DETROIT TIGERS RIDE ELEPHANTS DURING SOUTHERN TRAINING FOR THE "BIG HUNT." HEAVY SEASON FOR TEAM Eugene Campus to Be Scene for Xick Williams' Workout With .. Varsity Players. , UNIVERSITY OF OREGON". Eugene, Ilarch 20. (Special.) For the sec -vi time since the opening of spring practice old Sol was kind enough to shine on the Cemetery Ridge baseball lot and last night saw the Oregon varsity baseball squad working out on the diamond. Continued rains for the past two weeks have made it necessary for the members of the squad to work out in the outdoor gymnasium which has not permitted any extensive work. With the first conference games only a month away practice is going to bo real work from now on, ac cording to plana of Coach "Shy" Huntington. "Xick" Williams' Moose Jaw team of the Western Canadian league are due on the campus the week of April 8 to 16 and the varsity expects to get In some real pre-con-fcrence workouts against the pro fessionals. Coach Huntington will be able to get a good line on the caliber of his team when they work against the leaguers and will also be able to try out his corps of pitchers against real sluggers. Tram Prospects Kxcellent. Coach Huntington is optimistic about the turnout this season and be lieves that the Oregon varsity this year will be one which will come up to those of pre-war days. With the help of a little dry weather he says the nine should be in excellent con dition for the opening of the season. "We will be right up among the best of them." he says, "ard, although the other conference teams are going to be strong. 1 believe we will give them a hard tussle." About ISO men have been turning out nightly for practice and with the better weather which will enable them to use the outdoor diamond the turnout will probably be increased The Oregon te in its early co of its late start, the inclement weath er preventing outdoor workoutB and the covered outdoor gymnasium not permitting anything but simple lim bering up work. Heavy Schedule flapped. The tentative schedule, as arranged by Coach Huntington, calls for eight games to be played in Eugene and ten on other campuses, a total of 18 conference games, which is the heav iest schedule the varsity has had for several seasons. A northern trip will be taken by the varsity In which eight games will be played. The iirst conference games are scheduled for April 23 and 24 against the University of Wash ington at Seattle.

GIST COACH POSSIBLE OLYMPIC STAFF IS LIKELY TO GET HEIP HERE. Students Favor Men Who Have Record of Producing Best of American Talent. SAN FRANCISCO. Cal., March 20. While the coach for the American Olympic team Is not yet selected, it is a certainty that one of the staff will be a Pacific coast man. Right around the bay we have three men who could tackle the job and proouce the results. That a small staff of coaches will accompany the American team is final, as one lone coach coma not look after some 130 trained-to- the-minute athletes. That would be too bitr a iob for any man. Over at Berkeley the students' association is strong for Walter Christie, the oiue and gold track and field coach. Chris tie has had charge of California's ath Ip1k for the nast 15 years, and his record speaks for itself. Although California has lost the annual dual meet with Stanford for the past few years, Christie has not had a wealth of material to work on. but in spite of that he has developed some real stars, including the present wonder, Johnny Merchant, Jackson the juniper, and all the varsity stars of the old days Down at Stanford there is Harry Maloney, whose name is mentioned daily as one of the Olympic games I if ' y ' 5" K4i . . - . , " f . - 7 ' CopjTight, Underwood & Underwood.

Jia loney is a veteran at the coaching game, and has been at Stanford since lHOO. and has made such men as Wil son, the niilo runner, Bonnett, the half miler, and Jlorris Kirksey, the present national 100-yard champion. The other man who must be con sidered is Frank Foster, the coach of the Olympic club teams. Foster put a team in the field in1915 which won both the junior and senior national titles, a feat yet to he equaled by any other coach in the country. A feature of Foster's system is that he can handle boh sprinters and distance runners, and through his own experi ence years ago. is a hurdling expert. It is an acknowledged fact among track and field athletes that one of these men will tutor the American team abroad and the P. A. A. is boost ing the three. two games with the University Idaho nine at Sloscow on April 26 and 27. On tho 28th and 29th Washington State college will be played at Tuli man and on April 30 and May 1 the varsitv is billed to go into action against the Whitman college repre scntatives at Walla Walla. Stanford university is sending It nine on a northern trip this year and they will play here on May 3 and Washington State will come to Eu gene for two games on May 7 and 8 and the annual contest with Oregon Agricultural college will be Btaged here on May 13 and 14 as a feature of Junior week-end. Season Is Lengthy. On May 19 and 20 the University of Washington team will arrive in !iu gene for a two-game series, and on May 21 and 22 the Oregon Aggies will be played a return two-game scries at Corvallis which will wind up the season for the lemon-yellow varsity. T YEAR PROMISES BETTER MONEY THAN" PAST SEASON. More Prizes and Lower Entrance Fees Contemplated by Many Associations. KEW YORK. March 20. Light harness racing never presented a bet ter winter form than at present. All of the racing and fair associations from the Canadian line to the Gulf of Alexico are planning to increase their premiums, while many of them will reduce their entrance fees. At the annual meetings of the circuits and fair associations in the different states, the delegates reported that the race meetings in 1919, except at points where they were rained out In Sep tember, were the most successful ever held, not only in the matter of at tendance but also financially. In the grand circuit, the entrance to the early closing events has been cut to 3 per cent, while the amount charged in the late closers is optional with the members. In the west, many of the mile and half-mile track asso ciations have adopted the added money plan, that is given a specified amount for each purse with the entrance fees added. This plan Is also being adopted in the south, one of the latest recruits being the Georgia fair circuit which will open at La Grange in October and close with the Florida state fair in Jacksonville, after giving meetings at Griffen, Macon, Eastman, Albany and Savannah. To all appearances 1920 will be the banner year for light harness racing. The war cloud has disappeared and while the Kentucky and Maryland lawmakers act as though they were determined to tax racing off the map. In all other states the followers of the horses are free to go and come at will. HARVARD STARS GRADUATE Eddie Casey, Murray, Horween and Ot Iters Receive Degrees.

