LOB ANGELJES, March Bud Anderson rules alO to 9 favorite over Knockout Brown today for their scheduled 20 round battle at Vernon Saturday. Indications are that there will be heavy betting on the match with the odds very little changed.

Both boxers entered on their final work of training today. Neither worked hard because of their strenuous of yesterday when each entertained large Sunday crowds. Dan Morgan, Brown's manager, wired fight headquarters here from New York, saying: "Get that Medford delegation together. I have $600 to place on Brown at prevailing odds." CIVIL SERVICE EHffl) The U.

TWO NEW WORLD RECORDS GO TO ATHLETIC WONDERS PAT DONOVAN (LEFT) AND RALPH RO9E. Ralph Rose and Pat Donovan again inscribed their names on the scroll of fame by breaking the world's records in the 18-pound shot put and 56-pound weight for height, at the annual indoor meet held recently at the San Francisco Olympic club. Rose broke the record of 4 4 feet 1-2 inches made by Pat Mc- Donald in New York last year, and by so doing regained the honor that McDonald took from him.

Rose showed that his put was no flu.te, for twice during the competition he smashed McDonald's figures. In the first put of the final round the big native son heaved the pill out to 4 4 feet 2 1-2 inches, or 13-8 inches better than McDonald's figure. Turn to the Want Ads Not satisfied with that, Rose came back in his last put and sent out a mighty heave that the galleryites could see had broken all previous records. When measured, the put showed that the local man had smashed McDonald's figure to smithereens, breaking it by 1 foot 5 3-4 inches. This is a mark that will set the easteners thinking, and it will be some time before it is broken.

Pat Donovan sent the 56-pound missile skyward a distance of 72 feet 7 inches, which is exactly half an inch better than his own prevloiis world's record.

KOEPKEY IS ANXIOUS TO GET ON Frank Koepkey would like to get on in Tacoma again. Koepkey has not had a chance to show what he can do in Tacoma. Paul Shock, who so decisively defeated Jack Mace at the last smoker, may be Koepkey's opponent. Shock would outweigh the Olympia demon about twenty pounds but Koepkey does not draw the fine line on a couple of pounds and is willing to take a chance with Shock. Shock showed a wonderful improvement In his work with Mace last week and should be able to put up a fine match with Koepkey.

Koepkey may meet Fireman Dale in Seattle Friday, March 14. This match has been hanging fire for some time and it is not known whether Dale will accept or not. With a natural style of boxing. Koepkey Is a worthy opponent of any of the heavyweights in this section. He has a punch, and that was proved in his match here with "Ink" Loberg, whom he lifted entirely off the floor with a wallop, which traveled only a few inches.

Short Sport Farmer and Bonds before the. Eagles March 27. That should be a whirlwind from start to finish. Joe Hill and Charley Neff will meet in a return match at the same time. Hill says he will train for this match and hopes to win the decision over the Seattle whirlwind.

Augie Christie and Jack Howard the little difference the referee called a draw at the last smoker. The fans like to see Christie in action and would like to see him tackle some of these 148-pounders hereabouts. Christie gave away nearly a dozen pounds to Howard at the last smoker and many thought, at that, he should have had the decision. Y. M.

C. A. basket-ball team traveled to Ortlng Saturday night and took the scalp of the high school team there to the tune of 2 8 to 13. Despite the onesided score the game was a well-played and interesting one. Barbers' Athletic club is anxious to break into the boxing game.

They are planning on pulling off a number of four-round events in the near future. It they follow the same plan as adopted by the Eagles, success Is an assured fact. Hal Sullivan won the Berry trophy yesterday at the weekly shoot of the McAleer Gun club. Woods was the high gun for the amateurs. Taeoma Mountaineers club took a long hike yesterday under the leadership of Phil Caesar.

Leaving Point Defiance the party took to the beach and wound around to Lemons beach and back across to the Eleventh street car line, a total of about ten miles. Amateur ball players are' beginning to take an interest In something' besides skating rlnis and dances and warm up the old wings, in emulation of their-jjror fesslonal brethren. From all accounts, it looks Uke big McMullen was due to cover short for the Tigers. With Ure exception of five other short eMers in the Northwefltern league, he is the best man at his position in the circuit. Over In Seattle they think young Kllltlay going to 011 Mann's shoes in the outfield.

