'otter, left tackle: Ghee, quarter; Ftussell. right half, and Rice, fullback, .were lie stars of the Oak rark t-am. None of the Wenatchee players showed to advantage. The Chicago team started the tame rlth a rush and would have scored in the first quarter but for the Interfer ence of the bell.

Crowds Gather Early. As early aa o'clock yesterday morn ing the crowds commenced to gather on the Hawthorne and Morrison-street bridges, as well as upon the docks on both sides of the river, and a conserva tive estimate of the number of persons witnessing the awim is placed at 15,000 persons. Promptly at 10:30 o'clock, the hour set for the start, all of the entries- were lined 'up on a float moored under the new Hawthorne-avenue bridge, and after posing for a photograph for The Ore gonlan, the swimmers lined at the edge of the barge placed in position by E. E. Kellogg, and at the signal from the gun of the starter, T. Morris Dunne, all leaped into the waters of the Willamette amid an outburst of applause from the big crowd of spectators assembled on the new bridge and nearby docks. Young Thomas, the winner, and Dave Welch, who finished second, got rather bad starts, for both boys were crowded out of positions before diving in and were delayed about two or three seconds before hitting the water. However, both lads started off with strong strokes, using the "crawl" taught them by Cavill, to great advantage, and soon .overhauled the leaders and struck out lit front in the most approved man ner. Thomas proved stronger than Welch and gained a lead which bta strong and' determined opponent could not over come, and the winner passed the finish point about three yards ahead of Welch. H. Warn, the Vancouver, B. C, swimmer, finished third, about three yards behind Welch. McDonald and Allen Tie. P. McDonald, of the Y. M. C. A., and Arthur A. Allen, of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic and the Portland Rowing Club, who rowed to Kellogg's boathouse to participate In the swim, and after It was concluded, rowed back to the rowing club, finished a tie for fourth honors. These two swim men came across the finish line so evenly that the Judges called it a dead heat, and both will receive credit for fourth place. Mumford, unattached was fifth, and Hector Seymour took sixth honors. The other swimmers who won prizes in yesterday's swim, which constitute those who finished from sixth to 20th in the order named are as follows: Boyle, M. A. A. C; Worsham, M. A. A- C; Banham, unattached; Mackenzie, M. A. A. C; Max Uhrdahl, M. A. A. C; Vincent, M. A. A. C; Joe Hare, M. A. A. C; Harry Strowbridge. United States Customs Service: Ed O.

Thomas, through his victory yester day, secures the Britten cup for one year, and permanent possession of the Frank E. Watklns cup. Dave Welch Is the winner of the John A. Heusner cup, and H. Warn was presented with the silver-mounted mil itary balr brushes given Dy Clayton Fallas. These prizes, together with the enameled gold stars and the gold and silver medals, cull links and scarf pin, were tendered the swimmers on the stage of the Orpheum Theater by A. W. Lafferty, Representative-elect In Congress from the Second Oregon Dis trlrt, at the conclusion of the show last night. Walter A. Holt, president of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club, in commenting on tne swim yesterday, said: 'I had not the pleasure of seeing the first swim last year, but I want to WINNER. - ' T , P. R. C.

Mr. Watkins and Mr. Cavill deserve credit for this success." Others Praise Aquatic Event. George W. Simons, one of the trus tees of the Multnomah Club, and one of the most enthusiastic members of the organization, said: "This idea is one that should appeal to every public spirited citizen of Portland. I do not know of anything that will give us more prestige than the perpetuating of the annual Christmas swim idea. I think it is great, and the proposition will always have my hearty support." Edgar B. Frank, trustee of the Mult nomah Club, said. " 'Turns' Cavill de serves great credit for this idea, for the swim today demonstrates the mild ness of our climate and is one of tbe greatest boosts Oregon could have. It was c great idea, not only for the Mult nomah Club, but for the community as a whole." T. Morris Dunne, secretary of the Pacific Northwest Amateur Athletic Association,- and one of the most en thusiastic members of the . Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club, said: "It was a grand success. Those active In pro moting swimming, are doing the com munity a good that is. Incomparable." Frank E. Watkins. director of swim ming at the Multnomah Club and a member of the Portland City Council, said: "Swimming should be advanced by every possible means, and I think Portland ought to take the matter up and promote It more generally by the establishment of more public swim ming baths along the banks of the Wil lamette River. As for the Christmas swim, all credit for this event belongs to Arthur Cavill, who originated the idea apd had the nerve to propose and pull off the first event when most peo ple were skeptical of the feasibility of the idea." Withycombe Is Disappointed. Previous to the swim Ralph Withy combe, who finished third in last year's swim, dived off the lift span of the new Hawthorne bridge, but the posi tion from which he took the dive was rather awkward and he alighted on his shoulders. The impact with the water, while it did not injure the diver, tore his bathing suit completely off his per son, and he was prevented from par ticipating in the regular swim because he had not time to secure a new outfit. Withycombe was greatly disappointed after being picked up by one of the launches in attendance, and announced that he was going after next year's swim more determined than ever. Those who started in yesterday's swim are: H. Schaefer, A. Getty, Dave Welch, H. Warn, Gus Mankurtz. E. C. Vincent, J. McDonald, E. O. Gloss, D. Worsham. P. ' McDonald, J. Gross, M. W.
