Cougars Flared far Below Standard in California Contest. Coach Dick Rutherford and his gang of 21 fighting: Oregon Aggie football warriors, accompanied by James J. Richardson, manager of student ac tivities; Mike H. Butler, head trainer; .George Richardson and 22 members of the Oregon Agricultural College Glee club, spent the afternoon in Portland yesterday on their iway to Pullman, Waslu, where the Heavers clash with .Washington State college tomorrow. The Aggie squad participated in a etiff workout on Multnomah field early In the afternoon and after a trip to the rubber and showers remained at the club and took in the Washington-Jefferson interscholastic contest. The party left for Moscow, Idaho, its next' stop, at 11 o'clock last night. The men will go through a short but snappy practice session on the Uni versity of Idaho gridiron at Moscow today and then entrain for the final destination. Pullman. "Victory Aot Expected. Coach Rutherford does not expect victory for the Oregon Agricultural college and is outspoken as to his eleven's slim chance. The .Aggie mentor was among those present at the California - Washington State game at Berkeley, Cal., last Saturday and had the following to say on the subject. "The score or the showing of -the Washington State college ; team against California was by no means a criterion of the Cougars strength. They played far below their standard, tout were .fighting to the finish and going as strong the last minute of play as they were at the start of the game. Fumbles and bad breaks be set Coach Welch's team at every stage. I truly expect to get badly trimmed tomorrow. You can bet that the Aggies will be in there fighting every minute and will tackle one of the best teams in the west." Several Men Out. Several of Oregon Agricultural col lege's best men have been out of the game practically all season and will not be able to start against Wash ington State. "Gap" Powell, the smashing Aggie fullback, is with the team, but will be unable to do any playing Saturday. Hughie McKenna, quarterback, Is badly bunged up, as Is Woods and several others. The players making the trip are Rose. Powell, Hughle McKenna, Hod ler, Kasberger, Sealy, Summers, H. McKenna and Woods, backfield men; Stewart, Heyden, Christensen, C. E.

OREGON AGRICULTURAL ' COT- liEGE, Corvallis, Nov. 11. (Special.) The Beaver football squad accom panied by Coach Rutherford, Jimmy Richardson, student manager, and "Dad" Butler, trainer, left Corvallis early Thursday morning for Pullman, where they are scheduled to meet the Washington Staters Saturday. One of the largest demonstrations ever given a team leaving the local campus to play football was pulled off by college rooters and band. In the wee hours of the morning stu dents from all parts of Corvallis be gan to form and start in with their cheers and music. Long before 7:30, the time the team left Corvallis, for Portland, "Bob" Stann, cheer king, was at the depot with his rooters. Including a large number of the fair Bex. . "You don't know how we appreci ate it, fellows, and believe me we are going to fight and show that we are worthy of the compliment," said the last varsity man to board the train. Coach Rutherford did not disap point the rooters but gave out his oft repeated sentence: "Win, loose or draw, the men will fight as long as they are able to fight and when the battle is over they will have no alibi to offer." The determination to fight to a fin ish was shown clearly in the face of very player. The practice during the last week has developed nothing new, except that the old fight which was exhibited in the Washington and Cal ifornia games is still present and each player who was fortunate enough to make the trip can be de pended upon to show fight to such an extent that Oregon Agricultural college will' deserve its present repu tation of a fighting machine. The backfield which will face Washington States 19 considered ex ceptionally strong despite the fact that "Gap" Powell will not be in the lineup. Harold McKenna and "Hi" Wood are slated for the fullback berth, while Hughie McKenna or Stanley Summers will play quarter. The halfbacks wll be selected from Hodler, Kasberger, Seely and Sum mers. Captain "Chuck" Rose will enter the game at right end. while Muriua McFadden will hold down the other wing. Crowell and Swan will play tackle, while Christensen and Clark will enter the game at guards.

