Hill Military academy yesterday on Mult nomah field. The breaks of the game were three, two going- to the Benson eleven and one to Hill, with the re sult the Mechanics won, 21 to 14. The first score, which was made by Hill and which could not be called luck, but rather attributed to football strategy on the part of the Cadets, came shortly after the start of the game. It was the ancient "dead man trick," revised and brought up to date, that gave the Hill team its first score. Af ter Bobby Robinson had returned a punt to Benson's 25-yard line, the Hill center flopped on the ground, apparently out. but near enough to the ball so that he could reach it. The Cadets lined up and the center from his reclining position on the sawdust snapped the ball. The play worked because Benson was caught flatfooted and Robinson, carrying the ball, tore around left end for a touch down. Captain Heyden converted the goal. The trick play had a noticeable ef fect on the Benson players; -for they tore into the Cadets for the remainder of the period, working the ball by line plunges and offtackle bucks from the center of the field to the Hill 10-yard line. Maloney Makes Tonchdown. At the start of the second quarter Maloney broke away from the Hill first line defense, carrying the ball across the goal line on a 10-yard end run. Captain Colt kicked goal. The first break of the game came shortly after Benson's first score, when Hill started an aerial attack which proved the Cadets' downfall. On the second attempted pass by Hill Right End Barber of Benson inter cepted the ball and. with a clear field, raced 30 yards to a touchdown. Colt made the count 14 to 7 by kicking goal.' Barber again came Into prominence before the end of the first half by breaking the Cadets' first line of de fense where he picked up a fumble In the ' center of the field. In the race for a touchdown he outdistanced the Hill safety and carried the ball over. Captain Colt kicked goal. Breaks Favor Hill. The breaks favored Hill in the sec ond half but not to the extent that the Cadetswere able to tie the score. The third quarter found the teams battling to a standstill with the ball first in Benson's territory and then in Hill's. Both teams resorted to punting with Robinson for Hill and Captain Colt for Benson staging a pretty duel. In the fourth period the Benson safety let one of Robinson's punts get away from him. Dewey, Hill's right end, came tearing down the field, gathered in the ball and ran 87 yards before he was downed on Benson's five-yard line. An offside penalty placed on Benson on the next play gave Hill a couple of yards more. After tiiree attempts to -ash the Benson stone wall, Robinson squirmed through center for a touchdown. Cap tain Heyden kicked goaL Scrimmage Is. See-Sawed. For the rest of the game the scrim mage see-sawed back and forth across the center of the field with Hill try ing desperately for a score by the overhead route. Coach Phil'brook of the Benson team was evidently trymg out several combinations, for he . made several switches in his lineup. Barber, Fal lis, Maloney and Cap-tain Colt re mained in the lineup long enough to show up exceptionally well.. For Hill, Captain Heyden, Dewey, Goodrich and Robinson played in the limelight.

ABERDEEN TO PIAY CHEHALIS Fast Game Expected When Crack - Elevens Meet Saturday. CHEHALIS, "Wash., Nov. 2. (Spe cial.) Chehalis high school football team, which has an unbroken record of-victories to its credit and has not been scored against this season, will play Aberdeen high school team at Millett field, Chehalis, next Saturday. vhe game is expected to be of un usual interest, owing to the fact that Aberdeen Is rated as one of the strongest elevens in the southwest. Recently Chehalis defeated Montesano at Chehalis by a score of 13 to 0. In. turn Montesano and Aberdeen played a 13-to-13 tie game which they will play off. idontesano was the strongest team faced by the Chehalis boys. The Chehalis football committee r.amed by the Citizens' club plans to get a big attendance of the 'business and professional men Saturday to root for the home club. Chehalis will play Vancouver, which is the fastest eleven in the Columbia r'ver 6ect'crf, cr. Armistice day. This game will be played at Vancouver. ' Crook County High Is Victor.

