The first meet on the local calendar is the annual Indoor gathering at the Columbia uni versity coliseum, on Saturday, April 10.

Uni versity of Oregon, Oregon Agricultural college, Multnomah club and the vari ous high schools in anJ near Portland, v The results of the FaiHlc Coast In terscholastic championships, which will te staged In San Francisco April 9 and 10, will be awaited with interest by the local track; and field followers. On account of the meet being held so early In the season, there is little likelihood of any local athletes entering. The Ifi cal coaches barely get their proteges In action by the 1st of April. During the latter part of April a number of dual meets between the northwestern colleges will be staged. Practically all of the northwest col leges will enter teams in the Pacific coast championship events to bo staged In San Francisco, May 7 and 8. May 28 and 29 th9 teams will be seen In action at Cor".Jlis, Or., when the an nual northwe! intercollegiate cham pionship will b decided. Although no definite dates have been announced for the state-arid local inter Bcholastic meets, It is expected that the University of Oregon will hold its meet May 15. The Portland Interscholastic league meeting will be held either May 22 or 29. Dr. Stewart, of the Oregon Agricultural college, has not decided whether he will stage a meet for the scholastic students this season. On Big Meet Assured. The annual Pacific Northwest asso ciation meet protpises to be the big gest held in the northwest sines 1909, when the Amateur Athletic Union meet wag staged, in Seattle, during tha A-Y-P. fair. This meet will probably be held June 10, the second day of the 1915 Rose Festival. Athletes from all clubs of the P. N. A. will be entered In this meet, and the winners In the vari ous events will represent the P. N. A. In the far western championships, to be held In San Francisco, July 30 and 31. T. Morris Dunne, secretary of the P N. A., received word from J. J. Mc Govern. director of athletics of the ex position, to the effect that the Western association, which has Us headquarters In. Kansas City, is anxious to enter the far western competition.

Washington State has already defeat ed Oregon this season and should re peat. A student in talking to Bezdek yesterday expressed the opinion that Oregon migfTt beat the Washington Aggies, and Bezdek replied: "Yes, and they might beat us." The dope points Washington's way. The Illinois club has been playing all comers on Its trip across the conti nent and has been tucking away the majority of its games. However, it has been defeated, the Y. M. C. A. team of Oakland, Cal., turning the trick last wek. A great deal of in terest has been attracted by the game because of the opportunity to watch the different styles of th west and middle west. the fair, provided they can enter the meet. Following the far western meet, the senior Amateur Athletic Union cham pionships will be decided. Athletes from all parts of the United States, in cluding a great number of men who have won honors for the United States in the various Olympic games, will con test for the titles. Mor Interest than ever Is being dis played in the various meets scheduler" to be held this season, and it Is ex pected that the crowds will also be larger at the various local high school and college meets. James Bach, athletic director of Co lumbia university, may decide- to hold a modified marathon on April' 10, the date of the indoor meet. At present the roads are In such a bad condition that It is Impossible to say whether ft would b possible to run such an event. At the meeting of the chairmen of the records comm'ittees of the coast branches of the , Amateur Athletic Union last summer the records made in the Columbia meets were adopted as the Pacific coast Indoor dirt track rec ords. The marks set up in the 50 yard dash, B0 yard high hurdles, 220 yard dash, 440 yard run, 1 mile run, pole vault, broad Jump, half mile and mile relays are the best made in this event on any indoor track on the coast. The record in the 880 yard event Is two fifths of a second behind the best coast mark. NEW Northwest Corner Third and Morrison THE ; OREGON SUNDAY. JOURNAL.

EMU REVOLVER SHOT OF PORTLAND'S SQUAD Finishes Up Season of 1914 15 With Splendid Average of 225 5-7 in 21 Matches. George W. Wilson was high man In the Portland Revolver club ranks dur ing the 1914-1915 season of the United States Indoor Revolver tournament. With an average of 225 5-7. R. H. Craddock was second high shooter with the mark of 219 8-19. The Portrand club will finish the tournament with 17 victories and 4 defeats, according to unofficial fig ures received from Sec'y. J. B. Crabtree. The success of the team in this sea son's league was very gratifying to the club members considering the fact that the club was handicapped during the early part of the season on ac count of having no range. A couple of Portland's best shots were unable: to shoot this year, but it Is expected that they will turn out next season. The Portland team won the championship during the 1812-1913 season. The high team score during the pres ent season was 1124, which was made in the match against the Spokane, Wash., team. The individual high score was 238, made by George Wil son. Captain Moore made the second high score of 235. The averages of the shooters are: George W. Wilson 225 6-7 R. H. Craddock ...222 5-18 Captain T. J. Moore 219 9-19 ML Abraham 214 8- 9 I K.

