LOS ANGELES, Oct. 24. (Special.)
In the third game of the series the
Tigers again won, 7 to 2. They salted
away the game in the first inning,
when they knocked Higglnbotham out
of the box with six hits and six runs..
This was too much for McCredie and
he derricked Higglnbotham and sent
Dave Gregg in to pitch. Fisher caught.
Portland's only runs came in the filth
and seventh Innings. Baker, the first
man up was safe at first on Hosp's
high throw of his grounder. Bancroft
walked and Fisher singled to right,
filling the bases. Baker was caught at
the plate and Chadbourne flied to
Bayless, Bancroft scoring.
In the seventh Bancroft was safe at
second, when Hosp threw his grounder
wide to McDonnell, and he advanced
on Fisher's out. He scored on Gregg's
bunt.
Vernon started off with a rush in
the first inning. Carlisle singled to
left and took second on Krueger's er
ror. Burrell sacrificed. Bayless sin
gled Infield, scoring Carlisle. - Brash
ear doubled to right, putting Bayless
on third; Hosp singled to left, scoring
Bayless and Brashear. Hosp was safe
at second on Rodgers' error. Litschi
walked, McDonnell singled to left,
scoring Hosp and putting Litschi on
second. Litschi and McDonnell ad
vanced a base on a passed ball. Brown
singled to left, scoring Litschi and Mc
Donnell. McCredie derricked Higgin
botbam and sent Gregg to relieve him.
Baum fanned. Carlisle did the same.
Six hits counted for six runs.
The Tigers came to life again In the
third, when Gregg allowed. Litschi to
walk. McDonnell sacrificed and Baum
singled to center, scoring Litschi.
Although Vernon made six runs in
the first inning, the rest of the game
was exciting, as both teams had
chances to score more than they did,
only to let them slip through their
fingers.
McCredie said today after the game:
"Vernon is going to win that pen
nant. You can say that for me. There
Is no fight In Oakland. That club blew
two weeks ago and I expected to see
Los Angeles beat them to death, I
want to beat Vernon and beat them
bad. but baseball luck is against us,
and. take it from me, Vernon is
playing 50 per cent better ball than
any other club in the league today. The
boys have hit a spurt." Score:

Sam Moyer, coach of the Spokane
North Central High football team,
which plays Lincoln High tomorrow on
Mul'tnomah Field, has a great record of
winning teams. In 1910 Moyer produced
the Aberdeen High School foothall
team, which cleaned up the State of
Washington and Lincoln High School of
Portland on the side. Last year Moyer
coached the team of the combined North
Central High and Lewis and Clark High
students under the name of the bpo
kane High School. The team was one
of the strongest contenders for the
Washington championship, losing but
one game, that tt Wenatchee.
The team which he has built this
year has already established an en
viable record. It has defeated Jeffer
son High of Portland 27 to S and beat ,
one of the Washington teams by a score
of over 100 to 0.
Owing to a request from . Coach
Moyer, the usual Interscholastic Foot
ball League officials have been
switched about. Roscoe Fawcett will
referee, but R. M. Hockinberry will act
as umpire, while Martin Pratt has been
placed on the job as head linesman.
The lineup which Lincoln will place
opposite the opponents reads: Risley,
center; Johns, right guard; Fink, left
guard; Dudley, right tackle; Busch, left

Johan has been Joked good-naturedly
about his love of battle since bis sec

declared In answer that fighting did not
appeal to him, but when he learned of
Mr. McCarey's Interest he voiced a dif

