Monday night Portland at Vancouver, B. C.
Wednesday night Vancouver at Seattle.
Friday night Seattle at Portland.
IT T ILL THE ROSEBUDS
tx hockey they uncorked in Friday night s contest against
Vancouver? This is the big question in the minds of the
local fans.
Defensively, the Buds rank as the. best team in the league, but
their offensive attack has been theif weak point. During the sec
ond period of the game against the Millionaires, Portland players
played like the champions of the world. Their attack proved far
too much for the Canadians.
The form displayed by Harris
wm a sample of what he can do
If he sets, his mind on the game.
Harris was everywhere on the ice,
hi back-checking being very effect-,:
Ive and his passing In the second
period being of high standard.

larity with the fans by his speedy

the last game, but he will start
against Vancouver, and much Is

WAR DOES
NOT HURT
A. L. TIGERS
Despite Loss of Eight Players
Detroit Will Have Strong
Team in Pennant Race.
EIGHT TIGERS 13T SERVICE
Of the Tigers, eight men hare en
tered some branch of the country's
service.
Hollywood, TTIehoIson, Puller, Alteo,
and Oldham have Joined the Army.
EUljMta Is ia the aviation corps.
Howard Ehmke and Del Baker Joined
the aary. . v
' By H. C. Hamilton
NEW YdRK, Feb.- 9. (U. P.) There
, will be no weakening of the Tigers
next season, if Ty Cobb returns to the
team instead of taking part in the war
on Germany.
Some departures appear to have struck
the club in the midriff, but, aa a matter
of fact, the Tigers actually will be
stronger In some parts than when they
gave up the battle for a. pennant last
fall. For Instance, the Infield will have
some added strength in the person of
Lpeo Dressn. a first class first baseman,
and in the- hurling corps Hughle Jen
nings really should get some American-
league material out of his youngsters.
Kalllo Is Promising
Rudy. Kail lo Is the most promising of
the youths who will wear the Tiger
spangles next season. ' He cornea from
the Pacific Coast league with a long
record of effectiveness. His acquisition
is fully , expected . to offset the loss in
the enlistment of Howard Ehmke, an
other coast graduate who had proved a
real find.
The heavy Detroit attack will remain.
Ty Cobb. BobVeach and Harry. Hell
man. as doughty a trio of sluggers as
baseball can boast, will be back pro
vided, of course, the army or navy
doesn'tappeal too strongly to them. The
infield will be intact, with the probable
exception of George Burns, and If Dres-
sen is capable of putting the skids under
Burns and taking over the defense of
first base, himself the Tigers are certain
to be stronger In the Inner works. .
- ' ' Are Good Fielders
Th Tiger Infield never has been as
heavy a gang of artillery as cpuld be
desired. Fielding has been a heavy point
with tha olub, however, and a little
punch shot In there will work wonders.
In Vitt the Tigers have a third baseman
who Is generally rated on a par with
Buck Weaver. Donle Bush is one of the
very best shortstops In the big leagues.
Pep Young Is a . passing fair second
baseman. If Burns can keep his health
and play regular baseball, or If Dressen
proves up to advance notice, the Tigers
will be wen set. . ; '
Weak a Twirlers
Pitchers always have been a soft spot
In Detroit since-the days of Wild Bill
Donovan. Hints that BUI might attach
himself to the Tigers for coaching pur
poses, therefore, sounds mighty fine In
the Michigan metropolis. . Bill might be
able to put something in that pitching
staff. . With a fine crop of youngsters
to -work-on,, it may" be that the-Tiger
machine yet will get started toward the
point it has hoped for so long. The
punch Is certainly there. Wheneverjthe
Tigers get to cutting downjujo opposi
tlon to slightly fewer runs the Amerl
can league Is going to recognise an up
start. . . .

