' OPEN STYLE PUZZLES CLUB J.o.ss of J-icft Tackle and Fumbles in Last Quarter Are Costly to Vis itors Collegians Ahead Until Final Period. Great Hart S of lies BY ROSCOE FAWCETT. Although the university of Idaho football squad lost to the Multnomah Club, !0-9, in the New Year's battle on Winged M field yesterday, the Ucm-Staters played the greatest grid iron spectacle of the fiscal year be fore 1-00 fans. Likewise, they almost administered to Multnomah the long delayed licking. Using the famous Idaho spread for mation at the start of the second half, the visitors simply smothered the be wildered clubmen beneath a shower of forward and delayed passes, mixed in with other varieties in the category of the open game. The third quarter ended with the score 9 to 7 in favor of Idaho. Multnomah has not been beaten for three years and It began to look as though Coach Griffith's march back to Moscow would be freighted with considerable more glory than that which attended the more historic hike of one Napoleon -Bonaparte. Injury nnd Fumble Costly. But the loss of Phillips, left tackle, through an injury to his ankle, cou pled with costly fumbles by Idaho, liroved the undoing of the visitors. Multnomah, too, got together In the final quarter and as a consequence the clubbers simply battered the tired collegians Into a pulp. Two touchdowns the clubmen shoved across In 15 minutes of play. Toward the close of the third quar ter a 20-yard run by Francis had an chored the pigskin on Idaho's 20-yard line, and it did not take the clubmen long to hammer through to tho goal line in the final period. Francis and Keck were going great guns at this stage. Likewise Rupert, Philbrook and Convill. On I'hilbrook's next klckoff Idaho's right guard fumbled and Strieblg, demon end, recovered for Multnomah on Idaho's 25-yard line. Again the remorseless veterans took up their ir resistible march goalward. Francis scored the final touchdown, giving him a record of three for the day. Captain Keck kicked two goals in the three attempts. Gronlner Features at Tackle. The story would not be complete without braizing a few detailed boosts tot the Idaho play in the second and third periods. Groniger, big right tackle, proved a bearcat in disguise. He tore through the scarlet and white left wing at will, demoralized the club attack on that side, blocked one kicks and otherwise disported himself like a ' star in his first game at tackle. Ross and Lockhart, in the Idaho backtield, also shone brilliantly. Ross replaced Lockhart in the second half and it was this Caldwell phenom who scored Idaho's touchdown, skirting Multnomah's right end for a 25-yard dasli. The play was an odd one. Quarter back Purdy had signalled for a straight buck on a fake kick formation, Ross to carry the ball. But the quick witted halfback saw an opening on the wing and, instead of plunging into in evitable capture, swerved suddenly Into the open and, before the astonished fans could collect their scattered wits, h0 had the ball planted behind the club's goalposts. Run Puts Idaho Ik Lead. Ross' sensational run put Idaho ahead, 9-7, Lockhart previously having booted a goal from placement from out around the 30-yard line after Multno mah's fumble of one of Buck Phillips' punts. Little wonder Manager Stott, of the Multnomah Club, began to breathe in short pants. It was a desperate sit uation for the Winged "M." And, who knows but that it was a fortunate mat ter for the club that Idaho came down weakened by the absence of its star end, Jack Johnson, and of Right Tackle Kinneson and one or two other regu lars? The crowd yesterday wasn't up to ex pectations and the club lost money, but it's a safe bet that if Idaho ever re turns the grandstand will be taxed to its capacity. There was aomeUjing on tap every minute, few penalties and no wrang ling at all, and, while the ground was wet, the sawdust gave fairly firm un derfooting. Game Called Best Ever. "Best game I have seen in years," commented Chester G. Murphy, famous Stanford and club athlete, after the battle- And he voiced the sentiments of the crowd. The score by quarters follows: 1 2 3 4 Tot. t'nlverslty of Idaho 0 3 0 0 9 Multnomah Club 7 O O 13 20 Multnomah's touchdown in the first quarter was the result of a succession of steady bucks and smashing end runs. When the club sent a man around end it seemed as though there were seven or eight men in the interference. Our idea of nothing to be happy about would be playing end against the club. Clyde Rupert, the 200-pounder re- plevined to till Rodes" niche at quarter. performed brilliantly. Clyde used to call signals years ago before he settled on the line, and he showed experience in his every maneuver. Club's Line Plays Well. McRae, Strlebig and the entire Mult nomah line performed well after final ly getting under full steam. Captain Favre, of Idaho, also did valiant serv ice, along with Phillips and Groniger, tackles. Bailey, of Multnomah, as as usual, was a tower of strength. Idaho left last night for home. The lineup: M. A. C Poaltlon. TTniv. of Idaho. Strteblg L. E R T.

I think we did. Multnomah treated us royally and everything In connection with the game was very satisfactory," said Coach Griffith last night Just before stepping on a train.

