In the Interclub matches of interna- tlonal aspect held las night, at the gym ' rasium of the Multnomah Amateur Athlet i Jr. Association, for the winged "M". dis- I elples of boxing and wrestling proved classier performers In each Interclub ' event than were the visitors from over th Northern border. The programme of event.- was another triumph in t!ie matter or staging anrar t're ni Interesting athletic events, for every bout was a rattling good perform . anoc and the big crowd, whioh eclipsed ! anv rjre.vlous assemblage at club affairs. was keenly appreciative of the n?rtt of ' the bouts. 'Multnomah Makes Sweep. Multnomah practically made a clean ' sweep, for the only defeat sufTered hy the ; winged "M" was the loss of the heavy : weight wrestling contest, whtch. bow i ever, was purely a local event insofar as i K. B. Vinson. Multnomah's strenuous 1 grappler. lost to A. H. f teeples. the crack ' heavyweight of the Portland V. M. C. A. In the other events Multnomah was trl . umphant. winning all four interclub con tents decisively. Aside from the boxing bout between Richie Hewitt and little Mcrrltt McCarl. which was a return engagement between these lads, the feature event was the middleweight boxing bout between C. O. Ralph, of the Multnomah Club, and A. K. McGraw. of the Vancouver. B. C, Ath letic Association. Recently he has shown much improve ment, but no one expected the speed and ability displayed by him last night', for the young fellow overwhelmed McGraw bv such marvelous boxing ability that the Vancouverlte was all hut out when Jiis seconds tossed, up the sponge Just be fore the gong sounded to conclude' the second round. McGraw is by no means a poor boxer, for he displayed flashes of class when lie had the opportunity. Ralph proved a willing mixer. Right now he is In line to become a champion among the ania' teurs of the Northwest, and the Multno mah Club will undoubtedly extend him the opportunity of winning the title. He deserves it. Ralph's performance simply shows what a determined young fellow can do if he applies himself. Bantams Reverse Decisions. The hantam battle between Merrltt McCarl and Richie Hewitt simply re versed the decision of their previous meeting, when the former scored over Hewitt in the second round during the city championships. The return bout prcved disastrous for McCarl. for the little chap made the mistake of rush ing Hewitt and trying to repeat his previous performance. " and Hewitt, having had more experience, simply lay in wait for his opponent and suc ceeded in scoring a clean knockout. Ji that McCarl'p bulldog tactics had their effect, for he had Hewitt plainly worried. It was a rattling bout, and neadwork and coolness alone won for Hewitt. The Hewitt-McCarl bout was the first of the boxihg vents. and this whetted the fans' appetites for the strenuous bout between Ollie Dranga. of the Multnomah Club, and Jack Lawler, of the Vancouver Club. Lawler proved a foxy boxer, some thing on the Ji Neill order, but Dranga was easily his master. Lawler was plain ly in distress in the third round, and it was undoubtedly this aspect that caused the Judges to give the decision to Dranga without calling for the "customary extra Tound. Ollie might have terminated the bout before the third round had he not been too strong in. his rushes. The next bout nroved the only engage ment in which the Vancouver boy had a chance, for Jack Newcombe. the visit ing Impound boxer, and E. E. Wilson. Multnomah's entry at-that weight, were even up at tne conclusion of the third round, but the extra round called for proved the undoing of the Vaneouverite. Newcombe. wore a perpetual smile until the extra round, for a straight left was brought into connection with the visitor's Jaw and while he was not knocked out lie held on at every opportunity. At the conclusion of the round the judges de cided Wilson the winner. In the wrestling bouts the surprise of the night occurred when A. H. Steeples defeated B. K. Vinson, Multnomah's deaf mute grar-pler. Strong Holds Broken. Steeples, who lost the first fall to Vin son, when the latter applied his favorite and crushing body sciseors hold, came hack strong and succeeded in breaking this hold frequently In the next two bouts, both of which he won. Vinson won the first fall in 2:18, while Steeples scored in the second in 1:30, while the last bout went ten minutes before Stee ples fastened a body scissors on Vinson, and the Multnomah grappler was unable to resist it successfully.- Steeples is a heavyweight wrestler, while Vinson wres tles in the middle-weight- as well as heavyweight division. W. J. Campbell, of the Vancouver CB. C.) Athletic Association, the only wrestler sent here by that club, proved a willing fellow, as well as possessing considerable class. Still Oscar Franske, Eddie O'Con nell's clever pupil, proved his master by winning two straight falls in a classy ex hibition. Bert "Farrell. official spieler, announced that the Catholic Young Men's Club would, hold a boxing and wrestling tour nament on December 5, and that the Mult nomah Club entries would appear there that night.