In its favor it may be said that it educates the mind into habits of regular and connected thought from point to point and aiso forces tnose who are not to be beaten continuously to think at least one move ahead.

College Sprinters From the East Coming to Coast to Get Revenge for defeat in 1915. UNIVERSITY O F CALIFORNIA, Berkeley, Cal., March 20. Athletic activity is humming- at University of California under the stimulus of the agreed dual track meet to take place next month against Illinois. It will be California's second clash against the college sprinters from the east, the U. C. team having won in 1915 by a 71 to 51 score. The number of men who will make the trip has not as yet been decided but it is probable that at least 20 men will compose the Illinois teams, as financial arrangements have been made for that number. In any event, California will enter only the same number of men as on the opposing squad and Illinois will only be at a disadvantage in having made a long trip with a consequent loss of con dition. Illinois has always been one of the strongest representatives In track in the Big Ten conference and upon several occasions has won the cham pionship. They are especially strong in the track events, but are hand! capped by a weakness in the weight events which characterizes most east ern teams. They are well fortified in the 880 with Phil Spink, Illinois' greatest half-miler, running in old time form. Coach W. H. Maloney of Stanford while choosing an all-star team to represent the Pacific coast at the Olympic games at Antwerp. Belgium, this summer, has- named five Cali fornia men likely to be representa tives of the west. His choice in cludes for the quarter-mile Karl Goeppart, ex-20; mile run, A. B. Sprott, '1; high jump.

With two systems in March 20. sports giving Harvard pre-eminence in these lines, the university athletic authorities are now engaged in building up similar codes in other sports which they nope will brine the Crimson success and furnish schoolboy teams, even col leges, a system of play that can be followed out with good results. The Haughton system of football is widely known. It started from noth Ing but the brainy, far-seeing person of Percy Haughton, who did not even have the material to help him out at the onset. The system prospered with age, and with it advanced Har vard's standing in the football world. The Wlnsor system of hockey has proved even more impressive than the achievements wrought by Haughton ized foo'tball. Alfred Winsor has done fully as much for Harvard hockey, and his record of victories over Yale is even greater than those registered by Haughton In football. Yale has won only two or three hockey series with Harvard in from 12 to 15 years. Well wishers of the Harvard crew have been working ever since last fall on a standardized Harvard stroke which Coach William Haines is now teaching the Crimson crews, and which aims to make them travel at least from three to five seconds faster in a mile. So well has this new style of handling the oar worked that when the crew rows daily on Lynn harbor a stroke of 30 to the minute is expected, whereas last year's early practice was rowed much below that ratio. Jack Slattery, the baseball coach, is now pounding system Into the men under his wing. He is evolving a plan of campaign which is expected to bring Harvard stronger than ever to the fore in baseball. Coach Pooch Donovan has been In charge of track athletics at Harvard for some years and has proved him self a good coach, but in the mean time, while Donovan has been de veloping winning runners, there has been no field event coach for any consecutive number of years with him on Soldiers field. Each of these Harvard systems is to have its head, the Becond and freshman teams being coached by men the head coach selects. These methods have brought success in football and hockey and are expected to make their power felt in the other activities. ST. LOUIS KEEPS HORNSBY M'GRAW'S OFFER OF $70,000 IX CASH REFUSED.

