OREGON-WINGED "M"
BATTLE TO BE HOT
Remodeled Club Eleven Is Ex
pected to Give Varsity
Boys Real Surprise.
GAME BEGINS AT 2 O'CLOCK
TTard Training and Daily Practice
of Last few Weeks 'With Addi
tion of Stars to Team Makes
Multnomah Dangerous.
Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club
will send its remodeled, revised, reha
bilitated and rejuvenated football ag
gregation against the University of
Oregon eleven on Multnomah Field to
morrow afternoon at 2 o'clock in the
annual Thanksgiving day gridiron bat
tle. Superintendent Dow V. Walker
announced last night that the game
positively would start at 2 o'clock, eo
that it would be completed in time for
the fans to attend their "turkey din
ners at home and on time."
Coach Hugo Bezdek and his Oregon
champions are due in Portland today,
according to advance notices, and ef
forts are being made to have them the
guests of the "Winged "M" institution
at the inter-club boxing and wrestling
tournament between Seattle and Port
land tonight in the club gymnasium.
Clubmen Practice Hard.
The clubmen went out for the last
Tiard practice last night and it was
some workout. All the athletes have
been imbued with an intense fighting
spirit and the eleven as it now stands
"is one of the fastest and scrappiest
elevens that ever represented Multno
mah," says the Winged "M" Bulletin,
the official organ of the club.
Coach "Spec" Hurlburt gave his play
ers a thorough talking to last night
and. with the aid of Dr. Leslie Clough,
Manager James O. Convill. Superintend
ent Dow V. Walker. Martin Pratt, Fred
Knibbs and several others, the boys
went to the bhower baths with the
"Get Oregon" lodged fast in their
minds.
The 28-to-0 sting of early in the
season is still felt by the Portlanders,
and this must be wiped out tomorrow
afternoon before a Portland audience.
Captain Len Streibig had the men
working overtime last night and not
one "peep" against it was heard from
those vitally interested. Two full teams
and four more were out on the sawdust-covered
field for the practice.
Multnomah Mopea for Rcvnge.
The players will meet in the club
gymnasium tonight at 7 o'clock to go
through a light workout, mostly of
signals. Those who attended the 27-to-0
defeat of the Oregon Aggies at the
hands of the University of Oregon at
t'orvallis. Or., last Saturday came back
with the idea that a great game can
be expected on Multnomah Field
Thanksgiving day.
Last Turkey day the Collegians
sprang a surprise by handing the Car
dinal and White a 15-to-2 setback, but
since then the Multnomah team has
oeen remoaeiea. jsut inree or lour or
last season's players are present this
campaign. Special rooting sections
have been set aside for followers of
both teams, and the advance sale of
seats predicts that a record crowd will
attend. The seat sale opened yester
day at the A. O. Spalding & Bros. new
store, Broadway at Alder street.
The Eugene lads will be strengthened
by the addition of Johnny Parsons at
his old position in the backfield. He
was declared ineligible to compete
asainst the Aggies last Saturday and
Captain Johnny Beckett went to the
backfield. Cap will now go to his old
position on the line and. as a result,
the team will hardly miss the services
of Brick Mitchell, who was injured in
the Aggie game.