GREGORY. WHAT'S coming over the football coaches on the Pacific coast? Hardly one "bear story" of the old-time type has emerged from a university campus this season, though goodness knows there has been more cause for them, so far as the north western, elevens are converned, than In many a year before. Even the University of "Washington, which used to think it couldn't play a game unless the scoring market had been beared and the student body Im mersed in gloom for a couple of weeks beforehand, has kept off the bear stuff. The other day after the varsity had absorbed two wrenching defeats in a row, the story actually came over the wire that with its full lineup at last back in the game, Washington expected to be a real contender from now on. Oregon Agricultural college before all its games this year has displayed similar contempt for established tra dition. When the team journeyed to Seattle recently to play the University of Washington, the statement actual ly was made that though it might not win, the other eleven would have to play like wild men to beat it. And at the University of Oregon, where Shy Huntington has been having his trou bles whipping a green squad into shape, the same remarkable optimism has prevailed. All of TChich is unthinkable and strictly against the rules of Hoyle,. as laid down by that great exemplar of bearism, Gilmour Dobie. The influ ence of Dobie in Pacific coast football really must be waning. ' : Dobie was the originator of the bear story as applied to football in these parts. This jaunt and cheerless coach left all hope behind as he en tered a season. He would solemnly aver that at last the inevitable had come to pass there were no good players left, the team was a joke, it would be lucky not to lose 100 to 0 to every opponent. The peculiar part of it is that Dobie solemnly believed every croak he ut tered. He made. a religion of football, and the bear was his god. But he was anything but a pessimist of the fatalistic type. He imbued his elevens with his own spirit of striving and fighting to the bitter end against in evitable defeat, whereat they went in and wiped up the field with the op position In a fervent attempt to stave off being licked themselves. In sheer self-defense at first, other coaches adopted Dobie's bear tactics. To read the pre-game statements of the coaches in those days, it seemed an utter impossibility for either eleven to win. The only hope was that the boys wouldn't fall, dead on the field and disgrace the college. Then sending out bear stories be came a fashion, a fetich, a supersti tion, a tradition. In the best football circles of those days, no coach felt he could afford to miss a chance to throw cold water all over the field s' Back at Cornell Dobie is flooding the east now with bear stories as he used to flood the west. What a familiar sound has this extract from the pen of Davis J. Walsh in the New York World: "Whatever may "be said pro and con on the peculiar. eabeet of Gil- our Dobie, it is fast 1 becoming a prevalent conviction that he is no total stranger to the science of team development in football. Call him a misanthropist, . if . you must; a party who looks at the rainbow and sees only a color scheme running strongly to very dark black. But every one to his. own taste. Every man has an idiosyncrasy roam ing at large in the family closet, and perhaps pessimism is Mr. Dobie's. At any rate, as long as he turns out winning football teams one can well pardon the method just so Mr. Dobie refrairrs from rushing out, ever and anon, to gnaw at a convenient goal post. "He has been turning out winning football teams as far back as the ret rospective eye can reach. First it was in the middle west, then it was with a blare of trumpets that he came on to reclaim the Navy from the fell influence of the then departed Oli phant. www "Now v find him casting gloom all over Cornell, campus, radiating dark brown forebodings as he goes. And meantime winning where Cornell coaches of the past two years were unable to get a tie score. "Whether Mr. Dobie really believes himself or not matters little. It is his privilege to adhere to the alleged theory that a good football player never lived. According to his idea, they are all pitifully inadequate at best and most of the time they are at their worst. Further, he takes no pains to conceal his emotions on the subject. "Therefore, it Is not surprising that HA.4Ltf TV.i He was noted He wooL-O ewU G've M H.S Lw.sn TiPS lb The Hat SOY a . VAJM-T-&R.S TsaJO BiTj "TIP J Go BOY VODRJEUf J i ( K SvJU. HAT f Ai-t.

Dobie teams are inclined to run out on the field with blood in the eye and a cold, dispassionate maline toward the world in general. It may be the answer to Dobie's success this sys tematic skulduggery of every human element within reach - of his voice. Certainly, it has no palpable effect on the other team, which has come to regard Mr. Dobie and. his prophecies of evil with a tolerant eye." This is Coach Andy Smith's meal ticket year at the University of Cali fornia. It's 'very well understood on the Berkeley campus that unless Andy produces a championship eleven this season, there will be nothing doing when it comes to renewing his contract. And by championship the Californians have very clearly in mind that the team must be so in dubitably a champion that it will be selected to defend the west against the east at Pasadena. y Andy Smith barely got by' at Cali fornia last season. There was a hard fight against him in the university board of control ,and it was only by dint of the hardest ' efforts of his friends that he finally was given one more chance. The only thing that saved him was that California man aged to defeat its ancient rival. Stan ford, 14 to 10, in their annual Thanksgiving-day game. Even this victory was to a great extent a Stanford win, for before the game all the wise boys were picking. California by at least 27 to 0.