His offer of $70,000 in cash and players for Rogers Hornsby has been refused by the St. Louis club, and the possibility of the slugging infield er becoming a member of the Gianta this season, even if McGraw should raise the ante, is very remote, from the way McGraw talked, the owners of the Cardinals have no desire to dispose of their wonderful Rogers. "Not so long ago, said McGraw, 'the St. Louis club couldn't refuse an offer for a single player which in volved so much money. But this year the various owners of the National league are looking forward to a good season and are anxious to build up the weak spots of their teams. They are reluctant when It comes to Belling their best players." "How about Milton Stock coming to the Giants?" McGraw was asked. "The St. Louis club offered Stock to the Giants in a trade which would have been foolish for me to consider," replied McGraw. "I made a counter proposition, which was refused by Branch Rickey," and thus another deal which has been talked about for many weeks falls by the wayside. Next McGraw was quizzed about the deal concerning Kddie Roush and Pep Young, which, by the way, was de clined by Garry Herrmann, president of the Cincinnati club. "Mr. Wodrig, treasurer of the Cin cinnati team, came to me in Havana and offered to trade Roush for Young," said McGraw. "To this offer I replied that I would trade Young to the Cincinnati team provided that in return I received Roush and Larry Kopf. As you know, the deal was called off by Herrmann." Later McGraw was asked about "Rabbit" Maranville. Stories have been printed that the midget short stop was coming to the New York club. "Yes, the New York club made an offer for Maranville, and a good one. too," replied McGraw. "This, like ttie others, failed to meet with success.' So you see that John Joseph is having his own troubles in his en deavor to add strength to his team for the coming baseball campaign, and it is almost certain that he will start the season without putting over a single big deal. He admitted In the course of the interview that he was scouting for a new and capable second baseman, as Doyle is gettlnir along in years, and, while Larry can still slug the ball, he has seen his best days as a fielder.

The United States will be represent ed in the 1920 Olympic games by the greatest exponents of shooting in all the world. The Olympic' games will be held In Belgium, the majority of the events taking place In the Antwerp Btadium, now nearing completion. The Bhoot- ing will take pluce on the grounds especially laid out for this form of entertainment at Beverloo. 30 miles east of Antwerp. This is getting the shooting events quite a distance away front "the big show," but the marksmen who will represent the United States are con fident that the news of their victory will travel the 30 miles in very fast time. Just who will represent the United States on the trapshooting. rifle and pistol teams during the period of July 2 to July 31 is something that is yet to be decided; but we have a fair ly good Idea who four of the repre sentatives of Uncle Sam will be in the trapshooting competition. . Here la "niir Four" I. lot. These four are: Mark Arie of Cham pagne, 111.; WooliolK lienuerson or Lexington, Ky.; Frank M. Troeh of Vancouver, Wash., and Frank S. Wright of Buffalo, N. Y. A number of plans have been ad vanced for the selection of the va rious shooting teams, but none have proven satisfactory. The original Idea on trapshooting was to have each contestant in trie registered trapshooting tournaments of 1919 pay one-quarter cent a target but this plan was not pushed and only 1346 was turned over to the Amer lean Trapshooting association. As the trapshooting body had In formed the American Olympic com ttee that it would take care of the expenses of tho trspsliooters, the only tiling for them to do was to go through with the plan. That the mut ter might be adjusted satisfactorily to the amateur trapshooter. a com mlttee of amateurs was named to sc iect the team and devlso ways and means of seeing that the team got to Belgium. This committee Is made up of Juy Clark Jr. of Worcester. .Mass.; E. P. Mathewson of Annoomla, .Mont and Ralph ll. Spotts o( New Vork with Mr. Clark as the representative to the American Olympic committee 1'lnn Wu for Ten Shooters. The original idea for the sending a team of trapshooters to Itelglum was the selection of the ten highest men in the 1919 averaKes on 211110 or more targets, hut with the failure of the voluntary contribution plan this scheme died too, and the present lilcs of the committee, as wo understand it. is to send not more than ten men who will nay their own expenses and who will agree to practice the conti nental style of shooting for some tune previous to the Olympic matches. No team of trapshooters from the United States would be complete without the four shooters we have already mentioned. They are the four best amateur trapshots In the LiUteit States. Wright is the present ama teur champion of the United Stat and Canada and also the international champion, and the other three are for mer amateur champions of the United States. Each of the four shooters Is the champion of his state. In the 1919 averages Arie led with the remarka ble average of .9780 on about 2 targets. His average was but one one hundedth better than Henderson. Troeh shot nearly three times as many tarsets as either Arie or Hen derson and averaged .9762. Wrlnlit was fifth in the averages with .9725. There Is no getting away from it but that this quartet of shooters can de feat any other four men in the world. A T- vthlt ln. 11 0-1.1. 23-21.

The most successful season which the midshlD- men have ever had in winter spbrts la neartng a close. While the basket ball team lost three games In De cember, having a green team with which to start the season, no other team has lost a contest to any college aggregation, and the number of vic tories in the various branches Is 36 The only contest to be lost during 1920 was the fencing match last Sat urday against the experienced foils men of the New Tork Turn Verein, the midshipmen losing by a narrow margin. The teams in wrestling, boxing, gymnastics, swimming and water polo nave not lost a contest, and the swordsmen have won from all their collegiate opponents. Two sports, boxing and water polo, were taken un for the first time in competition with the other Institutions, and the mid shipmen finished their season in both with clean slates. The boxers won from the University of Pennsylvania and Pennsylvania State college, while the poioists defeated City college of New York and tha University of Pennsylvania. The teams defeated by the Naval academy swimmers included Johns Hopkins, Princeton, Columbia. City college of New York, University of Pittsburg, Massachusetts Tech and Harvard. Coach Henry Ortland.
