PERFECT
RECORDS
AT BAT.

The average fan
i-----> would probably
think II over and come Dack with a
guess of somewhere between IL and
20. Not so, gentle reader A certain
cigar man In Detroit would lay you
Juicy odds on that proposition. He
knows. too And there's reason for
that knowledge.
Shortly before the Tigers started
what proved to be their second per-
nant-winning campaign, the firm OF
n. & J. Mazer--the latter the famous
basketball player-offered box OF
cigars to any Detroit player who Sc
cured such q perfect record. whether
at home or away. There was just
around and cashed in on the smokes.
Strangely enough neither Crawford
nor Cobb-the demon sluggers of the
outfit-were among the choice eight.
In fact, the honors were hogged BY
four of the men, as follows:
April 17-Schaefer, five hits out OF
Ave times at bat.
May 3-MeIntyTe, enc ait cut OF enc
technical time at bat.
Aug. 6--Mcmtyre, one hit out OF one
time at bat. ~
Aug. 9-Rossman, two hits out Of
two times at bat.
Aug. 9-Rossman. three hits out OF
three times at bat.
Sept. 4-McIntyre, four hits out OF
four times at bat.
Sept. 26-Schaefer, three hits out Oh
three times at bat.
Sept. 29.--Schmidt, one hit out OF
one time at bat.
The Mazer offer Is open again this
year and already there has been one
claimant for the smokes. This is
Schmidt who. on Sunday, two-bases
twice out OF three appearances at bat,
getting an exempting sacrifice hit on
the other occasion he faced Wright OF
Cleveland.

Now that they have proved their
class over the best ball teams in the
Pacific coast league. the National
league stars and the Philadelphia Ath-

themselves. The first game Of their
months series viii take place this
afternoon at Recreation park. If the
tossers are favored with fne weather
this week they promise 10 draw out
fun houses, for the article of ball
which they put up against the Coast

all along the line.
There is lot Of rivalry between
these aggregations. During their
transforming trip across the continent
they played games in all the principal
cities. Strangely enough. the Athletics

OympiCs to Play the Barbarians: Memory Betting
At Emeryville: Nationals and Athletics Meet Today
Evenly Matched Basket Ball
Teams Ready to Meet

The Victor basket ball team OF
st. Mary's college and the first five
of st. Joseph's academy will play what
promises to be an exciting game in the
Oakland college gymnasium this after
noon. Both are 130 pound teams and
both have made good in several con-
tests this season.
The Victors, managed by viii n.
Thorpe, won an enviable reputation
last year by losing only one game of
their entire schedule. So far this year
they have had nothing but victories.
The Berkeley team is said to contain
some excellent material. Although the
academy players have not been in the
game as long as the Oaklanders they
are flushed with number of recent
triumphs and feel confident of being
able to lower the colors of Thorpe S
colts.
The basket ball team from st. Jo-
seph's academy gives promise of maxi
ing a record for itself in the basket
ball tournament soon to start under
the auspices of the Catholic schools
athletic league. The game is sched-
uled for this afternoon, az Wednesday
is half holiday both at the academy
and st. Mary's college.

Portland Will Have Only
One Cub in Field

There viii be only one baseball team
in Portland when the season opens next
spring This was definitely decided
late last night at the meeting OF the
directors of the Coast league. Judge
McCredie5 representing Portland, made
"a bitter fight TO retain his team in the
Northwest league, but he was finally
voted down.
When the issue came TO a vote Direc-
tors lsh of san Francisco, Walter OF
Oakland and Graham of Sacramento
voted against McCredie. To the great
surprise Of everybody McCredie was
supported b. Berry Of Los Angeles and
Maier Of Vernon. This. however. did
him no good, as il takes a majority
vote TO carry. For a time il looked
as though McCredie might win out
McCredie was very much disappointed
and he was not slow in expressing his
chagrin. The matter was argued over
IA ken. McCredie coutended that he
should be allowed TO keep his North
west league team in Portland for an
other year al least. 1t is barely pos
slble that he viii play another card
before the season opens.
Dan ". Long was reelected secretary
Of the league. All the old directors-
frank n. 1sh of San Francisco Ed
Walter OF Oakland, Charles Graham of
Sacramento and Judge McCredie-were.
again chosen. The only change was
the ousting Of James Brooks Of Vernon
in favor Of Fred Maier. No reason for
this change was given by the officers
Of the league.

NEW ORLEANS. Nov. 16.-Phil Brock
of Cleveland, Ohio, has been matched
to fight Leonard Lauder of Los Angeles
before the Royal Athletic club Saturday
night, November q. When Ad VOL
CAST, the challenger of Battling Nelson
and Abe Attell, was in this city both
men challenged him TO fight. He did
not refuse them, but stated that if they
got together he would meet the better
man of the two.
Today Brock and Lauder were
matched and it is expected that the
battle will be one of the hardest fought
in this city, as both men are anxious
to fight Woolgast. Attell today wired
an acceptance of the terms of Wolga st
for the feather weight championship.
which will be arranged on the Pacific
coast.
AtteH wired from Memphis that he
would meet Wolgast as soon as VOL
gast deposited $1,000 to guarantee the
fight and the fact that he would make
122 pounds ringside for the fight Last
week Wolgast, while here waiting for

Piet. the French lightweight, who was
knocked out by Ad Wolgast in the sec
ond round of their 20 round scheduled
fight Sunday declared today that his
defeat was due to his unfit physical
condition.
Give me another chance" is the sub
stance of Piets plea. I'll fight any
lightweight in the country and under
any conditions. All the training that
l underwent for Wolgast went for
naught when my stomach went back on
me and when | had to weaken myself
Saturday night by spending some hours
in a Turkish bash taking off weight in
order to make 1873 pounds.
