Newspaper Page TextTIIE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, JULY 3, 1921 TITLED BRITISHERS 1 FANS Charles W. Murphy Tells of Cold Appreciation. GAME FAILS TO THRILL Neither Slide to Base Xor Zero Bat tle Have Any Errect Upon Sporting Blood. CHICAGO, July 2. (Special.) When Charles XV. Murphy was presi dent of the Chicago Cubs it was his rare good fortune to place in several world series, .and he recalls one of them staged with the Detroit Tigers, where he gave up a part of his per sonal box to Senator Clark. "It was the morning of one of the games at Detroit when a friend ap proached me and asked if it was pos sible to get hold of a couple of seats." said Murphy. "Of course, there was nothing doing, because every game was a complete sell-out, and a per son couldn't get hold of two seats for love or money. "My friend then told me Senator Clark had had a couple of titled ac quaintances from England drop in on him suddenly, and that they were very anxious to see an American world series battle. " 'If that Is the case, I'll give up a part of my personal box to the sena tor,' I replied, and handed the cou pons to my friend. "I also tipped off another friend, who was to sit alongside of the Eng lishmen, to keep watch and see if they were the genuine article or not. "It came along toward the end of the game. Ty Cobb, after reaching first base, made a wonderful slide to second, his leap being, apparently, 30 leet. "The whole multitude leaped to its feet, yelling and shouting hoarse ap proval. It had been a. spectacular feat, no question about that. "One of the monocled, long-mus-tache-d Englishmen, after a suitable grave pause, turned to his fellow and drawled, 'You know, you know, you know, I really eawn't see anything remawkable about that, you know, old chap. That person couldn't have gotten than if he hadn't sat down, you know.' "As soon as I heard this, I knew they were on the level." Another time, according to Mr. Murphy, a party of titled Britishers were visiting Chicago and stopping at the Congress hotel. One of them excused himself frOm the automobile ride over the boulevards and took in a game at the old West Side ball park. He was a famous cricketer, polo player, and had rowed on the Cambridge boat during his under graduate days. In other words, he was a typical English sportsman, and an earl to boot.. He stuck out seven innings, get ting more bored every moment. The Cubs had scored a run in the opening inning, but during all the remaining rounds the scorekeeper kept posting zero after zero on the board. The earl was waiting in the lobby when the remainder of the party came in from their jaunt. He met them at the clerk's desk, and as they waited for their keys, said: D'ye know, I had a stunning treat today, ah. ah. a stunning treat. 1 saw a real game of American baseball, bah jove, ah, ah, a real game, you know. Ah, ah, ah, it's a modified game of our own rounders, our own rounders like we used to'play when we were young toppers, you know, you know." At this moment the room clerk gave the earl a prod on the back, and he turned in amazement, eyeing the young chap through his monocle with a blank stare. "Beg your pardon, sir. but what was the score when you left?" In quired the clerk, smilingly. "Ah, ah, a million or so to some thing or other." replied the earl. As we glanced through the pages of the national commission's final re port,' we came across the name of Player Cole, belonging to the Detroit club. Instinctively, we tiought back to the days of Pitcher Chalmers of the Phillies, Pitchers Packard and Pierce of the old Cubs and others, and the thought struck us that quite a salon could be made out of ball players who bear the names of auto mobiles. The following nine players appear In the ex-commission's report:' Cole. Detroit. Cunningham, Detroit, llaynes. Cardinals. Ford. Braves. Knight, released to Little Rock by the Braves., now with Oakland. Monroe. Giants. Mitchell, Dodgers. King. Giants. White, released to Waterbury by the Giants. ALLS BATTED IXTO BAY Loss Warrants Erection of Rig AVire Miiik Around Alcatraz Diamond. SAN FRANCISCO. July 2. Uncle Sam has paid more than $100 during the last three months for baseballs batted into the waters of San Fran cisco bay by soldiers and prisoners playing at the United States army disciplinary barracks on Alcatraz is land, near here, according to Colonel Osmun Latrobe, education and recre ation chief for the Sth corps area of the army. To prevent loss of baseballs in the future the colonel recently ordered the soldiers to erect a big wire mesh barricade around the Alcatraz dia mond. The only section of the little rocky island on which baseball can be played is so close to the water that a good hit, it is said, can be caught only by a fielder in a boat. For a time recently the average of lost balls was seven to a game. SKI JUMPING TOMORROW Tournament to Be Held on Snow Slopes of Mount Rainier. TACOMA. Wash.. July 2.

