MEETING DECEMBER 4-5
Washington State College Will Ask
Sot Forfeiture of Oregon Game
on Cornwall's Account and
Gonzaga Plea Is Expected.
BY ROSCOB FAWCETT.
Athletic managers of the Northwest
conference colleges have shifted their
place of meeting from Portland to
Spokane. At least so says John R,
Bender, of Pullman, the secretary. This
session will be held December 4 and 6
and during its two nights' stand
schedules for all athletics for 19X5 will
be drafted.
Two other important matters are
slated for action.
One of these has to do with an ex
pected request from Gonzaga College
for admittance into the conference.
The second is a protest from Washing
ton State College on the playing of
Cornwall of Oregon against the Wash
ington Aggies. Coach Bender will ask
that Oregon's 7-0 victory be annulled
because Cornwall appeared a few min
utes in the fourth quarter against his
team.
Cornwall played at Washington and
Jefferson College in Pennsylvania last
year, participating against Yale. Penn.
sylvania State. Carlisle and Pittsburg.
The Oregon Aggies dug up the dope
on him, and when it was shown to the
varsity officials Cornwall was prompt
ly barred from the state championship
game.
"Manager Tiffany tried to get a line
on Cornwall this Fall. I did not use
him in any of my early games as a
regular because I was not sure of his
eligibility," explained Coach Bezdek of
Oregon at Corvallis the other day.
"Cornwall evidently had his tracks
well covered. We were unable to get
word from the registrar. The athletic
manager wrote us that he was all
right, so he was caled upon against
Washington." i
Cornwall will be eligible next year
and "Bez" is counting upon him
strongly. The Washington and Jeffer
son star will be used against Multno
mah Thursday tit one of the wing po
sitions. Ue weighs about 185 pounds.
Concerning Gonaaga College, the
Bpokane Catholic school made applica
tion for entry into the conference last
year, but was turned down. The Gon
zagans have put up such a sterling
article of ball this Fall, however, that
the faculty heads may deem it wise to
wave the mystic scepter.
Just at present a little bitterness
exists between Whitman and Gonzaga,
owing to the latter's scheduling a
counter attraction In Spokane at the
time of the Whitman-Washington State
contest. In a letter to the writer.
Coach Harmon, of Gonzaga, defends his
actions with much strenuousity.
"Recently in The Oregonian you said
there was no excuse for the conflict
because the conference schedule was
drafted and published during the holi
days," says Harmon, in part- "Never
theless, I have in my posslon a sched
ule of the Whitman games, published
as late as September, showing the
Whitman-W. S. C. game to be playsd
In Pullman."
Unquestionably the conference mana
gers should have notified Gonzaga as
to their intentions to play a game in
Spokane. Still, when the schedule was
drafted in Portland it was given out
and published in all the Northwest
papers that Whitman and Washington
State probably would play in Spokane
on the disputed date.
Gonzaga must have known this and
If there had been any intent on its part
to co-operate with the conference any
probable conflicts in playing dates
could have been obviated at the cost of
a 2-cent stamp.
That Gonzaga resented the invasion
of Spokane by the conference is shown
by Coach Harmon's closing paragraph:
"Conference games in Spokane al
ways have been generously supported
by Gonzaga students. They will con
tinue to support games here in the fu
ture, but, in all fairness to the home
management, we would appreciate the
use or a little ethical judgment by con
ference managers in that they notify us
of their plans when they contemplate
playing in Spokane."
Individual stars always have touch
hoeing in the important football games
or tne .fail. Jonnny Parsons almost
licked Washington single-handed last
Fall by wriggling through the entire
purple team for a touchdown on Mult
nomah Field. Profiting by this ex
perience, Dobie built a special defense
for Johnny this year and as a result
the Oregon phenom found himself
smothered.
Dobie planned the same reception for
IMig iiorlesKe a few years &ro when
Nig- was starring for Whitman College.
Seattle fans always wondered where
Borleske got his reputation until two
years ago when the Lincoln coach
donned a suit for Tom McDonald's all
stars against Multnomah Club. Bor
leske staged one of the grandest exhi
bitions of football that Christmas Day
which Seattle had ever witnessed.
This sowing of mines in the path of
me scars was carried out to the nth
power in the recent Oregon state
. championship game. Neither Lutz, of
the Aggies, nor Parsons, of Oregon, was
able to get away for a single substan
tial gain. . ,.
"I don't see how you stODDed Par.
sons," the writer remarked to Coach
btewart, or tne Aggies, after the game.
" TA7 i 1 1 n fir T-I I ..

