battle changed, they became an ava
lanche of brawn and muscle.
Desperately the sons of Multnomah tried
to add another score. On defense it was
no use to try against the students. The
clubmen, grown old in football, tried
every trick known to the game. L,oner
gan, Fratt, Dolph, the veteran McMillan
and the rest of Multnomah's eleven
fought as they have never fought be
fore, but the first half endpd with the
ball in the center of the field. Time
and again there were spectacular end
runs, short, mighty plunges through the
center, but In spite of all Multnomah
could do the ball was kept In her terri
tory. James was sorely handicapped,
and while his punting was splendid for
a time, the injury to his right leg made
him leave the honor to Blanchard, who
managed to hold his own during the
first half.
In the second half the story was differ

found himself, and this was the end of ;
Multnomah's hopes. "Boot the ball" j
must have been the word passed by the j
coaches, and boot the ball Multnomah
did. And but for that turdy right foot
and that cool, clear head of this elon
gated youngster there would have been
no joy with the alumni and students of
Oregon. Never did soldiers take the Held
of battle with a greater determination
to win than did those eleven Oregon
men. Before the second half was minutes
old they were playing the clubmen off

their feet. The pace became terrific and
the compact of meeting bodies shook the
very ground. Back and forth the teams
fought, now trying end runs, now ex
changing punts until finally the ball was
on Multnomah's 23-yard line.
Trayed-for Chance Comes to Moores.
-Then came a chance for Moores, the
fpeedy. In tills lad's fleetness lay the
hopes of Oregon. The students prayed
that he get his hands on a fumble or
once be given a chance of a clear field.
It came Around the clubmen's right

leash. One, two, three, four, five, six.
even, eight, nine, ten, eleven yards he
wiggled and wormed, dodged and ducked
his way, with the entire Multnomah
team after him in full cry like so many
hungry wolves. On Multnomah's 12-yard'
line Moores faltered and stepped out of
bounds, but before the clubmen could
tackle him he was on their five-yard line.
Blanchard got him, but when they met
It was like a head-on collision. Moores
was knocked completely out and received
an ugly gash on his head. Blanchard
was also severely shaken up.
Doctors worked on the plucky player,
but the lips of the thousands of Oregon
rooters, the welling cry of victory in
sight was hushed, and their hearts
cramped in the horror of fear. Anxiously
they waited, but as they saw Moores
rise, his face a smear of blood and his
head swathed in bandages, the scream
of delight was curdling. Then courage
ously and calmly he wiped the blood out
of his eyes and went back into the game.
But fear Btill clung to Oregon, for now
two of Oregon's players were seriously
hurt. First It was Captain Chandler,
who, In spite of a broken nose, played
on to the end.
Once the blood was out of Moores'
eyes, Oregon was at Multnomah again.
This time they were not to be denied.
McKinney was sent through Multnomah
for three yards, then Clark was tried and

made three more. By this time the ball
was in front of Multnomah's goal posts
and Moullen kicked between the posts.
Now Multnomah's early score counted
for naught. Once more the ball was put
into play. Bishop, who went in when
James had to quit, kicked 55 yards. Then
followed a pretty exchange of punts in
which Moullen showed how clearly he
outclassed Mutnomah in this department
of the game. By his series of great
punts, Moullen kept Multnomah's goal
in constant danger. Time and again Mult
nomah braced, but the time was set on
the clocks. Moullen booted the ball from
Multnomah's fifty-yard line. It sailed up
and to the right and, as If by some devil
ish freakishness, the bounding oval
dodged Blanchard and Oregon got the
ball on the clubmen's 33-yard line.
"Now for a place kick!" howled the
yellow bedecked Oregon rooters, and they

