" 1 First Game of Season Draws Large Crowd. V City Championships on Mat and in Ring Are to Be Decided. CLASSES ARE WELL FILLED Heavyweight Bouts In Boxing Divi sion Are to Be Feature of Two Jfigtat Contest at Malt- . nomah Club. A large percentage of the cleverest young boxers and wrestlers from among the amateurs of Portland will be seen in competition for the championship of the city in a tournament that begins at the gymnasium of the Multnomah Amateur athletic Club tonight. Director Frank, who Is actively In oharge of the meet, is highly pleased at the number and class of the entrlea from the various Institutions outside of the Multnomah Club, which organliation. Itself, will have the larger percentage of entries. However, the entries from Tommy Tracey's Athletic Club, Police Department Athletic Association, Teting Men's Christian Association, Portland So cial Turn Verein. Catholic Toung Men's Club. East Side Athletic Association and several other clubs, as well as the unat tached entries, comprise enough talent of marked ability to insure high-class bouts. Butler Is Clever Man. A. feature of the city championship tournament in the boxing division will be the competition between three heavy weights, for in the previous boxing tourn aments held here by the Multnpmah Club there has been a scarcity of big men. This was most noticeable during the championships held at the Lewis and Clark Fair when Big Al Kaufman, of the Olympic Club, was unable to appear because there was no opponent in his division. In Russell E. Butler, Multno mah has a fine athlete. Butler was a former member of the football squad, and is said to be remarkably clever at the boxing game. Since the Installation of a gymnasium for Portland's Police Department In the Union block, a large number of the ' younger members of the force have taken advantage of the opportunity offered for athletic development, and several are fol lowing boxing and wrestling. The police have entered three boxers in the city tournament. Ben F. Wade and Lawrence Madden, heavyweights, and H. I. Taft, a 145 pounder. Wade and Madden are entered In the same class with Butler, of the Multnomah Club, and In them the Multnomah man will find opponents of considerable merit. As all three are about evenly matched their performances will undoubtedly prove among the most taterestlng competitions of the two nights' tournament. Draw Lots at Ringside. Just which pair of heavies will come together tonight has not yet been de cided. The formality of drawing lots will probably take place at the ring side tonight, and the odd man will hold over until the finals tomorrow night. The interest in the wrestling contests la centered in the possibilities of the entries from other than the Multnomah Club, for O'Connell's boys are all In first class condition and very little Is known Df the other entries. The Multnomah grapplers are figured to win, but they may be surprised for several tfM men are numbered in the entries sen(T In by the Turn Verein. T. M. C. A. and Police Association. Just how good they are is not known outside of their . respective organizations, for none of them have appeared In Multnomah Club competi tions before. Naturally these entries come In for discussion in club circles, and the Multnomah entries have been warned lot to become overconfident. The list of entries and the classes are la follows: Boxing.

CLUB ELEVEN HOE Multnomah Hopes for Return Game With Oregon. WOULD BE FEATURE CARD Playing of Post-Season Contest Will Depend on Attitude of Col legians Toward Post Season Meet. BT W. J. PETRAIN. Disappointed by their defeat by the University of Oregon Saturday, but not the least discouraged, the members of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club football squad returned to Portland yes terday and were welcomed with open arms by their fellow clubmen. "Beaten by two feet," is the way the Wultnomah men style Oregon's victory, for Plowden Stott missed a goal from the Held by that small margin, and this score would have tied Oregon's score made by Dudley Clarke early in the game. Captain Latourette and Manager George McMillan expressed satisfaction at the result, though they firmly believe that Multnomah will be able to reverse the decision if given a return game. Of course the possibility of the two teams coming together once more, while it would mean a financial boon to Oregon, is entlifely dependent on the willingness of the collegians to play a post-season game. Furthermore, a post-season game be tween Oregon and Multnomah immedi ately after the regular varsity season Is concluded ought to be the best football card of the season, for the Portland era, especially In view of the fact that Oregon and Multnomah have always proven the most attractive rival football elevens to meet In this city. In the II years they have played together Port land has never been denied an annual game. The returning football players have nothing but the highest 'of praise for Coach Forbes and the treatment ac corded the Multnomah delegation at the college city. In everything they were treated royally, and of the Oregon eleven Multnomah's gladiators speak in the highest terms, though some of the experts think Oregon needs more perfect teamwork before tackling the University of Washington bunch. How ever, as the Oregon-Washington game is scheduled ior Thanksgiving Day, Coach Forbes has plenty of time to perfect this style of play. Referring to the Oregon-Multnomah