Fearful Beatlnr In Exrry

I -OS AXGELES. CaL. Jan. 1. Jo.
Rivera, of San PIvko. knocked out
Frank I. Cooler, of Kenosha. Vla to
tT in tha eleventh round of thalr
scheduled jo-round fight at Vernon.
At no tlma did Confer have tha least
chanca to win, and only onre. In tha
flrat round, whan ha put a attff left to
Rivers Jaw. aa tha latter waa backing
away, and ant him to tha floor, did
he lnd a blow that seriously Inter
fered wltn Rivera.
Rivera ahawlas Marvel.
It waa ona of the fastest fights be
tween featherweights ever seen In tha
Vernon ring. Kivers' showing waa
marvelous. Time and again he would
atralirhten Cooler up wtrh a left Jab
and then land a vlcloue right to tha
far. In the third round Rivera ruehed
'onley to the ropea and landed blow
after blow on hia Jaw with sledge
hammer force, but he could not atop
the Wisconsin lad from boring In for
more.
Again In tha eeventh Rivera had
Conley all but out. but could not land
on a vital spot. Conley'e face, waa a
fearful sight by thla time. Hla eyea
were nearly awollen shut and ha waa
bleeding from a half dozen cut, while
Rivera bore but ona mark, a alight cut
on hla nose.
Tine OeJy Qaeatie.
It waa Been aa early aa tha third
round that Conley had no chanca and
It was almply a matter of how long he
could endure the terrible punishment
Rivera waa Inflicting. Conley con
stantly carried the fight to hla op
ponent only to receive tha worst beat
ing af hla ring career.
In the eleventh, after fiddling for a
few momenta In the center of the ring.
Rivers rushed and threw Conley's head
bark with a terrific right to tha Jaw.
Rivers never let his man get away,
but with relentless precision landed
. left and right to body and face, until
tiley fell limp over the ropes, head
down, and suffered his first clean
knockout.

OAKLAND. Cal.. Jan. I. Ed Petros
key was given the decision over "Chi

ernoon, after the scheduled ten rounds
of fast fighting. l-etroskey had the
better of tha argument throughout the
contest and tha decision proved popular
with the crowd.
Neither man displayed much science,
hut they were eager and tha fight was
full of action. I'etroskey's lack of ex
perience waa shown on two or three
occasions when he had Brown In a bad
way, but did not follow up his ad
vantage. The result of the fight Is
considered a decided gain In the rep
utation of tha local fighter.

It was the concluding match of tha
annual aeries, and the Canadlana reg
istered their third consecutive victory.
The locals played up to form and
had a marked advantage In all de
partmenta. In the forward line they
had the visiting collegians beaten In
the scrums and In tha line-outs, while
their combination In the back division
was better. All three matches mere
played on a heavy field and the cold
weather may have affected the form

ami thoso who did warm seats In the
stand seemed disinclined to add volume
to tha wild rootlnsT usually manifested
In so close and Important a struggle.
Multnomah, admittedly afraid, really
rooted little for fear tha tables would
be turned upon them by the wonderful
Borleske. or by Eaklns or by Coyla or
some other mateotio denizen of totem
polevll'.e. while the Seattle cohorta were
too stunned for vocal demonstration.
Doble'a Fake Play acesoda.
Tha greatest excitement that waa oc
casioned cams la tna aecond half, when
Seattle pulled tha "Dobla hidden-ball"
trick, known In Seattle as tha "bunk"
play, and shoved Brlnker around right
end for 35 yarda. Borleske went around
left end for another first down on the
next play and It began to look like a
reversal of form. Multnomah, however,
rallied, and continued to play Ita best
defensive affair of the season.
Dud Clarke used the opener on the
"demonstration" bottle later on. In
the fourth quarter, when he sailed
around right end for 25 yards, placing
the soherold on Seattle'a 17-yard line.
Clarke attempted his fourth placement
at this point, but the ball took a course
much on the order of Wellman's diri
gible In Its trans-Atlantic voyaging.
Seattle Makes Crasi Rally.
Everett May a moment later recov
ered the ball for the Winged M when
Seattle fumbled on tha seven-yard line
and here occurred the grand rally of
the afternoon. Seattle holding safe two
yarda from the goal on the third down,
immediately punting out of danger.
The gamo all through waa exceed
ingly rough, with ona or two red-Ink
excerpts from mediaeval hletory
thrown In for good measure. Tha sec
ond quarter especially waa featured by
outbursts of roughness, but toward the
close both squada were too tagged for
feudalism. The rival teama Indulged
In much punting during thla quarter,
tha honors being about evenly divided
between Eaklns and Clarke, with an
average hardly over SI yard.
Ussrter 'ot AwkeJ Gtveau
Up to this stage It waa straight foot
ball, with none of the frills of tha new
game, but plenty of hard, sura tackling
Sometimes It waa ona nan that did
It. but generally there were two and
three and four pairs of tentacles
around the unfortunate runner with
the ball. But it was club football
men were playing; no quarter waa
asked and no quarter given. In the
aecond half both captains opened up a
little 11 football, Multnomah nego
tiating two or three beautiful passes,
Rlnehart to Ludlum and Rlnehart to
Clarke.
Borleske, the great Whitman grad
uate who was the lightning streak In
tha Christmas contest, loomed up over
his brother clubmen,' but Multnomah
had been drilled to look for him and
ha got no chanca to show hla open
field brilliancy. Borleske, Eaklns,
Coyle. Murklestona and Brlnker prob
ably got In the best licks for the vis
itors, although Mucklestone and Coyle
both seemed utterly out of place In
the loose-Jointed style of play. Place,
Boyle, McCree and the others were
working all the time, but had no
chance to star.
Clarke's Kleklnat Excels.
For Multnomah Clarke waa the Ad
miral Crlchton of the leap year after
noon. On defense Calllcrate and Ro
gers pounced on everything like sacks
of ballast dropped from the moon.
Clarke waa not successful with his
boot offerings, principally because the
two kicks that went straight were
tried from too great a distance. One
from the -yard line sailed true as a
rifle shot, but fell two yarda short.
At center Cherry waa aa Insurmount
able as tha Himalayas and as docile
and votoelesa aa tha Niagara cataract
at flood time. Keck, O'Rourke, May,
Gerry and Rlnehart all performed val
iantly, although Keek's inexperience
with tha Winged M formations waa
graphically Illustrated several times.

