Denial that Vincent Borleske, coach of the Whitman college football team at Walla Walla, Wash., had recei-ed an offer of J10.000 a year to coach the University of Washington squad, as . reported in Seattle last night, was voiced today by David Meisnest, Washington graduate manager, here today. Meisnest Is attending the meeting 01 tne i-acino coast conference. Borleske'a name has not been con SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BARRED BY SCHOOLS INORTHWEST Aggies, Oregon and Pullman Fear Los Angeles Eleven Might Form "Big Three" With Berkeleyans and Stanford. BY L. H. GREGORY. , THE real reason tlje Pacific coast conference at its annual-meeting just ended declined to admit the University of Southern California to membership Is a good deal different from the reason given for publication! The conference spoke of the dis tance to Los Angeles as an insur mountable bar to relations with Southern California. It is a handicap, all right, but the really insurmount able bar is just this: Oregon Agricul tural college. University of Oregon and Washington State college want the conference to stay exactly as it is. It suits them to a "I" right now. They figure that as it is now composed the northern schools with four members hold the balance of power and can prevent the two southern varsities from dictating. Behind that is their fear of a possi ble "Big Three" combination between California, Stanford and the Univer sity of Washington. The latter has shown signs of not being entirely pleased with arrangements and would like to be included in a "Big Three" that would apportion the choice games to suit itself. So long as there are only two California members, this still would leave a three-to-three alignment. But with Southern Cali fornia admitted, the addition of Wash ington to the California lineup would make it four against three. Not that this contingency has come up. But Oregon, Oregon Agricultural college and Wash'ngtou State think that it might come up, hence are de termined not to play into the hands of such a combination by encouraging it to come up. Still another ground of objection by these three to letting in Southern California is that the conference foot ball schedule, with six members in the conference, is now automatic and self-adjusting. There are two confer ence colleges in each of the three conference states and they are sup posed to play each other in their sea son's "big. game." Each California member under arrangements in effect this year played two football games each season with northern teams, one in the north and one at home. Each northern institution lias had one game a year with a southern college, alter nating between them and going south one year and playing at home the next. After once agreeing to continue this three-game schedule plan an other year, the conference changed its mind yesterday after some hot dis cussion and put on a four-game sched ule. Under the new four-game ar rangement each northern college Plays both California colleges each season. One of the games is at home, the other in California. And Califor nia and Stanford each make one trip north. This is a vastly better arrange ment than, the old three-game plan. It still retains the game between two colleges in the same state, such as Oregon versus Oregon Agricultural college,' Washington versus Washing ton State and California versus Stan ford, as the "big game" of the season. Washington objects bitterly to this automatic feature of the schedule which compels her to schedule her "big game" against Washington State. In fact, because of ait old squabble she objects to playing Washington state at all, though a game has been arranged for next season. What Washington would like to do is to schedule her "big game" of the vear at Seattle each season on a fixed date against California or Stanford. She really desires to schedule two games a year with California, one at home and the other at Berkeley. As this always would eliminate some one and occasionally two of the smaller northern colleges from an nnual game with California, they sternly object. With southern Cali fornia admitted they fear the possi bly resulting combination might eeze them out. So altogether the chances don't look bright for southern California, even next year or the year after. Sooner or later, though, the welfare of the conference will require her admit tance. Entirely aside from political con siderations one weakness of the pres sidered by the student board of con trol at Washington and there is no movment under way at the university to obtain his services as coach, Mr. Meisnest said.

V BRCAkinC ) S A , t" " ( MY HCART I I ent Pacific coast conference schedule has been that under the automatic football schedule now effective most of the members have 1 liiyed only three Pacific coastconference football games in a season. Oregon Agricultural col lege this year was the lone exception in playing more conference games. She played four. Washington State played only two because of inability to agree with Washington on a game Now the conference has amended this by adopting & 4-game schedule. That is much better. But even four games is a small conference schedule. Five would be about right, though with distances what they are on the coast, four probably is the limit that can be played ini the conference until the conference has more members. The ideal Pacific coast conference would include both southern Califor nia and one other college.' either northern or southern, giving a mem bership of eight. But where is the eighth member to come from? Santa Clara, St. Mary's, Pomona in California are not conference mate rial. And in the northwest Idaho is too small and will not be available for years to come. The football field In the University of Washington's just-completed sta dium at Seattle, which was dedicated by the Washington-Dartmouth game, has a truly wonderful system of drainage. Both field and- stadium wero built by the old Lewis-Wiley hydraulic organization,' of which William H. Lewis, well known here, la a member, which gained fame in the engineer. ng world by building Westover terraces in Portland. The same methods of hydraulic sluicing so successful here were employed in building the stadium. The playing field was absolutely dry, without so much as a puddle of wuter on it, after one of the heaviest rain and wind storms Seattle has had in years. It was dry because of its construction. The playing field was first gridironed with rows of 4-inch drain tile laid in trenches filled with gravel every 25 feet over the entire field. On top of that was spread 14 inches of coarse gravel, which has a covering of shavings and sawdust. and on top of that eight inches of sandy loam. This loam was raked, scraped and rdled constantly for two weeks be fore the lig game. Captain Robert son of Dartmouth was surprised into expletives when he saw the dry field and he declared it was one of the be6t he had ever played on. It was ideally adapted to Dartmouth's accurate run ning, tackling, passing and kicking game. Darwin Meisnest, graduate man ager of athletics at the University of Washington, emphatically der.ied yes terday at Berkeley. Cal., the story from Seattle that Washington has of fered Vincent Borleske, Whitman coach, $10,000 a year to coach football at Washington and act as director of athletics. Knoeh Bagshaw, for the past sev eral years football coach of Kverett high school is supposed to have the inside track for Coach Stub Allison's place. Bagshaw is a former Univer sity of Washington player himself There is some opposition to him, but he seems to have better sailing than any other candidate. Bagshaw has never had a " losing football eleven since he began coaching Kverett high, and in that time his lads have cleaned up some of the best in the country. Harry Dorman, manager-coach of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic club football team, who also played under Dobie at the University of Washing ton, gained his football training un der Bagshaw at Kverett high. Klmer Henderson, coach of the Uni versity of Southern California, wh made an undefeated record this year, also is considered, though a two-year contract that has another year to go at Southern California just about eliminates him. Henderson is liked in Seattle, where he broke into the coaching game as coach for Broadway high school. The other step most in favor at Washington is to go east and engage some player with a big reputation. The name of Borleske hadn't even been considered by students there until the rumor got around, now de--nied by Meisnest, that he had received an offer. once. White has been an instructor at Ad Garlock's and Mike Butler's gymnasiums in Portland. Tigers Sign Outfielder. KANSAS CITY, Mo.. Dec. 1.

