RUPTURE MAY BE HEALED liivmift-atlns I'omrallU-c of Two In Mitutlon find IWnn Attack Xot Ma Ik-loos After Krcrnt An naal Football Game. ErGF.NE. Or- lee. 51 Spe-!aM That athletic and diplomatic relations will be renewed between tha University f Oregon and the Orton Agricultural College a ha ballet In this city to night, when it bccami knowa that tha report of tha Investigating commltteee of tha two Institutions bad been mad puMrc Tha delay of a month on tha part or tha University, which haa occurred In reaching ultimata findings In regard to tha Inrldenta following tha O. A. C.-U. of O. football Kama at rorvallla. No vember i:. haa been occasioned through tha unwillingness on tha part of tha University to reach such Undine with out tha benefit of an opportunity to know something of the testimony which has been taken at tha Agricultural College, bear ins; on these Incidents. The University committee chanted with tha Investigation early requested for this purpose a conference with the Ilka com mittee of tha Agricultural College. whlrM request the Agricultural College committee did not feel empowered to grant before the return of Prealdent Kerr, who was absent attending tha meet'ag of the National Association of Agricultural Colleges at Washington. I The student body of the University r.p to the present time has withheld con sideration of the mstters Involved at the request of the faculty committee. Tha desired conference did not be come possible until Thursday of last weeg. The agreed statement of facta fol lowing is the result of several daya of very rarefol work on the part of, tha two committees. Agrerd Statement of Facia Out. -1. The attitude of tha great ma jority of students of both intstltutlona waa friendly and courteous throughout the day. Decorations of homes and pub lic b'ulldlngs with Intermingled Agricul tural College and University colors, ao rtal courtesies extended to both stu dents and faculty of the 1'nlverslty. careful preparations for the comfort of both team and visitors, all Indicated moat strongly tha friendly attitude of both the Agricultural College and tha townspeople. :. The game wss a fine exhibition of clean Intercollegiate sport, and tha student bodies of both Institutions con ducted themselves In a sportsmanlike and gentlemanly manner. It appears that tha selling of re lore waa participated In by tha slu drnts of both Institutions, although tha greater number of colors seem to have been eecured by tha Agricultural Col lege men. Persona not membera of either student body were active in gathering souvenirs. 4. There la a conflict of testimony ss to the origin of the rush made upon the automobile, part of the testimony Indicating that there waa provocatiou In the way of a challenge from the occu panta of the automobile, which la con tradicted by equally positive statements to the contrary. It appears that a scuf fle took place between the Agricultural College students, who were attempting to take the University colors from the car. and the occupants of the automo bile, during which some blows were struck snd some Injuries resulted to the eotomobtle. The automobile contained Mr. I Jitourette. an Injured University football player, who waa being taken to the gymnasium for medical treatment. It was stopped by a crowd about It. and Mr. Lalourette waa carried from this point to the gymnasium. Most. If not alL of the Agricultural College students seem to have been unaware that the car contained an Injured player. Tall ho Incident Recalled. "I. A tallyho decorated with Univer sity colors, and containing a party of women and gentlemen, three of the former students of the University, was attacked by a small party of Agricul tural College men for the purple of securing the University colors. Various Indignities were offered by them to the occupants of the tallyho. They persisted In the attack, although repeatedly driv en off by the occupants of the wllybo, tint It they reached the main street. -. It appears that the hat of a Uni versity student, who wss on crutches, waa taken while be waa in the midst of a crowd of students. A student of the Agricultural College protested against the taking of the hat on the grounds that the man wss on crutches, but the hat was not returned, and the man tak ing It made a derisive remark In re ply. It appears that the majority of the men In the crowd were unaware of the fact -that the man waa obliged to usa crutches. "7. It appears that there is no evi dence to ahow that a student of the University waa rursued through the Occidental Hotel by students of the Ag ricultural College. ". A group of Agricultural College students cut the hair of Hermann 8tg glln. a University student, formerly a student of the Agricultural College. This took place while he waa In the car wait ing for the train to start. This waa not prompted by any ill-will towards tha University students, but by a personal grudge against Mr. Sigglln. Blow at Beaa Not Malicious. ". It appear that tha rushing at the cVpot waa in tha main good-natured on both side, although la several Instance personal encounters of an unfriendly na ture orcurret In connection with the seising of colors. The most serious In cident wi an Injury received by Harold Bean, a umrrtty atudent. during one of the rushes. . it -fears tnat In eoroe way ) waa struck oa a spol on tha forehead mad sensitive by a alight sur gical operation two years ago. There la no evUrnce proving that the blow was IrtentlocaU or malicious. Mr. Feaa wae rendered nnconscloua for a period of 11 or IS minutes: on recovery of conscious ness he gave evidence of Intense suffer ing snd continued to suffer during the trip bom. "1A An earnest effort waa made at the university to prevent sensational news paper publicity relative to the Incidents) following the gam. An urgent personal request to this effect waa made by the university authorities te the papers of both Portland and Kugene. Ae many as possible of the unlvermtv correspondents were seen on the dv following the game and asked to handle the matter atth care. The newspaper reports were In all ca-rv eaprrsetuna of Individual opinion ad war la no way aaiborued by either the university aothnritiea or the student body. The Agricultural College disa vows responeio:mT iui pny ' - appearing In the state pre" except such statements ae appeared under Oregon Agricultural College headline In The Portland Oregonlan. Telegram and Jour nal. Tna deep sympathy excited by the Injury to Mr. Bean seemed to be largely responsible for the precipitation of pub licity from the university and In all like lihood waa responsible for the publication of Incldenta which probably otherwise would have passed unnoticed. The mo llis of the correspondents does not seem to have been a malicious one. They acted upon such Information i they had. which In aeveral Instance, both as affect ing the university corrcspondenta and the Agricultural College correspondents, mibeequent Investigation has proved, to be Inaccurate. "Any Impression conveyed, even unin tentionally, that incldenta attributable to a comparatively email number of lrre- ponstble students of tha Agricultural 'ollege wer either shsmt In or coun tenanced by the great majorttv of the students nf the Agricultural College, waa errone Hie.

