-back in
spite of his age and long servitude in
the ring. It may be that Leonard will
be sportsman enough to grant him a
return match in the immediate future.
But that is something that rests be
tween Welsh and Leonard. It has noth
ing to do with the fact that Leonard
is the champion.
Harry Pollok. manager for Welsh,
claims that under rule No. 5 of the
Marquis of Queensbery rules, Welsh
was not knocked out. He says that no
man can dare say what would have
been the ultimate outcome of the con
test had McPartland lived up to the
rules and given Welsh his due in a
nine-second count before calling him
out." Fighters have, time and again.
been "out," "dead to the world," saved
by the bell on the ninth count and
come on in the succeeding rounds to
be determined winners.
Pollok and Welsh have plucked the
rule most favorable to them. They
have overlooked another, which covers
the case far more completely a rule
under which the title changed hands
and beyond which there is no rebuttal,
certainly no alibi.
Referee Within Rights.
The Marquis of Queensbery-rules in
clude the revised code of the London
prize ring, the rules under which fights
were held prior to the drawing of the
Marquis of Queensbery rules. Rule
No. 8 of the revised code of the London
prize ring stipulates:
The referee shall have power to
stop the contest if in his opinion a man
unfit to continue and that shall be
deemed to have lost the contest."
This is the rule that governs what
happened in the contest between Welsh
and Leonard. Even if the rules of the
New York State Boxing Commission
did not uphold the action of the referee
in stopping the bout when he did, this
rule does, and, as Pollok says, the bout
was fought under the Marquis of
Queensbery rules.
Welsh was just as completely
knocked out as if he had been pros
trate on the floor; Just as completely
beaten as if the fatal 10 seconds had
been tolled over him. He was de
cisively stripped of his championship
robe. - Leonard is not a technical cham
pion.
Had McPartland acted differently.
had he failed to stop the bout when
he did, he would not have been ful
filling the duties vested in him as
referee. He would have been lending
himself to an act which might have re
sulted in serious injury to Welsh.

ing a football team out of new and in
experienced material Is a problem that
will confront Coach Plpal, of the Ore

a result of the heavy enlistment of
regular football men in Uncle Cam's

prospects were much brighter than a
year ago, because most of the varsity
veterans of last Fall had signified their
intention of coming back in September.
Coach Plpal had a dependable group
around which to bullet the football
squad of the 1917 season, but unless
some miracle should end the war, last
year's problem of making a winning
team out of inexperienced material
again will loom up.

Much was expected of the freshmen
for next year, but several of them
will not be back for the same reason
that caused the regulars to leave. Bev
Anderson, freshman halfback, who had
all-around ability as a punter, forward
passer and open-field runner. Is at the
Presidio training camp. "Tufty" Conn,
sensational halfback, registered at the
University of Pennsylvania at the end
of last semester. However, Reardon.

Motor Cars Do Plowing.
GREENSBURG, Pa.. June 6. The
difficulty in getting teams and men to
plow the vacant lots here for the
Patriotic Garden League has caused the
inventive genius of some of those in
charge to put a new method into prac
tice. Light automobiles are being used
to pull the plows and harrows and the
work is being done quite rapidly in
this way.
