MAKE PROMISES GOOI
When Dill Klepper acquired control of

his promise? We'll say so. and' what's

open for players to atrengthennho club.
To date. Klepper has landed 10 new
i players for the Portland club. Every

The 10 players landed are Parka. Mid

fans, and start claiming the pennant
before the season opens. Klepper Is
.doing everything within his power to go
out and get players who will put Fort

even other clubs In the pennant race
and all of them are seeking to strength
. en their line-ups.
What Klepper haa accomplished to
building up tha team to data Is won
Otrful. The only thing that rematns now
I tla the securing of another pitcher and
tha naming of a manager, and the sign

pected In getting the players signed. In
fac Turner will endeavor to get the sig
natures of some of the players before

Eastern papers, especially those In
Philadelphia, are claiming that Turner
wtji be manager of the Portland club.
It might com to pass that he will step

COMMISSION WI5S FEIEXDS
The Milwaukie commission, though
hundreds of fans were disappointed in
not having their stubs redeemed for Fri
day's bout, won hundreds of friends by
their desire to give the fistic lovers a
run for their coin. Over 300 counterfeit
tickets made their appearance at the
arena last Monday afternoon and some
of these were redeemed in the rush to
supply tickets to all fans.
With the exception of some scalping
by individuals, not one penny was taken
in by the Milwaukie commission Friday
night. The preliminaries put on by
Manager George Moore cost in the
neighborhood of J700. The expenses of
the show were paid by Moore and not
by the commission.
Moore made this expenditure to show
the fana that he was making an honest
endeavor to give the lovers of the fistic
sport the best that he could possibly
obtain at the most reasonable prices.
The order of the huge crowd that wit
nessed the Wills-Tate contest was all
that could be expected, although several
mix-ups preceded the final closing of the
doors to the fana, The doors were not
closed until every corner of the spacious
arena was Jammed.
Fulton Will Have to
Prove Right to Bout
In seeking a return fight with Jack
Dempsey, Fred Fulton probably will
have to climb over- Bob Roper, the
soldier heavyweight or Bill Brennan if
he can do it some time this winter.
Roper is asking for trouble but Ful
ton has failed to notice him to date.
Promoters here show no eagerness to
put on Fulton with Dempsey until Fred
does some work with the other aspirants
to show how good or bad he is.