TJNIVERSITT OF OREGON, Eugene,
Nov. 23. (Special.) The Oregon team
limped through light signal practice
this afternoon and topped off the even
ing with a steaming session under the
supervision of "Bill" Hayward. Kinks,
bruises, stiff Joints and "Charlie horses
are still common after Saturday's great
battle with the Aggies and it will be a
ew days until the men regain their
forWer good condition.
'We are out to win Thursday from
Multnomah," said Coach Beadek, "and
although we will be outweighed by the
club men, I believe that they will not
escape undergoing the battle of their
lives.
Oregon hopes for a dry field In Fort-
land Thursday. This condition would
Increase the chances of the speeTdy
backs . getting away for - substantial
gains through a broken field or around
the ends. The defeats of the past years
have shown clearly the hopelessness
of the collegians attempting to annex
yardage through the strong Multnomah,
scrimmage zone. Captain Parsons,
Sharp, Hunting and Bryant should have
a good day on a fast field.
Five new faces will greet followers
of Portland football when Oregon trots
upon the field Thanksgiving day. They
are: Powrie, Sharp, Huntington, Cobs-
man and Cornwall. To the first four,
Oregon attributes the success of last
Saturday s encounter. These men filled
vacated positions given up by injured
warriors and -performed the 'work in a
manner that caused even the most op
timistic fan to gasp in surprise.
Absolutely the greatest bunch of
fighters that I ever have handled,"
remarked Bezdek, after the Aggie
game. '
His opinion is the expression of the
oldest followers of varsity football in
Eugene and even the team of 1906, a
champion aggregation, has been rated
no better.
To win from the club men would
atone for much of the misfortune that
has followed Bezdek this year, and even
his cripples would smile with satisfac
tion. The feeling that Oregon hasn't
a chance has in no manner cropped out
and her chances are recognized as bet
ter than those of a year ago.

Men to Make Tacoma Trio.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
Corvallis. Nov. 23. (Special.) Bat
tered and bruised, and sore in body
and SDirit. the Oregon Agricultural
College football ' eleven worked out
lightly this afternoon to be in shape
to sustain their season s recora 01 no
defeats and to put away the University
of Southern California team in the
battle to be staged in the Tacoma btad-
lum. Thanksgiving day.
The squad will leave Corvallis to
morrow afternoon. The Southern Cali
fornia team left Los Angeles yester
day, and should arrive in Tacoma to
morrow or Wednesday morning. Dr.
Stewart will take about 18 men on the
triD.
Weather conditions are being
watched carefully. Dry weather and
a fast field should make it a difficult
proposition for the Aggies to stop the
speedsters from tne souin. un me ot.n
er hand, on a wet gridiron, the advan
tage seemingly should be with the
Beavers, as the local eleven will out
weljrh the visitors probably 10 pound
to the man, and should be able to gain
yardage consistently by nammerlng th
line.
Dr. Stewart Is far from confident of
the ability of his boys to win at Taco
ma. He said this morning in this con
nectlon: "Of course It would be mighty
fine to beat University of Southern
California and hang up a record of
eitrht erames without a defeat, but w
are laboring under a mighty handicap
Thursday, and I am afraid that it will
be too great. A game like last Satur
day's is bound to be followed by a
slump. ,
"The men were primed for Saturday,
and the University of Southern Califor
nia game is an anti-climax. If ther
ever was one. We will go after it
hard, however, and I think the men
will make a good showing despite the
fact that they are badly bruised up and
exhausted."

Mark Set 10 Year Ago by Deacon
Van Baren.
THANKS to the ease with which he
connected with Oakland and Mis
sion ' pitchers, Harry Wolter, of Loa
Angeles, during 1914, tame nearer to
breaking a Coast League record of 10
years standing than anybody has come
In that time. Back in 1903. Deacon
Van Buren, of Portland, dean of the
Coast League, pounded out a total of
281 hits in 205 games. That has stood
to this day as the record for the most
hits in one season.
In 1911, Buddy Rvan. of Portland.
drove out 247 hlta " '
the nearest that f
anybody has come s
to Van Buren a rec
ord until this year J
Wolter's total this 1
season is 264 hits in '
202 games. 17 hits
shy of equaling Van t
Riirpn'H ronrd. &
Wolter made more
hits off pitchers of
the S a c r a m ento-
Mission club than ';
1
Via ritrl n era 1 n Rt m n V l-.-:;r:yM:-i2
other club. His sea- "eaeon Vuli.ru.
son record shows 62 hits against
this club, 61 hits against Oakland. 65
against Venice, 44 against San , Fran
cisco, and only 42 against the champion
Portland Club.
But it wasn't the fault of Sailor
Stroud, that. Wolter made more hits
against the Sacramento-Mission Club
nan against any omer ciud. wolter
faced Stroud In eight games during the
season and he made only two hits off
him for the year. In six games Stroud
turned Wolter back without a hit, more
times than any other pitcher in the
league. Pernolrr of San Francisco,
came In for second honors, turning
Wolter back without a bit in four
games. Hitt. of Venice, also turned him
back in four games: Fanning, of San
Francisco, and Klepfer, of Venice, and
West, of Portland, each turned Wolter
back in three games.
Wolter hit safely in 151 of the 202
games he played. He was turned back
hltless 12 games against Venice; 11
games each against Portland and San
Francisco; 10 games against Sacramen
to-Mission, and seven games against
Oakland.
Wolverton's fifth place crew made
more double' plays than any other club
and also hit into more double plays
than any other club. Los Angeles made
the fewest double plays and San Fran
cisco hit into the fewest double plays.
Los Angeles and Sacramento-Mission
tied for the honor of making the most
double plays against the champion
Beavers, each team making 32. Venice
made fewer double plays against Port
land than against any other club, but
made up for it by making 49 double
plays against Sacramento-Mission, far
more than any other club made against
another club.
