Boston "Tar Baby7' Given a Drubbing by
Langford, in
Poor Shape,
Loses Bout

TJ70BBLINQ around the ring like a
i" duck and punching" with Inaccur
.acjr and poor time, except In clinches,
Sam Langford, once the moat (eared
heavyweight In the world, lost a 10
round decision to Lea Anderson, a fel
low countryman of San Francisco, Wed
nesday night before a capacity house in
the Heille- theatre.
The Lang-ford that squared off with
Anderson was not the same one who
put "Tiny" Herman away In seven
rounds two weeks aj?o. He was not In
condition to put up the same klndof a
battle. His judgment of distance was
poor and his famous left hook appeared
to (lance off Anderson's jaw.
DESERVE! CBKD1T
This is not said to discredit Ander
son's victory. Outweighed by at least
29 pounds, Anderson, who claims to be
17 years old, put up a great battle. His
footwork and varied attack was all
that could be asked of a light heavy
weight against a heavyweight. He
pulled rope tricks against Langford re
peatedly, but If Langford was in shape
to mix In his old time form this style of
attack would not have been successful.
In the writer's opinion, Langford
could beat' Anderson easily If he were
In condition to fight. Anderson owes
his victory to his ability to keep his
head. Once or twice when Langford did
J and solid punches Anderson showed a
tendency to lose his head, but warn
ings from his corner straightened him
up.
CUT BOTHERS AIM
Langford was bothered during the last
three rounds with a badly out left eye.
The cut was opened in the seventh
round with a terrific right cross. -
Anderson boxed in great style In the
first round. Ho hit Sam often, using a
left to the stomach and face and shoot
ing In a right cross occasionally. It
Mas Anderson's round by a big margin.
Lantfford rocked Anderson with a left
hook to the jaw In the second round.
This punch took the pep out of Ander
son for a minute, but he came back with
a hard right swing and Langford re
taliated with three rights to the face.
Langford played a tattoo on Anderson's
Stomach as the round ended.
: Anderson rallied In the third and
landed often with both hands. Battling
Off the ropes. Lee landed hard lefts and
right and his fleetness of foot enabled
him to avoid being. hit.
MAKES A SPURT
Langford started to work on Ander
son's mld-sction In the clinches In the
fdurth, but could not reach him, Ander
son standing off and boxing. Anderson
landed hard left and right swings and
put over a left to the Jaw at the bell.
The round was Anderson's but in the
ttext Langford began doing a little forc
ing and had a margin as the bell rang.
1 landed pome pretty hard punches on
-Anderson's body
. In the Hixth and seventh rounds both
were landing a number of punches. In
the eighth Anderson oaiiKht Sam with a
terrific right cross that opened a cut
' ver the left eye. He followed this up
with several lefts to the face from long
range and not until the middle of the
round did Langford innd. TIp did plant
St Stiff left hook on Anderson's jaw.
)LAjroFOBU ;ro;gy
r Anderson appeared to be tiring, but
- feept on outpointing Sam as the bout
ti eared Its end. Langford appeared
froggy as he went to his corner at the
od of the ninth round. He had been
punished badly In this round, Anderson
hitting with everything he possessed. In
the tenth Langford opened with a left
hook to the stomach and repeated with
one to the Jaw, but Anderson was con
lent to stand off and box him and had
the last round easily. Langford knew
that he was beaten when the final bell
-ang.
' Weldon vVing was presented with a
draw by Referee Francis in his eight
round mix with Al Grunan of I.ox An
geles. It was the second gift that Wing
had been presented with this season,
and the fans are beginning to wonder
what's what. Crunan shaded Wing In
the first round and also in the final
- canto. It is true that Wing did the
leading. That Is his style of battling,
but every time that he did he ran Into a
stiff counter punch.
BLUE EAST WIXRER -
When Baby Blue was awarded the de
cision over Allle Taylor the fans howjed
their disapproval, but if ever a boxer
was beaten it was Taylor. Blue missed
many puncheH in the early rounds, but
Inflicted great punishment. Taylor was
up against a handicap In weight and
; experience.
Kddle Oorman. a greatly improved
battler, was handing; George Brandon a
terrific lacing when Referee Francis
stopped the bout in the fifth round.
Brandon's grit was all that saved him.
He took everything Gorman had to offer
ancl came back for more.
, One punch ended the curtain raiser.
George Ragles putting "Sper" Wood
away in lens than 20 seconds.
The card pleased the fans.

