I With the sixth week of the season at

their ups and downs. .

fWO HXRLERS FAIL
f. Failure of Tom Hughes and Doc Cran-
- - fall on the mound-Is one of the reasons
why the Angels sre no higher up in the
. race. : .
' F Vernon is getting good pitching, hitting
- Snl fielding, and is playing bang-up
-. baseball. The Seattle club (rot away to
' a good start against Portland mainly
through the efforts of Vean Grerg and a
... douple of other portsiders ; but, at that.
1 the Indians were aided in 'their victories
? ljr the poor fielding of the Portland club.
, I Boiled down, the failure of the Beavers
i inability to hit ki the pinches, caused
reinjuries to Hale and Cox, poor fleld
- fciff and the absence of Manager Ken
worthy i from the lineup. The pitching
' jut week was good, but the fielding' was
terrible, and this is attributed to the fact
iiat ' the balance well, K.enworthy is
bsent from the Infield. -
SJXJMES HANDICAP OAKS
Oakland started off, like a whirlwind,
ut injuries to Jack' Knight and Bift

I The Sacramento club Is weak on field

working any too well. ; Duffy Lewis' Salt

It, and some of the Seattle

lltui WAK.bK or umuia, rel., a
of
11
middleweight wrestler, haa , picked
out a fine job for himself Wednesday
night in .the opinion of followers of the
mat game in Portland. Wrnft- has
agreed to throw Paul Amort nd Krnest
Olsen in 30 minutes in the Heilig the
atre or forfeit the match.
The affair will be the only preliminary
to the Ted Thye-Louis Pergantas grap
pling bout, which is creating more Inter
est than haa been registered in advance
of a wrestling match In Portland In
many a day.
PEBGAKTAS MAKING WEIGHT
Thye and Pergantas will weigh in
at the Olympic gymnasium under the
watchful eye of George L. .Parker
Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock and
Pergantas has agreed to make 165
pounds tt lose his $100 forfeit money.
When he completed his workout Monday
afternoon, the scales barely moved at
166 pounds and Pergantas is confident
that he will be under the limit at 2
o'clock and as strong as ever when he
steps onto the mat a 9 o'clock Wednes
day night.
The final strenuous session to reduce
will be indulged In Tuesday afternoon
and Wednesday morning will find the
Boston Greek tapering off his training.
Thye reports that be is .in ' excellent
shape, having appeared in a bout last
week in Spokane against Tarro Miyake.
He is none the worse for his experience
with the Japanese jlu Jltsu expert, Thye
winning, but not without a struggle.
SEAT SALE IS HEAVY
The advance sale opened at the Heilig
theatre Monday morning and quite
number of ringside seats were disposed
of. Virgil Hamlin, promoter of the
wrestling program, is confident that the
fans will mafie a good showing, for'
both men are popular in 'their sets. Per
gantas came here an unknown but in
the short time that he has "been In Port
land he has gained many friends who
are certain that he will be able to be
the first man toin Thye'a shoulders to
the mat.
Against Ad Santet, Pergantas showed
that he Is to be feared when it comes
to applying dangerous holds as well as
being able to breaV punishing -locks and
he knows that Thye is capable of putting
up with almost everything. It has been
two or three yearulnce Thye has been
forced to taste ; offeat In- a. straight
catch-as-catch can contest although he
has had some mighty stiff opposition
since that time.- -
The preliminary ; bout will start
promptly at 8 :30 o'clock and the main
event will be for best two out of three
falls or a decision at the end of two
hours.

COACH THORNB of the Lincoln high
baseball team found it necessary to
use three twirlers . against the High
School of Commerce on Multnomah field
Monday afternoon, and, as a result, the
Railsplltters were victorious, 8 to 7. only
after a spirited contest. Just before the
game started snow began falling,1 which
was followed by rain, and after waiting
for 15 minutes without any apparent let
up. Coach Murphy of Commerce and
Coach Thorne agreed to begin hostilities
with the proviso that the umpire could
call the affair any time he saw fit.
; For two innings the boys played in the
rain, and then it ceased, and by the time
the engagement was completed the dia
mond was as good as ever.;? Sergeant H.
E. Davis, the official umpire of the Port
land Public High School league, failed to
show up, and the coaches agreed on an
other arbiter. .
The Stenographers scored twice in the
first inning on three hits, but the lead
was short-lived. The Railsplltters came
back with four markers on a trio of bin
gles and one error and made one more In
each of the 'second and third innings.
Commerce made one In the fourth and
another in the fifth, tying the score with
a couple of 'counters in the seventh.
In Lincoln's half of the eighth the vic
tors broke the tie after two were out.
two runners making home on a passed
ball and Swanson's error when he threw
wide. In the ninth Commerce staged a
rally which netted a run, and the bases
were full when the third out was made.
Gunther 'replaced King In the eighth and
Klynn went on the mound for Gunther in
the ninth. The all-aroud playing of
Johnny Faust, the Lincoln shortstop, fea
tured the matinee, the red-head making
four hits in five times at the bat, steal
ing four bases -and featuring in the only
double play of the game. The fielding
of Freddie Collins at second, as'well as
"pimy" Flynn at first, was of high cal
iber for the winners.
jKorhonen struck out 10 -Lincoln bat
teirs, and, although he allowed nine hitts,
two less than made by his teammates,
his six walks and the five errors made
bir his players proved too much for htm
to overcome. The score :