game. Manager McMillan last night had the -ollowing to say: "Multnomah has met the University of Oregon on the gridiron in an annual battle for 13 years, and each year the contest has been marked by one of the grandest struggles of the football sea son. Saturday we suceumbed to Oregon because Dudley Clark was the more ac curate punter and won his game for his varsity with a field goal from the 25-yard line. I am well pleased with the work of the Multnomah team as a whole, and especially with the show ing made by Root, Ludlam. Templeton and Moores, all new members of the team. "I would not venture to predict that Coach Forbes has a champion team, but one thing is sure, and that is he has as fine a collection of clean-cut, bona fide Oregon athletes on that eleven as can be boasted of by any other insti tution. Furthermore, Coach Forbes has taught more than one man to play foot ball on that Oregon team, and when he leaves there his successor can depend upon finding a nucleus of a first-class eleven." The Multnomah gridiron gladiators will now rest up until Thanksgiving day, when they are scheduled to meet Coach detzrer"s Oregon Agricultural College eleven on Multnomah Field. They will hold regular practices as in the past. Next Saturday the football squad will take in the big game be tween the University of Idaho and the University of Oregon, which Is slated for Multnomah Field. SEASOX'S OPENING POSTPONED Indoor Baseball League to Begin Series Xext Monday. Instead of inaugurating the Indoor baseball season tonight as previously an nounced, the Portland Indoor Baseball League has postponed the first game until next Monday night, November 15. The same series of games as scheduled will be played, the only difference being the cancellation of the first two dates. As the league resembled more of a commercial organisation than anything else the Catholic Young Men's Club de cided to withdraw from it. but the players of that team will represent a mercantile establishment, continue in the organiza tion and play out the scheduled dates al lotted the club. - At a meeting to be lield at the offices i i Ti. 1 X - - - i S;;?,!;,.;:: of Harry K. Smith, president of the league, Tuesday night, the new arrange ment will be perfected and umpires for the season named. The games will be played In the gymnasium of the HJBt Side Athletic Club In the Healey building. TWO GAMES AT VANCOUVER One Portland Team Wins and An other Is Defeated. VANCOUVER, Wash.. Nov. 7. (Spe cial.) Two football games were played on the Trl-Clty ball grounds here today. St. James' College defeated Stephens Amateur Athletic Club, of Portland, by a score of 16 to 0. Both teams were well matched, but the Vancouver players had the advantage of better team work. The Columbia Athletic Club, the second team of St. James' College, of this city, was beaten by the Highland Tigers, of Portland, the score being 6 to 0. The weather was ideal for the games, but rain began to fall before the spec tators could reach their homes. Detroit Beats Havana. HAVANA. Nov. 7. The Detroit base ball team today defeated the Havana team by & score of 5 to 3. RUSH WON BY FRESHIES FIRST BAG FIGHT AT O. A. C. IS BIG SUCCESS. Students Engage in Muddy but Bloodless Struggle, as Substi tute for Hazing. OREGON AGRICULTURAL. COLLEGE, Cbrvallls, Nov. 7. (Special.) The fresh men and sophomores settled their class rivalry once and for all on' the athletic, field yesterday In a contest which proved highly entertaining to the spectators and entirely satisfactory to the contestants. The freshmen succeeded in placing six of 11 bags behind their opponents' goal and were thereupon declared winners by the committee of upper classmen, who acted as judges of the contest. A spirit of friendly, but Intense rivalry prevailed througnout. Soaked with water and smeared with mud and with their clothes torn from their backs the contest ants left the field uninjured and happy. Even the vanquished seemed satisfied at having had an opportunity to maul their young rivals. The opposing classmen were lined up on the goal lines of the football field and at a signal from the referee the 400 young gladiators charged for the cen ter of the field and the 11 bags of ex celsior. They came together at the center and for a few seconds there was a seeth ing mass piled up on the center line. Then It broke up into 11 groups, each centered upon a bag. For 20 minutes they pushed and pulled each other about the field. Several times the judges were compelled to break up a mass of men who had become hopelessly piled and tangled ud over a seek. At Intervals the spectators were electri fied at seeing a mud-smeared and ragged youngster suddenly dart out from a pile and rush down the field with a sack under his arjn. Thus the contest pro ceeded until the freshmen pushed the odd bag over their opponents' goal and won the first annual bag fight. The contest was introduced as a whole some and harmless substitute for hazing. A campaign has been waged against hazing for the past three years and while highly successful there has seemed to be something wanting to make the abolition absolute. The bag contest promises to provide this requisite. NEWLY-CHOSEN OFFICERS OF p T 7"i ...... 