14 ZiVxE OREGON "DAILY 'JOURNAL,- PORTLAN D. THURSDAY EVENING. JANUARY S9. 1914. PORTLAND MANAGER WOULDN'T MIND IF COAST LEAGUE WENT OUTLAW SEATON FIFTH BEST SPEEDER BASEBALL - COULD BE PROVIDED FOR FANS BY SWAP Money .Now, Paid to Majors for Talent Could Be Ap plied to Salaries. THE MAN WHO WANTS BOBBY DAVIS Tf there lit to be an exodua from or ganized buMebail as the result of the movement Inaugurated by the Federal league. Manager Walter McCredie of tho Portland club would like to see tfhe Coaat league one of the first to take to the highway. McCredie waa once an outlaw himself. Jumping from the Minneapolis club to the Oakland rene ' gadea In 1902, by way of explanation. "If the International league and American association are going to pull away from protection In their efforta to get major league standing, I would 1 like to nee the Coast league follow tilt," said Mac. "Wo are entitled to everything that Is to be gotten. "There la no question but that out law ball on the Pacific coast would be faster than the organized game, for It would be possible for us to get major league players without cost. Nowa day, If you want a ball player who haa been a year or so In the majors you have to pay around $2500 for him. If we didn't have to pay this we could add it cnto the players' salaries and thereby Induce a better rate of ball players to sign up with us. "Don't understand that I am urging any organized league to turn outlaw, for I am not. But I contend that If the Class AA leagues In the east turn . down organized baseball there will no longer -be any Incentive for us to re main within the fold, and we could do better by ourselves if we went Into the free lance game in the matter of .. getting ball players. "In the old days, when the Coast l league was an outlaw organization. It ' was right next to the major leagues in points of class, for we had a lot of big league tossers among us. "There are no pitchers in the Const teague now who class up with Jay Hughes, Doc Newton, Joe Corbett and that bunch. They were stars of tho major leagues. And I could go on naming a lot of ball players who were far above the average of the players now. "As a matter of fact organized base ball doesn't give the Class AA clubs much protection. Of course they get an earlier chance to draft than the two Class A leagues, but can't touch one of the A clubs if it has previously been, touched by the majors. The money paid for Class AA drafts is un important because you have to pungle up the same amount, $2500, if you want your man hack. "It strikes me that if we were with out protection we could provide the fans with faster baseball than we can now." I If - f If - ' ' , -M'-V''. t i ft . s ' . 1 - 4. 1 t .

Dick Donald, manager for Bud Anderson, former lightweight championship contender. admitted here today that he and An derson are at outa and that their part nership probably will be dissolved. Donald recently matched Anderson to fight Red Watson In San Francisco, but Bud failed to reply to his notifica tion of the bout. 'RED'' DOOIN DENIES THAT HE WAS AFTER FED. LEAGUE BERTH Letter Printed in Pittsburg a Rank Forgery, Says the Scrappy Leader of Phillies. Frank Chance, manager of the New York Americans, who has tried various ways to get Walter McCredie to let loose of the young Beaver shortstop. CANIPI AND WILLIAM It's funny what this cold water stuff will do to a fefiow. When Walter . McCredie was informed over the tele phone yesterday morning that the Cleveland pitching staff had been raided by the Federals he was all commis- eratlon for President Somers, and right then and there was ready 'and willing to turn Hiram West right over to 'the Naps. Then he took his dally diva into the atuff the chemists know aijd designate as H20. He shivered a bit and shook off all sympathy for Bomers In the latters distress. "What would Portland fans think," mused McCredie, as a soft boiled egg waa balanced on a fork and crowded Into the facial aperture. No, I shawn't give him Hiram. I shall give him Gene Krapp, if he wishes. Besides being a spitball pitcher, which Somers needs, he will be able ta entertain the ladles with his Delsartlan poses. 