The crowd which tsaw the game was the largest which has attended a football game this year. The game was marked throughout by serious accidents. In the first quarter, before a full minute of play had elapsed. "Pinky" Wright, Lincoln's quarterback and captain, sustained a concussion of the brain which at first was thought to be extremely serious. Leach, substitute for Wright, in the next quarter suffered a shoulder dis location in a scrimmage. Oscar Hel mer. Lincoln's right guard, received a broken arm in the third quarter. The Xatlonal Hospital Association, which insures the players, sent Leach and Helmet to St. Vincent's Hospital. Wright was sent to his home. Sanders and Larimore, of Lincoln, sustained wrenched knees, which will put them out of the game for several weeks. Despite this record of accidents, Lin coln held Jefferson 00 to 00 at the end of the first quarter. In the second quarter. Coach Jamieson's boys began to hit their stride, however, and Wllle ford, recovering the ball and making a lean get-away, ran 50 yards down the field and scored a touchdown. Thomp son kicked goal. The third quarter was hard-fought, but Lincoln's crippled condition soon told and Jefferson scored another touchdown. Roger Plummer carried the ball across the line. Thomp son fizzled the goal kick. Lincoln Rallies Toward Last. At the start of the final quarter, Plummer again carried the ball across the line for the final touchdown, and Thompson kicked goal. From then on Lincoln seemed to revive and, forcing the ball back from within one yard of their own goal, pushed the Jefferson eleven back to the 20-yard line, where . . n lait ap 1 1 1 o m r t r lrlnlf a fl e 1 rl goal. This attempt failed and Lincoln, taking heart, outplayed Jefferson for the rest of the game. " Howard, Jefferson's left end, was the star of the game. He made six clean tackles at vital times and received 3nuch applause for his good work. Plum mer, Thompson and Willeford were the yardage makers. Plummer, last year's all-star tackle, is going to make a hard -tight for -All-star, -ullbaek this year. Jefferson played a very rouf h game. Tuerck starred for Lincoln. Many etner ursv team men were ropoea 01 their chances to show what they could .do by being 'put out. of the game through injuries. Helmer, Sanders and Larjmore all played brilliantly before "being put" out of -the fray. Shay made Lincoln's left end invincible. Rooting la Feature, Nearly as big a battle was waged between the rooters in the grandstand as was fought between the teams on the field. Jefferson had about 800 stu dents in its section of the stands, while Lincoln turned out about 600. Crowds of outsiders also witnessed the game. Jefferson managed to make more noise than the West Siders, but the latter soon decided rthat this would never do, FO Dorothy Reed and Mary Holmes, two ..dainty Lincoln misses, came down in front of- the stands -and led the Lln colnlans in singing a rollicking school song to the tune of "Where Do We Go rom Here, Boys 7 The lineup . .

Another policeman was stationed on the field yesterday, presumably to keep specta ors off the field-lines, but, like his prede cessors, he disappeared ' w hen most needed. As a result. Referee Ftubling had to blow his whistle for "time out" while the offi cials backed the crowd away from the field, where they were interfering with the timekeepers and stickmen. This happens at every game, and is a constant source of an noyance to officials and players.

