As far away Salt Lake put on the finishing touches to the downfall of the Oaks for the 1915 season, the Reals lost their chance to finish In third place. The locals won their fore noon battle by odds of 10 to 7, and were under the wire for their last ef fort with a 7-to-2 score over the Beav ers. It was a pleasant final for San Fran cisco fans despite the early posting of the Salt Lake score that put the Seals out of the first division. Biff Schaller. the bridegroom, added to the festivities of the occasion, and when the San Francisco squad ad vanced to the plate as Schaller came to bat for the time, and presented their fellow player with a cheet of silver for "himself and the Missus." as Foghorn Murphy so glibly put it, the stands went wild. There were homeruns by this self name Schaller and Southworth, of the Beavers, In the afternoon, with Ed Finney putting the men through their pacee In an hour and 19 minutes and plenty of action. Portland, off to a one lead on Old ham, couldn't withstand the Seals. They battered Rip Hagerman to take the lead In the second, held the Northern ers in steady fashion and finally came with a flash in the seventh and eighth chapters. Schaller landed his homerun In the eighth with Bodie ahead of him, and Jones made the circuit on his own single and a two-eacker for Roy Cor han. Errors and bunched hits by San Francisco brousht about the downfall of Portland in the forenoon. Downs, with a single, and Jones, with a triple, drove in three runs as a starter. In the third there was another triple, er rors by Williams and Ward assisting in piling up the tallying. Erickson pitched good ball right up to the fifth, when the Northerners got Ms range and swatted the lanky Swed ish heaver. Three singles, a walk and Southworth's homer did the Job. 6cores: MorninK -game: Portland J San Francisco BHOAE1 BHO A-E KvansS .512 1 ll Fltz'alrl.r..

OREGON CITY ELEVEN WINS Vancouver Athletic Club Team Is Beaten, 2 1 to 7. OREGON CITT. Or., Oct. 29. (Spe cial.) The Oregon City Athletic Asso ciation today won the first game of the local season, defeating the Van couver Athletic Club. 21 to 7, on Ca nemah field. Vancouver made a touchdown in the first quarter and kicked a goal. In the second quarter Miller, left half for the locals, carried the ball over Vancouver's goal and again in the third quarter Miller recovered the ball from the Clarke County team when an attempted forward pass failed and dashed down the field for a 40-yard gain, the most sensational play of the day. Oregon City made its third touch down in the last quarter. The lineup: Vancouver Oregon City. Gus McDonald. .... -C ....... . Montgomery Harry Smith RG Kellogg Harvey VanIorn ...Lg Burgoyne C.

The "Arc 'Lights" were outweighed by 10 pounds to the man and put up one f the gamest fights ever witnessed In local independent football circles. The Bealls came near scoring several times, but the Overlook team always rallied and saved the game. "Swede" Larson, Weldon Wing.

Warner's Pittsburg Eleven Wades Through Penn. NEW YORK, Oct. 29. Football play, which swept through the gridiron gamut from superlative' to mediocre, and was interspersed. with thrills, marked the week-end games wherever Eastern elevens competed. Still another development of the day's play was the demonstration that no team, however big and powerful, can hope to win from a rival of rea sonable strength with an attack based entirely on the old-school methods of advancing the ball. Varied Attack Needed. In a broad view of Saturday's con tests it will be seen that almost with out exception the team which showed an attack equally divided between line plunging and skirting, coupled with a perfected overhead offense, was the one which emerged the victor. Cornell went down before Harvard by a surprisingly one-sided score. With one of the biggest and most powerful teams that has entered the Cambridge Stadium in many seasons, and with the wagering 5 to 4 in their favor, the Ithaca players failed completely to live up to the expectations of their supporters. Outclassed, both in individual and machine play. Cornell was never In a position where it seriously threatened Harvard. The Cambridge first and second-string men worked with Indi vidual dash and team harmony which was completely lacking In the Ithaca eleven. Hanxhton Machine Powerful. Harvard's aggressiveness and gener alship appeared to take all the snap and strategy out of the visitors earl) in the game. The Crimson showed a Haughton gridiron machine that prom ises to be a worthy rival for both Princeton and Yale later in the season. Next to the Harvard-Cornell game, chief interest centered in the play of Princeton and of Yale, and, while both teams cane through to victory, the showing of the Tigers was not by any means as convincing as that of the Elis. Princeton managed to win from Dartmouth by the margin of four points, but it was due to the prowess of an individual player, as has fre quently been the case in the past. In defeating Washington and Jeffer son decisively. Yale made marked progress. Plttburg Juggrrnaat Wins. The gridiron Juggernaut built up at the University of Pittsburg rolled over Pennsylvania without being seriously threatened at any time. Both the Army and Navy teams found little difficulty in disposing of Villa Nova and Georgia, their oppon ents being hardly in the same gridiron class with the soldiers and sailors. Brown took the strong Rutgers elev en Into camp In impressive fashion. The invasion of the Middle West by Syracuse and Tufts resulted in an even break at the end of the day's play, for, while Michigan .won from the Orange eleven. Illinois fell before the New Englanders. MINNESOTA ELEVEN POWERFUL Wisconsin Only Has Chance Against Gophers, and That Is Not Big. CHICAGO. Oct. 29. Scoring 236 points in its last four games, as com pared with a total of 14 points regis tered by its opponents, the University of Minnesota football eleven appears to be so firmly entrenched in the leaa for the "Big Nine" championship that none of the three other contenders is conceded much of a chance to dis lodge it. Minnesota made its first start in the Western conference race yesterday, burying Iowa under a 67-to-0 score, and eliminating the Hawkeyes from further consideration. The Gophers face Illinois next Saturday and should annex another victory. Wisconsin, by its 30-to-7 triumph over Chicago, killed the last chances the Maroons had of even finishing .close up on the race. Although Wisconsin played a tricky game and is conceded to be better than a year ago. critics believe It will have to play in much improved form to hold Minnesota to a close score. Northwestern ran over the heavy Drake University team, winning, 40 to 6. Cicrrand. one of North western's back- field men. suffered two broken ribs and will be unable to play again this sea son. Illinois won Its first game of the con ference season by downing Purdue, 14 to 7. in a rather loosely played con test. Purdue Is considered hopelessly out of the running. The fact that Indiana scored a touch down on Tufts, the only touchdown registered against the Eastern eleven this season, is held as a triumph for Coach Steihm s players. lor they entered the came with the expectation of being trounced by an overwhelming score. Critics are of the opinion that the Eastern eleven, which had con quered Harvard and held Princeton to a 3-to-0 count, was lucky to get away with a 12-to-10 victory over Indiana. Forward passes played an Important factor In Michigan's 14-to-13 victory over Syracuse. The Wolverines came from behind, when defeat appeared cer tain, and turned the tide In their favor. Notre Dame gave Wabash Its worst defeat in five years. Wabash did not make first down once during the game. MISSOURI MAY BE CONTENDER Nebraska Likely to Have Dispute for Valley Championship. KANSAS CITY. Oct. 29. None of the football games played yesterday had any bearing on the Missouri Valley conference race, but wide interest at tached to the meeting of Missouri and Oklahoma in which Missouri continued its winning streak and afforded ground for belief that the team may be a real contender against Nebraska for premier honors. In the Far Southwest. Texas virtu ally was eliminated from consideration in the state race by losing to Baylor. While Oklahoma's defeat was the third straight for that team this year, the Norman contingent found solace in considering prospect for victory over Kansas next week. Oklahoma defeated both Kansas and Missouri last year. The game at Norman yesterday also seemed to forecast an heroic struggle between Texas and Missouri, the com ing Saturday, the first time those two teams have met since 1907, when Mis souri triumphed. & to 4.