made the day hideous with the cry. Twice
before Moullen had tried for a kick from
placement and Iwice he failed. He tried
the third time, and the ball, though it
sailed true, sank down live yards short.
The fourth attempt was blocked by
Bishop, but before a Multnomah player
could get possession of the ball, Moullen
had fallen on it. Now it was the fifth
time. It meant the game. People who
a second before were howling like Der
vishes stilled their clamor. A hush fell
over the field. Everybody without know
ing felt that the game was soon to
end. The strain was terrible. Men and
women clung to each other, as If waiting
the calamity of death.
Victory of Blood and Bruises.
Carefully a little mound of sawdust was
made and carefully Moullen measured the
distance to the goal posts. Then the sig
nal was given. Snap went the ball. Then
there was a boof, and up shot the ball,
turning end over end, but always sail
ing with deadly accuracy towards and
between the poles. Like a thing human
the ball seemed to collapse, and it sank
gently down on the spot -where victory
lay. It took fighting, it took generalship,
and it toqk brains to make that 8 to 4
score. It was a victory earned by blood
and bruises, but it was cleanly and well
earned.
So splendid was the playing on both
sides that it makes it difficult to give
or take away credit. Blanchard, when
he missed that punt, beat the ground
in the agony of despair. Up to this time
his playing had been faultless and his
tackling was both sure and deadly. It
was not a fluke, as some wish to call it.
It was simply the fortunes of the game.

and although Multnomah met defeat, the
clubmen should not feel too keenly the
result.
For Oregon, Moores, McKinney, Kuy
kendall. Hug, Pinkham, who made a bril
liant run, and Hammond, and, for that
matter, every player on the team helped
to earn the victory. The stars, of course,
were Chandler, Moores and Moullen. It
anything, Captain Chandler outgeneraled
Multnomah, and the way he handled his
team made the knowledge of Multno
mah's veterans count for nothing. Lon
ergan undoubtedly played the game of
his football career. His return of punts
was especially spectacular, and several
times he made long gains around the
ends. Kuykendall electrified the crowd
by some clever runs. Clark and Zacha
rias also did some pretty work. At cen

time, he broke through and downed
Bishop, Dolph and Ionergan in their
tracks. Keller had a bad knee and this
bothered him greatly.
When the whistle blew proclaiming the
end of the game, bedlam broke loose.
One old alumnus sat down unmindful of
the .mud and ooze of the field and wept.
Others cheered themselves speechless,
and as the frenzied mob of screaming,
howling thousands rushed pell-mell across
the field, men and women, in
their crazy joy, hugged and thump
ed each other on the back. All
of the bltteness that had' been
engendered during the game vanished.
People forgot that Multnomah had been
penalized time almost without number for
breaches of the rules. In receiving pen
alties Multnomah was not alone, for Ore
gon came in for her share of punishment.
This was the only feature of the game
that could be really criticised.
FIRST HALF.
Oregon Plainly Nervous at Outset,
But Players Soon Brace Vp.
Multnomah won the toss and kicked to
Oregon. James booted the ball over Ore
gon's goal line and the collegians kicked
from their own 25-yard line. Multnomah
could not gain and on the attempt to kick,
James, who was suffering from a lame
knee, kicked the ball straight in the air.
Oregon recovered the ball. After two
short line plunges Moullen sent a beauti
ful high spiral punt down the Held to the
club's 25-yard line. Blanchard ran in Ave
yards. It was plainly noticeable that the
varsity boys were nervous although they
were putting up a great game. On the
next down Lonergan got around Oregon's
end for a long spectacular run and car
ried the ball to the varsity's 3i-yard line.
Eugene seemed to be in a trance but on
the next down the halves woke up and
played like fiends. James made three
yards over tackle, Lonergan reeling off
eight on the next play just outside tackle.
Dolph carried the ball for three yards,
each dn twi successive downs but on the
next play half the Oregon line men broke
through the club line, throwing Lonergan
for a loss.
A roar arose from the Oregon rooters
as the collegians got the ball. Oregon
could not gain and Moullen dropped back
to punt. He sent a long high kick down
the field but it went out of bounds on his
own 35-yard line.
Multnomah could not gain and punted.
Clarke fumbled the ball on a sweeping
end run the next down, a Multnomah
player recovering it. It was Multnomah's
ball on Oregon's 25-yard line and It began
to look as though the locals would score.
Two fierce line plunges were checked by
Oregon without gain. James dropped
back and made a neat place kick from
Oregon's 25-yard line. Score: Multnomah
4. Oregon 0. It took just nine minutes for
the clubmen to score. This was the last
time that Multnomah had the ball in Ore
gon territory for any .length of time.

