TMK OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND. PREGON. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 25. 1820. "Happy" Kuehn, - "' """" III i i . -w. In .. Multnomah Club Diver, Returns With World's Championship Crown "Winged M" Star Brings Back Honors .-Br Earl K. GooSwia PiRTLAND-S worlds champion awing , , board diver la home. Louia Kuehn Jr., better known to hi t many friends' aa Just plain "Happy," J arrived In the Roaa City Saturday morn; J ing after a Ispse of mora than aaven weeks, during which ha represented tha J United State at tha Olyrrtpio gamea In Antwerp. Belgium. ? It waa at Antwerp that "Happy" sur . J)ried tha athletic wrld by taking firat t pldfce in the spring board event The 1 5 year-old Multnomah Amateur Athletic club wonder, along with ' tha other '. American divers, waa laboring under many difficulties antl hardahipa but de- dared winner over the rest of the world'a beat performer. - , i rHAISEM COACH I "From the very atart the United State diver were considered extra weight," "Happy" said, "and it waa ngured that wa didn'tahave a chanca to win any. of ' the honors. ' Soon after our arrival in . Belgium the original coach waa we.nt ' back to the Statea mainly because of hia 5 attitude toward tha divine; team, and 'Dad Center of Honolulu wa named to handle our affaira. He certainly deserves a lot of credit for the way he helped us in our battle. SOME CRITICISM JUSTIFIED "I wa only able to practice five times after reaching the other aide, and the water wa rather chilly, something like 0 degree, and the air seemed a little above freeslng-. Wa hadn't been there very long when I waa one of the boya picked to be aent back home on the flrat boat, even before competing. This waa because, as 1 said before, we were J ; not figured on to make a good showing against the foreign divers, ; "After I won well, things were dlf- . ferrtit. . - 'A for the criticism that ha been showered on the heads of the members of the committee 4n charge of the United (States team, some of it Is justified. Going across on the boat things were rather bad, but we realised that It waa the best that could be had at that time a lid under the circumstances. We didn't t . want tha committee to think that we f ' were going to stand for almllar things ; when we hit dry land and for that rea- son we held what might be termed a pro i '.. test meeting ' on board ehlp. Norman ' - Ross, another Portland boy, was spokes man for the athletes. J. rVRCHASED OWN FOOI "He told them that we expected things to be different in Belgium. The first day or two on the other side the food waa not just exactly what it should have " , been, especially for a bunch of athlete who were In training and keyed up to , a nervous pitch. But there was one aat- i Is taction in being on land instead of on ; ' the boat. The fellows could go out and i purchase food from stores or restau rants, something that was not avail able on board ahlp. "Everyone waa supposed to be In 1 - quarters, a Belgium schoolhouse, by "10 :30 o'clock each night. The trouble i that arose over Dan Ahem was settled all right. Dan said that he pouldn't waa so much noiae, so he went to a "hotel. The committee didn't like this, and told him so, adding that he could . consider himself off the team if he didn't i 'atay with the athietea. We felt that this '!ws an Injustice and the committee was let in on our 'secret.' He competed. ' . TAKE BEST COMING HOME "Everyone tried to do the right thing -about keeping in condition and I think : the performances, for the most part, will 'verify this. If an athlete failed to get ;back to the quarters by the set time the excuse of 'I got lost and couldn't find my way back' waa enough to permit . thing to be settled. , "Because of the shortage of passenger ' accommodation on boats returning to ' the United Statea after the games we had to take what we could get Now take my case tor example. 1 waa with four , other members of the team. We had a three-room suite on board the Lap . i ' land, a private balh and a sitting room. ; W certainly were 'aitting pretty,' but , wl figured that we almost had It com ing! after what we had been subjected to. Matt Halplo. manager Of the United ' States team and a wonderful fellow who " has followed tha Olympic games for the - last 12 or 1( yeara. came to rae at .:S0 o'clock on, night and asked .me If I wanted to return on the Lapland. We had, mad temporary arrangements to leave Belgium on September 10. "I aaked him when the boat left and he aald '7 o'clock tn the morning.' So you see that It waa a case of acting Quick. Tou couldn't tell him you would think about It. for there were many others, waiting for the chance to return. , TO H030R Kt'EHIC "After the games we were taken on the battlefield. Including Farla." Frank E. Watklns. chairman of the wimmlng"and diving committee of the . Multnomah Amateur Athletic club, an- . nounoed thla morning that an "open ' Viauaa" tn.etino- will ha held In the r , 3 Winged "M" gymnasium Thursday night. ; October 7. at which time ''Happy" Kuehn 4 will be the guest of honor and will be 1 presented with a life membership In the I Cardinal and Whit Institution.

