. . ..
Oregenians Pull Out With 14 Hits,
Monday Mackmen and
Honors Starting
A.CK in the, lead of the Pacific Coast league are our Battling Beavers,
and it all came about because the local club clipped the wings of
IhefLoB Angelea Angels t6 the tune of 12 to 3 Monday afternoon at Vaughn
itreet. It was one of the old fashioned slugfests with the Oregonians
poling out a total of 14 hits before the contest was completed.
Incidentally the Beavers took the
mencing Tuesday afternoon the race
circuit with -San Francisco opposing Portland on the local diamond. The
3eal won the series from Seattle without much trouble last week, although
by losing to the Rainiers Monday, the Oregonians hopped on top of the
team standings.
BEAVER FIREWORKS START
Before the Beavers could get started
Monday, the visitors had jumped on Car
roll Jones .for three runs. From the time
Springer opened up the third inning
rith a bit until th last Angel was out
n the ninth It was nothing but Port
and. Six of the Beavers ciossed the rubber
is son as the fireworks started in tne
bird, and "Klbby" Spranger opened
ind closed the session. After scoring
mother marker in the sixth, Portland
ame back with four more in the aev
mth. mainly because Lew Blue tripled
o the left center field fence with
'o on. .
Every one of the home outfit made a
tit, and the best part of the whole bat-
ling bee was the work of Cal Jones.
9e made two singles and he looked like
second "Babe" Ruth that Is, taking
ihe way Ruth went last year.
Biff Schaller had the old eye on the
tpple and got away with a duo of safe
ties, as did Spranger, Cox and Blue.
ERRORS HELP VISITORS
Los Angeles scored one in the first
ind two In the third. Errors by Wis
przil and Blue helped the Californlans
o pui across me two counters. ine
hird inning for Portland went like this:
Jpranger, Jones and Blue singled. Wis
serxil was hit by a pitched ball, forcing
n Spranger. Maisel was safe on Niehoff s
rror, Jones scoring only to have
Schaller single to right scoring Blue
ind Wisterzil. At this stage of the con
gest Manager Wade KlUefer Injected
Pertica into the lineup to replace Ray
Seating. It was the first time in the
wries that a mound change was mad?
y either team. Cox struck out and
Eoehler went out. Pertica to Griggs.
Wes Kingdon then came along with a
tingle, which added two more runs.
Spranger struck out.
IJumovlch. a southpaw, was put In by
Sillefer in the eighth Inning and he was
xeated rather roughly, but at that he
wasn't entirely to blame for the lone
nn scored off his delivery.
KUlefer and his Southerners left for
3eattle late last night to meet Clyde

Shrine Week
By Bob
IT IS more than likely that Portland
residents and visiting Shiiners who
enjoy boxing will be given a chance to
see the world's best glove artists during
the national session week in June.
Benny Leonard. - lightweight Champion
of the world, and Pete HermanL bantam
weight champion of the universe, are al
most certain to be seen in action.
Matchmaker Bobby Evans of the
Portland boxing commission is now
dickering with these kingpins. Leon
ard's press agent reached Portland Mon
day. He will be followed by Manager
Billy Gibson, who is due to arrive
Wednesday. Evans . expects to close
with Gibson for Leonard's service for at
least one fight, and probably two, before
the week is ended.
Leonard's opponent may be Charley
White, if White's services can be ob
tained. If not White, it may be Eddie
Shannon, Pacific coast lightweight king.
If neither of these can be signed, the
best lightweight -obtainable will be
signed against Leonard.
If terms are arranged with Bantam
Champ. Kid Herman, his opponent will
be Billy Mascott
Another match in the prospective is
between Joe Gorman, Portland feather
weight, and Featherweight Champion
Johnny Kilbane. Negotiation' are under
way with Kilbane. j-
In all, Portland has prospects of see
ing three world's champions perform in
the space of a few days.
Should Evans be successful in signing
these topnotchers, a stadium, capable of
Eeating a vast throng, will be erected for
the purpose.