For many seasons there has been a gap in the infield of the Pittsburg team, to which the poor showing of the Pirates was blamed. Last fail the Boston Nationals traded Rabbit Maranville to the Smoketown nine for Southworth and Nicholson. Placed at shortstop, the pride of Holyoke has so ably filled his position and tightened up the Pirates' defense that they have been playing real championship ball and are conceded a good chance for the pennant. The diminutive Maranville has another valuable quality as a comedian he is second only to Nick Altrock. The photo shows Rabbit Maranville field'ng. - Henry, Spokane, won from C. A.

STADIUM WORK IN PROGRESS Stanford to Have Playing Turf Ready for Rig November Game. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal., July 2. Grass will be planted on the play ing field of the Stanford stadium, now being built here, as soon as steam shovels have excavated to a level of 23 feet below the surface. Already the workmen are down more tha 12 feet. By planting the grass early It is believed the playing turf will be ready for the football "big game", between Stanford and the University of Cali fornia next November when the sta dium will be dedicated. As the earth is taken out of the big pit, it is banked on the sides where the seats will be built. On the outside of the embankment there will be planted flowers and shrubs which bloom in the fall during the football season. BALL LEAGUE. BILLIARD CHUMP SAILS HOREMANS DECLARES HE WILL BECOME U. S. CITIZEN. America Most Wonderful Country In World, Says Belgian; Lands Nation's Rule. NEW YORK. July 2. Edouard Horemans, the Belgian champion bil liardist of Europe, sailed from this city last week on the Red Star liner Lapland for his home in Antwerp to visit his mother and sister. He plans to come back to the United States early In September, and it is is intention to make this country his permanent home if he can persuade his mother and sister to accompany him. In making out his income-tax report before sailing, Hortmant classified himself as a resident .lien, indicating that he claims America as his residence. Just 'before going aboari the Lap land Horemans said: "I will come back in September- prepare- for any thing that may come in the way of billiards. I hope then to realize my ambition and get a matoh with Willie Hoppe for the world's champiousiiip. I will be ready to play any and all who care to meet me. "I wish that you would say for ine that I think America is the must wonderful country in the world. Even though I have traveled nearly all over it I cannot begin to realize its great size. Its big cities, wonder ful rivers, lofty mountains and big trees on the Pacific coast are mar velous. One must see them to appre ciate them. When I recently jour neyed from San Diego to Seattle, a trip of four days and three nights, I could not believe when we arrived in Seattle that we were no nearer New York than when we started. When I come back I hope to make this my permanent home. I have grown very fond of this country. "The people here have treated me with the greatest cordiality and hos pitality. They are great sportsmen. They appreciate ability even though it be shown by a stranger to their shores. I do not believe there are any better sportsmen to be found anywhere in the world. When 1 first left Belgium to come here I had no idea of what a truly wonderful coun try I was coming to. I had heard a great deal about it. but all the de scriptions that had been furnished me did not begin to do it justice. I thought that I had seen most of it when I was traveling around in the east and as far west as Cleveland and Chicago. You can imagine my sur prise when I went as far as California and the state of Washington. "When I came here I wanted to prove to the people of this country that I was worthy of a match with Mr. Hoppe. I wanted to convince the billiard public that I would play the balkline game. For this reason I was anxious to meet the best profes sional players in matches. I played all who would meet me. and I hope that I succeeded in proving my right to play Mr. Hoppe. I feel that I have succeeded in this, and think that when I return in the fall that Mr. Hoppe will agree to play me; at least I hope so." Grey Lag Gets Coin for Owner. Grey Lag. winner of the Brooklyn handicap, started 13 times as a 2-year-old, winning four races, finished second five times, third twice, and unplaced twice. He earned $17,202.

