George Grayson's Bradfords, leaders
in the Intercity Baseball league cham
pionship race, will face their old Jinx,
Collie Druhot. this afternoon on the
Vaughn street grounds, when they line
up against the Baby Beavers. Every
time Druhot has been pitted against a
team managed by. Grayson he has won
his game. This year Grayson Is confi
dent there will be a different story to
tell, as he has gathered togetner one
of the best semi-pro teams in the state.
Last year the Pteduiont Maroons,
which were managed by Grayson, were
walking away with victory after vic
tory until they faced Druhot. The
former Beaver and St. Louis National
hurler captured the goats of the Ma
roon players and easily won his game.
It yas the only game the Maroons lost
during the first half of the season.
Jude Moreland will probibly be on
the mound for the Bradfords today
with Charles Bleeg behind the bat.
The game will start promptly at
2:30 o'clock.
Klrkpatricks at Salem.
The Kirkpatrlck team will clash with
the Salem Loju team at Salem. Tom
Baker will probably occupy the mound
for the Klrkpatricks. while Wayne
Barham will probably heave for the
Salemites.
Montavilla will meet Woodburn for
the S5ond time this season at Wood
burn. TheVnew Montavilla lineup looks
very strong and should put up a good
battle against Manager Huddleston's
team. Johnny Newman will strength
en the, "Wildcats behind the bat.
The St. Helens team will entertain
the Woodland aggregation on its home
Kiounds. Kotula, who has been signed
for the 1917 season by the Portland
Beavers, will likely pitch for Wood
land against Alec Donaldson.
"RA" Krietz, former Pacific Coast
and Northwestern league catcher, has
been signed by the Woodburn team.
Woodburn has reinstated Proctor
Wilson and turned the player over to
the Salem club.
Pitcher Helman of the Baby Beavers

regatta at the Oaks Decoration day.
There will be a race for runabouts
with a speed under 15 miles per hour,
a cruiser race, a race for runabouts
making over 15 miles per hour and a
free for all race. There will also be

ranged by Dr. Hill and Joe Carter, who
have charge of the entertainment. The
club will give a cruise to Butteville
some time In June.
Commadore Beebe has sold his fast
motorboat Tom Boy to parties down
i nclr Astoria. 1 ne commoaore s mgn
ambition is to own a 32 foot cruiser.
.
Vice Commodore Henderson made a
trip with his cruiser Elenoire to the
Lewis river last Sunday. On hU return
trip he stopped at St. Helens and In
spected the new ships being built
there. No doubt he will want a larger
cruiser built some day.
Rear Commodore Boost and A. A.
Hoover have been spending a great
deal of time at Oregon City fishing
for salmon. Some days they had good
luck, but most days they spent their
time sleeping aboard the Artisan.
While examining a 36 pound salmon
that Mr. Boost had Just caught one of
the guests of the Artisan let It slip out
of his hands and Mr. Salmon went to
the bottom of the river. Boost did not
say anything, but he did a lot of
thinking.
John Mclntyre has put a new muff
ler on the Margaret so be can sneak
up on the fish. This boat now makes
more speed.
Fred Peterson goes fishing often,
but no one around the club has ever
seen Fred bring home a fish.
Since Gus Gacle rebuilt the Gee
Whls his boat makes about four miles
per hour more speed than last year.
There are none of the club members

There's Some Class in Names
of De Witt and Knicker- v
bocker,
Confronted with the problem of
building up a team of young players,
J. O. Convlll. manager of the 1916
Multnomah Amateur Athletic club
football eleven, has enlisted K. L.
Knickerbocker, former coach of the
Detroit University school of Detroit,
Mich., and Wallace DeWltt, former
star half back of the Princeton team,
who played with the "Winged M" team
last fall, to assist in coaching this
year's eleven.
Knickerbocker, who Is now In busi
ness In Sheridan, Or., ranked among
the best "prep" school coaches In the
country, according to Convlll. It Is
said that Knickerbocker commanded a
$3ot0 salary the last year he was with
the Detroit university. "As a prep
school coach." said Convllle yesterday,
"he had Bob Zuppke, who Is now coach
ing the University of Illinois, backed
of? the boards."
The situation that Convlll faces Is
one that no other Multnomah manager
has ever had. Practically all the mem
bers of last season's squad, with the
exception of Captain Leonard Strle
big, Alec Donaldson, Clayton Sharp,
the Athena wonder, and one or two
others, will be missing when the 1316
call Is issued during the latter part of
September.
Convlll has several turprlses that
he will spring this fall. He Is confi
dent that he will be able to tijrn out
a strong eleven with the material that
he has in view.