'Tis a bright Idea on my part, and, too, it will tickle the fans to know that Hiram will be among them next sea son. Yea. a bright idea." PUT IN FINAL WALLOPS Baltimore Kid Is Ten to Seven Favorite Over Coast Bantam. NIX! NEIN! NEVO! T. BURNS FRAMER Bud Anderson, over the telephone from his home at Vancouver, Wash., thta morning stated that the story of his dissolving partnership with Dick Donald was news to him. Bud says he received a telegram from Donald Tuesday, but It was not Immediately delivered to him, and that he waa go ing to answer It this morning. The telegram told Anderson that Donald had matched him to meet Bed Watson at San Francisco in a 20 round bout on the night of February 20. and that Donald would leave Los Angeles for San Franclsoo about the first of February. "I don't know what Dick and I are at outs about," said Bud. "I guess somebody is trying to stir up trouble between ua. It ia not the first time that there have been meddlers In the affairs of boxers and their managers. They charged Dick with sending me into the ring against Croaa in a weak ened condition because he kept me wrapped In steaming blankets. That's all bunk. Of course the weight weak ened me, feut there waa no steaming. t guess the criticism Is getting under his collar, but he ought not to let that hnrt him, for It certainly doesn't af fect me In any way. "Cross. I guess. Is my Jinx. Just as Young Corbett was the Jinx of Terry McGovern. Terry could stop fellows that knocked Corbett out, while knocked out a fellow that beat Cross. That's the way It goes. "I guess that I shall leave for San Francisco about the first week In Feb ruary to get Into shape for Watson. When I knocked out Louis Rees they said around the bay that I was as Flow as a truck horse. This time 111 show them that I can speed up a trifle myself, and I don't think Watson will last half the distance. "Just chloroform that little tale about me being at outs with Dick. If there Is any feeling It Is all on his side, for I certainly do not hold grievance against him." Philadelphia. la-, Jan. . Pub lished reports that he had been negoti ating with Federal league officials for the managership of the Pittsburg out- aw club were denied in a telegram received here today by friends of Red" Dooin, manager of the Phila delphia club of the new league. Yea terday a letter waa printed In Pitta- burg, purporting to have been signed by Dooin, which said that be stood ready to sign with the Pittsburg club If given a three year contract calling for $7000 annually. Dooin denounced the letter as "a rank forgery." "Even before the date of the forged letter." said Dooin In a telegram. "1 had signed a two year contract to manage the Philadelphia club at 110.000 annually. The printed lettet was dated November 12. 1113. At that time I waa attending a banquet of the National Baseball association In Co lumbus. "The letter la a rank forgery. It It easy to see that the Federal league Is on Its last lega when it resorta to auch crookedness. Canadian Haberdasher De nies Battling Brant For merly Worked in Store. Los Angeles, Jan. 29. Eddie Campl of San Francisco and Kid Williams of Baltimore put in the last hard licks today In preparation for their sched uled' 20 round bout at Vernon Satur day afternoon, which has been billed as a contest for the world's bantam weight title. Both boys went several miles on the road, pulled the weights in the gymna sium and topped off with a dozen rounds of boxing. Each claims that he is within easy reach of the weight, 116 pounds ringside. There has been little betting here but Williams, who has one decision victory over Campl to his credit, has been made a 10 to 7 favorite 85 fe I. 2iti' i3t!"T Suit of Overcoat made to order WITH THE BOXERS r. 13 Jim Flynn, the Pueblo heavyweight.

Eddie Murphy is to get a chance to box Freddie Welch, if a St. Louis pro moter can bring the pair together. The hnxl n tr en m a will stnn In Youngstown, Ohio, February 2, with George Chip and Leo Houck furnishing the star bout or the evening. The National Sporting club of Lon don announces that It will not match Jack Johnson to box, because the champion wants too much money for his services. The famous "Chocolate Eclair" told ithe club that he must have 130,000 for hia end, no matter whom he boxes. - P. A. S. A. POLO TEAM CHALLENGES M. A. A. C San Francisco, Jan. 29. Flat denial of reports from Los Angeles that his recent bout in Taft with Battling Brant was "framed" was made here today by lommy Burns, rormer heavyweight champioh of the world. According to "is Angeies reports, Brant formerly was a clerk in Burns' haberdashery In Calgary. I had never seen Brant until my trip to the oil fields," said Burns to day. "Of course I realized that he waa not a hard fellow to beat, as the match was only a trial test for myself. I had absolutely no understanding with the man. I also want to say that nev er in all my ring history have I ad ministered as much of a beating to a man as I gave Brant. Surely, if there had been anything In the story that came from Los Angeles, I would have let him off easier than I did." Burns knocked out Brant in the fourth round.
