About the most important thing that happened at the Seattle meeting, and one which got under the skin of Al - Baum, Cal Ewlng, Hen Berry et al, was the naming of the Northwestern league the Pacific Coast International. Now Baum is getting ready to pro- . test to the National association on the allowance of the name, an it Bounds so much like the Pacific Coast league, which la camouflage for the Utah-Cali- : fornla circuit ' .. Tbst 5am'i Good Enough : It U. expected that the Pacific Coast International will put up a battle to re tain the long handle, which was caret ul ,' ly thought out and may be patented at Washington, D. C, by heck. ' ' The league, as has been mentioned, Is after Class A rating, and it won't con alder a population based on the returns of 1910, eight long years ago. If the ' Coast league. In Its efforts to prevent Class A rating for its neighbor to the ; north, makes any particular yelp on this score, as anticipated, there may be some fur flying. The Pacific Coast International Is young and cocky, and ready for a frolic or "a fight. It lacks a few thousand of ' having the million population specified in the obsolete rule of the baseball as sociation, but It is hardly believed that ' any sane man will say there are only 772,000 people In the big cities of the great Northwest now, eight years since the poll, - Player limit Fourteen Men ' Judsre McCredie figures that the play W limit will be 14 men, and the monthly payroll $2600, which is the Class A limit. Of course. If the league remains at Class , B rating, the salary will have to be dropped considerably. ; If the league Is given only the Class ' R ratln. It Is the -Intention or tne cir cult to go somewhat above the salary limit for Class B leagues, as the old ' Northwestern crowd had special permis t mnn to nT 11000 a month more than any thr class leaaue several years ago, and .It la presumed there would be no objec tion now.

Game Protectors Will Meet Yakima, Jan. 21. Sportsmen of the county, members of the Yakima County Game Protective association, will meet ' early this week to consider a number ot matters of particular interest. The tact that the sportsmen of the state are to be called together a.' Seattle In Feb ruary to consider proposed game legis lation Is one reason for the call for . local action.

THERE was a time when the profes sional was siinrORvl tn Va vn uttlv su perior to the amateur in every branch of sport, but nowadays In many lines the amateurs are the equal of the profes sionals and In many branches they have the professionals outdistanced. As far as ability goes there is but slight difference between the best of the professional and amateur trap shooters.

While the edge is with the nrnfM- slonals, the fraction of a target differ ence really proves the class of the am ateurs. The professional trapshooter is a field representative of a gun or ammunition company and the compilation of a high average is the thing that Interests him In the main. Shoots for Recreation Not so with the amateur. He Is a business man first, a trapshooter second. He goes Into trapshooting as a sport for recreation on his spare time, and the fact that he can do this and shoot as well as the fellow who is paid to shoot proves his ability. This Is the third time that the writer has selected all-Amerlcan trapshooting teams irom tne 10 nignest amateurs and professionals, and the 20 this time com piled a higher average than the teams of 1916 and 1916. The combined average of the two teams Is .9690 on 66,040 tar gets, which is unquestionably a classic mark. If a team race could be staged be tween the 10 highest amateurs and 10 highest professionals each year It would be a wonderful exhibition of tarret DreaKing.

Fandom Is losing confidence In Fred Fulton as a possible world cham pion. From all reports of the bout Friday night at St. Paul the mighty left that has received so much praise will never be able to admin ister a knockout blow to Jess Wll lard. Snorting writers are'now ques tioning Fulton's ability to stop Frank Moran when they meet in New Orleans February 22. When this bout was first announced It was generally predicted that 'the Rochester plasterer would register another victory. But when Billy Miske. working under the handicap of weight and reach, kept Fulton at bay the spotlight Is being rapidly shifted to the Pittsburg contender. He Lores to Swing Moran fights for the love of fight ing. Whether he Is putting on an exhibition bout or exerting every ounce of his strength in the ring with a title at stake, he is enjoying the show as much as the fans at the ringside. He goes into each BASEBALL MAGS IN WASHINGTON TO DISCUSS TAX Will Be Added to Admission Deadheads Will Also Be Swatted. Washington, Jan. 21. (I. N. S.) Base ball magnates reached here today for a conference with Commissioner of Inter nal Revenue Roper over the baseball tax for the coming season. Garry Herrmann, chairman of the Na tional commission, waa the first on the scene. He said that the commission planned today to reach a complete agreement with Commissioner Roper Just how the baseball tax under the war revenue law is to be collected. The plan of collecting the tax, it is admitted, will be to have the public pay It instead of the clubs. The amount called for under the law will be added to the admission charge so that It can be collected In advance. The "dead heads" also will have to pay the amount fixed by. Mr. Roper. Joe Stutt Returns . From Southern Trip Joe Stutt, well known Portland sportsman, has returned from Cali fornia with some interesting bits of information for the Portland fans, not the least of which Is the fact that President Baum of the Coast league Is figuring on using Umpire Pearl Casey again this season. Stutt also saw Walter Honeyman in San Francisco and the latter has been called in audience by, Mayor Rolph to discuss the Portland boxing commission system, which San Francisco may adopt. While the San Francisco state law limits boxing to four rounds. It is be lieved that with a commission to gov ern It, there would be less confusion than at present. Stutt has high praise for Battling Ortega, and saw him polish off Al Mc Coy, -ex-mlddleweight champion. He said that Ortega had McCoy's head bobbing 80 times in the last round and had the bout gone two more rounds McCoy would have been stowed away. He thinks Ortega will please the Portland fans, as he Is of the boring in type of boxer and fairly clever. He never backs up and is one of those fel lows who canr-hlt from, any angle1. 'Stuffy! Mclnnes Is AmongNewlyweds' Manchester, Mass., Jan. 21. (U. P.) When John "Stuffy" Mclnnes, now of the Red Sox, met Miss b Isle Dow here six years ago, Cupid made an entry in his book f probabilities. Saturday night he got out his book of facts and entered "Stuffy Mclnnes. married." Mclnnes and Miss Dow married here and left for a honeymoon of a. month. after which "Stuffy" will go to the Red Sox camp at Hot Springs.

