MIES DECIDED HIT
TO FIGHT ED MARTIN
EIRE
PERFEC
BT DICK SHARP.
Oscar "Tiny" Herman, the bier Astoria-heavyweight,
will test his class
against that of Denver Ed Martin at
the Mllwaukie arena over the ten
round route, September 21.
The Milwaukie officials signed the
young Goliath yesterday for a eetto
with the famous negro veteran, who
registered such a successful come
back, against Battling Hector last
week.
That Herman will give Denver- Ed
a much more thorough tryout than
Hector is a certainty. Hector, eight
years in the game, a veteran himself,
and never regarded as a real fighter,
didn't figure to give Martin any kind
of a fight if the latter was right. The
question in the minds of everyone
except Ed himself was, was he right.
Hence the signing of Hector for his
first bout. If he couldn't lick Hector
he couldn't lick anybody. It took
Denver a couple of shakes of a lamb's
tail to sink the Seattle heap.
On the other hand, Herman is
young and a comer. True he may
have not displayed any championship
class in some of his previous battles
here yet he has at least always been
:)ere at the finish or right close to
the finish. Sam Langford was the
only one ever to do any damage to
Herman and before he put over his
haymaker Sam took plenty of
punishment himself. .
Herman has a heart which is half
of the game and something that 99
out of 100 heavyweights haven't got,
for some reason or other. Martin Is
by far a cleverer man than Sam Lang
ford and proved that he still packs
a stiff wallop. But can he go the
ten round's like of yore? He cer
tainly looked good the other night.
After the fight Denver said that he
felt like traveling 20 rounds. He
steps ten with ease in the gymnasium
every day so why not in the ring?
But then again fighters do lots of
things in the gym that they don t do
in the ring. At any rate Martin will
get a real rest September 21. His
comeback will either be a wonderful
success or his victory over Hector
1 just a win over a poor fighter.

Battling Ortega is losing them on
foubs again. After seemingly re
forming the Mexican middleweight
full out of line Labor day and lost
in the first round of his scheduled
ten-round fight with Gorilla Jones
at Colorado Springs, Col. The fight
hbd been under way but a minute
when Bat sank one below the belt
and the referee gave Jones the fight.
This blow cost Ortega plenty. He
had igned for four fights at Colorado
Springs, one of them with Mike Gib
bons. He beat Walter Caldwell in
three rounds in the first fight and
was setting retty for the other
three when he blew up against Jones.
Otta Wallace, the Milwaukie light
weight, won a ten-round verdict over
Johnny Noye of St. Paul, well knowa
in Portland, on the 3ame card.
Tony Palmer, the wop middle
weight, who gave Jimmy Darcy two
stiff battles here last year, is boxing
with great success in the south. He
has won every fight since he left
Portland and is beating the best of
them. He put Ed Warner of San
Francisco away in five rounds at
Tulsa, Okla., Labor day and is boxing
every week.
Bud Ridley will tangle with old
Roughhouse Charley Burns in Van
couver, B. C, September 14. He will
sail for Manila immediately after the
fight, accompanied by his wife and
Joe Waterman, his manager. Ridley
is signed for a series of fights in the
Philippines. It will be the first fight
for Burns in four or five years.
Frank Parslaw, who was some
pumpkins In the old four-round days
here, is in Spokane and wants to try
a comeback with the rest of the
boys. Frank used to muss up Jimmy
Darcy, then Valley Trambitas, Al
Sommers. Joe Swain and other boxers
who were top-notchers then, in great

Jimmy Darcy is on his way to New
Orleans to fight "Happy" Littleton
the latter part of this month. Little

CLEVELAND. Sept. 10. When
Johnny Kilbane, world's feather
weight champion boxer, steps into
the. ring tt Dunn field here on the
afternoon of September 17 to face
Danny Krush of Baltimore in a 12
round bout to a decision, it will be
the first time he has defended his
title since he knocked out George
Che-ney at Cedar Point, O., September
4, 1916.
Kilbane is to receive $60,000 for his
end, win, lose or draw, or possibly
more, as he is working on a 50 per
cent basis. This is said to be the
largest amount ever guaranteed a
boxer below the heavyweight rank.
and very few heavyweights have re
ceived that much for a championship
match. Frush is to receive J2jOO
his training expenses.
Kilbane was 32 years old last April.
Despite this supposed handicap, he is
confident he will retain his title.
Frush is 22, or about a year younger
than Kilbane was when he wrested
the championship from Abe Attell on
February 22, 1912, at Vernon, Cal.
Although Kilbane's title nas not
been at stake for five years, he has
fought any number of no-decision
bouts.
Frush is regarded here as his fore
most opponent. He has defeated some
of the best in the featherweight di
vision, and has a far better knockout
record than Kilbane. In his list are
several who went the limit with the
champion. One of these is Artie Root
of Cleveland, who came dangerously
near winning the feathrwight cham
pionship in a bout here a year ago,
when he landed a punch on Kilbane's
chin, only the ropes saving Johnny.
Frush has knocked out Root twice,
while the latter stuck ten rounds with
the title-holder.
Kilbane has the advantage over
Frush in reach, his being about three
inches longer than the challenger's.
He also has about four Inches the
better of him in chest measurements.
Frush is about an inch taller and is
julet a little stockier about the legs.
The measurements of the fighters
follow:
Frush
Height :06.
Reach 65 inches.
Chest, normal 33 inches.

