PORTLAND IS BEST Australian Boys' Team Loses Soccer Game Here. . ONE GOAL TO NONE, SCORE High School Stars 'Win on We FWd, Which Handicaps Visitors, To gether With Losa of Three Players by IUtm."" Contrary to general expectations, the Australia boya were beaten by tha high schools all-atar soccer eleven yester day by ona goal to nothing. Heavy rain left Multnomah Field al most a quag-mlra, making combined play an Impoaalblllty, and In con quanc minimising tha better tacUca of tha Kangarooa, who also had three good players in bed Instead of on tha field. Tha local players, realising that con ditions ware In their favor, want for tha man with tha ball. Thay hustled tha Kangarooa all tha time to put them off their game. . py was of give-and-take order all through tha flrat half, both aldea being- at fault In their shooting, while not ona of tha corner kloka was suo otssful. Offstda play on tha home aide spoiled several promising movements, with tha score sheet blank st half time aa a result. Soon attar change of enda, Tuerck secured the ball 0 yards out, sanding In a ahot well out of reach of the goalkeeper. Further level play fol lowed, the Australians trying hard to equalise matters, to no purpose. As an axhlblUon f how soocer should be played, the game was of lit tie value, mainly on aocount of bad cllmatlo conditions, but also becauae the boya. In their eagerneaa to get the ball, forgot tha flrat elementary rule of the game, namely, to keep to a given poelUon. However, the high achool eleven contained the makings of soma fine soccer players. Maglua has tha daah necessary for a, wing forward.

HERB la ona of tha almost totally forgotten diamond sclnUllant of tha ltot aeaaon, though that period la not ao long ago, either. However, In that season Portland had experimented with so many flrat basemen, some of whom played here a very abort Ume, and one of those was Jack Messerly. "Pullemup" Shaffer, who waa In stalled on the bag In preference to Hal Chase, was hopelessly outclassed In the league, and It proved a hard task to land a man to take hla place. Of all tha first basement used In 1803. "Deacon" Van Buren filled the bill to best advantage. Messerly had been playing great ball for Tacoma. In tha Northwestern League. In 1S0S. and In accordance with the war tacUca of getting player to "Jump," whloh waa followed by 4oth leaguea, Dan Vlgneaux Induced Meassrly to leap the organised fold and Join the fortunea of tha cuUawa In Portland. Messerly had been hitting like a demon and fielding nicely for Ta coma but. like Shaffer, he fell down in the Paclflo Coast League. Messerly played a fairly good fielding game, being a great Improvement over Shaffer, but his batting was miser able. In fact, for a Ume he was listed In the batting order Just above the pitcher, a place which all good first Backers resent. Finally, when tha San Francisco Pa cific NaUonal League team disbanded. In August. Messerly was turned loose and "Horaehead" Elaer, formerly of Butte, waa added to the list of Port land players of that memorable aeason. California Fighter Bested. NEW YORK. Dec. t.

EAST'S EYES NOT OPEN OhloaeTO Player, In Portland for Few Days, Says Major Magnates Should Come Out Hero and See for Themselves. -If some of the big league magnates who aooff at a third major league be ing located on the Paclflo Coast would only take the trouble to visit this territory they would sing another tune." aald Joe Tinker, the famous Chicago shortstop, who Is a Portland visitor Just now. "At the rate this part of the oountry Is growing. It can well support big league baseball, and It will not surprise me in the least to hear of auch a league placed here in tba next two or three yeara. "Bealdea. tha Paclflo Coast League has already demonstrated Itself to be the produoer of more first-class major league material every year than any other minor organlsaUon, which amply JuaUflea tha organlsaUon'a planning to become a big league instead of a minor. "Take Portland, for Instance. It seems like an lnjurtloe to have this club develop so many great players, and then aee a big league team take them away for a mere pittance. The (ana and admirers of these same play ers woud patronise the games well enough here to permit of the magnates paying them the salaries to which they ara entlUed. I have watched the at tendance figures of the Paclflo Coast League for several years past, anil at the rate of Increase It 1s only a mat ter of a year or two when the attend ance will compare quite favorably with most of the big league clubs, aa I fig ure that Chicago, New York, Boston, Philadelphia, St. Louis and Pittsburg will be the only towna to outdraw aeveral of your Paclflo Coast League cltiee In the next four yeara "The trouble with roost of the East ern magnates Is that they do not know conditions In this section, and If they would take the trouble to investigate, they would probably change their views. " a a a During the present week Tinker's time la pretty well taken up with hie monologue atunt at the Empress The ater, but he will have until Friday of next week to visit his many friends In Portland. He has agreed to appear at the Presa Club show at the Helll Theater next Monday night. He will go Wednesday to his ranch at New berg. He contemplates many lmprove menta there the coming Summer. He proposes to bring the entire Tinker family to Portland from Kansas City next Winter. Oregon will be their per manent home. a a a Buddy Ryan and Jesse Garrett, who went duck hunting last Saturday, had no luck, and all the promisee of tooth some morsels for their friends failed to materialize. They are not disheartened, however, and announce that another excursion will be taken in the near future, and thla time, aa Buddy says. "If there are any ducks, we'll get 'em," a Jack Barry writes from Los Angeles that he and Chet Chadbourne are en Joying the Winter at Ocean Park, and that they expect to remain there un til after the first of the year. Barry contemplates coming to Portland at that time, for he has a number of in terests In thla aectlon of tha country which will ba In need of hla attention. Jack Biles, the St. Louis catcher, and Joe Tinker, Chicago's shortstop, extended oondolencee to each other over the outcome of their reapectlve lnter-clty post-aeaaon games. Bliss condoled Tinker over the fact that the Cardinals lost to the Browns. Just as the Cubs fell, before the White Sox. BORItESKE MAY COME HERE Whitman Halfback Mentioned for Lincoln High Coach.

OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, Corvallla Or., Dec 6. (SpeolaL) With the football season past, undergradu ates are discussing prospects for next year. Several things serve to brighten the ouUook for the Agglea. First Is th fact that earn Dolan will hava ehars-a of the team again next year. Considering everything. Dolan haa had a very good first season's reo ord. He has been handicapped the whole year by a badly-balanced sched ule, but despite this and an unusual number of injuries to his promising candidates, he turned out a team which lost only one conference contest, and at the same time he haa started an O. A. C. football system. With but five veterana aa a nucleus he built up a team wonderfully strong on defense that showed good football In all Its contests. Enbertr. the All-Northwestern end. will be lost to the team next year through the four-year rule. Robert son, who took his place throughout tha whole of the Whitman game, and Mo Farlane and Waltera will fill the va cancy. O. aitton. at guard, and Charley Sltton, who substituted for May when the Orange captain waa unable to play In mldseason. are both seniors and will be graduated. There are already sev eral candldatea for their positions. Reynolds and Evendon, at quarter and full, will both be seniors next year and eligible for the team. It aeema probable that one of these two will captain the Aggies In ltll. Captain May and Kellogg will be Juniors next year and both will be on hand for the 112 season. Chris man. Carlson. Moore, Jessup and Shaw are all first-year men and will turn out again. DATE IS SET FOR. BIG SHOOT Portland and Eugene Marksmen to Decide Honors December 18.

Separation of parents is blamed by officers of the Juvenile Court of Mult nomah County, the annual report of which was issued yesterday, for the delinquency of many children brought before that court. Insanity, sickness, Incompetence, cruelty, neglect. Intem perance, immorality and violations of the aohool laws on the part of parents are also mentioned as contributing to the delinquency of children. All through the report It is intimated that an Improvement In the standard of home life would work wonders in pre venting Juvenile delinquency. The report covera the year ending October 81, 1911, and ahowa that 681 children, 878 boya and 168 girls, were brought before the court for varloue offensea Proof that Juvenile Judge Gatens' honor system is working out well Is said to be shown by the fact that only 95 boys and eight girls, who were paroled or whose cases were con tinued pending good behavior, were brought before the court a second time. There was a total of 634 minors dealt with by the Judge. Of this unmber 185, 84 boys and 101 girls, are classed as dependents and the others, 449, as delinquents. Under the head, "Age of Children, the record shows the following: Ten years and under, 161; 11 to 13, in clusive, 185; 14 and 15, 162; 16, 69; 17, 67. The charges against tha children are classified as follows: Burglary, 17; larceny, 162; violation of miscellaneous city ordinances, 19; malicious mischief, 16; smoking cigar ettes, 4; destroying property, 27; as sault and battery, 7; curfew law, 6; poolroom ordinance, 3; violating state laws. Including school law, child labor law, carrying concealed weapons, at tempted holdups, shooting animals and chickens and one boy, and drunken ness, 26; persistent truancy, 42; in corrigibility, 67; Immorality, 18; run ning away from home, and Frazer Home. 20; breaking parole, 4; other causes, 15. Three children are dependents be cause of poverty and 82 because of de sertion of parents. The parents are also held to blame In various ways for the fact that 150 more are classed as dependents. The space devoted to disposition of cases shows that 183 Juveniles were dismissed without other action than warning, the charges against 118 were continued conditionally, 97 were placed more of the new SHIRTS of soft cling ing materials with collars of self materials and colors!!!!