- But Smith unquestionably at last has a real eleven for the var sity this year, though much of the credit for the showing of the line is given by the players to Rosenthal, their line coach. In Andy Smith's behalf, it must be said that he went up against a hard, hard game when he became Califor nia's coach four seasons ago. He had only Rugby material to work on. and it's simply impossible to develop a winning eleven at American foot ball in the first or second year of transition from Rugby. In Califor nia's case it has taken four seasons really to get the Rugby influence out of its system. It's out now, and Rugby is played no more on the Cali fornia campus, though at Stanford it is still liked so well as to rank as a major sport. Stanford is not likely to have a really great American foot ball team until Rugby goes. The football eleven of the Mult nomah Amateur Athletic club .will tangle on Multnomah field next Sat urday with the team of Gon zaara uni versity of Spokane. These Gonzaga college boys have not the heaviest material in the world to draw from, but they always turn out an eleven noted for its gameness and fight. If the field . is dry Saturday they may be expected to open tip and show something in forward passing, for they have been coached a lot in that style of play. Gonzaga college always goes into the season under the pecular handi cap of having no other team its size near enough at hand for games. So either it must be content with top ping off'high school elevens, or must take on the big college elevens. It speaks highly for the gameness ofsthe college that it does the latter. Among its games this season has been one with Washington state college, now regarded as the Northwest's only hope against University of California. This custom of playing teams con siderably larger than itself has made the Gonaaga players a self-reliant lot. They have had to develop the open game to get by, and are said to be highly skilled in that form of foot ball. This will be Multnomah's fourth game of the season, but only its sec ond combat on Multnomah field, Har ry Dorman, the team's aggressive manager, will be on hand personally to handle his men this time, and em phasizes that there will be no repe tition of the "ragging" tactics and long arguments that marred the game a week . ago with Willamette uni versity. A story going the rounds that the McCredit-s have given a 30-day option on the Portland baseball franchise to Clyde Wares, manager of the Seattle coast league club this season, is de nied both by Walter and Judge 'Mc Credie. "Nothing to it," emphasized the judge. "Wares has no option whatsoever. He has made a few nib bles for the franchise, but so far his negotiations have stopped right there." Several weeks ago news dispatches carried word of a "strike" of several players of the Centralia high school football team because one .of their number had been suspended by the coach for violating a rule against profanity. These players put the right to say "damm" on a higher ped estal than loyalty to their tea'm and AND THEN HE quit it at the height of the season. As they constituted most of the eleven, seven regulars in all being on the dis affected list, Centralia's chances of a winning eleven for the remainder of the season .were made just about nil. However, the football squad gamely, decided to go ahead and-tom-plete its schedule. A dispatch from Centralia brought-word yesterday that the Centralia team, with seven second-string' players replacing the seven regulars who quit, had been de feated by Puyallup high school. 40 to 0. With our own high school days in mind, we can imagine how hard such a blow must have been to the pride of the Centralia students. But let it be said that in their defeat the players who gamely stuck it through won a greater victory than if, the T i t. s.w; t - iu t Joe Gorman, who meets Jack t Davis, at Milwaukle arena to j niglt. score had been reversed. Loyalty to the team is the first principle a play er must learn. . . - FIGHT IS TEAM NEED WASBCIXGTOX PREPARES FOR STAXFORD COXTEST. Johnny Wilson Has Edge on Abel for Quarter on Sun Dodger Eleven. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON, Nov. 2. (Special.) Whether or not Coach Allison can develop a winning team for his last conference, game at home on Saturday with Stanford is problematical and depends largely on his ability to produce more fight in the Washington eleven. - The varsity squad won an indiffer ent exhibition of football from the frosh Saturday afternoon, 20-6. Allison's backfield shows all the promise of a first-class combination, but failed, to deliver against the yearlings. Individual playing was al ternately ragged and spectacular. Johnny Wilson seems to have the edge on Abel for generalship and ability and -will probably start at quarter against the Cards. His punt ing is better than Harper's has been lately and as a ground gainer he is the equal of any Washington back. t Captain Faulk will be in the game at his old ' position at end against Stanford, according to reports. His presence will undoubtedly be a big factor against the southerners. Abel is showing up better at end than he did at quarter and may be switched to the other wing. Porep, Rogge and Peterson are substituting at end. "Cruni" Dailey, halfback and end, is on the sick list at present. He is not seriously ill but may be out of the game for several days. Second Team loses Game. CENTRALIA. Wash.. Nov. 2. (Spe cial.)

