Every one to his own taste this should hold good on the sport menu the same as on any other bill o' fare. ' And H does In Italy. That's .

There Is znot a true born Italian in that whole land of sunburn and bootblacks but what possesses in his Innermost soul a liking for this grand pastime. It is as much a part of Italy as Is the vino they drink and the hand organ they play. It is at once a pleasure, an . exerciser, and th ruination of perfectly good vests. It is the sport of kings in ."Sunny It," and every wop Is 1 a L king when playing at : the fascinating pleasure provider. Oh, baseball Is not the only? pimple on the pickle! " I should say not.

A "SPAGHETTI RACING" IN ITALY Ever try It? Did you ever see it? Maybe not the first, but surely the lat ter. Most any time at all right In our own America, too one can see them. You have certainly seen the practicing, for whenever they are not playing they are practicing except when they stop to eat. .v'.;.;'.''.. '." .' , just Jook yourself through the win dows of the "Flora" d . Italias" -the "Little Italys," and other eating places of like character and watch those black curly heads" with flashing earrings a-bobing among the goblets of "vlna roBsa" as they make those steaming bowls grow empty. Then maybe you will realize what we are talking about Then, too, you will realize what a hold this game has on the nation. It reminds one of that statue of the Laocoon, In Rome spaghetti has the same hold on Italy as has the snake In that famous marble group.- t .... . .. Spaghetti racing is exactly like horse racing except that In S. R. there are no horses, no jockeys, no race track, and entries stay on one spot and do not move. The first, thing necessary in spaghetti racing la a uniform. - Of course this Is not Insistent In Amerlca but in Italy it is different there every : NOT ANSWER COFFROTH Promoter Is Peeved at Cham pion for Attitude Over 4th ; - of July Bout.

That Willie Ritchie, lightweight champion of tho world, does not Intend to enter the ring In a regular contest July 4, is in dicated by advices from Montana, where he is making one night stands In his theatrical Junket A telegram addressed to Ritchie by Promoter James Coffroth of this city remains unanswered, and messages to the champion from Other quarters have met with a like silence. . Coffroth admittedly is out of patience with Ritchie for his 'stalling tactics. VILLIE RITCHIE DOES MANAGER FRANK CHANCE AND MRS.

After the uniforms are properly ad justed, all the cpntestants seat them selves on a long wooden bench beside long wooden tabfe,' which has a spaca divided off for each player by two tall black bottles. These bottles are filled so as to be more substantial They are filled with vino, as water is unknown in Italy. '- It the race is to be for a mile, why bowls containing strings of spaghetti a mile long are placed before the players. If the race is Jo be for five miles, say, why five mile strings of spaghetti are provided, and ao on. You get the ideal -- Then a eork ' Is poppedand slpeel they're off! The idea is to see which man can eat the mile of spaghetti In the shortest time. Talk about excitement and noise and seventh inning rallies! You should just hear those boys race. They make our New Years seem like Easter. . Naturally a game which Is so exciting ami if he can get no reply from tho champion in a very few days, he will go ahead with his arrangements for a fight between the winner of the Jess Willard Gunboat Smith go and Luther McCarty at his Eighth street arena on Independ ence day. . .. u., -!-,.-' , ' MULTNOMAH ATHLETES TO SPOKANE TONIGHT Multnomah's representatives who ap pear in the Jnterclub boxing and wrest ling, meet with the Spokane athletes will leave Portland tonight accompanied by Manager Harmar and instructors Tracey. and O'COnnclL McCarthy and Clibborn, the ' winged ,"M" representa tives in the wrestling bouts, worked hard yesterday afternoon getting their wind Into condition.

The final selection will bo made this afternoon. - A- Km i mmmmmmmm A i - V 2 M must be dangerous. And It Is. Some times in the heat of a race a contestant becomes so excited as to break out of bounds that is knocks over the bottle of vino, thus Interfering with the other players, and they become entangled and trip one another until they resemble a flock of kittens In a yarn factory. This is very dangerous, as sometimes players are strangled or choked to death. But this we happily ; say Is rare and serves only to add spice to the game. ;" Five miles is the popular distance for racing, although they do the 10 furlongs and the mile quite often. The record for five miles Is held at present by Sig nor Tony Emanuelle Bisordibaldl of Naples. He covered the distance in 19 minutes and 17 seconds. That's eating up time, eh? -Twenty-five or SO minutes is the usual time for amateurs, but most any- Italian can do the loo yard dash in 10 flat A man with one tooth and indigestion can do that in Brlndlsi. Many Americans have taken a flier at this as it is so natural for an Ameri can to take chances. But it's retret able to say that they failed miserably cnoKingiy.