-- By Earl R. Goedwia - I
rnilBmost popular decision ever iren
X dered la a Portland ring by a referee
gave Lackey Morrow of Spokane a 10-
round verdict -seer Joe Oomtaa of Port
land in the main "event of the Portland
municipal boxing commission's smoker
in the Armory Monday night., To the
visitor was given one of the most en
Qtusfastie and spontaneous ovations ever
accorded a winner in a local arena.
Referee ; Ralph ' ; Gruman thrust Mor
row's hand in the air at the conclusion
of the bout without wavering, in fact. It
seemed as if the bell had hardly sounded
; when the decision 'was awarded andi just
as the boys were coming out of a clinch.
Oruman's act seemed to dase even -the
most partisan Morrow followers, for' it
was several seconds before the outcome
was realised and the- tremendous out
burst of the fans I started. When it did
slant, it lasted until the; last few spec
tators had filed out of the biff enclosure.
MORBOW BADLT FTJSttSHED .' 1
What held up- the Spokane youth in
the first three rounds of the engage
ment, only he knows, for he certainly
took plenty of nunlshment. He attempted
Infighting up to about the middle of the
fifth canto and that ' was Just to Gor
man's liking, for Gorman sent In many
a telling blow which seemed to totter
the taller boy. But from the fifth on.
Lackey began using his left which i con
tinually found itself resting on Joe's
chin and face and' he mixed them up by
coming through with hard rights, alter
nating between the head and body just
often enough to make it apparent that
Gorman was getting the worst of it.
.Never once did Gorman back away,
although he did seek shelter several
times by going into a clinch. The bat
tle was one of the most exciting ever
staged in an Oregon ring circle, and
return bout certainly would be the signal
for a capacity turnout. To Morrow must
be given ail the credit -due a winner, for
he certainly displayed rare Judgment,
was cool throughout and was capable of
taking everything Gorman had to offer
without hitting the canvas or seeking an
"out."j He had the shade as the event
progressed, but it did seem that a draw
would not have hurt either lad.
MORROW IS GAME
However. Referee Gruman is entitled
to his opinion. It goes as final and he
called it as he saw it. Morrow will be
a popular boy in these parts, for he is
game to the core, asks no favors and ex
pects nonei
Speck "Woods of ' Bend, Or., wishes he
had done a little more training for his
bout with Jack Dayls of Seattle. After
they had torn arouhd and lunged at each
other in the first rOund. Iavis came out
of his corner in the second stanza with
blood in his eye. The two met in the
center of the ring and away, they went.
Woods landed a -couple of hard ones, but
he stepped a haymaker With his chin
and dropped for the count of nine. He
got up only td take, another and he re
mained On his haunches until nine, only
to' have the act repeated. The fourth
time he went down Referee Gruman
stopped the encounter and awarded Da
vis the call. j.
Jimmy Valentine St. t'aul, Minn., re
ceived a six round decision over Allie,
Taylor of Bend. iValeatine carried a
little bit too much steim for his op- j
ponent, although Taylorj didn't hesitate
to mix. Mike DePinto ! was given the
decision over Joe Simmons, but the
crowd didn't take kindly to the outcome,
thinking that it should have been a
draw. In the curtain raiser. Brick Coyle :
was too much for Battling Lester, win

TVTEW YORK, May 9. Jess Wizard is
L apparently in earnest in his proposal
to take on Jack Dempsey this year. This
is Indfbated by the letter received from
the -Potowomie giant by Jimmy Deforest,
intimating that h may require Jimmy's
services as a trainer. Lerorest, as an
know, trained Jack Dempsey when he
was preparing for Jess, and WlUard
knows better than anyone the good job
Deforest did.
' Willard told Deforest he waa in better
condition than he had ever been and is
still working hard. The former cham
peon's evident intention to take revenge
on jacK. II ne can, woma receive wioe
respect were-he to take some good heavy
weight before he meets Dempsey. May
be he will.
. As', a result of negotiations between
Johnny . Kilbane and Frank Flourney.
Madison Square Garden matchmaker,
looking toward 'a title fight, both men
parted peevishly. Frank refused to ' per
mit Johnny- to be introduced from the
ring at the Martin-Babe Herman fight.
and so Johnny went; back to Cleveland in
a nuii. . e. i
. There is a chance, though, Kilbane will
meet some good man this summer in a
12-round. no-decision bout in the ring at
Boyle's Thirty Acres-.
By the way, referring to Kilbane's open
air bout, which may be arranged for the
Thirty Acres, it la whispered, that Johnny
Dandee will be the opponent, Jock Ma
lone of St. Paul and Augie Ratner of
New Tork will settle their differences in
the Madison Square Garden the middle of
this month. 1

TVTEW YORK. May 8. "I am beginning
ll to think that the ball players are
gettina; stronger or have better 'eye
sight," said Miller Hugglns. the Yankee
manager, when Bome figures were sub
mitted t htm, about batting. ' "Maybe
baseball ia helping the whole American
race to improve physically," .he con
unuea. grin.ning. "If that's the case, we
can't get out too many ball players." .
In April. 5 1921, there were 800- more
hits' made by the hie leaguers than were
made in April. 1920,- In AprtHJ2.-500
more have been made than i were made
in. April. 1921. Xi"t make me believe
that the ball ia responsible for all that.
said Huggins. "There's too much f. it.
Nor do I think that -ail of the pitchers
are going to the scrap heap. Two no
hlt games, some two-httt games and
three and four-hit games as early as
this don't look much like it. '
GETTING STRONGER
"There was not a no-hit game in 1921.
We're getting better and stronger and
if I were in there I think I'd be hitting
about .550 myself."
