Franklin High School won its third
Btraig-ht football grame yesterday by
defeating Lincoln High School. 14 to 0,
and wrested first place in the league
Irom Columbia University.
Fifteen hundred partisans of the
rival schools sat in the stands and
cheered themselves hoarse. It was the
first time this year that Franklin had
an opportunity to meet an opponent
worthy of its steel, and the East Siders
acquitted themselves with credit.
Two Period See Scoring;.
Franklin scored a touchdown - and
kicked goal in both the first and se
ond periods. Lincoln came back in the
last half, however, and kept the play
in the middle or the field.
Krown, rranKlm s quarterback, car
ried the ball across Lincoln's goal in
the first period, after a short pass,
line-smash and an end run had brought
the play to the Cardinal-and-White's

On the third down Wolfe, of Lincoln

tne Dan up to Lincoln s goal, and Bar
bur carried it across for a touchdown.

scoring for the game.

The third quarter was nip-and-tuck
playing, with Lincoln having a slight
edge. Wright made the one feature
play of the game. Seeing a hole in the
Franklin line, he carried the ball for
-0 yards before being brought down
oy tne jvranKlln backfield.
in the rinal quarter Lincoln resorted
to forward passing. Franklin proved
ciever at blocking the passes, however,
anu oniy one. vvrignt to Kaufman, was
completed. It gained 20 yards. The
last period was played in the center of
tne iield.
Wright, Sanders and Monroe played
the best game for Lincoln. Badley and
Thompson starred for Franklin, the
latter doing some exceptional punting.

JUDGE EXPLAINS
HOLLOGHER DEAL
Misunderstanding Cleared Up
and Bezdek Is Convinced He
Wasn't 'Double-Crossed
MENTOR EMULATES DOBIE
Gridiron Czar Has Nothing to Say
About Coming Clash of Eugene
and Pullman Ward's Work
Praised by His Manager.
BV JAMES J. RICHARDSON.
Hugo Bezdek, erstwhile manager of
the Pittsburg- Pirates and now com
mander-in-chief of the University of
Oregon football destinies, trundled into
Portland yesterday afternoon in ad
vuuue oi me uregon gridiron war
riors, who arrived last night on their
way to Pullman. Wash., for their first
intercollegiate football contest of the
1917 season with Washington State
College.
The rotund mentor had little to say
regarding Oregon's chances with Dietz'
crew, nut lingered long enough to make
Known the fact that there was a deep
breach existing between the Pittsburg
National League and the Portland base
ball clubs which Bezdek smeared with
soothing syrup yesterday after a half
hours confab with the congenial and
portly president of the Portland
Beavers.
Holloeher Nell's Pick.
It all happened over the Holloeher
deal with the Chicago National League
Club. Pittsburg was anxious to secure
Holloeher and it was all a misunder
standing that the little Beaver short
patcher did not go to the Pirates.
President Dreyfuss. Scout Billy Neil
and Bezdek himself were laboring
under the delusion that the McCredies
"double crossed" them on Holloeher,
but after a brief explanation of the
entire transaction by the smooth
tongued Judge McCredie, Bezdek made
his exit satisfied that future relations
between Portland and Pittsburg would
not be of a strained nature.
Says Bezdek: "When Scout Billy Neil
said that we were to receive the pick
of the Portland baseball club we felt
sure we would get Charlie Holloeher.
That was the impression Owner Drey
fuss, Neil and myself had until we
heard Holloeher was sold to Chicago.
We simply could not believe it after
what Nell had said.
Judge McCredie Explains.
"I wired to a friend in Portland to
find out if the Chicago deal was
authentic and received a reply that it
was. The Pittsburg club certainly felt
it should have received Holloeher after
Walter McCredie made the promise
that we could have our pick of the
club. But after listening to what Judge
McCredie said. I guess we will have to
be satisfied and forget it."
Let us quote Judge McCredie: "We
wanted to sell Holloeher to the Pirates,
but we did not hear from them. Bezdek
says they did not make inquiry be
cause they felt they would put through
the deal before the drafting season ar
rived. "It was getting mighty close to the
time when we either had to sell Hol
loeher or lose him at the draft price
and as we did not hear from Pitts
burg we concluded they did not want
our shortstop. In fact. Chicago did not
feel sure they wanted him and Scout
Jack Kelly, of the New York Ameri
cans, was out here and he said Hol
loeher could not hit, so when Chicago
again made us an ofler we accepted
it in a hurry and closed the deal.
Chuclc Ward's Work Good.
"We will always be pleased to deal
with Pittsburg and I am sorry this
little misunderstanding took place."
Judge McCredie laughingly said that
he was even with the Pittsburg club
now, because Walter McCredie. was
bent on drafting "Irish" Meusel out of
the New York State League a few
years ago. but Scout Neil talked him
out of it and got him to draft Owen
Quinn. the f irst-sacker, who failed to
beat Louie Ouisto out a job.
Bezdek took time to predict that
"Chuck"' Ward should develop into a
wonderful third Backer, but when in
formed a report was current that Ward
had been drafted and joined the Army
the Pirate manager looked gloomy.
Ward played a great game for us,"
said Bezdek. "He is a wonderful third
baseman. I shoved him over there one
game and he went like a house afire.
He is going to make a crackerjack
around the third cushion if he ever
gets out of the Army. He is a vastly
improved ballplayer since he joined the
Pirates and I was figuring on him to
help round out my infield for next
year."

Meet Muff Bronson, of Portland,
Wins to Box Uromco.
to
Joe Flanagan, manager of the Co
lumbia Athletic Club, yesterday an
nounced his card for the opening
smoker, Tuesday night. October 30.
line j-toppe, San Francisco light
weight, will meet Muff Bronson in
one of the double main events, while
v eidon Wing and Claire Bromeo will
mix in the other. Lloyd Madden, the
Seattle lightweight, will meet Jack
Wagner in a six-round go. Johnny
Boscovitch will pair off with Fred
Gilbert, the Bend lightweight, in an
other six-round melee, and Flanagan
has arranged a four-round curtain
raiser to prepare the fans for what
he terms the best smoker of the sea
son. Hoppe accepted Flanagan's terms,
and fill finish his training in Portland.
Portland fans will see an entirely dif
ferent style boxer in Hoppe. who con
tinually carries the fight to his oppo
nent and has a sleep-producing wal
lop in either mitt.
Hoppe's record is one that carries
a long list of quick knockouts, and
Muff Bronson will have to use all his
pugilistic knowledge to batter down
the fusillade of wallops which Hoppe
is sure to shower on him.
Weldon Wing and Claire Bromeo
will battle for the featherweight
championship of the Pacific Coast.
Wing claims the title and Bromeo is
a contender who has the appearance
of a coming star. His defeat of Charlie
Moy, Jimmy Dundee and others stamps
him as a boxer who must be taken
into consideration.
The Jack Wagner-Lloyd Madden
bout should be a rattling good one.
Wagner's easy defeat of Koscoe Tay- i
lor the other evening earned him the
right to meet a boxer of Madden's
caliber. Madden is well known here,
having battled all the Portland light
weights, and is a big favorite with
Portland fight fans.
'SHINE BALL' DECLARED MYTH
Pitcher Clcotte Says He 'Framed' It
With 'Hap' Kelsch.
TOLEDO, O.. Oct. IS. The secret of
Eddie Clcotte's "shine" ball is that
there is not and never has been such
a thing. It was a myth devised for its
psychological effect. The admission
was made by Cicotte yesterday while
passing through here with other mem
bers of the new world's champion Chi
cago Americans.
"Hap" Kelsch and I framed it on the
training trip." said Clcotte. "The idea
was to rub the ball in a peculiar way
to make the batsmen think I was doing
something to it. I wasn't really, but
others thought I was. Felsch started
the talk going in St. Louis, got Fielder
Jones all worked up about it. and the
first thing we knew the 'shine' ball
was an established fact in most minds."
FLANAGAN GETS PERMIT
PROMOTER TO STAGE BOXING CARD
OCTOBER SO.
Jimmy Dundee, Oakland Bantam. I
definitely Suspended From Ap
pearing; In Portland.
The Portland Boxing Commission
held its regular meeting Wednesday
night. The Commission granted a per
mit to Joe Flanigan. manager of the

show on October 30 instead of October
6, as originally scheduled.
Jimmy Dundee, Oakland bantam
weight, was indefinitely suspended

local boxer, who was suspended at the
last session of the Commission, was
reinstated after proving that it was
not his fault that he failed to go on
at the Rose City School of Boxing
show September 28.
Edward O'Connell, representing the
Northwest Athletic Club, and Mike
Butler, manager of Butler's Training
School, received permits to stage box
ing cards in November. The dates will
be fixed at the next meeting.

homes for the democracy of the world.
The parade will contain the members
of the families of the men who are
risking their lives in the war. and it is
th hope of General Beebe and the lib
erty loan committee that every home
in Portland and in near-by towns that
has sent a recruit to tlie war will be
represented.
The idea of the parade originated
with C. M. Hemphill.
"There is vital need of arousing the
people to the necessity of subscribing
tne noerty loan,' said Mr. Hemphill.
"We are lagging. The people seem tr
have forgotten the thousands who have
gone from here, and that the honor of
Oregon is at stake."

SEALS INCREASE THEIR LEAD
Finish of Coast League Race Prom
ises to Be Exciting.
The Seals moved away from the
Angels in their race for the leadership
of the Pacific Coast League yester
day when they put over a win on Bill
Bernhard's Salt Lake club while the
Angels bit the dust in their encounter
with Vernon.
The standings of the two clubs:
San Francisco 554
Los Angeles 549
Each team is trying hard to eliminate
the other from the race, but they still
continue to jam close in the percentage
column. Jerry Downs is driving the
Seals along at a furious clip, while
Wade Killefer is exerting every effort
to overtake the Seals.
It promises to be an exciting finish
with the pennant in doubt until the
last man is out October 28.
A San Francisco writer says that
outside of watching Charlie Holloeher
cavort around the short field the only
redeeming feature of the Beavers' ap
pearance is Walter McCredie's bottle
green sweater. Let's see, the Beavers
lost another game yesterday. Maybe
he's right.