Borton Says
A Bribe Was
Offered Bee
LOS AVGELES. Cal.. Oct. 21. (U. P.)
Following what was declared to
have been substantiation of charges that
Salt Lake players were paid for "throw
ing games to the Vernon club last year,
through testimony of Ilarl Maggert, dis
charged outfielder of the Salt Lake
team, the county grand jury will re
sume its investigation of the Coast
league baseball scandal Monday.
Maggert'a testimony yesterday, was
said to have supported charges of
"Babe" Borton that he had paid Mag
gert several hundred dollars about two
weeks before the end of last year's sea
son. It was this alleged crooked base
ball which allowed Vernon to win the
pennant, Borton charged.
Maggert today denied that he had any
knowledge that the money he received
might have come from so-called "sure
Jhlng gamblers." It was part of a "slush
und" raised by Vernon players, he be
lieved. Other witnesses, who appeared
Wednesday, were Chester Chadbourne,
Vernon outfielder ; Jack Cook of the Salt
Lake club, Byron Houck, Vernon pitcher,
and Kd O'Malley, L9S Angeles baseball
writer. Al Devormer, Vernon catcher.
who has been called home on account
of lllnecs, related , his side of the story
to a stenographer.
William Rumler, former Salt Lake out
fielder, will bo called within a few days,
Stafford said.
That indictments against "sure thing"
gamblers will be returned by the grand
Jury seemed certain today, although
Stafford refused to make predictions.
Whether ball players alleged to have
been involved In dealings with gamblers
will be Indicted seemed an open question.
The charges of an alleged "slush
fund" made by "Babe" Borton have not
Vet been substantiated by other wit
nesses before the grand jury, it was
learned.
"Babe" Borton has made public a
statement through Griffith Jones, his
attorney, in which he admitted the truth
of an allegation that he had attempted
to lrlt? former Catcher Spencer of the
Salt Lake team In 1919, declaring, how
ever, that there' was a discrepancy In
the sum mentioned.
"I offered Spencer $500 and not $1700
as was reported. The $500 was offered
as a bribe to Spencer to throw the aeries
and was not offered in connection with
any gambling proposition," Borton
stated
McCarthy to Appear
San Francisco, Oct. 21. (I. N. S.)
When President William H. McCarthy
of the Pacific Coast Baseball league left
for Los Angeles last night to appear be
fore the grand jury there investigating
gambling, he will lay before It a letter
received from Mrs. Ed Spencer, wife
of the former Salt Lake catcher. "Tub"

that "Babe" Borton offered him a $1700
bribe. The letter was received by an
official of the San Francisco baseball
club. If is understood, and turned over
to McCarthy, who announced his inten
tion of placing it before the grand jury.

Two Stars to I
Be Marked in j
Big Contest
By Jack Veloek,

NEW YORK, Oct. 21 (I. N. 8.) Two
players who will make their initial
bows in "big league" football stadiums
next Saturday will be watched with un
usual Interest by close followers of the
game.
M'MILLAK A WOKDEB
One of these young: men is "Bo" Mc
Millan, captain and all-American quar
terback of the Center college football
eleven, who will lead his. team against
Harvard at Cambridge.
The other Is Carl Beck. West Vir
ginia's blonde tornado, whose playing
has featured every game the mountain
eers have played this season.
The wonderful all-round playing of
McMillan, which won him the 1919 all
American quarterback position, is too
well known for recounting here. Suffice
It to say that he is just as brilliant as
ever both at carrying the ball and run
ning bis team and that Harvard's play
ers will have their hands filled keeping
him away from their goal line!
Center's record so far this seaspn with
a total of 24S points scored in three
games, reflects McMillan's ability and
generalship and many football enthusi
asts from the South' will be in Boston
to watch their Idol play.
BECK IS BIG STAR
At New Haven, where the Mountain
eers and Bulldogs are slated to tangle,
young Carl Beck will be a marked man.
The blonde back of the Morgantown
eleven has made a reputation that has
preceded him and , the Yale players.
stinging under the memory of the de
feat handed them by Boston college.
will keep this young man in mind.
Beck, because of his reputation, may
not get the chance to shine for West
Virginia as he has previously done. He
is the player who made a 65-yard ran
against the Pittsburg Panthers earlier
in the season and tore off a 30-yard run
in the same game. If West Virginia
had more like him It would be a Moun
taineer football year.