BY L. H. GREGORY. FIFTEEN times in the past 20 years, have the Universities of Oregon and Washington met at football, and of those 15 games Wash ington has won seven and Oregon six. The other two were ties. So Oregon has the further incentive for win ning tomorrow's big scramble at Eu gene of evening up the series and making it seven apiece. The most one-sided victory in 20 years was won by Oregon in 1900 with a score of 43 to 0. Those were the days of the mighty Templeton broth ers in Oregon football. Washington came back at their- next meeting, which was not until 1903v and took a fierce 6-to-5 contest by virtue of a foozled kick for goal by Oregon after a touchdown. A high wind was blow ing dead against the kicker. The ball started true for the bars, but the wind caught it and swept it to one side. The great work of Speidell for Washington was largely responsible for her touchdown and goal kick. But in 1904 Oregon wiped out this memory by scoring 18 points to none for Washington. One of the two tie battles was that of '1905. The score when the final whistle blew stood Oregon 12, Wash ington 12. The other tie game, in 1918, ended 0 to 0. In general, Oregon held the edge on Washington up to the arrival of Gil Dobie in 1908. Then began a long series of Washington' victories, not ended until the 1916 0-to-0 tie. Six times in the seven intervening years the best Oregon could put forth went down before the great football ma chine drilled by Dobie. That 1908 struggle, which took place In Eugene, long will be remem bered. It was the first real intro duction to the northwest of Gil Dobie and the two Washington stars whose names figured thereafter, for so may seasons in the football news. Max Eakins, the giant tackle who punted B0, 60 and 70 yards at a clip, and Melvin Mucklestone, halfback. Wash ington won, 15 to 0. In those years came also into Just renown the name or wee coyle, now lieutenant-governor-elect of Washington, as quar terback and stellar field general. In 1909 Washington again defeated Oregon, 20 to 6; repeated in 1911, after a one-year breach in relations, 29 to 3; took the 1912 game, 30 to 14, and won on Multnomah field in 1913 in one of the toughest battles ever fought there, 10 to 7. After a field goal early in the game Washington saved itself from defeat in the final period by a touchdown on a forward pass. In 1914 Washington took Its final game of this golden age for the purple and gold 10 to 0. This marked the beginning of the Bezdek era at Oregon and the pass ing of the Dobie era at Washington. The two crossed each other's paths again in 1916, one coming forward, the other going back, and the result was 0 to 0. Since that year the bal ance has swung to Oregon. Thc-e was no game in 1917 because of the war, but in 1918 the first eleven coached at Oregon by Shy Huntington wrested a 7-to-0 victory from Washington. In 1919 It was- far more one-sided, Oregon winning 24 to 13. Now comes tomorrow's game, which either will make it three in a row for Oregon and seven games apiece in 21 years of playing, or will stop the Oregon run of success and give Washington eight games to Ore gon's six unless, of course, it should be a tie. The writer still inclines to the be lief that Oregon has a slight edge over the northerners. That Oregon fighting spirit, for which the Eugene elevens have long been noted, is very much in evidence this season. Wash ington has had somewhat more ex perience, having played in four games to Oregon's three, counting the Mult nomah club set-to. And. with only five lettermen in the game, and prob ably two of them out with injuries, the Oregon team is decidedly green. But it still will be a decidedly dif ferent eleven that faces Washington from the one that out-lucked Idaho or lost to Stanford, depend upon that. The two weeks of rest since the Stan ford game have done much for the Oregonians. They have at last per fected a real attack, and with .Bill Steers in form once more, are a mightily improved combination. And as a drop-kicker and producer of field goals. Steers is a most dangerous In dividual in addition to his ability In direct attack. Still, this' one is a hard game to dope. Washington has lost three games in a row, but the latter two have been by only a field goal each. Neither Oregon Agricultural college AND ll i r ,, M. ( GeT Scott.' its f iv V. I f Si or.t ct- An I h m m -r5-tj i 'J -s- nor Stanford was able to carry the ball across the Washington line. Washington is hopelessly out of It for northwest honors. But she will hate to lose against Oregon more than against all the others combined. So look for a real tussle, whicn might end in anybody's favor. When team weights are considered there is little to favor either eleven. The prospective Oregon lineup aver ages 173 pounds to the man, as against 171 for Washington. What scant difference In weight there is favorable to Oregon is in her back field, for the Oregon and Washington forwards scale almost the same. Take the Oregon line: Howard, left end. 166; Spike Leslie, left tackle, 186; Strachan, left guard. 182; Brick Les lie, center, 166; Mautz. right guard, 189; Shields, right tackle, 190; Rud Brown, right end, 173. Well balanced throughout. Brick Leslie, at center, the lightest man from tackle to tackle, can give an account of him self againt any opposing center, no matter how hefty. ' Nothing to fear on that account. The general aver age, 179 pounds. ' Now consider the opposing Wash ington line, man for man: Rogge, at right end, 168 pounds, against How ard. 166; Ingram, right tackle, 186, against Spike Leslie, 186; Pope, right guard, against Strachan, 182; Smith, center, 175; against Spike Leslie, 166; Bryan, left guard, 184, opposing Mautz, 189; Clark, left tackle. 