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.

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

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

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.

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

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.

STAR'S NEW SHOW PLEASES ALL.
Big Crowds See Motion Picture that Almost
Seem to Speak.
Th wet weather yesterday did not
dampen the enthusiasm of the Star's pat
rens nor diminish record-breaking crowds.
The show from a motion-picture standpoint
was a wonder and the feature, "From Cabin
Boy to King." one of amusing romance,
adventure and fun. pleased all and caused
as much real merriment m as any Broadway
melodrama ever played.
There was. in addition to this, a tale of
diplomatic duplicity. "Sealed Instructions."
in which an actor plays President Taft to
the very life. On the programme ao were
several excellent comedies. Jean Wilson's
song was well rendered and the illustrations
accompanying It were more than usually
fine. The crowning merit and novelty of the
bill lav in the remarkable whistling of
little Danny AJiern. Without artificial aid
of any kind he whistled operas and popu
lar selections and imitated bird and other
things in a clever, classy manner. He was
encored at every show. Six thousand peo-
gle saw the various shows and this was a
reakmg of all previous records. Same bill