ED MA1ER MAY BOO UP
COAST 31 AGNATES DIBIOIS ABOUT
DHFOSED OWNER'S STATUS.
Salt Lake Session Promises Lively
Argument on Player and Salary
Limit Questions.
SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 2S. (Spe
cial.) Coast Leaguers are approach
ing the coming annual meeting in Salt
Lake, which is to open next Tuesday,
with more unsettled problems than in
many a long day. '
Last year the local baseball people
were far more concerned over the
handling of their guests at the time
of the National Association of Minor
Leaguers than they were with their
own affairs. Before that matters ran
along on a fairly even keel.
Tne fly in the ointment is that no
one knows just where Ed Maier stands
and whether at the last moment he is
goin, to make a": plea for recognition.
In spite of the fact that Messrs. Pow-"
ers. Berry et al. read the Los Angeles
brewer out of the party in the middle
of the 1916 season, he is still the
majority stockholder in the' Vernon
club.
He might, if he should take a mind,
put in an appearance at Salt Lake and
demand representation on the plea that
taxation without representation is un
lawful. But even assuming that Maier sticks
at home, there are problems of state
to be considered.
Berry," for example, thinks the ques
tion of salary limit is one that should
not be brought up for public discus
sion. Hen would settle that financial
matter in executive session and keep
it a deep, dark secret.
But Judge McCredie, of Portland, for
instance, is not quite so close-mouthed
as Berry when it comes to talking of
the financial end of the sport.
He has already indicated that he
wants the limit cut lower, and there is
bound to be a fight on that score.
-Then, again, club managers are not
likely to take in kindly spirit to
Kwing's .scheme of keeping the player
limit at 18 men and requirin-g four to
bo youngsters.
Eugene to Play Roseburg.
EUGENE, Or.. Nov. 28. (Special.)
The Eugene and Roseburg High School
football teams will meet on Kincaid

The classiest amateur boxing and
wrestling card which has been pre
sented in Portland in the last two
years w-ill be staged tonight in the
Multnomah Amateur Athletfc Club
gymnasium at 8:30 o'clock. Eleven bouts
are on the bill, four wreetling and
seven boxing. Five of them are inter
club affairs.
This will mark -the second inter-club
meet of the season. Both of them
have been with the Seattle Athletic
Club, the Winged "M" warriors having
Journeyed to the Sound City two weeks
ago, trouncing the Northerners three
bouts to one. Seattle is out for re
venge tonight. Its boys will arrive
here this morning.
Orrin Gager. Seattle, who meets Ralph
Underwood 125 pounds, is one of the
best pupils of Pat Scott, Seattle in
structor. In Underwood he will meet
a veteran who knows how to box and
fight. Ralph is the 115-pound Pacific
Coast amateur champion, and will be
giving away weight to Gager. Pat
Scott is sending his brother Claude to
do battle with Harry Hansen. Hansen
will be remembered as the Swedish chap
who used to perform creditably for the
Armory Athletic Club. Harry is a
brother to George Hansen, the middle
weight grappler.
It is rumored around town that Joe
Conners, the 180-pounder coming to
represent Seattle, is a "dark horse." It
is said that he has been knocking out
big sparring partners in the Seattle
boxing and wrestling room. However,
Tom Louttit. the versatile club athlete,
knocked down Bill Pearce twice at Se
attle in the last meet, so, therefore,
carries a k. o. w-allop himself.
Lloyd Wray and Walter Taylor com
prise the class of the Seattle wrestlers,
outside of Oliver Runchey. Wray
meets Hansen again. The "Terrible
Swede" took two straight falls from
Wray at the last meet and Instructor
Eddie J. O'Connell expects him to re
peat on his home mat.
The preliminaries, featuring the re
turn of "Old-Man" Dick Hewitt at I0
pounds, round out a card which should
pack the Winged "M" gymnasium.
One of the reasons for having the
bouts tonight .is to bring out all of
the club rooters for the big Turkey
day game tomorrow with the Univer
sity of Oregon footballers.
Instructors Pat Scott and Chet Mc
Intyre are expected to accompany the
Seattle lads.