O'Connell. the Portland grappler. will leave Wednesday night for Anaconda. Mont., where he will meet Walter Miller on the mat next Saturday night. These mat stars have met twice be fore,. both times in Portland. ' In their first meeting at the middleweight limit last February Miller won two falls in something like an hour and 40 minutes. They met later at 148 pounds and tussled for two hours without a fall "The match at Anaconda next Sat urday night Is an important one for mo," said Eddie last night. "I believe that I can beat Miller at any weight. Last February when 1 met him I had a bad cold, although I said nothing of it at the time. Some of my friends know it and they think as I do that I can-defeat the middleweight cham pion. "I'm strong now and a few pounds heavier than last season. I have been roughing it in Alaska, and will tear into Miller for revenge." Arrow COLLARS GO WELL WITH BOW OR FOUR-IN-HAND IS eta. each, 6 for 90 cts. CLUETT, PEABOOY trCOi INC-AVtKt$ Where Are My Children????? Belief Expressed Seattle Will Send Mighty Eleven to Eugene This Weeki With Coast-Northwest Titles at Stake. BY ROSCOB FAWCETT. If there Is anything In comparative scores, the University of Washington and the Washington State College foot ball teams are as strong as they were last Fall. This surmise is offered in the face of the loss of Han Miller and Shlel by Washington and the defeat of the Pullmanites by the Oregon Aggies early in the Fall. Washington's win over Whitman. 37-6, was a crushing defeat to a team that had Just walloped Idaho, and Idaho, ft must be remembered, held the Oregon Aggies to a 26-0 total. So far as concerns the status and strength of Washington State, this eleven de feated Montana by a trifle bigger mar gin than last year, and yet Montana is stronger and bigger than ever. Montana Power Evident. This deduction can be drawn from the fact that Southern Dakota de feated Montana last Fall and Montana turned the tables this Fall. Montana. too. defeated Gonzaga something like 16-0 the same Gonzaga team that triumphed over Idaho by about the same lop-sided Integers. The Injury to Halfback Gardner, of Washington, will cripple the Purple to some extent, but the boys down at Eu gene need not throw out their shirt fronts. Dobie will bring a team for Saturday's fracas that will be well worthy the uniforms they wear. it is an even wager, and anybody who gives more than that ought to have his cranium sent to an alienist. The defeat of the University of Cali fornia by Occidental College puts the flual crusher on the setting for the Washington vs. California games next month. The first game will be played at Berkeley on ' November 18 and the second as a Thanksgiving-day attrac tion at Seattle. Thanksgiving; Feature Spoiled. After Washington has given the Californlans a healthy massacreing at the Berkeley oval it is going to take some clever press work to attract any body to the turkey-afternoon affair. The only way Manager Younger wii be able to do it will be to point to that 13-7 game last Fall to the limit and shriek "Wolf!" "Wolf!" all around the shores of Puget Sound. As a real Thanksgiving feature, the game appears to be very much of a bloomer. The season is much too young to at tempt to forecast winners In either the Coast or the Northwest College con ferences. Games this week ought to give the dopesters a fairly accurate line. If the Oregon Aggies fail to go more than 40 points against Whitman, and if Oregon beats Washington, you can jot down in your notebook that the college chaps down Eugene way will be singing their boola boolas to a couple of conference championship pen nants. But the dope may be badly spilled ere another Sunday morn. SEMI-FINALS REACHED MrGII.L, DICK, FAWCETT AND KEATS YET IN GOLF PLAY.
