Eu gene. Dec. 15. (Special.) Efforts were being made today to have the Oregon, eleven leave for Pasadena sooner than Friday. December 19, the date at first set for the departure, but it Is not likely that the team will be able to get away before Thursday, as examinations are being held at school this week end and these prob ably will have to be taken before the team leaves. Efforts were first made to secure a release from term examinations, but this very likely will not be allowed, according to the president's office. Another alternative which was thought likelv was that men could take their examinations after their return from the south, but, according to Karl Onthank, secretary to presi dent P. L. CamDbell. who is at pres ent in Seattle, it is not thought likely that members of the faculty will be very favorable to this action. Onthank believes, however, that as most of the men will be through with the larger portion of their examina tions by Thursday, the team can make arrangements to leave that afternoon and take their examinations later or by private appointment. Huntington for Early Start. Coach "Shy" Huntington, when ap proached about the matter, said that lie hoped to get away as soon as pos sible. "We're going as soon as we can, and with as many men as we can," he said. Graduate Manager McClain has not yet received the contract from the Pasadena committee, and believes that he will not be able to get everything arranged so that the team can leave much before Thursday. The chief objection to remaining in Kugene any longer than possible is the frigid weather, and the snow which covers Klncaid field, making practice difficult. The men are un doubtedly keeping in good condition, but they are not learning very much football. "It was the good condition of the Oregon eleven which defeated Uni versity of Pennsylvania on January 1. 1917, and that may be the chief thing that Oregon will have to offer this New Year's day, is the way one of the old football men expressed it. It is certain that school will not close on account of the cold weather, as all of the classes will be conducted regardless of cold weather. Therefore the hope that had been expressed on the campus during the early part of the week that the eleven might be able to get away early on that ac count is groundless. llesdek Cannot Asabit. Word was received from Hugo Bezdek. stating that he would find it impossible to assist with the coach ing of the varsity team this year, or at any time in the future. A rumor had been circulating about the campus that an effort was being made to secure Bezdek for baseball next spring and for his all-year job next fall. This message, however, puts to rest all such rumors. Oregon sup porters are more than satisfied with the work of "Shy" Huntington and It Is not likely that any further effort will ever be made to secure Bezdek. The Oregon eleven is continuing its nightly snow practice. The men ap pear on the field about the middle of the afternoon and warm up by passing and handling the ball. Later the coaches come out and. the men run through a brisk signal practice, followed often by scrimmage. The team is anxious to get to the south where they can stage real scrimmage and get more into the football spirit. something which is impossible here The present tentative date for the departure of the Oregon team is Thursday, December 18. This gives the lemon-yellow nine good days in which to practice, allowing plenty of time tor travel. SHORTSTOP CROP BUMPER COAST TEAMS WELL SUPPLIED WITH NEAR-FIELDERS. Wes Kingdon Expected to Burn Up Lots in 192 0 C. Graham Wants Harry Wolter. If Billy Orr gets away to the right kind of start with the Sacramento team next spring it appears that not a club in the coast league will do a bit of worrying about the shortstop situation. Every club is looking for new men, but none has yet gone after a shortstop, there being e'ght players of class holding down jobs now. Walter McCredie is predicting that Wes Kingdon, the sensational young ster from Los Angeles, who played in the- shortpatch for the Beavers the latter part of last season, taking part in but 33 games, will be the league's big senation in 1920. Walter has the utmost confidence in Kingdon keep ing up his great fielding of last sea eon and looks for him to begin to pick up with the bludgeon. Kingdon was weak with the stick but showed promise at the rubber. Seattle is apparently confident that French, who held the job last season, will develop into a star and he will be kept at that station. Oakland will stand pat with Sammy Bonne and Vernon is utout in main taining that Johnny Mitchell is the greatest in the league. Bunny Fab rique, of the Angels, is not a star by any means, but he is so good that it would be difficult to replace him. San Francisco will not worry as long as Roy Corhan is on the job. And if Roy is out of the game at any time because of injuries, or for other reasons, an infield switch would put Jimmy Caveney in to guard his ter ritory. ' Salt Lake nhortstopping will again be done by Ernie Johnson, and there is no smarter ballplayer in the circuit han Ernie and few with more speed lid mechanical ability. it has been decided that the Scna- ors will train in their own back lot his year and it practically has been closed for the Seals to do their con ditioning at Stockton.

