The football supremacy of the North
west will; be decided this afternoon on
Multnomah field. The University of Ore
gon has sent down Its fast team to play
the sturdy Multnomahs. They will line
up against each other at 2:30 this after
noon, and for two hours after that the
audience is promised momentary thrills
of excitement. The two teams have played
together for ten years, but neither has
been so well prepared for the struggle
before.
Multnomah is far heavier, has much
more experienced men and 'has had the
advantage of being trained by Chester
' Murphy, who is considered the beat-Informed
man on football '.on the Pacific
, Coast. Murphy will himself play quarter
i and direct the game " The line seems, un
I breakable. No college in the country had
J .such forwards as Multnomah this year.
The ends are taken care of by the old and
trusted players, Dave Jordan and Captain
Bowling. The halves, Corbett and
Horan, with either Dolph or Lonergan at
full, can execute any play football has
produced. Corbett is the fast and shifty
runner, Horan is unexcelled at sheer line
plunging, and Dolph is the best man for
opening holes and forming interference
the club team has. Lonergan is only
known by reputation, but his past per
formances give him as a bucking full.
- Oregon baa one great chance of win
ning this year. It has been coached all
season by "Dick Smith, who made a
sensation in the football world in the
East last year by turning out a good
team of football players from Columbia.
He was the whole thing as captain there.
He Is the whole thing as coach in Eugene.
He has taken a bunch of raw lads and in
a single season made of them football
players who will show the crowd today
rthe game as it should be played. Fast
and shifty plays, fierce line plunging and
unparalleled defensive -work against riext
. IO OVerwneimins weigut is vuuj:v,reguii
, will show. The field will be comparatively
fast, and Oregon will profit by that. Port
land has not been favored for a long time
with such football as Oregon will furnish
this day.
Oregon relies for victory on the Temple
ton brothers, Frank and Joe, at half,
and Xerren at fulL On a fast field they
will be at their best, and Multnomah
, will have to step lively" to corral that
trio. Jack Latourette at quarter is a
t heady chap, also, and he will put the
, plays where they will count. If Oregon is
defeated today it will not be because the
team was not worked right.
OREGON'S TEAM STRONG AND
ALERT.
It Is difficult to judge as to the prob
able outcome of the game tomorrow, for
no opportunity has been afforded to
compare the strength of the respective
teams. One thing Is certain, however,
and that -is that Oregon will be repre
sented by theffStrbrfgest team that has
ever been organized at the State Uni
versity. The team Is light, but the
playeis have been coached to take ad
vantage of every opportunity, and I ex
pect to give the clubmen the game of
the season. Every member of the 'Var
sity eleven la la perfect condition, and
the team should, play the beat game of
the season this afternoon. Unless the
Multnomah defense Is perfect, we should
advance the ball, for every man is in
every play. Joseph Tcmpleton. captain
of University of Oregon..
The ends are this good, at least, that
it will take a clever piece of formation
to box them; They have proved that
before. The line Is by no means so heavy
or powerful- as. Multnomah, and-h&E some
hard knocks coming to it today. Arn
epiger is reputed to be the tower of
strength, but he has an uncommon :clever
opponent in KIrkley, who has come
through a hard season In good shape.
Oregon's chances of victory He in per
fect condition, two good Victories to look
back upon,and the confidence that "has
been Inspired into them by their coach.
The officials today will be the same as
la the Oregon-Corvallls game, Kenneth
Hamilton, of San Francisco, and "W. Lair
Thompson, of Albany. They distinguished
themselves Saturday by the quickness and
fairness of their decisions and their
knowledge of the rule-book. They will
stick very close to rulings, and there
will be no time taken out during the
game except for Injuries.

