PT DICK SHARP.
Clever boxers have been a stum
bling block for Joe Gorman, the
snappy Portland puncher. Spanish Joe
has v:or. a lot of fights and lost a
few In his brilliant career. In jrlanc
insr over his record it will be found
that the only men able to score a
win over Joe have been clever mixers.
For Instance, there was Danny Frush.
Ianny made Joe look like he was
tied to the rins: posts at the Heiliff
theater one winter niirht a year or so
ao. Gorman has improved a preat
deal since then, but boxers still have
his f?oat.
Aiain, take Frank le Mai one and
"Weldon Wins. Malone didn't beat
Gorman here, but Joe didn't do much
to Frankie. Wins' is even up with
Joe in the matter of scoring decisions
over each other. "When Winp didi
beat Joe he did it because of superior
cleverness. Perhaps today Joe would
win hands down from "Tourney."
l.onKT Rrnch nothern.
Anyone with a Ions reach and box
ing ability bothers Gorman. If he
ever reaches h is opponent he ceases
to bother Joe. but until that time
may cause him a prood deal of dis
comfort. Joe is handicapped by having
an exceedingly short pair of arms.
Give him an inch and a half or so
more reach, and Gorman would he
one of the best men in the world.
His admirers say he is that now.
Without a doubt Gorman is a great
little rinvr man. and a few more vic
tories will place him in the position
of having: to seek new fields to con
quer. Another thins i that Gorman
Is at a bad weight. He can do 13')
pounds with ease and probably
weighs between that and 132 fur most
of his fights. It is a question whether
the ch'inky little scrapper can do bet
ter than 12S pounds in a pinch. His
weight means that he will have to
fight light-lightweights, while his
height and reach are those adapted to
a bantamweight.

E. J. Herr Expresses Opinion That
So Much Smoke Must Indi
cate Sonic Fire at Least.
LOS ANGELES, Cnl., Dec. 11. (Spe
cial.) Kdward J. Herr has arrived at
the realization that baseball. v as
played by his 1919 Salt Lake Pacific
Coast league club during the las!
three weeks of the season was not
what it had been up until that time.
It is Kduardo's honest opinion that
several members of the 1!U9 l!ee ag
gregation knew how to keep a secret.
Herr. who was piloting the Utes
when Hill Uumler. Harl Majiert and
Jean Dale strayed from the straight
and narrow, now knows that he was
bossing one clique of pastimers who
could keep things to themselves.
The present Detroit scout and per
sonal business renresentat ive of
Frank Navin. is In Los Angeles for
the first time since July, when he
departed on a lengthy foraging expe
dition, lie Is on the coast to com
plete arrangements whereby Pitchers
Holling and Cole and First Raseman
Hlue will join the Detroit outfit in
the spring.
Today Jlerr found time to give his
version of the catastrophe of the fall
of i:n:. which rocked the piling of
the 1'. C. L.
Kmpioyincr his limited king's high
way Knglish. Herr commenced br
aying that he was the most surprised
man in the world when he first rend
bae-bull for mure than a quarter of
century," elucidated Scout Herr at
the Hotel I-ankershim. "And I had
to wait until 1019 before I found out
that It could be accomplished. The
world series of that year proved that
baseball games could be thrown, and
from what I have read there surelv
mnst have been something pulled off
Jor an effort made to arrange things
on my Salt Lake team.
"Hill Itumler, Harl Maggert and
Jean Inle are very good friends of
mine, but If they've done anything to
injure the game they should be pun-
lsned severely. 1'ersonaliy, I saw
nothing particularly wrong with
their play agajnst Vernon in our last
two series of 1119. Furthermore I
heard nothing,
"There has been a lot of talk about
Humler retiring from the game dur-
in - the -last series between Vernon
antl S:tIt Lake In Los Angeles. I'll
settle that right now. Rumler had
a bad finger and I personally told
him not to run the risk of adding
to the injury.
"In the face of all this there must
have been some kind of a plot con
nected, for 1 understand that several
of the Itoys have been cjuoted as say
ing that they knew about -Ht. I'm only
speaking of hearsay, however, for
I've been away while the whole tiling
lias developed.
"It's a leadpipe 'cinch that Mag
gert was paid $500.
"Uumler was forwarded $200 for
some reason or other.
"Dale pocketed $r,00 for what he
says was in payment of a loan.
"Kd Spencer says he was offered
$1700.
"Marty Krug is reported to have
said that he was approached.
"Where there is so much smoke
there must be some fire.
"My only wish Is that every guilty
one be run down and kicked out of
the game.
"It might be said that the club did
not 'bear down' against Ver::on. nor
did it play hard baseball against Oak
land in San Francisco the closing
week. I tried to keep the men going
but we were out of the race and it's
a difficult task to hold a whip over