Hood 193 3-14 MANHATTAN SHIRTS GEORG LSON HIGH Portland's financial receipts will be boosted some $5000 this year by the action of Judge W. W. McCredie In purchasing all of his rail road tickets in Portland instead of In the California towns, as has been the custom. It will cost that amount in tickets alone to transport the team around the newly formed circuit. In the old circuit the cost of transportation was about $3000. Heretofore Manager Walter McCredie has purchased the tickets wherever he happened to be and the credit has all gone to the outside offices. In the future Judge McCredie will purchase the tickets from either the Southern Pacific or the O-W. R. & N. as the case may be, and have them telegraphed to Manager Mac. Th O-W. R. & N. cuts Into the Coast league business for -the first time. Coast teams will make 15 round trips to Salt Lake and the Mormons will make fire trips to the coast. Each trip will contain 20 men on an average. The distance going and coming is about 1700 miles and the aggregate num ber of players 400. It will be seen, therefore, that the acquisition of the Utah metropolis means quite a thing to the railroads. 'VV V V V if if V if V V if V Six Portland baseball players and the war correspondents will leave tonight at 8:15 o'clock for the Beaver training camp at Fresno, Cal., where they will put in the next month at hard labor. The players are Gus Fisher, Walter Doane, Ty Lober, Rube Evans, Pat Callahan and George Naughton. They will stop in San Francisco Tuesday to give the fair the double 0 and leave that night for the training camp. From the looks of things the players will all be on hand by March 3. R. A. Cronin, sporting editor of The Journal, will cover the series for The Journal readers. Judge McCredie yesterday received the contract of George Stump. (He has learned to spell it that way himself, although in Italy it is Stumpf). The Beaver magnate also received the papers from Atlanta transferring Roy Moran to Atlanta and George Kircher to Portland. Judge McCredie has heen making Inquiries about Al Bartholemy, the young Piedmont catcher, since Dan Murray will be out of the game. The judge will recommend Bartholemy to Nephew Walter for a trial and he may be asked to Join the Beavers in the south. How ever, if McCredie secured Johnny Bassler from Cleveland, there will be no chance for the hard hitting Portland boy this year. :J Two California college teams are disputing over the March 6 and 7 dates with the Beavers at Fresno. Both St. Mary's and Santa Clara claim to have the date and have written Judge McCredie. who lias told them to telephone Walter Mao at Fresno. A compromise may be reached by giving the disappointed team the dates of March 19 and 20. BROKEN , BOARD PUTS AN END TO SHEFS CAREER Best Known of AH Athletes Will Have to Retire From Athletics. A broken board in the Indoor running track of the Madison Square Garden put an end to the wonderful career of Mel Sheppard. Thua'a mechanical de fect accomplished what Father Time was unable to do In 13 years. Sheppard was the best known of all track athletes, and spectacular always even to the crushing fall that marked his passing from the gam. His lonar career Is one sparkllngr scin tillation. It requires a safe deposit vault to store his Immense number of medals, trophies, etc; .His name and victories will always live. For three years, 1910, 1911 and 1912. he was practically unbeatable. Dur ing that time he created no less than twelve world's records. He held championships in several countries, and won the world's admiration and applause at London during the Olympic games of 1910 by victories over the greatest runners of the time.; He cored 11 points alone, and won the two "main events," the 800 and 1600-meter races, establish ing Olympian ' records at the sanaa time. Sheppard retires with three world's records under his same. The marks fof" 600 yards (1m. 10 4-5 a.), 500 yards NO, SUNDAY . MORNING.

MEN Professor Dyment's Pupils Suggest March 6 and 13 For Games. University of Oregon, Eugene, Or., Feb. 27. A ray of hope came for soc cer football at Oregon this week When the student body authorized the execu tive committee of the associated stu dents to accept Multnomah Athletic club's proposition of Portland and Eu gene soccer games this season for the state championship. The soccer squad under Coach Colin V. Dyment, a f or mer Multnomah club man, and Cap tain Heal Ford has been practicing for five months and It seemed that all the possible games, one by one, had been killed. The offer made by the Multnomah club through its soccer chairman, A. E. Mackenzie, was for home and home games with guarantees of 685, each team to keep the receipts from its own gates. A letter has been written Chairman Mackenzie suggesting March 8 as the Portland date and March IS as the Eugene date. "In case of a game Multnomah elub should beat the Oregon team five to nothing," said Coach Dyment today. "With men like young Leonard ' and Mackie, Multnomah Is strong. "However, the Oregon boys havs practised hard and faithfully and should give a good account of them selves." Soccer was introduced here last year by Professor Dyment and a team formed which played Columbia uni versity of Portland two tie games. Co lumbia had already won the Portland Inter-scholastic championship. McCredie May Land Johnny Bassler to Replace D, Murray Los Angeles, Cal., Feb.. if.