OAKLANDER IS SLUGGER Ole Anderson Arrives From Ta coma Bubbling With "Wim and Winegar" to Sleet Cross. " BY DICK SHARP. Joe Gorman expects to continue his drive to the top of the ladder of pu gilistic fame in his ten-round bout against Jack Davis of Oakland in the wind-up of tonigl t's flstio card at the Milwaukie arena, Joe is in fine condition after more than a week of diligent, work . on the road and in the gymnasium. When right. Gorman is one of the hardest little ringmen in the world to beat, and he appears to be right at' this writing. Davis is a Blugger, pure and simple, although his build is more adapted to a boxer than a fighter. If he can hit as hard as advance notices credit him, he can be labeled rs one of the freaks of the ring. Davis is not a stranger to Gorman nor Joe to Davis. Two Have Met Before. About six months ago the two were opponents in the squared circe. The distance was four rounds and the battle-ground Oakland. Ia the heat of the fray Davis clipped Gorman a clout on the chin and down Joe went for the first time in his busy career. Gorman did not remain on the can vas long, jumping ri -t up again, but he had tasted of Davis' fire, and since that time has-harbored a de sire to get Jack into the ring again and f possible over the ten-r-und route.. Hs desire has been realized and he can now step out and atone for the unkindest cut of all he to-K on the chin from Davis. Ole Anderson, the battling Tacoma heavyweight, arrived last night bub bling over with "wim and winegar" and will step in the ring tonight to make short work of Leo Cross. Anderson has not fought for several months, but has been training regu larly, and says that he is in great condition to put up a slashing ten round go. ., Cross Is Fast Mixer. . Portland fans have heard so much about the popular young Tacoma heavyweight, who handed fat Willie Meehan a lacing and held his own with Bill Brennan, Gene Tunney and others, that they are anxious to see him in action. Cross is a fast, clever mixer, and figures to make Anderson extend himself. Leo cannot see where Anderson rates to -be a favorite over him in tonight's battle and promises to make the going highly interesting for the Tacoma boy. - Anderson said that he will not weigh more than 180 pounds in the ring and perhaps as low as 178 pounds. Cross should h" between 168 and 170. Jack Fahie weighed Jimmy Darcy in with his clothes on yesterday after J'nrmy's woikout and the scales just shivered 170 pounds. Thiw proves that Darcy 1j a real middleweight, so after all will not outweigh Kid Palmer more than a pound or two. Palmer ts said to be a natural ten round fighter, and several who .have seen him in action in the south pre dict that he will give Darcy a tough fight. Roy Sutherland, Los Angeles light weight, and Al Nelson of 3oi-ia will box four rounds in the curtain raiser. Allie Nack, the New York light weight, who fought around here last season, meeting Puggy Morton and Frankie Murphy, is back in New York and has two fights billed for this month. Allie is scheduled to meet Joe Benjamin, the lanky Portland lightweight, over the 15-round route in New York November 9, and on No vember 21 is down to tackle Pete Hartley, ten rounds in Boston. Nack and Benjamin fought four rounds in San Francisco last year, Joe being . awarded the decision. If he can beat Nack in four rounds he ought to be able to turn the trick over again in IS. Benjamin is also slated to box No vember 12 at Camden, N. J. His op ponent will be Ralph Brady, the New England champion. Joe will leave for Portland the day after the bout. There is a possibility of him even calling the match off in order to get JACK DAV S TONIGH here In plenty of time to train for his ten-round go against H. -Ty benuman at the Milwaukie arena November 24.

The Medford high school which last week was suspended from the State High School Athletic association was reinstated by the board of control of the association at a meeting held here today. The Medford high school was sus pended from the athletic association following a protest filed by the Kla math Falls high school to the effect that the former school, in a football game played on October 8, allowed men in its lineup who were ineligible to participate in the contest because they were over age. Aubrey G. Smith, superintendent of the Medford schools, and C. B. Klum, athletic director,, admitted the irregu larities charged by the Klamath Falls high school officials. Under the decision Medford will for feit the game in dispute to Klamath Falls, but will not be prevented from continuing its athletic activities. The board is composed of A, C. Strange, Astoria; J.

University of Nebraska's heavy football team in vaded the polo grounds today and defeated Rutgers college eleven, 28 to 0. Graduates of the western in stitution in the east turned out in force and rooted for the cornhuskers. Nebraska started with a rush and in a few minutes of play had the ball on Rutgers' one-yard line, where they held for downs. This was the only time the New Jersey team was able Uo hold the plunging Nebraska backs. Nebraska scored fwo touchdowns in the second quarter. The first was by Hartley, who plowed through Rut gers' forwards from the five-yard line. The second was made by Swan son, who sprinted 15' yards with Huback's forward pass. In the third period Rutgers showed new life and made several long gains through the Nebraska line, but the westerners tightened up and recovered a fumble which started them down the field for their third touchdown. The score was made by Moore, who plunged through, the line from the three-yard line. Nebraska's' other touchdown was made on a fluke when Swanson luck ily caught Dale's pass after two Rutgers players, had touched the ball in the air. Day kicked each goal for Nebraska.

