Reardon, a Southpaw whom Lynch has been trying to sign for two seasons, and Pitcher Matley of Lodl, Cal. Reardon Is 19 years of age and stands feet 2t inches. He is a second Jesse Baker, according to the Tiger town manager. Lynch secured the youngster's signature and also that of his father on account of the boy's youth. Charley Com iskey Is very sweet on Reardon and wired Lynch to grab tho youngster. Lynch has the promise of Comlskey that he will send him a first class catcher before the Northwestern league season opens. La Brand, who caught so splendidly for the Turks, near the close of the season, has been affected by the ruling of the National commission on outlaw players and It looks as if Shea and Whaling would have to do the back stopping for the Turks this coming season. Owen Hadley is the latest pitching recruit signed by, Dugdale. ATTELL PRETTY GLAD HE DIDN'T MEET PACK New York, Jan. 19. Abe Attell today Is one glad puncher because he did not fight Packy McFarland last month as arranged. Dilating on the McFar land knockou,t of Goodman, which "no witnessed, Attell said: "If I had gone through with the McFarland match I would have given him at east 12 pounds In weight. And from the way he slipped It over on Goodman 1 guess I'd have been a sucker. Packy Is bet ter than I thought." Wrestling Controversy Settled.

Every bout was won on a knockout, a solar plexus punch being his favorite blow. His longest bout was with Edward Anderson, which he won In th fifth round and his shortest with Battling Britt, who took the 10 count after one, minute and 10 seconds of fighting. Every one of his fights has been cleanly won, the victories all com ing through Morris' ability as an ln flghter, His record in full follows: Wants to Meet Portland Pro fessionals in Exhibition at Amateur Meet. When the next amateur fencing tour nament is held in Portland, which will be some time in March, Professor Charles Lampert, instructor, intends to call on some of the professional fenc ing instructors of the city to meet him. Whether Lampert Is able to outpoint the other fencers is -a matter that re mains to be decided, but it seems pretty certain that some of the instructors and others who used to be. in the chal lenge game before Lampert came to Portland have grown strangely silent. Lampert has issued challenge after challenge to the professionals, yet none of them has accepted. He is ready to meet them in friendly contest with the foils, duelling sword or' rapier. The March tournament will probably bring together the best buncb of ama teurs that has ever been gathered under one roof in Portland. The Portland Fencing club boasts of some very clever fencers, men and women, and would probably be able to outpoint any other club on the coast In a dual meet. The new quarters of the fencers In the Glendora hotel are admirably fitted up for the purpose and the fencers are in course of preparation for the big tournament in March. Coulon Stops Moran. Memphis, Jan. 19. Johnny Coulon of Chicago, who claims to be bantam cham pion, has another feather In his cap to day.

Ml QUINTETS IN LEAGUE The Spartans retain their lead In the Columbia Basketball league, having de feated the Y. M. C. A. Cubs and the Vancouver Soldiers in the. Association "gym" last night. In a double-header. They won the first game with the Cubs by a score of 34 to 14, and polished off the Barracks five, 49 to 12. Morton, the old Dallas star guard, played with the Spartans in the second game, and put up a nice game. Tiie lineups for the two games follow: Spartans Sheets. F.; Madarls.

Truly. It looks as if McCredie Is right when lie says the fans, will, be thrown into dizzy spell trying to watch these fel lows on the bases. Let McCredie have two more pitchers as good as Bill Steen and there are fans 4iere who will bet their heirlooms that Portland breezes In on the bit. Portland mixed thtng3 up a bit in their playing last season and-Invariably had the other fellows guessing. It Mc Credie could do that with a team as slow as the one last season, what might he not do with a lineup that is like greased lightning. Think of the "hit and run" and the "sacrlfics" stuff that they couldn't pull off. What Might Happen. Hem's n brief analysis of what might be expected. Let Cbadbourne lead off. Here's a fellow that Artie Krueger says will walk two out of four times up. He is a dangerous man' on -the bases and liable to start a steal any time. The lead-off man shoud be able to get on base any lime he comes up. He doesn't have to be a wonder with the stick, but at that .Chadbourne batted .252 in the American association last year. Let Chidbourne get on base and then have Rodgers follow him. Kodgers bat ted .283 last year and only stole 63 bases in 124 games, one pilfer in every two games. What might not this pair do with a sacrifice hit and run. Let both of them get pn base and you've got BS11, "Who ought to1" hit around .300 In the minors, the same as Krueger. Ball Is Just about as fast as the pair ahead of him. - Suppose they all get on base ano you have three on and Krueger as the cleanup man. The fans know what Krueger can do. All three of those fel lows will score on a double or a long single and a boot That's because they know how to run bases and have the speed In ther legs. Last year Krue ger"s long .hits oftentimes went for naught, for Olson, Speaa and Ort were about the only ones fleet enough to score" .from first. Krjrger is the best cleanup man In the coast-league. He outguesses , the pitchers. They can't tell what he is go ing to do and he has the strength in his shoulders to crack that ball any where In the lot. Wow in the Beoond String. Keep that bunch in your mind and glance over the second string. Here comes Pecklnpaugh, who bats .255 and who -is no slouch at the speed thing. Then put Buddy Ryan down with an average of .241 and liable to crack out an extra base hit any time. Follow him with Bill Rapps, who was slow late in the season lqst year, but who may surprise some of the fans next season on the path. Say fot fun, we put Bradley In be hind the iat. They tell me he is fast as Cliff Blankenship used to be and you remember how Cliff could get around those bases. Bradley clouts that plH for .2F2. Here is the second man to clean up If we get Peck, Ryan and Rapps on the bases. Then you wind up with your pitcher. Sounds pretty good on paper doesn't It? Walt till you see us. And I haven't mentioned Tommy Sheehan, who may hit In his old Pittsburg form or Irving Gough. who only batted 30l last year. Baltimore may form a handball league. ire Only 2 More Days Left This Sale Will Night Any Suit or Overcoat in the House Your Choice of Over 500 Patterns Made to (B (JJoIho St, K r ' W- L : nmvrtft fi iHMMWlirmmrffsmA- " mot ttlftt Hornet T.
