A. C. The knell of the old athletic field at Thirteenth and Kincaid seems to 1 have rung at last with the new field at Fifteenth and Beech streets rapid ly nearing completion. The first game to take place on Oregon’s new grid iron will be the contest between the University and the Agricultural col lege to be held November 15. The memories surrounding the old field will always remain dear to the Did students as it was on this fielc that the University teams first brought athletic fame to the Lemon and Yellow. Kincaid field was first used about j 1904, and since that time has been the scene of many exciting strug gles. Many times when the dope ' sheet had Oregon chalked for abso lute defeat the tables were turned. One of these times was in the year that O. A. C. defeated Michigan and j came to Eugene expecting an easy j vic tory, hut returned home beaten. [ Again, two years ago, California was J beaten, and there are any number of i similar incidents. These recollec iiions will keep the memory of old ; Kincaid alive. The new football field is one of! [the finest in the country. There was j a slight depression in the spot which was selected as a site for the field.: This depression was filled with gra \ i 1. Drainage pipes were placed at j intervals of ten feet. The gravel j was then covered with 12 inches of loam, which was seeded in order that a sod might form. Now the field is finished and the grandstand nearing completion. The cost of the field was approximately $10,000, and the cost of Ihe stand about the same. The field will be paid for by the 1 University and the stand by the student body. The student body will bo reimbursed from the money taken in as gate receipts. The grandstand will seat 4000 and the bleachers 2500. The field will not open until Novem ber 15 as the grandstands are not' vet finished, but it will be ready in ; time for the annual battle with the Aggies at that date. GLEE CLUB TRYOUT ON j Old Members Must Compete With; New Men This Year. Tryouts i'or the men’s glee club are still in progress, and announce ment of the club members will pro bably not be made until the end of the week. About 30 new men are trying out as well as the old men who are back at college. Contrary to previous practices of the club, old members as well as new men ate required to try out. According to Professor Albert Luk ken, who is in charge of the men’s club this year .prospects are good for a fine club. He believes that some of the old men will have a hard time making the club this year since there is so much excellent ma terial in the freshman class. “OLD OREGON” OUT SOON First Issue cf Alumni Magazine Ready by End of Week. “Old Oregon." the publication of the Alumni of the University of Oregon, containing many items of interest, not only to the alumni but also to the campus, will be out by tin- end of the week, according to Charlie Kenton, editor-in-chief of the magazine, and the alumni secretary.!

MULTNOMAH-OREGON GAME ON SATURDAY. (Continued from page 1) ’16, are the other two possibilities. Ends will probably be Stan An derson of the 1917 team and Martin Howard, who guarded the flank dur ing the last season. In the backfield “Bill” Steers can be counted upon to guide the team from the quarterback berth. Steers played on the fresh man team of 1916 and with the Var sity of 1917. He will also do the punting, in which department he ex celled while on the Oregon team and also during the last year, which he spent for the Mare Island Marines under "Lone Star” Difetz. -V.1,r mill Lrt VinOO Jacobberger, a member of the ser vice team of last year, and Ed Strow brldge, who was with the frosh of ’16. At fullback Hollis Huntington looks like the rock of Gibraltar. Holly has been “going good” in scrimmage and he still has the old knack of dodging tackles. After having made rivals sit up and take notice, or medicine, during the sea son of 1916 here, Huntington enlist ed in the Marines and was one o£ the Oregon men who helped to make that team one of the greatest service elevens in the country in 1917. While this lineup looks good and there are a number of old stars back there is still a great deal to be look ed for. The spirit that has become rampant of late, that Oregon is the only team in the Northwest with prospects for the season is due for an awful fall. Captain “Brandy” Brandenberg is following the first team around with a lame shoulder and will not he able to feature Sat urday and he does not expect that he will be able to get back into the lineup until after the game with Idaho. When it comes to football talent the Multnomah club has assembled a team that is about the most for midable that has been arrayed under one tent in the Northwest for some time. The club is being coached by Bhilbrook, and Lloyd Tegart is guard ing one of the ends. “Teg” will be playing against two of his former teammates when he appears here Saturday, as he was with Hollis Hun tington and Ken Bartlett on the team of 1916. “Shy” Huntington and Bart Spellman, who are coaching the Varsity, were also on the team of that year. Mike Block, one of the greatest lighting lineman that Portland ever, turned out, is numbered among the offering of the club and another with a great reputation is Fred Rehbieu. The Multnomah team is no aggrega tion of has-beens, and there is a chance, and a big one, that the club men may slip over a win on the j Oregon team at this early stage of the season. The two teams will stage a return game in Portland in November. The Multnomah fellows have been practising for a month and as they have not played any games as yet it is impossible to get a line on their strength. The game Saturday will be the first chance to see both teams in action and substitutions will proba bly be many and frequent. Hunting ton. it is expected, will use nearly every man that has been turning out and from their work will pick his men for the training table. The scrimmage this week has been hard and plentiful. The shifting of Art Berg to guard on the first team gives the line more speed as Berg is botli big and fast. Mautz. whose place Berg took, will not be dropped, as he is a mighty valuable lineman and will probably make his letter during the season. It looks as though the line, at this point, was a weather proposition, if the day happens to be dry and the field fast, the team is stronger with Berg on the line. With a slow field, which is w.et and muddy, the use of Mautz is expected. All that can be done at this stage of the game is to recite dope on the probable outcome. The time for some real line on the men will he after the game Saturday, which will follow the underclass mix, which will be called to order at 1 o’clock sharp. ..... . . s, Eggiman’s SOLICITS YOUR TRADE FOR THE COMING COLLEGE YEAR.
