The academy squad has done some faithful practice during the past two weeks for the boys realize that Co lumbia is much stronger this season than last, having on its team two former Weston Normal stars, Storm and Still. The lineup of the academy team will probably be as follows: Center. Wodell and McDonald: forwards. Mc Cormmach and Piper; guards, Taylor and Korvell; subs, Weatherstone, Chllson and Gilliland. Taylor and Norvell are said by Coach Groenwald to be doing fine work at the guard end of the game and give promise of developing Into a swift pair of guards. Woodell and McDonald, the two candidates for the center position, are both new but are working into the spirit and system of the game very rapidly. Jim Chllson made such a good showing in the practice game with the Company L team that Coach Groenwald says he "showed plainly that he is made of real basketball material and could well be named 'Slppery Jim.'

From Pendleton comes n challenge from an all-star eleven representing the Pendleton Athletic club. McM.l llan Is favorable to giving the New Year's game to the Pendleton eleven, provided the high schools and Pull man fail to come through. While Pendleton IS a small town, they have a wide reputation up there for turning out great football material. It would be virtually a game for the club against a crack collide aggrega tion. Most of the Pendleton players are boys well known in Portland from reputations established on north west college fields. With men In the lineup like Olen Arnsplger, Olen Scott, Arthur and Lester Means of Oregon, Gilbert of Oregon Agricultural college, Tracey Baker, the Washington's champions' fullback, a trio of Washburn college stars, an old Tale university player and a half dozen others of equal note the Inlanders would put up a game that would be a credit even to such a city as Portland. The Pendleton management is anx ious to meet Multnomah, either here or in Pendleton and is anxiously awaiting word from Manager Mc Millan. McMUlian is not anxious to take the team to Pendleton for he fears It would be too hard a trip and further that weather conditions would be so uncertain. "Street Cur" Window. The W. J.

The San Francisco Examin er says the following about the film said to be entirely adequate. Mr. "The pictures of the Johnson-Ketch-cl; fight show the colored man at his best. His wonderful el. -v Tin.' s Is dls. plnywl throughout. He was compelled to take every advantage of It on ac count of the well-known punchlpq I ability of Ketchell.
