' Dame Football's most thrilling cam paign within recent years In the Pa cific Northwest will close this week with four big games scheduled for Thanklsgiving day. All six confer ence elevens will he found in the thick of the fray. - Interest In Portland naturally cen ters about the game between the Uni versity of Oregon and the crack Mult nomah clubmen. This battle has been an annual sporting event in Portland since 1896. Interest this Fall ought to be particularly keen, because Oregon appears ripe for a comeback after four years of defeat. Early in the Fall the Oregon Aggies defeated Multnomah, 10-6, and, as Ore gon and the Aggies tied 3-3 Saturday, the lemon-yellow stands a better chance than for two or three years. Of course the club is priming hard for Oregon, so that may make considerable differ ence. At Seattle Washington must hand out an artistic drubbing to "Washington State to claim a seventh consecutive championship. It will be but a paper championship, however, because the Oregon Aggies skimmed through the conference season undefeated and with a 0-0 score with Washington on the list. The Staters are crippled by the loss of Fullback Dietz and Washington should experience .little difficulty in piling up 10 or 15 points. Unless the Oregon Aggies suffer a severe slump after the big game they ought to win from Southern California by two touchdowns or more. At Walla Walla Idaho will not find Whitman such easy milling this Fall, judging from the way the Missionaries performed against Washington State. Pullman defeated Whitman 7-6 and Idaho 3-0. which would seem to make the Turkey day clash at Walla Walla much of a standoff. ... While Oregon's 3-3 tie score with the sensational Oregon Agricultural col legians may - have been rather disap pointing to Dr. Stewart, the Corvallis wizard can gain considerable solace from the statistics of the dramatic en gagement. An accurate compilation of the sta tistics reveals that in actual yardage gain3, exclusive of penalties, the Ag gies clearly established a big lead over the varsity. The Aggies gained 116 yards from scrimmage, as against 74 yards for Oregon. Add to this Ore gon's 40 yards on the one successful forward pass, however, and the figures show 116 yards for the Aggies and 114 for Oregon. The Aggies made the necessary yard age five times, as against twice for Oregon. The only big gain of the day, aside from Sharp's pass, was one of 15 yards negotiated by. Moose Abraham, of the Aggies. Most of the other gains were brought up abruptly between two and five yards. The Aggies were thrown back for a loss only once) for one yard and the varsity six times, for a total of 18 yards. ' The statistics complete arenas fol lows: Punta O. A. C, 16 for average of 43 yards; U. of O., 16 for average of 40 yards. Running back punts, Yeager's average, 10 yards; Sharp's average, 6.2 yards. Gain from scrimmage, O. A. C, 116 yards; C of O., 74 yards. Loss from scrimmage, O. A. C, one yard; u. of O., 18 yards. Forward passes, O. A. C, five; U. of O., one. Successful passes, O. A. C, one for five yards; U. of O., one for 40 yards. First down by scrimmage, O. A. C, five; U. of O.. two. Fumbles, O. A. C. five, recovered two; U. of O., six, recovered three. Penalties, O. A. C, five yards; U. of O., 45 yards. . . Northwest conference officials will hold their annual meeting in Portland December 4 and 5 and at that time it is hoped some definite action will be taken relative to numbering football players. The numerals were not used In the state championship game. Unfortunate ly both the Aggies and the varsity wore dark jerseys and alumni and out side football enthusiasts were at a loss to distinguish the various players. ' 1 "This makes my third year of col legiate football two at Pomona Col lege, in Southern California, and one at the Oregon Agricultural College and never was I so closely crowded on my punts as by pregon." This statement was made by Arthur Luta, the Aggies' crack punter, follow ing Saturday's battle at Corvallis. De spite his apparent hurry in getting off the kicks. Lutz gave a remarkable ex hibition. His kicks averaged exactly 43 yards. "I have never had a kick blocked on me in college football and only one in my highschool days," continued Lutz. "However, on my first place kick against Oregon somebody deflected the kick just a trifle or it would have gone directly over the bars." Gridiron Gossip THE Harvard-Yale game played in the Yale "bowl" at New Haven last Saturday set a new record for football attendance when close to 71,000 persons watched the annual gridiron struggle between the teams of the two New England Universities. This gathering is the largest that ever paid admission to a sporting event in the United States with the exception of the annual inter national automobile race held at the motordrome In Indianapolis. Attend sxnee at these Memorial Day 500-mile races has approached close to 100,000, which still fails below the record fig ures at big football games in England. There Is; however, no comparison be tween the gate receipts,, since the low est admission charge in these Ameri can events is double and triple the price abroad. . Although the four intersections! football games played in the East this year have resulted in victories for the home teams it appears almost