BETTER PLAY PROMISED Multnomah Squad Out to Win Victory and Favor With Foot ball Enthusiasts. BY GEORGE COWNB. Portland gridiron enthusiasts will be given an opportunity to witness their second intercollegiate football clash Saturday when the Multnomah Amateur Athletic club squad enter tains the Gonzaga university eleven of Spokane on the Winged M field. The local team is out to accomplish two things. The first is a victory over the fighting Irishmen from the Inland Empire city and the second is to establish itself once more in the graces of the local football followers who were disappointed with the first appearance of the Winged M team here against the Willamette univer sity. The second will be a lot easier than the first, for the Winged M aggrega tion, when properly handled, should be able to give any collets team in the northwest a close battle, as dem onstrated by the clubmen's game with the University of Oregon and Oregon Agricultural college early in the season. Coach Dorman is not predict ing a victory over GonzJa's blue and white warriors, but he does promise that the clubmen will make a better showing than they did against Wil lamette. ' - Two Defeats on Record. Gonzaga's record for the season to date shows a 35-to-0 defeat received at the hands of the Washington state college, which was the first game of the season for the two institutions; a 63-to-0 victory over the Bremerton navy yard and a 3-to-0 defeat ad ministered Saturday by the Montana State college. Multnomah club has been defeated by the University of Oregon eleven, 7 to 0: battled the Oregon Agricul tural college to a 0-to-0 tie, and de feated the Willamette university Bearcats, 2 to 0. The local team will have to be on its toes all the time against the col lege lads from Spokane, for tiie lat ter are being coached this season by Gus Dorais, former Notre Dame player and coach, who is well versed in all the tricks of the game. Coach Dorais as a player held down the quarterback position on the Notre Dame eleven. During the last year of his playing career he was men tioned as an ail-American selected for the position. With a fast, dry field, the blue and white team will undoubtedly uncork an aerial attack as the basis of its defense. Forward Pass Used. The forward pass has long been a feature of the Notre Dame system of football and Coach Dorais has been spending much of the time since his team's defeat at the hands of the Washington State college in the open ing game of the year, in drilling his men in the open style of play. If the field of play is such that conditions make it unfavorable for the overhead attack, the Gonzaga team will still have a strong defense in its hard-hitting, line-plunging backfield. That the Winged M team does not consider the game with the Gonzaga eleven- in any light manner is evi denced by the strenuous practice ses sions which Coach Dorman has been sending his men through during the past week in preparation for the con test. Sunday morning the clubmen were given a great workout in the shape of a scrimmage with the Mult nomah guard club squad. Another scrimmage with the guardsmen was held last night. Sam Dolan has been selected to ref eree the game. Ed Madigan, Colum bia university coach, will officiate as umpire. Admission to the entire grandstand will be one dollar and war tax. WILLAMETTE WILL PLAY PACIFIC UNIVERSITY TO BE 3IET OX SATURDAY. Scrimmage Is Resumed by Salem Eleven After Three Days of Rest. WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY, Salem, Nov. 2. (Special.) Football practice was resumed with a hard scrimmage yesterday after a three days' rest. Forest Grove will be the scene of next Saturday's battle with the Pa cific University eleven. Although comparative scores, gathered from the Willamette - Chemawa, Oregon Frosh'-Chemawa and Oregon Frosh Pacific contests have given the im pression that the Bearcats should have no difficulty in trimming the Pacific squad by three or four touch downs, very little credence was placed in the dope shee; hare. Coach Mathews has been shifting his men somewhat in the last week's scrimmageas. so that a new combina tion may be seen in Saturday's play against Pacific. PACIFIC WILL MEET RIVAL Wlllamette-P. U. Game Saturday Promises to Be Exciting. PACIFIC UNIVERSITY. Forest Grove, Or., Nov. 2. (Special.) The talk of the campus this week centers around the coming football game with Willamette university. Pacific meets her ancient rival for the an nual game next Saturday and a hard, fast game Is expected. Both teams are light but fast, and a dry field will make for a snappy game. In preparation for this battle sev eral of Pacific's alumni are returning to give special coaching. Leo Lucas, captain in 191" and star halfback, will coach the backfield, as will Byron Goodman, one of the best quarterbacks ever on a P. U. team. Arthur Mills, who starred at end a number of years ago, is to coach the line.