OH, WEST'S GOLF RULES FOR EAST PROPOSED Invasion by Western Asso ciation Suggested. JANUARY 15 TO DECIDE Changes Will Be Voted On at An nual Meeting- Some Regula tions Held Xot Practical. CHICAGO, Dec. 1. Invasion of the east by the Western Golf association as part of a plan to 'bring all the golf clubs of the country under the same set of rules is proposed in amendments to the Western Golf as sociation's constitution and by-laws submitted by mail to the directors to day. The changes, to be voted on at the annual meeting January 15. involve adoption of a new name, the Ameri can Golf association, which would act as the authoritative administrative body for making and enforcing the rules for the playing of golf in the United States." One of the chief purposes of the new golf organization, if approved, would be to revise those rules which it is said were originally intended for Scotch and British courses and are not practicar for American courses. NEW YORK, Dec. 1. Golf ing circles in the east were agitated today over the announcement that the Western Golf association has proposed an in vasion of the east for the purpose of wresting control of the game in this country from the United States Golf association. A bitter war for the su premacy was freely prediced. Outside of the amateur rule, the principal differences are those relat ing to stymie and to lost and unplay able balls. AIMS OF CHANGES EXPLAINED Best Interests of Golf for Ameri cans Declared Involved. CLEVELAND, Dec. 1. The directors of the Western Golf association rec ommended the adoption of a new con stitution looking toward an American organization and to promote the best Interests of the game for Americans, believing that changes in the rules of golf may be advisable from time to time, according to a statement is sued by Wilbur H. Brooks, president of the association, tonight. St. Andrews' rules should be re written in response to the popular demand for a set of "understandable rules" covering the playing conditions in this 'country. Mr. Brooks eaid. His statement follows: "Since the formation of the West ern Golf association in 1893, it has been the policy of the directors of the Western Golf association to main tain a democratic, representative and progressive organization for the best Interests of American golf. No one man, or small group of men, has domi nated the organization or its policies. "The Western Golf association is neither-a local nor sectional body. From a charter membership of ten clubs its membership now extends into 31 states, Canada and Hawaii. The Western Golf association has en deavored to bring into close com munication with itself all minor as sociations within its territory. The Western Golf association believes that all member clubs should have voting power and a voice in the legislation and policy of the organization. "The Western Golf association be lieves that Americans understand golf and that they play under different conditions than those existing in other countries and that Americans are entirely capable of formulating the proper rules for playing the game in this country. "The Western Golf association be lieves further that changes in the rules of golf may be advisable from time to time, as our knowledge of the game increases, or as existing rules prove to be unpopular or un suitable to the conditions under which Americans play the game. The rules Of golf as published by St. Andrews should be re-written in response to the popular demand for a set of understandable rules covering the playing conditions In this country. "With th&se facts before them and after serious consideration, the direc tors of the Western Golf association have recommended the adoption of a new constitution looking toward an American organization, representa- MAN! tive of America and prepared to pro-1 mote tne Dest interests ok tne game for Americans."

WHITMAN TEAM PLANS TRIP Basketball -.Quintet Has Scheduled Games In Spokane. WHITMAN COLLEGE. "Walla Walla. Wash., Dec. 1. (Special.) A pre season practice basketball schedule for the Whitman basketball quintet during the first week of January has been arranged for by Coach and Graduate Manager Borleske. Five games will be played, the Whitman squad journeying to Spokane, Wash., where the Spokane Athletic club, Lewis and Clarke high school and Spokane university will be met. Cheney normal has also written Whitman for games, and they may also be played during the trip. Re turn games will be played with the Spokane Athletic club at Whitman during the second week of January, following the Whitman trip the first week. Outside of the practice trip, two trips will be made hy Whitman dur ing the season, Borleeke announced. One will be made- north, meeting Washington State college, the Uni versity of Idaho and the University of Montana. The souther- trip will include the University of Oregon, Oregon Agricultural college, Multno mah club and Willamette university. A tentative schedule made by Coach Borleske calls for more than 20 games. Sport News and Comment. Leopards, tigers, cougars, panthers, bears and other junl8 critters who have been fed on raw meat for the last two months to have them sufficiently ferocious to gambol on the football gridiron, now have gone back to their normal diet of ciga rettes. ... Any suggestion made by Percy D. Haughton, famous as Harvard's former successful gridiron coach, is deserving of great consideration, for few men know the great American collegiate game better than he. His fear that the frequency of the forward pass may reduce football to a magnified form of basketball is not without foundation of fact. There seems little question among followers of the game that some changes must be made to better the aerial game.