certain that these contests will be repeated or even added to in 1915. Michigan and Harvard and Notre Dame at Tale both made splendid impressions and senti ment in both sections is apparently strongly in favor of a continuance of these meetings. -Coach Rockne of the Notre Dame team, in discussing these East vs. West games, said recently: "I am strongly in favor of intersec tional football, and hope to see Notre Dame on Yale's schedule next year BILLIARD CHAMPIONS TO PLAY TWO GAMES 1ST PORTLAND. Willie Boppe, Willie Hoppe, world's cham pion at balkline billiards, and Melbourne Inman, champion of the English game, will play two games, in Portland December 1 and 2 in their series of cham pionship matches. They will appear at McCredie's Billiard Palace. They are now playing in Seattle. again. I think that it will bring about a better understanding between the East and West besides making the task of Judging individual players easier. I think that within a year or two there will be many Eastern teams coming West for games. t will also give vari ety to the game; as teams will have to prepare to meet every kind of offense in these games. So. I am one who wants to see In tersectional games increase, even if the Eastern teams do defeat the Western teams this season, it will be good for the game and good for the country." The sentiment appears to be spread ing throughout the college athletic world and it appears certain that next Autumn will seo more intersectional games than ever before. Nbt only are the Eastern and Middle Western insti tutions moving' in this direction but the south as well. Several of the large universities south of Washington are already planning 1913 schedules- which will include contests with the leading elevens of the east. Yale met Virginia on the gridiron early this season and it is understood that Princeton, Har vard and Pennsylvania have all been sounded by managers of southern teams regarding the possibility of se curing a place upon their schedule for next year. The east this week will bring forth the Pennsylvania-Cornell game at Phil adelphia on Thursday, and the Army Navy game 09 the same field two days later. George Varnell and Stanley Borleske, Spokane football officials, and "Pink Griffith, Idaho coach, all of whom were in Portland yesterday en route home from the Corvallis game, favor Quar terback Hoover of the Whitman Col lege team for all-Northwest conference honors. Hoover is the lad who booted the field goal against Oregon early in tne year. He also starred against Washington State College.

At FISHEBAND HOWARD ARE HIGH BATSMEN Oaks, Angels and Sacramento-Missions Assist Slab sters to Honor Positions. 16 GET INTO .300 CLASS Ryan, of Los Angeles, Given Place as Most Consistent Pitcher, With IBaum Second and Higin botbam Easily Third. Prexy Baum's official Pacific Coast League averages tell a long and inter esting story in concise form, yet there's a lot the statistics don't telL For in stance, Gus Fisher, of Portland, finished as the leading batter of the league, with an average of .355, Del Howard, of the Seals, being three points to the rear and Wolter, of the Angels, third, at .328. But the figures don't reveal the identity of the goats. The "goats' in the case of Howard and Wolter were the pitchers of the Sacramento-Mission club. Fisher varied the programme by picking on the tail- end Oaks and the second place Angels as Ms chief victims. Against these two clubs he made more than half of his 156 hits. Fisher laced out a total of 41 hits against Oakland pitchers, 39 against Los Angeles, 29 against Sacramento- Mission, 26 against Venice and 21 against San Francisco. Perritt, of Los Angeles, was Fisher's worst victim, the Portland catcher finding him for nine hits during the season. Prough and Klawitter, of Oak land, were Fisher's second favorites, each yielding him eight hits. While Klawitter was with Sacramento Fisher found him for two hits, thus boosting his total to ten hits for the season against Klawitter, but of the pitchers on any one club. Perritt was the easiest for Fisher. . Fsnslng Proves KnflfllnB. Fisher bit safely in 99 of his 139 games. Eleven times San Francisco pitchers turned him back without a hit in a game; Venice and Los Angeles pitchers each turned the trick in eight games, Oakland 7, and Sacramento Mission, 7. Fanning was the most ef fective against Fisher, turning him back without a hit in four games. Fisher was 443 times at bat, scored 64 runs, made 156 hits, one home run; eight triples, 25 doubles and five sacri fices. Wolter played in 203 games, was 802 times at bat, scored 120 runs, made 263 hits, eight home runs, 21 triples, 34 doubles and 21 sacrifices. In all. the tables show 16 .300 hitters In the league, as against 12 last year, but of these Fisher, Wolter, Ellis, Los Angeles; Elliott, Venice; Abstein, Los Angeles; Fitzgerald, San Francisco; Borton. Venice; Gardner, Oakland; Orr, Sacramento, and Meloan, Venice, are the only players who started in more than 125 games. Yet although Portland showed so few .300 hitters, the team led in club bat ting with an average of .276. Just be low the .300 mark came five Portland players, all above .290: Los Angeles was second, with .274. Complete batting records of the Port land team are: Beavers' Batting Record. Player 3- Ab. R.