A freshman eleven that will show the way to the varsity is the condition that is in prospect on the university campus, where more than 30 of the first-year men are on the field. Coach" Hunt de clares that conditions look less hope ful than at any time he has coached football, and says that it is the men In college who are not turning out who are responsible. One silver glint developed in the cloud today when big Ernest Murphy, wizard back of the last two years, reg istered in college. While Murphy did not appear on the field, he will turn out this week and with him Hunt will have a forward pass man who will be hard to surpass anywhere. Van de Bo gard, a former varsity lineman, also will return to the team. VETERANS WILL UMPIRE ARBITERS FOR WORLD'S SERIES ARE EXPERIENCED. Klein. Rlerler, O'Louehlln and Evans All Of f tela I Who Have Acted. In Past Blt Clashes. The umpires appointed for the world series of 1917 are William J. Klem and Charles Rleler, National League and Frank O'Loughlin and William G Evans, American League. All of these have had considerable experience as arbiters of play in the world's Cham pionship contests. Xlem's frrst experience In the big ""-aseball feature was in 1908, and since that time only two world'H flags have been won, without his having been connected with the games in his offi cial capacity. The exceptions were the battles of 1910 and last year. O'Loughlin ante-dates Klem In world series hir.tory as he was one of the umpires in the Chicago series of 1906. He officiated again in the 1909 series between Pittsburg: and Detroit. Then in 1912 and 1915 he was active and the coming contest will mark his fifth ap pearance in the world series. Rigler also will officiate for the fifth time in a world's championship struggle. In 1910 with Connolly, O'Day and Sheridan, he umpired the series between the Athletics and Chicago Na tionals. In 1913 ha was appointed for the New York-Philadelphia series. while in 1912 and again in 1915, he and the other three umpires who are offi ciating this year worked together. Evans had his initial experience as a world series arbiter In 1909, when he worked with Johnstone, Klem and Evans, in the Pittsburg-Detroit series. Then again In 1912 and 1915 he and his partners of this year made up the umpiring staff, which has been reap pointed, for a third term. BOXING CARD ADVANCED NEWMAN STILL ABSENT COACH PIPAL WORRIED FOR FEAR STAR WILL 'OT RETIRX. Football Practice Is Under Way, but Only Few Veterans Have Appeared for Practice. ' OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, Corvallis. Or.. Oct. 3. (Special.) "Dark Horse" Newman failed to make his ap pearance on the field today. Newman was expected to be back today, and his absence is a source of much un easiness to Coach Plpal. With only a few men out each night, the captain still away and the first game 10 days distant. Coach Pipal is a much worried man. Ten men reported in suits for foot ball practice yesterday. Many of the faces are new ones, although several have played on class teams or were substitutes last year. It Is expected that many of the seniors will turn out this year in 'an attempt to earn' their letter. Johnson and Boardman, two sopho mores, are new. additions.. Johnson has a very neat pass, and Boardman is a husky appearing youngster who may be developed into a lineman. Girley and Grafton will probably be heard from before the close of the season. Lodell, who averaged 64 yards on his punts in the Whitman game last year, has appeared on the field. Lodell's drop kicks and Cole's place kicks will be depended on this year. Both men are In the best of form. In a few days, as soon as the men become hardened, .light scrimmage practice will be given them, and everything should be in full swing by the end of the week. BEZOEK ARRIVES IN CITY COACH GOES TO EUGENE TO BE GIN FOOTBALL INSTRUCTION. Carson Big-bee, of Pirates, Also Is Back, With Prediction That the ' Glanta Will Beat Sox. Hugo Bezdek, the University of Ore gon football coach, who managed the Pittsburg National League baseball club part of this season, was in Port land yesterday for 15 minutes. TJie chunky football mentor lost no time in getting to Eugene, where he looked his football material over yes terday afternoon on Kincaid field. Bezdek was accompanied by Carson Bigbee, Pittsburg- outfielder and ex University of Oregon baseball and basketball star, who will remain in Portland a -few weeks before going to his home in Albany. "I did not hit as well as I would like to." said Bigbee, at the Imperial Hotel last night. "I am not offering any ex cuses for my .240 batting average, but I think I should have done bettor. "The Pittsburg club looked 100 per cent better after Bezdek got things running the way he wanted them. We have a young-man club and the last two months of the season we had all the clubs hustling -to beat us. The 22 lnning game we played with Brooklyn was the prizewinner. I waa up 11 times and got six hits." When asked who he liked , In the world series Bigbee said he thought the Gianta would win. Phone your want, ads to The Oreffo njan. Ham 7070, A 60? 