Portland Center of Football Championship Match in New York Goes Full Ten Rounds to Referee's Decision. Interest in Northwest Con ference Circles. v MANAGERS ON GROUNDS WORLD'S TITLE INVOLVED RITCHIE WINNER gi J 53 Washington-Oregon Contest Expect ed to Be One of Fiercest on Reo ord ; Championship Games to Be Flayed. Throughout Country. BT ROBCOB FAWCETT. Portland this week occupies the cen ter of the football stage In the. Pacific Northwest. With only two undefeated elevens In the field and these two Elated to fight It out for the champion ship Saturday on Multnomah Field, lo cal enthusiasts are decidedly fortunate, These two big rivals are the Uni versities of Oregon and Washington, nnd their graduate managers. Dean Walker, of Eugene, and Ralph A- Horr. of Seattle, arrived in Portland yester day to be on the scene for the prelim inaries. "Coach Dobie was a spectator at the Oregon-Oregon Aggie 10-10 battle at Albany," remarked Manager Horr, "and he says the Aggies played 90 per cent better ball than against Wash ington a fortnight ago. Ilug-o Beade Respected. "I have not seen Oregon in action tills year, but from all reports Hugo Besdek has an eleven that is dangerous at all times. "Washington defeated Oregon last year at Seattle, 80-14, a margin of only two touchdowns, and if Oregon has picked up any this season I see no rea son why the Eugene warriors should not stand a good chance to win the championship. "Of course," added Manager Horr, "we beat the Aggies 47-0 and a great many people will ponder that and take it for granted that Washington is to v.-ln. But the fallacy of comparative scores is illustrated by the Aggies' score against Washington last year. They held us to a lower score than Oregon, yet Oregon defeated them at Albany.' . Saturday's big championship game on Multnomah Field will commence at 2:30 o'clock and tickets were placed on sale yesterday at Spalding's new store on Washington street, opposite the Morgan building. Other Game Attract. Saturday will be productive of three big games in the Northwestern confer ence. Whitman and Idaho are ocheduled to battle Moscow and Washington State and the Oregon Agrgies at Corvallis. Both these games promise to be hum mers. Idaho walloped Washington Slate 3-0 and the Pulmanites defeated Whitman 23-0, so that would seem to give Idaho a secure margin. How ever, the score will doubtless be ex tremely close. Idaho won last year 13-6. So far as the Corvallis game is con cerned. Washington State gave Mult nomah Club a fierce battle here, and Coach Bender's crew is pretty certain to apply another acid test to the pow erful Aggie machine. Multnomah defeated the Aggies 6-0 and then tied them 7-7 In a return engagement and the Winged "M" won frohi Washington State 7-0. All three games were much alike, except that the Aggies had a pronounced "edge" in the 7-7 tie affair. If they play as they did on that momentous occasion at Corvallis or if thev duDlicate their nr. formanco ac-ainat OrpB-nn Dr KtAwni-t'. ' huskies should win. But, if there Is any let-up in the camp of the orange and black look for trouble. Championship Games in East. The East and Middle West Saturday likewise promise stiff competition. At Minneapolis, Minnesota and Chi cago battle for the Big Eight title; at New Haven, Princeton and Yale are carded for their annual clash, and while this big battle is being waged, Michi gan and Pensylvania will be fighting it out at Ann Arbor. This last mentioned game will be interesting because of the strange con test that took place between these two elevens last Fall. It was by far the most sensational recorded in football history, resembling in the main the fierce match of a few days ago between Oregon and the Aggies. Blar Lead Overtaken. Pennsylvania defeated Michigan, but when the game opened it looked like a slaughter for the Quakers. In tha first period ths Wolverines scored two touchdowns and added another in the third, thehalf ending in a score of 21-0 in Michigan's favor. Then the Pennsylvania team opened up an assortment of brilliant passes end runs by Mercer. Minds and Mar shall which scored three touchdowns. But they had failed to kick one goal, which left the score 21-20 in Michigan's favor. With less than a minute to play, Marshall caught one of Michigan's punts at midfield, and, by a brilliant bit of footwork, similar to Johnny Par sons' sensational sprints at Albany Saturday, the fleet-footed Penn star SS0i"ed a touchdown, winning the game 27-21. ti- ' - t , Z 'ytit- k-X- i:-vJ - e 5 ckr JEs 'Z Csy& J rell, chairman of the National Board of Arbitration, the supreme court of minor league baseball, did not arrive tonight and the meeting of the board was postponed until tomorrow. The National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues will convene tomor row. SCHOOL GAME IS POSTPONED Washington High-Colombia Contest to Be Played Thursday. Through the courtesy of the Colum bia University the Columbia-Washington High football game scheduled for tomorrow has been postponed until Thursday. Tha recent Lewis and Clark Washington game put the East Siders In a poor condition, but with an extra day's rest Coach Earl expects his team to be in tip-top shape. Tegart is the only member of the high school eleven who is seriously in jured, having had his ankle twisted in Saturday's -game. In all. probability he win