"What about Jlra Thorpe?" jr These are only a few of the questiona that were bombarded at the writer upon his arrival from th Portland Braver training camp at Pasadena. Baseball 1 talk appeared to be rife on the streets nd the fans have a right to do bole lot of chatting, for ' It certainly appear as If the new owners of the loral club haw banded together an kg . r.rtrstlon of players who will be up In i tne 1S12 Coast league pennant race. kor5Di5U IT4TO HnAPK The team was juat beginning to round Into form when the writer departed. The tnfieldera were beginning to hop the ball s round In the morning practice session, '-ahlch followed the long batting sessions eacn morning. Jim Poole, the Beaver first sacker. and l the only holdover of last year's Infield, ' appears to have gained a lot of con fidence In his ability and It has been . predicted on all sides that the big fellow '', will have a wonderful season. Ken- . worthy, down to weight as the result of n ticing a heavy rubber coat In the morn n In ' practices, appears to be ready to siart. The new combination on the left side ' Of the diamond is going to be a winner. ' In the past several years, Portland has started with weak shortstops, but In MK'ann. "Duke" Kenworthy has a . etrndy player, who plays the ball In front of him all the time and Is Just M. a rubber ball bouncing around the e.K.rtfleld.

Nona a the other teams have added pitchers of the calibre, which they sold or traded at the close of last season. ' Middleton. Sutherland and Leverens are .. likely to be depended upon at the start ,; of the season, although Blemlller and j Freeman are wonderful prospects. Both have had considerable experience and ought to go with a hitting club like the ( Beavers behind them. Sam Ross Is rounding to In good form as Is Crump- ner. wno la working like a trojan. to vereom his only pitching fault. Crumn- ler has mors stuff than any southpaw In camp, but ha w ill have to correct his style In pitching before he will become real effective. This week will see the 'pitchers start to burn 'em across In batting practice. With Elliott In wonderful shape th catching department will be taken care , Of In good order. "Rip" King appears , to be overcoming his main batting fault ' and If he continues to Improve as he did during the fourth week of the camp he will be catching his share of games. King needs a lot of work and he's a will ing fellow. He Is out to show McCredi rhat ha can rut the mustard this sesaon. -Kllhullen. the new catcher. Is not a strong hitter, but Is a smart catcher. All In all. It looks like Portland Is go ing to stage a come-back In baseball this jrtar. 1 'BTLF.R KEF.

Coach Attacks New Football Rule Changes T TXIVKRSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, March rr.The nil abolishing th free kick for goal and substituting a play from the tin of scrimmage, on or back of the 5-yard line. Is not aa Important aa eastern sport writer think, according to Shy Huntington. Oregon's youthful mentor. ' The abolishment of the free' kick for real will probably result In the almost universal adoption of the plac kick after a touch down, says Huntington a he does not believe that a coach will un ork a good play to gain an extra point when the saving of that play may mean yardage for a touchdown on another play. , "The passing of the rule abolishing the free kick." said Huntington. 1s not a distinct advantage. It means that it will tak longer to get th ball into play again after the touchdown and that it win be harder for the coaches to develop the play. Furhter if It waa the purpose of the rules committee to eliminate the dangers of the game, then the committee has failed, for by allowing another scrimmage play it la evident that the dangers are increased by just that much." It will, however, in th opinion of th coach, prove more difficult to make the goal from placement than from the held ball which has been the case. With the lack of experienced kickers this will un doubtedly work a hardship on the varsity next fall as neither Hunk Latham nor Dutch Gram, wbo will probably be called upou to do the booting, are consistent place kickers. "Spike" Leslie, who picked for the Lemon-Ye! low last season. will graduate this spring. Several other changes in rules were passed by the meeting in New York Sat urday, prominent among which were the ones affecting shift plays aad clipping from behind. Huntington does not feel that there was a need for any changes In the rules regarding shift plays and clipping and in respect to this said: The pian to limit shift plays seems to eman ate from a group of the coaches from the large eastern institutions who dominated the meeting In New York and who have succeeded apparently In legislating a number of rules. The move to limit th number of shift plays is probably a move cn their nart to nrevent Notre Dame from using the 'large number of. bewild ering plays which have been in such - a large measure the secret of the success of the Notre Dame and certain other western reams on the gridiron."

That pOmpadoured boy, with the tan talising smile and the uncanny hands and the lightning-like feet, was a non descript modern miracle which could be felt, but could not be reached. Those big gloves strangers on Sullivan's hand? were also In ithe plot to dethrone a king. Why couldn't he hit with them accurately? The boy had no trouble with them ; when he turned one loose, it went home like electricity. Perhaps he was a dynamo of some unexplained kind. His energy knew no bounds; he was here, he was there, he was every where, and when one least expected him. he would bob up Irom some dumbfound ing source and mutilate with those cruel, gloved hands.

Harvard and Princeton play orily at New Haven, PrtncetoJt and Cam bridge, thereby not subjecting their teams to contamination from the wicked out-' slue world. The Insinuation is also carried that those not fortunate enough to attend ale. Harvard or Princeton eirould come within the fortresses of virtue thrown around the football fields or the "big three" and see how the game can be made safe for the ' Innocents. ARE LOFTY EXAMPLES Intersection al games are also frowned upon, the suggestion being offered that: Yale. Harvard and Princeton should car' for nothinj else -but the "big three" gamea. After holding up Yale, Harvard and Princeton as the lofty example of foot ball perfection, it is rather strange to aee the doctors" from the three Institu tions approve of a new rule that would require every athlete to give a financial statement showing all his sources of rt venue. No doubt the West and South will be quite shocked to learn that a contami nated athlete might go to Yale, Harvard or Princeton. There seems to be a lox of smoke about the necessity of cleaning up football Many of the sores that aeem to have been found on the game are Imaginary. Just because some Illinois and Notre Dame players went on a lark and played In a professional football game, aome are expecting the wrath of the gods to fall on. the nation.

There are enough good cards around to make it a big sea son, but they don't seem to be of the makeable kind. Unless I csn persuade some promoter that Joe Beckett is good enough to be knocked over by Jack Dempsey, the champion will be out of work for th summer because the Wills thing looks windless now.

Gene Tunney and Harry Greb for tsie American light-heavyweight champion ship would be the next best card to a big heavyweight show, and it may be staged in the Jersey City arena. Jack Britton and Benny Leonard may meet for the welterweight championship, but they have been meeting so many times that the fans will not believe they arc going to Cght until they get In the ring, If Leonard Isnt using the "bad hands' alibi to get away from Lew Tendler and Charley Whit, he would be foolish tu take a chance with Britton.
