Sconti for Players
Manaper Rogers of he St Helens
rlub will return Monday or Tues
day from the Puget, Sound district,
where he has been endeavoring to
sign up several players. In view of
the fact that an effort is being made
to have the Shipyard league in Seat
tle run under amateur rales, it is
likely that Rogers will be able to
snare a number of good players
from that district.
The Standifer-Clarkson people
have been handicapped in putting up
their park. Negotiations are under
way to lease grounds, and as soon
as' it la signed 50 carpenters will
bo put to work erecting a grand

NEW YORK, March 30. (I. N. a)
The two Sox teams white and red
still stand out as the strongest combin
ations in the American league.
As the season of IBIS draws near
and the bugs start speculating on the
chances or the various oipbs in tne
pennant race, the new world's champs
and their bitter rivals in Boston de
mand a majority -of attention.
Other teams in the Ban Johnsonian
circuit have- been strengthened in vari
ous ways. Some have lost strength thati
cannot be regained. But the fact re
mains that the White Sox, bolstered
i with the confidence that cornea to a
winning team and standing pat on the
roster that won the American league
pennant last year and then forged its
iigure again una year.
JTew Flayers Stars 7
And those Boston Sox," bolstered by an
i influx of playera of the highest calibre
to take the places of the stars who have
entered the service of Uncle Sam. must
be figured practically on the same basis.
The recent .news that the White Sox
are reasonably aura of keeping Urban

lineup intact. Clarence Rowland has little

The writer isn't picking Chicago to win
the pennant in this article. It isn't quite
time to pick anybody. But from this dis
tance, the pennant looks like a tough ar
gument between the Sox teams.

JEXT to the Bullshevik and Bob
Blewett, the funniest thing in
the wide, wide world is the Port
land boxing commission. And it is
getting funnier all the time. . Too
bad that Phineaa T. and his circus
are non-exlstant. It's like listening
to Al Jolson ; you don't know what
is coming next. But as long as
fandom is well entertained and the
laughing Is continuous, who cares.
Adam, whether Sullivan & Considlne
went broke.
The latest laugh producer as ex
pounded by the brethren of tha
commission was the Great Trans
formation Act, the evolution of
Frank Barrleati from a main event

a first rate second class boxer""ln
Portland. Do you get It?
Doom! Boom! Boom!
'Because' Barrieau lost a main
event to Valley Trambltas the other
night, ba la doomed in Portland.
Commlsaionatically he Is consigned
to the B class of local boxers and
ho can't box another main event.
He may box a seml-wLndup or a
preliminary, but he cant box a
main event until he has gone away
from town and beaten Mike Gibbons
or Billy Mlske or Mike O'Dowd. Or.
.mayhap, he'll have to whale the tar
out of J. Willard before he can qual
ify again.
Where Barrieau made hla mis
take with the comVnission waa in
not been knocked out. If he'd been
cuckooed he'd have been all to the
gravy. For example, there la tha
case of Alex Trambltaa Alex for
got to duck and hit the canvas for
a count of 10, or it may have bean
a hundred. And a few weeks later
there was the' gallant little Rou
manian right back In tha ring in
another main event.
Ue BBoald Ba Prepared
So the boxer should be careful in
the future. Ha might ask the ref
eree along about tha one hundred
seventy-fifth second of the sixth
round about his chances, and if that
personage gave him the negative
wag of the noodle, he could stick
out his chin and go to sleep. Pain
ful, of course, but quits nacessary if
one is to keep in the good graces of
one's boxing commission.
Also there Is the loophole for the
boxer who doesn't walk on tha dol
lar side of the street, but who Is
beating an aristocrat of tha ring.
Even though tha former had a
chance to kayo the latter, he could
revenge himself by refusing to per
form the function. This, -according
to the commission, would automat
ically make a clasa B fighter of the
hated rival and vengeance would

in the Baker sfleld hospital. Pen

"It's a good thing your boys are here
or the Salt Lake club would be In worse
ahapo than It is," wrote Mac. Tha . '
pitching staff is in a bad way." '
Mac writes that Catcher Gomes has
been released, as Manager Fisher did
not like his style. Fisher thinks he will .

cult, and by this time Is probably on
hla way north to Portland.

A letter waa also received from Dock

that the judge would hear from him
later. Whether this la a threat .or a

both men and will then demand recog
nition, by Fulton before Fred tackles
Jess WUJard.
"I knocked out Fulton in our last en
gagement but the referee failed to count
until five seconds had passed and then
he made every count two second a Had
he acted immediately Fred would have
been on the floor at the 10 count. Tha
referee didnt do it intentionally. He
was surprised and he forgot his duty."
said Cowler.
- The date of the Dempsey-Miaks match
scheduled for St. Paul has been shifted
to May 3. It was originally set for April
26. Cowler has much praise for Fulton
and says his left hand will prove quite a
factor in the Willard fight.