WATER POLO GAMES EXCITING
Winged "M" House League Tank Con
tests Hard Fought.
The most sensational water -polo
game ever played In the Multnomah
Amateur Athletic Club swimming tank,
according to followers of the Winged
"M" house league, was staged Monday
night when the Submarines and the
Water Babies played a 2-to-2 tie. The
first game of the double-header re
sulted in a 4-to-3 victory for the
Dreadnoughts over the Hungry Sharks.
Referee Jack Cody was forced to
put McHale out of the game in the
Water Babies-Submarines affair be
cause of a foul. Clark scored the two
goals for the Water Babies in the
first half, while Webster and McHale
each registered a point in the last half
for the Submarines. The whistle blew
to end the game Just as the last goal
was attempted, but because the play
had already started when the whistle
blew the tieing point was allowed.
The Submarines and the Dread
noughts were scheduled to play tonight
in the club tank, but the match has
been postponed because of the inter
club boxing and wrestling smoker in
the club gymnasium between Seattle
and Multnomah Club. It will be played

Is Suspended for Jumping to
Septet In Eastern League.
VANCOUVER, B. C, Nov. 28. (Spe
cial.) Hugh Lehman, considered to be
one of the greatest hotkey goalkeepers
In the world, arrived in town yesterday
and will turn out for practice with the
Millionaires at the arena. Lehman ap
peared to be in fine shape and the long
journey across the continent from
Kitchener. Ontario, did not seem to
have left any effect on him. The Mil
lionaires' hockey team Is now complete
but for the right wing man, Barney
Stanley, who is reported to have left
Edmonton for the Coast Saturday.
President Frank Patrick, of the Pa
cific Coast Hockey Association, received
official word Saturday from Manager
Kd Savage, of Portland, that Eddie
Oatman. of the Rosebuds, who recently
joined the r228th Battalion team in the
N. H. A., has been suspended. This
means that until the N. H. A. team
makes arrangements with Mr. Savage,
either paying a price for Mr. Oatman
or making a deal in substituting some
other player. Eddie Oatman will not
be able to play with the N. H. A. team.
Should the battalion team play Oat
man. the National Hockey Association
would be further violating the agree
ment between it and the P. C. H. A.
and the case would go for decision to
William Foran, of Ottawa, the official
arbitrator of all differences between
the two bodies. The matter rests at
present.
Indications point towards a big crowd
on Saturday night next at the local
arena, when the Millionaires battle
with Seattle in the first game of the
season in this city. Manager Frank
Patrick has made arrangements by
which a special section of the balcony
will be turned over to the returned
soldiers. The boys who have been to
the front will be the guests of the
arena that night and will be in com
mand of Colonel Markham.

of the 1916-17 season will be played.
The decision will be made at the end
of the season and the official scorers In
Spokane, Portland. Seattle and Van
couver, B. C, will render the decision.
The competition will be along lines
similar to those followed by the major
baseball leagues a couple of years ago
when automobiles were the prizes of
fered.
One hundred points will be the max
imum, and the players will be judged
for their judgment, stamina, clean
playing, popularity with team mates,
scoring ability, etc. By so doing con
siderable Interest will be stirred up
around the circuit. Vancouver has its
"Cyclone" Taylor, who will demand at
tentlon; Portland has "Moose" John
son to rely on; Seattle will look to Jack
Walker and Eddie Carpenter, while
none other than Lester Patrick will be
the Spokane man to watch. This does
not mean that any of this aggregation
may be selected, as there are several
other players on all the septets who
will be in the running at the conclu
sion of the campaign.

Street Garments.
LOS ANGELES. Cal.. Nov. 28. (Spe
cial.) A street clothes workout was
the best that Joe Pinal's eminent rep
resentatives of the "bark-to-the-land"
movement could get today on their ar
rival from Corvallis for the game with
the University of Southern California.
A soulless railway octopus lost the
trunks containing the Oregon Aggie
uniforms and when the embryo plow
pursuers reached Tournament Park In
Pasadena today they were forced to
practice in their Sunday clothes or not
at all.
Rather than sacrifice their gorgeous
sartorial creations the farmers shed as
much of them as the law allows and
proceeded to work out In their shirt
sleeves. One lap up and down the field was
sufficient cause for the removal of
collars and neckwear. Before the sec
ond lap was well under way Bev An
derson's shirt tail was flapping brazen
ly in the breeze and by the time two
trips were over the athletes called a
halt and removed Just about every
thing above the waist.