Assuming once more that Johnson and Wlllard ate per mitted to so through with their 48 rouna manoeuvres at Juares or Havana, or somewhere. It behooves us to place before the boxing Jury convincing evi dence to show that Jeas Wlllard has an even chanc. of defeating Jack Johnson, thereby regaining for the Caucasian rac. the world's heavyweight crown, which has been tilted from Johnson's Alabaster brow since that memorial aay or December 26, 1908, when John son beat little Tommy Burns into sub mission in 14 rounds in faraway Aus tralia. Casual followers of matters pugilis tic have scoffed at Big Jess' ability to cope with the one. mighty Senegam bian. W. herewith produce som. faoti that seem to giv. th. giant Kansas cowpuncher at least an even chance wiin trie maauro champion. Th. more salient facts are these: Wlllard is 10 years younger, and is generally accreditedwlth being able to deliver a more powerful blow than Johnson. Also Jess weighs 20 pounds more than the black; but whether this will be an advantag. or a detriment. remains to do seen. - He's Half Toot Taller. Then, again. Wlllard tower, umi. thing like 6 Inches above Johnson, who is no lllliputlan, and the while boy tuurmoui reach of 83 V4 inches, as compared to Johnson's J76 Inches. Delving stlli farther Into tho dope,' Wlllard has never been knocked out, or even unocKM down during a ring en counter, while Johnson has sensed a knockout. Any one that ' has ever caved in under a sleep-inducing wallop will tell that they never overcome the apprehension of suffering another knockout. .' While the class of opposition Wlllard has confronted during his few Years, in the ring has been only mediocre, it is, nevertheless, a noteworthy fact that h. has knocked out 27 of his last 28 op ponents. ' ;.i It is aiso'a fact that Wlllard does not know his own strength. He h killed one man with a punch, "Bull" Young being the unfortunate victim of 'Wll lard' death dealing right uppercnt, th uiuw wim wnicn jess hopes to beat Johnson. Wlllard has every natural advantage, but Is sadly lacking In three essentials experience, generalship and ' skill. And these are th factors ' that, may cost him the fight. WUlard's Battle XUau ' Th. attenuated Wlllard,. before Jeav. Ing for the battleground,, mapped out his plan of campaign to th writer. Said Jess: , "Vou can rest assured that I sm not goings to fight Johnson th way the other white lads have been accustomed to tackling him, Jim Flynn, Frank Moran, and even thjj. late Stanley Ketchel made th. mistake of rushing the colored fellow early in th fight: Jack Is a master boxer, and permitted h 1 1 1 m in mrmam IK.n...!.. ..... . J " t iHviM.ciTEB vuk, una then, they would be easy picking for him. I Intend to make Johnson com "to m at the beginning of the battle. I will wear him down with solid left Jabs that will put him into a position for me to score easily with my right up percut. I do not think h will last mor than 26 rounds. ' .. , "I hav fought Johnson before, but only in exhibition bouts. He tried hard to knock me out, but failed utterly. Jf h couldn't put m away, or oven knock me down, when 1 was only a mr nor ice, it Js quite Unlikely that he is ca- paoi ot turning tn trick now, so many years after. . .

But 1 cannot afford to Jet my hitting powers interfere with my chance of, winning th. title. I will hit Johnson as hard as i pussiisiy- can, rcgarutes oi in con. sequences." . , Wlllard say he will depend chiefly" on his terrific right uppercut to bring Johnson down.

Jes sel dom used the blow In training- bouts. mr iw oi uuruui aim sparring; part ners. . The backers of Wlllard point to the fact that Johnson has tivw met a man or m six. ox jess; ana tney y that th. sight of such a fellow in front of him wilt Intimidate Johnson. WUlard's gameness ha never been thoroughly tested, but it will surely be given a ver inai next eaturaay arternoon. In short, Wlllard' chanc for victory lies in his stamina and his man-killing punch.' Johnson will b there with all his vaunted cleverness and his smash ing right uppercut, and it will be a battls worth seeing, if all 1 on th "Up-and-Up." , Vr ,v . . - . .'