185, bucking Shields, 190, and Daily, 170, against Rud Brown, 173. Average weight of forwards, 179 pounds, the same as for Oregon. Not much to choose from on the weight score. Experience, of course, must be considered. Where Howard, Spike Leslie, Brick Leslie and Mautz in the Oregon line are former letter men. Daily, Clark, Smith and Pope for Washington have played two years each, except Daily, who Is in his third year. Oregon's rest period since the Stan ford game has given Coach Hunting ton a chance to develop some offen sive strategy and get his interference to working welL And with good in terference, watch out for Bill Steers. Once he breaks through Bill is a wild man. He can't batter the line" as Hollie Huntington did, though he is no mean hand at it, even so, but how he does go in open or semi-open field running! And moreover he is a very hard man to tackle. In another respect this rest will be worth a lot to Oregon because it gives Bill Hayward time to get some of the Oregon cripples in condition. If any man on earth can condition a hopelessly bunged-up football player. Bill Hayward is that man. He Is a veritable miracle worker. Just an instance of Bill Hayward's resourcefulness in patching up injur ies. Back in 1909, just before the annual University of Oregon-Oregon Agricultural college game, Earl Lat ourette, then at quarter for Oregon, had a knee that was in awful shape. It was considered vital for Latourette to play and run the team. Yet he could hardly walk, let alone play football. Bill worked on that knee and stud ied it. worked on it and studied it. Once it was strapped up tight and Latourette could hobble along pretty well, but the least tap on the knee doubled him up with pain and made it absolutely a day, so far as his play ing was concerned. Bill continued to work on the knee, bake it and study, work on It, bake it and study. Finally this is what he evolved: He got an automobile tire inner tube automobiles were scarce and inner tubes cost about as much then as a flivver does today and cut off a section of It. Then he had the ends vulcanized together and inflated the tube with just enough air to form a nice air cushion. He strapped up Lat ourette's knee, put this rubber air cushion ovei it, and, presto Latour ette got into the game and played long enough for Oregon to get a score before he took a rap that put him out for good. And don't forget, when reflecting on Oregon fight, that old Bill is per sonally responsible for a large chunk of that fight. He Instills it Into the players from his first contact wit,h them as freshmen. They can't asso ciate with him without Imbibing his own indomitable spirit of never say ing quit. s - Welling to Fight Leonard. NEW YORK. Nov. 11.

The Washington and Jefferson high school elevens staged a great battle yesterday on Multnomah field. Jef ferson went down to defeat, 21 to 0. The victory of the Washington team came through all-around supremacy, with one exception, and that was fight. In this department, it can be said " that Coach Quigley's lads outfought the Washington players throughout the game. It was the lack of a strong; offense that kept Jefferson from scoring. Several times the blue and gold ath letes had Washington in a bad way but were not strong enough to shove over a score. The defense put up by the Jeffer son team was all that could be ex pected under the circumstances. The fighting spirit of the team was in evidence throughout the entire game but was best shown in theJast period. Washington had worked the ball to Jefferson's six-yard line, but with four attempts could not crash through for a score. Washington's Goal Safe. Washington's goal was never In danger except once in the third quar ter when Jefferson sprang a spread play that for the moment fooled their opponents. The play was worked twice, once for a forward pass which gained several yards and again with one of the backs carrying the ball through the line It worked for an other good gain. Jefferson lost the ball and a chance to score, however, by an uncompleted pass over the goal line.- - Washington failed to show as strong on the offense yesterday as In previous contests. Bill Hurlburt, Washington's chunky fullback, made few of his customary gains. It was French, a halfback, who did the best work. Pass Is Hade to French. French was on the receiving end of a 25-yard forward pass from Johnny Haak. which placed Washington in a position to score its first touchdown in the second period. After off-tackle bucks had carried the ball a few yards more. Baker, who had replaced Hurlburt at full, went through for the first score. Scott kicked goal. Washington's towering line was responsible for the second score. Jef ferson had been backed to its own goal line from where Anderson was attempting o bring his team out of danger with a punt. The Washington line broke through on him. Bert Haynes blocked the kick and also fell on the ball behind. the line for a touchdown. Scott kicked goal. French, who can be credited with a large share In the Washington vic tory, added another touchdown to the score in the last few minutes of play. Pass Is Intercepted. Intercepting a pass on his own 20 yard line, the fleet-footed Washing ton back fought his way through the TOOK UP GOLF. not ms CROSS Op GOLF rmiH H. 1 HI!