OREGON'S VICTORY POPULAR WITH GREAT,
HAPPY THANKSGIVING DAY CROWD
THERE is one place in Portland
where everyone smart set, plain so
ciety, stay at homes, and even the
ministers go; not because it is considered
the proper thing'to do but just because
they like it. And that, of course, is the
Thanksgiving football game. Tear after
year the big crowd gathers on the Mult
nomah field, whether it be sunny or
stormy weather. Tear after year they
yell themselves hoarse over Multnomah's
victory while the game Oregon boys and
girls wave a brave good-bye and declare
that another season the goal will be
theirs. When they made good this boast
yesterday afternoon the gridiron and
grandstands were not large enough to
hold the crowds, for they swelled to twice
their natural size through sheer en
thusiasm. The deafening roar of praise
which went up front Oregon was well
backed up by the Portlanders and the pip
ing tones of women's voices made not a
small portion of the grand choral.
"Here's to the U. of O!
May she ever grow!"
Sang out a pretty girl wearing the red
and white, while a gallant Oregon youth
came right back with the rest of it:
Here's to our sprouters.
Here's to our shouters, '
Here's to the girls we have kissed!!!
And then the whole crowd took it up
and gave the boost of its life.
It is a fact that all of Portland was
glad that Oregon won especially her
women fans. They fairly dote on Mult
nomah's oft won honors, but it was get
ting to be an old story and they have been
secretly sympathizing with the Oregon
boys for some time. Yesterday it all came
out and they handed the visitors their
justly won deserts right royally. They yell,
ed with frantic enthusiasm, while the large
contingent of young women wearing tho
yellow chrysanthemums fairly embraced
their heroes. Handsome women waved
their pennants and ribbons, they tore off
their flowers and tossed them to the vic
WHEN OREGON'S GOAL WAS IN
ing against such line plungers as Dolph,
Lonergan and James, seemed to give
them confidence and they went after
Multnomah with the light of battle in
their eyes. Hug tore through Kellar al
most at will and had the Portland center
looking like a school boy. Kellar how
ever, has bad knees and is easily put out.
Moullen booted the ball to Multnomah's
15-yard line, Blanchard running it in to
the 25-yard line. Here Multnomah was
penalized 15 yards for holding, which
placed the ball dangerously near the club,
men's goal line. James made a long punt
to Kuykendall who ran the punt back to
the clubmen's 35-yard line. Oregon could
not gain.' Moullen dropped back for a
place kick fr.om the 35-yard line but the
ball went wide of the mark. Lonergan,
who seemed to be every place and in
every play, was on top of the ball in an
instant and sprinting down the fipld.
Three of Oregon's best tacklers missed
him, but the massive MeKinney- overtook
the flying Irishman and brought him
down with a force that made the earth
tremble. Lonergan got to Oregon's 45
yard line before being downed.
Oregon seemed to be growing stronger
every minute and was putting up a
smashing game. Blanchard commenced to
send the club's heavy backs into the line
but almost every play was stopped before
being fairly started. James punted to the
varsity's 25-yard line, Clarke running back
to the 40-yard line before being downed.
Clarke made four yards on a line plunge
but Moore failed to get loose on the next
play, forcing Oregon to punt. Oregon was
penalized five yards for holding and on
the third down Moullen punted. Blanchard
caught the ball and returned the kick.
It was Oregon's ball in the center of the
field. Moora got away on the next down
for seven yards, but on the next play
Clarke fumbled after making five yards.
Multnomah got the ball on the fumble.
On the next down James was thrown for
a loss and on the second down punted to
Clarke, who ran the ball to the center of
the field before being downed.
Moullen punted on the first down to the
club's 30-yard line, where Blanchard was
downed in his tracks. Lonergan reeled
oft eight, but a Multnomah player had
held and the clubmen were penalized 15
yards. James punted from his own 15-yard
iine on the first down. On the club's 35
yard line Oregon failed on a forward pass
and a brilliant chance to score was gone.
Lonergan got loose on the next play but
was stopped by the vicious McKinney
without gain. On the next play Mult
nomah fumbled the ball on her own 40
line. Horan plunged through the line on
the next play and Oregon failed to gain.
Moullen tried a place kick from the 40
yard line, but the kick fell short.
The remainder of the half was taken up
in punting, the honors between James and
Moullen being about even. The playing
was all in Multnomah territory, however.
The first half ended with the ball in the
center of the field in possession of Ore
gon. Score Multnomah. 4; U. of O., 0.
SECOND HALF.
In the second half Bishop went in at
torious players, and all went home quite
satisfied glad that Multnomali and Ore
gon were on a more equal footing than
formerly.
It is doubtful if anyone present enjoyed
the splendid game more than Portland's
grand old man. Judge George H. Wil
liams, who never misses this occasion.
He came early and watched each play in
tently, while W. W. Cotton peered over
his shoulder and argued the fine points
with him.
Across the field on the clubhouse
bleachers sat the Governor of Oregon
and his daughter; Father Hughes of St.
Lawrence, Father McDevitt of the Cathe
dral residence and several evangelical
ministers stood in the lines and evinced
keen enjoyment in the snappy plays. In
a prominent position on the east ide
of the gridiron Rt. Rev. Bishop Charles
Scadding and Mrs. Scadding sat with a
party of friends and saw their first Ore
gon game of football, seeming thoroughly I
to enjoy it. Just behind this party the
rooters were making things lively, but
no one seemed to mind it.
Old Multnoman, we have coma,
Just to put you on tha bum.
declared an Oregon University husky
through a megaphone, and as an echo
came a response from a Multnomah Ath
letic Association Club boy:

