Jefferson High School well-nigh eliminated Lincoln High from the 1915 interscholaetic football race yesterday in a sensational game, which encLed 6-0, according: to Referee Francis, but which in reality was 3-0. Different interpretations over an alleged safety constituted the debated two-points. At the time neither coach found any fault withtiie decision, but later , Referee Francis discovered his error and notified the newspapers. The play In question occurred in th second period, when Lincoln attempted to punt from behind Its own goa.1 lino. The ball hit a Lincoln player and caromed on out into the field of play, "where It was recovered by a Jefferson athlete. Referee Francis called, it a safety because of its having hit a Lin coln player first behind the goal line. The rules, however, give immunity to offside players behind the goal lines, and no safety could be called, unless the tall remained behind the goal line. In any event, the ball was given Lin coln on the 20-yard line, and Lincoln fumbled. After vainly trying to punc ture the Lincoln line for appreciable alns. Captain Moe Sax stepped back and booted a placement from the 16 yard line. Big Crowd Sees Game, Considerable wrangling enlivened the engagement, which was played, on Multnomah Field under a sunny sky and with 1877 fans, actual count, in the grandstand. This is the largest crowd to see the preparatory athletes in action this year. Both teams entered the Jnclosure at 3:15 o'clock, and when Captain Groce. of Lincoln, brought his teammates out It was seen that he was angry about something. After a consultation in the middle of the field. Referee Francis announced that the Lincoln team would not play because one of its players was under protest. Jefferson High Is said to liave protested Tommy Richardson on the grounds that he was not registered at the West Side institution for one year. His teammates, led by Captain Groce, refused to go on unless that protest was removed, as they had put in a protest against "Ike" Wolfer, of Jefferson. -ame Kin tubed Under Arc Lights. Referee Francis gave the Lincoln ites two minutes to get ready for play, but it was exactly two minutes past 4 before the kickoff was made. Final ly, after half the crowd had surged on the field. Captain Groce yielded and played with Tommy under protest. Coach Borleske, of Lincoln, did not have anything to say, nor did Coach Jamison, of Jefferson. Both tried to smooth things over. Before the game finally ended Super intendent Dow V. Walker, of the Mult nomah Amateur Athletic Club, was re quired to turn the electric lights on in the spacious grandstand. Had it been a dark and rainy day there is no telling how the contest would have ended, as it was getting dark and al most impossible to distinguish one player from the other. The rooting was far superior to any thins yet heard this year. During the threo-quarters of an hour wait previous to the start of the fracas Yell Leader Kenln, of Jefferson, and Yell Director Knudson, of Lincoln, entertained those present. Ijincoln Makes Many Changes. Not one change was made in the Jefferson High lineup by Coach Homer Jamison, while Coach Borleske made seven substitutions. Captain Sax, Wol fer, Curry and Wilcox featured for the Jefferson team, while Drickell, Morri son, Pret Holt. Lynn Oliver and Tommy Richardson loomed up for the Lincoln Oliver and Richardson pulled off some sensational forward passing and when time was called to end the game the West Siders had the ball on Jeffer eon's -4-yard line and Jhey were going stronger every minute. For the most part, the Jefferson team outplayed the losers, but they lacked the punch to put across a touchdown. Coach Bor leske started three of his players who had been injured recently and many gave this as the reason for such a poor showing. The lineup and summary: l.incoin CO).

Dietz, Idol of Washington State Col lege, Outlines Flans for Future. Monster Demonstration Stirs Whole Population. WASHINGTON STATE COLLEGE. Pullman. Oct. 20. (Special.) The re ception griven the crimson and gray warriors Monday after their return from a thorough drubbing given the Oregon Aggies was the most complete aiid largest ever accorded a victorious state college team. It was a fitting tribute to the men who overwhelmed Oregon on the home held: when the dope was all against hem, with only the best kind of a fighting spirit to goad them on, but who a week later, with the same odds and more, sent down to defeat the strongest team that Oregon Agricul tural has boasted in years. As early as the night of the departure of the team the arrangements for a receptioik were under way. The team was met by the entire student body, and by the majority of the towns people. Yellinc Students Greet Team. The team was marched through an aisle of yelling students to an old wagon, once the property of President Bryan, o the college, the motive power of which was furnished by several scores pulling on a 200-foot rope. Coach Oietz and Physical Director Ioc Bohler were honored with a place at the head of the parade in, a splen didly decorated float, also pulled by a detachment of students. The parade, after passing through the principal business section of Pullman, ended at the auditorium building on the campus. Here the big demonstration of the morning took place: speeches by Coach Dietz, Doc Bohler, the team and prom inent members of the faculty and stu dent body were given: college songs were sung and yells given and it was not until every throat had been torn to ribbons and all available fireworks and noise producers had been touched off that the celebration ceased. OvercoBfldenee Warning Given. Coach Dietz in a short speech warned against overconhdence. He remarked that to "be beaten now by one of the smaller teams in the conference after having successfully met the two strongest would be the worst kind of defeat." The attentions of- the coachine: staff will now center on a system of defense and attack for the Idaho game, at Mos cow. This game being two weeks off will therefore give the coach and team sufficient time to work out an eneirely new system or play. An entirely new set of plays will be given the team in order to avoid a re-occurrence of the thing which happened last year, when it was learned that Idaho had pre pared a stiff offense to meet every Washington State College attack. Alameda Girl Vitt's Bride. SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 20. (Spe cial.) Miss Irene Freund, of Oakland, became the wife of Oscar Vitt, thiro. baseman of the Detroit Tigers and rated one of the best infielders in the American League, tonight. The wed ding of the Alameda County belle" to the San Francisco ballplayer who has made so pronounced a success of his major league career took place at 7 o'clock at St. Mathews' Lutheran Church. Only members of the two fam ilies were present at the ceremony and attended the wedding dinner that was served later at a downtown cafe. The happy couple left late in the evening on a trip,-but held the desti nation a ' secret. They expect to be away a week or 10- days and will pass tna .winter in San irancisco..