Fulton on the ther hand has openly admitted that he does not love the ring sport. He fights be cause, well, because he got started at It somehow. He has never told the public that It was the lure of gold and the clinking of "easy coin" that started him first on his pugi listic career. That probably is the real reason. He Doesn't Love to Swing Fulton hates fighting although even his rivals must admit that he fights well. For a while he had hard work to overcome the fouling habit, his recent battles show that he Is now able to play the game ac cording to Hoyle. The psychology of the situation will be a decided advantage to Moran when they enter the ring at New Orleans. The Pittsburger Is now at Camp Wadsworth training " o get himself In the best shape for his battle. Meanwhile Fulton is not going to let his fighting trim decrease. SIMPSON'S IDEA IS BOXING WILL BE GIVEN BOOST Government's Recognition Means Much for Art After War Is Over. Tommy Simpson, the Oakland pro moter, who is here to second Battling Ortega In his battle with Al Sommers is of the belief that the boxing game will reach the highest stage of its existence in the period immediately after the war and that if promoters keep It clean it should not only prosper but became In time as popular as baseball. Simpson says that none of the pro moters is making any big money in California, but they are plugging along trying to entertain the fans and take their minds off the war. They look for an influx of the kale when the soldiers come marching home. Game Gets Established "Boxing- is getting a big boost from the government," said Simpson. "The mere fact of the government Installing boxing instructors at all of the army cantonments, Is establishing boxing as It was never thought possible. It Is ,the greatest exercise of all to fit the bayonet fighter for the short work in the trenches. "The more boxers we have the better. not only for the race Itself but for 'the sport. There will be a lot of young fel lows coming home from the war, who will want to take up the boxing game a profession, and in mere matter of numbers they will elevate the sport. Women Are Attending 'Tn our Oakland arena we provide clean shows and attendance of women is on quite a large scale. The presence of the fair sex has served to tone down the more exuberant of the male spec tators and, I may say, our boxing smoker is more like a theatre than any thing else. Women have been attend ing the shows in increasing numbers and appear to like the display of manly art." 4 Burtenshaw High In Gun Club Shoot Edward C.

NEW YORK. Jan. 21. (I. N. S.) No one blamed Branch Rlckev for un heard of demands he made on the Giants and Cubs some time ago in discussing the possibilities of a deal which would take Roger Hornsby away from the Cardinals. When Rickey demanded Fletcher. Kauff. Schrupp and cash from the Giants, or Alexander, Vaughan and J100.000 from the Cubs for the- services of Hornsby, he was simply kidding the (jiants and Cubs. He never permitted himself to dream of such one-sided trades, but he was tired of seeing printed reports of monstrous offers for his star short-stopper, and he simply exploded. You can't blame him for that Life yt Easy The life of the club owner Is not so easy as some folks believe, and when a club has a player of Hornsby'a ability who is making unfair demands In the way of salary It is pretty tough to have some rival club owner come along with bids, or reported bids, that are calcu lated to make the player swell up like a war balloon with Importance. Such tactics simply make trouble for the club owner who happens to be the goat, and In the long run they do the player more harm than good. Take Hornsby's case. Young Roger won deserved praise throughout the country for his great work as a short stop and he naturally felt pretty good about it. He was entitled to more money as a member of the Cards, and there is no doubt that the St. Louis club In tended and expected to rive him a hand some increase In salary this year. But what does Roger do but come out with a flat demand for a $10,000 salary. Want Big Boost Natnrally enough, the St Louis club balked. It did not want to be put In the light of being dictated to bv an employe, and Hornsby was notified that his demands were out of reason. Then Hornsby stated to the world at large that if he didn't get 110,000 for wear ing a St Louis uniform he would not play ball. As soon as some of the other National league club owners got wind of the trouble they commenced making bids for Hornsby, and they could not bo blamed for wanting; him. But if mag nates would make their bids on the Q. T. they'd save world of trouble and would get better results. When a club owner advertises his bids for players and then fails to land them he stirs up unfavorable impressions among the fans In his own town and helps make trouble all around. The average ball player Is entitled to all that he can get, and the average player generally gets all that he is worth to a ball club, but when a player gets swelled up on himself and develops an exaggerated opinion of his own import ance he isn't entitled to so much con sideration.
