Four hours of steely rain, which, com
menced at noon, dashed the hopes of
the Sunday fans who had expected to
Bit in on a double-header between
Portland and the champion Seals. Both
games were called off nd the Sels
departed for home later in the dy with
five out of six gmes to their credit.
Instead of gamboling out. on the
greensward, the ball stars lolled on the
; playing benches and -talked golf. A
golfing mtch between Rudolph Wil
helm. state golf champion, and a ball
player armed with a fungo stick, was
supposed to have been decided yester
day, hence the talgfest.
Although it was too wet to decide
the wager yesterday. Champion Wil
helm appeared on the scene for a little
test of distance. On his first shot he
cleared the leftfield fence easily,
using a brassie, and on his second his
ball hit high on the roof of the Chap
man School building and bounded over.
Justin Fitzgerald, of the Seals, used
to be a caddy around San Francisco
years ago. and he cracked one near the
centerfield scoreboard. Fltz' ball hit
in the centerfield bleachers and
bounced over the fence.
The supply of balls ran out at this
Juncture, and Itube Evans had no am
munition with which to practice with
- his trusty baseball bat. So the argu
ment is right where it was before. "I
etlll think a ballplayer can fungo hit a
golf ball farther tha na golf player
can hit one," said Bill Speas, after
watching the workout.
"You're crazy," retorted Ping Bodie,
Eiff Schaller, et al. of the San Fran
cisco club. "A golfer kin hit that pill
' clear onto that mountain," added "Bodie,
- motioning toward Willamette Heights.
"If I ever hit one of them' things it
would land in the Pacific. But I can't
hit 'em. Once I tried to play a game,
but the holes were all named Lone
Kim, Bathtub, Punch Bowl. Morro Cas
tle and things like that. If they'd been
. called 'Steam Beer," maybe I coulda
done better."
The Wilhelm-Speas argument will be
decided some afternoon this week prior
: to one of the Portland-Oakland
' Bolrees. It will be quite a novelty to
most of the ball fans, who have never

but most of the ball experts dope Salt
Lake to remain in the first division.

week in their final series of the year.

In the play-off, Los Angeles won.
Last year Portland finished first.
Ijos Angeles second. San Francisco
third, Vernon fourth, the present Salt
Lake club fifth, and Oakland sixth.
Portland's fall from first to last has
been the catastrophe of the season. The
Angels remained dormant, while San
Francisco has moved up two pegs, from
third to first, under Wolverton. This
Improvement has been achieved mainly
by the reinforcement of Harry Heil
mann and Ping Bodie, to the corps
of batsmiths. These two heavy hitters
belted in most of the runs up until
Heilmann was forced into seclusion
a few weeks ago by a bad ear.
Big slim Kaufmann, of the Tacoma.
Tigers, has been given an unconditional

OLD GAME FINDS FAVOR
AMERICAN FOOTBALL POPULAR
WITH CALIFORNIA FANS.
Berkeley-Washington Game November
6 Promises to Draw as Great Crowd
as Former Stanford Contest.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 26 The foot
ball game scheduled to be played on
November 6 between the elevens of the
University of Washington and the Uni
versity of California rapidly is taking
on the interest and assuming the pro
portions of the stellar football event
of the season here. Early indications
are that it will prove a worthy substi
tute for the former big game played
between California and Stanford, both
in attendance and enthusiasm.
That the return of the California in
stitution to the American game has
"caught on" with the public is shown
by the official figures of the gate re
ceipts of the first two games of the
season, which, are far In excess of the
amounts taken in during the Rugby
regime.
Tickets for the game against the
northern university already have been
ordered printed to the number of near
ly 25,000, which is the full seating ca
pacity of the California stands. Calls
for reservations have already been re
ceived. California adherents will be
on hand en masse as formerly, while a
big block has been asked held for the
followers of the Washington varsity.
Coach Schaeffer, of California, is sat
isfied with the progress made in the
last two weeks. With six weeks be
fore the big game in which to instruct
his material, he is sanguine that there
will be no comparison of their playing
ability then as compared with the pres
ent time.
The sale to students for the big game
will commence October 6,

