WHITMAN MAN PRESIDENT
George T. IT nr. Oregon Delegate,
Re-choeen Secret! j Hijrifd
Will Introduce Rugby Football
Game at Oregon, IT.
SPOKA3CE. IVasK, D"-- 17. (Special.)
After there bad appeared to be excellent
prospects of a Summer baseball clause
creeping Into the eonstltytlon and by
laws governing the Pacific Northwest In
tercolleaiate Conference, which would
make It possible for college ballpUyera
to earn a few dollars in the Summer va
cation at their favorite pastime, the
fourth annual meeting of the, governing
bod In Spokane today swung completely
t the ODDOsite extreme.
ft Is now rosltlieiy prohibited to play
toenail on any team, with or without
salary, during the vacation period.
Vincent Borleeke. the great football
star of Whitman College, was the father
of this resolution and It carried Unani
mously.
Big Surprise Sprang.
Bach drastic action came f a great
surprise to even the men who voted for
It. but the determination of Bonesae ana
Ms mmmliiM carried the day. "We
might as well have a el an -cut rule on
the matter, raid florleske.
The much-mooted 'unnnlmity' rule op
position did not materialise. Tbe del-
catea were entirely harmonious. It had
been reported that the University of
Idaho would withdraw from the confer
ence unless a majority rule" clans was
Inserted bat Idaho voted with the rest
of the college for unanimity.
B. H. Brown, of the Whitman College
faculty, waa elected president of the con
ference for 1911. to succeed Dean Mllnor
Roberta of tbe University of Washing
ton, whose term expired. Qeorsre n . Hug,
University of Oregon alumnus, principal
of the Eugene Or.) High School waa
re-aierted to the position of secretary.
Rugby Question Forgotten.
Tbe question of investigating Rugby
football as a possible substitute for tne
Intercolleaiate came dM not come up.
Trainer Bill" Ilayward. University of
Ore iron, says that ha Intenda to Intro
8 ace the game ax Oregon next year for
classes, as well as soccer and lacrosse.
A special concession waa made with
reference to the admission of freshmen
of the Oregon Agricultural College, in
stead of demandlug 12 Carnegie units as
he basis of freshmen csuslncation. tne
conference baa decided to accept the
classification of the O. A. C. faculty. Any
thing that Institution calls a freshman
Will be accepted by the conference.
The two-year agreement under which
the conference lias been operating ex
pi re December SI and It will be necessary
to ratiry It ror anotner term or years,
with the few minor chang-a that were
adopted today and the one sweeping
rhangs against playing any sort of Sum
mer baseball.
The Goldsmith baseball was adopted
aa t ha. official ball for conference college
times. It la the same In pattern. sfie
and weight as the official Spalding ball,
seed by the leagues.
The decision made several weeks ago
to play tne Intercollegiate basketball
game, with the exception of the out-of-
bounds clause, instead of which the A. A.
V. clause W substituted, was ratified.

NEW LEAGUE NOW PLAN
PORTLAND INTER SCHOLASTIC
REORGANIZATION ON WAY.
Next Week May Se Changes in As
sociation- Vancouver May Bo
Ousted to Admit HilL
Considering the advisability of re
organising the Portland Interscholastlc
Athletic Association, disbanded last
week. J. W. Kletser. Portland Academy:
J. C. Veatch. Washington High School,
and Robert J. Smith. Jefferson High
School, the appointed committee, met
yesterday at the Young Men s Chris
tian Association but took .no de Anita
action. Mr. Kletzer waa made chair
man of the committee.
From all appearances, the league will
be reorganised next week, after school
has convened from the holiday vaca
tion. The proposed personnel of the
league was discussed.
One thins; decided upon was that the
league would be reorganized as soon
as possible and that tha basketball
games, supposed to begin next week.
will begin about the middle or tne
month. The basketball and baseball
schedules, omitting Columbia, will be
revised and published as soon as pos
sible.
Will Vancouver High School b re,
talned In the league when It Is reorgan
Ized? Thla la a question which Is bold'
lng the attention of many athletic fol
lowers in Portland. Since Columbli
University has been eliminated from
the league many local athletic devotees
say that Vancouver haa absolutely no
right In the association.
