THERE arc a good fish In the sea as ever were caught, and it' a Joke to say that Jack Dempsey can't get any work in his specialty. Wonder what the old-time champion would have aaid. If they'd been offered .10 per cent of what Dempsey could make, if he wanted to. In the ring during th coming alx years. The trouble I that the champion la holding out for big purses. He and a lot of other fighters have ex ailed Ideas of their ambition values since the row on Doyle's Thirty Acre a year ago. If he and his manager were alncere in their offer tc take on the top-notcher among the challengers he would keep busy. show good sportsmanship and inci dentally take in a lot of money. . Of course, it Is pointed out that Dempaey haa "signed" or "agreed" t.. take on the four leading chal lengers. But. except for the Bren naa bout, which at this writing seems pretty sure to be held at Michigan City Labor day. "signed" and "agreed" mean nothing. They r off-set by the Jokers in the articles" that makes the bout It- contingent upon time, place and purse matters still to be settled. And as long as the champion de mands a month's output from the m'nt for his divvy there Is small chance for settling on the purse, let "Vlone the rest of the essentials. Dempsev can fight once a month If he wants to. All he ll need to do fore,t hlg mon,y he got with c,rpen,i,r mn Se sa,i,fied to fight for comparatively small purses, then he'll find the promoters willing to take a chance. Dempsey may not be able to shake the plum tree for another f 3H0.000, hut the notion that he'll have to go back to riding th brake-beam because he has fought himself out of a Job is a Joke. Probably Jack could take on Wil lard. Brennan. Wills and Carpentler, if he won the first three bouts, and average close to $2M.O"0 a flfrht. cieartnic up MU0.000 in the series. The Income tax would take most of it. of course, but even at that Demp sey' share of his own earnings would be a useful sum. It Is well known that age doesn't help a boxer axyway and It behooves Jack to gather his rosebuds while he may. to make hay while the sun shines and get while the getting Is good. If he takes on the big four In succession and lays aside a con siderable fortune which is well within the possibilities and certainly according to every rule of sports manship -th champion can then lay Mmmz W ucbdsse puy, suted lf '' '"0 CR1TISI1 COLVMBIAf TEAMS country.

" It will not be a long wait. Demp sey la at or past the peak of his form. Others are coming on and the man that will beat Dempsey is long cut of knickerbockers. Dempsey himself says he expects to have some young fellow, a lad with plenty of ambition and a wallop, to hit him on the chin some day. . And with the color line erased to let Wills have a crack at the title. Jack will have no excuse to avoid meeting the latest dark cloud on the horlxon. This cloud Is MIstah Tut Jackson, who has been knocking them over r.ght along. He needs experience, n ayhap. but a year or so will give him that, and a year is not so likely to help Dempsey.

EUST-WEST GAME SURE COXFEIIENCE DECIDES FOK NEW 'YEAR'S CONTEST. Representative Coast Team to Be Selected Two Weeks After Thanksgiving. SAX FRANCISO, Aug. 12. (Spe cial.) An east versus west game will be played on New Tear's day, according to a unanimous vote of the conference of representatives held this morning at Berkeley. Just where th game will be played, whether at Pasadena, the Stanford stadium or Bxposltion park, head quarters of the University of South- , ern California, has not been decide nd possibly will not be decided until the conference meeting that is to take place in Portland, Or., next December. No definite promise was held out to the Pasadena tournament, of roses committee, although Pasa dena submitted a working1 basis proposition and the conference coun tered with another proposition in volving other issues. Stanford ia atlll anxious to have such a game played at the Stanford stadium. There is a general feeling on the part of Stanford, as well as Cali fornia, that a game on the home stadium would be preferable, since the northwest colleges could not play at home so late in the year. They are quit willing to go to , Pasadena. f It was the vote of the conference that a "representative Pacific coast football team" be selected by tele graph vote. This vote Is to be taken two weeks after Thanksgiving. It is pointed out that the team so se lected will not necessarily be th championship team of the Pacific coast, but the one that In the minds of the majority should be named to represent the west. The manner of naming the eastern team was not even discussed. It was the consensus of opinion that all details with regard to han dling such a game must be taken over entirely by conference and that outsiders will not be permitted to have anything to say. The matter of limiting; the salaries to be paid conference football coaches was brought up. but action on this point was passed until the next session, for which no date has been fixed. ST. LOUIS MEN INEXPENSIVE Both Clubs Shy of nigh-Priced Players; New Yorkers Opposite. Should the St. Louis teams the Browns and the Cardinals win the major league pennants this year they could not be charged with buying their way into the world series by purchasing; star players from other clubs, says the San Francisco Chronicle. In the event of failure to repeat last year's triumphs the Giants and Yankees would be defeated by teams which Include many castoffs, de veloped into winners through clever management. Of the Giants, who bear the title of world champions. Heine Groh cost 50.000. Bancroft t75,00. Meusel 140.000 and Nehf $.15,000. according to general belief, w hlle the owners of thje Yankees are said to have paid nearly $400,000 for l.uth. Mays, Baker, Scott. Schang, Bush. Hoyt. Jones, McNally, Pipp and Shawkey. The St. Louis clubs got many of their star-players in trades and some of them. Including Slsler, did not cost their dubs a cent. I 0 0-YARD DASH .RECORD TIED Winnipeg Sprinter Equals World Mark at Canadian Tourney. CALGARY, Alberta, Aug. 12. Cyril Coaffee of Winnipeg this aft ernoon equaled, the world's record for the 100-yard dash at the annual meet of the Canadian Amateur Ath letic association by running the dis tance In i i-i seconds in the final heat. The time constitutes a Cana dian record for the distance. The former Dominion record was 9 4-t seconds, held by Bobby Kerr, of Hamilton. Ont. Coaffee defeated C. Armstrong of Winnipeg and J. H.

