(Bud Anderson is the Medford,
Oregon, lightweight, who jumped
into the front ranks of the light
weights in night.
Bud Anderson has an out of
the ordinary wallop. He has an
out of the ordinary husky build
for lightweight and he is out
of the ordinary in personality.
Bud is not talaer. Prying con-
versation out of him is painful!
Now, Bud Anderson comes
through with an out of the ordi-
nary story. He does not tell low
he licked somebody, or about
fighting at all. He tells about
his ranch, for at heart Bud An
derson is not a fighter but a
farmer. Yet he is touted as of
championship caliber nnd may
some day hold the title.)
BY BUD ANDERSON.
I'm not stuck on the boxing
game. l may as well be frank
and tell you truthfully that I'm
in it for the money. I'm not
fighting for the joy Of the game,
although l like to box. Nature
gave me the strength and STAN
ina to fight and l am going to
use that gift to put me on COM
forthble financial basis. Then
I'll QUIT the game.
To be a successful farmer is
my ultimate dream. I'd rather
do farm work than fight.
Ever since my first fight have
been saving my money towards
establishing a good paying farm.
The first IS l earnd by boxing
was in a four-round contest in
Portland. l was happy as lark
when l got that FIVE. I put 1t
away, and that flyer with the
money / got in my following
fights started me on the road to-
wards farmerville. l purchased
ranch near my home in Van
couver.
My ranch will be the prettiest
in Washington when I get 1t i'm
proved the way 1 want 1t. It has
a spring and a brook on 1; and
some of the prettiest grove seem
lery in the Northwest. 1t consists
of about II acres, but l will in
crease its size after a few more
fights.
1 would rather train for a fight
by just working on my farm, but
my manager, Dick Donald, in
sists that I do some work in the
training gym. However, most of
my preparatory conditioning con-
| sists of doing just the commonest
of farm duties. While training
for the Brown and Mandot fights
l painted buggies, curried horses,
dug gardens and did all such
work.
1 am going to improve my
farm as much as possible. When
l win the championship, which /
am sure l will, / intend to stay In
the ring only a short while and
then hike for my ranch for good
After that you'll hear nothing of
Bud Anderson, fighter, but only
of Bud Anderson, farmer.

STADIUM HIGH
IS HOPEFUL
Of VICTORY

The second state annual track
and field meet will be held in the
Stadium this afternoon, the first
event being run off at 1880
o'clock. 1t is estimated that
about 100 athletes will participate
in the various events. All indi-
cations point to q tremendously
large crowd being In attendance.
Many rooters will be present from
Seattle and will keep things live
~.
All the short events will be run
off in haste. The first things
scheduled on the program are the
high jump, pole vault and shot
put, at 1880 O'CLOCK. The first
track events will be run off at
1:45.
1t is expected that the relay
race, which winds up the meet,
will start at 1870, but of course
this is uncertain.
No school is predicting victory.
The Stadium athletes hope to win
the meet and the Michigan and
Amherst cup honors, but do not
claim the meet. Great rivalry
is apt to be displayed between the
two Seattle schools, however, and
the Stadium bunch.
Many crack athletes are enter
ed In the meet, and In all proba-
hlity several records will be shat
tered.

The Years Big Baseball Barter

Employed to give New York a
hrst-class representative in The
American league, Frank Chance
mas started with vengeance.
He has traded Hal Chase. one
OF the greatest first basemen in
baseball. The other is jake Dau-
bert, who is mentioned to prevent
other first sackers letting their
imagination run away with them
In sending Chase to the White
Sox, Frank Chance secured Roi-
lie Zeider as third baseman and
Babe Borton as arst base guar
dian. He also wanted Morris
Rath, but failed to get him.
In Zeider, the Yankees have az.
cured one of the best players in
the land. He is a natural tuird
baseman, but could not play reg
ularly with the Sox, because Of
the presence of the figh-prloed
Harry Lord. He was used az
utility player and In consequence
had little opportunity to show
his real worth. Playing regular
ly. he will bolster up the Yanxee
infeld. Borton is a fair flrst
baseman, Under the coaching OF
Chance, he is apt to develop Into
a high-class performer.
Chance will play FIRST part OF
the time, but cannot be depend
ed upon to be a regular. Prior

ATTEMPT TO ROB
Would.Be Robber tired To Raise
Window But Failed--Pair of Shoes
and Tools Taken.

An unsuccessful attempt to enter
and rob the store Of f. NJ. Ascom, Of
South Queen street. was discovered
Monday shortly before noon, when
Baker Davis, clerk, had occasion TO
enter the repairing department, No
ticing that window on the south
side of the building was responsible
for much cold air entering the build
ing, Mr. Davis made an investigation,
and was surprised to learn that some
one had attempted to effect entrance.
A pane of glass had been removed
from the lower SASH, but the would-be
robber was unable TO raise it to suf-
ficient height to permit an entrance.
However, he was able to reach hand
through the opening and secure a
pair of ladies' shoes and some tools
which were on the work bench. Aside
from these nothing else was missed.
When the act was committed or
who did il are not known. The work
was either done Saturday or Sunday
night. because when the store was
closed Saturday the window was low
cred and fastened. Tie party was
good enough TO carefully place the
glass on the ground so it could NOT
be broken.