As shown in the official averages, Sunday, the most consistent pitcher of the Pacific Coast League for the 1914 season was Ryan, of Los Angeles. As against 24 games won, he lost 11,' giving him a percentage of .686. To be sure, Barham, of San Fran cisco, had a perfect average of 1000, but he pitched only three games. Martlnonl, of Portland, is in some thing the same position. He has the enviable average of .846, but he start ed only in 13 games, of which he won 11 and lost two. Bum In Second Place. Baum, of San Francisco, is fairly in second place. He won 21 and lost 12 games, giving him a percentage of .636. Two players have better aver ages Harkness of Venice and Eastley of Portland but the :one started in only nine games and the other in but six. Lush of Portland has the same percentage as Baum, but he pitched only 11 games. Hlgginbotham, of Portland, with 31 games wort and 20 lost, and a percent age of .608, has no serious competition for third place.

JOHN KLING, the veteran catcher of the Cubs and the Reds, has at last got a divorce from baseball, and is now wedded to the billiard game. "Noisy John" begun his 40th year during the past fortnight, as he was born in Kan sas City, still his home, on November 13. ?875. Kling is interested in a big bil liard academy In the Western Missouri metropolis, and of late he has been traveling about the country' displaying his prowess with the ivories and the cue. Kling isn't any Willie Hopp, but at that he can put tip a classy game on the green-topped tables. It was about 20 years ago that Jawn began his rampagin' on the diamond with a semi-professional crew of his native city. His first league engagement was with Rockford, 111., in 1896J He had previously been given a tryout with St. Louts, but failed to connect. In 1899 Kling played with Houston, in the Texas League, under the name of Kline. The next Autumn he was with St. Joe, in the Western League, and in 1901 he was ripe for the main show and was copped by the Cubs. Kling was one of the most effulgent stars of that famous old Cub machine, now but a memory. Wlien the machine at last fell to pieces, Kling was Induced by Joe Tinker to join the Cincinnati Reds. For many years Jawn has been threatening to quit and leave the game flat on its back, and apparently he has at last put the threat into execution. He considers -that billiards is a more appropriate game for a patriarch of going-on-40 than the diamond pastime. Klin? was the first major league player to take advantage of the uncon ditional release clause in the 1 agree ment between the magnates and the Players' Fraternity. Having spent ten years in the major clrcutts, Kling could not be sent to a minor league by Cin cinnati, and had to be given his uncon ditional release if no other major league club expressed a desire for his services at the waiver price. COLTJMBIA PARK TEAM WINS Leadership of Archer & Wiggins League Retained In Game.

More Than SO Shooters Compete In Event at Traps at Jenne Station and . 40 Kovrla Are Given as PrUea. . Eight women competed in the "tur key shoot" yesterday at the Portland Gun Club's traps at Jenne station, on the Estacada carline. It was the largest number of feminine shooters ever to appear at one time on the local grounds. Miss Gladys Reid was so good with the shotgun that she won two turkeys and Mrs. E. H. Keller won one gobbler. More than BO shooters were out for turkeys and 40 of the Thanksgiving birds were given as prizes. W. W. Cald well was the most successful scatter gun artist of the day. for he took home orders for three birds and one was re ceived' in a shoot-off. Several men re ceived two prizes. Henry Wlhlon, high man of the day with 95 per cent, won" two turkey events. For the most part, the scores were low, dtie probably to the wind which carried the clay pigeons with greater speed apd angles. The day was too cold als and the threatening weather caused many members of the club to remain at home. - . Superintendent Matthews, of the club, has covered' trap number three with canvas, making it. possible for shooters to perform whether it is rain ing or not. He also has cleared part of Johnson Creek, which runs through the grounds, and all will be in readi ness for the Joint fly and bait-casting tournament to be held at the- grounds next Sunday. Secretary Joseph A. Addleman has received entries from all parts of the state and the annual meeting of the Oregon Sportsmen's League to be held at the Commercial Club December "7 is sure to be well attended.