CLUB GIVES REASON Multnomah Not Opposed to Location of Auditorium. ASSURED IDENTITY SOUGHT Athletic Inatitution's Only Opposi tion to Building Is Fear of Loss of Independence Largo Swimming Tank Asked. To enlighten the public concerning tha proposed location of an auditorium on the site of tha Multnomah Amateur Athletie 'Club grounds a number of reasons have been advanced to explain the Multnomah Club's stand In tha con troversy. In the first place, according to of ficials of the Multnomah Club, they have not at any time figured upon building an auditorium on their prop erty for the reason that such a propo sition haa never been made to them In a manner that would Insure the iden tity and independenc of tha athletic club, which is one of tha most stable assets of the athletlo Institution. Tha Multnomah Club doea not feel that it Is subservient to any other institution In Portland, and feels alao that what It haa acquired In the way of real es tate and landed Investments has been accomplished purely aa an athletic club and without the aid or assistance of any other Institution. While the club would undoubtedly be willing to further any public-spirited mission such as the need of an au ditorium undoubtedly is. still, it Is pointed out. it cannot feel that It should be called upon to sacrifice any advantages possessed by Its enterprise In purchasing the site now possessed and Intended to be occupied by the large and spacious quarters planned by the athletic organization. The building committee of the Mult nomah Club is perfecting ths plans for the new etructure aa rapidly aa possi ble, and the many and varied details to be Incorporated into tha structure are so complicated Just at present that It is hardly possible to give out the definite plana until the actual drawings have been aubmitted and approved. One of tha principal Improvements demanded on the plans already sub mitted la an Increase in the dimensions of the proposed swimming taak. The present plans provide for a tsnk 76x25 feet, but the swimming enthusiasts, who have commenced to prove one of the strongest factors In the club, are not satisfied with this and demand a tank 100x40 feet, which they aay is-the regulation size, and they are emphatio In the request because of the rapid rise of swlmmlnic in popularity. Just what the club directors and the building committee will decide to do in thla matter cannot be foretold at this time, for It is a subject that requires con siderable attention because of Its im portance to the large number of swim mers now listed at the club. Thla branch of athletica within the short space of IS months haa become one of tlie most prominent features of the organization, and Is due. to a great degree, to the work of Instructor Cavlll. aa well as to Frank K. Wat kins, Frank Harmar. Oliver King Jef fery and other enthusiastic members who embraced aqua Ilea immediately after Cavlll waa secured as instructor. Tha swimmers of the club, and there are over 600 of them. Including the members of the Women's Annex, will ask for a regulation tank 100x40 feet, and the attitude of thla membership Is what haa caused the delay in arrang ing final details. JACKSONVILLE BOTS GET BLOW Ball Grounds Sold to Mayor Who Will Cut Plot Into Lots. JACKSONVILLE. Or.. Pec. II. (Spe cial. The Jacksonville ball grounds on Fifth street, the first and the best In Jackson County. If not in Southern Oregon, have been sold to Mayor Shaw and Roy Clrlch. of Ulrlch Bros., this city. The lack of Interest and tha poor showing made by the team last year, together with the fact that It la not paying expenses is responsible for the sale. The grandstand, bleachers and fence will be removed and the grounds cut Into city lots. One or two residences are already planned. While this Is a blow to baaeball In Jacksonville. It Is not certain that tha boys will not be able to find another location for a base- lall park. Between the new waterworks and the extension of the Rogue River Rail way building lots are looking; up in Jacksonville. Yesterday a total of 10 lota were sold to different parties, the last four at an advance in price of S0 apiece. M"LACGHLXX PLAYS PIEDMONT Recreation Park to Be Scene of Championship Game. Desiring that the amateur Inde pendent football championship of ths city be settled, the McLaughlin Club and the Piedmont Stars football elevens will meet Sunday afternoon at Recre ation Park.

The Ptedmont team will take ths field against McLaughlin with the same lineup as played all season. McLaugh lin, however, will be strengthened by several men from the Catholic Toung Men's team, if reports are true, it be ing said that Glanelli. Campion and others will play against the Piedmont youths. Piedmont lost to the Catholics Club last Sunday by the score of 11 to 6. McLaughlin's most recent victory was over tire East Portland team, 6 to S. " PORTLAND TO BE REPRESENTED Annual Boxlnfc and Wrestling Events Held at Spokane.