Trick Plays Abound. By consistent use of straight football and a number of well-executed forward passes and on-side, kick plays. Washing ton High School wrested the 19"8 inter- scholastic football championship from Columbia University by the score of 5 to 0 yesterday afternoon on the Multno mah Club gridiron. The game was spectacular, with fre quent open plays used by both teams and good work by the v ashington back field. one thrilling play following another. It was no walkaway for either team. At times, when It seemed the Washington lads were about to get away for touch downs, the Columbian buckled down in desperation and turned their line into a ston wall. It was1 the work of Jones, the Washing ton right half.- that brought the only touchdown of the game. He worked like" a human catapult. Tearing around the ends, he bowled over taoklers and carried the ball repeatedly for gains of from 6 to 30 yards. Given the ball sev eral times in succession, he carried it through the opposing players as if they were so many dummies. The touchdown was scored from the 17-yard line. .' By "yesterday's, demonstration Jdnes proved himself the star halfback of the league. He has been kept in the back ground this season because of injuries, but yesterday, going into the game In good condition, he easily stood out from among the rest of the players. The Washington back field, consisting of Munly. weighing only 130 pounds, at left half. Ed Leader at full andJones at right half, was the strongest football combination seen In Interscholastic cir cles this season. These boys made large and consistent gains on straight football, executed their forward passes with fa cility and played each other's interfer ence effectively. Cornell was strong in generallng his team , and In all-around flaying. Aya. Kelleher and Perkins, playing back for Columbia, performed well, but were not In a class with their opponents. Both teams used forward passes and on-side kicks frequently and effectively, but there were also several failures on attempted trick plays that resulted dis astrously. The Columblas made practi cally all their gains on open plays, and In this department they outshone their rivals. Washington mixed Its trick plays with steady work in straight football and covered more ground. Both teams were penalized frequently and nearly as much ground was lost as was gained by each team. Most of the penalties were due to uncompleted for ward passes, but there were also sev eral on account of off-sldo play. Wash ington was penalized 15 yards on two different occasions when apparently about to score touchdowns. Time was taken out frequently for in juries to Columbia players and three changes were necessary in., their line-up on this account. The Washington line up remained the same during the entire performance and the team seemed to be fresh at the end of the game. Washington. Position. Columbia Anunscn L.

Bill -Main taking Iris place. Taylor Shoots Across Goal.. Oregon's second touchdown was made with but two minutes to play, after the ball had surged from . one end of the field to the other In a magnificent punt ing duel between Latourette and Wolff. A forward pass by Wolff from the center of the field was- Intercepted by Halfback Taylor for a tO-yard run to O. A. C's 40 yard line. Latourette made a 30-yard klcli.. which Hickaon recovered on the 6-yard line. On the first down, Taylor, on a tackle buck, shot out of the scrim mage and around the .left end for an other touchdown. He kicked his own goal. The very last play of the game was most sensational. With half a minute to play. Wolff kicked off to Latourette, who ran back 10 yards and returned the kick while on the ruri. The leather fell squarely' into Wolff's hands. Last Play Is Spectacular. He in turn, without a second's hesita tion hooted it back. Oliver Huston, the sprinter, who was finishing the game at right end, caught it and ran 40 yaras down the side of the field with the Ore gon Interferers knocking off tacklers right and left. Just as he had almost a clear field for a touchdown, Huston stumbled, and before he could ' recover Wolff had downed him with aT flying i.rkl. on O. A C's 40-yard line. The game ended before the team could line up again. When the game was over, members of h. nrprnn eleven and the rooters were unable to withhold their enthusiasm. They took Coach Forbes, to whose superb coaching they attributed their success. and carried him oft the neio on ineir h,,i,irt if it had not been for the many substitutes developed by the Ore gon coach along the lines or tne iaie coaching system. Oregon, with four crip pled players, could not have nopea o win today. Keck, Crippled, Is Plucky. Oregon entered the- game with Clarke. Main, Walker and Giles on the side lines from Injuries. Their places were taken by Michael, who did the punting; Scott, Sullivan and Storie. Clarke later played five minutes in the second half, and Main went in when he was injured again, and finished the game. O. A. C. was severely handicapped by the injury to Keek's ankle. In the first half this sterling player put up a splendid all-around game. and it was not until he was compelled in the second half to quit the ame that Oregon scored. O. A. C." began the game by outplaying the Oregon men and tearing through for big yardage several times. Keck took Michael's kickoff and returned it 25 yards. On his first try he hit the Oregon line for six yards and again for ten. A pen alty forced him to punt, the kick being blocked, but recovered by Keck, who then punted 35 yards.

