Clabby May Return O'Dowil and Ratner to Meet Frank Erne Plays Golf. 3 READY FDR WH1STL YEARS FO REWARD W l J l j J I iVTv I - i Nine prep and high school quintets of the lnterscholastic basketball league are awaiting: the first whistle this week to send them on their way towards an in terscholastic champion ship. The coaches have been work ing their charges hard for the open ing contest and each is anxious to get the jump by ushering in the sea son with a victory. The first game of the season will find the Hill Military academy basket tossers clashing with the James John high hoopers tomorrow afternoon on the Y. M. C. A. floor. The cadets, who finished seventh in a league of ten teams last season, have several letter-men of last year in the squad again this season. Goodrich, Captain Jlarold Dagg, Irve Day, Homer Hey ien. Tom Pollard, Dick Ball, Harold Jiobinson, Adolph Heyden and Kussel Page are all experienced men who Inave been issued suits for the 1920 reason. McManua, a new man, has been going great at forward in the practice games and probably will be tne of Coach Dr. Harry Estes' main stays at that position for the 1920 peason. At a recent meeting of the "H" club Bert Hathaway was elected rranager of the team. At James John, Coach Kalmbach is Veil pleased with the prospects for Irre coming season. With'Girt, Toole fnd Captain Hiatt, all letter-men of Jast year back in harness again, and with an abundance of second team men of last Mason, he has been able o build up a first-class team. 5 Both teams have been puting In fiome hard licks at practice during the past two weeks and should be in the best of condition. Karl A. Har mon will referee the game between Hill and James John. The second game of the week will ring together Jefferson and Franklin. The Blue and Gold quintet has been 'Without the guiding hand of Coach Quigley for the past week, as Quigley has been kept away from the gym nasium on account of illness. The players have all been turning out for practice, however, and have played several practice games with the In dependent teams in the city. In a frame with the Vancouver high school J-'riday afternoon the Blue and Gold five lost to their opponents from cross the river by the narrow margin of one point, the final score being 1 to 13. Jefferson's lineup for the game with Franklin is uncertain, but the following players can be expected to get into the fray before it is over: "Watson, Youmans, Gramm, Hendricks, Anderson, Burton, Steele and Froude. .J-'Tanklin has a strong team again this year and under the direction of Coach Carlon the Quakers have been showing up well in practicel Charley King. Babe Thomas, Poulsen. Harry Thomas, Grasshorn and Haldors have all been traveling at a fast clip in the practice games and are fighting hard for a position on the first team. ."Lincoln and Commerce are sched uled to mix in the third game of the week, and with four members of the championship team of last year on the quintet again this season the liailsplitters should have little trouble In getting over the Commerce team, which has been decidedly handicapped due to the lack of a floor to prac tice on. "With Dave Wright. Irve Cole, "Wee , Willie'.' Beck and Dubinsky, members of the championship Lincoln team of last season, again in the lineup, the Cardinal five appears to have the edge on the other teams in the league. Leggett, Harrison, Archie Weln stein, Misch and Gallo are the play ers from whom Coach Irle will select hfs other man for the vacant position on the Lincoln team. : "Peanuts" Pander, Grider and Paul- back are the three veteran players of the Commerce team around whom Coach Murphy is building up a fast team.