the ax! Where T
Right In the neck! Right In the neck! Right
in the neck! There!
In the automobiles and carriages the
guests stood up and joined in the gen
eral rooting. Both colors were repre
sented and the rivalry was good-natured.
The J. Wesley Ladds and the Jack Kol
Iocks were out in a carriage and seemed
to get more real enjoyment out of the
game than any other party present. Dave
Honeyman had his machine out with
Mrs. C. E. S- Wood. Miss Wood and Mr.
Zan as guests. Another machine held

left half, Dolph going to full. James
was very lame and could not remain in
the game. Pinkham, Oregon's freshman,
took Hammond's position at left guard.
A hoarse roar from thousands of voices
greeted the Oregon players as they trot
ted onto the field for the second half.
Multnomah had been outplayed during
the latter part of the first half and the
hopes of Oregon rooters were high. Mc
Kinney was lame but went in the game.
Multnomah sympathizers expected great
things of Bishop, but they were doomed
to disappointment. Bishop was not in
condition and had practiced very little
with the team.
Moullen kicked out of bounds on the
first two attempts. On the third kick
Multnomah got the ball on its ownr 25
yard line. Bishop made 5 yards on the
tirst play. Oregon was penalized 5 yards
for being off-side. The penalty was re
peated on the next down. Blanchard sent
a play into the line, but Arspinger got
through the line and threw Lonergan for
a 6-yard loss.
Blanchard, who did the punting after
James retired, from the game, booted the
pigskin down the field. Clarke caught
the ball and returned the kick. Lonergan
got the ball and made a magnificent re
turn of 15 yards. Chandler finally brought
him to earth, but in doing so received
a broken nose. The plucky Oregon cap
tain remained in the game till near the
close of the last half.
Lonergan seemed to be a wizard in
running in punts and it usually took
from three to four men to tackle him.
He was also hard to get off his feet on
end runs. No player has ever been on
Multnomah field who is his equal. Pink
ham got through the line on the next
down and stopped the play before it was
fairly started. Blanchard punted to
Clarke, and the Oregon half returned the
kick. Lonergan caught the return punt
on his own 35-yard line and ran in 15
yards before being downed. Bishop, how
ever, held Moores and Multnomah was
penalized 15 yards.
It was Multnomah's ball on her own
20-yard line. Blanchard punted to Ore
gon's 45-yard line and Clarke ran the
ball In 5 yaijls before being downed. At
this stage of the game Keller, who could
not stand the gaff of the husky Hug,
was taken out of the game. Hug con
tinually broke through the line and ham
mered Keller so hard and persistently
that the once terrible Dutchman was
groggy and unable" to continue the game.
Carlson, who took Keller's place, put up
a good game for a new man and deserves
special mention.
Moores Great Run.
At this juncture the event which threw
the Oregon rooters into a frenzy of de
light happened. The speedy collegians
had been hurling plays at Multnomah so
fast that the clubmen were fairly dazed.
Kuykendall, the nervy .little quarter,
made a long quarterback kick and the
speedy Moore gathered in the ball Like
a flash he was plunging through the
struggling mass, and before he was
downed had made 15 yards. Before any
one realized what had happened the ball
was snapped ad Moores was circling
Multnomah's loft end with the speed of
an antelope. Player after player lunged
veyances in the grounds, while a great
number were not brought in at all.
Sittlns- with the Bishop Scadding party
were Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Lewis, Miss-
Frances Lewis and the Alien lewises.
Mr. and Mrs. Ned Ayer and the Misses
Swith were together and Mr. and Mrs.