'X$ i . i - l r- ' i ... ; - : t f t - ' CRICKETERS ARE VICTORS Defeat Nationals by Six Goals to One Dosers Handicapped by Cripples Team, While Winners Do Some Brilliant Work. The heaviest team of soccer players ever assembled as a unit In this city flocked together under the banner of the Cricketers yesterday afternoon at the baseball grounds. Twenty-fourth and Vaughn streets, and In a pluckily played game of soccer football beat the Nationals by six goals to one. . It was the opening Sunday game of the Portland Soccer Football League, and was in its way an experiment. A series of soccer games has been ar ranged to be played Sunday afternoons to accommodate those who work Satur day afternoons until 6 o'clock, and often after that hour. Sunday Is the only day on which these men have any leisure in the daytime, and, although most of them are Scotch or English, and there fore not used to 'Sunday ball, it is ar gued they might as well play soccer on that day as play pool or attend thea ters. Big Crowd Attends. The attendance was the largest seen at a local soccer game for some time, and as most of the spectators were friends of the players, enthusiasm ran high. The field was in a fairly dry con dition. The Cricketers had a finely or ganized team, and they played like cleckwork. Karr was at goal, Banham and Pratt backs, Mitchell. Eyles and Naylor halfbacks. Gray. Gregg, Albin son, McNicholas and Coppinger for wards. These players were dressed In football uniform, and they also wore football boots with regulation bars on the soles, to keep them from slipping and sliding In play. On the other hand, the Nationals came on the ground mi nus several of their regular players, and had to fill the vacancies as well as they could from volunteers. Several of these National players did not wear football boots, and In consequence could not very well keep their footing. But all the same they played their best. In the first half of 45 minutes Martin McNicholas, the Nationals' goalkeeper, showed he was In poor pnysical condi tion, and if the laws of the game had permitted, he ought to have been taken out there and then. The Nationals' full backs were fairly smothered by attacks again and repeated, and the Cricketers scored three goals In succession. At the second half the Nationals re lieved the pressure and by a pretty bit of passing and dribbling Stevenson scored one and the only coal for the Nationals, at 4:09 P. M. The Cricketers scored three more goals at 4:14. 4:30 and 4:40 o'clock. The Cricketers' goals were scored by Gray (3), Allison (2) and one in a mass play. Play Is 'Bunchy. Generally speaking, the play was bunchy and on this order: "When you see a ball, kick it." Only tracings of combination work appeared. Eyles played a well-placed game, but was too selfish in passing he ought to feed his mates more. Banham and Pratt, as full backs, were very good. Gregg and Al binson are two of the best forwards in this cit. The left fullback of the Na tionals, with the finest physique on the field, was the star of the bunch it was not possible to obtain his name. The other National players were good in spots, but regular team membership should be insisted on. Next Sunday af ternoon the Queen's Park team meets the Cricketers, and there will be fun. Some seem to think that the Queen's Park team is as good as that of the Multnomah Club. HOPE HELD FOR CADET SURGEON'S KNIFE USED ON MIDSHIPMAN WILSON. Operation Relieves Pressure on Spinal Cord of Injured Annap olis Quarterback. ANNAPOLIS. Md., Nov. 7. After lying in an almost totally paralyzed condition since the injury to his spine in the Villanova-Navy football game three weeks ago. Midshipman Earl D. Wilson, quarterback of the Naval Academy football team, was operated on this afternoon in an effort to save his life. "The operation was successful in every way," said the surgeons of the Navy who performed the operation. "Parts of the laminae of the fifth, sixth, fourth and third cervical verte brae were removed and the pressure from bone fragments was relieved. The casing of the spinal cord was opened and careful inspection was made. "It was found that the cord had been dangerously compressed beneath the fourth vertebrae, due "to the dislocation of that vertebrae. The patient left the table in excellent condition, with his chances decidedly improved. The outcome depends on the extent of the original damage to the spinal cord." It was found that above and below MULTNOMAH LADIES' ANNEX A CONSERVATIVE CUSTODIAN HIBERNIA SAVINGS BANK DOES A General Banking Business Pays' Interest on Savings and Time Deposits Cor. Second and Washington St. Portland, Oregon this point of pressure the cord was perfectly normal. Experiments by the surgeons' showed that while smaller and much compressed, there was some pulsations and signs of life in the in jured portion of the cord. CASEXOVA BOY MAY RECOVER Operation Performed on Fractured Spine of Injured Player. UTICA, N. V.. Nov. 7. Joseph Picker ing, of the Casenova Seminary football team, whose spine was fractured in a game with Colgate yesterday, was suc cessfully operated on today at the hos pital. The operation disclosed that both sides of the arch of the seventh cervicular vertebra had been broken and the spinal cord lacerated. The compressing bone was removed and, following the opera tion, the surgeon said the boy had a chance to recover. Pennant Raising Is Fatal. WATERLOO, la., Nov. 7. Roy Gra ham, aged 20, died tonight from in juries received in a pennant raising during the East High-West High School football game yesterday. He was injured in the right temple and was dazed for a time. He resumed work, but died in the evening. He was the son of a widow who is an invalid.