Friday was the greatest I ever lived, for the brothers from my otd school in Baltimore and the chool band of little kids were watch ing me'srhen I slammed out my fiftieth and fifty-first home runs, a mark that the baseball experts say will probably stand for many years after I have drifted along. It waa like coming back to the old home town a millionaire after making a fortune in the big city. The Senators pitched a boy from Cuba. A cost, In the first game. X came up In the first In ning, and with the count three and two Against me, leaned against a fast ball, it went Into the upper tier. The reat of that game I didn't get a hit.. But In the first inning of the second game, Shaw tempted me and I fell on the ball again. Thla drive went clear Into the right field bleachers. After that I got a double and two singles, makfng a batting average of .1000 for the game. The school band from SalnJ. Mary, where I grew up from thatime I was six until I left to go with tha Baltimore Orioles at the age of 19. sat In the left field stand playing the old school song and they serenaded me When I came out of the dressing room after the double header was over. MANY FOOTBALL GAMES SLATED IN EAST TODAY NEW YORK, Sept. 25. (I. N. S.) The football lid blew off today In every section of the courttry. The games sched uled were unimportant but they will give fana and coaches an opportunity to In spect the strength of new 'material. Harvard Is the first of the Kast's "Wf Ulree" to get started. The Cam bridge team takes on Holy Cross at Camrldge, with every chance of laying up a big score. The Harvard line is heavy and the backfield fast, which doesn't foretell anything particularly good for Holy Cross. Many eyes will be turned on the Pennsylvania university team, which plays Its first game under guidance of "Pop" Helsman, former coach of Geor gia Tech. Penn plays Delaware at Philadelphia. No Conference games were scheduled In the "big ttn." CALIFORNIA BEARS CLASH WITH OLYMPIC ELEVEN San Francisco. Sept. 25. (U. P.)

At California field, Berkeley, the University of California' was scheduled to go up against the Olympic club of San Francisco for it Initial game. At Reno - the University of Nevada and the California Farm school team from Davis will play. The .third game was scheduled for Oakland, where St Marys college will meet the Mare island navy yard. The U. of C.-Olymplc club contest drew the most interest, aa it will give the first change to Bee just what the California team, which Is expected to figure heavily In the season's play on the coast, looks like. It will be another week before Ore gon, Washington and Southern Cali fornia teams get started. j)Iaii o' War to Meet Sir Barton in Title Race on OStober 12 Havre De Grace, Md., Sept. 15.-Man o' War and Sir Barton, two of the great eat race horses In history, will meet In a match race In Canada on October 12 to decide the equine championship of America. The distance will be a mile and a quarter. The stake for the race will be the largest ever given In. America, a Ca nadian promoter having offered a purse Of $75,000 and $5000 gold cup. It was expected that the race would be a three-cornered afcfalr with Bxterm Inator as ths other contestant, as had at first been proposed. Willis Sharp Kil mer, the Blnghampton sportsman, owner of Exterminator, wanted the race to be a mile and a half or more and refused to let his horse run in the shorter dis tance. Samuel D. Riddle, owner of Man ' War, and J. K. Cross, owner of Sir Barton, came to an agreement on the terms of the race lYIday. The match will be run over the Kenilworth race track at Windsor, Ont.

Benny Leonard, lightweight champion,, will risk his title at East Chicago late this afternoon when he meets Pal Moran the New Orleans lightweight in av 10-round bout Leonard, whfnas been training here for the past week, is reported to be In excellent condition" and is looked upon as an easy winner. Moran's recent victory over Charlie "Wyilte. the Chicago lightweight, has caused many fana to have a high re gard for his ability, however, and hia backers predict that he will give the monarch of lightweights a very busy afternoon.

Norman. ; who formerly competed for tha Multnomah Amateur Athletic club, but now wears the Illinois Athletic club colors of Chicago, represented the United Statea in tha Olympic games at Antwerp, Belgium, last month, and be arrived In New York- late Wednesday night.

