Judge McCredie Intimates That
Only Nine or Ten of Present

By Georgo Bert
MANAGER WALTER M'CREDIE
Of the Portland Beaver will
be confronted with a task of re
building hia entire
quad for the 121

the early part
of next imonth to
attend, the annual
meeting of the na
tlonal association,
and. incidentally,
talk trade with
i SHher minor league
nagnates. Mac win
also visit Frank Nevin. owner Of r
the Detroit Tigers.
It is true that the working agreement
between the Portland Beavers and the
Detroit Tiger during the 1920 season
via not satisfactory to either end of the
dial. The Detroit Tiger did the beet
they could to help the McCredie. but
on account of the shortage of material
In the American and National leagues
the major managers did not want to
allow any player, who was a bit promis
ing, to get away. McCredie could not
help Navin to any great extent.
TO RETAIN FEW
Navin. it is said, is a little bit peeved
at an article which appeared in the St
Louie baseball paper, but It 1 expected
that this will be ironed out when iic
Credle and the Tiger boss get together.
Of the player who will finish the
acason with Portland today and who
will likely be retained as a nucleus for
the 1921 squad are: Delmar Baker and
' Art Koehler, catchers; Sam Ross, Har
vey Sutherland, Rudy Kalllo and Syl
vester Johnson, pitchers; George Wla
tefzll and Wes Klngdan, Inflelders, and
Dick Cox and Art Bourg. outfielders.
George Maisel. according to Judge
McCredie. Is making an effort to dis
pose of hi services to the major leagues.
Whether the Beavers will accept cash
or a trade for Maisel remain with Man
ager Mac. Paddy Siglin and Harold
Poison will likely be sold or traded.
There are a couple of club in the Ceaet
league who are willing to purchase Sig
lin. but Mac does not Intend to let
Paddy go. unless he can benefit his club.
"Biff" Schaller will retire at the close
of this season. Lew Illue will report
to Detroit for a spring trial and there
is little likelihood of his getting away
from the majors without several club
Hiving him the "double-O." The New
York Giants and Chicago Nationals, it
is expected, would both claim Blue un
der the waiver rule.
Spranger lacka" the hitting ability to
stick in the Coast league, although In
a Class A circuit he would make a
- dandy player.
Art Bourg, the Portland boy, who
played right field during the last two
v. feks, is being mentioned as Blue's
successor. Bourg is a fast runner, be
ing able lo circle the bases In 14 sec
' onds, and Is a fairly good hitter.
NEED PITCHERS
What the Beavers need most of all
Ih a couple of cleanup hitters for the
outfield, 4 hard-hitting second baseman
and about three more good twirlers. It
1 going to be a tough job to find two
pood hitting outfielder and some strong
pitchers..
Judge McCredie intimated that Port
land might make an effort to purchase
Kllison from the Detroit Tigers, but It
Ls not likely that the former St. Paul
player will be waived out of the league.
Refusal of several clubs to waive on
liim last spring resulted In Detroit keep
Inn him on its payroll.
Kingdon. although out of the 1920 sea
son a considerable part of the time, is
expected to step into the shortstop posi
tion next miring and play sensational
ball. He has not yet attained hi
growth, but by next spring should be
Roing at top speed if he is ever going
to develop into the phenom that he was
expected to be when he broke in with
the Beavers in the fall of 1919.
MANY YOUNSTERS SIGNED
The Beavers were weak in pitching
end slugging this past season. If Man
ager McCredie had been able to land
a couple of good hnrlers and a heavy
hitting outfielder at the start of the
season the Mackmen wowld have fin
ished up higher in the race. Injuries
handicapped the Mackmen to a great
extent. .
Judge McCredie hope to put Portland
back on the baseball map next season,
despite the fact that It Is going to be
more difficult to get players out of the
major as the result of the deaup made
by the grand jury Investigations In
Chicago.
A number of promising younr player
have been signed already, but it is not
known how many will be taken south
next spring -until a few weeks before the
tickets are purchased.