at Walla Walla next Saturday after

the Washington Athletic Club, of Se
attle, for Multnomah Field. October 16,
and the following Saturday the T.-f-
homa Athletic Club, of Tacoma,
Wash., will send its moleskin artists
to Portland for a match with the local
club. -
An echo of last Thanksgiving day's
Oregon-Multnomah football game on
Multnomah Field cropped up Saturday
at Eugene when these same elevens
met in a 16-7 duel. In Saturday's game
Captain Rupert and Len Streibig. of
the Winged "Ms" and Bartlett, of
Oregon were ordered off the field by
the officials for rough housing."
Last Thanksgiving the veteran club
men took serious exceptions to some
of the tactics used by Halfback Hunt
ington of the state varsity. Conse
auentlv the vets watched Huntington
carefully at Eugene the other day.
Huntington played clean ball, say the
Multnomah men. until lust near the
close of the game, when he is said to
have pulled some rough work ' on
Streibig. On the next play Captain
Rupert and Streibig watched their op
portunity and when the umpire's head
was turned they dumped an Oregon
man. supposedly Huntington, and then
rolled him around in the mud and
finally sat on him.
Instead of Huntington, however,
they had picked on Bartlett, another
Oretron athlete. Bartlett was consid
erably peeved at the caterwauling he
had received, and he tore into the two
Multnomah huskies. As a result all
three were banished to the sidelines.
Coach Dietz, of Washington State
College, is using the direct pass exclus
ively and Langdon. at center, is be
coming quite an adept at the pass. Dr.
E. J. Stewart, of the Oregon Aggies,
used the direct pass, but the pass is
maae on a siat pivot by the center in
stead of between his legs.
i' lshbacK, an Olympia recruit. Is he
ng tried at guard by Dietz. and Ol
son, of Wenatchee, has replaced Boone
at fullback temporarily.
Another man eligible for the Cali
fornia games has returned to the Uni
versity of Washington.. He is Ernest
Murphy. '17, of Wallace. Idaho. Mur
phy was a substitute end on last year's
crew and will be used as a reserve
end and halfback this Fall. He is a
big fellow, weighing about 190 pounds
and standing about six feet tall. With
Mike Hunt and Ed Leader and Murphy
and Drummond, Washington has ends
galore. ,Dobie is grooming a new man,
Boyle, for the line. Boyle is a heavy
man and a fighter.
Down at Eugene a couple of new
stars began to twinkle and give prom
ise of future brilliance. Monteith and
Malarkey did some clever running with
the ball.
"Monty" should be a comer this year.
as he had last season's experience as
an understudy to Parsons. Two years
ago he was captain of the Albany High
School and played both quarter and full
back, calling signals in both positions.
His only fault was knowing his own
signal too well, but as he was the
"old reliable" at carrying the ball, he
may be excused of that error. With a
little of "Nance" Cornell's system of
engineering instilled into him, Bezdek
need not worry about a competent field
genera in case Captain Cornell gets
injured.
Bob Malarkey seems destined to
continue the work of "Tick," whose in
jured eye in the Idaho game of last
year halted a brilliant career.
Cole, of O. A. C, "came back" Satur
day. You can't keep a good man down,
so Doc's discus heaver must be a good
man, for after illness caused him to
lose out in the recent discus champion
ships at San Francisco, he bounced
back into the calcium glare by winning
the first football game with a place
kick of 42 yards.
He has been tossing weights for ten
years and last Winter broke all col
legiate strength tests by over 300
points. But only a few of his intimate
friends knew until yesterday that he
was possessed of an "educated" toe.
"King" Cole isn't exactly a tender
foot at the game, for before coming to
Oregon he played tackle on the Normal
High School team at Emporia. Kan., and
on one occasion was successful in kick
ing a goal from past the 50-yard line.
Last year Doc pitted him against
"frunes" Moore and gave "Prunes" am
bitiora enough for a position on the
all-star team.
Being the fastest man on the O. A. C.
squad, he may be seen later in a back
field position, where his 200 pounds,
backed by ability-to do 100 In 11 sec
onds consistently, may enable him to