Testerday'a victory closed a remark

ALB ANT. Or.. Jan. 1. (Special.)
Albany witnessed Its first New Year's
day football game In many years this
afternoon when the Albany high
school team defeated a picked team of
former football stars residing In thla
city by a score of 10 to 5.
Use of the forward pass brought
tha high school victory. Both of its
touchdowns were made on forward
passes, and Left End Beeson made
them both. Tha former gridiron glad
iators, trained In the old style play,
relied entirely on straight football.
The victors scored first in the first
period. After two big gains by Bee
son on forward passes bad aided ma
terially In getting the ball Into the
all-stars' territory, he caught another
for a 15-yard run for a touchdown.
There was no more scoring In the
first half, but at the start of the sec
ond the veterans had perfected enough
team work to make consistent gains,
and after they had -threatened the
high school goal several times Bain
smashed through for a touchdown.
With the tide of the game appar
ently turning against them, the high
school lads resorted entirely to kick
ing and attempts at forward passes,
and on the first play of the fourth
auarter Beeson caught a forward pass.

COLD ENGINE DRAWBACK
Throngs Crowd Bridges to Witness
Annual Race Humming Bird
of Astoria Also Victor Great
er Speed Xow Aimed.
BY W. J. PETRAIN'.
All that prevented John E. Wolff and
Orth Mathlot from scoring a world's
speed record for motorboats with the
Oregon Wolf in the annual New Year's
motorboat races yesterday was the fact
that they entered the free-for-all event
without having warmed up their craft
before starting.
As it was, the Oregon Wolf, with John
E. Wolff, pioneer Portland motorboat
enthusiast. In charge of the engines,
and Orth Mathlot at the helm, shot
around the ten-mile course of two laps
In 15 minutes 17 1-5 seconds, or an
average of 40 miles and a fraction an
hour. The Oregon Wolf proceeded di
rectly from the Portland Motorboat
Club house at the foot of Ellsworth
street to the starting point without any
more preliminary warming up than
was required to propel her to the scene
of the race. Had the craft been
warmed up by racing up the river for
a few miles preparatory to starting,
she would have made much better time.
as was evidenced by her performance
In making the second lap of her race
at the rate of 41 2-10 miles an hour.
The world"s record, held by the Dixie
IV, Is 41.4 miles an hour."
Thronge See Contest.
Large crowds on the Morrison, Haw
thorne and Burnside bridges saw the
motor craft In the speed trials and the
Oregon Wolf was cheer ;d enthusiastic
ally all along the course. The same
enthusiasm prevailed In the race for 28
footers. which preceded the free-for-all
and which was won by the Astoria en
try. Humming Bird, owned by James
Duncan, of the City by the Sea-
The first race probably was more ex-
cltlnfr than the free-for-all, as tha
Oregon Wolf was far superior to the
other entries In ita class, while the 26
footers put up a fine competition be
tween at least three of the six en
tries. T"o Humming Bird, of Astoria,
manned by Arthur Cannessa at the en
gines and E. W. Muddeman as pilot,
got off to a good start and the benefits
of warming up beforehand were shown
In this race. The Humming Bird cov
ered the ten miles In 22 minutes and
67 seconds and Immediately got ready
to participate in the free-for-all
against the Oregon Wolf.
Spear's Engine Stalled.
The Spear gave the Astoria entry
the hardest fight for the honors among
the 26-footers. The Spear, manned by
Kay Neuberger as engineer and Ray
Jemleson as pilot, finished the course
24 minutes and 64 seconds, alter
having had a stalled engine for almost
one minute of the time consumed In
the race. This stalling of the engine
necessarily Involved a lapse of time la
getting under way again, so the Spear's
performance Is highly creditable, but
does not detract from the showing of
the Astoria boat. Members of the
Portland Motor-Boat Club, under whose
auspices the races were held, heartily
congratulated the Astoria entry over
Its victory.
The speed boat Me Too IT. owned and
manned by U S. and P. G. Harlow, also
made a splendid showing In the first
race, but waa unfortunate, like the
Spear, In having a stalled engine soon
after the start of the race, which' lost
this craft considerable time. The Me
Too II took third place in a gallant
finish against the Alert- The motor
boats Question Mark and Potato Bug
behaved badly and failed to show to
advantage.
Besides the Oregon Wolf, two other
boats entered the free-for-all, but one
of these, the Astoria entry Humming
Bird, failed to start because of engine
troubles, probably due to failure to
keep the craft warmed up after the
first race. As It was the Oregon Wolf
and the Question Mark started In this
event.
Oregon Wolf Supreme.
The Oregon Wolf waa far too speedy
for the Question Mark, which had had
difficulty In the first race, and the
Oregon Wolf won handily in 15:17 1-5.
The Oregon Wolf made the first lap
In 8 minutes flat, and the second lap,
of the same distance, in 7:17 1-5. The
Question Mark's time was 20:50 for
the ten miles.
