With the great state championship football struKKle between the tnlvers ltv of Oreeon and the Oregon Aggies f Aihsnv nnlv 4S hourn away the chances of Pinkhams eleven are be ing discussed pro and con by thousands f fn nil over the Northwest. The scores of the games played this Fall by the rival institutions will Just about tell the story or trie Detiing on mi nrHnv'n conflict. Oregon defeated Willamette Univers ity. 12-0; defeated the University of Idaho. 3-0: lost to Washington. 30-14; to Whitman. 20-0. and to Washington State. 7-0. The Oregon Aggies defeated Whitman. 20-3: lost to Washington. 9-3; to Washington State, 10-9, and to the Multnomah Cluo. -u. Tha Washington. Whitman and Washington State games are the only one which will serve as basis of com parlson and in all three instances the Aggies seem to have an apparent edge over the State University. This paper cnnerioritv la more marked in the Whitman game than In either of the other two. Whitman walloped Oregon unmercifully. J0-0, while the Aggies beat Whitman last Saturday. 20-3. Ore. gon's defeat, however, came early In the season before Pinkham woke up to some of his weaknesses. On the dope Coach Dolan's well trained huskies should defeat their heavier opponents by two touchdowns, at least, and the betting will likely be about 10 to 8 on the game, or even money on a two touchdownmargin. Lineup Little Changed. Both elevens will go Into the game about as they lined up last Saturday. Robertson will be padded out to hold down the Aggies' end, while Bailey and Bradshaw, of Oregon, injured against Washington, are expected to be In shape, although Jones is still being groomed for BradshaWs end. The only first-team man who will be missing will be McClelland. Oregon left guard, wbo was Injured at Seattle and has not been out for practice this week. However. Pinkham Is fairly well supplied with center trio material. At Oregon no chances of further in juries are being taken by the coaches, and all scrimmage work has been elim inated from the daily routine. Trainer Hayward is much concerned with the number on his maimed list, and he is perhaps the most pessimistic of all the staff in regard to Oregon's prospects. Dick Smith, advisory coach, is taking an active part in the preparations this week, and he Is devoting special atten tion to the line, with the hope of forti fying some of the vulnerable points. Fourteen games have been played be tween the University and the Agricul tural College.- Orcicoa Has Long- Lead. The Aggies have won two qf these contests, and have broken even on two more, while Oregon has captured the ten which remain. Strangely enough, the first gridiron meeting of the two colleges, which took place in 1804. re sulted In a victory, for the Aggies by the one-sided score of 16 to 0. The oniy time they have succeeded In turning the same trick, in the 18 years which have elapsed since that initial struggle, was In 1907. when the strong eleven coached by Norcross, of Michigan, nosed out a 4-to-0 victory on the strength of Carl Wolffs' goal-kicking abilities. During the long existence of this rivalry many games have been played which loom large in Northwest foot ball annals. Although the honors have almost Invariably gone to Oregon it was alwavs after a determined resist ance on the part of her ancient foe. This is shown by the close scores of the recent games, especially those of a few years ago. when the rivalry was keenest, and when such stars as Tsmpleton, Chandler, Moores, Moullen and Clarke fought on Oregon's side, and Pilkington. Root. Walker. Dolan and Wolff on that of the Farmers. Betting Lively In l!Hr. Oregon supporters who are alarmed at the apparent superiority of Dolan'." team this year, can gain some solace from the many victories won by the lemon-yellow In seasons past against even g-reater odds. Notable among these was that of 195. when O. A. C. was represented by what is considered by many critics the strongest eleven ever turned out by that institution. Tl;e lineup Included such players as Walker, Polar. Root. Williams, Abraham. Rine hart and Pilkington, and bets of three to one were laid on the Corvallis team Gordon Moores, now a member of Oregon's coaching staff, whoso flert ness of foot was the salvation of his team on numerous occasions, gathered in a fumble and distanced all his op ponents in a