Authorities to Gather Today in New York to Consider Partici pation in Olympic Games. . NEW YORK. Jan. 17. Leading hockey authorities of the United States will meet here on January 18 to de cide upon the feasibility of sending an American seven to Antwerp to compete for the Olympic hockey championship scheduled for early In April. It is thought that there would be little difficulty in assembling; a pow erful combination from among tn amateur stars of Boston, PittTburg, Philadelphia and this city, with addi tions from cities, of the Oreat Lakes section, where hockey is an all-winter sport. Efforts are being made by the American Olympic authorities to certain under what conditions the championship will be decided at Ant werp and whether natural or artificial ice will be available. The playing rules and the various nations likely to be represented are also items which need to be cleared up before the American authorities can definitely pass judgment on the project. It is known that there are fast sevens playing the game in Switzerland and the Scandinavian countries. If it is decided to enter one or more teams in the Olympic championship tournament It is probable that there will be a series of tryout games in certain eastern and western city rinks. with finals at Philadelphia or Boston. The question of financing the trip probably will involve certain con tributions from the various clubs or organizations chiefly interested, al though the possibility of fair gate re ceipts from the tryout games has not been overlooked. Chess. . GAMES STIR IIP BRITISH EXGLAXD PREPARES FOR PART IN OLYMPIC LISTS. "Universities Have Several Runners Who Are Expected to Perform Well for Tight Island. NEW YORK, Jan. 17. Reports from England indicate that the English athletic authorities are actively en eaged in preparing for participation in the Olympic games to be held at -Antwerp, tfelgium, next summer. De spite the fact that Great Britain lost hundreds of her best athletes during the war, the "United Kingdom In mak ing selections for the games next year will have more material to draw from tTian ever before, according to experts. This somewhat anomalous situation is due to the creation of a great new body of athletes as the result of mlli , tary training and outdoor life at the front. It is too early to forecast what Cambridge and Oxford universities will produce In the way of athletes, as they have just resumed work in terrupted by the war. Cambridge, -however, has at least one star runner in G. M. Butler, quarter-mile cham pion for England. Butler won his title by cavering this distance in 3 6 seconds, and experts believe he ran lower this by a second. 5; Among the promising new sprint ers Is W. A. Hill, a youngster who 'recently captured the English cham plonship for the 100 and 220 yards. Hill is already a ten-second man in the hundred-yard dash, and it is be lieved that he is capable of doing "better with training. Sergeant Major Mawby also has done the hundred in 9 9-10. Mawby is not a beginner, but lately has developed greatly. - Great expectations are placed in .Jt; G. Hill, anr old-timer, who holds the English championship for the 'half-mile. He has done the half In Xzbo and the mile in 4:15 4-5. He also won the four-mile championship of England in 1910. Hill is about 34 or 35 years of age, but It is claimed in porting circles that he is capable of doing sensational work. It Is ru mored that he has done the mile in 4-.15 la practice. E. H BRYANT.

OF W. MAY PUY COKVALLIS HEARS WASHIXG TOX SENDS NEW CONTRACT. Football Relations May Continue as Result of Move Made by Seat tle Athletic Marager.. PRINCETON. N". J.. Jan. 17. West Virginia. Harvard and Yale hold the places of honor on the Princeton foot ball schedule for 1920, announced by G. K. Murray, general treasurer of the Princeton Athletic association. As In years past, the Ticrers will wind up their season with Yale, at Princeton Ndvember 13. Seven games are on the Titters list for next year, the same number as the 1919 Princeton season contained and only one came will be played away from home, that with Harvard at Cambriiice on November 6. One of the features of next year's schedule Is the fact that Princeton will meet the navy for the first time since 1911, when Eddie Hart'a cham pionship eleven and the Annapolis team battled to a scoreless te. The appearance of the midshipmen in Palmer stadium on October 23 will be the first time the navy has ever played at Princeton and marks a radi cal departure from the policy hither to strictly observed at Annapolis of playing no games away from home, except the annual contest with the army. This is in accordance with an agreement recently effected between Princeton and the naval academy whereby the midshipmen and the Tigers are to play an annual contest, alternately at Annapolis and Prince ton. The season is scheduled to begin on October 2 when the Tigers open against Swarthmore. Maryland state with which Princeton had a game ar ranged for 1917, but which the war made it necessary to cancel, is listed next for October 9. while Washing ton and Iee follows on October 16. The navy is listed for October 23. while West Virginia. Harvard and Yale follow on October 30. November 6 and November 13. respectively. -The 1920 Princeton schedule is marked by the absence of Colgate, which last season filled the place now held by the navy, while Rutgers and It isn't often thst a boxer, after 15 years active service in the ring, gets the chance to battle for a world's championship. Such, .however, will be the case with Jack Brrtton, the Amer ican welterweight champion, when he meets the winner of the coming Lewls-Bash.tm bout for the English welterweight title. Jack shied his hat into the fistic arena in 1904. and ever since then, month in ar.d month out. he has kept busy at his fistic trade. Yet today through clean living and temperate habits Britton is about as? dangerous a rincman as ever. If some of the speed and snap of youth has left him. the loss is offi-rt bv craft, cunning and ring generalship gained through his long campaign In side the hempen ropes. hen Britton crawls throuch the ropes to defend his American title and attempt to win the world's cham pionship he probably will And an old. familiar rival facing him. Every indi cation points to TNewi decisively whipping Hasham for the British title. That will mean It will be Iewis who will face Britton in the battle for th welterweight championship of the world. If the two meet for the world's title It will be the l.'.th time they have squared off against each other. All the bouts went the limit with the ex ception of the last and deciding tilt, when Britton knocked out Levis in the ninth round and rosrainod the American title which Lewis had wrested away from him 19 months previously. Title Clinched In 1 14V. The American welterweight title, which adorned the shoulders of such illustrious ringn.en as Tommy Ryan. Kid McCoy, Mysterious Billy Smith. Itube Kerns. Matty Matthews ami Joe Waleott, was won by Britton by right of conquest, after the title had lapsed through the quitting of the boxing game by nixie Kid here in America. Britton , waded through the ranks of all contenders in 1915 and clinched the title on April IS. 191fi. when he won Referee Jack Burke's decision over Kid Lewis in a 20-round bout in New Orleans. Jack held the title just 15 months, for in a 20-round bout in Dayton. O.. on June 25, 1917. Lewis received Ref eree Lou Rauman's decision over Britton and captured the champion ship. Newspaper critics questioned the decision, for Britton apparently had won. He had Lewis down in the 20th round. One year and nine months later. however. Britton Inveicrled Lewis Into a 20-roitnd chaninionshin match at Canton, O., on St. Patrick's day, March 17. 1919. and after drop ping Lewis three times in the sixth round finally knocked him out in the ninth. It was the only knockout registered by either man in the 14 ring battlew in which they faced each other. Vir tually Britton's knockout of Lewis was achieved in the 167th round, for previous to the encounter in Canton the pair had engaged In seven 10 round bouts, four ll'-round bouts and two liO-round bouts.

