It must be said that luck was against Lincoln High In Its furious - battle against the Washlngtonlans on Mult nomah Field yesterday. Score, Wash ington. 3, Lincoln 0. A place kick from the 12-yard, linein the second quarter by Halfback Strow bridge did the trick. That was the nearest the East Siders came to the Rallsplilters goal line during the en tire contest.

Earl's warriors bucked the line with out any gain Just before th score and then on the fourth down Quarterback Korraandln called for the place kick. The Llncolnltes had one chance to tie the score, but it went for nought. Center Druschell passed tho ball back to Captain Ray Groce, who fumbled It a trifle, and the attempt of Erie Free man to put the oval between the up rights from the 22-yard lino went wide about a foot. . This occurred in the third quarter. West Siders Are Refreshed. For the most part the playing" was In the winners' territory and when the Becond half started the West Siders seemed to be the more re freshed. In the first period Lincoln Hhad the ball on Its opponents' four- yard line but no score could be reg istered. When the quarter ended the ball was in Lincoln's possession on Washington's 40-yard line. A record was established in the opening quarter lor no time was taken out either for injuries or penalties. During the second canto Coach Earl's Bide showed to the best advantage and it was in this frame that the only score of the contest was annexed. By a series of line plays, featuring Young Parsons, the pigskin was shot to the losers' 15-yard line. It took three downs to advance the ball but three yards and then with little effort Strow brldge performed the act that won the ennual affaii. This win gives five victories out of the nine campaigns So the Kast Siders. Lincoln seemed to realize that it would have to score early after the third quarter opened and line bucks and a 25-yard forward pass from Freeman to Groce found the spheriod on the Washlngtonlans' 25-yard line. Three plays were tried. Including an Incomplete forward pass, and then Freeman tried to continue on the road to be a hero. I Busch Breaks Through Line. When the fourth period opened the ball was in Washington's possession on its own 28-yard line. Frank Busch broke "through the heavy East Siders and blocked a kick and Washington was forced to punt out from behind its own goal line. Coach Earl's eleven made a spurt when yardage was ripped off three times in succession by Charles John son, Parsons, Strowbridge and Norman din. Frank Busch blocked a punt in this quarter again, but an opponent re covered the ball. The contest was free from undue Toughness and. the record crowd, of the season was out. The official attend ance as given out by Manager Lillard of Lincoln, Manager Hunt for Washing ton and Manager Davis of the Multno mah Club totaled 2550; more than 1000 less than the number which saw the contest last season, when Lincoln was a 7-to-0 victor.

Substitute to Fill Big Hole In Lineup Made by Loh of Malarkey for Washington Game Unpicked. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene. Nov.. 4. (Special.) Four assistant coaches are working with Bezdek in an effort to mold the crippled Oregon team Into Bhaoe before the game with the University of Washington on Novem ber 14. "Dick" Smith, a Eugene attorney and Walter Camp selection for all-Amerl- can fullback, Js drilling the Oregon backfield substitutes in order to de velop a man to take Malarkey s place at left half. Malarkey is out of the game for the rest of the season, because of an injury to his eye received ten days ago in the Idaho game. Besides Lyle Bigbee and Montelth, who have been substituting all season at half. Dean Crowell is making a strong bid for the vacancy. Crowell was kept out of the play last year be cause of injuries and has been bothered more or. less this Fall. The competl tion between these three men for the place at left half Is close and hard. Bigbee excels at leading interference and receiving forward passes; Montelth showed up In good, style In the Willam ette game as an open field runner, and Crowell's chance of selection is based on his sameness and fighting ability. George Hug. at present principal of the Eugene High School and former all North west center on the Oregon team, has been helping the line men. Ore gon's chance of buHding a line that can stop the Washington backs depends on the recovery of Sam Cook. The doctor reports that if all goes well with his attack of mumps, he will be out of the hospital by Saturday or Monday. This gives him less than a week to get in condition for the Seattle contest. Crossman. a 200-pound recruit from last year's scrubs, has been taking Cook s place In practice. Cornell's wrenched knee is still keep ing the all-star quarter on the side lines. His position on the varsity is being filled by Huntington, a fresh man from The Dalles. Huntington is a hard tackier and in the Moscow game he was able to get away for gains around the end. Oregon's Chancea of Scoring Victory Have Been Lessened Considerably. Outlook for Saturday Dark. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene, Nov. 4. (Special.) The Oregon team will be without tho services of Floyd Payne, the star distance man. In the intercollegiate cross-country run to be held at Corvallis between the Confer ence Colleges Saturday. Payne has been suffering from ton silitis and is not In condition to stand the strain of a long run. Hayward decided today not to take any chance permanently of injuring his long-distance star. Payne was considered a strong contender for first place. He has a record of 9:52 in the two-mile and was a consistent point winner in the distance races last season. With Payne out of the meet. ' Ore gon's chance of victory has been great ly lessened. Of. the three men who will represent the varsity - Saturday only one, Chet Huggins, is a letter man. Huggins was not In college last season and the coming meet will be his first college race for two years. Lee Bostwick and Don Belding will be Huggins teammates. Bostwick was a member of last year's squad who has been showing steady Improve ment. He strained a cord, however in the try-outs Monday and has not been able for the last two days to run in his accustomed form. Belding is a freshman from Grants Pass. He is a new man at the running game, but has made a good showing in practice. Nelson and Langley. both point win ners on last year's track team, failed to try out. Nelson, who holds - the Northwest 880 record, was counted on as a certain member of the team. All of the conference colleges with the exception of the University of Washington are expected to be rep resented in the meet Saturday. The reverse system of scorirg will be used first place counting one. second two. and so on. The team with the least number of points winning. BUX JAMES OF PORTLAND WINS A 11-Americans Defeat All-Nationals in Two-to-One Game. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 4. Bill James, of the St. Louis American League team pitched the All-Americans to a 2-to-l victory over the All-Nationals today, evening up the series being contested on Ewing field. Incidentally James allowed but one hit, his teammates ac cumulating six safeties from Tesreau's delivery. In respect to the memory of Jack Sheridan, the famous umpire who died Monday night, the players on both teams wore bands of creps on their sleeves. The score: R. H. E. R. H. E.