AGGIE INTEREST SOARS SIX TEAMS ARE HARD AT WORK ON CORVALLIS GRIDIRON. Shifts Being; Made on College Team to Strengthen Line- Lively Scrlm nucu Are Held. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, Corvallis. Oct. 20. (Special.) Football interest is at high tide on the Oregon Agricultural College campus. Last night six teams were hard at work upon the athletic field. The varsity and second team were engaged in a lively scrimmage session, and four class teams were rounding into condition for the interclass series Which will begin Friday afternoon. Greatest interest is centered in the varsity, which is being reorganized in final preparation for the Michigan trip. Eighteen men, accompanied by Coach Stewart, will leave for the East Sunday, and the four remaining prac tice sessions will be filled with the most strenuous kind of work. Bruises, strains and stiffness resulting from. the hard Washington State College game Saturday had largely disappeared when the athletes reported for practice this afternoon, and two teams were sent through an hour of scrimmage. Many changes were made-in the varsity front, the most marked being the playing of Smyth and Billie at end. Smyth was also played at guard and tackle as the director of strategy searched for the strongest combination in the line. Yeager or Anderson may be found at center when the team lines up for the intersectional game at East Lansing. Teager is the surest man for the safety role which Stewart has in his squad and he is also a sure ground gainer in running back punts through a broken field. Oaks Seek "Rudy" Kallio. "Rudy" Kallio has 'received an offer of a position on the Oakland twirling corps next season. "Rudy" is a grad uate of the Portland sandlots. tie played last season in the Rio Grande Association until the league went flooey and then returned home.

San Francisco won the title to the 1915 pennant of the Pacific Coast League today wren the Seals won from Oait- and. 9 to 4. The Seals drove home 3 runs in the first inning and led all tne way. for the first time since ihe con clusion of the baseball season of 1909 when Manager Danny Long led the San francisco club to the championship. the pennant of the Pacific Coast. League will float over the headquar ters of Recreation Park. Today's victory placed San Francisco so superlatively at the head of the percentage column that should Los Angeles and Salt Lake, the runners-up, win all their remaining games, and hould the Seals lose through the rest of the season, the coveted bunt ng could not be snatched from their clasp. Second Place Still In Dispute. Second place still is in dispute and probably will be until the last series has been fought out. Vernon has tight grasp upon the leadership of the second division, with Oakland in fifth position and Portland, last years champions, a dismal last. The race has been an exciting one this year, although early in the Spring wise dopesters picked San Francisco and Los Angeles as the contenders. To add spice as well as variety. Salt Lake surprised magnates and fans by start ing with an early season rush, a mid season slump which carried the Bees to the cellar, and a fine closing rally which kept the heirs to the deceased Sacramento franchise well within striking distance until today. Seals Play Is Consistent. San Francisco played consistent ball all season and is generally termed the class of the league. Los Angeles caught and passed the front running Seals on August 7 and soon acquired a lead. of four full games. Wolverton's men. however, regained the lost ground In short, order, resuming their place at the head of the list early in Septem ber.- They have not been headed since, Los - Angeles suffered terribly through accidents this year. Out fielder Harry Wolter, one of the club's mainstays, has been out of the frame for many weeks, and Maggert, Terry and McMullen, other dependables, have been able to play only sporadically. V ernon started with pennant aspira tions, and was well up until the death of Manager Wallace Bray, known and loved by the baseball world as "Happy Hogan. on May 17. For several weeks the Vernonltes played in listless fash ion, falling into the cellar position. To ward the close of the season, however, they rallied and resumed the fast stride of the opening weeks. Rallies Show Seals' Mettle. Heavy, timely hitting and bulldog determination coupled with the early rounding into form of the pitching forces, are the factors which critics say brought the bacon home for the Seals. Enough contests, seemingly lost, were won this season by splendid ninth-inning rallies to have lost the pennant to them had the rallies not been forthcoming. To Jack Ness, Oakland s first base man, goes the stellar performance of the year. On July 14 he passed Ty Cobb's world record of hitting safely in 40 consecutive games, and later he set a new mark of 50 straight for other baiters to shoot at. Financially, Salt Lake and San Fran Cisco have been the only teams to show profits. The managers are not com plaining, however, according to Presi dent A. L. Baum, who considers patron age satisfactory In view of the opposi tion offered by the Panama-Pacific Exposition.