DOBIE'S TEAM RESPECTED
Idaho Not Counted as Contender
Against Washington. Despite
Sweeping Victory Over Bend
er's Men Last Week.
' - BY ROSCOE FAWCETT.
Two football games of importance
are scheduled in the Pacific Northwest
tomorrow, together with a number of
minor clashes. The. University of Ore
gon plays Washington State College at
Eugene and the University of Idaho
plays the University of Washington at
Seattle in the headUners. The Oregon
Aggies and Whitman College are idle
for the day. Willamette tackles Pa
cific University at Forest Grove, but
Willamette's edge is so great as to
blanket interest. -.
The two big games are important
because of their effect on the cham
pionship situation and the line they
furnish on the strength of the four
teams. Last October 27 at Pullman,
Captain Bill Main pulled out a victory
for the University of Oregon over
Washington State by a 75-yard dash
for the lone touchdown. Washington
State in turn walloped Idaho 17 to 0,
whereas a few days ago Idaho, with
practically the same team, defeated the
Pullmanltes 13 to 0.
Oregon Should Win.
. A perusal of the "dope" would seem
to show that the Washington Staters
are not within three or four touch
, f iha 1911 strength, when
Osthoff should have had a champion
ship squad. Coach Bender s average
weight this Fall has slumped irum io
... v.irt... i7n nminHs. and as he has
only three or four old men back in
harness, Oregon snouia nave uuu
ki. in annivlncr heroic methods by
..nr. nf it least 13 to 0 one touch-
down better than last year.
That estimate is giving tne rvuau
ington Staters about two touchdowns'
margin for improvement since tne
Idaho game. Once before Washington
State, under this same little Bender,
lost the first game of the year and
then improved rapidly and won every
other game of the Fall, including a vic
tory over the University of Washing
ton. Still if Oregon fails ' to win by a
couple of touchdowns you can jot it
down on your little memorandum tab
that Coach Pinkham's squad is not even
up to the form of the 1911 Warnerltes.
Seattle Expected to Win.
At Seattle the University of Wash
ington - will undoubtedly win, but
h.i-a' nttio ilntiirer that the margin
will be much more than in 1911. when
Spokane fans saw the uem Btaters Dat
tle manfully to a 17-to-0 score. Dobie
I. nn .Via tn 1 f t his men Wi II
this early season game by a big tally.
Last year he installed numerous bud
stitutes when it became evident that
Idaho had no chance for victory.
Whitman College has the team which
all the coaches are worrying about this
Fall. The Missionaries have always
nnirht H.nn.rlltflv to the last ditch.
despite the lack of heavy experienced
men, but this mi (joacn- Arcnie nann
has the men and it looks as if Wash-

the Walla Walla squad was ignored
after their dispute of. two years ago.
Whitman's average weignt is in
nouns' a a thA team is the most even

tackles, Neill (194) and Clemen (180),
are big, herculean fellows, and big
tackles are essential. ine average

field Hahn has the wonderful Niles and

and one or two others of equal merit.
If the Missionaries continue tneir aw-u

games with Idaho, November 11 Wash-Ine-tn
Rloto 'nvcmhpr 18. and the
Oregon Aggies,. November 30, they
stand a good snow or Deing awaraeo
the newspaper championship on a com
parative score basis. Idaho won last
year, 5-0, Washington State 1-0 and
the Corvallis eleven, 6-3.'
Tigers to Play Dartmouth.
Several semi-final games are. on tap
in the East and Middle West the com
ing Saturday, the most important of
which is the Princeton-Dartmouth af
fair at Princeton. Last Fail the Tigers
won 3-0. Princeton's overwhelming
62-0 defeat of Syracuse last Saturday
is prima facie evidence that Princeton
has a wonderful bunch again, for Car
lisle beat Syracuse only 30 to 0 the
week before and Yale 21 to 0.
Other games in along the Atlantic
seaboard for tomorrow are: Yale vs.
Washington and Jefferson, at New
Haven; Harvard vs. Brown, at Cam
bridge; Carlisle vs. Georgetown, at
Washington; West Point vs. Colgate,
at West Point, and Syracuse vs. Michi
gan, at Syracuse. Harvard won from
Brown in 1911, 20 to 6; Carlisle beat
Georgetown 28 to 6 and the soldiers
won from Colgate, 12 to 6.
Middle Western games of note are:
Chicago vs. Purdue, at Chicago; Min
nesota vs. Iowa, at Minneapolis; Indi
ana vs. Northwestern, at Indianapolis,
and Wabash vs. Notre Dame.
Wisconsin Western Favorite.
Iowa, Purdue, Northwestern and In
diana have all been eliminated from
the championship race in the Middle
Western conference. Wisconsin ap
pears to be the favorite, with Minne
sota, Chicago and Illinois contenders.
The Gophers partially made up for
their South Dakota loss by defeating
Nebraska, but the Minneapolis squad
does not look like the aggressive squad
of past seasons. Wisconsin's 42-0 win
over Indiana has been the feature thus
faiv -
In Southern California the Occidental
College "Tigers will battle tomorrow In
an inter-sectional clash with the Unl-.
versity of Denver, at Los Angeles. Oc
cidental is the college which the Ore
gon Aggies go south on Thanksgiving
day to play. The splitting up of foot
ball into Rugby and intercollegiate
factions in California seems to have
stimulated and broadened the scope of
activity.- Occidental and Pomona meet
some of -the best teams In the West,
while the University of Southern Cali
fornlan locks horns with both Stanford
and California at the English game.
AVGLERS CLUB SEEKS MEN
Plan Under Way to Increase Mem-
. bership From 350 to 100O.
A stirring membership campaign,
calculating to boost the Multnomah
Anglers Club from 350 to 1000 work
ing members by January, will be In
augurated tonight at the regular
monthly meeting of the organization.
A roll of 1000 would make the organi
zation the largest in the Northwest, If
not the banner one of the Pacific
Coast. .
In addition to the launching of the
PULLMAN