5. Date for Pacific Athletic Club Show Originally Set for October 12 Is Changed to October 16. Bouts Are Approved. One boxing manager and three box ers were suspended from further ac tivities in Portland by the Portland Boxing Commission at its second meet ing - last night. Those .barred were Frank Orsattl, self-styled manager for Jimmy Dundee; Ed Olson and Abo Brown, two local boxers, and Lonnle Mcintosh, of Seattle. Olson agreed to appear at the Rose City School of Boxing card the other night, but failed to appear. He gave no notice nor offered any excuse. Abe Brown is accused of "laying down" to Ray Leonard in the second round of their bout. Referee "Denver" Ed Mar tin made the accusation. Lonnie Mc intosh avoided a match with Alex Trambltas. using a fishing trip as an exeuse, which sounded "fishy" to the commissioners. Statements May Be Blade. Those suspended will have the chance to answer to the charges causing their suspension and. are req uested' -to send In a written statement giving their rea sons for not appearing or prove that the charges made against them are not true. If they can prove things to the satisfaction of the Commisson' the ban may be lfted. Jimmy Dundee was exonerated of any charges and will be allowed to show here. Orsatti, who represented himself as his manager, had- nothlns to do with him and did not notify him until two day before the fight was supposed to come off, Dundee was in Oakland at the time. The Commission changed the date ot the Pacific Athletic Club card from Oc tober 12 to Tuesday night. October 16. at the request of Bobby livans. match-' maker of the club. Frank 10. Watkins, charman of the Commission in discus sing the change, said that as the Grand K'xalted Ruler of the Klks would be here Friday night and also as it is Co--lumbus day, a, holiday, a large number of persons- who would want to see the bouts- would not be able to .tro, and in justice to Mr. Evans and the Pacific Athletic Club the Commission voted to advance the date to October 16. Two Apply for Permits. Two new applications for permits to stage boxing shows were brought up and put on file to be passed on at the next meeting of the body. Edward J. O'Connell and Mike Butler were the applicants for permits. They will probably be granted at the meeting next week.

LITTLE HOPE SEEX BY BEZDEK Oregon Coach Says That Prospects for Football Are Bark. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene! Oct. .(. (Special.) Football really took its place in the limelight at the ttni verslty today, following th e arrival of Coach Bezdek. Tired from his four day trip across the continent. Bezdek. who has been managing the Pittsburg Pirates since the close of school last June, stepped off from the train at noon and at 4 o'clock viewed the candidates for this season's football team on Kincaid Field. "The prospects of a winning team this year look darker to me than at the opening of any season since I have been connected with ' the university," said Bezdek. after putting the squad through light work for an hour. "Aside from Steers. I am not sure of having one man of any experience around which to develop a team." Forty men turned out for the first practice under the coach, who last year turned out the coast champion eleven. Most of the faces were strange. Bas Williams, although enrolled, has not yet appeared in uniform. Until it is decided whether or not a coach for the freshman, squad is to be engaged this. year, the first year men will be worked with the varsity. About 15 freshmen turned out today. Bezdek faces the task of rounding a team into shape in ten days for a same with ilultnomali here, October 13. Ice Cream Cone "Once Vjumblc, mow exalted" A woman motorist coined the phrase. "We used to think an Ice Cream Cone was a tidbit for children until someone banteringly tried it on one of our motor trips! Now we regularly buy a round of Cones and drive on munching in happiness. It's a thing of joy, clear down to the sweet crisp nub and filled with '1 it's the most refreshing thing there is." Look for our sign in the stores.

Pheasanta Are Reported - Plentiful and It la Estimated That 300 Sports men Are A field. Apparently the many hunters who bagged tho limit of pheasants on Mon day and Tuesday, the first days of the open season, did not greatly deplete the number of birds around the city, for all day yesterday local sportsmen returned to town with many birds. Most of the hunters have gon for trips ranging from two days to a week. The "single-day" men either turned out Monday or are planning to shoot during the week-end Carl Long returned to town y ester-: day after having bagged the limit on two successive days. He got his birds near Aurora, where he reports pheas ants are plentiful. Archie Farrott, of the Honeyman Hardware Company, and Police Cap tain Circle returned Tuesday from a point north of the city, each with the limit of birds. Artolph Wolem got two birds in a morning's shooting close to the city. Richard Carney, of the Hibernia Bank, bagged the limit Tuesday near Gaston. It Is safe to estimate that there are 300 sportsmen now in the woods. Word has been received from H. W. Nichols, of 411 Hassalo street, as to the pheasant situation near Corvallis. Mr. Nichols, who is hunting with Al- rrd Hull and Frank St. John, writes: "The hirdu are not very plentiful: how ever, we obtained the limit today, but only after covering miles of territory. "The hens seem to be In the major ity. The largest percentage of cocks a-e old setters. Birds are nearly all full grown. '"The fields are so dry that the doss caiinot work to good advantage."