High-Handed Manner in Which Promoters Were Running Affairs
-Would Have Meant Clean-up Sooner or Later.
BY HARRY B. SMITH.
S"
AN FRANCISCO. Dec. It. (Spe
cial.) The crusher is on the four-
Jound fight game in San Fran-
Cisco. Knraged by the murder of
police officers In Santa Rosa by a
part of the gang that included K. O.
Kruvosky and Spud Murphy, boxers,
the San Francisco police commission
was not slow to act. At a secret ses
sion Chief of Police O'Brien was ad
vised that all fight permits mus be
revoked and that no further fishts
be allowed.
That ends the matter, at least for
the time being.
As a matter of fact, the police com
mission does not issue permits for
fights. All that would be necessary
would be for the commission to issue
an order to the police department to
enforce the law that does not permit
oT fights where money is paid the
participants. Hut the problem has
been solved easier by withdrawing
permits.
Prize-fight promoters know this
means the same thing and as they
have been proceeding along illegal
lines, there Is nothing to do but bow
their heads.
Three Club In City.
There are three fight clubs In San
Francisco that stage shows every
Friday night at Dreamland rink. It
virtually has enjoyed a monopoly in
the boxing ga.ne.k The club owners
include Frank Lawlor, wno is also ;
secretary of the pliwy grounds com
mission of this city; Dolph Thomas,
matchmaker; Frank O'Shea. a con
tractor, and Frank Schuler. who is
better known as a wrestling pro
moter. K. J. Malatesta. of the real estate
firm of Canepa & Malatesta, has con
ducted the Royal Athletic club, a
small club that has staged shows
every Tuesday night at Garibaldi
hall in the NortVi P.tach section of the
city. -
The third club Is the Association
club, which puts on Wednesday per
formances in the Mission. Al Young
and Fred Hawes. the latter an as
semblyman, are the chief owners of
this club.
The better class of fight fans agree
cheerfully that the sport has for a
long time been ln need of a cleaning
up. Too many of he boys have been
contented with an income from
fiErhting and have loafed for the bal
ance of their time. Loafing has bred
evil and made possible gangs such as

Not All Are Thugs.

Save meir muuCJ.
But there are enough of the ruffian
typo to call down censure. It Is for
this reason-that the closing oi prue
fighting is generally commended.
Possibly at some time In the future
it will be opened again. But when
that time comes around there will be
safeguards placed around the sport.
The boxers, for one thing, will be
forced to work as well as fight and
thus keep themselves occupied.
There will also be a better line on
the promoters who will not be able
to handle affairs In the high-handed
manner in which they have proceeded
in the past.
Of course, fighting is' illegal under
the state law, but if some sort of city
commission could handle the sport,
with the profits going to some worthy
charity. It would be a far better
scheme.
When boxing resumes if that sort
of thing is finally permitted you can
look for a new deal all around a
clean slate and boxing staged as it
should be handled.
"Wrestling: Given Boost.
The death of four-round boxing
will be a boon to wrestling. It has
ever been the case that with fighting
on the rocks, the wrestlers have come
along to clean up. Schuler has had
as his wrestling associates the same
men with whom he has been con
nected In the fght game Thomas and
Frank Lawlor.
Whether that Is going to make a
difference remains to be seen. It Is

