THANKSGIVING ENDS
FOOTBALL SEASON
Jntervarsity Games Scheduled
v on Gridirons of Large
Colleges of East.
QUAKERS TO PLAY CORNELL
Carlisle Indians Will Oppose Brown
and Penn State Clashes With
nttsbnrg Armj-.NaTy Teams
Prill for Big Contest.
NEW TORI?. Nov. 2C The old cus
tom of playing the final frame of the
football season on Thanksgiving- day
is Etlll . adhered to by a few of the
ICastern colleges, and as a result sev
eral lntervarsity contests are sched
xiled for tomorrow. The feature game
is the meeting- of Pennsylvania and
Cornell at Franklin field, Philadelphia.
Cornell and Pennsylvania have been
defeated or held to tie games several
times this year.'yet the success of their
season will hinge, to a certain degree,
on the outcome of the final contest of
the schedule. To date, the. annual se
ries have been overwhelmingly in fa
vor of Pennsylvania, for in the 20
Barnes played since 1893 Cornell has
won only one game and tied one. In
1901 the red and white ran up a 23
to 6 story and in 1906 the teams played
a scoreless tie.
As a result of past and present sea
eon showings the Quakers are favored
to continue the snnual triumph over
Cornell, although it is conceded that
the game will be close and hard
fought.
Next In Importance is the contest
between the Carlisle Indians and
Brown at Providence. Brown, with a
team considerably below the standard
et by preceding elevens at the Prov
idence University, is not likely to do
more than hold the red men in reason
able check. Other games scheduled In
the East and South Include Penn State
JMttsburg, at Pittsburg; Franklin and
Marshall - Gettysburg, at Lancaster,
Pa.; Lafayette-Dickinson, at Easton,
Pa.; Holy Cross-Georgetown, at Wash
ington, I. C, and Virginia-North Caro
lina, at Richmond. Va.
ARMY MNETTP STIIiIi IX DOUBT
Only One of West .Point Regulars Out
of Final Practice.
WEST POINT. N. Y.. Nov. 26. Ex
cept for the final signal drill which will
come tomorrow, the Army is ready for
Its big battle on the gridiron with the
Navy on Saturday. The team went
through a snappy signal practice today
In 'secret. All the regulars were in
the lineup except Jones, right guard
Both Herrick and O'Hare were used in
Jones' position. Goodman was tried
lor a while at center, but his poor
passing made a hurry call forMcEwan
necessary. Benedict Hoge, Hodgson,
Hobbs and Jouett were used behind the
line.
Just who Coach Daly will start
against the middies behind the Army
line is unknown. Present indications
point to Hoge, Benedict and Hodgson
as the most likely combination, with
Hobbs, Jouett, Milbern, Lanphiere and
Ford in reserve. Leo Leary. a Har
vard coach, arrived today and worked
with the Army ends.
The Army squad will leave here for
New York at 8:30 Friday morning. They
will practice on the polo grounds in the
afternoon. A large additional party of
coaches arrived today, to assist Daly in
rounding out the team.
The average weight of the team is
178 1-11 pounds. This Is a lighter
team than the Navy's, but Army sup
porters are counting On strategy and
the cadets' flnA work with th fdcwo
pass to battle the middies.

Yale Wonld Hold Annual Harvard
Contest Thanksgiving:.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.. Nov. 26. A pro
posal to have the annual Harvard-Yale
football game played on Thanksgiving
day, . Instead of on the Saturday pre
ceding the holiday, has been communi
cated unofficially to the Harvard foot
ball management. Tne proposition
comes from Yale officials and is said
to have found favor at New Haven.
Princeton meets Harvard and Yale
on Saturdays and Yale has only a week
-between the Princeton and Harvard
games, while the Crimson has a com
paratively easy game between its two
big contests.
A conference of Harvard, Yale and
Princeton managers may be held to
consider this problem.
OVERCOXFIDEXCE NAVY'S FEAR
Academy Team Expects Victory Over
Array Next Saturday.
ANNAPOLIS, Md., Nov. 26. While the
Academy band furnished accompani
ment to the songs that will boom across
the field toward- the Army hosts on Sat
urday, the Navy football team and
scrubs went through the last practice
on the home ground today. The work
was light and there was no scrimmag
ing. Formations which will be used
tor the first time against West Point
were gone through repeatedly.
Confidence in the ability of the team
to win from the Army is manifested
' among the midshipmen and officers. At
the same time every effort is being
made by those In authority to check
overconfldence.