Prospects For
Joplin Boxing
Chicago, Feb. 9. After a long
period, during which. It seemed Jess
Wlllard and. Fred Fulton might be
drifting together - for a match that
would settle Fulton's status as a
championship contender, the tide ap
parently haa now turned the - other
way, and prospects' of a Willard
Fulton match seem more remote
than- ever;. The rock on which the
negotiations came to grief was the
Fulton-Mlske fracas at St. Paul last
month.
Had Fulton defeated MLake. deci
sively, as most fight fans, believe he .
should have done, it Is not unlikely .
that Wlllard and the big Minnesota
trowel manipulator wpuld have got
ten together , in Chicago the week, of
January 20-26 . and talked business.
Such a conference waa -planned, but
after the fight at St. Paul it fell
through.
Objects to Second Bater
When Fulton failed to put Miska
away .or even to make an Impressive
showing with a man mors than 80
pounds lighter than himself, Wlllard
Immediately cam forth-with a state
ment that he did not understand
how Fulton could continue to call
himself a topnotch heavyweight. And
Big Jess made it plain that he was
not desirous of entering the ring
with a second-rater.
.Mike" Collins, the enterprising
manager of Fulton, camouflaged his
chagrin over the showing of his bat
tler by coming forth with a state
ment that he did not see any use in
talking business with Wlllard until
Wlllard announced a' definite basis
on which to negotiate for a cham
pionship match. Inasmuch as Wll
lard , had repeatedly announced ho
would fight at any time on the one
condition that both contestants give
their entire -earnings for the fight
to the Red Cross, Collin's statement
appears. to be without much foun-
. dation. ,
. One Chance Left
There is one chance still remain
ing, however,?, that may, bring Wll
lard and Fulton together again. If
Fulton' should come out a decisive
victor In .his bout with Frank Moran,
at , New ' Orleans, some time this
month,'v Wlllard might revise his
opinion of Fulton's fighting ability.
The Moran bout looks like Fulton's
chance to rehabilitate himself In the
heavyweight ranks.
After reports of the Fulton-Mlske
fight tend -to minimize the showing
made by Mtske. Altough critics
agree that Fulton did not fight as he
had been expected to. It Is also
J ack Dillon Through
Top Notch Boxer
Jack .Dillon, once renowned "Hoosler
Bearcat," is through as a fighter of top
most class, but Dillon is having - no
trouble keeping the wolf from the door.
The reputation he' acquired in the days
when he was hammering the ambition
out of the best of the light heavies and
a great many of the heavies, seems to
be carrying him right along.
Dillon' fought- George Chip ' recently
and even decrepit old George took a de
cision from the former mankiller. But
Dillon went right ahead and got himself
matched for some more brawls.
' - To Build ; New Park In Cuba . .';
Abel Linares, former president of the
Cuban National Baseball league. Is
building a new park - in the center of
Havana. ' Games will start in March.
An efort will be made to havo some of
the Major league teams go to Havana
this spring from Florida for . practice
games. : -
i Volley Ball at .Harvard
Dr. Dudley A. Sargent, director of the
Hemingway gymnasium of Harvard
university, . favors L the introduction - of
volley ball, handball, battleboll and
many other playground games tn the
students' athletic curriculum. ' .
Battle Remote
Club Success
agreed by many competent . Judgea
that Mlske did not come anywhere
near outpointing Fulton. Many
sports writers who saw. the fight be
lieve that Fulton had a shade the
better of It and that Mlske was
lucky to stay the full 10 rounds.
Fifteen Years of Boxing '
Fifteen years of continuous public
boxing, entirely uninterrupted in all
that time, Is the remarkable record
hung up by Joplin, Mo. It is be
lieved no other city in the country
has a record equalling It.
In almost every city where boxing
has flourished In the last 15 years,
there have been Intervals when the
sport was forced to - suspend. But
Joplin- goes merrily on with abso
lutely nothing to halt the even tenor
of Its pugilistic way.
And in all that time and this is
the most remarkable partthere has
been but one promoter in Joplin. He
Is Jimmy Bronson, and" he runs an
organisation known as the South
west Athletlo club. The club has a
membership of 4600.
Joplln's method of running the
game probably could be tried to ad
vantage In other sections of the
country. The big business houses of
the town support the club. Member
ships are sold for a dollar and this
money may be applied upon a' ticket
for any of the entertainments during
the year. Of course the prices of the
tickets run higher than that, but
one must have an original member
ship card to get In.
Commission la Charge
The mayor appoints a commission
of three to run things and the mem
bers serve without compensation.
Boxing, wrestling And all other
sports are out of the state's hands
and under the commission's control
as far as Joplin is concerned. Tom
Douglas, a wealthy mine owner, la
chairman, and other members are
Henry Connolly, a prominent tailor,
and Judge C. M. Walden, an attor
ney. The city collects a. license fee of
$10 for each show, and 15 rounds
without decisions , aTre permitted.
Bronson says that he has sold as
high as 600 memberships at once to
business firms who use them for ad
vertising purpose. .They consider it
good business and an ad for the city.
Joplin has had soma excellent
bouts' in the last 15 years, and
boasts of a state record for receipts
at a boxing show. The "V"arl Morrts
Jlm:FIynn show drew $11,000, and
several others have approached that
mark. 1
Hendricks Denies He
If After A. A. Stars
When Jack Hendricks took up his du
ties as manager of the Cardinals,
was reported he was after Duke lieilly
Steve, YerkeS and Herman Bronkie,
members of the Indianapolis American
Association cltfb. The three form the
backbone of the club with which Hen
drioks won the 1917 pennant. Jack im
mediately denied it, but admitted he
wanted one more outfielder to fit. in
with Walter Cruise and Jack Smith.