away for next season s consumption on
the golf links, foremost of all, perhaps,
being a visit for the second time of a j
team made up of the present and past
golfing stars of the Oxford and Cam
bridge society. A cable received a few
days ago by the officials of the United
States Oolf association confirmed this
news. If all goes well there will be in
the golfing party ten or a dozen, which
no doubt will have as prominent mem
bers three players who took part in our
qualifying round for the British ama
teur title, the ErlUsh champion, Cyril
Tolley : Roger Wethered and Lord
Charles Hope. To this group can be
added such golfers as Major Gllles. Ber
nard Darwin, R. Montmorency and a
score of fine players of more recent
date. f
No doubt there will be touring parties
staged with the different state and dis
trict associations putting in the field the
best ten or a dozen players who can be
mustered, and if the dates are well ar
ranged a grand national team, opposing
after the manner of the Canadian in
ternational event. Only conjectures, of
course, but founded partly upon the
methods of procedure on the occasion
many years ago of their first visit to
these shores.
Moreover, it is practically a certainty
that a representative team ,wlll be on
hand from America at the time of the
next British amateur championship.
Americans hoped more than they ex
pected that they would be favored by a
visit from the British stars in a body,
especially the finest In Britain, and it
can be said here and now that events
are shaping themselves so at least 10
of the golfers who would have a fighting
chance for the title will be sent on the
way to England and Scotland next May.

Two Athletic Freaks Grab Honors
Seventh Annual
By Jack Veloek
TVTEW YORK. Oct 16. (I. N. S.) The
J. seventh Olympiad brought two
athletic "freaks" to the surface.
One is Guillemot, the French distance
runner, the other Frlgerlo, the Italian
ped.
Of the two. Guillemot was perhaps
the object of the most attention because
of the ease and grave of hia style of
running and because of his build.
The Frenchman I a little fellow, is
well knit together and has abnormally
long tegs for his type. He is barrel
chested and has a very abort neck. He
tuna with a freedom and grace that are
as natural to him as the peculiar loping
trot 1 to the timber wolf.
HAS PECULIAR STYLE
The peculiar feature about Guillemot's
running Me in the fact that he runs
with his head thrust forward and takes
a stride that is altogether out of pro
portion to his height, In winning the
060-metrs run he simply ran away from
his field. In the 10,000-metre final he
was second to Nurml, the sturdy Finn,
but only because ha had burned himself
out In the qualifying event
He gave Nurml one of the most dogged
race ever witnessed on any track in
the 10,000-metre final, keeping at the
Flna's elbow almost all' the way and
Coast Club
Owners Will
Gather Soon
Nportant Questions Will Come
Up for Consideration; Bees
Will Need New Field Leader.
"YHEN the Pacific Coast league
magnates assemble at San Fran
cisco October 25 some mighty Im
portant legislation dealing with the
game on the coast will come up for
consideration.
The first thing the directors will dis
cuss will be the gambling situation in
the Coast league circles. Every possible
measure to prevent the Juggling of
score and the throwing of games will
be taken.
WANT DRAFT RESTORED
Absolution asking the National Asso
ciation of Minor Baseball Leagues, which
meets In Kansas City, November 9. to
restore the old drafting system, will be In
order, according to Judge McCredie. The
Beaver magnate had his eyes on a couple
of Class A players this season that he
would have drafted under the old rules,
but did not ee his way clear to pay
$3000 for them under the present system.
The present drafting system is unfair
to both the players and the club owners
in Judge. McCredie's mind. Under the
old system, the club, with very little ex
pense, could draft players and If they
failed to make good they did not suf
fer any great financial loss.
MAY BAN SALES
The selling of holdout players of one
cl'ih to another .In the Coast circuit will
likely be tabooed at the meeting. There
were several instances last spring where
players refused to report and were sold
to other Coast clubs.
The playing schedule for 1921 will
likely be given some consideration.
Whether the length of the season will
be shortened or the last couple of weeks
of baseball In Portland and Seattle will
be transferred to the southland Is not
known. Judge McCredie has an idea
that San Diero would support a club I
during the last couple of week of the
season. This would solve the weather
problem in the Northwest.

In that race. Xurmi was te one runner

Many of the experts who studied
Guillemot's style are of the opinion that
he will burn himself out in a compara
tively short time unless he specialises
at one distance. In the Olympics he was
in the 6000 and 10. 000-metre races and
the Marathon. In the latter event h

Aggies Fail
To Score on
Club Squad
Multnomah Eleven Plays Scoreless
Tie With Rutherford Team;
Rain Spoils Contest.
O'
KKGON AGRICULTURAL, COL
LEGE. Corvallis. Oct. 16. When
an attempted place kick at the close
of the fourth quarter failed, the Ag
gies lost their only chance at a score
against the Multnomah Athletic club
today, and the game went to a score-
ieSs tie.
The Aggies' first game of the season
was piayea in a sea. ui muuuy uuei
and in a driving rain. Fumbles were fre-
quent and the game early developed
into an exchange of punts with the ad
vantage considerably on the side of
little "Hughie" McKenna.
As a real indication of the strength
of the team the game was a disap
pointment. Fumbles at critical points
made yardage uncertain. Substitutions
were frequent, almost the entire squad
of both teams getting a chance during
the game. ,
The Aggie line developed unusual
strength and R. E. Rutherford expressed
himself as satisfied with the showing.
George Powell, star fullback, was in the
game for but two minutes when there
seemed a chance to score at the close
of the first half, but fumbles prevented
the score. .
Star plays were absent though Rose.
Summers and Harold McKenna won
applause for brilliant interceptions of
forward passes. At the beginning of
the second half a forward pass from
Hughie McKenna to Rose netted 30
yards. The game ended with the ball
In the, possession of Multnomah on tneir