ries and finished second and third in
the other contests. Gordon K. Doug
lass, the 16-year-old surprise in th
.decked canoe sailing events this year,
finished close behind Friede in th
two latter races and took second in
the first race, ahead of the Interna
tional champion. ,
Froling has been after Friede'
crown for years. He has tried several
tricks with his boat, the Doris III,
and this year brought to Sugar Island
four sets of sails. The Doris III is
larger than the usual 16-foot decked
canoe, which under the regulations is
permitted 30 feet of sail. Froling s
Doat In this year's races carried a
times as much as 117 feet of sail, the
limit allowed on a sliding scale for
the greater beam and length of th
canoe. -
The greater sail, area of Froling's
boat proved a decided asset in the
early races of the trophy series in
light winds, but the other competitors
as well as racing board members
agreed that the sliding scale for sail
area was absolutely fair for average
winds. In a stiff wind, as witnessed
in the third and final race yesterday,
the smaller boat had an equal if not
better chance.

42d annual regatta of the American

A step that may lead to the en
trance of scores of young golfers to
the championships of the United
States Golf association has been tak
en in admitting to membership the
Lincoln Park Golf club of Chicago,
the first public links club to be ad
mitted. The Western Golf associa
tion has long had many public course
clubs as member's and some of the
public players have made excellent
showing in championships. Richard
Dockenkamp of St. Louis, for exam
ple, having been runner-up two yearr
ago to Harry Legg for the western
amateur title.
It was largely through Robert
Gardner of Chicago, a director of the
United States Golf association, that
the Lincoln Park club, which boasts
only a nine-hole course, was taken as
a member, Gardner, who has twice
won the national title, has worked
for some time to obtain the entrance
into championship of some of the
clever players produced on park
courses.
"Chick" Evans, present national
champion, played his first tournament
golf on the public course at Jackson
park, made the leading 18-hole park
course for many years through the
personal effort of John Barton Payne.
Nearly all of the many excellent
players of St. Louis have been de
veloped on the links in Forest park,
a free course, while championships of
no mean caliber have been held on
the public links in New York, San
Francisco, Chicago and other cities.
Soccer Player Wants Money.
James McMullan. one of the best
soccer players of the Patrick Thistle
team of the Scottish league, where
he played halfback, has refused to
re-sign with the team, who got him
as a Junior player for $25. but wants
$25,000 from Newcastle United, one
of the big English teams, for his
transfer. McMullan wants to share
the money, which Patrick Thistle will
not do, and the player has asked the
Scottish Football association to fix
the transfer fee.
Not only the Rose City Hundred
trapshooting tournament in itself, but
also the way it was handled, has been
coming in for a good deal of favorable
comment among the trapshooting fra
ternity. This tournament, which was
staged for the first time in the north
west by O. N. Ford at the Portland
Gun club September 3, 4 and 5, proved
a great success from every standpoint.
The weather was all that the shooters
could ask for. The traps worked to
perfection, not a breakdown occurring
In the three days. Each day the pro
gramme was concluded by 3 o'clock,
thus enabling the out of town shoot
ers to do some visiting on the side,
while here.
Seven states and British Columbia
were represented in the shoot and
every scatter gun enthusiast who at
tended said before he left that he
would be back in April for the Rose
City Hundred number two
Many Special Events Shot.
The event had many special fea
tures, the main one being that it was
the first time that one of its kind had
ever been staged in this part of the
country. Another most desirable fea
ture was the dividing of the shooters
into two .classes, each shooter handi
capping himself on the score made at
16 yards. The cash prizes, instead of
trophies, perhaps made the biggest In
dividual hit. There were 16 cash
prizes in all, each of $25 donated by
members of the Portland Gun club.
After paying each of the winners ilO,
or ?160 to all, the remainder was put
in the bank at 4 per cent interest and
thus there will be 661 for the sports
men to shoot for in the second Rose
City Hundred event in April.
W. G. Warren, champion of Call
fornia and Nevada, won the high aver
age of the whole tournament, making
the excellent score of 442 targets out
of 450. This is real championship
shooting. Warren won a special cash
prize for turning in the high gun for
the three days. C. N. Ford, manager
of the Portland Gun club, won the big
event, the Rose City $100 special.
breaking 100 targets straight.
The most remarkable shoot race of
the tournament was the J. B. Troeh
team event on 350 targets at 16 yards,
150 targets in three handicaps, 500
hots per man, and 1000 shots per
team. The event was. won by E. H.
Keller snd O. N. Ford of Portland, the
two breaking 943 out of 1000; Keller
missed 28 tar hawks, while Ford
missed 29. The Portland team, com
posed of Keller and Ford, defeated the
crack California team. Warren and