However that may be. Schuler has

Monday night. Karl Caddock, one
time .champion wrestler of the world,
is to meet Jimmy londos at the Civic

Schuler argues that a lot of the fans

Will Be Abandoned.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL
LEGE. Corvallis. Or., Dec. 11. (Spe
cial.) "Every man In college an ath
lete," has been adopted as the slogan
of the physical education department
of the college. Not only will the
promising athlete receive the atten
tion of -the physical director at Ore
gon Agricultural collt-ge. but more
than 2U00 other students will receive
equal consideration, according to the
new policy of the college.
It has long been the idea of Pres
ident Kerr that all of the students,
and not only the select few, should
receive the physical development
which the department affords. Hut
it was uot until recently that the
chief executive's idous in this respect
were fully put Into effect.
It is upon Director Rutherford, the
new head of the physical education
department, that the responsibility
of pfirrvlnir out these Ideas has been
placed. He has appointed Ralph Cole
man, formerly an Oregon Agricultural
college athlete, to direct this work.
1'rlr.es to Me Offered.
This work will be accomplished
from various angles. Not only wi.l
the vaj-ionx class.-s and varsity teams
do considerable to accomplish this
end, but with the intramural contest
npnriv nan more students will be
taken Into this work. Coleman, work
ing under the direction of coacn
Rutherford and the intramural coun
cil, will schedule contests in the va
rious events so that every man in col
lege who belongs to some campus or
ganization will be trained in the va
rious sports in order to compete in
Intramural contests. Cups and other
prizes will be awarded for the win
ners in the games In order to Instill
greater Interest.
During the cross country season
more than S0O men competed in the
Intramural events. These men rep
resented every fraternity, club and In
dependent organization on the campus
ln addition to the large number oi
men participating in the Intramural
events, many men registered for cross
country as part of their regular col
lege schedule. A college ruling re
quires that every man take at least
two yfars' work under the depart
ment of physical education. This work
may take the form of some athletic
or corrective gymnasium work.
Interest Is Kern.
Coach Rutherford is largely re
sponsible for the interest being taken
In the various athletic events. Never
in the history of the instlution has
the Interest been as keen as It is
this year. Rutherford has had con
siderable experience in work of this
sort, as well as serving as coach in
some of the large colleges and uni
versities in the east.
Realizing the importance of this
work, the college has enlarged the
staff of the physical education de
partment which now includes, in ad
dition to Coach Rutherford, Rook
Coach Rathbun. Trainer Butler.
Ralph Coleman, track coach and di
rector of intramural athletics, and As
sistant Coach Hager.
In addition-to these men several
students have been hired as part-time
instructors in the regular gymna
sium classes. Other coaches and in
structors will be added as condi
tions warrant the enlarged staff.
Schedule Is Arranged.
With the start of the basketball
season a schedule has been completed
whereby the -various classes and or
ganization teams will compete against
each other for the college honor.
The largest turn-out. for basket
ball ever witnessed at the college was
the freshmen squad which lias been
practicing each day. More than 100
men are now competing for honors.
If they show the same fight that the
football men did. it is to expected that
most of them will remain ln the line
up for the rest of the season.
Interest In athletics Is keen, not
only among the men of the college,
but also among the co-eds. who also
are out in full force. Basketball,
volleyball, tennis, hockey and lr.door
baseball are the center of attractions
for the co-eds. Picked and class teams
are out for practice dally under the
direction of Kdna Cocks, director of
physical education for women. V
Tennis Is Popular.
Interest Is also keen ln tennis, and
has warranted the formation of a ten
nis club and the action of the stu
dent body . ln recognizing tennis as
a minor sport. A number of tourna
ments have already been planned' by
the tennis enthusiasts.
At the present time, of course. In
terest is largely centered around the
varsity basketball, wrestling and box
ing teams. Track and baseball pros
pects are not overly bright at the
present stage of the season.