WAVERLEY
J; J? AccL
President Glass Will Lay k Plan
Before Directors; Would In
crease Interest in Game.
PRESIDENT GRAHAM GLASS. SR..
of the Waverley Country club, will
place the question of forming a state golf
association, as suggested by The
Journal, before the next meeting of tha
directors of the club for consideration.
It is believed that the Waverley' direc
tors will cooperate with the other clubs
in the organisation of a body to award
and set the dates of championship
events. . ..
President John G. Clemson of the
Portland Golf club has placed the matter
bofore the directors of the Portland
club, and a committee has been an-
pointed to look into' the matter.
Benefit to Golf
"There is no doubt that the orranlsa
tlon, such as suggested by The Journal,
would create a great deal of interest
among the golf players. The Portland
Lawn Tennis association waa a huge
success during its first year and I am of
the opinion that a similar body would
be a great benefit to golf."
Roscoe C Nelson, chairman of the
handicap committee of the Tualatin
Country club, is In favor of the organi
sation. Although no official word has been re
ceived from out-of-town clubs, it is be
lieved that the Salem Country club and
the Eugene Country club would Join
hands If such an -organisation were
formed.
State Meet TJatselded -Just
where the state championship
tournament will be staged this year has
not been decided. The Waverley Coun
try club will not put in a bid for the
event this season, and if a tournament
is to be held it will have to be staged
either on the links of the Portland Golf
club or the Tualatin Country club.

N I VERS IT Y OF OREGON, Eugene, Feb. 9. CrackinR--.
fine weather has Sent varsity fans thinking of spring, with
baseball anil track loomine to the foreground, and has like-.
u
wise, increased fandom's interest in wrestling and .basketball,
which will hold sway for another rnonth or more. ,
The return of Bill Hay ward from Camp Lewis the early part
of the week has added additional punch to varsity basketball, just
as the arrival of former wrestling coach Edward Shockley has
revived the mat game,.which was fast on the wane at Oregon. '
Bill Hay ward plans a near entire change in his green basket-,
ball quintet. Ever since the disastrous series with the Aggies
every possible combination has been tried in an effort to secure
greater offensive strength, without hindering a checking defense
Inexperience and inability to grab the finer points of the game, as
well as a lack of team play have made the varsity easy for oppos-.
ing fives.
' Unless some new star develops.
Dot Medley. Besdek'a star forward
pass receiver of last year's football
campaign, will play one of the for
ward positions in the coming series
with Washington on February IS
apd 19. Medley has always played
basketball in a guard position, but
his ability to dribble and put the
ball in the net from close range has
caused Hayward to switch him to
strengthen up his team offensive.
Billie Morrison, the diminutive for
ward, will run with Medley. Mor- ,
rlson was sadly off. color In the
Aggie series, but fandom expects
him . to come back In the coming
games.
Comfort at Center Berth
Charley . Comfort, the big 1S5
pound Junior, will be seen In the
center berth. Comfort lacks the
dash of an experienced basketball
man, but has lately found his eye,
and may be counted on for a few
hoop shots In each game. Pow Wil
son, end on the football team, will
play one guard . position, with BUI
Steers, football star from Tha
Dalles, fighting it out with Par
sons for the other sentinel berth.
Walter Grebe of Portland and Ned
Fowler of Pendleton are In, line
for first substitute's berths. ,
The lemon-yellow i has a atrenu
ous schedule ahead of them in the
coming three weeks. : The University
of Washington five will play on the
local floor on February 19 and 19.
followed by O. A. C. for the final
two games of the four game series,
scheduled for Eugene the nights of
February 21 and 2X. Oregon will
oomplete her season the last week
end In February an the first two
days in March. She will meet the
Camp Lewis -team V at American
Lake on February 27 ; play the Uni
versity of Washington the -following,
two nights, and finish up with
Multnomah club in; Portland on
March 2. )
Wreatllag Tryosts COmlsg
Varsity wrestling tryouta, to de
cide who will represent Oregon
against the Washington mat men '
on February 1 at Seattle, will
take place Monday afternoon, un
der the direction of Coach Ed
ward Shockley. j
Slmola and Flegel will fight It
out . for the 115 pound class, with
present odds favoring Simola.
Claude Hill, ,a holdover from last
year, has no opponent in the 125
pound class. Dwlght Wilson, of
the 1917 team, will J struggle with
Charles Dundore, a senior from
Portland, to hold down hla 115
pound berth. Captain Harold
"Bearcat" Grey seems assured of
his place in the 14$ division, as
does George - Taylor j in the light
heavyweight class. .. j
Track Looks Gloomy
Gloom is the only! thing Coach
Hayward hands out when ap
proached concerning varsity track
prospects. "I have ho prospects,"
said the famous coach, when In
terviewed last week. "I know
right now, within five points, ex
actly what I can get in each
meet. Give me three men for each
event - and we can heat O. A. C.
otherwise they will whip us
easily."
But five men of any experience
are. in college and only one, Oscar