DOLPH MAY PLAY TODAY.
Oregon Has Made No Formal Protest
Against Fullback.
Marion Dolph will probaDlyllne up, as
lullback with Multnomah against Oregon
today. In spit& of the hasty telegram
pent to Manager "Watklns by Manager
! Graham from Eugene Tuesday, stating
that the sentiment of the college was
against Dolph's playing, ho is more than
Jlkely to be in the game.
I Manager Graham told Manager Wat-
kins in Corvallis last Saturday to play
Dolph, that it would be all right Then
i he went back to Eugene and found the
,t college did not approve of the permission.
So he wired Watklns in order to give him
n opportunity to select another -fullback.
in case the matter went so far as a for
mal protest.
The two managers got together again
last night and Graham explained his posi
tion, which was not plain, to "Watklns, as
he had read the telegram in theilght of a
protest. "Watklns expects to call on Pres
ident Campbell himself this morning and
procure permission from him for Dolph
to play. Multnomah is not making this
stand for fear it will be seriously weak
ened, as Lonergan will make an able sub
stitute, but to put Dolph right before the
football world.
Oregon's objection to Dolph is that ho
was hired when he first left Williams to
coach the Oregon eleven. That of course
has never been denied, though Dolph's
pay was more for expenses than for.jjire.
Since that time, though Dolph bits fre
quently played with -Multnomah, he has
always refused, to play against Oregon,
"but this tyear, relying on Graham's'read
ily given permission, he has agreed to
stay with the team in the Oregon game.
He would willingly havo withdrawn be
fore, but now he is anxious to play to
show his good faith.
PLAYERS HOLD RALLY. '
Multnomah Club Boys fiave" Good
Trme Before the Game.
If concerted rooting helps to win a game
the M. A. A. C. football team will certain
ly be the winner in today's batle.
The members of the club held a football
rally last night in the clubhouse, and in
point oLattendance and enthusiasm it was
the greatestvsuccess oWts'kind.t '
Yells forthe purpose of stimulating the
winged "M"' players and urging them to
greater energies, yells of derision for the
opponents and yells of victory were prac
ticed last night, and If half the lung
power shown Is expended today it bodes
ill .for Vhe ardor of the wearers of tho
yellow.
A smoker given prior to the rally brought
much praise to its director, "Bob" Mc
Craken. A programme without a stale
number, was the verdict, and its rendi
tion justified the compliment.
A couple of clever boxing exhibitions be
tween Roberts and Dranga and Bottler
and Mapes were followed by a wrestling
match with -Franks and Dranga on the
mat. These events were clever to watch
and wero'weH received! - '
Dom J. Zan had to respond to three
encores, and Melvin K. Dodson was kept
on the floor with his character stories.
Through the courtesy of Messrs. Flood
and Keating, theatrical managers, Mr.
Samuels, Hebrew Impersonator, gave many
a club member an aching side from laugh
ter. His perfect impersonation of an old
Hebrew, his droll witticisms and his fun
ny parodies created a-oar of laughter.
Another vaudeville house also furnished
the acrobatic comedy team, Fyne and
Dandy. Some of the club members who
thought they had learned all the acro
batic stunts going received a surprise
when Fyne and Dandy got down to work.
The things they did -were funny in the
extreme, and furnished more amusement
than has been found in the -clubhouse for
many a day.
This part of the programme particular
ly appealed to Tom Ross. Multnomah's
MULTNOMAH SHOUtD WIN.
"We have. a etout line, fast, heavy
backs, and op 'that account should' win
In the game with Oregon. Our weight
will be In our favor, and we have had
much more team work this year than
usual. The drier the field the better
opportunity Oregon will have to more,
and I have not underestimated the
strength of our opponents so far as to
believe that .we will have everything our
-own way. We have a stronger"leven
than at any time since I have been a
member of the club, but it looks as It
Oregon were much stronger than usual.
"We will win, I am sure, but we will
have a run for our money. E. S. Dowl
ing. captain of Multnomah.
big guard. Ross thought that if he could
only do some of the stunts shown there
would be nothing to going through Ore
gon's line.
An orchestra varied the programme by
playing all the late popular airs, and the
refreshments served put the members in
the humor for the rally which followed.
ARTILLERYMEN COME TODAY.
Fort Stevens to Meet Local Y. M. C.
A. on Gridiron.
The Y. M. C A. football team has its
first opportunity to show Portland
what it can do in the way of football
this morning in the game against the
artillerymen from Fort Stevens. The
game will be played on Multnomah
Field. The Y. M. C. A. is not an insti
tution where football has flourished to
any great extent, and of recent years
it has practically given up the sport,
but this year a small squad has been
struggling manfully to get a start. Its
season istbarely under way now. u
Fort Stevens has "unusual strength on
the football field for an Army eleven,
having played Astoria to a standstill
several weeks ago. That was reported
to have been a pretty rough game. This
morning's contest will be characterized
by individual playing rather than by
team work.
Idaho Will Not Play Corvallis
CORVALLIS. Or., Nov. 23. (Special.)
The Thanksgiving football game be
tween O. A. C and the . University of
Idaho elevens has been abandoned by
m'utuaT agreement of the managers
Idaho was originally scheduled to play
Multnomah and O. A. C on the Oregon
tour, the two Oregon teams bearing
jointly the expense of the visitors.
After the Idaho-Multnomah gamo was
abandoned it was up to O. A. C 'to pay
th'e e'rttlrc-.expense, or- go to- Moscow to
play. Both teams were crippled, and it
was largely on this account that the
game was called on, tho arrangement
being satisfactory to both managers.
Astoria Game Called Off.
,JThB Astoriagame for, .Multnojnah's
second eleven has been called oti!l The
team was to havo gone down this morn
ing, but it was found out yesterday af
ternoon that Astoria would not guaran
tee any gate receipts, and the club did
not feel like standing the whole possi
ble expense, so the boys had to be dis
appointed in their sport. i