sprint to the goal line, scoring the only touchdown of the Kama. This was In the days when both Eugene and Corvallis were open towns, and the amount of money which the Corvallis sports dropped was estimated at $53,000. , . , Similar odds prevailed when Forbes raw eleven met the seasoned Aggies on Multnomah field in 1908. in the only game which has ever been played off the campus of one or the other of the schools. Betting was three to one on O A. C but Oregon's freshman line held firmly, while Mullen placed two field goals between the uprights, win ning the game for his team. Two Scoreless Games Played. The last two games were not so close, Oregon winning by the same score. 12 to 0. each time. The largest score ever hung u in an Oregon-O. A. C. contest was back in 1895, when Ore gon evened up for the defeat of the previous year with a 44-to-0 victory. The colleges have played two score less games. In 1902 and 1906. One of the closest battles Jn which they have engaged, however, was that in Cor vallis In 1904, which was won by Ore gon, 6 to 5. Joe Templeton, Oregon great gridiron hero, playing his fina season of football, kicked the winning goal from a different angle, and a plas ter cast of the foot which saved the day is still preserved among Oregon' trophies. It was in this game that Dow Walker loomed on the football horizon, when he picked up a fumble and ran 100 yards for the Farmers' touchdown. "AGGIE" REGULARS SURPRISED Corvallis Coaches Worry Because Freshmen Hold College Team. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL LEGE. Corvallis, Nov. 21. (Special.) The results of last night s scrimmage, when Coach Dolan pitted his regulars agaist the "rooky" team, were In tne nature of, an adverse surprise party for the college men and tne optimistic sup porters of the Beaver football pros pects. To Insure the college the ad vantage of a stiff scrap with an untried team, the crafty coach sent his machine against the snappy freshman bunch which has been running rough-shod over every other class team on the Cor vallis campus, and the gingery "rooks' kept the college from scoring. How to acount for last night's slump satisfactorily is the puzzle which is worrying the fuzzy chief, and he has sent for Dr. Earl Rinehart, of Portland, the former Corvallis and all-Northwest star, who will "remain on the Job until after Saturday's game. With the exception of Robertson, Coach Dolan is not sending out any vague statements as to what men he will use In the line-up at Albany. He has only enough men for one team and a short string of .subs for emergencies. The regulars who have played all of the games this season are the men who will fight Saturday s battle for tne Ag ricultural College. The only exception Is Robertson, and the most optimistic observers think his back will be healed In time to let him go into the game.

The Multnomah Club Winter ocean frolic, scheduled for December 7 and is attracting more attention than the successful affair of last season.

"Where You Get the" Best" TV TAGOMA DEAL IS Oil "Iron Man" McGinnity Holds Option on Franchise. DONLIN MAY BE MANAGER Xew Owners of Phillies Considering Vaudeville Artist's Abilities. Butcher Probably Slated to Leave Portland. Is Joe McGinnity, the once-famous 'Iron Man" of the New York Giants, prospeotive Northwestern League owner? Owner Watklns, of Tacoma, is back from Milwaukee with ' the story that McGinnity will be In Tacoma with in two weeks to look over the field and exercise his option on the franchise, yet reports from the East say that Joe s dickering with the Terre Haute own ers and may buy a controlling interest in the Central League club and manage the team in 1913. "McGinnitv will be in Tacoma within two weeks to look over the field and I am satisfied that he will buy the fran chise," says Watklns. "He had some business to attend to at iMewarK. out will be out here soon to exercise his option." Should the McGinnity deal, and others which Watklns claims are held in abey ance until the McGinnity option ex pires, fall through, George Capron, ex Northwestern League outfielder and famous football player, may get the Tacoma club. He telegraphed to Wat klns at 'Milwaukee, offering to trade land near Klamath Falls for the Ta coma baseball property. Watklns an swered that if the deals were not con- UNTVERSITY OF OREGON AND OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE STARS WHO ARE EXPECTED TO TWINKLE IN SAT URDAY GAME AT ALBANY. w Hi . r ft. l't-w-' I Ui' 2e, d7ais??s. JC&yScgQ Or&cpcm. 4 5 summated he would investigate the Capron proposition. "I would like nothing better than to get into Northwestern League baseball as a club owner, declares uapron "Tacoma Is a good town and under the proper management a club there should make money. The Northwestern League is evidently considered a splendid field for baseball operations by minor league people, ludg, lng from the stories Watkins brings from the East. He says that one Pa cific Coast League club wanted to ar range with him to make Tacoma a "farm" and that the prospective pur chasers, -who were nosed out by the option secured by the once-iamous New York Giant "Iron Man," were: Al Lewis, president of the Cotton States League; A(onte Cross, ex-Philadelphia Athletics" shortstop; president lierzog, of the Nashville Club, of the Southern League, and Pat Flaherty, of the f itts burg Pirates. Mike Donlin may become a major league manager. One report from Phila delphia has it that H. H. FTazee, New York theatrical man, and W. F. Baker, ex-Police Commissioner of New York, have purchased the Phillies from the Murphy-Fogel-Taft combination, ana that William H. Locke, secretary ot tne Pirates, and Mike Donlin, outfielder of the same club, are to be president and manager of the club, respectively. Baker is a brother-in-law of Locke, former newspaperman. Charles Doom, manager of the Phil lies, says that he cannot be ousted from the club, regardless of the sale -of the franchise. He has a managerial, con tract calling for another season. V Joe Cohn. of Spokane, is fearful lest Bob Brown, of Vancouver, pull off an other deal similar to that whereby he secured the services of Outfielder Kip pert last season. Cohn had it tipped off that Brown and "Ducky" Holmes, of Sioux City, were maneuvering to take Phil Cooney to Vancouver, ,Cohn had added, a clause to the papers in the Cooney trade to Sioux City that If he returns to the Northwestern League within a- year he must play with Spo kane. In exchange for Cooney Cohn gets Piersons, an inflelder, and Billiard, a pitcher, both from Columbus. Coval eskie, a Polish hurler, is another Indian acquisition, Connie Mack turning him over- to Spokane because of Houck's success. The .Portland" boy is making good with the Athletics and Mack hands Covaleskie to Cohn as a token of ap preciation. . - "Wlz"' Melkle, the San Franclsco-Ta-coma-Seattle pitcher of last season, played the role of a "bush ringer" at Daly City, Cal., the other day. Melkle pitched for the Daly City team under the name of Willows, and beat New Era, 3-2. He showed too much class for a rank busher and was cornered after the game, confessing that he was under a nom de plume, out to pick up a little "soft change." Bob Brown has secured several new players for his Canuck team. Kormick, a catcher, comes to Vancouver from Dayton of the Central League, and two pitchers, Thomas and one whose name is a secret, from St. Paul in the deal whereby Bill Goodman goes back to the American Association. Connie Mack Is now a half owner in the Philadelphia Athletics. This in cludes the club and Shibe Park. Mack secured his stock from Hough and Jones, directors since 1902, for approxi mately $100,000. Mack and Shibe are now sole owners of the Athletics. Walter McCredie, manager of the Portland Beavers, will be back In Port land Saturday, according to a letter received from Sioux City, where Man ager "Mae" is visiting with a brother. No definite Information has been re ceived as to trades but one report has it that Hank Butcher goes to Denver next season, McCredie making the deal through Cleveland. Just who comes to Portland In exchange for the Beaver's best trading asset is not known, but a pitcher is the most plausible answer. W. W. Metzger. concession man at Vaughn-street Park, established a speed record yesterday which amazed himself and several hundred, specta tors. He happened to bs on Sixth street near . Morrison at the moment of the final Marquam building collapse. "Metx" sprinted for a place of safety at breakneck speed, beating a speedy bluecoat by several yards. "I ran that 25 yards in nothing' is Metzger's boast. Flames Destroy Hydro-aeroplane. ST. LOUIS. Nov. 21.