He took turns with Hitzel, who also featured. Bailey, at tackle, had little chance to show distinction this season until to day. The fumble he recovered was a piece of fast work. Rogers, of the Winged M, scored some good tackles. McRae and Strieblg' made a pretty good set of ends. Captain Favre, of Idaho, was one of the ' men who com plimented the work of Strlebig. Idaho had two tierlougns in ine game and a third on the sidelines. Phillips, Injured in the third Quarter, showed gameness. His shin was In bad condition but he was ready to go on.

DECISIONS ARE C0MTESTED Police Prevent Free-for-AU Fight When Visiting Player Attempts , to Steal Ball Frequent Injuries Delay Game. VANCOUVER, Wash.. Jan. 1. (Spe cial.) By defeating The Dalles 13 to 6, in a fierce game here today, St. James Club football team - won undisputed championship of club teams of the Columbia River basin. St. James has been defeated only once during the season. The game was called at 3 o'clock on Franklin Field. The gridiron was soggy, wet and slippery. After the first two downs not a player had a dry thread on his body. Play was slow, but so fiercely did opposing teams con test every yard that time was taken out for injuries after almost every play Young Lackaff and Eddie Clarke were sent to the sidelines in the first few minutes of play. The Dalles scored the first touch down In the first few minutes of play when a St. James player fumbled the ball on the goal line and it was re covered by E. Elton for six points. Goal kick failed. In the second pe riod St. James gained strength, wearied the lighter visitors and carried the ball over for a touchdown. On an at tempt to kick goal the ball struck the crossbar and went under. The score was tied at the opening of the last period, when Altdoerffer, for St. James, carried the ball over for the second touchdown, and goal was kicked. St. James' two star forward passers. Altdoerffer and Donaldson, won ap plause repeatedly by the clever manner in which they advanced the slippery pigskin. Donaldson, running towards The Dalles' goal in one pass-play, pulled the ball down out of the air and made a 20-yard run before he was tackled. Wellman, the little left guard of St. James", made spectacular tackles fre quently, and was able to get the man with the ball when a heavier man sank deep in the mud. Bumholt, at right tackle, was a tower of strength' to St. James, and he could always be counted on for a gain through the line. Moore, for The Dalles, played a good game, and Elton at quarter, also shone. Moore was a better punter than Clark and Altdoffer; but the ball was in The Dalles territory most of the game and St. James was within 25 yards -of a third touchdown wben the whistle blew. Darkness was falling as the contest ended. . The game was rough, and when St. James scored the second touchdown, a visiting player tried to steal the ball. Police prevented a free-for-all fight. Decisions of the referee frequently were disputed., . - . . The lineup: ' " St James The Dalles McDonald f Wolf Llapple ......... Tt O Groenwald A. Wellman o Crofton Hunter ..........

Ability of Multnomah to Become More Aroused With, Each Attack of Visitors In Contest. BY DR. G. J. SWEETLAND, JR. (Athletic Director Willamette University.) The Multnomah-Idaho game was especially good and pleasing to anyone interested in football. The footing on the field was surprisingly good, per mitting a good deal of open work by both teams. The Idaho team showed the effects of superior coaching, playing fast, ag gressive ball and were heavier than I expected to see. The Idaho interfer ence on end runs was one of the feat ures of their play. Their line worked well on defense, fighting the clubmen hard. The club team showed that they had the punch, or whatever you care to call It, to come through when they had to. The harder Idaho fought, the more it aroused the clubmen, and near the close of the game the home team had things much easier than ear lier. Every man on the Multnomah team is a star and played a stellar game. The club has a great team physically and .mentally, too, when It comes to football brains. To the . writer the work of Rupert, at quarter, when one considers the fact that he Uoes not make a specialty of this position, was excellent. Multnomah plays a game that is clean and fast, one marked by very little in the way of penalties under the strict officiating of yesterday's contest. were victims of engine trouble and muddy roads. The winner of the race was to receive 100, but as the directors of the race were unable to decide who won, the money may be divided between the three high contestants. Checkers had not sent in their reports last night and the "decision on awards will not be made until today. Motorcycle Records Full. PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 1. Erwln G.

FOOTBALL SEA SOX IS CLOSED Defeat of Idaho Gives Multnomah Clear Record of Three Years. The victory of Multnomah Club over the University of Idaho yesterday was the last game of football in the North west for this season. It marked the third year through which Multnomah sailed without meeting defeat. In that time Multnomah had some close calls, but the recuperative power of the team pulled it out of the pinches. One of these was the game with the Oregon Agricultural College at Cor vallis at the start of this season. The Aggies had the game, 7 to 0, and Multnomah seemed beaten, when the tide turned and Multnomah pulled out of the mess with a tie. Last year the Washington Athletic Club had the best of Multnomah in the firsi half played at Seattle until Mult nomah bucked up and beat the Seattle team, 15 to 6. A week later last New Year's the two battled again, neither scoring.