Two of the best lacrosse teams In British Columbia . will be im ported here next Sunday to give Portlanders an idea as to how one of the most thrilling' of all sports is played.' The grame- will take place at the ball park and the start ing time will be 2 o'clock. The teams will be the Victoria and Vancouver tens of the British Columbia lacrosse association and it will not be Just an exhibition! but a reg-tilarly scheduled game. More than that the championship of the association depends on it. It will wind up the season for both teams and the one that wins will be cham pion. Only half a game separates them, Vancouver having that lead, although Victoria was champion last year. Both are amateur teams, and the players are' making this trip miflnly to Introduce the sport in Portland. Lacrosse can almost be called the national sport of Canada, and the favorites in Vancouver and Victoria are the amateur teams, not the pro fessionals. The amateurs have been playing much better baLl this year than the professionals and have been outdrawlngr them all through the season. Lacrosse is a real man's game and no half-hearted players need apply. It is Just about as fast as Ice hockey, and the principle of the game is the same, the implement of play being a hard rubber ball that is shot through the air by the players, armed with clubs that have nets on the end. Just as with the puck in Ice hockey, the ball must be shot Into a coal at the end of the field to- count a point, and there Is a goal tender, as in the Ice game. Players in lacrosse give and take hard knocks and 'every now and DEMAREE AND ADAMS, OLD MATES, RIVALS THIS WEEK Friends Will Be Pitted Against Each Other When Portland and Seattle Meet on Indian Lot. S" EATTLE, Wash., Aug. 12 (Spe cial.) Two 'old battery mates. Al Demaree and Jack Adams, will be pitted against each other ;his next week, when Portland and Seattle hook up on the Indian lot. When Seattle shipped Al to the western league last fall, Adams was one of those who spoke as follows: "Somebody is making a mistake. One of the smartest guys in baseball is Demaree; we ought to keep him around." . Well. Bill Klepper brought . the former major league star back to manage his club, and the old boy stepped out with two victories in a tow. proving that Adams was rigm Demaree can pitch better with his head than a lot of our high-prized youngsters can with their arms. Yep, the Indians are expecting trou ble from Demaree when the veteran brings his battler north this com ing week. Seattle will be somewhat crippled In that Deacon John will be among the missing. Adams was badly hurt at third base in a game against the Oaks, and It will be ten days be fore he Is able to catch. The skipper will manage the club trom the bench, however so the club will get the advantage of his strategy jtuff. Ferdy Schupp, the new southpaw from Chicago', will face the Beavers :n the coming aeries. Ferdy arrived Thursday and pronounced himself n the best of trim. Schupp won five cames and lost cne with Kansas City this week, and he won four out cf ten for the white sox. jack Adams played against the famous routhpaw when he was in his prime t.nd John thinks his new acquisiion will win in this league. Armistice day. 1922. will be a red letter day on the Washington foot ball calendar. The University of Cal ifornia will be here to oppose Bag shaw's huskies on that occasion. Already the grid fans are chatter ing about this big battle. There Is a feeling going the rounds that the Bears are going to lose at least one game this year. And' Washington supporters are hoping that the Armistice affair is the one the forces of Andy Smith will drop. Baggy Is Just returned from a tour of the east and is get ting squared away for football practice. Tony Savage, a former Dobie star, will help Baggy coach this year. Ton was a star end on some of the Scot's best teams and knows how to teach football, having won championships for Lin coln high school.