In the Washington backfield Haak and French accounted fo." themselves in the best manner. Hitchcock started at half, was switched to end. back to half again and then finished the game at end.

Failure at Goal Kick Takes Away Chances of Down-River Team for Tie Game. ASTORIA. Or.. Nov. 11. (Special.) Franklin high school of Portland ran up against real opposition In the Armistice day feature this afternoon when it defeated the Astoria, high school team 7 to 6. From the first kick-off until the whistle sounded it was either team's game, and Dyer's Inability to kick a goal following a touchdown robbed the local team of a chance to tie with the Portland team. Astoria used a variety of plays, gaining yardage on end runs and on short passes, while the Franklin shift gave the Portlanders a chance to run plays off tackle. Despite the fact that the Astorians were 10 pounds lighter to the man, they held the visitors for downs on a number of occasions. Franklin scored in the first quar ter, when Kyser picked a pass out of the air and ran for a touchdown. King kicked goal. In the second quarter Tennant of Astoria obtained the ball after Dyer's drop-kick was blocked and ran down the side lines for a touchdown. Dyer's attempt to convert failed by Inches. Astoria had the ball on Franklin's 20-yard line on two occasions, but the visitors held and punted out of dan ger. The largest crowd of the year attended the game, more than 3000 watching the even battle. - The lineup: Dyer T,T. ...... .....

CONTROL CHANGE LIKELY President of Both American and National Leagues Are Not to Be at Session. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Nov. 11. With the dove of peace hovering pver them, the warring clubs of the American and National leagues left tonight for i Chicago, where tomorrow they will meet in conference to decide for war or peace in the major leagues. Predictions are made that the 11 clubowners of the newly organized National league and the five clubs 'oyal" to President Ban Johnson of the American league will agree to end hostilities. While no official an nouncement has been made, every member of the two major leagues has gone on record as favoring a reorgan ization in baseball, of the appoint ment of a new board of control and of the selection of Federal Judge Landis of Chicago as the chairman with a salary of $50,000 a year. Only Clnbowners to Meet. When the 16 clubowners go into session tomorrow, they will meet to Iron out their dif f iculites. Past grievances will be forgotten and no reflection will be cast on any of the major league officials, present or ab sent. Neither President Johnson nor President Heydler of the National league will attend. Neither will there be any lawyers or other outsiders. Only the 16 clubowners will take part in the discussion. Out of the peace negotiations it was expected that the Lasker plan for baseball reorganization will be modi fied to meet new situations. The minor leagues have decided upon a "hands off" policy in regard to In dorsement of the plan, but they insist upon equal representation with the major leagues on the new governing body. Minora Close Convention. After the minor leaguers decided upon the selection of a committee of six to meet with the major leagues In developing the plan of baseball re organization and had chosen Buffalo, N. Y.. for the 1921 meeting, the annual convention was closed. The committee selected to meet with the major league owners prob ably will not go into conference with them until after the threatened major league war is settled. It is considered likely that the joint meetings of the three organizations probably will not be held until Feb ruary. The minor leaguers unanimously voted President M. H. Sexton of Rock Island, 111., an annual salary of $5000. Services Unpaid Heretofore. He will devote his full time to league affairs. Sexton has served the minors for 20 years without compen sation. The salary of John'H. Far rell of Auburn, N. Y., secretary and treasurer of the association, was raised from $5000 to $7500. The funds to meet these salaries will be ob tained by appropriating 2 per cent of the purchase price of all players sold. The following league officials were chosen as members of the national board of arbitration: Thomas J. Hickey, president