LARGE PURSES AT STAKE Horses Arrive in Salem for Train ' lng Preparatory to Ore gon's Big Event. SALEM. Or., July 2. (Special.) Racing history will be made on Lone Oak track during the coming state fair, if predictions of veterans of the turf materialize. This opinion is based on the number of blue-ribbon-ers already entered; on the large number of owners of high-class horses who have signified their inten tion of bringing their animals to alem, and by the unexcelled condi tion of the track. Entries for the 2:20 trot, 2:24 trot, 2:18 pace and the 2:24 pace closed Tuesday, June 28. with a margin of another 24 hours for the Canadian horses whose entries came by mail. Purses for these four races are for $800 each. The latest closing will be August 1. which will reveal the names of some of the finest horses of the west and northwest, which will compete for the highest stakes of the week of the state fair, from Septem ber 26 to October 1. California Honn Entered. In the later class will be the strings of Rutherford and Tryon, both of California, who have become known to Oregonians through their previous entries. The best horses will be en tered tor the two purses of $2000 and the two for $1000. Horses already in Salem for the annual event are now being given regular work-outs, activities of train ers up to this time being restricted to "jogging" their animals. Among the horses preparing for the fall races are the string of Merrill Bros, of Cornelius. Or.; string of G. A. Mills, Portland; horses of A. E. Hardin, Glenwood, Wash., who en tered his string on an eastern circuit last year; A. H. Lea's Valentine Jr. and Woodcock's Hal Paxton Jr. Track Is Plowed. Preparatory to the fall races and the previous several months' work outs the track was plowed early in the spring, followed by constant working and rolling. As a result, state fair officials contend that the track will compare with any other on the coast, or for that matter, in the whole country. Improving its appearance is a new white fence that completely circles the inner side, with a high woven-wire fence bor dering the outer side from the grand stand to the track's northern ex tremity. Both horseman and the race-loving public welcome the announcement that XV. P. McNair of Douglas. Ariz., for the past seven years, baring last year, official starter at the Oregon state fair, is to again preside in that capacity. Show Plan Tentative. Plans for the night horse show are only tentative as yet. Follow ing the resignation of J. D. Farrell from the state fair board early last spring. H. C. Brown of Portland, secretary of the North Pacific Racing association and editor of the Western Breeders' Journal, was named to take his place, and to him, therefore, will fall the superintendency of the horse show, work which was undertaken with so much success by Mr. Farrell. It is understood that the assistannn of the latter was sojicited for this jear, dui mat nis trip to jiurope pre vented him from accepting. It is thought that most of those who ex hibited mounts last year will be rep resented again this season, and to interest some of the owners of larger stables in California, Secretary Lea contemplates a trip south during the coming month. Auto Events Planned. The last day's racing programme will be shortened to allow for auto speed events, plans for which are still indefinite. The racing programme as already scheduled, which, of course, is subject to change in its arrangement, is as follows: Monday, Sept. 28 2:10 pace (added money) three heats. $i00. Tuesday.

When the Japanese team completes its second trip through the eastern states, the men will return to Seattle, where they will be the guests of the University of Washington for ten days before sailing for Japan, July 14. This is the first trip abroad for the present team, although Waseda has previously sent three teams to America, paying a return visit the year following the University of Chi cago's Japanese tour every four years.