limy pari or me game at tackle. Other members of the team, althuneh bruised and battered, are roundlnir into form fast. Malarkey and Philbin. two of the members of the Columbia University "Quad who have been injured, are in the best of condition again and will be seen In the game Thursday. Botn teams had light workouts last night, with the Peninsula team scheduled for heavy scrimmage tonight The Lincoln-Columbia game, which has been set ahead from November 26. will be played, it is thought, Novemoer 21, the day on which JefTerson High was to have met the Hill Military Acad emy eleven. Because of Hill's with drawal this date is open and it is the only day Multnomah field Is available. The game as originally set ahead to November 22, but Multnomah Club is scheduled to meet the Vancouver sol diers on Multnomah field on that dato. Baseball "Judge" Is Late. COLUMBUS, O, Not. 10. J. H. Far- COACH 'STEWART FEAKS SLUMP Corvallis Football Mentor Preparing for State College Xext Saturday. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, Corvallis, Nov. 10. (Special.) The Oregon Agricultural College and Cor vallis are "football crazy." So con vinced were the O. A. C. rooters that the Beaver team was doomed to meet defeat Saturday, at the hands of Ore gon, that the tie score"is regarded prac tically as a victory for the Orange, and local students are celebrating accord ingly. Corvallis merchants will pre sent each member of the team .with a golj football to be used as a watch charm. Dr. Stewart is happy over the result of Saturday's game, but is fearful over the outcome of the coming game with th AVashington State College team, to bo played at Corvallis next Saturday. Ho believes that if the Beavers play as they did against Oregon, O. A. C. should humble Bender's Pullmanites, but it will be a difficult task to pre vent a slump after the climax attained last week. Everett May, whose sensational work at halfback was a feature of the Al bany game, has been unable to walk since reaching his home Saturday night. He received a bad jolt in the knees dur ing the. first quarter, and although he stayed in the game until the end, he was in bad shape. Laythe, Hofer and Chrisman seem to have suffered no serious effects from the battering they received. "Doc" is especially pleased" with the showing made by Billie and Smythe, the two men who Saturday played their first game of varsity football.- Al though ljillle was "sucked in" on, the play which resulted in Cornell's touch down, his work for the most part was of a high order. Smythe's work at guard branded him as a man who will be a valuable asset to the Beavers in the future. DINNER SEATS SELL Demand for Places at Banquet to Ballplayers Is Large. SITE OF FEAST UNDECIDED CHICAGO FORMATIONS USED Minnesota Varsity Breaks Up Attack of Scrubs, Using Maroon Plays. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.. Nov. 10. In practice at Northrup Field today, the reserves of the Minnesota football squad used the University of Chicago plays against the regulars. The latter were comparatively successful in breaking up the attacks. Shaughnessy, the Gopher fullback, spent a part of the afternoon punting and dropkicklng. All the regulars ex cept Snyder are expected to play against Chicago next Saturday. DUCK FOUND PLENTIFUL SCNDAY COMPENSATES HESTERS FOR LOTS OF" BAD LUCK. Scappoose Mecca for One-Day . Sports men Fnm Portland and Aatorl h Have Snrfett of Game. Duck hunters waited a long time this year to get their Fail shooting, but the sport of Sunday was atonement enough. The hunting was not so good in the upper stretches of the Columbia as it was on the marshes lower down, but no one grumbled. Among the successful Saturday hunt ers were W. L. Morgan, W. S. Dinwid dle and Arthur L. Finley, who hunted Duok Lake on Sauvie's Island. It was the first time in years that Mr. Morgan had been out, but he was still able to acquit himself creditably. The party or four brought back a bag of 40. Scappoose and the neighborhood was the Mecca for many who had only Sun day to devote to the hunt. The Sun day morning train westbound was crowded to the guards when it pulled out of Portland, but when Scappoose was left behind thefe was hardly a gun left on the train. Some of those who went there were C. F. Foster, J. T. , Mathews, H. Gold stone. R. U. Goldstone, W. J. Muir, A. T. Bennett, Jean Garrett and W. H. Allen The best hunting of the day was down the river in the big bay near Tongue point. Here the ducks dropped in droves and the hunters got all the sport tney wanteo. Almost half the population of As toria is eating duck today. There was just enough of a storm at sea to bring the Diras to tne marines. Everybody that had the ambition to carry a gun as far as Warrenton could be assured ol a fair bag. First Plan of Having Board Set as Diamond Has Been Added To and Tables Will Be Put in Out field to Seat 2 00 Diners. Continued demands for seats at the banquet to be tendered the world base ball tourists on November 18 by Port land baseball boosters caused an entire re-arrangement of the seating plans at last night's meeting of the committees at the Hotel Portland. E. S. Higgins, chairman of the ban quet committee, recently outlined a plan to have the tables arranged in the shape of a diamond. The increased de mands first maae the committee decide to add a table