Oh, doubtless. Down in Oakland they have a first baseman who is said to resemble the former Bengallte, Don Cameron. Must be the picture of grace. The seems to stand for something in baseball. There are Neighbors and Nordyke, men on the Tigerg who are the real goods.

Now if we only had George Nlll back, wouldn't that be some trlof VAN HALTREN, GREATEST HE LIKES TO BE UMPIRE PITCHERS ALL FEARED HIM Few names were better known to basebalt fans 10, 20 or 30 years ago than tbat of George E. Van Haltren, who has played on both coasts and mid-continent, In the last three decades. Van Haltren is one of the men who made baseball better. He lives today in a handsome home In Oakland, wealthy enough to spend the rest of his life in idleness did not his nature demand that he pursue an active live. Van Haltren has laid aside bat and glove to handle the indicator, and in season is an umpire; when the season closes he follows the trade he learned as a of because he needs the money, but to keep busy.

The income from apartment houses he owns would keep Van Haltren in affluence. His 40 years rest lightly upon his shoulders. His home is musical, both Mrs. Van Haltren and their two daughters having musical talent and training. Van Haltren was born In St.

Louis, but his parents migrated to Oakland, when he was 3 and he has ever since made his home upon the slope of the Sireras.

the Green wood Morans, representing an Oakland business house. His opportunity came when the pitcher was unable to play. He did so well that the regular never came back, and players who had objected because of Van Haltren's youth stopped grumbling. In 1887 Van Haltren's work had attracted attention and he was signed by Pittsburg, but after pitching a few games he was sold to Chicago, remaining until the Brotherhood was formed. Joining Brooklyn, he pitched 2 3 games, then was shifted to the outfield, finishing the season with a batting average of .346.

In 1891 he joined Baltimore, playing the outfield and short for two seasons, when Pittsburg purchased him. In 1894 he went to New York aud remained until 03, when he went to Seattle and did much to put that team upon its feet. In 1905 Van Haltren Oakland, which had fallen by the wayside, and under hia direction the club won three pennants. Van Haltren at one time caught the "Only Nolan," the first man in the west to throw a curve ball. They were an invincible battery, striking out so many batters they were viewed with superstition.

In 1893 Van Haltren was a victime of second base in Pittsburg, breaking hia leg on that "hoodoo bag," where Otis Clymer and Fred Clarke received injuries. For 12 years, from 1889 to 1901, Van Haltren batted .300 or better; and as for 1901, he says that when Gabriel blows his trumpet it will be learned that he hit .300 and that the men who did the figuring were in error. Van Haltren was one of the fleetest men in baneball, having been timed 100 yards in 10.3 seconds. To him Ed Delehanty was the greatest of all around players, and Christy Mathewson he considers the most wonderful of pitchers. California May Probe Vice, Too (Ny ITnitod Press leased Wire.) SACRAMENTO, March 10.

that the greatest social evils rested directly on the lack of a living wage for women, and that conditlors in California were as flagrant in this regard as in Illinois and other eastern states which are probing the relation of wages to white slavery, Assemblyman Arthur Shannon of San Francisco, announced that he would propose the creation of a state vice commission. peoflb run in miaou.

14th St. Telephone Main 113. No Bar in Connection. Monday, March 10, 1913. FARMERAND BONDS MAY CLASH YEr Frank Farmer blew hack into Tacoma yesterday and stated that his knee would be in a fit condition to box here March 27.

Farmer stated that he would be delighted to meet Joe Bonds. Bonds has been after Farmer since the 23 of November, when the Kapowsin boy won a decision over him. The match should draw an immense crowd as the fans are anxious to see Farmer in action against a man of his own size. It is probable that Hill and Neff will meet in a return match and that Jack Howard and Augie Christie will also have another four-round argument. Pat Dorian, the Seattle 166---pounder who is making a big hit over there, is anxious to get on in Tacoma, and if Christie does not want the return with Howard, the Seattle boxer will get a chance to show Tacoma fans what he cau do.
