rRefAra Vultnomah-Seattle came.)
January 1, 1912, proved a sure enough
leap year for Everett May, late captain
of the Oregon Aggies, for when tho 185-
pound Multnomah tacklo hurled Quar
terback Coyle, of tho Seattle All-Stars,
over his own goal line after a local
failure at placement yesterday after
noon he won for tho scarlet and white
one of tho fiercest, most hotly con
tested games eer witnessed in tho
Northwest. It was a veritable "leap
into fame.
Safety Beyond Dispute.
Tho safety, which won tho 2-to-0
Gettysburg for Multnomah on the
winged "M" field, came In the first
quarter and now that the significance
of those two points is realized, there
probably will follow the usual chorus
of debate. May caught the ex-wash
lngton captain on tho two-yard line as
Coylo pounced upon tho bouncing oval
so there can be no justified complaint.
A similar safety won for Princeton
over Harvard In the sensational 8-
battle on Osborne Field on November 4.
On all-around football Multnomah de
served a victory. On only one occasion
did the Seattle satellites threaten the
boundary llne.j Then Coyle tried a
drop kick from the 25-yard line, which
failed. Multnomah, on the other hand,
outrushed tho Northerners, took ad
vantage of numerous fumbles by their
opponents, and got 'within the too
danger zone five different times.
Scnlldmlller Not la Came.
Tom McDonald's All-Stars went Into
the game with a dogged desire to make
up for the 9-to-0 sting dealt out by
Santa Claus Portland on Christmas
day, nor would they admit that their
game was hopeless, for, though they
were minus the services of Scnlldmlller,
all-American end, Multnomah had to
struggle along without tho services of
two stars. Halfback Wolff and Tackle

NEVADA CITT, Cal., Jan. 1. (Spa
clal.) The South Yuba River at Wash
lngton. near this city, was frozen over
yesterday morning, a condition that
has never before existed within the
memory of the oldest inhabitant of
this section. There have been lower
temperatures before, but this Is the
first time the river ever froze up.
It is due to the fact that the stream

enough to sustain the weight of a per
son, and skating was. enjoyed by a
large number.
There was a heavy snowfall over the
greater portion of the county yester
day and today.
