HAS HIGH PRAISE FOR O s : PACIFIC NORTHWEST Amateur Of ficial .Declares There Is a New Era Dawning in Athletic Out Thit Way and That the Day of Specialising Haa Gone. . . (Special OorrMposdrat of Th. Joerael.) ' Boston, July 18. A new era )s to ' dawn for clean and general amateur athletics throughout the middle and far wt. The day of specialising one branch to the detriment of the aeneraj scheme of all-round athletics la fast waning, and the Peciflq district la des- , tinad, once the movement Is really going well, to wrest from the eaat the athletic honors so long held In this section. In brief, this Is the belief of Joseph 8. Maccabe of Boston, president of the A. A. V., after a Journey of over 10,000 miles, made In the interests of the gov ern'ng body, from which he has Just 1 returned. . . Also, as a result of his In vestigations, a new association . - was formed the Rocky Mountain, an Impe tus given to the formation of municipal athletic associations, and difficulties such, as that caused by the fighting clubs which are In control In the Pa cific A. A., were attended to and are : In a fair way to be smlcably settled. Over the possibilities for the expan sion, Mr. Maocabe. Is enthualastlo re garding th aectlorf under the Jurisdic tion of the P. A. A., and was emphatic In stating that 'once the - clubs there got working In the broad field the pres tige of the east would be In danger. He aw the athletes of the cosst bad ad vantages equaled nowhere else, area Work ef Individuals.' He Instanced many cases, particularly those of Parsons and Dan Kelly, as shewing what could be done with Indi viduals, and used the great meet on July 4, when over 100,000 people gath ered In Golden Gate park to witness what hs characterised as one of the beat handled athletic meets he had ever soen. as 'a fair sample of what organisation effort could do. In the matter of the boxing or fight ing clubs In Ban Francisco. President Macoabe stated that the matter had until September to work Itself to a sat isfactory conclusion. Ho was severe 'In his criticism of these clubs, stating they were nothing more than profes sion bodies, and that the competitors oxraxs sciatica. Rev. W. l4t Riley, LU D., Cuba, New York, writes:' ''After fifteen' days of excruciating pain from sciatic rheuma tism, under various treatments. I was ""Induced to 4ry Ballard's Snow Liniment; the first application giving my drat re - lief and -the eecond entire relief.

The clubs were thoroughly discussed by Mr. Maccabe with the leaders of athletics in the city, and It was the sentiment that the boxing should be eliminated. ' . The Olymplo club, which has dons so much for athletics, and such men ss William Greer Harrison and John El liott head the movement, and It Is said that the work of cleaning out the stable will be accomplished without having the national board1 step In. , ? Boeky Koantata Association. . The first thing done by President Maccabe on his tour of Investigation was the creation of the Rocky Mountain A. A., which was brought about by Joining Colorado, Wyoming, and' New Mexico With Utah, the latter being taken from the Pacific A. A. Denver. Is the headquarters for the new body, and from now until September- the association stands .organised with five good under bodies and a pos sibility of there being eight In this connection there Will probably be' an other division formed by taking Kan sas City, the state of Kansas, : North Dakota, Oklahoma, Nebraska and Iowa, to be known as the Southwestern A. A. Athletics generally through -the mid dle west and farther out were found in a very healthy condition. In : St. Louis particularly this. was so; athletic meets of alia were held every week. In Kansas City the interest was keen and the local athletic club Is building a new house and is In possession of a hand some country club In the park district. The clubs in . the vicinity of Kansas. City were all working to Taake the sport thrive. . San Francis Sftnatloa. ..In San Franolnco, considering the re sults of the earthquake, everything was satisfactory except where the special isation of boxing, was held -to be tba thing. The Olymplo club hss recovered from the dlsaslor and . already has signed contracts for a new clubhouae, to take the place of the one wrecked, to cost 1411.000. The P. A. A. Is doing good work In the way of establishing outdoor- municipal - -gymnasiums, and two, if hot four, are In full operation. The Paclflo . Northwest organisation la, according to Mr. Maccsbe, a model body. Its entire aim being to encourage sport for sport's sake and to encourage everything under the head of amateur. He said that In Ita management the true amateur apirlt prevailed as he had seen tt nowhere else. The athletes were In receipt of nothing mors than their exact traveling, expenses, being obliged to furnish everything in the way of equipment out' of their own pockets, received no training expenses,' and even when traveling did not come In contact with a penny. The entire standard of the way the games and everything was conducted by the body was distinctly high. -- - ' ' , - - The Centraf A. A. wss In a -very healthy condition, and the officials were found earnest and intelligent in their work - for -the. advancement of general sports. The movement for municipal gymnasiums and' athletio associations In the Central is well defined and plans are- well along In both Chicago and Milwaukee, ss well as other places. Wherever the movement haa started the governng body has had the support ef the leading men of the cities, and In most rases the leadership has been taken by them.

