OPENS UP
WITH VERNON TODAY
With Both Teams Fighting for
Improved Positions Game
Will Be HotIy Contested

Portland will open a seven-game Sc
ries this afternoon with the inVincible
Vernon team at the Chutes, and since
Oakland has showed the Beavers down
a peg in the pennant procession, there
is some hope that the Cutups will keep
it up and make a good record against
the visitors during this series, Since
the change in lineup and the addition
of Carson to the pitching staff the Viii
layers have braced up nightly, and
the fact that they took the series with
Sacramento with the loss of only one
game proves that the team is on the
climb.
The series this week between the six
candidates for pennant honors Will be
of more Importance in the minds of the
fans than any other series since the
season opened. All the teams are now
playing real baseball, and the fight is
very we'll defined. only two and half
games separate Vernon and Oakland,
and If the Senatorial bunch will take a
brace and mop up with the Wolver-
ines, while the Cutups are cleaning the
Beavers, the suburban kids should get
within shouting distance of the top of
the heap before the week is ended.
Carson probably will pitch the open
ing game against Portland today. Ow-
ing to the strong fight made by Su-
preme Kicker McCredie to keep Carson
from joining the Village bunch, and
the probability that he will face his
team mates for the first time today
since he left the coast league, the game
will have more than the usual interest
for the fans. Naturally Carson will
want to win this game more than any
other that he will pitch this season. and
McCredie will want to beat him today
more than at any other time. Let all
the fans be on hand to see the fun.

JOHNSON CONTINUES
TO SLIGHT HIMSELF
Refuses to Do Any Hard Work
Because He Is Down
to 212 Pounds

SAN FRANCISCO, June 14.-After
the days outing which Jack Johnson
enjoyed yesterday he was down 10 tne
grind this morning and afternoon. He
was on the road for the usual twelve
miles in the morning and although 1t
had not been his intention to box IN
the afternoon he spared four ROUNDS
with Al Kaufman because of the large
crowd and the presence of a number
of newspaper representatives. The
work was not strenuous, however, as
the champion quite evidently held HIM
self in and did not work up to his top
speed, as he had done Saturday and
Sunday.
"Why should I box hard?" he said.
"I am in condition and practically
down to weight. I am only weighing
212 pounds and I will be boxing every
day. 7 don't want too much eXercis-
ing Just now"
According to his present plans he will
box a little every day this week. NOW
that his automobiles have gone into
the repair shop, where they will re-
main until July 5, there is less chance
for the colored man to go around the
boulevards and for this reason the
chances are that he will work moro
consistently. According TO Tom Flan-
agan, Johnson will continue his road
work up to within a week of the flght:
johnson Will not cut snort ms roau
work" said Flanagan this afternoon.
HE will keep plugging away at it
straight through and the only differ
ence will be that he will gradually In
crease his speed. Road work is good
thing for johnson, because 1t keeps
his wind in excellent condition and his
weight down."
In spite of the fact that there was
no certainty that Johnson would box
this afternoon there was a crowd of
something like 400 people on hand to
see his performance His work con-
sisted of working with the medicine
ball, punching the bag and four rounds
with Kaufman. 1t was learned today
that Marty Cutler, one of the sparring
partners, left without notification. Ever
since that afternoon that Cutler was
knocked out by Johnson as a matter
of discipline, he has not felt in good
humor and no sprp Use is expressed at
camp that he took his departure.

on the present high price of nails or
the relation between a right cross and

The Lig fighter skipped nimbly
through a handball series with Cor
bett in the afternoon, winning two
out of three games. He went from the
court to the gymnasium. putting in a
busy session with the training appa-
ratus.
The gayety of the afternoon was
heightened by the arrival OF bibu-
lous fan. who requested to be allowed
to use the gym in the mornings. as
he found that he was unable to drink
steadily unless he took exercise.
The mock trial presided over by
Walter Kelly brought about the finish

KANSAS CITY, June 14-Billy Papke
defeated AL Goodale in the second
round OF their fight here tonight. but

At the tap of the gong Papke rushed
from his corner and sent Goodale down

jaw Goodale arose with great diff
ficulty and hung on to Papke. They
wrestled about the ring, Papke landing
two light taps to Goodale's jaw.
Suddenly Goodale sank to his knees
and clutched the ropes. Papke grasped
him by the right arm and appeared to
be trying to lift him to his feet. Be
ing unsuccessful, Papke motioned the
timekeeper to ring the bell. A general
miXup between fighters, officials and
spectators followed, and in about tif-
teen seconds Goodale's handlers threw
a sponge into the ring.

twenty-five years old, and you'll

When the hunter got to the house
there was the negro and the mule.
Exchanging greetings as he asked
how to get to his destination, and
being told how to go. he went up
to the mule and held the compass to
his ear.
