Judg William Wa!l.- Mw-r,1i owner cf the Portland Baa vara for the past is years, and who will. Judging from the failure of prospective buyer to dir up the coin, retain the club next year. Is caattn a lonoinr va at viriia it with a view of flying the Beaver permanent home. KKTEBAL AVAILABLE "There are several aita iiki" declared the Judge, "w hlch will nrvM Just a good a ball park as the Vaughn irw arounas. ana are Just as aceea- 4 One of the tract Judge McCredie is looking over Is the Montgomery flats, below the Broadway bridge, with the "i"'n vi neing on ine otner aide or the river away from the business hub. Uls Is a very desirable tract There 1 another piece of ground on Belmont treet that McCredie has looked over, and thl one. In his opinion, would make an ideal home for the club. I There are- several other tract avail able, one being on Jefferson street. COM PATTY WA!TI ISTF.HE8T The lease on the Vaughn street ground expires at the end of this year, and while Judge McCredie has not taken up the subject of a renewal of the lease. It la known that he la not worrying a bit If th Portland Railway, Light A Power company refuses to rent it to him again. It la known that the railway company officials will ask a much bigger rental price for a.ny new lease and It may be that the figures will be beyond the reach of the magnates. The gTound question has been one of the . stumbling blocks to the sale of the club this year. None of the bidder seemed willing to Lake a chance on get ting a renewal of the lease. Along with the announcement that he was looking around for a new park. Judge McCredie stated that Walter Mc Credie would probably remain aa man eg"' This was affirmed In a way by Manager Walt, who declared the other day that he would probably remain with the Beavers. With the exception of Sammy Hale, none of the present corps of players has been sold. Hal has been recalled by the Detroit Americans. MAY HOLD PLAYERS It Is known that Joe Encla aonut nt the Washington Americans, likes the wcuona 01 iierm ryiette and Eddie llerr, It la believed haa recommended him to Detroit Herr Is also sweet on George Grantham, the Injured short atop. "There's no chance of any Portland player being traded or sold to the ma jors. Unless we know beforehand what plsyars we are going to get," said Mc Credie. "We were handicapped by the deals made last year and ara not eninir to take any chances of getting caught ahort this vnr V . It la likely that a flew bunch of new players, especially pitchers, will be as sembled for next year's team, along with one or two outfielders, who can hit consistently. SKAHOX TO END The Psclfic Coast league season will end this week with Los Angeles playing against the Beavers on the Vaughn street grounds.

