CHEMAWA AMERICAN.
Chemawa vs. University of Oregon.
EUGENE, Or., Oct. 26. The Universi
ty of Oregon eleven won from the Chema
wa team today by a score of 11 toO. The
game though devoid of spectacular
play, was a good exhibition of real foot
ball. The Indians played a good form , and
put up the best game ever played against
the collegians,. Oregon's light eleven
showed up splendidly under the train
ing of Coach Smith. Although the line
failed in a number of instances to with
tand the heavy rushes of the Chemawas
eleven, the collegians were not found
wanting at the critical moment, and pre
vented an almost certain advance score.
Gridiron Was In Fine Shape.
A number of the collegians were severe
ly bruised. McBride, who was showing up
splendidly at right half, sustained a se
vere shoulder bruise early in the game,
and was forced to retire. Ho will not be
able to play against Multnomah. Both
sides put up splendid team work. Good
rich, at the left half, was Oregon's star
player. . He gained more yardage than al'
the other players combined. Chemawa
outweighed Oregon 15 pounds to the man,
Kerron, the freshman guard, put up a grit
ty game.
Game in Detail
Chemawa kicked off from the west goal.
Oregon advanced steadily by line plunges
to Chemawa's eight-yard line, when the
ballwas lost on downs. Chemawa soon
formed to punt when the 'Varsity got the
ball on its opponent's 30-yard line, and by
another series of line plays sent Goodrich
over for a touchdown after 19 minutes of
playing. Just before the end of the half
Oregon failed on a place kick at the 20
yard line.
In the second half Templeton kicked to
Chemawa's three yard line. Oregon was
on side, and immediately fell on the ball
behind the goal for the second touchdowiii
Oregon failed on the goal. Chemawa got
the ball on Oregon's 30-yard line, and
Sanders smashed into Oregon's line for re
peated gains. It looked serious for Oregon ,
but the collegians pulled together and got
the pigskin on their seven-yard line.
Templeton punted out of danger, and the
game ended with Oregon's ball in the cen
ter of the field.

Foot-ball may be rough, sometimes bru
tal but at least it is not enervating. A boy
may break a leg or dislocate a joint in the
rush and tumble incident to the game but
he is not filling his body with tuberculosis,
scrofula and kindred diseases, which are
the results of a lazy inactive life. Some
times inherited, often acquired.
We have no Stadium at Chemawa no
finely equipped gymnasium or renowned
trainer, but we have a lot of eager, active,
brawny, unafraid young men who will
tackle any athletic team on the Pacific
Coast and leave us not ashamed of the result.
