1U Portland Beavers May McCredie to Confer With Cub Leader ilT Ororm Brt MANAOKTt WALTFTt M'CPIK "1" depart, Tnesdgv nlrht or Wednesday Tnomlnr for Tx A"rfl tr a ronfer r nce with Jnhnny Kvera, field pilot of ' th Chlcaeo National. , McCredie In anxlou to discus dls With Ever before the Cuba go Into train ing? a week from Monday at Pak1n. Cat.. henoe his hurry to (jet away from the Rom Cltv. MAT ASK FOR FIELDER The Beavers have two players coming ' from the Cuba In exchange for George Irtatsfcl and have the promlae of addi tional men. It haa been hinted Mutt Pitchers "Speed" Martin and Abe Bailey, and Charley Deal, the veteran third base xnan, will be turned over to Portland. It Is doubtful If the. Cubs can obtain waivers on Deal, as he was the leading fielding third-sacker of the National leaguer last year. The Cuba have two other third-sackers, Kelleher of the Deo koines club, who can also play short, and .Warner, who was secured from the Kan - eas City club, and It is almost sure that the, Beavrra will land one of them. In view; of the fact that the Cubs have a big bunch of outfielders and the De troit club is loaded down with Infielders, It may be possible that McCredie will auk the Cubs to turn over an outfielder ho can hit the pill and look to the Ti gers to strengthen his Infield combina tion. McCredie. however, has made it plain that he would like to have Shorten, fine of the five Inflelders on 'the Detroit ros ter. Mac would alr-o like to land Sslt gunt, the Buffalo third baseman on the Detroit roster. , KLEPFER LANDS LA5E ITexy Bill Klepper of the Seattle base ball club sees the 1921 Coast league pen nant flying over the Rainier ball park, provided two other deals under consider ation by Manager Kenworthy are closed. Klepper was a Tortland visitor Friday afternoon. He did not come down to talk baseball, but to attend a conference with some wool magnates, but a long distance telephone call from Seattle made him forget all about wool. The Seattle boss talked to Secretary Itlvers of the Itainlers three times over the long distance telephone. After the third talk he announced the transfer of pitcher Siebold to Oakland for Billy Lane, the speedy Oak outfielder., Seattle has to part, with a little cash in addition "to Siebold. WAT CLOSE OTHERS TODAT ; The other deals whlcn Manager Ken . worthy has under consideration may be closed by noon Saturday. These two deals have a proviso that the players sign within 10 days attached-to them. 'Ued" Baldwin, Rainier, catcher, who was a holdout, nas inrormea iviepper that he is ready to sign his contract, but indications are that Baldwin will be traded, probably to the Vernon club. The Seattle boss, it is said, Is dicker ing for the Berviee of Justin Fitzgerald, San Francisco outfielder. GAMES ARE BILLED Frank Jesse, who will he the "father" of the Portland ball players at Santa Maria this spring, has informed Judge McCredie that he has outlined the fol lowing schedule for the camp season : March 17 Portland vb. Botteravia. March 20 Portland vs. Oil Fields. March Portland vs. Chicago Cubs. . March 2" Portland vs. picked team. April 3 Double-header with Santa Maria and Oil Field teams. Jessee had a game billed with the San ta I! aria team for March 13, but the Portland owner closed negotiations Frl day for the appearance of the Lincoln (Hants of New York for two games on March 12 and 13. The signing of the early games will force McCredie to hustle his players along If they hope to attain a victory over the colored stars, who are regarded as strong as some of the major league clubs.

Ask Chicago Cubs for Iloppe Would Defend His Title ? 9t ? at Willing to By Jack Veloek N ETW YORK. Feb. 2. L N. S.) "Kd- ourard Horemans can have a crack at the 18-2 billiard title any time he will put up a forfeit for a match under championship conditions Willie Hoppe, world's 18-2 lalkllne champion for the last 15 years, made this statement today in discussing tire, hitch in his proposed match with the Belgian player, which resulted in his taking down a forfeit of $2500. WANTS LOG MATCH "I'll play Horemans any time.' said Iloppe. "I won't say I will defeat him, for I never make predictions, but I am willing to meet him and will bet as much as he likes on the side. If he really wants to play, this ought to satisfy him." The rock on which negotiations for the match were wrecked Was the ques tion of points. Horemans insists on a match of 3000eto 5000 points, on the ground that a short match does not fur nish a fair test of skill. "A thousand points Is the recognized limit," Hoppe continued, "and It is just as fair to one as the other. For that matter I would be taking the worst of it In risking my title against a chance that Horemans might be favored by the element of luck.- I still favor a match of 1000 points, however, though would consent to play 2000 providing play Is moved to a brand new table at the con clusion of the first 1000 points. FAILS TO COVER FORFEIT "I hear Horemans has declared he WHEN it comes to basketball. Lincoln high. holds some kind of a "spell" over the representatives of the Wash ington high. The Colonials were figured on as easy winners over their old rivals in the 1920-21 battle, but the Railsplit ters upset the dope Friday afternoon by trimming the East Siders in their own gymnasium, 25 to 23. The Lincolnites led, 13 to 10, at the end of the first half and the score was tied five or six times in the last period. The winning basket was made by Flynn after a, beautiful pass from Johnny Faust, who, although apparently close '.enough to try to win the game himself, shot the oval to his teammate who was under the hoop. The team work of the winners was superb despite the fact that so many substitu tions have been sent In during previous games that it was impossible to get a working combination together until Fri day. Faust and Flynn were the out standing scoring stars for the winners, while Jcmny Haak and Myers played the best ball . for Washington. The lineups : Lincoln (25). Pne. Washington (23).