After several punts and another for ward pass from Latourette to Kiltz, Taylor tried a place kick from O. A. C's 35-yard line.

The work of the Oregon men showed vast improvement over their game against Idaho In Portland. Superb coaching, superior generalship, open playing and better handling of punts by Latourette were the main elements of the Oregon victory. t Enthusiasm Runs Riot. Four thousand persons lined lie Arthur Field, and cheered with all the fiery partisanship of college students. The rooting of the two contingents was a feature. Before the game the O. A, C.

BOSTON, Nov. 19. -Football fever is epidemic in Boston tonight. The game between Harvard and Tale the climax of the season to be played in the Har vard stadium tomorrow, is almost the sole topic of conversation.

The injured list is nearly wiped out. Captain Fish, of Harvard, who received an injury to the chest, was reported in good condi tion. Each team is expected to un cover spectacular plays with the old fashioned line plunging, frequently varied with forward passes and on slde kicks. In this branch of the game Tale is acknowledged to be su perior to Harvard, as Coy can prob ably outklck Minot. The Blue ends. Kllpatrick and Savage, are faster than L. D. Fmfth and Browne, of the Crim son. Phllbin, "one of the Yale backs. Is regarded -as a wonder in running back punts. But the Harvard line, from tackle to tackle, is believed by close follow ers of the game to be more aggressive than that of Yale, while in line plung ing Minot is held to be a more con sistent gainer than any Tale back.

"I'm tired of California, and flad ex pected and yet hope to manage a Port land Northwestern League Club next year. "This country looks good to me and, honestly. California is so rotten it even chokes an old war-horse like me. You can say for me that I'm with the North westerners in this fight. I'd like to set tle some old scores down there.

"The Northwestern can win. if they go into the battle right. Portland fans will be with them now, where they might not have been last Summer. The play has come up just right and the Northwestern League will never have another chance aa good as this to grab the best baseball city on the Pacific Coast, year in and year out. "The National Association Is so hope ful of getting every baseball league in the country under its thumb that it will listen pretty carefully to the Northwest ern League's claim if it thinks we really mean fight up here, and I shouldn't be surprised if they would interfere and help bring the Coast to terms."

AGGIES NOT UNDERESTIMATED Multnomah Club Training Diligently for Thanksgiving Day Game. Multnomah's football warriors, who are scheduled to meet the Oregon Agricul tural College eleven on Multnomah Field Thanksgiving day, are preparing them selves with more than customary vigor. The reason for the clubmen's interest In the coming game is that O. A. C. has threatened frequently to take the laurels away from the club, and as Coach Rlehs ger has a formidable eleven at Corvallis. the clubmen are determined to be pre pared. Several members of the Multnomah squad visited Eugene yesterday to inform themselves of the Aggies' style of play against the University of Oregon, and while they have not yet returned to re port on the game, one of them tele graphed after the first half that O. A. C. was 'a "hard nut to crack," and that Multnomah would have to be in fine shape to win.
