Field Being Prepared.
Chicago's own champions, hot on tha
trail of the Interschol&stlc football charn
plonshlp of the United States, are In fine
fettle for a hard battle tomorrow, despite
the rough knocks received in the gams
Ith Wenatchee High at Seattle last
Monday. The Oak Park High School
team arrived yesterday end Is at the Ho
tel Oregon.
Just what formations will be used
against the Washington High School
have not been selected by Coach Zuppka
aa yet. but tha Oak Park coach ia put
ting forth his best efforts to key up
some of his latest puzzlers In the way of
Eastern football, in hones of being able
to show a few surprises. An easy vie
tory is not looked for by the Oak Park
boys; who believe that the local team will
be somewhat faster than the Wenatches
team, and with this end hi view all he
boys aro cotermlned to fight the battle
of their young lives In order to go back
to the W lndy City with a clean slate.
"W'hoa-Back" Pass Xot Solved.
Wenatchea gave the boys a hard run,
but superior football and ths "whoa
back" forward pass proved the undoing
of the apple-pickers, who seemed unable
to stop the long toss that has created so
much comment In Eastern football cir
cles, inssmuch as It Is Impossible to tell
Just where the oval Is liable to land,
there being several points where the final
pass can be directed. It was this play
that gave the orange and blue gladiators
the championship of the Middle West
and a defense to atop It has aa yet not
been perfected..
The constant change of weather has
anected the Oak Parkers to some ex
tent, but outside of husky voloea snd
colds, the boys have withstood the trip
of 4O0O miles In grand shape. The arter
noon practice on Recreation 'Park was
filled with vim and Coach Zuppke worked
the boys to the limit In order to prepare
them for the second and final match of
tne long tour.
Visitors Like Portland.
Portland has made a great Impression
on the squad and were it not for the
fact that the lntercholastic league rules
of Chicago compel their being back in
school next Wednesday morning, tha
team would spend several additional days
before leaving for Chicago, but as it is
they will be compelled to leave shortly
after the game is played.
Gangs of workmen will begin work to
day at placing Recreation Park in the
best possible condition. It has been ar
ranged to unload ten wagonloads of saw.
dust upon the surface of the gridiron,
that the water may be absorbed as much
as possible. It has been suggested to
place a steam roller at work on the field
and pack it, that a firm footing for ths
fast plays may be had.
Coach Karl is also figuring on springing
some new plays, the team having been
practicing at them hard for the past sev
era! days With any kind of a dry field
there seems every likelihood that the
football treat of the year will be seen
when ths teams line up tomorrow after

possibly three of the contests will be
played at Eugene and one or more of
which will be played at Portland. Hay
ward passed through Portland yester
day on his way home from the confer
ence meeting at Spokane, which began
Tuesday and ended yesterday.
University of Washington will be
mat next year, for the first time since
1909. The game will be played at
either Eugene or Portland. There will
be' no game with the Oregon Agri
cultural College, according to the pres
ent outlook, relations with that institu
tion having been severed as a result
of the annual game at Corvallis last
November.
The first game of the "schedule will
be played on October 28, against Wash
ington State College, Pullman being the
scene of the game. The annual game
with Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club
will be played in Portland on Thanks
giving day, November 30.
Although five games constitute a
somewhat heavy schedule for the var
sity, it is not regarded by Trainer Hay
ward as too big an undertaking for
his men. With Coach Glenn Warner
back again next year and most of his
men on hand, prospects look rosy to the
students at Eugene for next year.
According to Hayward, the confer
ence sanctioned a conference track
meet to be held in Portland the first
week in June, providing arrangements
could be made. In all probability the
meet will be held the Saturday of the
Rose Festival, as was the case two
years ago, proving one of the enter
taining features of the festival.