in center field, another in left and a third in right. Last night it was decided to put in the players' benches. This will give a seating capacity of more than 200. At that there will be a scramble for plates. Pitcher's box also will have a table in it. This probably will be reserved for some of the dignitaries. Because some of the players' wives have been mentioned as beauties, the committee decided to turn the women of the baseball party over to some of Portland's fanettes. They will have a time all their own on a party which will not cross the path of their hus bands all day. The scene of the banquet is still a mystery. That appeared as a snag in the sailing of the banquet committee composed of Mr. Higgins, Ed Lyons and James Appleby, several days ago when the men decided to have the din ner at the hostelry which was to house the .players. Then it developed that both the Multnomah . and Oregon, through some mistake, had been as sured of their stay. The committee stuck to its decision to have the banquet at the hotel where they are to stay. The decorations were lightly touched in the discussion. However, everything will be particularly "baseball-istic." The walls will be decorated with Port land's baseball pennants, provided Judge McCredie will bring them around, and bats, masks and chest pro tectors will be made the center pieces of various schemes. George L. Baker, toastmaster, will have a rubber home plate to start his sallies from. WILKINS IS DENIED DELAY Alleged Slayer Must Go to Trial Thursday Without Affidavit. The motion of attorneys for Lloyd H. Wilkins, charged with the murder of Lou L. Winters, that the trial be postponed SO days so that depositions of Wilkins' mother, sister and two doc tors at Moro, Wis., might be taken, was denied by Judge Morrow last night, and the case will go to trial Thursday. Affidavits by Lloyd Wilkins and his father, F. L. Wilkins, were filed last week, in support of the motion, setting forth that Wilkins was injured by a blow on the head a number of years ago and that his mother, sister and physicians would testify that since the accident Wilkins has been Irrational at times. li.

Willie Ritchie, lightweight champion of the world, de feated Leach Cross, of this city, in a 10-round bout, wjilcn went the limit at Madison Square Garden tonignt. Xhe men weighed in at S o'clock, both under the stipulated weight of '135 pounds. The ringside weights were an nounced as Ritchie 137)4 and Cross 136V4. With the exception of the first round, which was even, and the eighth, in which Cross had a decided advantage, xiitchie had the honors. Cross Down Twice. In the second, after a. mixup, Ritchie fell backwards on hlB shoulders, over Cross, who was in a stooping position. Though the fall was a heavy one, Kitchie did not seem to be much the worse for it. In the third round Kitchie knocked Cross down twice, each time for the count of nine. The first fall was a right smash on the Jaw, followed by a right half uppercut. After Cross had regained his feet Ritchie rushed him across the ring and put him down again with another rigfit, which was more of a shove than a blow. when Cross got up he caught Kitchie with a hard left hook on the jaw. It almost lifted the champion otf his feet. Cross, rushing again, forced Kitchie to the ropes. ' It looked in this round as if Kitchie would win easily, but Cross was full of fight and his power of recuperation surprised the Western boy, as well as the spectators. FIgntlns Hard and Fast. From the fourth .round to the end of the seventh Cross received most of the punishment, but he kept Kitchie busy and the fighting all through was hard and fast. Cross apparently did not mind the stiff jabs he was receiv ing, contenting himself with waiting to use his deadly right swing. A chance to do so never came. The eighth round was where Cross showed lo the best advantage. He landed lefts and rights to the head and body and also had the oetter of the in fighting. He sho jk It'tchie from heels to head with a left hook to the jaw in this round. Ritchie's showing" was not quite up to the standard of former lightweight champions who have been seen here. But Cross at all times is a puzzling fighter, no matter how good his op ponent may be and tonight be fought with desperation at all stages in en deavoring to win Ritchie's title, which the Westerner had placed at stake in this match. CLUBS' POLICIES CONFUSED Two Irvlngton Organizations Are Not Allied. Confusion of the name of the Irving ton Club with that of the Greater Irv lngton Improvement Club, and the fact that the Improvement Club pays rent to the Irvlngton Club as a place for holding its regular business meetings, has led to misunderstanding of some of the policies of the Irvington Club and evoked from directors of that or ganizatoln a decided expression of their attitude. The Greater Irvington Improvement Club will hold a meeting in the Irving ton Club building tonight at which one of the principal subjects of discussion will be the movement to put a street through Holladay Park. The Irving ton Club Itself is not in sympathy with this movement. "People confuse the two organiza tions continually," said one of the Irvlngton Club directors yesterday. "The Greater Irvlngton Improvement Club is composed chiefly of persons re siding in Holladay Addition, and it pays a monthly rental