One lacrosse game-in Eritish Columbia recently w,as so exciting that it ended In a. riot with players, police and spectators all merged into a struggling mass. No particular love Is lost between Vancouver and Victoria teams that play here Sunday. Bobby Rowe, ice rtckey player and chief concession aire at the baseball park, who with Charles E. Burnett Is making ar tangements for the game, has been asked by the managers of each team to see that they don't have to put up at the same hotel. If they vere herded too much into each other's company there might be trou Lle before they reached the field. The playing field in lacrosse Is 250 feet long and as wide as desired and the ball is in play all the time, whether In hounds or out. That re sults in terrific scuffles to get pos session of it when some player hap pens to 100 it ouisiae. vvt.t.ov TO pr.ivT TRfil'TI Scenic Wonderland . to Be Made Paradise for Anglers. LA GRANDE, Or.. Aug 12. (Spe cial.) The Wing, Fin and Fleetwood club of this city, the Wallowa Rod and Gun club and the Elks of Union and Wallowa counties are co-operating with the state fish commis sion in stocking the Wallowa and other lakes of Wallowa county's scenic wonderland. It is the aim of the. organizations named to make Wallowa lake the premier fishing place in the United States for trout and a stocking programme has been outlined that will assure permanent stocking sufficient to take care pf the drain anglers wilt make on the supply each year. Within the next two years 2,000, 000 eastern brook trout will be placed in the lake, according to present plans, as a start toward it. This year 500,000 eastern brook trout and 20,000 rainbow trout will be placed In the lake. GLENCOVE. N. Y., Aug. 12. Rain compelled postponement of the final match of the women s metropolitan tennis championship today1 between Mrs. Molla Bjurstedt Mallory of New York and . Mrs. Marlon Zinderstein Jessup of Wilmington, Del. The ! match will be played tomorrow. waters has greatly excited yachts men of the northwest. ' When the KeatHA ' praft vnt south a couple of weeks ago to compete in the southern California I regatta many of the racing btigs were skeptical about the Sir Tom's' chances. Geary's pride and Joy has 1 been the big thing in racing circles I here since she was built. But in j both San Francisco and Los Ange- les, the yacht clubs have been gun- j ning for Geary and his champion, j the best architects assisting in de- signing boats to compete against J the Seattle craft. Well. Geary . went , down and showed 'em. He won the first three races handily, taking the final event Thursday after giving the rest of the field a four-minute start. Geary slipped over the starting line ten feet ahead of the gun and had to turn around and start all over again. But the Thomas buzzed right along, caught up with the rest of the boats and sailed down the home stretch all by herself. A great little ship is the Sir Tom and a great little skipper ia Ted Geary. Jim Boldt is out of luck like a clam digger on a marble hallway. Jim's prize southpaw. Lefty Burger, has been going like a focest fire all spring. The Pittsburg Pirates, being in need of pitching talent, sent Bill Hlnchman all the way out from Smoky town to see Burger work. Lefty started against Vernon. What the Tigers did to him was a-plenty. - They rapped him for 15 or, 18 hits and Lefty was lucky to escape with his life. Then Bill stayed over for another look. Seattle started Burger again. This time the Seattle prize looked I no better, Adams taking him out in the ninth when the Oaks got two runs , off him and had the tieing marKer on imra rjase. Bill is still sticking around, but Jim Boldt is" mourning his bad -fortune. Unless Burger bobs up with a no-hit game or something Pitts burg is not likely to dig up any large sum for Burger's services. Washington rbwing fans are won dering who their next coach will be. The field has narrowed to four men Elmer Leader, brother of the former tutor; Ward Kumm. "Rusty" Callow and- Brous Beck. Kumm is thought to have the lead, although the other three men have their friends. Brous Beck, an old Wash ington stroke, has offered to coach the .crew for nothing, but it's thought the university authorities will not take advantage of the offer. Darwin M eisnest and Professor Leslie Ayer are attending the con ference meeting in California. Jakie May Spoils Portland's Whole Day. GAME IS SENSATIONAL Vernon Southpaw Helps Put Runs Across and Holds Iio cal Boys at Finish. BY U H. GREGORY. Oh, that Jakle May! What are the curse of drink or the yellow peril or the bolshevik menace while Jakie May ' lives? The language lacks invectives to apply to the fel low. A bas Jakie May! Rouse mlt him! Page the guillotinier! This Jakie fellow beat the Beavers out of a sensational' a ball game yesterday as ever was played. He wrecked a perfect afternoon by his confounded . pitching in the pinch He Jumped ice cold in the 11th inning into a contest that was as good as gone for the Tigers, saved it for them in that session, helped smear , three Tiger runs across in their half of the 12th and then in the Beaver half, after three hands were on and only one down, held the home boys to two tallies, one shy of tying it up. - Dick Cox Fanned. He went so far as to anti-climax a thundering finish by fanning Dick Cox for the third out. He maneu vered Lefty Leverenz into the toughest hard-luck licking that pitcher ever took. Today he grabs even the headlines that Leverenz should have had. Down with the cuss! The score "was Vernon 5, Portland 4, in 12 innings, but the score was a minor particular in that game The big fact was that the Beavers lost when they had it won, mainly because of the stupendous pitching i of smaI1 Jake. To lose such a Strug by , one run was worse than ! dropping it by oO. Two were on bases when Cox whiffed. The situation leading to these re marks was this: The score at the opening of the Portland half of the 11th was 2 to 2. The Tigers had made two in the first on three suc cessive scratch hits after two were out and Leverenz,' backed by won derful support, had blanRed them thereafter for ten successive innings. The Beavers had made one off Dell in the second on Poole's double and a single by Brazil', and had tied it in the eighth when Charley High pinch-hitting for McCann, knocked the ball over the right field fence Dell Is Removed. And: now in the 11th good old Lev erenz, first ' man up, had singled, taken second on a wild throw to first by Dell, and. actually had stolen third, all with none out. Only one run. was needed to win the ball game, there were three chances to bat ft in, and Gressett, a left-hand ed hitter, was pawing at the plate Dell had one strike on him and two balls as Leverenz stole third. Bill Essick called time, removed Dell and sent in Southpaw Jakie May. That managerial hunch of Bill's was the break of the day. Jakie began curving at Gressett over . the outside corner. Two strikes." Then a ball, making three balls. Then a round-house hook and Gressett whiffed. Wolfer, an other left-handed batter, was com ing up, but Al Demaree lifted him and sent in Hale, who bats right handed. Jakie immediately and expedi tiously . walked Hale on purpose with four pitched balls. That brought Dick Cox up and Dick is a right-handed batter. Jakie deliber ately walked Cox, too, which filled the bases, with two out. only one run needed to win, and Jimmy Poole at bat. The crowd shouted for a long fly and Jimmy lifted one all right, but it was a pop-up that Chadbpurne, play Ing close to cut off lne run" nauea wim ease. i-u cuauuc fr Leverenz to score, so he held his base. Brazill, a third left-handed batter, was facing May, and him Jakie coolly, nonchalantly whiffed " curve balls, retiring the side, May Bants Safely, Then the Beavers cracked. French led off by bunting and reached first when Leverenz' throw hit him. KI1;- ott had him off first by a mile, but threw wild, and he went to second. Murphy slashed a bouncer that Sar gent couldn't, handle. Jakie May came up to sacrifice and bunted safely. Chadbourne' hit perfectly to Paton for an out at the plate, but his throw was too. wide for Elliott to hold and French and Murphy scored. Leverenz muffed a thrown ball and Chad took second. Schneider walked. Smith flied to Cox for the first out, but it took Bodie's long sacrifice fly to tally May with the third run. Locker lined to Cox and ended a terr'ble inning. But with a three-run lead against them, did the Beavers quit? They did not. Sargent started by gaining first on a walk. Paton whiffed, but French erred on Elliott's roller and Rip King, the third Portland pincher of the day, smashed safe across sec ond and filled the bases. Gressett was up, but helpless against South paw Jake, so Demaree, seeking an other right-handed pinch hitter, brought out Jimmy Middleton. And Jimmy delivered. His smash to right tallied Sargent.

Instead of fighting out their struggle for Davis cup preliminary honors, the tennis teams of Australia and France went to the movies or nursed ailments today. The postponement until Mon day, because of rain, of the two singles matches that remain of the tournament in which the Australians lead by one match, was satisfactory to both. With the respite that came with the rain, the Australians expected to be in better shape. In Patterson's case especially, the rest should bring him on to the courts Monday fit for play. Should O'Hara Wood's trouble become seriously worse, it was pos sible, the Australian captain said, that Anderson might be able to re place him, returning to the assign? ment which O'Hara Wood took over after Anderson's eleventh-hour ill ness developed on Thursday. The Frenchmen were in fine fet- tie. but concurred readily m tna postponement.
