DR. STEWART IS WORRIED
Choice of Light Ends Ilequired by
I.ohsf-s; Oregon Scouts Get Hold
or Hoskins, Big Freshman,
Aggie Coacli Declares.
Bear stories are not uncommon to
American intercollegiate football, but
the Oregon Aggies appear to have a
real grievance against fate. Last iaU
the- Aggies booked the heaviest sched
ule a Western team has ever been
called upon to face, this including, in
tersectional games with Syracuse, the
Michigan Assies and Southern Califor
nia, In addition to the regular confer
ence battles. And now only four of
the veterans are on hand to uphold the
orange and black.
Dr. E. J. Stewart, athletic director
and football coach at Corvallis, was
a visitor in Portland yesterday, fresh
irom ms tootDall camp at JNewport-on-the-Beach.
Starn Fail to Return.'
"I don't like to holler 'wolf, " said
he. "but really we are in a bad way
from a football standpoint. Last Kail
when I scheduled those Eastern games
j. inougnc l wouia nave tutz, Ander
son, Smyth, Billy Kin,? and Hoerline
back in harness. Smyth is the only
one of the bunch that is back in school
and lie is Ineligible through faculty
ruling. And on top of this Hofer was
hurt at the beach camp and cannot
possibly get back' before our Whitman
and Washington State College games.
"That leaves me with only Laythe,
Schuster, Yeager, Billie and Abraham
of last year's squad to begin the cam
paign. Cole, the big discus thrower, is
the only big fellow among the new
crop. We had lloskins bound for our
college from Echo, Or., but somehow
he got sidetracked by Oregon scouts
and 1m n 3v on Hugo Bezdfk'a squad,
playing fullback. Broich, onther husky
weighing close to ISO pounds, reported
at camp but departed alter one day.
He has taken a teaching job in East
ern Oregon. Hoerline is on a ranch at
Hood River, Lutz is coaching at lied
lands, Cal.. and Anderson and Billy
King- will not be back."
Surprises May He in Store.
Coach Stewart says if he can get by
the Whitman and Washington State
embroglios unscatched he will not feel
eo dubious.
"With new coaches at both institu
tions. Borlesko at Whitman and Dietz
at Washington State, I look for those
schools to spring a big surprise this
.year," added Dr. Stewart. "Borlesko
has herded along with him practically
all of the good high school talent from
1'ortland.
"Oregon, too, appears to have a whale
of a squad coming up. I think Ore
gon will have the heaviest team in the
conference. it's too bad that Washing
ton backed out of its contract with
Oregon, because I believe : Oregon
would have given Dobie a licking this
year."
KndH Will Be I.lgbt.
It had been Coach Stewart's inten
tion to use Hofer and Smyth at ends
and Laythe and Cole at tackles this
Kail but Hofer's injury and Smyth's
ineligibility spoiled this little plot. So
the initial lineup likely will show two
light ends in action, Schuster, ICO
pounder ' of last year's squad; Most, a
new man, weighing 160, from Lebanon,
and Laird, of last year's second string.
The Aggie battle front as now com
posed consists of the following:
Center, Bissett, 160: guards. Dad
King, 180, and Thompson, 178; tackles,
Laythe, 220. and Cole, 195; end?, Schii
ptfer.160 : Moist, 160, and Laird, 165;
halves, Yeager, 158: Allworth, 167;
Newman. 172, and Dutton, 155; full
backs, Billie, 178. and Abraham, 178.
Dutton is a recruit from Concordia,
Kan., and he seems to be fast. Dutton
runs the century in around 10 2-5, but
has not had much football experience.
Thompson was a student at Corvallis
last year, but did not make the team.
He formerly attended Iowa,
GAS WRECKS LAUNCH CABIN
Boy Injured and Parent Left Sitting
in Demolished Hull.
RED BANK, N. J., Sept. 11. William
Langheim, 16 years old. son of William
Langheim, of No. 61 Central street,
Brooklyn, was seriously injured - one
night recently by an explosion of acet
ylene aboard his father's yacht In the
Bherewsbury River. His parents were
uninjured, although the cabin was
blown off above their heads.
Mr. and Mrs. Langheim and. their son
came here to remain for the week-end.
The yacht was lying off Captain C. P.
Irving's landing when the son went
forward, to arrange the lights for the
night. As he etruck a match there
was an explosion of acetylene from a
leaky tank.
The boy was hurled backward al
most into the water. His ankles were
badly burned. The explosion ripped
the cabin from the boat, leaving Mr.
and Mrs. Langheim sitting in the
wrecked hull.
By sculling with a spare oar Mr.
Langheim managed, to beach the craft
and put out the flames, aided by sev
eral 'men who hurried to the river
when they heard the explosion. The
boy was taken to the office of Dr.
William Sayres. where his burns were
dressed.
SAUSAGE MAKER VISITS

PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 1L Alphonso.
King- of Spain, Is represented here by
two good-looking mustachioed men
who drew considerable notice from the
loungers In the Adelphia Hotel by their
Impeccable appearance and the foreign
grace of their gestures.
The register, in its cold, formal way,
identified them as Alejandro Perello
and Juan D. Zaracondugl, both of Bar
celona. A reporter made inquiry.
"Ah, dios!" breathed Senor Zaracon
dugl, noting the modest hesitation of
his companion. "Senor Perello is the
president of the great Herederos do
Juan Dorra Company, of which you
know."
And -when the reporter admitted he
didn't, Eenor Perello bimself joined
1n and blushingly announced himself as
the royal sausage maker of the Spanish
peninsula and empire.
"Yes. yes. King Alphonso, he has
eaten many, many of the fine big saus
ages made by Senor Perelio's company.
And the Senor Perello is here to buy
45 tons of select sausage casings."
And Senor Zaracondugl?"
"Ah, Senor." shrugged he, "I travel
with Senor Perello. Jt is I who make

Loss of Hofer Leaves Only One
Veteran on Line.

OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
TRAINING CAMP, Newport, Or., Sept.
16. (Special.) Clouds of gloom de
scended upon the training camp early
in the week, when ex-Captain Hofer
broke a bone in his right hand. The
injury will necessitate a six weeks' va
cation from football practice. The big
tackle may be in condition for the'
Michigan game, at East Lansing, Mich.,
October 30.
The loss of Hofer places a severe
burden upon the shoulders of Dr. Stew
art and his assistants, as Laythe, all
Northwest tackle last year, is now the
only veteran in the line, and it will be
a difficult task to build a line of con
ference caliber for the early games.
"Hungry" Smyth, who would fit in
nicely at the other tackle position, is
ineligible for the first games.
End Combination Breaks Up.
Hofer and Cole were slated for the
ends, but the injury has broken the
combination and Cole is now found at
tackle, while Moist, of Lebanon; Barry,
of Astoria; Briggs, of Albany, and
Laird, of Corvallis, are hustling for the
end berths.
' Bissett, who played end last year
and half-back in the early scrimmages,
has been moved to the pivot position.
He passes well, is fast and aggressive
and is the best bet for the position.
Thompson and Brooks are playing the
guard positions.
Billie, Aiworth, Newman and Dutton
are in the backfield. Dutton, who hails
from Concordia, Kan., is one of the
lightest men in the squad, but is fast
and a shifty runner with the ball.
Punttns? Is Occupying Attention.
"Dad" King, who is a likely-looking
candidate for guard, has been ill for
several days and unable to take rart
in the daily scrimmages. Weiler has
recovered from his "Charley horse" and
cold.
Much attention is being directed to
punting and place kicking. The num
ber of prospective punters has dwin
dled to four Captain Billie. Laythe,
Smythe and Cole. None of the quartet
are consistent kickers. Iaythe gets the
most distance, but is slow in getting
off his kicks. Cole bas displayed some
ability in negotiating place kicks.
Hard practice will continue until to
morrow, when the squad will return to
Corvallis for registration on Saturday.

The trouble arose when a wire fell
and the streetcar man ' was put on
guard to warn pedestrians away from
it. Garrett arrived to find the guard
some distance away from the danger

lacerated, bruised and otherwise made

"He was given a thorough thrash

after he agreed to pay all the hospital

JAIL CRITICISED BY BOY
Police Sergeant's Xpplicw Disap
proves of Conditions.
CHICAGO, Sept. 12 Moulton Title-
baum, though only 11 years old, is a
reformer who believes that the lot of
persons confined in Jails and prisons
should be made easier and happier.
On a recent Saturday evening Moul
ton spent considerable time in visiting
the police station in Evanston, and was
much disgusted "with the conditions
which he found in the cellroom, though
he thought the policemen themselves
were gentlemen.
He is the nephew of Sergeant Enoch
J. Moberg, of the Evanston force, and
after his visit he made a report to his
uncle, which, in his own words is
as follows: . '
"It seems to me that any person who
is confined in your cells will never dis
obey the law again. He will have
learned his lesson. When my teacher
asks us to write themes next year, I
am going to write about my visit
with the Evanston police."