membership campaign, which will be
"spiced" by offering S15, 210 and 16
prizes In fishing; tackle to the three
bringing in the ' largest number , of
members, several important reports
will be made. The executive board will
bring up the matter of salmon trout
legislation, Game Warden Finley will
make a report on fish nlanted during
the season, and W. F. Backus will tell
of the condition of the mouth of the
Sandy River and the work accom
plished there.
With the exception of proposed leg
islative lobbying leading to the pro
tection of trout during the closed sea
son by limiting salmon trout catches
to 12 inches and over, the work of the
club is practically over for the season.
The organization has been instrumen
tal In placing fish in many lakes and
streams, assisting the game warden's
office and bringing many lawbreakers
to justice.
SPOKAXE SEEX IX GOOD SHAPE

ATTELL FIGHT 1C-ROCND DRAW
f t
Ex-Champion Leads Against Walsh
Only in Early Part of Fight.
BOSTON, Oct. 24. Abe Attell, of San
Francisco, former featherweight champion,-
and Jimmle Walsh,, of Boston,
fought 12 two-minute rounds to a draw
tonight. Walsh insisted on the time
of the rounds being shortened when
Attell refused to get on the scales, the
articles calling for both men to make
weight.
Attell took a lead in the early part
of the contest by his infighting, fre
quently getting Walsh In a corner and
beating a rapid tattoo on his stomach.
After the seventh round Walsh kept
the Californian at a distance with stiff
left punches to the Jaw.
WASHINGTON COACH THREAT
ENS TO "FIRE" CAPTAIN.
Backfield Is New Material While
Old Men In Line Are Lazy De
feat by Idaho Looms.
UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON,
Oct. 24. (Special.) Coach Dobie has
given Captain Tom Griffiths 24 nours
to eet over being a sorehead and get
to work, or he threatens to kick him
off the squad. Last night in scrim
mage Dobie continually called Griffiths
to account for his work and accused
every old man on the squad of loafing.
He relegated Van Presley, the center
of the eleven for the last three years,
to the second squad and replaced him
with Burke Griffiths.
"The men are loafing," said Dobie,
"and if they keep that up Idaho will
take their number sure. The line
ouarht to be good and will be If the
men will work, but with a green back
field and a lazy line, we have no
chance."
The Washington backs have not
picked up the game as fast as the
yeteran coach expected. Jacquot, Dor
man and Shiel have worked together
resrularly and were looked on as the
probable first team trio but unless they
tret in and work in the next few days
Dobie promises to cashier them. Dobie
is desperate. He has had good ma
terial to work with ever since he came
to Washington until this year and the
thousrtvt of actually being aiefeateid
hurts his professional pride. Last week
he worked on Hunt, a new man at end,
and showed him how his position ought
to be played and is -now using him in
the regular first team line-up.
Sutton, who is slated to fill the
other end position, has a chronic
sprained ankle and If he plays he will
not be in condition because he is un
able to train. Both Sutton and Hunt
axe fast in getting down on punts, but
they have not been holding the for
ward passes in scrimmage and it is
in. this department that Washington
will have to win Its games, for the
backfield doesn't make anything
through the line when in the shadow
of their opponents goal posts.
The "quarterback situation is worry
Ins: Dobie. and he has not been able
to solve it. Tom Wand has been
groomed for the position for three
years, but he will be unable to play for
some time on account of a torn finger,
nail. This leaves Smith and Young
to pick from and neither of them can
run the team to Doble's satisfaction.
Young is a fair punter and Smith works
the eleven faster than either Young
or Wand, but they are lacking In field
generalship. Young Is a good drop
kicker and if the backs fail to make
gajns in their opponents' territory,
as Dobie predicts, Washington will
have to depend on him for points.
The strength of Idaho Is well known.
The backfield of the Moscow eleven is
fast and strong, and are old men at
the game. They made gains at will
against Pullman and that was more'
than Washington could do last year
with its championship b"ackfleld. Wash
ington will be outclassed in punting,
In jreneralship, and in llnebucking next
Saturday and the campus football fans
are looking forward to a hard-fought
contest if not defeat.