In addition .1 to running the Shoots and kMninr tne traps in condi tion, which is more or less of a handicap la the shooting game, which demands concentration. HOLDS WORLD'S MARK a Ford has been In the trapshootlng game for 23 years, having started his career In Iowa under the schooling of three of the world's famous trapshots, Tom A. Marshall, Fred Gilbert and Wil liam Crosby. These three shooters have held titles tn various years and has also represented the United States in inter national competition. Ford was the first I amateur shooter In the world to smash 300 straight. Bet ting the mark in St. Louis in 1909. At Denver later in the same year he broke 342 straight He holds the world's record of 108 straight from the 21-yard line mark. Being the first shooter to break w siraigni rrom that yardage. CLtlB IS SUCCESSFUL In the 1909 shoot at St. Louis he es tablished a record of 506 out of 610 registered targets, a mark that has not yet been tied. His average for the last aix years on over 50,000 targets is .9580. Under the management of Ford, the Portland Gun club has been very suc cessful. Ford' latest triumph was his 100 straight In the Rose City century tour nament. Grand American Handicap Is Sought By Several Cities By Peter P. Carney Editor National Sports 8rnditte TfTHERE Will the Grand American Han dicap Trapshooting tournament be held In 192!? That question is uppermost In the minds of trapshooters at this writing. The blue ribbon classic of trapdom will not take place before the middle of August, yet during the shot In Chicago and slncfTiulte a number of organiza tions have been telling just how well they could handle the big shoot if they got It. SEVERAL IX FIELD Indianapolis would like to have it w are told, also Des Moines, and the Lincoln Park Qun club of Chicago would like to stag& it Then we hear again that Atlantic City would like to put it on and furthermore that- th Play ground of America would give $5000 towards the expenses of the shoot. Where the Grand American will be run 1 of Interest to all shooters. It is said that Western shooters will not come East, that Eastern shooters wlU not go West, and for that reason Chicago has gotten the shoot mora tlmea than any ether city. Chicago la possibly th most centrally located place for the shoot. WOCLD HELP 8POBT However, quite a number of shooters at Chicago seemed to think that if the Bhoot waa held In Denver or some far western point one year. In Chicago or vicinity the next, and New York or some Eastern city the next, that it would be the beat thing for th shooting game. This seems like a good suggestion. The taking of th ahoot to varloua sections would do much to build up th sport. Tennis grew but little while the cham pionships were being played at Newport, but since the titular events have been shifted around It has gotten to. become a mighty popular game. The golf cham pionship is held In a different city each ear. Tfce shooters argue that If switch. Ing theae championships around make for mors tennis player and golfers, switching the trapshooting- champion ships around will promote tnor trap shooting and bring out mere shooters. The field Is still epen. SO A5KUAL AFFAIR Soccer players will miss the annual American challenge cup competition an nually promoted by th American Foot bail association. It was ruled out of ex istence by the United State Football association, the governing body, at its recent annual meeting. It was estab lished in 18S5 and, except for a few Interruptions, was played ach season. The national cup games, promoted by th U. S. F. A. will be the only cup ties this year. It is open to eleven of the country. THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, to 5 (left), and Roy Bohler, former Wash succeeded R. L. Mathews as coach Plans are being laid for the staging of th third annual Pacific coast zone championship tournament on the Ever ding Park traps next July or August This Bhoot will undoubtedly be one of tne biggest ever held on the coast POBTLA3TD GETS BOOST I'd Banks, publicity director of the American. Trannhinfflf' ocaulaMnM l a recertt issue of the New York Tele-' gTaph says: "In the language used around the green cloth covered table by men fltrt Ing with red, white and blue (and oc casionally yellow) disks, that's a good pair to draw to the Portland Or.) Gun club and O. N. Ford, Its manager. The 1Z2 Pacific Coast sone handicap is to be held on the club's grounds, and even now Ford Is saytna; what he is going to do In the way of getting together an attendance that will break all records on the Pacific coast "For my part I think he'll do it be cause In trapshooting matters Ford gen erally says what he is going to do and then does It Not so many yearswago. at several tournaments, I have heard him say he was going to be high mam or that he'd not miss another target all day ; then he'd go out and make good. He certainly has a splendid outfit at the club with which to handle a crowd. From a bunch of photos wjiich he sent the A. T. A. to look at and pass along to Sam Foster for the Mason City mag nate to study for the benefit of the Cerro Grdo Gun club In particular and Mason City as a whole, one can easily grasp what a man's slse layout the ftlub has. "The clubhouse, fireproof throughout and attractive in appearance, shows the result of 110,000 well expended. The shooting grounds themselves, with ce ment firing posts, neatly kept lawns, pullers and scorers taken care of In well planned shelters where they are not bothered by bystanders, etc., also show where another $2000 was laid out to advantage. All -this has been accom plished so Quickly and so effectively that it looks like a' sure bet that there will bo nothing lacking to make the 1922 Paeific coast sone handicap all that Ford says it is going to be." Field Trials Club Preparing for '21 Coast Title Meet TPHE annual events of the Oregon Field X Trials club will be held over the Leb anon course October 3, 4, 6, and accord ing to announcements being sent out by W.

The combination hunting Star Portsiders Are Passing Out j Of Major Leagues THE left-handed pitcher, regarded aa the most important cog in a base ball machine, is disappearing. It Is unnecessary to use more than one hand to total the southpaws in the sport today, who are really great in their particular line. And some of them ere fading so rapidly that they may be out of the big leagues before another sea son rolls around. Sallee, once the greatest of portside flingers, is about through. He has pitched in only Indifferent fashion for the Gianta this year and It is a question as to whether he will be with the outfit in 1922. The same thing goes for Ben ton, another veteran, who is long be yond his prime. Jim Vaughn ia out of the game now, and Tyler, his old mate with the Cubs, wobbled bo badly that he was released unconditionally. "Duster" Malls flashed brilliantly for Cleveland at the end of 1920 but has been very erratic this year. Marquard Is still doing fair Work, but the "Rube" is well along in baseball years. - Cooper, the Pirate veteran, is still going good but he has lived a long time in the big leagues and is due to pass along very soon. Reuther is an in-and-out er this year and Mitchell is another who Is slipping speedily. Nehf Is still a great performer and is perhaps the best southpaw In the National league. Ranking next to him and the only man who seems close is Dick Kerr of the White Sox. If those two were eliminated, it would leave the big leagues without a left of worth who could be regarded aa a fixture for a few more years in the big time. Quarter Mile Race Is Hardest Track Event Nine out of 10 followers of track at. letlcs believe that the quarter mile is the hardest of all races. This feeling comes from the old days when it was no doubt true, but in the last 10 years such rapid strides have been maae in the longer races that if the question, were asked men who have run the quarter as well as longer races, the answers Would no doubt be different .ine quarter was a harder race for th majority of runners for one of the beat reasons ; it waa being run in those aays in just about as fast time as today, The Pittsburg National league team wm conclude it schedule with five sanies in ei. iouis.