World's Champion
Man o' War Mav Run
t- . u
m Ascot uup itace
New York, Oct. 16. Man o' War, the
greatest horse of the century, will prob
ably run in England. This wonderful
piece of horse flesh may carry the Glen
Riddle colors in the Ascot gold cup. This
is a race over the regular cup route,
two miles and a quarter, and the winner
must be a real thoroughbred to stand
the gaff.
The Idea of sending (Man o' War
abroad was discussed by Sam Riddle
and a party that witnessed the triumph
of the great horse at Windsor last week.
All but Riddle voted to send Man o'
War across the sea. He capitulated and
then put the proposition up to Trainer
Feustel. The latter agreed to abide by
the final verdict, so it looks now as if
the wonder horse will seek new fields
to display his marvelous speed and
energy.
The Ascot cup is run In July, so Man
o War would not have to leave here
for several months.

Althoifgh Carpentier Beat "Bat"
QUESTION IS
Can the French
. By Westbrook Pegler
United News Staff Correspondant.
NEW YORK. Oct 16, Battling Levin
sky was such a wobbly setUD for
George Carpentier that the fight fans
in the big' town are still matching pen
nies for an answer to the question : "Can
Carpentier fight; and, if so, how much?"
Georges wheezed into New York from I
his training quarters at'Summitt N. J
the morning after the fight, with a cold
in his turgid chest and a prodigous wad
In his jeans, being acquisitions of that
busy quarter of an hour in the cool of
the evening at the Jersey City ball park
in which he knocked Levlnsky for a
home run with the bases full. He swelled
around the Claridge' lobby for awhile
with Francois De scamps, his manager,
and then drifted upstairs to knead his
bosom with a lotion of turpentine to cure
the cold.
Descamps had no end of a mad on be
cause people weren't giving his boy
credit for a tremendous feat of fisticuffs
in beating the patriarchal Bat.
IF HE MISSED
All the papers here commented on the
fact that Carpentier fought with his left
arm held low and his left jaw wide open
to any stray boxing gloves that might
have been flying about In the chill night
air. For a fact Carpentiers jaw had a
sign on It "hit roe,'' all through that
Tight, and the fact that he didn't get hit
was more to Levtnsky's discredit than
Carpentier' credit
Robert Ed gren, writing In the Evening
World, implies that if Carpentier ever
missed ''a swing at Jack Dempsey as he
missed swing at Levlnsky. Dempsey
would leap Into the opening and spin him
half way back to France with one punch.
Carpentier certainly lived up to hia 24-
aheetlng as a pretty boxer and a relent
less attacker; but any fighter of any
class at all would have whaled Levlnsky
as he showed In that battle. The Battler
looked cheap as an order of beans. He
was awkward, floundering whenever he
missed One of his timid leads. .

