Hood River, Or., Bept. Sl In view of the fact that a- number of old apT pis packers of Hood .River are expect ing to spend the fruit season in Yak ima and Wenatchee, where. It la re ported, the prices for packing are higher than in Hood River, this val ley may be face to face with a short age of apple packers this season.

That Europe's little fight Is not the aiiIt relic of the barbario ages in vogue today was demonstrated yester day afternoon at Reed college, when ths Jousting matches of old were re vived in a slightly changed form. The point was much the same as it used to be, but it was not done so pointedly; that is, the points of the lances were blunted by large wads of rags. The occasion was tne rirst annual water carnival, held on the lake on the college campus, and the revised edition of jousting was a canoe tilting con test. The knights of the afternoon were armored in bathing suits. The worked in pairs, one knight shoving the wobbly steed or, rather, the canoe while the other handled the revised lance. Only two pairs of knights were al lowed on the field at the same time, and these were at opposite ends. When King Arthur or, rather, Professor Harry B. Torrey-'-blew his horn (that is revolver), the steeds wobbled to w ard each other for the fray, a knight standing on the neck or prow of each and armed with the lance. Bach poked the other, with the result that one of them got damp as he sat on the Held. An element of humor was Introduced into the occasion when Sir John Dam bach did not play according to Hoyle. Instead of using his lance to shove the other knight . into the middle of next week, as the book says. Sir John shoved the nose of the steed, and Sir Wilson, his rival, took a premature drink. When they tried it over, how ever. Sir Wilson avenged the insult by spilling both Sir Daxnbach and his squire, Russel Frost. Ray Wilson and his squire, John Van Etten. took the queen's Jewels for the day. winning all of three Jousts. The ladies also took part in the fes tivities of ths day.

Insurance amounts to J1500. Jess Willard, champion of the cham pions, is in town today but not to fight Jess is doing a turn with a cir cus, cowboy stuff and son sparring. He doesn't appear In the parade, nix. Cherokee Tom Jones, one of the, many managers of Big Jess, has seen to that If you wants to see Jess, you pays your money ami you walks in. Cherokee Tom, the Kewanee barber, dropped into town last night to make plans for the proper entree for the champion. Jack Curley, who was here some time ago, had arranged the pre lim stuff.

He was advertised as being with the show. The posters were gotten out when the rasslin' champion was with the show, and they looked too pretty to throw away after Frank broke his leg., and had to quit the col lections of champions and near-champions.

New York, ept L (U. P.) Nerve and fighting spirit has carried the Boston Red SOx, champions of the baseball world, out of danger for the moment In the American league race. By their gritty feat of winning two games in a row from ths Tigers and eliminating the Detroit menace from a chance for first place honors, the champions are now two full games ahead of the field and going strong. In the meantime the National league's merry trl-cornered whirl tor the pennant grew tighter, through the feat of Al Demaree in winning two contests in a single day for the Phil lies. The latter club is now in a fair way to challenge the claim of the Dodgers to otfrrership of this year's Tener pen nant Bengals Slip Into Third. The Red Sox performed quite a lit tle stunt when they pulled the blocks from under the Tigers in the second game of their series yesterday. The skids were so well greased that the Tigers didn't end their slide until they had landed in third place and where they now are planted half a game behind the White Sox, who were mauling the Athletics while the Red Sox were smashing the Tigers' defense. ir tne .Red Sox are now unseated from the pinnacle position the club that upsets them la entitled to all the honors it can get. The champions pounded out a victory over the Tigers yesterday after they .had got away to a poor start Three runs were staring hem in the face before they fairly realized what was happening, but they had the nerve and they won. Only Bumps Vow Worry. The Tigers may win the game still left in the series, but it doesn't mat ter a great deal. The Red Sox stiil will be in first place and will open in Cleveland in that position. After the Cleveland series they will go horni and then Jack Barry probably will be back in the line-up. The chance seems to have-slipped out of Detroit's grasp. Only a remarkable recovery by the Tigers and a series of bumps for the Red Sox can- prevent Bill Carrigan again leading his charges to a world's series. The Dodgers find themselves chal lenged by the pestering Phillies again today. The Phillies are now only a game and a half in the rear. The Braves slipped when they were steDDed on with humiliating force by the last 1 place Keds. Today the Cardinals and Dodgers again will meet, and the Phillies are carded for another session with the Plratea. The Braves must meet those presuming Reds again and win to keep within hailing distance. Peter Look Captures Horse Review Stake Columbus, Sept. 21.
