Multnomah' football aspirations re
tired a rude Jolt yesterday In the an
nouncement that Ralph Dlmlck. riant
tackle and former Notre Iame atar,
who received favorable notice at the
hands pf Walter Tamp, would be un
able to compete with the clubmen for
several weeks at least on account of
Injuries received In an alumni game at
Forest Grove on 8aturday.
"Dlmlck received a terrific blow In
the stomach and It Is feared that sev
eral ribs were fractured." said Bill
Pchmltt. a teammate, both at Noire
J"ame and at the Multnomah Club.
"Dlmlck. who Is now coaching at Co
lumbia Preparatory School, was re
moved to St. Vlncenfs Hospital yes
terday, but will probably resume his
duties at Columbia in a day or two."
Dtmlck's loss will be a severe blow
to the winded "M" supporters, as the
club lost both tackles from last yesr's
squad and had been relying on Plm
lck to brace one side of the line. The
loss will be all the more keenly felt
owing to the proximity of the Wil
lamette University contest, scheduled
for next Saturday on Multnomah
Field. Last Fall Pr. Sweetland's
rhara-es slipped -a 29 to 0 surprise
package on the locals and Rlnehart's
men are tiroux for revenue.

they made the most of It. and the
series tightens up again.
In looking over these star athletes
one ia struck by tha fact that tbey are
all surprisingly young men. Harry
Davis, of the Athletics. Is the oldest
player of either team. He Is. Indeed,
a veteran, it seems, a veritable gray
beard, a granddad, having chalked up
a total of 3 years upon his life's score

It is believed by some earnest Phila

tha well-known coloniser of that lo
cality, arrived In the city, he discov

ting up files to Edward Bole one of
the leading cltlsens. Most players quit
the game in order to open billiard par
lors, but Mr. Bok Is the exception: he
edits the sporting page of the Ladles'
Home Journal. It Is said, however,
that he left a strong Impress upon the
sport, as may be witnessed by the
baseball phrase. "Soke, take your
base."
While there may be some doubt as
to the correctness of this, there is no
question that Harry Davis' crowd can
play ball, and we are looking forward
with eagerness for the Jousting which
the next few hours will bring forth at
the Polo Grounds.

RUGBY GAME POPULAR SOUTH
California Colleges and Schools Re
linquish Intercollegiate.
LOS ANGELES. Oct. .15. (Special.)
Is Rugby football a better game than
the American Intercollegiate T Had
thla question been asked five years ago
one would have had a long and hard
hunt to find many who would answer
In tho affirmative. Today, however,
thousands of enthusiastic university
students swoar by the British sport,
while Innumerable high school players
have become so in love with the game
that there would be as much opposi
tion to the reinstatement of Intercol
legiate as there waa to the Introduc
tion of Rugby.
In Northern California, encouraged
by two large universities, the high
schools have one by one dropped the
American game. The small colleges
and athletic clubs followed suit. Bel
mont even, to the surprise of many,
has this year dropped quietly into tha
ranks of the Rugby schools. Thla la
the school that for a long time had
been the strongest aupporter and lead
er In the American game. At the pres
ent time practically every institution
of learning north of the Tehachepl la
playing Rugby.
Southern California, being (farther
removed from the source of encourage
ment, has been less eager to drop the
American game, and following the ex
ample act by the colleges four or five
high schools still stubbornly cling to
the old game. Desertions from their
ranks, however. Is a yearly occurrence,
and even the most sanguine supporters
of the old style admit that It Is only
a matter of time until the whole of
California, and perhaps of tha Pacific
Coast will have changed. In another
year or two American football will be
a thing of the past In California.
This state of affairs need not be
looked upon in the light of a calam
ity, as some would have us believe.
California la really Isolated, In an ath
letic way. from most of the other
states. Relations are carried on, if
not with loss, at least with great risk.
If wo lose tha Interstate games we
hear mo much about, under the new
conditions wa could have International
contests. .
From the spectator's point of vlow,
Rugby seems to have more than held
Its own, from the way the crowds
throng the games In the North. This
Is somewhat of a doubtful compliment,
as Dr. Jordan, of Stanford University,
says Institutions of learning should go
a little deeper into the subject of
games than to ask merely what aort
of a spectacle they furnish for the out
side public.
Tet it Is almost entirely from this
standpoint that Rugby has been criti
cised, for most American players come
with such a deep-seated prejudice
against the game that they are unable
to soe any of its good points. To most
of thom the first Rugby game looks
like a big rough house. It lacks the
regularity of the American game as
regards the movement of the ball and
tho positions of the players. Not know
ing the object of any movement, they
are apt to call good Rugby football
loose or ragged playing.
The uncertainty of Rugby Is one of
Its charms. A score Is possible from
any part of the field. In fact, a score is
more often made from the 20 or 25-yard
line than from the 6. Then, too. the
weaker team in a good Kugby ma:oh
usually scores, as well as the victor.
Thla makes more scoring which adds to
the Interest of the gamev The Idea of
Rugby is not necessarily to prevent the
opponents scoring at all but to score
more than they do.

Complaints About Playing at "Hog
pen" Park Lead Baseball Mag
nates to Seek New Town.
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 16. (Special.)
In keen baseball circles It is believed
that the Vernon club in the Pacific
Coast League will bear another name
next season. The transfer -of Happy
Hogan's organization to a beach town
near Los Angeles will be considered at
the next league meeting as a result of
the compllants against playing at Ver
non made by players and manager
Walter McCredle, of Portland, In parti
cular. it is suggested that If Sunday morn
ing ball Is continued next season, It
would be found profitable at the beach.
No particular place for Hogan and his
men to hang their hats has been sug
gested but it is understood the base
ball magnates have a number In mind.
McCredle has been louder than ever
In his cry against playing on the
Vernon grounds which he calls the
"hogpen" and promises to wage a
fight before the directors against re
taining Vernon In the Iclrcult. Of
course, he Is not out to oust Hogan's
Tigers from the league, but he wants
them to move Into a new lair.
Also. McCredle Is bitter against Sun
day morning baseball, except In Oak
land, where the weather Is cool. He
says that many ballplayers would like
to attend church but the morning
games interfere. He says that If the
Sunday morning ball obtains next sea
son, he will be obliged to carry a
squad of 22 men, instead of 15 or 18,
and that the expense would not be
Justified.
"With seven months of baseball, the
Pacific Coast League fans get enough
at one game a day." said he.