The Cottage Grove rifle team got back into something like its old-time form at the annual shoot held on lcal ranges last week. The cankers' trophy, which was won two years ago and lost last year, again comes here by a team average of 78.84. Roseburg was next closest with. 77.93.

ACK RYAN.' of Los Angeles, was the only pitcher in the league who won more games than be lost against every other club in the league. Ryan had a margin of one game over Port land, San Francisco and Sacramento- Mission; he had a three-game margin over Venice, and he had a seven-game margin over Oakland. Against Portland and Sacramento- Mission, Ryan won three and lost two; against San Francisco he won four and lost three; against Venice he won five and lost two, and against Oak land he won nine and lost two. Higglnboth a m, of Port la nd. shares with Ryan the honor of win ning the most Championship Title in S -Cornered Condition, but Turkey Day Game With Washington State Likely to Muddle Dope Worse. BY ROSCOE FAWCETT. Gridiron fans in Eastern Washington are in for a ran tidbit Saturday when Washington State and Idaho fight out their annual xootball duel. Johnny Bender has lost for two years hand running but this year it may be dif f erent We base this opinion on the show ings of both teams against Oregon, Bezdeck's squad beat Pullman 7-0 and Idaho 13-a. Against Oregon, Washington State revealed a fairly stiff defense, about on a par with Idaho, and a much more powerful offense. In fact, at no time did Idaho threaten Oregon, whereas the Pullmanites were knocking at Oregon's back door Beveral times. Its sure to be a grlmly-lougnt en gagement, however, and an upset in the dope is't at all improbable. Last year Idaho wan 3-0. Former scores follow: 1S84 W. s. C 10, Idaho 0. 1893 W. S. C. 10.

Washington State already has lost to both Oregon teams, so there Is no chance of Bender winning the cham pionship even by defeating Washing ton on Thanksgiving. The title lies between Washington, Oregon and the Oregon Aggies and the twist of the schedule which sends Ore gon and the Aggies against each other at Corvallis November 21 favors Wash ington to repeat. Oregon must beat both the Oregon Aggies and Washington to win the championship and about the best the Aggies can do is to tie by beating both Oregon and Idaho. Of course, there is some chance of Washington State walloping the champs on Turkey day and such a con tingency would scramble the dope and boost the claims of the two Oregon elevens. It Is to be hoped, at any rate, that some team wins definitely and con clusively. Post-season embrogllos kick up a lot of noise but give little satis faction to either side. A new feature was introduced into Mid-Western football last Saturday when all rooting was ordered stopped during calling of signals at the Chicago-Wisconsin game. This is a good move, for it does away with the de lays occasioned by a noisy crowd. The absence of cheers at the Wisconsin- Chicago game marked a step in ad vance. Walter Shlel, captain of the Wash lngton team, knows how Doc Cook felt when he got back from discovering the North Pole. Shlel is charged with shooting game out of season near Ta- coma, but he says some one must have used his name. let me omcer e efftres he recognizes Shlel's published picture.

IJn to me oeginning or tne last week the record book balanced in Klepfer's favor against each club, but in the last week Los Angeles slipped over one win on him, which balanced up his record with four games won and four lost against the Angels. Against all other clubs Klepfer won more than he lost; against Sacramento-Mission he won five and lost two; against Oakland' he won five and lost three; against San Francisco he won five and lost four, and against Portland he won four and lost two. Up to the last two months of the season, Higglnbotham. of Portland, was the only pitcher in the league who had won more games than he had lost against each club, but Venice slipped over one victory on him in each of Its last two series with Port land, and San Francisco beat him twice in the last week of the session, and thus put these two clubs tn the wrong side of Higginbotham's ledger in bal ancing up lor the season.

Berkeley. Nov. 4. (Special.) The Varsity certainly sprang a surprise on the fans In Saturday's game with Santa Clara when It scored a victory over the Missionaries. 25 to 0. After the Santa Clara game at Palo Alto, when Lho Mlsslonites nearly played Coach Brown s men off their feet. California was conceded a fair fighting chance for the game here. As the team came on the field the dlfter-v ence In weight was almost ludicrous. Santa Clara had in all reality a team of giants, and California hopes began to sink. Ten minutes after the whistle bad blown the bleachers began to take no tice. The dope was being upset. The Varsity was playing all around its big opponents, outfighting them In every department of the game. At the end oi tne nrsi nan tne score was 11 to 0. From that time on every thing was California. Santa Clara didn't have a chance. Let Us Talk Clothes . to you a little. You need a suit or overcoat about now. You want stylish, well-made apparel, of course.
