NEW JURORS DRAWN.
Some were Excused They will Hear
Jfhe Liquor Cases The New
men.
Yesterday atternoon, tour new
jurors were drawn for the term of
adjourned court to convene Monday
December 18th, An equal number
of the late venire were excused by
Judge Harris, the most if not all of
them having legal reasons. One .
was J. P. Hummer who was excus
ed on the ground that he is a minis
ter of the gospel. Another is Louis
Hartley, absent most of the time at
his mines in the Bohemia district,
and not available for jury duty in
Benton. A third is L- A. Brush,
who is a non-resident, having re
moved from Benton county to Port
land about a year ago. The fourth
is Frank Dinges, who was excused
from jury duty on account of sick
ness in his family.
The names of the men drawn in
to fill out the jury list are, H. M.
Flemming, farmer, Corvallis; Ed
Buxton, carpenter, Corvallis; J, W
Buster, farmer, Alsea; and W. A.
Bates, accountant, Corvallis.
So far as known the only trials
to come before the jury at the com
ing term will be the Corvallis .liq
uor cases. There are no civil cases
requiring a jury on the docket, and
nothing is known of matters to
come before the grand jury or dis
trict attorney aside from the cases
growing out of the operation of
Mike Kline's establishment.
For OAC Bested Willamette Twenty
. Eight to Naught Great Game.
In play more brilliant than any
ever put up by a team of the in
stitution, the OAC men visited dis
aster upon the powerful Willamette
University eleven at football last
Friday. The game was on college
field, and the score 28 to o, in the
favor of Steckle's men. Two touch
downs in the first, and three in the
second, with three goals kicked by
Cooper are the story of the $atne.
The formations delivered by the
OAC men fell with telling effect on
the Salem line and ends from the
very first and the advantage was
followed up with such vigor that
Bishop's men' never got a chance to
rally. The Steckle tactics of
sweeping the enemy from their feet
and of showering plays on them
with increasing energy were ad
ministered with flawless accuracy
and marvellous power, with the re
sult that Willamette was completely
outclassed and was never actually
in the play,
Salem never made the five yards
necessary to carry the ball beyond
a third down. Her attempted advan
ce! of the ball during rhe game was
probably less than half a dozen
yards. Steckles men carried the
ball a sheer 440 yards, requiring
155 yards for the first touchdown,
77 for the second, 27 for the third,
75 for the fourth and 108 for the
fifth. OAC fumbled the ball but
once. Cherry's passing of the oval
being remarkable in view of the
fact that he was for the first time
playing in a regulation eleven. Sa
lem profited by the fumble, and this
with twice that she held O A C for
downs and once that Rinehart punt
ed oa a first down was the only time
she had the ball save on O A C's
single kickoff.
In the game, Steckle s men ex
ecuted 79 plays in their 440 yards
of advance, Captain Root took the
ball 22 times and in all advanced it
134 yards. Dolan carried the ball
17 times and netted gains ot 109
yards. Abraham was given the
oval 16 times and earned 66 yards, i
Walker 13 times and advanced 64
yards, Griffith, nine times and net
ted gains of 59 yards, Rinehart car
ried it twice and gained 8 yards.
A great factor in the victory was
the behavior of the Agric line.
When the Salem men hurled them
selves against it, they nearly al
ways bounced back from the im
pact netting a loss instead of a gain.
Eq-Captiin Long of the Willamet
tes, who helped to tear fhe Eugene
line in fragments at Salem, said,
after the game, that no aggregation
on the Coast could have smashed
the OAC line as it played that day.
A factor in the offense was Walk
er and Dolan at tackles. Both were
used freely in attacks, both as in
terference and carrying the ball
and their great weight with that
of the heavy backs told with trem
endous effect on the defense of the
Salemites. The lineup was as fol