of the American association; J. Cal Ewing of the Pa cific Coast league and David L. Fultz, president of the International league, as representatives of the class AA leagues; A. R. Tearney, president of the Western and Three-I leagues; Dan O'Neill, president of the Eastern league, and John D. Martin, presi dent of the Southern association, rep resenting class A leagues; Robert Brown of the Pacific International league; G. H. Mains, president of the Michigan-Ontario league, and E. W. Dickerson, president of the Central league, representing the class B leagues; N. P. Cornish of the South Atlantic league, representing class C leagues, and W. R. Rose, president of the Florida State league, as repre sentative of the class D leagues. Nearly 100 cases involving every thing from disputes between clubs over the ownership of players and territorial rights remain for settle ment before the board of arbitration, which probably will be in session un til the end of the week. HEYDLER EXPECTS XO WAR Reorganization Decision Expected at Conference Today. ST. LOUIS, Nov. 11. John A. Heyd ler, president of the National league, on a visit here today, expressed the opinion that the threatened baseball war will be averted following the meeting of the American and National league magnates at Chicago tomor row. "When we get together tomorrow," he asserted, "I am certain that some definite decision for the reorganiza tion of baseball will be reached. Something must be done for the good of the game. "However, should there be a hitch, we are prepared to go through with the 12-club league." GOVERNOR TO SEE GAME 15,00 0 MAY VIEW FOOTBALL CONTEST AT CORVALLIS.

SPOKANE, Wash., Nov. 11. Playing their heavier opponents off their fret by scoring three touchdowns in the first quarter and another in the second quarter, the Gonzaga university foot ball team defeated the Camp Lewis eleven. 27 to 0, here today. Gonzaga's forward passing was a feature of the game, which was .played on a field swept by a cold north wind. Frequent penalties slowed up the Gonzaga offensive. Salem High Employs Coach. SALEM, Or.. Nov. 11. (Special.) Paul ("Tubby") Hendricks, who for several days has been acting as mentor of the Salem high school foot ball team has been elected perma nent coach and physical director of the eleven at a salary of $200 a month.

Ml ATHLETE IS HERE FENCER VISITS OLD FRIENDS OX WAY TO CAMP LEWIS. Major Robert Sears, Who Starred in Antwerp Games, Is Assigned to Fourth Division. Major Robert Sears, ordnance de partment. United States army, is back in Portland, his old home town, for a brief visit. For several years after his graduation from West Point in lr09 he was stationed at Vancouver, Wash., with the 1st infantry. Latr ho accompanied his regiment to Ha waii. Major Sears has been stationed in the east, but has just been transferred to Camp Lewis as division ordnance officer of the 4th division. With his wife, who was Miss Marguerite Hume, also of Portland, he has come here for a brief visit before reporting at Camp Lewis. Major Sears will return to Camp Lewis today, but Mrs. Sears will remain at the Nortonia hotel for the next two weeks. In his West Point days Major Sears was one of the best fencers in Amer ica. As a member of the West Point team he won the intercollegiate cham pionship in 1908. Since then he has been on two national and five inter natioal rifle and fencing teams, and on each has won high honors. Last summer he was a member of the Inter-allied American expeditionary force rifle team 'and was high man in the 20-0-meter match at Paris. He still retains his ability as a fencer, so much so that he was one of the members of the team of four fencers that represented America in the Olympic games last summer at Antwerp. For the first time in his tory the United States at this meet won a place In international fencing competition. The American team came out third in the foil competition, being led by Italy and France. The hardest match was with England, which the Americans won by 3 touches to 32. As the result of this close match the English are to have a return match against the American team in New York next May. Major Sears was second high man on the American team in points won. In fact, he was separat d from the high man by only a few points.