OARSMEN WERE GIVEN ' - SPLENDID RECEPTION Seniors Displayed Marked Superior ity Over the Other Crews in An nual Regatta Mr.- Wilbur Haa High Hopes of Winning in East President Ralph Wilbur of the Port land Rowing club, the Junior crew (Allen, Starr. McNlckem and Loomls). and Oloss, Harley and Pattern, arrived here this morning from Nelson. British Columbia, ' where they . participated In the fifteenth annual regatta . of . the North Paclflo Amateur 'Rowing associa tion. The victorious oarsmen look the picture of hearth and report having en Joyed a glorious time, aslds from win ning laurels in me regatis. "Our boys showed wonderful form In the races." said Mr. Wilbur. "While I knew that they -would make a good showing, I did not think that thetr vic tories would be so decisive. The seniors demonstrated that they were in a class by themselves. lit their - race - they started out at 17 stroke clip, while the James Bay crew of Vlotorta started on II. Our boys rowed a short distance at 17.- and then dropped to II. which they maintained to the finish. The James boys dropped from II to II and finally to 10 and war so badly beaten that they practically gave it up at the finish, where they were seven lengths behind.' The Portland crew - finished strong, and when they came up to the Judges' boat they dldn t show any signs of fatigue at all. "I am vary anxious' to see them do well In the east. If they sow the same form at Lake Qulnslgamond on August 11 that they displayed at Nelson on Saturday, the crew that beats them will break the world's record. Coach Mur phy has provided his men with dumb bells and boxing gloves in order mat they may exercise on ths train en route. Of eourse, the long trip across the con tinent will be a handicap to the men, as will the change In climate, but I ex pect to see the seniors hold their own against tne eastern aracka. "Our trip to Nelson was one of pleas ure.! The people did everything In their power to enieriain us. un in way home we took all . of -our men up - to Coeur d'Alene lake and held a regatta on Tuesday. . We sent the seniors away from Spokane with our best wishes.' The victorious Juntos crew become seniors now by virtu of thslr victory at Nelson. The trophies won at Nslson were put on exhibition at the Commer cial club this morning. Mr. Wilbur stated that steps -would be taken at once to raise the money to defray the expenses of ths crew on Us eastern trip.

' '.;"'- v SPORTING GOSSIP. . : Hal Chase, the ex-Paciflo coast field' er, la the surprise in the major leagues this year. - In the race for base hits he haa mad It a three-cornered affair with .Lajole and George Stone, That Chase got Into such a plao la the sur prise ef the season. When he went to the majors he was considered a first claaa fielder but only a fair hitter, yet new he has proved himself on of the greatest of the swst artists. Chase seems to have struck his stride since May. It Is not heavy hitting that Is msklng the record: he Just chops ths ball over tbe heads of Infieldern or beats out bunts, all of which, of course, count In the average as If they were doubles and triplets. In addition to-getting the hits Chase is fast on th bases, and can beat many a hit that would be a sure out for a majority of batters. When Chase started -to make his record he was regarded by pitchers as a lucky hitter, but luck does not last all season. and his hits are keeping up. If it was all lurk It la not likely that Chase would be tied with the ohamplon. Nap Lajolo, with th number of has hits. '. e e . . , John L. Sullivan says fighting Is a poor vocation. He probably would ad vise no young man to "scoept a post' lion" In th ring. e "Park Wilson was th only Seal to secure more than one hit off Henderson yesterday. , Park had three hits to his credit. ..:.. ' e ''' " " Rub Waddell had been ' acting Ilka a human being for about 10 days. That Philadelphia air gets them all sooner or later. W shall have to watt till Rub gets on th road again. Henderson has proved his worth as a reliable pitcher. .'. Berry can. always be depended upon to pitch a good game.

Portlanders are very proud erer the splendid victories won by the local oarsmen, and there will be more cause for rejoicing after the eastern regatta on August 11. -...'. e .-'. Jeffries refuses to flrht Bam Seraer for the championship. The botlermsSer -claims he doesn't like fighting, that he's too iasz to train and doeon't need tbe money. At leest one of those reasons carries some weight. . President Berf haa not vet reached a deolelon in th cas of th League vs.. rrxe wuion. charged with maktna Jo Corbett work. Parke has promlaed' to pmuce complete evideno to show that Brooklyn was willing1 that Brother Joe should come to the seal stance of . the distressed Seals. If Parks cannot "corns through with ths dope" there will be another awful kink put la the , standing of the Seals. " , ; . . ''.' " .. 1 ' .'. e . e . :. ' . .