CARAVAN HEAD'S WESTWARD
Brooklynite Gets One for Idaho
With 2 8 Families.
Recently there left Brooklyn, N. T.,
"modern caravan" consisting of 28
families, numbering 98 persons, bound
for Idaho where each family is to
settle on a ranch given by the state
of Idaho. Unlike those who opened
the west these people rode in auto-
obiles. There was one machine for
each family, with a trailer attached.
It was William D. Scott of 236
Decatur street, Brooklyn, who con
ceived this "back to the soil move
ment" and he is leading the tourists
to the promised land. Among1 the
many things given to Scott and his
party In departing from Brooklyn
was a silver rifle by the Winchester
Repeating Arms company. This rifle
is a duplicate of the one used by
Buffalo Bill during his career as a
Fullback, and Running Mate for

WHITMAN COLLEGE, Walla Walla,
Wash., Sept. 10. (Special.) Eleven
of last year's 12 lettermen are ex
pected to greet Coach Borleske on
the Whitman gridiron next week for
the first football turnout of the 1921
season. Only one or last season a
veterans, Dutch Garver, fullback, was
lost -through graduation.
Besides these 11 veterans, several
of last season's scrubs and some new
candidates will contest the 11 po
sitions. Some of the men already
have returned to Walla Walla from
the harvest fields to get into trim
for the season, which opens against
University of Washington October 8.
A careful check on this material,
however, does not make Whitman's
prospects so bright as they may seem,
despite her 11 veterans. Dean, Holmes
and Schroeder, ends, should return,
but fierce competition is expected for
their wings.
There is no likely candidate for
fullback at present, giving Borleske
the task of training a new man.
Bennie Comrade, captain, veteran of
three seasons, will fill his old hole
at tackle. Fritz Corkrum, the diminu
tive quarterback, weighs only 128
pounds and is believed to be the light
est quarter in the conference.
Earl Tilton, a shining light in the
backfield last season, gives promise
of starring again this year. Shep
herd, Emigh, Blackman, Heritage
and Boyd, linemen, are other veterans
who will report.
Joe Burkes, the Maize and Blue
scrappy center, would have been eligi
ble for play, but found it necessary
to leave school, giving the Whitman
tutor another job of finding a new
hub.
So, outside of finding a new cen
ter, a fullback, two ends, a running
mate for Tilton in the backfield,
possibly one or two other men, put
ting them into physical condition,
welding them into a machine with
team play, Coach Borleske has noth
ing elee to do.
Goal posts were erected on the
Whitman field this week and the
work of laying out the rectangle for
the men next week was begun. .

The British boxing public Is en
gaged in its usual pastime looking
for a white hope. They will have to
go on looking. Even ' the brightest
optimist in England shakes his head
sadly when the heavyweight question
crops up.
England has not even the glimmer
of a white hope. Joe Becket went
out like a moth in a candle before
Carpentier had scarcely shaken off
his dressing gown. Today, British
fans mention Beckett's name and
grin. The sporting editors over in
Fleet street are in a quandary."Ve
can't get a picture of Champion Joe
standing up." they say. "All we get
are In the prone position."
Maybe that ie a little unkind to
Joe Beckett, but it shows what the
British public think about their cham
pion. The funny thing Is that there
is not an Englishman in the country
who can beat Joe Beckett at his
weight. Moran did so, it is true, but
popular as Pittsburg Frank may be
over in England, he is not an Eng
lishman. Jack Bloomfield, the Islington mid
dleweight, who is recognized in Eng
land as middleweight champion of
Canada, nearly had Joe out and asleep
in ari exhibition bout with the 12
ounce "pillows" a few weeks ago, and
no doubt Roy McCormlck could do
the same to the champion if Beckett
would accommodate him.
The Carpentier bubble has burst.
London went quite off its head on the
dav of the fight. British people do
not take half the interest In boxing
that people do over here. That will . S
explain why they thought the French
man to be a cross between a wizard.

PENNANT AWARD PROTESTED
Baseball Manager Says Standard
OH Should Play More Games,
Chet Lowry, manager of the Vet
erans of Foreign Wars baseball team
in the Interstate league, said yester
day that he will protest any award
of the league championship to the
team representing the Standard Oil
company until that team shall first
have played the Veterans team and
South Parkway.
The Standard Oil team, declared
Lowry, has played a schedule of only
eight games. Other teams, including
the Veterans, South Parkway. Monta-
villa, Portland Woolen Mills and
others, have played 14 to 15 games.
For that reason, he declared, it is not
just to award the championship to
Standard Oil until it at least has
played and defeated the Veterans and
South Parkway. Should Standard Oil
lose these games, then it would be
tied with the Portland Woolen Mills
team for the league leadership.
Bush games scheduled for today
include the following:
Nlcolal Door company versus Montavilla,
at Columbia park at 1 P. M.
Arleta versus South Parkway, at Colum
bia park at 8 P. M.
Woodlawn at Washousral.
Vets, versus Fields Motor company, Sell
wood, at 2:30 P. M.
Bankers All-Stars at Salem penitentiary.
Standard Oil at Clatskanie.