STEONG OFFENSE
GIVES BENSON A
GEID VICTOKY
ONE of the best exhibitions of coordi
nation on the part of the first line
offense of a football team ever seen in
the Portland Interscholastic league was
presented by the Benson Tech eleven on
Multnomah field Wednesday afternoon.
The Mechanics won from James John
high 34 to 0.
Coach Philbrook had his line from end
to end working like Trojans and there
wasn't a weak spot, apparently, when it
came to charging and opening holes for
the fast backfield. The winners scored
all their points in the first three quar
ters. The work of Wagner and Ermler,
the James John ends, was the outstand
ing feature in the Saints' play. Time
after time the little fellows were down
under punts nailing the receiver in his
tracks and it was only after the inter
ference was able to dispose of the two
ends that Benson was able to gain from
10 to 15 yards on a return.
Cover and Maloney each scored touch
downs in the first period and Captain
Colt converted the goal kicks. Cover
again came through with six points in
the second stanza and Colt kicked goal,
making the total read 21 to at the end
of the half. Peters registered the first
score soon after the second half opened
and the final touchdown came when
Right End Peters picked up a fumble and
ran 40 yards to the goal line.

Minors Will
Support the j
Lasker Plan
By Henry L. FarreU
(Caked Prew Staff Correspondent.)
NEW YORK, Oct 21. (U P.) In the
harried dash for the support of the
minors, John A. Heydler and the 11 club
owners who follow him seem to have
won them over to their idea, of new
baseball.
At present only two courses are open
to Ban Johnson and his "faithful five."
They must either join the Heydler fac
tion before November 1 or start on a
quest of three new clubs to fill their
league. Without the support of the
minors this would be almost hopeless.
Three new clubs would require at the
very least 45 players and the five clubs
remaining with Johnson In the present
controversy are not sufficiently fortified
la power and numbers to divide their
strength.
WANT CLE ATT GAME
It therefore seems that the odds in a
fight to a decision will go upon the
teams that the minors fall in behind.
Two minor league heads have aligned
themselves with Heydler in his cam
paign for a change in baseball's govern
ment, in messages to the writer.
'The majority of the minors favor the
Lasker plan, with a few reservations.
. "I am strong for Comiskey and clean
baseball," J. W. Morris, president of the
Texas league, wired today.
"I do not believe the American
league should be disorganized or dis
rupted." wired William H. McCarthy,
That's why Spur Cigarettes have won. There
are plenty of cigarettes of merit, some claiming one
pleasing: feature, some, another. But there was room
at the top for a still betterjdgarette one that had
all the goodness of the others" and then9 some.
Spur's new blend of choicest Oriental and American tobaccos
gives greater richness, aroma and mllcjness than you thought a ciga
(rette could have. Spur's crimped, not pasted, seam makes a longer
'lasting cigarette. .
. If you're looking for, the highest possible "quality at the lowest
price that Spur.
Encouriter at Heilig
president of the Pacific coast league;
who ls fighting "crooked baseball" In
his own league. "But I do strongly ad
vocate get-together policy which will
eliminate the differences of the past and
produce a plan, whether it be the Lasker
or the present agreement changed, to
remedy whatever Ills that exist"
MAKT BACK MOVEMENT
"Concerted action will be taken by the
minors when the major league commit
tee, presents its plans at our annual
meeting in Kansas City November 9.
10 and 11." said J. II. FarreH. secretary
of the National association.
The National league chief has been
assured of support by other minor. league
heads, including Walter Rose. Florida
state league ; M. A. Cantillon, South Da
kota league ; Frank Mlley, Western Can
ada league ; J. V. Jamleson. Blue Ridge
league, and J. C Lechter, Western asso
ciation. Although Thomas Hlckey. president of
the American association, has not ex
pressed himself, his stand may bo In
fluenced by the following of his club
owners who have wired their endorse
ment to Heydler: William C. Smith, In
dianapolis; Otto Borchert, Milwaukee;
Roger Bresnahan. Toledo : George Muel
bach, Kansas City ; George K. Belden,
Minneapolis, and W. W. Knebelcamp,
Louisville.
Scores of messages have. tecn received
from others, large and small, among
the minors and amateurs.
