The (Greatest CHAMPION'S PRIZE Team Takes Silver Cup, Play ers Get Medals Following Soccer Victory. .Record. Ii the fiaio Trai QUEEN'S PARKS SHUT OUT Superior Team Work Gives Game to Winged M's, While Rivals' Dis regard of Training Is Also Held Partly to Blame. The great big Queen's Parks were whitewashed by the little Multnomahs to the tune of four goals to zero as the result of a spectacular same of soccer, or association football, played yesterday on Multnomah field. In which the Multnomah Amateur Athletlo club players won championship honors, a silver cup and sold medals. The unexpected triumph of the vlc 'tors came as a surprise. The Queen's Parka were caught napping-. Some of them spoiled the effects of their hard training by smoking tobacco before the lame and during the wait between the first and second halves, and were In a measure beaten by the club spirit of their rivals. Another big factor in the defeat was the Multnomah's club house, where the red and whites trained faithfully, and took every ad vantage of the swimming pool and .gymnasium. The Queen's Parks traln- ed largely on the cricket grounds near Montavilla, but suffered a handicap be i cause they did not have a city club t&ouse. However, they took; their defeat 'like good sportsmen. Team- Work Wins Game. Again, the Multnomahs played on their own ground and knew every foot of it, and played with the confidence that comes from long training and be cause they are a happy family all to gether. The game was free from roughness, but there was one serious accident in which Pat O'Hara. of the Queen's Parks, got a broken nose. O'Hara attempted to "head" the ball at the same time that a Multnomah man kicked, and the halfback's foot landed on O'Hara' roso. O'Hara was taken to the club-house, where his wound was dressed by Dr. James C. Zan. and he was warned not to re-enter the game. This advice O'Hara plucklly disregarded and plunged into the fray once more, play ing a good and fearless game. It is also curious that the Multno mah man who accidentally injured O'Hara was smashed in the mouth by an opponent at the next bunchy play, and blood was drawn. Apart from this, both crowd and players behaved well, and nobody Insulted the referee. Blll .lngton, of the Nationals. Billington was strict in his decisions and showed that he knew how to enforce both law and order. Game Even atFirst. The game started at 3:14 o'clock, and for a time was of the give and take order. In which neither team had the advantage. Buchanan and Drake re pelled three attacks and Andrew Mat thew showed good head work, second ed by Young. Then the pressure In creased around McBaln and Buchanan, in tlie midst of which Andrew Mat thew cleverly kicked the first goal at 3:26. Robertson, Barbour and Gray were active, but Harry Matthew would ' not be denied and he headed a shot through at 3:38. Oray sent in a warm one to Barton who easily saved. In the second half, the Queen's Parks played gallantly, but their at tacks seemed to lack ginger, while their rivals were as fresh as ever. Young, Godman and Dick increased the speed, and from a bunchy play near Buchanan, Dick placed the leather un der the goal bar. G. Inglls and Hughes came- together again and again, and Hughes held his own, not before- Inglls had sent in a warm shot to Barton, who fisted out. Barbour had one run to Dyment but slipped and spoiled his chances. Drake fouled to Andrew Matthew and from 'the free kick that followed, Godman got the ball and after a fierce charge, scored the fourth and last goal. Queen Parks Lack Unison. Drake, fullback, and Robertson, right half, were stars for the Queen's Parks and played so well that they staved off worse defeat. Big Ed Mays played as center half, and was placed at a disadvantage as he is a wing man and a good one. All the Multnomahs played as one. Dundee" Buchanan, Young and Godman have been the "finds" of the year to Multnomah, nnd much of the good showing is due to their work. The Matthew hrothers' combination was un broken and they showed almost pro fessional soccer. Dyment never showed better generalship. Dick, Bennet. Hughes and Sammins had gilt-edge combination, and Barton saved in style. Some spectator found fault with the manner in which the back divisions of both clubs often missed the foot ball, when rushed. The reason is that the football was a new one, lighter than the usual regulation size, and the players were not used to it. The regular foot-ball disappeared some time before the game. So Multnomah tops the league, standing of the various clubs is: Team Won Ixist Drawn M. A. A. 0 7 1 l wueen'a Park .6 7 1 Cricketers .........4 2 2 National ...... ....2 6 0 Oceanic 0 S o The "2 to 1" men on Queen's Parks got cold feet and did not show up at the game, so betting was light. In other years the winners of the soccer league championship played an ' all-star team, and It is likely that this plan will be followed this year. Other prospective games will be between teams representing All-America, Scot land and England.

Trip or 2200 Miles Will Test En during Qualities of Latest Make of Automobiles. CINCINNATI, Ohio, March 5. Frank X. ZIrbles, America's most famous road driver, who recently acted as pace maker in the National Highway' Tour from New York to Atlanta, after hav ing a few months before successfully carried war dispatches from Major Oeneral Leonard Wood, IT. S. A., in New York, to Major-General "Weston. IT. S. A., In command at the Presidio, San Francisco, In the first transcon tinental war message mission ever es sayed in this country, started from here recently to cover the 1910 route of the Glidden tour, which begins here about the middle of June and winds up about three weeks later in Chicago. The early start of the pathfindlng automobile over the Glidden tour route that traverses 10 states, nearly half of hem below the Mason & Dixon line, and much of the Itinerary over territory never before Invaded by the big annual touring cavalcade. Is 1n response to an unparalleled demand from motorists all over the country, as well as the big manufacturers for data on the course selected for the greatest reliability con test of the Western hemisphere. That the sixth Glidden tour will be a su preme test for the mechanism of the best cars made In the country is the verdict of the technical automobile men who laid out the touring route. That the car that blazed the way on the big New York-Atlanta National Highway run for a record-breaking field of contestants and subsequently conquered all manner of climatic, road and physical difficulties In the trans continental dispatch mission will go through from the Queen City to Chi cago, via Texas, is the firm conviction of the designer. The widest variety of road conditions Is expected In' Ken tucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and Illinois. Advance information gathered by Driver Zlrbies is that floods. Ice, snow and deep mud may be encountered at Intervals along the entire route, with a possibility of enforced detours in the Mississippi Valley on account of Inun dations. The Glidden tour annually has been increasing in strenuous features, due to the development of the cars and the In dustry. In 1905 it began In New York City and terminated in the same city after a trip of 870 miles In the New Kngland district, rrhe following year the strenuous task from the starting point at Buffalo, led the tourists through Ontario and Quebec to the fin ish at Kangeley Lake, Me., 1150 miles. In 1907 the start ' was made at Cleve land, Chicago being the Western termi nus and New York the concluding point, a distance of 1570 miles. In 1908 the tour began at Buffalo, and running through Pennsylvania, New York and Maine, it finished at Saratoga, a dis tance of 1670 miles. In 1909 the long est and severest tour of all began In Detroit, and was concluded on a hard run east from Denver to Kansas City, after having touched Chicago, Minnea polis and Omaha, the total distance having been 2640 miles. As planned for 1910 the tour will be about 2200 miles. The principal cities In which controls may be expected after leaving Cincinnati, are Louisville, Ky,j Nashville and Memphis.