Big Football Center Changes Mind

Brighter are the prospects now for
Dr. E. J. Stewart, coach of the Ore-
on Agricultural College football
team. Pete Anderson, tne Dig center
and defensive guard, of last year's ag
gregation, who announced that he
would not enter school again, has de
cided to help bring a winner to Cor-
vallis this Fall.
Pete has been working all Summer
and at present he is as hard as a
rock. He is heavier this year, tipping
the beam around 180 pounds. Coach
Dr. Stewart may decide to use him at
the other tackle position. Anderson
has been in Portland for some time,
but he will leave immediately for Cor-
vallis to work out with the squad.
CARELESS HUNTERS ARE TABOO
Farmers Near Albany to Allow Only
Those WiUi Permits to Shoot.
ALBANY, Or., Sept. 26. (Special.)
If you don't secure a written permit,
don't try to hunt China pheasants this
year in the vicinity of Knox Butte, east
of 'Albasy. Forty-seven farmers in that
vicinity have banded to prevent hunt
ers coming on their places witnout per
mits.
These men announce that they will
issue permits to responsible hunters,
but to protect their stock and property
from careless hunters they are taking
these precautioss. Not only will the
association see that hunters do riot
come on places of its members, but it
will take steps to see tnat tne law
against shooting from highways is en
forced in that section. j
Centralia High Plans Schedule.
CENT R ALIA, Wash., Sept- 26. (Spe
cial.) The 1915 schedule of the Cen
tralia High School football team was
announced yesterday by C. W. White,
principal of the High School. Two
games will be played with Chehalis,
one at Chehalis on October 27, and one
here Thanksgiving day. Hoquiam will
be played at Hoquiam on November 6,
and Olympia here on November 13.
Before the first game with Chehalis
practice- games will be played with
Elma and Montesano. In its game with
Sumner yesterday, Centralia shows
that it has one of the speediest teams
in the history of the school.

ONE WANTS HIGHEST JOB
Window Cleaners for Xew York Mu
nicipal Building Scarce.
NEW YORK. Sept. 20. It s the high
est job in tne city service and. only
one man wants it. It's the highest
job, and yet to say that ascent Is sure
to be swift and certain involves no
paradox. It requires only ordinary in
tellisrencft and not much of that. Its
possesor is sure to spend much of his
time in the open air ana get nu cim
of exercise. And yet just one man
wants it.
One refers, of course, to tne post or
wlndaw cleaner for the Municipal
building. Many cleaners are needed,
but when the Municipal Civil Service
Commission held an examination re
centiv n sintrle man responded. Al
though a married man, he said he
would take the risk of tumbling from
any of the building's 34 stories. The
city'hired him in a hurry.
As the myriad windows that reflect
the sunrises and sunsets of lower Man
hattan get smeared faster than any
one person can swab them, the Civil
Service Commission appealed for pub
licity. It wanted to know whither
have departed an tne iaie men wno
have figured in tales, of hardship due
to unemployment.
A window cleaner in the Municipal
building gets $600 a year. There have
been no accidents thus far.

IMPERIAL CLTB TO GIVE SHOW
Despite Deficit at Last Smoker. An
other Programme Is Planned.
Although the Imperial Club faced a
deficit after the smoker last Friday
night. King and Jost are busy lining
up another card for a coming show,
the date of which has not yet been
settled.
The crowd that attended the last Im
perial smoker was the smallest in the
club's history, notwithstanding that
Danny O'Brien and Tommy Clark put
up one of the best bouts seen in Fort
land for years. The match was a close
one, and after six rounds Danny re
ceived the decision, which he won by a
small margin.
Danny thinks his younger brother,
Frankie, is destined to make a name
for himself in pugilistic circles. The
younger O'Brien has one of the fastest
left hands seen around Portland for
many a day.
