When the Cubs were In their prime these men used to operate a system somewhat similar to the cash carriers in a department . store, nbne the less accurate because of the absence of vires. Tinker started the machinery by scooping, up a grass singer and tossing it to Evers, who did not hold the ball until his palms were sweaty, but pushed it along to Chance. And the next morning the loyal fan risked his eyesight by reading the' fine print under the box score, where "the following appeared: Double play, Tinker to Evans to Chance. But the line probably will never appear again, for with Tinker in Cincinnati, Evers in Chicago, and Chance In New York, there would be too much strain on the throwing winss to make the play worth while.

He jnade th forecast after seeing Anderson, . - then a raw amateur, Knock out . three men In one night, turning the three-ply trick In a total of five rounds., Here is tho story: .

When , he was shy of talent he would apply to the barracks at Vancou ver, Wash- twenty minutes' ride from Portland, whero a number of United States troops are. quartered. The sol diers were ready to fight at any old time, and there were a number of really good boxers among them. He had been running his club a short time when reports of the deadly lilttlng of an "unknown" by the name of An dorson reached him. The Anderson sen timent, In fact, became so strong, that he decided to give the kid a tryout Bud, then- a mere boy, was finally put on with a George Reese, of the Vancouver barracks. From this point we will let Huddy tell the Story him. self. ' , "Well.

"Frank Bernard, champion of the Philippine Islands, and Charley Irwin were matched for. the main event. Ir win was taken sick -and failed to show. Anderson volunteered to meet Bernard, and entered the ring for the third time that night. It went three rounds. In the third, Anderson drew Bernard's head forward with a backxhanded left, and then knocked him out with a right hook to the hack of the neck, "i lost sight of Anderson after leav ing Portland, but they say ho has been cleaning thpni all up. I am glad to learn that he has turned professional. "Anderson Is a terrific puncher. His style may best be described as clcveny ojvkward, i.crcdic.ted five years ago. that he would be the next lightweight cham pion, and I have had no resson to ex perience a change of heart."
