C, Oregon and Bremerton, and a couple of. other minor teams. Idaho beat W. 8. C. and Whitman and lost to O. A. C. and Oregon. Reports from all sides state that the Idaho eleven is going to give the "Wlnged-M" players a big surprise. The team, however, will be weakened by the loss of Johnson, Its All-Northwest end, who was called east on account his mother's illness. Multnomah Alio Loses. Multnomah is also without the serv ices of Peter Rodes, the crack quarter back, wno left for the east after the Thanksgiving day battle against Oregon. Clyde Rupert, who played on the line in all games, except the Christmas day con test with the St. James team, will play the pivot position in Thursday's battle.

DREW IS FASTEST THING y ARTHUR DUFFY-HAS SEEN Arthur Duf fey, the ex-amateur sprint champion, says: "They have Howard Drew, the champion sprinter, going to enter the University of California how. Before the opening of the college ath letic season they had Drew going to Dartmouth.'; Later Drew was' going to Brown, but In spite of all the reports, ; Drew remained at Sprthgfleld, hustling baggage-about In the Springfield rati" road station, and knew but little about going to .the -different college.'

Y HAVE SINCE PORTLAND WAS TAKEN BY COAST IN TO Stars Who Graduated From Beaver Team Have Scintil lated in Major Leagues, Pacific Coast league baseball In Port land Is a decade old. - In that time, local fans have "had the opportunity of seeing many players who afterwards became stars in the American and National leagues. Read over the names in the- list be low, not a complete list, but one that contains the names of nearly every player that helped Portland attain Its present position in Coast league circles. Some are there that scarcely waken a memory, while othevs thrill .wltn a reality as potent as ever. , Looking back It does not seem long, when David Dugdale, the portly Seattln magnate, owned the Portland team and had such hard luck In turning out winning combination, although on the teams of the '03 and '04 eeMons there were several players who afterwards became stars In" the Pacific Coast league. And then, it only seems as it it were yesterday that the Portland team was composed of such stars as Larry McLean, Benny Henderson, Mike Mitchell, Pat McHale, Pat Donahue, Jakey Atz and Bill Sweeney. There Was Slogging Xiarry, Go back eeven years In your memory, fans. Close your eyes and day dream for a minute. Don't you see the tail Larry McLean bending over the plate readv to receive the wonderful slant.? delivered by the once ' Invincible, Benny Henderson. In the shortfleld, there Is William Pweeney, now a major leagu star ready to scoop up or pull out of the air any batted ball that comes his way. In the outfield stand three play ers. Along the rlghfleld foul line, pac ing back and forth, . is Walter Mc Credie, rlht hand pounding Into h.s thin glove growling like a sea captain but always with his eyes on the ball In the centerfleld is Pat McHale an'l in left Is Mike Mitchell, who win Ilka ly slip Into the American league after a sojourn of seven yearp In the National league. And now turn and look In the direction of the keystone. There Is Larry Schlafley, one of the best second basemen .who ever played on the coast. and on the bench Is Fat Donahue and Johnny Kane. Other- stars of thajr championamp team, are beginning to fade and are slipping from the pinnacle of their fame to leagues of lower class where knowledge makes up for' slack ened speed. Drop all recollections of the '06 sea son and put into your mind the team of '10. Recall how that wonderful quar. tet of twlrlers. Vean Gregg, Bill Steen, Tom Seaton and Eugene Krapp, used to split the heart of the plate wit., their spltballs, outdrops and lnchoots, Have Had Hitting Wonders. Some wonderful hitters have worn Portland uniforms. In the real ,eany days tnero was ueacon van curen ana Phil Nadeau. Both hit above the .345 mark. Following these player was ''Home Run" Marshall and Ralph Fraty and then came the sluggera of the 1906 team, McLean, Mitchell. And Mo Credie, the latter with hislruaty pinch hitting stick. In 1909, there was Ote Johnson, Tom Raftery and Jack Qraney Let the seasons roll by slowly In pan rama and stop at the beginning of 1913; MoCredle gathered, - ' dandy , bunch t Dan . tossers, out iney man i get off right until Elmer Lober and Billy Jspeas, two young. men, joined tho team " D,n, lo ?ul f.5 D,nI nep , I ft ft ... 1 M '.....k ft ft .

There are other twlrlers of eqnal abil ity, who played but a short while with the Portland team, while others reached tho top of their career here and others still ended their playing duys with Port land. Shortstop Always Pilled. Some of the be t pl.iyers seen on the coast have played the shortstop posi tion for the Heavers. In the "05 season there was Jakey Ati, wtio was followed by Bill Sweeney. Ole Olson. Rodger Pecklnpaugh, Dave Bancroft and Bobby Davis form a quartet of short patchers, who will be remcmberpd for years lo come. Bancroft, fast ae lightning n fielding, but weak in hitting, slipped down a cog last year, but there will be a time when lie will be a top-notoher. Portland fanB were given or.ly a few games to see Bobby Davis, but In 1914 this wonderful little tosser may be able to show ills home people what he showed the Culiforninns during the waning weeks of the 113 season. At second and third the Beavers have been stronger one season than another. There has always been more or less of a weakness at first base. In the pasture there have been many fast fielders and heavy sluggers. Be hind the bat, McCredle hits invariably had great luck in securing good r-s-celvers. Ponder Over the Past. As the new players rise the old must fall, so remember the oy that used to draw cheers from the bleachers and applause from the grandHtunda. Here they are;.

Los Angeles, Cal., Dec. 27. Bud An derson and Leach Cross were both very busy In their training camps this after noon and tomorrow afternoon thy will do the biggest day's work of the train ing period. That work-out will be the last day of the strenuous stuff for them, though both boys will continue to work until Wednesday on gradually decreasing schedule. Weight and condition are satisfactory to both boys at the present moment and the remaining days of work will be ample to send them into the ring prepared for their best effort. Anderson will work first at the Ver non arena, boxing 10 rounds with John ny Arrozay, Phil Donovan, Solly Bums and Brother Fred. Cross will wait until Anderson fin-, ishes his work before he starts in at Jack Doyle's camp. Leach intends to give 10 hard rounds work. Managers Wallach and Donald promise to turn their proteges lose Sunday afternoon. Both Cross and Anderson are very much satisfied with their weight as It stands right now. Neither is worrying as to not being able to make the weight without weakening, especially Cross, who is a natural 135 pounder and can train down to 133 a.nd do It without hurting himself. Anderson made 135Vi pounds for Frank Bnrrieau and never tried to make the weight. He made It naturally, and when one knows this they can -easily understand why he Is not having any trouble to make 135 pounds two houra before ring time when he made the weight for Barrieau four hours before. Betting on the Anderson-Cross bout showed up lively today. Several good sized bets were placed this afternoon at six to five with the Medford boy t favorite".'""' "" n- Anderson expressed great confidence In his cpmlng return match with Cross, He seems sure (hat he will put Cross out before the bout has gone the limit. In discussing his chances for victory Bud said: "It's simply a case of got to win.' I can't afford to let Cross whip me in this matc'.i. I am sure that I will knock him out before the bout has gone very far. I am In perfect condition right now, and could do battle tomorrow If necessary," - Earl Mack, son of Connie Mack of the Athletics, will coach the baseball squad at the University of North Carolina be fore he begins his duties as manager of the Raleigh team." - f to:
