Before almost 2000 spectators the
Lincoln High School football eleven
yesterday was defeated by Jefferson
by a score of 20 to 0. 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,

..dainty Lincoln misses, came down in

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.

WASHINGTON GRID IS CLOOJIV
Coach Hunt Apparently Sees Little
Hope of Winning Games.
SEATTLE. Wash., Oct. 3. (Special.)
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.

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

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

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

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

Athletic Club the Commission voted to
advance the date to October 16.

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. Accommodating

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
