near Granger and is well known
here. How his daughter, aged 28!,

'Miss Melcina Palmer this morn,

uncle and nephew were sitting to-

0. A. C'and University of . Oregon
Teams Play Each Other to a Stand
still at Football
The annual game of football be
tween the State University) and
O. A. C. elevens was played on
College field Saturday afternoon,
and pigskin history will record that
it was scoreless. : It was a game to
satisfy the most : exacting enthus'-j
iast. 'At one time. OAC had it al-
most in' her, grasp, when ' Wolff's
good right leg sent the' sphere spin
ning within a foot of a field goal.Eu
gene, lit ewise, was once within reach
of it when OAC fumbled and gave
the University the ball on the Col
lege fifteen yard line.. ' The .Uni
versity men were poor at ; handling
the ball, however, and they f umbled
back to OAC, by the act,' fumbling
away the one and only chance they
had during the long thirty" minute
halves" to score;-' '"' ' '.; I . ''" !
' The two teams were ' ; not ' ' jilly
matched. . OAC was' fifteen pounds
lighter to' the main but played " with
a spirit and dash 1 that completely
counterbalanced .the lack, of, beef j
They couldn't smash the heavy
University line for gains, but they
didn't need to. They were betteif
punters,' their back field was better
in handling' punts, and their ' ends
were faster and-better -; in getting
down on punts. r The University
players were better ' at rushing the
ball and had a better ' lnterferenceJ
They made yardage with consider?
able consistency for a part of the
first half, but after being driven '4 0
yards or so! the '. AggieS tallied and)
stopped tneif big M opponents' evCn
for losses and thereafter the Univeri
sity bunch ' made no 3 more cdrisist
ent gains by rnshlng tactics." After
that the game resolved itself large
ly into' a panting auel . Jt Vanea ' wi
occasional good runs by Moords for
the!Uhiversity.'J;TheTonger pUiits;
and the better handling of them gave
UAC a nig advantage'- wrtH the te
suit' that in the- second 'half the' Cot-i

on the 'firing line: r ' Mdullen
Was" hutried irl to ;punt: and ' was
easily beaten at : the ; 1 business by
Wolff. Hug, who1 entered the game
as head lineman s. was 1 takeri fromi
that atcient and hbnbrable pdsitibn
and sent to center,; where Cherry
was badly outplaying :' his natagori-j
ist.- It may be added that Cherry
actually did not know 'until " after
the game that the change had been
made.' - 1 Hnvi.h .-.t i
The University has a team J of big
men. l heir average weight is' I74J
OAC's only taveraged rQ lpounds'.
The excellent '' showing1 by1 -the
lighter and less ' experienced ' team
is largely due X.6 1 the5 'deterinihed
and reckless spirit with which they
went into the game. It was R'on'e;

whose playing was a .. .revelation
was Dobbin, at whom a fierce in

invariably smashed it with , an -ac
curacy and dash that never failed.

a 30 yard run but was stopped in
the nick of time hy Gagnon. OAC
got the ball after .a few plays and
booted it far back into Eugene's
territory. An interchange of punts
netted OAC 20 yards, and Moullen's
failure to punt latter . he went in
lost more ground for the University
Harding'captured OAC's bwh punt
and the punting duel which the
game by this time had developed
into, proceeded, OAC gained more
and more of ground until when
time was called Eugene was cn her
own 20 yard line and gradually
falling back before the Colleeians.