Miss Renshaw, Mrs. R. A. Booth, Judge
Harris and . Judge Chrissman. There
were great numbers of college students
and the delegation was quite up to date
on rooting for its heroes.
When the long and interesting game
came to a close the entire grandstand
and gallery was a unit In the toast:
"Here's to game old Oregon!"
at the flying half-back and still he sped I
onward. Several Multnomah players
were stiff armed, and in an instant he
was clear of the line of scrimmage, while
his pursuers were left far behind.
It began to dawn upon the immense
crov.-d that the looked-for event had hap
pened and the great Moores was loose.
He was rlenr nf nil pyppnt Blanchard.
Multnomah's quarter-back made a flying I
tackle, and there was a sickening thud
as the players came together. Blanchard
sank unconscious to the ground, while a
stream of blood spurted from Moores'
head. He was downed on Multnomah's
5-yard line, but had ste-pped out of
bounds on the 12-yard line. The ball was
brought back and carried in.
The flow of blood from the cut in
Moores' head was finally checked and
the gritty end went back in the game.
It was Oregon's ball in the very shurtow
of Multnomah's goal posts. Would Ore
gon soore? Thousands of voices from all
parts of the grounds pleaded with the
Oregon boys to carry the ball over. Slow
ly and deliberately plucky little Kuyken
dall called the signals. . The rooting
ceased and a grim silence settled over the
field. McKinney plunged fiercely into the
line and gained 4 yards. Multnomah was
lighting desperately and her defense held
like a stone wall. Clarke plowed over
tackle for two yards more and a groan
went up from the university adherents.
The ball was squarely in front of the
goal posts and Moullen. the famous place
kicker, dropped back for a try at field
goal. Kuydendall gave the signal, and
the ball sailed straight into his hands.
Oregon's line held like a stone wall while
Moullen coolly and deliberately booted the
pigskyi
in squarely between the goal posts.
Score Is Tied.
The score was tied up hard and fast,
and in addition Oregon was growing
stronger every minute, while Multnoman
was perceptibly weakening. As the ball
sailed over the goal posts pandemonium
broke loose. It was the first time in
ten long years that Oregon had scored
on Multnomah. Oregon had a yell a
coming and the rooters responded nobly
to the occasion. Moullen kicked to Mult
nomah nnd in a few minutes of fast and
fierce playing the hall was In Mult
nomah's territory. Blanchard punted to
Oregon's 20-yard line and from this point
Moullen and Moores worked a neat dou
ble pass for a 20-yard run and but for
Bishop, Moores would have gotten away
for a touchdown, as the field was clear.
Oregon could not gain and punted, down
ing Bishop In the center of the field.
Pinkham broke through the line on the
first attempt of Multnomah to advance
the ball and threw Lonergan for a loss.
Multnomah, after an exchange of punts
and a long end run by Lonergan, at
tempted a place kick from Oregon's 25
yard line. Zacharias broke through Mult
nomah's defense, blocked the kick and
fell on the ball.
From this time on it became apparent
that Multnomah's doom was sealed. A
kicking game was commenced and soon
the ball was In Multnomah's territory,
wiih Oregon wadina; through the clubmen
at will. Multnomah players seemed tired
and lacked the ginger and snap of the
varsity boys. Captain Chandler retired
in favor of Hawley. From this on the
battle was waged between the center of
the field and Multnomah's goal. Time
after time the clubmen would punt out
of danger only to find the varsity boys
plunging toward their goal line after a
few downs. Moullen gained on every
exchange of kicks, while Oregon's ends
were on top of every play. After working
the ball to the club's 25-yard line Moullen
tried a place kick, but missed by about
a foot.
After a few exchanges of kicks Kuyk
endall caught a punted ball and made a
30-yard run through the center of the
clubmen. It was one of the best runs
of the day and brought a storm of ap
plause from the grandstand. After a
.number of terrific line plunges and end
runs by Moores, the ball was planted on
Multnomah's 35-yard line. Here the club
men took a brace and checked Oregon's
whirlwind offense. Moullen made another
try for goal, but the ball fell short.
Multnomah was saved again btit after
a few exchanges the speedy varsity team
was again dangerously near Multnomah's
goal line.
Oregon Wins Game.
The old gladiators, and winners of a
hundred gridiron victories. ' fought hard
to prevent their younger opponents from
scoring, but in vain. Already Moullen
had missed twice and had dropped back
for another try from the 25-yard line.