to the Irvington Club for the privilege of meeting in our clubhouse. W F. Woodward is president of the Irvington Club and H. C. Thompson president of the Greater Irvlngton Improvement Club. Some of the movements advocated -by the Im provement Club are laudable, but the plan ,to put a street through Holladay Park meets with the entire disapproval of the Irvlngton Club, and we are mak ing efforts to prevent the policy being confused with the policies of our own club." LION KEEPER IS SUSPENDED Three Days' Idleness Enforced for Allowing Nero to Escape. As punishment for allowing Nero, the African lion at Washington Park, to escape from his cage Sunday, Charles Herman, animal tender, was suspended from the service yesterday for three days. The suspension was ordered by Park Superintendent Mische, after an investigation which showed that the escape was due to Mr. Herman leaving the door of the cage open. Mr. Mische says the lion happened to get into a place where he could be captured, otherwise he might have made trouble. He has a bad record, having killed two persons before he was secured by Portland. Apparently he has Jiot lost any of his viciousness. FINE RESIDENCE IS BOUGHT M. A. Poppleton Owner of Handsome New House In Irvington. M. A. Poppleton, of 549 East Morri son, secretary of the Portland Seed Company, purchased yesterday from A. R. Rice and J. E. Meehan, for $28,000, the new residence at the corner of East Sixteenth and East Knott streets, in the Irvington district. Mr. Popple ton will occupy the residence. s The building was completed only a short time ago and is one of the finest residences in that section. It is of brick, in the Southern colonial style of architecture. It is finished in South American crotch mahogany and deco rated by hand work In oil. Rowing Club Elects Directors. At a meeting of the members of the Portland Rowing Club, held in the clubrooms last night, the following di rectors were elected for the ensuing year: H. E. Judge, R. C. Hart, Art Al len, Jacques Lets, A. A. Pfaender, Wil liam Patton and H. G. Chickerlng. The directors will elect the officers of the club at a meeting scheduled for next week.. Two years ago, in the dissolution of the old Am erican Tobacco Company by the U. S. Supreme Court, we lost our estab lished brands of Turkish Blend Cigarettes. The success of these brands had clearly shown us that the taste of smokers throughout the nation was turning, to Turkish Blend. We immediately set about to produce a NEW and BETTER Turkish Blend Cigarette. Expe rience had taught us how theTurkish Blend could be Improved. All the knowl edge we had gained in 25 YEARS in the making of Billions of cigarettes, was CONCENTRATED on this NEW Turkish Blend. Our leaf -buyers in Tur key and America were con sulted. These men the greatest leaf -experts in, the world were instruct ed to select the tobaccos that in their judgment were BEST SUITED to such a blend. Our blend-experts then took these carefully se lected tobaccos and FOR MONTHS experimented with a THOUSAND VARI ATIONS of blend. When OMAR was fin ally perfected, we KNEW . that we had absolutely the FINEST Turkish Blend cigarette that could be produced. We were confident that American smokers would CONFIRM our estimation of OMAR--andthey HAVE. OMAR is UNQUESTION ABLY the greatest success, in the SHORTEST PERIOD OF Time, in the history of cigarette making. OMAR 2?

Headed by President Al Baum, the majority of the Pacific Coast baseball men. Including Del Howard, manager of the San J&'rancisco club, who will attend the convention of the National Association of Professional Clubs here, arrived today and will have headquar ters at the Neil House. It was announced tonight that a deal has been completed whereby Bill Leard, second baseman of the Oakland club, has been sold to Manager Hogan, of the Venice club. The purchase price, it was' said, was about? $2060. Significance, it was said, attaches to the arrival from Philadelphia today of Patsy O'Rourke, of the Venice club. Gossip has it that Patsy may land a managerial position in the Western League. If O'Rourke succeeds in get ting the berth, Hogan says he will re lease him. Other deals and changes of import ance in Pacific Coast circles probably will be made known tomorrow. "It isn't like this out home," said Arthur Devlin, of Oakland, in speaking of an eight-inch coat of snow in Co lumbus today. "We were going- with out our coats out there when I left." None -of the Pacific Coast delegation Is strongly in favor of the proposed three-cornered series between the pen nant winners in the Association, Inter national and Coast Leagues.

The six Portland high school boys, members of the Lincoln footba-il team who did not get away with the rest of the team Saturday, left for home at 8:30 tonight on the Spokane, Portland & Seattle train. They had little to say during the day except that they had been telegraphing to members of the school faculty and expected to have funds for their trans portation wired to them. It was late in the day before they got the matter arranged. They admit having been out late, but do not consider their conduct called for disciplining for breaking of training rules. the splendid efforts made by you in co-operation with Tillman Keuter, who won the cup for your state; also to compliment the people of Oregon upon the showing made.
