LASSEN Everybody's doing it! Seems as if we ought to get in the swim, referring to the selection of an All-Coast football squad, but, as we haven’ ; seen all of the teams in the Coast conference in action, it follows that some of the players would be selected by here-| say, and some players have an awful lot of noise made about ' them that most of the time they don’t deserve. ’ All-Star selections liven interest in sport, but in order to) be anywhere near fair, the one who selects such a mythical team must at least see all the players in action, according to our way of thinking. _ Take, for instance, the case of Bill Grimm, Washington’ 8 | tackle. We're willing to stand on our hind legs and yodel to} the world that Bill is the swellest bit of tackle machinery} _Funning around in the country, but there are several critics, of them in the Rose City, who never saw Bill in action) year, and are leaving him out of the Coast team alto-| gether. Now, perhaps, you get_whi what we mean. .

Maybe, but football stars seldom make baseball stars of the first water. Moon Ducote, the football star who played the outfield for the Mobile Southern league last season, is going in for profes- sional football this fall and has been signed by a pro team at Cleveland. Since the baseball season closed Ducote has been coaching the Spring Hill College football squad at Mobile.

That is the most credited to any player since 1914, when Sam Crawford and Chick Gandil were credited with 16 each. While President J. Cal Ewing, of the Oakland club, was in Chicago last week he signed Rollie Zeider to play with ake next season, Zeider started 1919 as manager of Roger no | han’s Toledo team, but was not a success and resigned i the season closed, A St. Louis statistician has figured it out that since Branch Rickey took charge of the Cardinals in the spring of 1917 he has released over 100 players—that up to the close of the 1919 season, Rickey has secured another book of blank releases and prepared himself for the coming campaign. Report circulated at the meeting of the Western League club owners in Chicago last week was that William A.