He broke several world's records to the games. , . 1 Indictments Are Expected in Scandal t at at at at at at st at at at at Former Sport Favorites Involved CHICAGO, Sept. 25. (I. N. S.) Verifi cation of disclosures naming Abe At tell, former featherweight champion, and a number of New York gamblers In con nection with tha $100,000 bribe with which tha 1919 baseball series la alleged to have been fixed In' favor of Cincinnati waa received today from Charlea A..Com!s- pkey, owner of the White Sox. Comiskey admitted that In his Investi gations after the series last fall he had received reports similar in every detail to those now before the grand jury. He refused to make a detailed statement re garding them, however, until the grand jury completes Its Inveatlgatlon. Hot 'denials of "Rube" Bentoa's story charging corruption of baseball player by gambler lntereated In the "fixing" of games came today from several players mentioned. PLATERS SEXY CHABGE Heinle Zimmerman, former Giants' third baseman, observed in plain terms, in a telegram received here from New York, that "Benlon is a liar." Eddie Cl cotte, the White Sox twirling star, de clared Benton is falsifying. "If Rube Benton says I called him a poor fish for failing to take money to throw a game in Chicago, as Is alleged, he is a liar," Zimmerman's telegram eaid. "I wasn't even In. Chicago on the day Benton refers to." "If Benton says that I know the name of the Pittsburg gambler who bribed th White Sox, he is telling a falsehood, and I'll tell him that the first time we meet." Clcotte asserted. "I never bet on a base ball game, and I think this talk of a scandal is idle gossip." Phillip llahn of Cincinnati, whom Ben ton alleged waa the man who had told him the last world'a aeries was "nbt on the square," and of the alleged $100,000 bribe of five White Sox players, denied he had made the statements, and offered $5000 to charity if anyone could prove he was mixed up in the baseball scandal. "FIXER" 18 KJT0W3T ' The -name of the alleged "fixer" of the 1919 world'a series is known to the Cook county special grand jury and the "in side" story of the plot to "throw" the series has been revealed. Indictment of the "fixer," several gamblers and a num ber of Jsaseball players probably will be voted, according to information from an 35 AH " 5TANDINGJ Pacific Coast League W U Pctj W. L.

N A A NATIONAL BANK Member Federal Reserve System - Third at Stark Streets PORTLAND , OREGON authoritative source. The investigation however, is marking time until next Tuesday, when it will be resumed with a number of. well known baseball men sub penaed to appear. Admissions made by H. H. Brlgham, foreman of the grand Jury, reveal that the attention of the Jury has been direct ed to the name of Arnold Roth stein, a well -known New Yorker, who owns a controlling interest in the Havre De Grace racetrack; Abe AttelU former featherweight boxing champion ; "Bill" Burns, former White Sox and Cincin nati pitcher, and Hal Chase, former flrat baseman for the Yankees, White Sox. Cincinnati and New York Glaats; "Nicky" Arnsteln and Max Blumenthal are mentioned aa having profited by the operatlona of the Ileged "ring." 80X MEJt GET II Met The story of the plot as revealed here from supposedly authentic sources is that Chaae approached Abe Attell, asking him If ha could fix anyon who would pay $100,000 to have the series "fixed." At tell is aald to have approached Roth stein, who declined, according to reports, to consider the proposition.' Attell is al leged, however, to have reported to Chase that the deal had been made. The members of the White Sox who were Involved were to be paid $15,000 after the flfst game was lost and the bal ance in regular installments until the series ended. Attell is said to have obtained backing for his scheme bynteresting a number of well jknown Eastern gamblers, who came to Chicago before the world'a aeries, established betting headquarters and won heavily by taking all the Chi cago money that waa offeree)- on the White Sox. WILL SURPRISE FA5D0M Foreman Brigham refused to discuss in detail the Information the grand jury hafe obtained. He said, however, that "several ballplayer face Indictment on a charge of conspiracy to defraud." "I will say this much," Brigham aald, "Chicago and the baseball world will be amased at the facts we have uncovered in connection with crooked gambling on baseball. I think the first bomb will be fired next week." Many more subpe naes, Brigham said, are going out next week, and "Rube" Benton, TCew York Glanta' pitcher, probably will be recalled. Details of -Second Battle Given Out By Actor Lackaye New York, Sept. 25. The fine par ticles of rumor which have been float ing upand down Broadway concerning a second McGraw skirmish settled down Friday and It became known that Wil ton Lackaye, the actor, is the most re cent victim of McGrawian rage. Lackaye and McGraw were chatting amicably in the latter'a apartment when destiny steered the subject of the Lambs into the conversation. Lackaye might have with equal safety snapped a red blanket at a bull. "McGraw put up his right hsnd as If to shake hands with me," related Lack aye, "but. suddenly drew back his left arm and smashed me in the jaw. I crumpled up on a sofa by my- side and my right ankle twisted under me. I got up then and aimed a few wallops at McGraw on my own account The fig-ht was stopped by some persons in the room." McGraw, according to the actor. Is grumpy and out of sorts as a result of what he considers .the wholesale be trayal of him by his friends.