If Columbia University and Hill Mill
tary Academy, both Portland Institu
tions, are not allowed In the league.
Vancouver, a city In a different state.
should not be counted among the teams
of a Portland - Interscholastlc league.
they say. It is argued that Vancouver
has not added any particular luster to
athletics, has not aided the league by
attendance at the games and further
more, la not an Oregon Institution.
It Is understood that a fight will be
made to eliminate Vancouver, now that
Columbia has been dropped. Several
prominent men In amateur athletics
yesterday expressed the opinion that
Vancouver should not be allowed In a
Portland secondary league. They said
If more teams were wanted and Colum
bia and Hill not wanted, why not St.
Johns or Oregon City or some other Ore
gon Institution?

OAK PARK ON WAY
Easterners Will Arrive in Port
land Late in Day.
WASHINGTON IS CONFIDENT
Local Football Lads Prepare for
Greatest and Probably Fastest
Game Ever Pulled Off Teams
Line Tp Saturday.
Despite the crashing defeat admin
istered to the Wenatchee High School
team at Seattle Monday afternoon by
the Oak Park High School team of
Chicago. Washington High School here
Is confident of winning when they meet
Saturday afternoon at Recreation Park.
According to the Seattle reporta Oak
Park "unfolded play after play that
had never before been seen on a West
ern gridiron." If such Is the case Sat
urday, then Portland football fans will
be given a rare treat. The local high
school champion team Is also prepared
to unfold plays -that have never been
seen before in Portland.
To Judge their chances by the amount
of "pepper" shown In practice and by
their precision In reeling off Intricate
trick and forward pass plays, Wash
ington High School will make the Chi
cagoans "hurry some" to win. ,
Oak Park's reputation as performers
with the forward pass has preceded It
from the East. That the reputation
seems Just enough was shown by the
rapidity and neatness In which they
scored on Wenatchee In the Seattle
game.
Attendance Will Bo Heavy.
At Seattle the gams was attended by
the largest crowd in the history of
"prep" games. At Portland the largest
football crowd of the year. It Is ex
pected, will flock to Recreation Park.
Judging from the advance sale of
tickets Portland will eclipse Seattle In
point of attendance.
Oak Park remains yet to be scored
on this year. On the other hand It has
run up a total of more than 300 polnta
on opposing teams. If reports are true
concerning Wenatchee's showing
against Chicago the exhibition waa not
a representative one of Western foot
ball tactics. Wenatchee's attempts with
the forward pass were bunglesome and
non-productive while Oak Park's were
cleverly executed. To see the Wash
ington boys" forward pass work In
practice. Is to believe that scores will
come from It.
While Coach Earl has drilled his men
hard at perfecting the offensive tactics
he has also taught them defensive
strategy that will no doubt meet any
emergency that the Chicago team may
require them to combat. In all prob
ability the local lads will polish off
their training- for the game by prac
ticing at Recreation Park.
Weather Won't Deter.
New sawdust will be spread upon the
most muddy and soft places on the
gridiron and the game will be played
regardless of weather conditions.
No game since the contest between
Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club and
St. Louis University three years ago
has attracted the state-wide attention
that this coming battle Is command
ing. When the St. Loulsans came West
higiily touted for their football In
genuity and speed, all likllhood of vic
tory seemed to sway In favor of the
Easterners. However, It was a differ
ent story told when the teams met.
Multnomah winning decisively.
Allies of tbe local teams are hopeful
of a similar result Saturday. Reserved
seats are selling rapidly at Meier &
Frank, the Northern Pacific Ticket
Office and Schiller's cigar stores. Pop
ular prices will prevail.
The Chicago team will leave Seattle
tonight for Portland, arriving here to
be quartered at the Hotel Oregon, at
( o'clock Thursday morning. The
Eastern athletes will be met at tha
depot by numerous former Cblcagoans.
The boys will remain in the city until
Sunday night, returning to Chicago by
January 4, in time for the ending of
the holiday school vacation.