DOPE IN FAVOR OF VARSITY Showing Against Aggies Puts Much Ginger Into Squad and It Will Be Strengthened by Addition of Tom Cornwall. THAXKSG IVrXG GAMES IX THE NORTHWEST. Oregon vs. Multnomah Club, In Portland 1918 score, 0-19. Oregon Aggies vs. University oC Southern California, at Tacoma. Washington State vs. Washington, at Seattle 3913' score, 0-20. Idaho vs. Whitman, at Walla Walla 1913 score, 29-S. - - UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Nov. 22. (Special.) The Oregon team returned . from Corvallis last night somewhat battered and bruised from the 3-te-3 fight with he Oregon Agri cultural College, but ready to give its atentlon to preparations for the annual Thanksgiving day game with Multno mah Club in Portland. None of the varsity men were se verely hurt and with light workouts Monday 'and Tuesday they should be in fine trim for Thursday's encounter. Philbin twisted his ankle, but with three days of rest Hay ward will have the big tackle back in the game in as good shape as ever. Saturday's showing has put so much ginger in Bezdek's recruits that noth ing will satisfy them but the scalp of the Multnomab Club team. Dope fa vors the varsity. The Aggies defeated Multnomah, while Oregon played Dr. Stewart's men to a standstill. Cornwall to Strengthen Team. In addition the local team will be strengthened with Tom Cornwall at left end. Cornwall is heavy and a sure tackier and his addition' to the lineup will strengthen the Oregon ends. He was kept out of Saturday's game because It was discovered that he had played with Washington and Jefferson College, in Pennsylvania, last season and was therefore ineligible to com pete in conference ball under the one year rule. The remainder of the team undoubt edly will line up as against the Aggies, with the possible exception that Hunt ington will start the game at left half in place of CrowelL Huntington went in during the last half and booted the ball through the sticks for the much needed three points. Sharp to Call SIsnala. Sharp, the former Multnomah basket ball player, will be calling signals Thursday against his former club mem bers. The littie freshman took Cor nell's place when It became evident that the veteran field general could not appear. Sharp played a heady and consistent game. He is a sure man at handling punts and not one of Lutz' twisting spirals escaped .him. Beckett will be depended on to do the booting for the varsity. If he can keep up the record he established yes terday his punts will materially assist in keeping Oregon's goal line out of danger. v This season s team is one of the hard est fighting that has . represented the university in Beveral years. Not a team in the conference has crossed the Ore gon line this Fall on straight, old style footfall. Washington made its touchdown on a forward pass and the only other scoring against -Oregon haj been on field goals. CLUB CAPTAIX OPTIMISTIC Chance Seen for Multnomah to Beat Oregon Thanksgiving Day. James Convlll, captain of the Mult nomah Club team, which is scheduled to meet the University of Oregon tea Thanksgiving day on Multnomah Field, believes the clubmen have a chance to win. The usual bundle of gloom Is on the Job, however. The Multnomah captain cannot get his players to turn out for practice, he says. "All our men have been stars in their day," said Convlll yesterday after the morning workout on Multnomah Field, "and they have a hunch that they do not have to get out and do a little pre liminary work, but can play on their reputations. Unless they turn out better than they have been of late half the team won't know the signals or formation.' About six members of the team are all that have put in appearance up to the present time, according to Convlll. Captain Convlll announced the line up . as follows: Philbrook, left end; Convlll. left tackle; Wells, left guard; Cherry, center; Rogers, right guard: Bailey, right tackle; O'Rourke. right end: Rupert. quarterback; Francis, right half;. Keck, fullback; Rader. left half. Taylor, Day, strieoig, ar greave. Holden and Donaldson are on the reserve list. The Multnomah line will average 208 pounds, as against Oregon s 18a T riCTOKi and ueleat recorus show V the Los Angeles pitchers, as far as their games against Portland were concerned, to be better balanced than the pitching staff of any other club in the league. Pol Perritt was the only Los Angeles pitcher whose winning and losing columns against the Beavers did not come within one game of balancing. Portland won 21 and lost 18 games for the season against the Angels. Perritt and Chech were the only Angel pitchers to lose four games to the Beavers. Chech broke even, winning four and losing four Perritt won only one game against Port land, losing four Ehmke broke even, winning three and losing three. Port land beat Mussei three times and lost to him tiwee; Port land beat Love twice- Pol Perritt and lost to him once. Hughes and Ryan were the only Los Angeles pitchers to win more games than they lost against the Beavers. Hughes won four games and lost three against Portland; Ryan won three and lost two.