Class of Champions Very Poor . 9 K Things Coming Easy for Boxers - By Tad NEW YORK. Sept 24. tl. N. S.) There never was 'a time in the whole history of boxing when the men of that profession were so bad as they are today. At present there are two really good champions Jack Dempsey. king of the heavies, and Benny Leonard, king of the 15-pound ers. The rest you can toss Into the ash can. There are other fairly good title hold era, but the writer can't class them with the champs ef other day a "CHEESE COMES HIGH And when one stops to think of the fortunes they get in purses the days. It almost knocks you silly. Think of a ham and egg fighter like Johnny Wilson getting $37,500 to box another ham and egg fighter. Bryan Downey. Wilson's end would be a fortune for the ordinary man. It la more than ha rnuM irn in a lifetime, yet the cheea champion slap his way through 12 rounds of boxing and picks up the change. Tex Rickard Isn't to blame. Tne sucker jjubllc la the cause of It. It's no wonder the fighters laugh. Think of the purses that eecondraters got at Madison Square Garden last winter. As long as the sucker public falls for the bunk, big purse will rule. There may be hard times all over America, but when you look over a fight crowd and think of wjiat they ny for seats you really can't believe that the wolf is meowing at any door.

If One of the trongest arguments for a rule to force boxereHo fight on a percentage basi Instead of a guarantee took place here Aiurust SI at the PhiUla ball park. The fan saw three bouts for noth ing, and Promoter Louis Malls lost sev eral thousand dollars because Willie Jackson and Johnny Dundee. New York lightweights, who were to meet for the eleventh time, couldn't draw a gale big enough to pay them $5000 apiece. MOXEY BEFUSDED Malls offered the managers of Jackaon and Dundee $2500 In cash and a per sonal check for the remainder. Dun dee's manager accepted, but "Doc" Barley, manager of Jackson, demanded caah or nothing. The banks were closed and Malls was out o' luck. He an nounced to the crowd that there would be no Jackson-Dundee fracas, and that their money would be refunded. Malls lost 14000 paid for the preliminaries. If Jackaon and Dundee bad fought on a percentage basis they both would have got about $2000 apiece. Director of Public Saf ty Cortelyou. who supervises boxing In this city.

"Boxers are worth no more than their drawing power. If boxing should be put on such a basis here, and should any fighter refuse to accept the money he drew on this basis, no matter how small an amount, be would never box In Philadelphia again."

Gruman to Remain as Referee WTUIK Portland boxing commission U X in no hurry to name a match naker to 'succeed Bobby Kvanr " de clared Dr. 11 C. Mc-Far'and. secretary of the body. Saturday. "We are weighing the qualification of tne various applicants and at the present time It ia hard to say who will be selected for the present. As soon aa Frank Lonerjan, the fifth member of the commission, returns to the city a meeting will be called and th position be awarded." On aocount of the fact that the com mission has had more trouble with ref erees than with matchmakers. It la likely that an effort will be made to have Ralph Gruman withdraw his ap plication for matchmaker and remain a referee. Gruman' services as the third man' In the ring have been very satisfactory and most all of his deci sions have met with favor. Among the other candidate who have tossed their hat Into the ring for the position are Captain Harry Hansen. Abe Matin, Ray Winter. Dr. Leslie Clough and M. a HI1L it Is said that "Moose" Taussig of San Francisco would accept the position, but it Is not likely that any outsider will be offered the position.