Moullen booted the ball and It sailed
over the goal posts for the second field
goal and the game was won. Score, Uni

glee. The great feat for which Oregon
has fought so long was accomplished.

BETTER TEiI WON
Local Authorities on Football
Are Unanimous.
VICTORS ARE GENEROUS
Oregon Players Praise. Multnomah
Men for Clean, Hard Fight
Put Vp Lose Like True
Sportsmen.
The opinion is virtually unanimous
among local authorities on football that
Oregon outplayed Multnomah in yester- .
day's contest. "The better team won and
I am proud of the great game put up by
the boys," said Hugo Bezdek, Oregon's
coach. "Every man was a star and I
could not pick the best players. Owing to
the efforts of Trainer Hayward the play,
ers were in the pink of condition and this
told in the second half. The Multnomah
men played a hard, clean game from start
to finish and they are game losers."
"The first half was about an even break
owing to our stage fright," said Captain
Chandler, of Oregon. "The club had all
the better of it till after the first field
goal was scored, but from that time on
we had it on them. Lonergan is a won
derful player and the hardest man to
tackle 1 have ever gone up against. It
lias been said in the past that Multnomah
could not be defeated on her own grounds
and takes advantage of visiting teams. I
wish to say that we were treated
squarely and have no complaint to make.
If all the colleges in Oregon would come
up to Multnomah's standard of fairness
there would be no trouble or ill feeling
among the different colleges."
Dr. Fred Zigler, who has been assisting
Coach Bezdek. said: "Except in the first
tew minutes of play, Oregon clearly had
the better of the game. Every man on
the team played his game and I cannot
mention the stars. Some fear was felt by
Oregon when the redoubtable Bishop went
in the game, as he has a reputation, but I
think that he was the weakest player on
the team. His presence, if anything, help
ed Oregon to win. Multnomah played a
fair, clean game and I think tho canards
about Multnomah's dirty playing and her
alleged habit of taking advantage of visit
ing teams will not be heard in t lie future."
George McMillan, the old-time Mult
nomah gladiator, had little to say other
than that the better team won. "Lang
end runs, fine physical condition, and
fierce playing took the ginger out of Mult
nomah. I have always feared Moullen's
great kicking and It was this that de
feated us," he said.
"I am satisfied and think the entire
team is," said Captain Jordan. "Of
course I am disappointed at not winning,
but If we have to lose I am glad Oregon
is the victor. We did our best and iost
and I congratulate Captain Chandler and
his team."
The prophetic Martin Pratt of Mult
nomah strolled Into the dressing room
with a badly discolored eye and gave out
the following interview: "The kids from
Oregon handed us a package all right. I
feared as much when I saw them go after
the Washington team. The better team
won and I am mighty glad the youngsters
were our first conquerors this season.
For maiy years I have played against the
Oregon University boys and have felt that
Oregon must win some day. Oregon is far
stronger than any team we have met so
far this season and I think they should
be hailed as undisputed champions of the
Northwest."
W. Lair Thompson, nf Albany, speaking
of the game, said: "The game today was
the best I have ever seen, and the first
game I have seen Multnomah lose. I
want to say that my opinion of the ath
letic club team, formed during four years
of successive victories, has been crystal,
llzed by today's exhibition the clubmen
are clean, gentlemanly players, and gra
cious losers. To a man they have express
ed themselves as satisfied with the result,
and are glad that if they must lose, the
victor should be Oregon. This denotes a
spirit of good fellowship that is gratify
ing. The game was the cleanest, hardest
fought and most spectacular I have ever
witnessed. It was everybody's game until
the final whistle blew. If spectators were
not satisfied with today's game the social
athletic event of the season, they will
never be satisfied.
"The game was pulled off on time, there
were no useless delays, and the crowd
was in excellent humor. Oregon, having
striven so long for victory, is justly jubi
lant and may well be hailed champions."