ROBE | The wocesr race has now developed into a battle between the Carbonado and Skinner & Eddy teams, The rest hopelessly out of the running i The great victory of the Skinner & | Eddy squad last Saturday pute the locals within close range of the Car bonadon, Thess two are scheduled to clash at Liberty park next Sun- day. As the result of yesterday's game there ts joy in Woodland Park circles, It wan the first win of the season for the parkers. The game at Liberty park on Sat-| urday afternoon between the two| shipyard elevens turned out to be more of a dog fight than a soccer | match, the Skinner & Eddy team/ scoring three goals to none for Duthies. Play Is Rough Play was hard and fast from whistle to whistle, but {lifeeling crept into the game in the opening minutes and from then on to the finish it was a case of “if you can't get the hall, get the man.” ven when Refere Waller ordered | McMillan, a Skinner & Eddy for ward, off the field for rough tactics after 20 minutes’ play, his example | did not seem to put any fear in the others, and the battle royal continued | to the end. The Duthie team showed up well in midfield play, but lost many; chances to score by dillydaltying | when a shot for goal was open. When | McMillan recelved his walking ticket | it looked like curtains for the Skin ner & Eddy squad, as this meant ten men against eleven for the remaind- er of the game. However, the handicap seemed to spur the 8. & FE. squad on, and they outplayed their rivals all the way, without changing the regular forma-/| tion—two backs being on guard all the time. There was no scoring when the half-time whistle sounded Strange Opens Strange opened the scoring 15 min utes after resumption of play, with a lone drive which Clarke, the Duthie goalie, failed to negotiate. | The second point came from a fout | close in, the ball glancing off OToole’s foot thru the goal | Harrison put the game on ice with a lovely try from 20 yards out. It was the best goal of the match Allerton wax the most outstanding player on the field, his clearing be ing a feature, Strange and Harv son also showed well for the winners. Ballingal, Weir and O'Donnel! were the best for Duthies | The Lineup | The teams appeared as follows | Atkin: Aller Yuma, McLean, tigrew Stevenson, McMillan, Har Woods and Daly Clark, O'Toole, Weir Ballingal, O'Donnell, Thompson, McKillium, Piatt | and Douglas. Skinner & Iddy ton, Strange rison. Mud re, goals galore, ragged football and a “near-fight” was the dish served up to the small crowd of soceer fans that braved the wintry elements to witness the Woodland | Park-Black Diamond mateh at Lib-/ park yesterday, The locals finished with the long end of & 7-to-4 score, giving them | thelr first vietory of the season Riley Scores ‘The visitors, playing with ten men during the first half, were confined tot own end most of the time. Riley opened the scoring for the locals after ten minutes’ play and Smith soon after added another. | The coaldiggers then took up the| running but were stopped in master- | ly style by Horsley. A raid on the Black Diamond end resulted in the | locals again scoring from a scrim-| mage. Hayton put the coaldiggers in the limelight when he scored a couple of beauties Smith beat Troyer for the locals’ fourth goal, and half-time arrived with the score 4 to 2 in Woodland Park’s favor, Moroni Counts Moroni scored for the visitors early in the second period and the equal- iser seemed certain, but Hayton hung on too long, Fitzpatrick com: ing to the rescue and getting the ball out of danger. Craven, White and Smith each added a goal to the locals’ total in this half, Hayton got the visitors’ last notch, ‘The slippery ball had much to do with the ragged playing, many of the goals being the result of miskicks by the defenses. Dan Horsley, in his new position ele mS jplans Says Yankee Frenchman Is Too Clever, Says Bronson, Who Was Overseas With Martin BY JIMMY BRONSON | Who Lately Ketarned from Overseas With Bob Martin Georges Carpentier will whip doe Beckett. He is too good a man for the Briton. The fistic fans over on this side do not know what a great boxer the Frenchman is, He is under-esti mated. He can hit as hard as Beckett and he can take the punishment, too, dust wait until he and the Eng- lishman get into the ring and then you'll see where all these yarns about his poor condition are just the bunk One of the fellows who said Carpentier was not in shape and was no longer the fighter of old was on the English channel with me the time he claimed he was watching the Frenchman work. He manufactured that story Carpentier is one of the pretti- eat boxers I ever saw work. He is « flash of speed and he can hit fairly well, too. He is at his best now and will tive Beckett a whipping, I think.” There is no man on the other side of the Atlantic who com- pares with him. But now when comparing him with Americans I can't say so much. I don't think either Beck- ett or Carpentier is » match for Dempsey. Jack would win in a walk. Some fans say that Beckett would prove the better opponent for Dempsey beeause of his rug- gedness and hitting powers. Well, Carpentier can take some punishment and he can hit as hard, maybe | harder, Big Session Billed for Star League Organization to Be Made at Meeting at Star Tuesday HERE ARE TEAMS IN STAR CAGE LEAGUE University Community Five.

He will work out this afternoon at the same at 3:15 | The visitor is claiming the light heavyweight title of world. If there is such a thing Gibbons is undoubt owning it, becatise he is rated as the best man of his in the East. He isn’t heavy enough to battle a man Dempsey or else he would be after a battle with champion. | Gibbons is a brother of the famous Mike Gibbons, the Paul phantom, one of the best middleweights in the land day. There are a lot of fans who think that Tommy @ | better boxer than his brother Mike, and that's saying Gibbons is a clever borer. He made a monkey out oj | King in Calgary the other night, according to Ct ports, and Mick's no bonehead. j In the meantime Farmer is going about his w Tacoma without wasting much effort. The big fellow best shape of his career, His one big hope is to rag | hand of his and if he does that and does it right, Mr, with all his cleverness, will have a mighty hard time up under the pressure or we lose our guess. But the fam very few in number who will wager that Farmer will have chance with the visitor who can manage his mitts like Gibboms — is advertised. There will be the usual number of preliminaries Wednesday Herb Taylor, the husky Bremerton kid, will box “Red” Gage, the carrot-topped boy, who is coming fast.
