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 Been a golfball clicked off the tee. With four weeks to go. the Pacific Coast Ijtague race is practically set .;. tied. San Francisco seems to have a ., inch on the pennant, with Los Angeles second, Salt Lake third, Vernon fourth. and Oakland and Portland fighting it out for the subway seats. Vernon may eventually oust Salt Lake from third. but most of the ball experts dope Salt Lake to remain in the first division. The Bees put it all over Vernon last week in their final series of the year. In connection with these remarks it might oe of interest to jot down th complete list of former pennant win ners in the Coast League: 5003 Los Angeles 30 104 Tacoma 3S0 lOUu Tacoma (first series Los Angeles (second series) liU4 irtofl Portland (i-"i ( 31X17 Los Angeles tj(5 !1S i,os Angeles 11MH San Francisco 3 mo Portland ., 3!11 Portland 1SH2 Oakland . 3013 Portland 3.914 Portland . . .B22 . . . oti I . . .uSH . . .6SU . . .ooli . . ,373 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 release by Joe McGinnity at . his own request. He says he will finish the year with the Vernon Tigers. aKuf mann is no scoring squab but he is a consistent fellow and may stick with -Doc" White.

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, if 1 M IP-. - tC f" 7 1! 1 1 - - -s 4 ST BEGIN TO TWINKLE Multnomah Men Report That Bezdek's Team Will Bear Plenty of Watching. RECRUITS SHOW STRENGTH Ensley and Hosklns Play Marvel ous Ball, While Monteitb and Cob Malurkey Promise to Be come Old Reliables. With the scalp of the University of Oregon football team securely fast ened to their belts. Captain "Red" Ru pert and his Multnomah Club gridiron warriors returned to Portland yester day morning from Eugene. Even though his eleven annexed a 16-to-7 victory over the Eugene boys Captain Rupert figures that Oregon will be herd from this season. "It certainly was a freakv eame." said, tne Winged "M" mentor, after he Jumped off the train, "for three touch downs were made In the first three or four minutes of play. First 'Pruney' Francis grabbed the opening kick-off and ran 0 yards for a touchdown, then Oregon kicked off to us again. On the first down we attempted to kick. but the ball was blocked. It rolled across the goal line and an Oregon man fell on the pigskin. They man aged to make the goal kick, but we didn't." Then we took a chance at kick ing off. The ball, after touching one of the Oregon players, rolled across Oregon's goal line and our man fell on it. After making the goal kick that was all the scoring until 'Pruney' Francis made his 35-yard kick from placement. "That , big tackle. Enslev. Is cer tainly some 'find." He weighs around 230 pounds, and the hole he can fill is a monster. If that is the first game Fullback Hoskins ever played the other earns of the conference had bet ter watch out after he develops. Coach Bezdek has a green outfit, they say, but they are a likely looking bunch. Captain Rupert has issued orders that his players be on hand at Mult nomah Field tomorrow night at 7:30 o'clock. Whitman College will be met at Walla Walla next Saturday after noon. Manager Pratt has a game with 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 EW OREGON ARS rival "Hap" Miller, the pride and back bone of "Bull Moose" Dobie's machine. AXDERSOX TO REJOIX AGGIES Big Football Center Changes Mind ant1 Will lie-Enter College. 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. Brief Bits of Sport.

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. $10,464,616 LEFT TO SONS Byram Shore Man Leaves Large Es tate in Xew York. NEW YORK. Sept. 20.

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. ST.