LOS ANGELES. Cal.. Nov. 23. The
scene that followed today's game between
Seattle and Los Angeles was the wildest
that ever took place on the local grounds.
The chief feature of the game was the
questionable decisions against the local
team by Umpire Brown, and as a result
Brown was slapped In the face by Flood
in the second inning, knocked down by
Frank Chance at the end of the eighth,
when the .game was called on account of

Portland was easy for the Tigers today.
Overall had the Webfooters on his staff

other shut-out to his credit, had not Cap
tain Graham failed to hold the ball in tho
eighth and permitted Kellackcy to make

home. The fielding of Beck of Portland
and Casey of Tacoma were features of
the game, both accepting several difficult

Tacoma to Havo New Ball Park.
TACOMA, Wash., Nov. 23. George M.
Shreeder, of the Tacoma Baseball Club,
has taken an option on. five acres of land
for a new baseball park. This is made
necessary, as the old park will soon be
unfit by reason of the grading of a street
which will cut off a strip SO feet wldo
from the rear.
"When tho ball season opens next
Spring," said Mr. Schreeder, "Tacoma
will have the best call park on the Coast.
Thereuwill bo plenty of room .for the play
ers, and new stands that will beat any
thing in the West.
"In reference to the reports about Spo
kanc trying to land the franchise, I tele
graphed to Dave Evans, who is in Fres