Tanaka, cen ter fielders on the Waseda team. In the Tokio college league, Tanaka is Known as the Babe Ruth of the league. He holds a record of six home runs in six games during last winter's season in Japan, but thus far he has failed to solve the Amer ican puzzlers for a circuit clout. G. Taniguchi, the Japs' star left nander, has been likewise unable to duplicate his' record made in Tokio auring his American trip. Last win ter he pitched two no-hit, no-run games, but thus far every American team has scored on him. His ef Jectiveness is due mainly to a swift drop, with which he has often retired his opponents with three strike-outs in a row. Taniguchi is 20 years old and a freshman. Wasedo has two good right-handers in S. Matsumoto and F. Arita. In the last of the three-game series with the University of Chicago, Arita re placed Taniguchi in the seventh in ning with the bases full and two out. He struck out the next man up, but when Chicago filled the sacks again in the eighth, a single drove in two runs and lost the game and the series for the Nipponese. Matsumoto is a short little fellow, quite in contrast to J. Kuji, the catcher, who is probably the tallest man on the team. In practice Mat sumoto has to pitch uphill to his lanky receiver, but when Kuji crouches behind the plate, he picks .off the speediest balls and unwinds himself in ample time to whip them over to second. Captain S. Takamatsu. the left handed first baseman, is a lively player and eastern baseball men told him he was worth a substitute's berth in major league ball, according to H. S. Benninghoff, an American pro fessor of political science at Waseda, who is acting as business manager of the American tour. T. Kato and T. Oshito cover left pnd right field, respectively; N. To monaga plays second and T. Kubbta scoops up the ball in lively American fashion at short. The third baseman. J. Ishil, is one of the best all-around men on the team. J. Nagano is the reserve catcher. Coach Tobita T'sea English. When Coach Tobita runs over to the third base coaching lines as his Nipponese ball players come to bat, he doesn't let loose a flow of Japa nese, but yells instructions in the native language of the great Amer ican game. All of his players, who are now touring the country, speak English in some degree and all of them use American baseball parlance on the diamond. "Even the youngsters in Japan call Werner Petterson Co.

The good tobacco taste lasts so long a small chew of this class of tobacco lasts much longer than a big chew of the old kind. That's why it costs less to use. Any man who has used both kinds will tell you that. Put up in two styles Ouf and 'Strike' in English." Coach Tobita said here recently, wnen hia i nine played the University of Chicago .1 three-game series. "Of course all students in high schools and univer sities in Japan are taught English, but out in the fields where the small toys play ball, they use the English ttrms. Baseball is the Japanese na tional game, too." Coach Tobita. who is 35 vtari old. has been playing ball for more than 15 years and has been a professional . coach for two years. He was a starT,, at Waseda, which is located at Tokio. and captain of the team in 1909-10. His early diamond training was under nerDert H. Hunter, a former New York Giant, who had a large cart in the development of baseball at Wa seda. Baseball, however, has been. played in Japan for 40 years. Coach- t Tobita said. "The Japanese have two seasons of ball." Coach Tobita said, in explaining tneir enthusiasm for the game. "We have. a spring and autumn schedule. each lasting about two months. In Tokio we have a league of four uni versities and play a regular schedule. Waseda has about 10.000 students but comparatively few of them take part in athletics. Coach Tobita said. Members of the team expressed great admiration for the American universities, especially the large gym-. rasiums which Japanese universities do not yet have. Japanese Never Show Anger. The Japanese seem to have a dif- ferent psychological slant on base ball than the Americans. The whole team plays with constant smiles . wreathing their countenances and a mistake means only an excuse for'' another display of pearly teeth. They, are an alert lot of ballplayers, never--still, and always eager to get at the ball. There is none of the serious r expression or the half-angrv , look which is seen on the faces of most . r American ballplayers in the middle of - -a hot game. Real pleasure in playing the game crops out all over the Jap team. So eager are they to "Get Into the game" that twice during the last game with Chicago players collided in the field zn their scramble after the ball. Each time they came up smiling and took the mistake good-naturedly. The Waseda players say they have. enjoyed their visit immensely. This , is the first visit to A'merica for this ... year's team, many of them being treshmen. Practically all of the men ., are merchants' sons and all are tak ing commercial or political courses. ' "We like your big universities and especially the gymnasiums," M. Naka-;, mura, scorer and graduate manager, said. "We do not have such big gymnasiums, although we have all"' kinds of athletics, such as football, baseball, track and field meets, boat- ing and tennis." The team w'll sail for Japan July -14, after a two months and a half tour of America, TOURNEY IN FALL PLANNED VOLLEV BALJj SERIES PROVES POPULAR WITH CLUBS. Business Men Are to Have Contest ..
