ASSOCIATION FIVE EASILY
DEFEATS FAST IDAHO "PREPS'

Y. NJ. c. A., SO; Idaho Props, 81
Captain UZzclls clever Associa-
ton five broke the winning streak
of the Idaho Props last night at
the local Y. NJ. c. A., and added
another victory to their Unbroken
chain, grabbing the long end of the
score in a game which was by far
the most exciting and sensational
seen in Spokane this season.
With the score even, 1914, at
the end of the first half, the locals
went after the Idahoans in such
fashion that even Coach Van
Cook, who is a stickler after the
fine points of the game, was forced
to concede that his crew showed
some class The Idaho guards
weakened perceptibly in the last
half, allowing their foe easy
chances at the basket repeatedly
and, needless to say, the Associa-
ton forwards took advantage of
their opportunities.

DECLARES PRES. JOE COIN

..1f Portland desires so much to
break loose from affiliations with

merchants go to California to sell
their goods" declared President
Joseph p. Cohn of the Indians this
morning upon returning from Sc
attic, where at a meeting between
Dugdale, Brown and Cohn last
night IL was decided to drop Port
land from the Northwestern Cir
cult.
"A concerted movement is on
foot today in the northwest to
boycott Portland goods" declared
Coin, land before we get through
with them they will realize that
they belong to the Pacific north
west, that their interests are our
interest, in baseball as well as
business, and that when they dc
sert the northwest, the section that
made Portland what ii is today, to
take their place among the Cali
fornia cities, they made the worst
possible move.
Portland has treated the north
west shamefully in baseball for the
past few years, insulting North
western league players and using
their real friends in a way calcu-
lated to turn that friendship into
hatred.

WAS t AN
ELEVATION?
BY TIP WRIGHT

Under a photograph of Horace
Fogel, the new head of the Phila,
delphia National league team, l
read in a metropolitan Sunday. pa
per the following lines:
Horace Fogel, former newspa-
perman, who has been elevated TO
the ranks of pagnates through the
grace of Charles Murphy, owner of
the Cubs
Do you get that elevated?
Let's see, it was President
Roosevelt who said:
There is no higher, no more
honorable calling, than that OF the
men connected with an upright,
! fearless and truthful newspaper;
no calling in which a man can
render greater service to his fell
| low cOuntrymen"
And Horace Fogel has been ele-
waited to his present position. Oh,
slush.
First time | ever heard a base
| ball owner referred to as "ele-
waited" | don't think even the
most egOtistical caterer to the pub
lie fancy regards himself as much
of an influence in the moral uplift
A better pen picture would be one
depicting the get the money kid"
OF course | may be off my bang
entirely in my idea, but I'd rather
be sitting in front of little old
typewriter, telling the truth and
striving for clean sport, even if
there is not 100000 or $4,000 u
year velvet in the job, than herd
with fellows like Murphy and
Brush.
Baseball magnates as class are
all right. They are generally good
fellows in the commonly accepted
definition of the phrase. Of course
here and there you will find a few
CRABS" but undesirables exist III
every gathering, like the apples
they shoot through a cider mill.
But the baseball magnate's high
est ambition is to see the bank roll
take on proportions which in a hui
man would call for an obesity cure
immediate. You never heard of d
newspaper man who orgot he had
a duty to perform, or who trailed
| the almighty dollar until the scent
was cold enough to freeze Bos-
ton debutante, did you?
Well, That's the answer.

The initial smoker of the East
Side Athletic club, scheduled for
January Z, is to be a slam-bang
affair consisting of four boxing
bouts which are q credit to Match
maker ]. l.. Reager.
Martin Stewart, the s. A. A. c.
lad who knocked out Howard Sla-
ter at the Portland-Spokane
smoker, will shine in the main
event, with Lance Williams, who
has beaten some good ones about
town, as the contender.
Battling Terrio and Harry Cra-
ger are slated to mix things at
145 pounds. The indications are
that they will, for both young
sters have regulations for going
after the other fellow from the
start and striving for a knockout.
Clyde Patten and Will Mccarthy
lis Founders, will furnish the sport

While Creel has advanced into
the boxing instructor class since
his fight with Orsie. the latter has
not been on the shelf by any
means, and is just as hard nut to
crack as ever.
In addition to the Creel-Orsie set
to, Tommy Kelley and Jack Kaye

may be matched as secondary
lights, with a couple preliminary