FIRST SUBSCRIPTIONS
FOR MUNICIPAL LINKS

Louis Rosenblatt and S. Ben
son Head Donors for Golf
and Recreation Center,
EGAN LAYS OUT COURSE
Cost at Establishing Pirst Half of
Course Will Be Very &ow; Possi
bilities of Tract Wonderful.
Initial subscriptions totaling S5E5
have been made for the construction of
the 18 hole municipal golf course and
recreation center at the' 151 acre Ladd
Park in Kastmoreland, adjacent to 1
Reed college. In comparison with the
amount of money expended by other
cities "or the installation of municipal
golf courses. Portland wilt have the
finest of public links, to say nothing of
the beautiful park which alone Is well
worth the amount of money the city
will have expended In improving the
grounds, the friends of the recreation
iuea maintain.
The subscriptions made to date are:
Louis Rosenblatt $260
S. Benson 200
C. H. Davis Jr 60
Woodard-Clarke Co 60
C. P. Berg . 5
- Total $555
This amount of money has been sub
scribed without much of an effort on
the part of the committee, composed
of Victor A. Johnson, chairman; T.
Morris Dunne, Dr. Millard Hoibrook
and Dr. J. B. Wise.
Chairman jobjisoa Makes Appeal.
In a statement Issued yesterday by
Victor A. Johnson, an appeal Is made
to the public for subscriptions. The
statement is as follows:
"To th Public:
"For some time past this committee
has been working for a municipal golf
Unku lor Portland.
"This Is now made possible by the
action of the city in accepting the of
fei of the Ladd Estate company for
the use of 161 acres of land in Kast
moreland, the Ladd company agreeing
to pay all carrying charges and taxes,
fot a period of five years.
"This land is conveniently located on
a 5 cent carline, is admirably suited
for a golf course, and Is large enough
tr have considerable space devoted to
play grounds and general park pur
poses. It contains a lake of 12 acres
which can be used for boating. Reed
college has offered to throw open to
the public for three months each sum
mer its gymnasium, shower baths, ten
nls courts and other athletic eaulD-
acquire a wonderiul city play ground
for a mominal sum, but in order to get
It through we were obliged to pledge
the sum of $3000. It is estimated that
it will cost about 17000 to put in an
18-hole golf course and the city will
pay the balance. Once Installed It is
believed that it will be self support
ing. Only City Without Xdnks.
"At the present time Portland Is
the only city of any size on the coast
without municipal links. Nearly every
large city iu the east has one or more
courses, and we know that there is a
demand here.
"Wie have the promise of H. Chandler
Egan. former amateur golf champion.
I that hf a. ill lav out this course, and
this alone should give It a national rep
utation. We firmly believe that it
will prote to be a great asset and ad
vertisement for Portland, and will be
the means of attracting and keeping
for a considerable time many tour
ists, besides offering means of recrea
tion for thousands who now derive no
benefit from the city play grounds
For these reasons we believe that this
caus merits support and we will wel
come all subscriptions no matter how
smaU. It is very necessary that this
money be raised promptly as the com
ftiittee is anxious that this beautiful
recreation center be made available
for the use of the public as soon as
possible but no work can be started
until the money Is actually raised and
turned over to the city. .Make checks
payable to T. Morris Dunne, treasurer,
and mail to Multnomah Athletic club.
With tha expenditure of very little
money, the first nln. holes could be
put In shape for play, it is said. Most
of the fairways arc in good shape, save
for a little grubbing and the rolling.
At present the rolling could be done
very easily on account of the condi
tion of the grounds.
The possibilities of the proposed
course are wonderful. It will not be
a hard course, only three holes being
of a sporty and difficult nature.
The length of the holes as staked
out by chandler Ecan, are:

Description of Course.
The first hole is a good one. two
trees in the middle of the fairway, but
not in the line of play, serving as haz
zards. The- second hole and the third
bole are about the same as the first,
except being longer. There are no
trees In the fairways, but there are a
few little kopjes that might serve as
hazards. The fourth hole, which is
more or less of an uncertainty at the
present time due to the fact that the
laud on which it would be best to pla -e
the green is not owned by the Ladd
estate, but it ia believed that the own
er. In seeing the advantage to be gained,
will donate the use of the ground.
Johnson creek curves around this
piece of property and it would make an
ideal as well as a picturesque bole.
T!h fifth boas Is situated upon a
bluff. A 200 yard carry will place at
the bottom on the hill, and then a
pltcJh shot must be used. The sixth
is a 450 yard dog-Xeg hole, and tee, be
ing located-en a bluff, which will give
the: long driver an advantage over the
short fame players.
The seventh, eighth and ninth holes
sre situated on ground practically the
same as that of the first three boles.
The ninth hole is a sort of a dog leg
hole. ,
The second nine will require quite
a tilt of work, bat it will, be more in
teresting and more difficult than the
first nine, .,.,-.-- ' ' -
EVERYBODY CAN
PLAY GOLF; NOT
SPORT FOR RICH
Waverley Caddies Forego Na
tional Pastime for An
cient Scottish Game."
When you stop to consider, the
growth of the royal and ancient gam
of golf is truly amaslng. A few years
back, It was a game for the gray
headed and lame backed old men.
True enough, old men play the game
now and enjoy It. but what was
knockers' opinion when great numbers
of younger men teed, putted and holed
the elusive little pill. They declared
it waa a game for the Idle rich. This
statement has been disproved. Every
body Is now playing the game from
the small boy and the professional
athlete up to the most influential
business men.
The Installation or public courses
has made It possible for the various
classes to play the game. In past
years youngsters were crazy over base
ball, but at the Waverley Country
club none of the caddies seem to
care greatly about baseball. Thev
play golf every minute they can get
away from their work. They take
their one club and scramble out on
the polo field where they play. They
make their holes for putting with the
heels of their shoes.
Qolf among baseball players Is be
coming quite a fad and It Is so with
Willie Ritchie, the former world's
lightweight champion. Ritchie, who Is
at present in Chicago, plays the game
whenever he gets an opportunity
Ritchie declares that golf is a great
game for training as It keeps one out
In the open and affords good exercise.
And by the way, Ritchie i
quite a I
goirer. He will doubtless play over
the local course when he comes next
week.
There are a number of golfers among
the ball players on the coast. Poll
Perritt of the San Francisco team Is
an ardent devotee of the game and
he has taken it unto himself to teach
various Seal players the game. Man
ager Walter McCredle of the Portland
Beavers has played several rounds and
Pop Dillon, ex-manager of the Lom
Angeles team, spends a lot of time on
the links. A large number of the blr
leaguers have been bitten bv the bug
and from all reports that game is very
popular with them.
Eagles Take lxim Hike.

C. A. took their first hike of the sum
mer Friday, May 12. to Sherwood, re
