ORECON CITY TEAM TOUCHDOWN IN LAST MINUTES PREVENTS HARD GAME FROM BEING SCORELESS. The Oregon City football team met defeat Sunday at the hands of the Wabash team of Portland, after a gruelling contest that bruised all of the players to a certain extent. In juries were frequent occurrences, al though 'luckily, none of them were serious. Wabash won on a touchdown in the last minutes of the game, when Dowling, who was easily the star player of the day, caught a punt, and sprinted over half the length of the field for a touchdown. A storm of dissention immediately arose, the Oregon City play'trs declaring that the runner went across the sidelines the Wabash team insisting that he did not. The officials decided in favor of the visitors, much to the dis appointment of the locals. Neither side attempted any thing startling in the line of new football, the old style 'game being nsed the greater part of the time. The line bucks of Long, the local fullback were nearly always successful, and he seldom failed to make a gain. Moore, left half for Oregon City, and Dowling, who played the same posi tion for Wabash, were both badly battered at all times, but in spite of injuries, they made many consistent runs for their teams. Speady, the Wabash right end played an excep tionally fast game, and broke up many Oregon City plays by getting behind the line. The line up:" Wabash Oregon City Speady R.E.L. Lagesou Fenning R.T.L.