Boys Deserve
Some Praise
Two Opening Matches on Armory
Card Friday Night Expected
to Provide Thrills.
Bj Bob
IN WRITING or sneaking of boxing
smokers, we are too prone to overlook
the preliminary boys. Such a policy is
not giving these initial performers their
Just dues. Not infrequently the curtain
raiser and the bout which immediately
follows it have redeemed or almost saved
some supposedly high-class cards from
the utmost monotony and boredom. The
champions of the world today the
Dempseys, the Carpentiers, the O'Dowds,
the Leonards, the Kllbanes, the Hermans
and the Wfldes were at one time trot
ted out to open boxing programs. Pos
sibly some of these champions put up
better fights, from the standpoint of the
crowd, before they became champions
and had reputations to risk than they
have since.
Assuming that to be the case, I intend
to give a bit of publicity to the four
featherweights who will open the smoker
for the Portland commission at the Ar
mory Friday night. Kach one of the
four boys is a game, willing fighter, and
two of them, at least Earl Zimmerman
and Sammy Gorman are finished box
ers. Time was and not so long ago
when we would have crowded into a
house where the youngsters were fea
tured as a semi-windup or even a wind-
up. But we focget them, now that we
are swamped with champions and near
champions from strange lands.
Sammy , Gordon suffered some set
backs in Portland before he ventured
down South not many months ago.' But
he came back here, after his invasion of
California, with a string of . victories
over first-class boys credited to him. He
has had one fight since his return his
draw with the English bantam, Harry
Mansell. Sammy showed in that fight
that he was game to the core, knew how
to box. knew how to take a punch and
knew how to give one. These are qual
ifications which go to make champions.
Earl Zimmerman, who will be Sam
my's opponent, is another tartar fully
as game as Sammy, probably not quite
so clever, possibly a harder hitter, and
doubtless able to assimilate as much
punishment- He has always, given the
crowd cause for enthusiasm in all his
fights. He holds two decisions over
Sammy, facts which indicate that the
forthcoming bout will be more or less of
a grudge affair.
George Bums battered his way to
popularity when he stowed Freddie
Lough away in two rounds at the last
smoker. He is a veritable demon on
wheels, to paraphrase a poem, when he
gets started, and such a thing as a
punch being in his way never stops him.
He takes 'em in order to get within fir
ing range. And when he does get there
he whales away with both hands from
every conceivable angle.
Johnny Tr&mbitas is a younger mem
ber of the fighting Trambitas family,
and is a brother of Alex and Valley. He
is in his early 'teens yet, has never
fought in Portland or often outside
Portland, but he has the experience ef
a veteran through his mingling with
training camps and his workouts with
professionals. Young Trambitas ought
to put,. Burns to a severe test.
With such preliminary boys as this,
the card which features Frank Farmer
and Tiny IIman in the wind-up. Joe
Gorman and Sam Langford in the semi
windup and Stanley Willis and Frankie
Murphy in a special event, ought to pro
vide thrills for the most exacting fans.
In all, 38 rounds of boxing is scheduled.
It is probable that neither Sammy Gor
don nor Earl Zimmerman, so Match
maker Bobby Evans asserts, can be used
on Friday night's card. Unless an oppon
ent suitable for one or the other can be
signed up today. Evans learned at a
late hour that Earl Zimmerman had
taken on weight since his trip down
South and that he outweighs Sammy too
much for a match between the boys.
Some one will have to be substituted for
either Sammy or Earl In case it is de
cided to use one or the other. If an op
ponent cannot be found for either of
them. Abe Gordon. Sammy's older and
lighter brother, will be featured in a
four-round event with Johnny Coy, an
other fast flyweight. This will be Abe's
first appearance here in many months.
Tickets for the smoker were put on
xale at Rich's and Stiller s this morning.

Title Contest

to Hold Billiard Champion
ships in 1920.
FiRTLAND may take an Internation
al p'.ace in billiards.
R. B. Benjamin, manager of the bil
liard champions now In the Rose City,
and the man who so successfully pro
moted the three titled tourneys last fall,
announced at a dinner for the billiard
ists and newspapermen at the Hotel
Benson Monday night that Portland
most likely would be awarded one of the
three world's championship tourneys
during 1920.
J. J. Parker. Portlasd sportsman, who
is responsible for the appearance of the
cue champions in this city this week,
was host to the party at the Benson.
He made such an attractive offer to
bring one of the title tourneys here that
Promoter Benjamin said there was a big
chance of Portland landing one of them,
probably the 18.2 baikline.
This will be the first time that a
championship event in billiards even has
been suggested being taken from the
East or Middle West. Last fall the
balkling tourpey was held in New York,
the pocket billiards in Philadelphia and
the three cushions in Cleveland. The
class of the billiard tottrney to be held
in Portland will be announced later.
Harry D. Green, manager of the Rialto
Billiard parlors, is the man who Is so
anxious to stage the championship. It
was at his suggestion that Owner Parker
went to Promoter Benjamin. If the
tourney is awarded to Portland, it will
be held under the auspices of the Rialto
parlors.
According to Promoter Benjamin, who
has visited most every billiard parlor In
the United States during the last seven
years, the Rialto parlors rate with any
thing in the country for a one-floor
room.
William F. Hoppe. Ralph Greenleaf,
Charles Peterson. Jerome Keogh, R. B.
Benjamin, Harry Green, A. R. McKinley,
F. N. Clark. Seneca Fouts and Sol Stil
ler were among those present at the
Parker dinner.
HOPPE SCORES TWO RUNS
OF MORE THAN 200 MONDAY
Displaying a complete mastery over
the elusive Ivories at all times, and
showing a stroke that was so delicate
and fine that the spheres appeared to
halt at his beck and call. Willie Hoppe.
perpetual billiard champion, opened the
big league billiard week Monday at The
Rialto palace, appearing before capacity
audiences at both the afternoon' and
evening performances. The king of 'em
all in the green cloth world was in
brilliant stroke and, just to show the
enthusiasts that he still stands without
a peer in his particular line of en
deavor, he gathered two runs above the
200 mark, both of whlph were unfin
ished. It was in the afternoon tilt against
Charles C. Peterson, the St. Loui balk
line artist, that Hoppe registered his