Bud Tells Leach Cross He's
No Real Fighter

Before, Vancouver Boy Pays Re
spects to Winner.
VANCOUVER. Wash.t Nov. 26. (Spe
cial.) When Bud Anderson was in
the hospital at Los Angeles, after being
operated upon for appendicitis, a rfew
days after his battle with Leach Cross,
in which Anderson was knocked out
for five minutes, he had two callers,
one of whom sat down' in a chair by
the bedside. The caller began asking
Bud about the fight and what his opin
ion was. "
"Well, I don't think much of Leach
Cross' punch. He ought to have put
me out in two rounds and I was ex
pecting it every round. If Cross had
been any kind of a fighter he would
have put me to sleep a, long time be
fore he did. I was all doubled up
with pain and should have been oper-j
aiea upun xur appeuujciis mat nigui,
instead of going into a prize ring.
"Cross can't Tint a fellow unless he
has a wide-open chance and then he is
too slow, rambled Bud, telling what
he thought, believing he was speaking
to Monte Attell.
About that time the caller atjthe foot
of the bed called, "Well, Leach, I guess
we'd better be going," and .Leach Cross,
with a grin on his face, got up and the
two left the hospital and Anderson has
not seen Cross since.
"When I found that was Cross I felt
like I was going to drop through the
mattress," said Bud, "but I never said
anything I would not have told him to
his face. I had only seen . him once
before in street clothes and so I
thought he was Attell, whom he resem
bled." RIVERS r-AVORITE-OVER CROSS

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 26. Joe Rivers,

whether James Wray, the Crimson's

when his contract expires next Sum
mer was dismissed today by a state
ment from Captain Reynolds, .of the

to be much lighter than those used
any defender that has yet been turned
out at the Bristol yards. It was stated
that by placing tne supports closer to
gether lighter steel could be used.
The object of this lighter construc
tion, it was stated, was tx obtain an
easily driven hull that would, at the
same time, be sufficiently steady under
a heavy spread of canvas.
-OREGON-
IT TO BUCK BULK
Oregon Is Conceded Chance in
Game With Multnomah.
PUNTS WILL BE FEATURE
Fenton Is Expected to Star Behind
Line for Collegians Old Grads
on Hand for C 0 1 h Annual
Thanksgiving Battle.
( Continued From First Page.)
University of Washington at Seattle
and Idaho tangles with the Oregon
Aggies at Corvallis. The University
should win by two touchdowns and the
same is true of the Oregon Aggies. At
Walla Walla Whitman meets Montana,
but this is not a conference game.
Although Multnomah has a post-sea
son game with Idaho for New Year's
afternoon, today drops the curtain on
the official season of pigskinning in
the Northwest states.
Thus it is that even the most staid
and sober business men of the city,
many or whom haven t seen a game
this Fall, are talking a weird Jargon of
equal parts of football and Turkey din
ner vernacular, and will be on the side
lines today with business cares careful
ly tucked away in the commercial can
yons of the business district.
Business Men Advertise Game.
As if to emphasize their pride in the
closing gridiron classic, a number of
the larger firms have decked their win
dows with displays of the lemon-yellow
of the State University and the crim
son-white of the Winged M institution
The hotels, too, report a heavy influx
of ola grads and club veterans and
these will add the final touches of rep
resentn.tlon at the same.
Aside from its spectacular features
and the personality of the crowd, to
day's 'game is sure to abound in bril
liant football and superb strategy.
On the Multnomah side, the play will
be directed by Quarterback Rodes, for
four years a star of the Naval Academy
eleven at Annapolis and captain last
Fall. Rodes is one of the most re
markable players ever seen in a Mult
nomah Club suit. Not only is he a won
der at advancing the ball, but he keeps
things moving all the time and that
has generally been a failing with the
clubmen.
Rodes Not Only Star.
But Rodes holds no monopoly on the
limelight. He is given this boost be
cause he is new to Portland enthusi
asts. Manager Stott has a whole grist
of. similar satellites mothered under
his wing Philbrook, the famous Olym
pic athlete; Bailey, Convill. Cherry,
Keck, O'Rourke and more.
Oregon's wonderful battle against
Washington showed that Coach Bezdek
has an eleven that would do credit to
almost any. college In the Middle West.
His team will average around 174
pounds, and while that will .be perhaps
IS pounds to the man less than the
club weight, the collegians will have
youth, speed, condition and teamwork
in their favor.
Fenton to Be Big; Factor.
Carl Fenton's punting, too. Is sure
to be a big factor. The Dallas 195
pounder averaged more than 45 yards
a punt against Washington, and as
this is his last game, something sen
sational can be expected of him. Par
sons and Cornell also are much feared
by the Multnomah men.
Captain Keck, an Oregon Aggie ex-
punter of fame, will do the kick work
for Multnomah. "Chief won the 6-0
game from the Oregon Aggies by vir
tue of two field goals.
What may be expected in the way
of a close-fought game is indicated in
a general way by scores of this year
and of preceding Oregon-Multnomah
games.
Early this Fall Multnomah defeated
the Oregon Aggies 6-0 and tied a re
turn game at Corvallis 7-7, being
really outplayed in this latter engage
ment. Multnomah, too, won from
Washington State, 7-0, in a fiercely
contested matinee. Oregon, on the
other hand, tied the Aggies 10-10 at
Albany and is conceded to have a bet
ter team than Washington State Col
lege, for Oregon defeated Idaho 27-0,
which team walloped Washington
State 3-0.
Past Records Favor Clnb.
To emphasize further the balance of
the t'eams, Oregon smothered the
Bremerton sailors 4S-6. yet Multnomah
had a tough afternoon beating these
same tars by a 12-0 tally.
Of former Thanksgiving day clashes
with Oregon, the club has won 13, lost
four and tied two, the compilation