(Spe cial Correspondence.) Norman Ross, former Portland swimmer and now of the Illinois Athletic club, departed from here today for Australia, where ne is to swim in a number of meets. He plans to return this way In April. 1920. Taking part In the December meet staged in the open-air Y. M. C. A. tank on Wednesday and Thursday nights of this week, Ross set a new world record on the first night for the 200 yards by covering the dis tance in :ut:z and established a new world record for the 440 yards on the second night by going the route in 5:0:3. Duke P. Kahanamoku also took part in the meet, swimming in the century the first night and win ning on the second night, when he took the part of anchor man for the Outrigger Canoe club relay team. As evidence of the fact that Ross was in better form than the Ha waiian, the Moose shattered two world records at the meet, while Kahana moku broke only a Hawaiian tank record for 100 yards; the former rec ord having been held by himself. His time was :55:4 . The duke's perform ance proved nothing. Whether he HART INVITES HARVARD ) GOVERNOR URGES EASTERN ERS TO PLAY AT TACOMA. Football Game With U. of W.

Urgently suggest reconsideration Oregon boxing fans will get their first peep at Tommy Gibbons of St Paul, claimant of the world's light- heavyweight championship, when he steps ten rounds with Jimmy Darcy at the Milwaukie arena tonight. Gibbons is rated as one of the best mittmen in America, having fought the class at his weight to date with out a defeat. There are some who may feel that Gibbons will hava little trouble in defeating the local Roumanian. Those who feel this way are likely to be surprised, for. though it is true the dark-skinned youth does not figure to defeat Gibbons, still he rates well with any of the men nis weight on the coast.

The football committee of the University of Pennsylvania has announced that apologies will be sent to the Swarth- I more. Penn State, University of Pittsburg and Lafayette college teams, against which Walter L Pearce a substitute halfback, played as a member of the Penn team. The statement said that Pearce had ad mitted that he played professional baseball last summer, making him ineligible to be a member of the Pennsylvania football team. Pearce played in the Three-I league part- of last summer and joined the Chicago Nationals in the last month of the season. Pearce reported late for football practice this season and avoided signing the statement of lateur standing, and was over looked because he reported after all other players had signed. Pearce was not permitted to play football after the coaches learned of his pro-fessionalis.il. The committee took no action in the case of Ben Derr, regular mem ber of the eleven, who is alleged to have played professional football this season, because rumors affecting his amateur standing were not admitted by forr nor even proved- to be true advice of his physician.

This is one of the reasons why Pierce-Arrows are so seldom in the second-hand market and are snapped up at good prices when offered for resale. fY':. U 3rP I "7, fry 'A r v No. 23 owned by the Belridge Oil Company of California has served for 8 years under particularly se vere conditions, but shows no evi dence of wear and promises many more years of service. It is used at the company's oil fields near McKittrick, California and hauls long lengths of heavy well casings across the deserts. The rough roads and deep sands put as hard a strain on the mechanism as could well be imagined. The satisfaction that No. 23 gave led to the purchase of two additional Pierce-Arrow trucks for similar work. u n Pay enough to buy a durable truck. Eventually its first cost is divided by the actual number of days the truck runs. A short-lived truck is a liability. WHY PIERCE-ARROW? 1. , Delivers more work in a given time. 2. Loses less time on the job and off the job. 3. Costs less to operate and less to maintain. 4. Lasts longer, depreciates less and commands a higher resale price at all times. 1 CHAS. C.