By defeating the Medford high schooi basketball team by a score of 28 to 11 at Medford, the Roseburg high school wins the right to represent Southern Oregon in the state interscholastie basketball tournament to be held in Salem, March 11. Roseburg defeated Medford In three out of four games. Roseburg's claim to the cham pionship of Southern Oregon has not been fully established, due to the fact that the local hoop artists were de feated twice in Ashland. The Ashland team will not play in Roseburg until after the Salem conference. Vancouver, Wash.; Feb. 26. Van couver high school will meet the Hoquiam basketball team tonight on the local floor.

Fenstermacher and eight of his Washington high basket ball players left Portland for Eugene this morning, where they will meet the Lniversity of Oregon freshmen tonight. Fortland fans are interested in the out come, inasmuch as the "Froeh" lost to Franklin high recently, and Washington is scheduled to battle Franklin next Fri day afternoon in a "championship" af fair. The North Pacific Dental college bas ket-shooters will have a strenuous time tonight against two strong quintets In tho Young Men's Christian Association gymnasium. The first setto will be against the" Pacific vniversity athletes. starting at 7 :45 o'clock, and the sec ond meeting will find the Multnomah Guard offering the opposition.

Charles Eyre, a high school athlete, ia dead from injuries received in an interciass basketball game played last week. His kneo was Injured and blood-poisoning set in with fatal results. The Multnomah Amateur Athletic club intermediates will meet to B'naii B"rith intermediates m the E'nai B'rita gym iiasium Monday night It will be the first of a three-game series to deter mine the 1920-21 city championship at I their weight- BASKETBALL Play Belgian Star can defeat me," Hoppe said. "Well, if he thinks so, he hasn't proved it to me. He failed to cover the forfeit I posted and did not even appear at the confer ence In Philadelphia. "Horemans is quoted by his manager to the effect that he 'doesn't wast the money and ia playing for the good of the game.' I'll say I am quite differ ent as far as the money Is concerned. Incidentally I have been told that Hore mans haa confided to -friends here that if he had a hundred thousand in his pocket he would not care anything .bout the world's championship. He doesn't stand much chance to get either under present conditions Why, who ever heard of a billiard player turning down a chance to play for a purse of $10,000? That 13 what Horemans has Just done." CHAMP 2fOT WORRIED Horemaiis concedes Hoppe's 18-1 championship, but disputes his right to the 18-2 championship on the ground that he has just a good right to it. The 18-1 game, incidentally, is passe now. Horemans based his claim on the ground he defeated Louis Cure last year. Cure is today an old man, and as far back as 1906, when Hoppe played and defeated him, he failed to make a cred itable showing against the best Ameri can players. Horemans' exhibitions here, in which he has made sensational runs, have not worried Hoppe In the least. "His exhibition work It? certainly -impressive," Hoppe said, "but making big runs in a match is somethfng else again." Frazee May Sell Team to Boston Fans (By L'nirersal 8errice) jVTEW YORK, Feb. 26. Harry Frazee, called "Baseball's Stormy Petrel," may quit the game within a short time. An offer of $1,000,000 cash for the Red Sox players franchise and real estate holdings, embracing Fenway park, was made to Frazee a short time ago. It came from a group of Boston sports men who are anxious to have the team locally owned. FAS AGAI2TST HIM Frazee rejected It and, athough he did not fix a price, it is said that he would listen attentively to any propo sition which -included such figures as l,250,00O. Frazee is in disfavor in Boston. The fans have never forgiven him for the sale of Babe Ruth and other stars. Many have boycotted him and the Sox under the Frazee ownership. Frazee has an tagonized newspapermen in the Hub city, and those who are not openly hostile are careful not to do anything that will help him. As a result Frazee probably would welcome a chance to get out of baseball especially in view of the fact that his 1921 team seems mediocre and doesn't look as if it will be more than a second division outfit. Last year, while the other seven American league clubs were playing to capacity at home, the Sox weren't drawing at all. And there is no prospect of a change in 1921. MADE SI05ET OS SALES Frazee declared at the time he pur chased the team that the "whole out' fit," which included real estate, cost him a little more than $1,000,000." Since assuming ownership Frazee has realized perhaps $250,000 through the sale of players. The Red Sqxowner and Ban Johnson have been at loggerheads ever since Frazee became a magnate. Johnson is said to be opposed to Frazee's entry in the American league. But Frazee by paying a ; record price for the Red Sox got in anyway. Frazee sold Carl Mays to the Tankees while Mays was on Johnson's suspended list and, therefore under league rules ineligible for sale or trade. Later, Frazee lined up with the New York owners, in a vain effort to oust Johnson from American league owner ship. The New York Americans may not open their grounds until 1923.

There Is little doubt that the National Boxing association, the goldlng body of the sport in 17 states, will close tbe doors to Johnson.