Later in the day another wire came from Washington, sa proposition was co other contract, which iiad been mailed to Corvallis. Up to Friday noon this new contract had not been received by Manager Richardson. The Aggies came out flat-footed In favor of the new conference ruling from the. first, and have shown no indication ' of weakening, so that it is thought here that the proposition sent by the northern university must be in accordance with the ruling. ! If it does comply with the require ments of the conference, lt is yet possible that a game between the two institutions may be scheduled. Aggie fans are very much in favor of having such a game, and were very much disappointed when the 1!1 game was called off by Washington. The new proposition is being await ed here with interest.

Cuban fight fans and Amerl can visitors on the island will see i 20-round battle for the lightweight championship of the world staged here at the Morro castle arena next Murch between Benny Leonard, the nresent holder of the title, and Lew Kri wards, champion of Australia. W. J. Thompson, who hails from California, where he claims to have been a promoter In the boxing game for a number of years, arrived here this week bent on setting in motion a scheme whereby the Australian and American lightweight champs may be brought together in a decision match here next spring. Already he has been assured of practically unnmiteti iinan clal backing by certain well-known Cuban planters. Word, has been received from Kd wards to the effect that he is willing to cross the ocean to meet Tonard and by offering a J4S.000 ot Shortly after Johnny Dundee first flashed on the pugilistic horizon his manager. Scotty Monteith. was be sieged with requests from other Ital ian boxers to handle their ring affairs. Johnny soon had quite a stable of them. Most of them could speak verv little English, so Scotty had to ar range a series of sigt.als to direct them in the ring. If he wanted a boxer to lead his left he would say "Spaghetti" or some otler word. If he wanted him to cross his right he would order "Garibaldi:" Wop Loses Ilia KngllNh. Came a night when one of his Ital ians was in the ring and Scotty. as usual, was directing him with his customary word signals. The fellow. however, that morning had got out his first papers preparatory to becom ing an American citizen. He was mighty proud of it. The Italian's op ponent had an open way of leading his left and Monte-ith, quick to see he was a mark for a right cross, sharply gave the word for that blow from the corner. "Garibaldi !" Imagine Monteith's surprise when the Italian, grasping his opponent with his left arm, leaned over his shoulder and. waving his right arm in the manager's face, hissed in a stage whisper that could be heard all over the house: "Hey. Meester Scotty! No Gari baldi! Thces Is Georgie Wash!" - .

Jimmy Clabby. who ha-s been over in Australia for the last four years. Is coming back to this country. Al though Clabby is one of the oldest boxers in point of ring service he still Is a capable performer, judging by the way he has been able to handle the Australian heavyweights. Clabby al ways has to concede many pounds of weight in order to get a match, but it is seldom that he does not emerge on the winnine end.