DOBIE'S TEAM FIT FOR FRAY
University of Washington Confident
of Final Victory.
UNIVERSITY OP WASHINGTON. Se
attle. Wash., Nov. 26. (Special.) The
University of Washington football team
is in perfect condition to meet the
Washington State College eleven on
Denny field here Thanksgiving day.
The Pullmanites will arrive in Seattle
Thursday morning and will go directly
to the gymnasium, where they will pre
pare for the game. Coach Dobie is con
fident he has another Northwest Con
ference championship tucked away.
Little fear is expressed as to the out
come of the game; in fact, there is lit
tle interest in the contest. There are
five men who have yet five minutes to
play to win the "W" this year. They
may get a chance in the game Thurs
day. They are Leader, Noble, Gile, Sav
age and Hazlett.
WILLAMETTE FIELD IS HEAVY
University Team Will Average Less
Than 155 Ponnds Today.
WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY, Salem,
Or.. Nov. 26. (Special.) The Willam
ette University football team, minus
the services of Homan, the backfleld
star, will line up tomorrow against
the Oregon Law School team. The locals
will average a little less than 156
ii
pounds and a heavy field will make
heavy plodding for Willamette.-
The Willamette field has been in
the process of additional crowning all
the Fall and, although given a liberal
coat of sawdust, the players sink into
the shavings, since the heavy rains of
the past week.
Willamette will line up as follows:
Pfaff, center; Fariss and Vandervert,
guards; Eckles, Bolt and Neustral, ends;
Tonkilson, Flegel and Broth, quarter;
Doane and Small, halves; Rowland, full
back. The followers of the game here
predict a small score for either team.
IDAHO TEAM IS CONFIDENT
Aggies Will Appeaf Today Against
1 7 2 -Pound Aggregation.
With grim determination stamped
all over their faces, tht University of
Idaho football warriors stopped off
yesterday in Portland for a few hours
en route to Corvallis, where they will
clash with the Oregon Aggies this aft
ernoon. '
Coach Griffith, one of the foxiest in
the business, realizes that he is up
against a great team and, while not
oversanguine of success, hopes to de
feat the Aggies If. he gets the breaks
in luck.
Idaho's team will average around
172 pounds and the Aggies around 176
pounds, which is not enough difference
to materially affect the score.
Coach Griffith thinks he has two
men who are entitled to consideration
by the all-star bugs this Fall Wll
lard Johnson, of Lawrence, Wis., end,
and Lockhart, halfback.
Officials for today's battle will be:
Stanley Borleske, of Spokane: referee;

ing Joe Tinker, is the statement de
clared to be based on good authority,
printed here this morning. Brown is
a member of the team which bought
him from Louisville last year, after he
had been released to that club by the
Chicago Nationals, for whom he pitched
for many seasons. He twirled many
good games for Tinker last season.
Brown never has professed managerial
ambitions so far as is known, but his
friends assert that as a level-headed,
intelligent baseball man who knows the
game thoroughly, he is worthy -of a
trial in Tinker s place.
President Frank Farrell, of the New
York Americans, is strongly desirous of
buying Tinker's release from President
Herrmann, of the Reds, and telegraphed
the Cincinnati president on the subject
yesterday. The Highlanders' president
declared he would outbid any other
magnate for Tinker's services.
"Perhaps we can induce Herrmann to
let Tinker out of the National League."
said President Ban Johnson, of the
American League, who is in this city
and heard Farrell's announcement.
