TH ft CHEMAWA
CHEMAWA VS U. OF 0. SECOND
Our boys gave the Oregon university
Second eleven a surprise last Saturday
when they played them on our gridiron
It was the first game of the season, and
our boys were an untried combination
and we harlly expected them to win, but
thought we could profit by our .mistakes.'
and strengthen our weik points. The
bcore was 5 to 0 in our favor, the score
being made in. the last play of the game.
The first half the Varsity boys had the
best of it, the, ball being nearly contin
uously in our territory. The Oregon
boys bad all the luck of the game. They
fumbled frequently, but recovered pos
session of the ball nearly every time.
' In the second half Chemawa had the
best of the game throughout, the ball
heing in OregonV territory and her goal
iepeatedly in danger. Our boys started
punting and in tins they excelled, much
to our surprise, as it had been given out
that punting was to be a feature with
Oregon this vear, Graham out-punted
Stine, averaging thirty-five yards, The
last play was a quarterback kick from
the thirty-five yard line. It was inter
forced with by one of Oregon's players
nnd rolled over the line when Sprtor
fell on the ball, Graham failed to kick
a hard goal and the game ended' 5 to 0
in Chetnawa's favor. Smith, Mason"
and Graham were Chemawa's Stars,
while Stine and Hawley for Oregon.
The weather was ideal, not a cloud in

OUR RUBE.
Guess it's a sure enough fact qi 'cur
tains" for Rube Haunders this season.
Rube hasn't succeeded in getting his
name in the papers all autumn, but then
autumn is not all over. Time was when
Rube was about the. nobbiest craft along
the Willamette. Not a few recall a game
in which Rube was lined up against
Pacific University. Tom Tongue Jr., of
Hillsboro, was playing safety against
the intrepid Indian Out of. a scrim
mage protruded the bushy, inky looks of
old Rube Shaking off the Pacific boys
he started down the field toward Tongue.
Tongue closed in and they came together,
Tom with his head down. The sudden
impact following the momentum of
Rube's body caused the Indian to turn
a complete somersault, landing squarely
on his feet. He continued unobstructed
to a touchrdown. Portland Journal.
