"Spread Play,"
The twenty-third gridiron season of
the Multnomah Amateur Athletio club
will be closed Thursday afternoon, when
the "Wlnged-M" players battle against
, the fast University of Idaho team. Tho
contest, the last of the present season,
will start promptly at 2:30 o'clock.
Both teams have made good records
during the season. Multnomah has not
lost a single game, beating the W, S. C.
O. A. 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.
The Multnomuh team will line up
practically the same as it did against
Oregon in the second half. Strleblg and
McRae will be the ends, Bailey and Phil
brook the tackles, and Rodgers and
Wells, guards. Cherry, of course, wil!
play the center position. The backfield
will be Rupert, quarterback; Keck and
Francis, halfbacks, and Convill, fullback.
The club players will practice this
morning at" 10 o'clock, and on Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday nights. The
teamdi(wed' to advantage lost. Thurs
day" with "Bed" Rupert playing quarts
back. Rupert had but a week's practlc.
In case Rupert cannot play. Manager
Btott has Clayton Patterson, Eddie Hum
phreys and McVeasU to.iall back on.
Coach Qrlffith had one of the fastest
backfield combinations on the confer
ence last season, and has an excellent
punter in Klnnlson. Lockhart, Brown,
Purdy and Knudson form the backfield
quartet, and th.elr average weight Is 167
pounds, about 20 pounds less than Mult
nomah's average. Lockhart, who is cap
"tatir of the Idaho-track-tftmnextJea-son.
Is a dangerous man when carrying
the'ball, especially on end runs.
On Us lBt appearance here, the Idaho
team gave the Portland fans a view of
the famous "Idaho epreaa. unimn us
several new formations, which will bo
seen for the first time on the local fieU
Thursday.
Manager Plowden Stott has mailed two
tickets to every member of the club,
which entitle him to admission if he
pays 76 cents for each seat. Twenty
five cents additional with each ticket
will admit the bearer to the grandstand.
ThU is a new system, and the club offi
cials believe that it will be successful.
Tickets for the game will be placed on

Arthur Duf fey, the ex-amateur sprint

Before the opening of the college ath

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.' If Drew

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

past Portland teams: Virgil Garvin,

the entire corps of last seasons siaia.
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;.

BUD MAKES POUNDAGE' '
WITHOUT ANY TROUBLE-
Sunday Will Be Big Day With
Both Boxing Ten
Rounds.,
(Special ti The Journal.. y.
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