Crimson Sought Contest Willi Cen
ter After Ilearln"; of Defense
l"scI by That Squad. x
ET MALCOLM MacLKAX.
CHICAGO. IV-c. U. (Special.)
When it comes to making .-in effort
to increase its football knowledco
few elevens have anything on Har
vard university. The Crimson U
continually trying: to fc-tt (rames with
teams which have something nov, I
or new. and as a result the Harvard
coaches pick up things beneficial to
their own cause.
The Crimson had heard about the
remarkable defense that the Center
college eleven had perfected last
year. The result was Harvard S' hetl
u'.ed a game with the Kentucky boys
this last fall.
Center's line proved too light for
Harvard's big forwards nd it couldn't
brine; its crack oefense into perfect
play. I5ut Center did show Harvard
a surprising attack, which doubtless
was closely watched by the Crimson
coaches and dissected for future use.
Oregon had an attack that ii3
nationally famous and Harvard
learned much about it when the Crim
son played the Webfoots at l'asadena.
It will be remembered that Harvard
tried to schedule a game with the
crack Xotre Iame eleven for this fall.
The S'outh llend management had to
cancel It because they tlidn't like the
idea of goinr to "West I'oint and then
back to Cambridge.
Harvard especially wanted this
battle because it had heard about the
remarkable fashion in which Notre
Iame"s ends toppled the opposing
tackles. No pair of ends in the
country have this trick down to sucli
a point of perfection as the Notre
lame wings: in fact, I know of no
other team that tries the same tac
tics. The play was thought out and
perfected, I believe, by former Coach
Harper and Coach Kockne has fol
lowed it up.
They call it the "side-swipe." Here
is how it works: When Notre Dame
has the ball the two ends go forward,
running with their knees far apart.
They look highly awkward to the
unknowing visitor. However. as
thev rock hack and forth- thev are in
ia oositlon to throw .heir whole,
pos'tion to
weight to either side in an instant.
The bear toward the opposing
tackles, who are the first and most
dangerous men in breaking up a play.
On breaking through, a tackle pivots
and there is an instant when he ia
off balance. At that moment the
Notre Dame end hits him, putting
him entirely out of the play.
There have been instances where1
the South IJend end first put the
tackle out of the play, got to hia
feet, took off the halfback, acting as
part of the secondary defense at that
side of the line, and then nailed tiie
last man, the quarterback, putting no
jess Ulan lliree uaiiHeruua men OUL ui
j the play. Uacliman once made a
touchdown on a play like this when
one of his ends eliminated three
opponents.
So it is no wonder that Harvard
wanted that Notre Dame game. This
one play -would have been worth the
effort.
I recently had a chat with Ernest
Quigley, National league umpire, at
the minor league meeting''' in Kansas .
City. Quigley has for years officiated
in a dozen and more football games
of importance each fall, and has Keen
elevens play all over the country.
According to him, Notre Dame has
had the crreatest elevens he has ever
seen jn action. He states that the
team is wonderfully drilled both in
, defense and in attack.
Quigley also spoke about Hugo
j jezdek. who is now coaching at Penn
. ytatei an(j having sensational success
there. "I used to do a lot of football
j officiating around Kansas, Oklahoma
and Texas when Hezdek was coach-
; ln(- at Arkansas." said Quigley.
"He picked up the direct pass and
perfected it. used it at Oregon, and
now is, I believe, the only coach in
the east who employs it exclusively.
He seems to have the same success
wlth.lt down there that he had else
where." Quigley. who officiates at more
athletic events during a year than
any other man. past or present, loves
football. He points out that, al
though there are scores of mori
chances to make boners in football
than ln baseball, the varsity young
sters, from 19 to 22 years of age.
make few blunders. They have less
time to think on a play than a base
ball player enjoys, too.