Tex R i c kard Endeavoring to
Bring Title Holders Into Ac
tion; Big Purses Offered.
By Henry L. Farrell
TVTEW YORK. Oct 16 U. P.) The
11 rleht of Pete Herman. Johnny Kll
bane. Benny Leonard and Johnny Wilson
to their championship crown may be
disputed, but Tex Rlckard, New York
promoter. Is willing to concede them all
as the best champions the world has
ever seen at "ducking bout"
Rlckard. who, as manager of Madison
Square garden, has become the foremost
of American promoters, has found It al
most impossible to Induce any of the
champions outside of Jack Dempsey. the
heavyweight king, to get in the ring for
a decision bout.
"We expected to have some real fights
In New York under the new boxing bill
but the champions have suddenly become
deaf, he said.,
IGNORES LETTERS
I have written numerous letters to
Johnny Kilbane and he ha Ignored
them. I even went so far as to let him
pick- hi own opponent. I have tried to
get in touch personally with Johnny
Wilson and ha? sent representatives to
him. only to have them told that he Is
not ready to talk business. I had Benny
Leonard and Eddie Fitssimmons
matched and the bout was called off.
Pete Herman has been very slow In
agreeing to meet the winner or the eiim
(nation series that is being conducted
among the bantams."
Rlckard. however, plan to force them
into the ring. He has two plan in mind
one through the provision of the
Walker bill and the other by taking
the radical stand that they are no longer
champions and offering a club belt of
his own to the 'winner of an elimination
series among the contenders.
RCLES ARE PLAIN
The Walker bill Is very cl.ar on this
subject.
"Any boxer winning a championship
under the international rules must de
fend hia title In a bona fide bout to a i
decision against the best available pon- j
tender within a period of six month l
from the time of winning hia title and
thereafter every six month if a Quali
fied challenger appears, unless he pre
vented by circumstances beyond his con-
trol, in which case the time may be :
extended by the board of boxing con-
trol," the section reads.
Rlckard has already offered a belt to
the winner of the return engagement be
tween Jack Sharkey and Joe Lynch, who
fought a furious 15-round draw recently,
and are matched to meet again on No
vember & In Madison Square garden.
Rlckard also promises to make some
interesting disclosures about the weight
of several champions who are In a class
heavier than their title.
While some excellent bouts have been
staged under the New York laws and
while there is little doubt that the future
will see many just as good, it is a fact
that the champions will have to be
coaxed a gTcat deal to step into a ring
with their crown at stake on a decision
since they can g-o across the river In
New Jersey and fight a 12 -round no
decision fight and get almost as much
money.

Eugene as an attraction of junior week
end next spring, according to Trainer
"Bill" Hayward. A Pacific coast .con
ference meet has never been held here,
and It is the opinion of Hayward that
Oregon has a strong chance of getting
the event staged In Eugene.
One reason that Oregon has not bid
for the meet heretofore Is on account
of the poor track facilities here for
handling such a meet Work will be
.commenced soon o the new track, which
will be laid out according to track reg
ulations and will encircle Hayward field.
The track will be a quarter mile oval
with a 220 yard straightaway and will
be strictly modern in every sense.
Although the conference official do
not meet until December, the movement
to have the meet at Eugene is already
getting under way and it is planned
to have a first class proposition to
offer to the officials at their next gath
ering. Crack Really Fight?
fever, due, no doubt to the reputation
as a killer that had been built up around
the Frenchman. In the end Carpentier
savagely brushed aside Bat's extended
left arm, which was the American's. only
defense. Ignored Bat's feeble right cross
and chopped him repeatedly on the Jaw

Ixevinsky didn't give Him a fhrht. so

more about the Frenchman'! real abll-
ities than it did before.
, To all this Deecamps takes exnloaive
exception.
"Georges, he do not have to be on
guard agalnat Levlnsky," the keen-eyed
manager sputtered. "Against Dempsey
he fight a different way. One time ha
ask Levlnsky to heet me' because he
know Levinaky cannot hurt him. But
he will not let Dempsey heet heem.' He
will knock out Dempsey in four rounds."
Descamps received an offer from Tom
Andrews of Milwaukee to fight Harry
Greb out there, but he didn't think much
of Greb; a an opponent so he turned
down the match. . He also heard rash
Ltalk on behalf of Mike O'Dowd and Ted
Kid" Lewis and offered to have Georges
knock them out In the same ring any
morning between and 9 :15 of the clock.
MOYIES AGAIX, THEN
Carpentier Is going to do another mo
tion picture in New York, and will re
main here for about two months alto
gether. His contract with Charles B.
Cochran- of London binding him not to
fight Dempsey except under Cochran'a
auspice expires in the latter part of De
cember, after which he will be free to
aign for the Dempsey battle under Amer
ican handling.
But Descamps wants half of the gats
money, and say a he will not let the lad
step into the ring with Dempsey for
cent less.
"No eeexty-forty,' he protested. "We
must have feefty-feefty or no fight Car
pen tier la the attraction. Who ta Demp

A press campaign by Paris sporting
papers is being waged to prove the
moving about of the Olympic games
from city to city and from country to
country every four years Is all wrong.
If the present system of allotting the I
Olympic game to cities and not. to
countries Is maintained, every capital
of the United States has a right to have
its Otympic games as wall as Antwerp,
the newspapers argue.'
The question of awarding: of the 1914
Olympic games should have been .set
tled in Antwerp, but owing to the large
number of cities claiming the honor. It
was decided to delay the solution of the
problem until the Lausanne congress in
June, 1921.
It is safe to say . that the proposed

of the International Olympic committee.