to investigate. He wired baqk that bo
couia nna no room lor such a rumor. In

RYAN-ROOT FIGHT IS A FAKE
Referee Leaves Ring In the Fourth
Round.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 23. The flcht
between Tommy Ryan, the middle-weight
pugilist, and Jack Root, of Chicago, the
light heavy-weight, which was scheduled
to go six rounds at the Nationar Athletic
Club tonight, was ended in the middle of
the fourth by the referee, Jack McGui
gan, announcing it a fake. It was ono
of the most unsatisfactory pugilistic af
fairs ever held In this city, and the specta
tors, long before the referee stopped the
bout, showed their disapproval of the ex
hibition the men were giving. Trouble
was averted by tho prompt work of tho
police in jumping Into the ring and pro
tecting the fighters and in clearing the
ball.
The managers of both fighters vehe
mently protested against the action of the
referee, but they found few sympathizers
in the crowd.
Ryan and Root were late in entering the
ring. After the spectators had been kept
waiting a half-hour. Referee McGuigan,
who has an interest In the club, an
nounced that the fighters were counting
-'the money In the box office He explained
that the house was a slim one. and that
each man wanted hi a money, before enter
ing the ring. Five minutes later Ryan
and Root appeared.
The men did nothing but feint In the
opening round, which was followed by a
light exchange of blows which left no
mark on the fighters. Ryan caught Root
lightly on the cheek and Root returned
with a light blow on the jaw. There was
more sparring, and then Ryan let go a
straight-arm blow to Root's mouth, which
did no damage. When the bell rang the
men were clinched. The spectators began
to hiss the men toward the end of the
round, and as they took their corners a
storm of disapproval was hurled at them.
In the second round not a solid blow
was struck. Both men swung wildly at
each other, tho blows in most cases fall
ing short of the mark. What few light
blows were struck were harmless. "Root,
as a rule, was the aggressor. All through
the second round the crowd hissed, and
kept it up after the round ended.
The third round was so palpably poor
that Referee McGuigan leaned against the
ropes and waved his hands in disgust at
the fighters attempt to mix It up. At the
expiration of the three minutes the bell
rang, but instead of sitting in their cor
ners the men thought it was tho "beginning
of the fourth round. The referee let them
go. He watched them mix up a little, and
then walked over to where the newspaper
men were seated and told them Root had
Just told Ryan to "mix It up." He watched"
them again attempting to land blows,
which they did without damage, and after
1 minute and 33 seconds had elapsed he
jumped through the ropes and left the
men in the ring alone. His action met
with the approval of the crowd.
The moment McGuigan left the men
half a hundred policemen, under the com
mand of a Captain, surrounded the ring.
Ryan and Root stood in their respective
corners, not knowing what to do and evi
dently afraid to leave the arena for fear
of harm at the hands of the disappointed
crowd. Suddenly a soda-water bottlo
which had been thrown from the gallery
dropped In the middle of the ring. Then
a score of policemen climbed through the
ropes and, waved their hands for the
crowd to calm down. Ryan and Root were
led to their dressing-rooms under heavy
escort.
Referee McGuigan said it was the worst
showing ever attempted in this city, and
felt sure tho spectators agreed with him.
He said the men were guaranteed $2500,
which they insisted upon getting before
entering the ring. As they had the money
he could do nothing but stop the exhibi
tion. FUREY IS BADLY BEATEN.
Fltzpatrlck Ends Fifteen-Round Bout
in the Fifth.
ST. LOUIS, Nov. 23. In the fifth round,
while Barney Furey. of Cincinnati, was
bent back over the ropes of the ring at
the West End Club tonight, Dick Fltz
patrlck, of Chicago, drove a straight right
with terrific force into his stomach, end
ing a scheduled 15-round contest.
Furey made a claim of foul, but stag
gered to his feet and rained blows on
Fltzpatrlck, who had retired to his cor
ner. Fltzpatrlck defended himself mo
mentarily without returning a blow, but
finally cut loose and again floored the
Cincinnati man. Furey was on the floor
at the end of the fifth round, and was
carried to his corner. When the gong
for the sixth round sounded Furey would
not respond. A physician who examined
him decided he had not been fouled.
Rellly-Flynn Fight Very Tame.
BUTTE, Moaf.. Nov. 23. Tommy Rellly
and Jimmy Flynn tonight ' fought eight
fake rounds, it being understood that If
both men were on their feet at the end
the bout would be declared a draw.
The men at first refused to go on be
cause of the slim crowd, but were finally
Induced to appear, the crowd yelling and
clamoring for its mosey and threatening
trouble.
The two men made hardly a pretense of
fighting, sparring and clinching, mean
while exchanging remarks and smiling at
each mother, at one time shaking hands.
The crowd kept up a continual cry of
fake and left the theater disgusted. The
fight was held under the auspices of the
Montana Athletic Club.
