A
single touchdown, scored unex
pectedly in the second period, enabled
Lincoln High to win a fast and furious
iootoall frame from Washington High
jesteraay. before 1800 fans. The score
was 6 to 0." Lincoln alone turned out
more- than a thousand to the frame
Washington's representation was rath
er a disappointment, as out of a school
01 iduo a few more than. 500 turned out
to roof for their team. A large crowd
of football , enthusiasts from other
ecnooirf also attended the match.
j.incoin swept Washington off its
reet during the initial period. Wash
lngton kickedoff. Lincoln pot the ball
and made yardage three times. Wash
ington stopped the rush when Lindsay
rccoverea a rumble by Tuerck, of Lin
coln. The Rallsplltters soon regained
tne ball, however, when Larrimore
hooked a fumble by Washington's left
halfback. A series of line plunges by
Wright. Rogoway and Tuerck then put
me oan on wasnington s 10-yard line,
where the East Siders took a new lease
of life and held Lincoln for downs.
Beamer made a short end run, putting
the ball on the 15-yard line at the end
of the quarter. . ,
Score Comes Q.nl-kly.
The crowd didn't have to wait long
for things to happen at the start of the
second quarter. Washington elected to
punt out of danger. They did the op
posite. Sanders, Lincoln's center,
blocked the kick, which bounded back
behind the. Washington goal and .was
recovered by Fullback Wolff for a
touchdown, the only score of the game
Wright missed the goal by a few
inches.
Washington then, came to life and
played, up to its foe for the rest of
the period. Left Half Glass carried
the ball and half the Lincoln line for
a good eight yards. On the next play
Sanders, of Lincoln, intercepted a pass
shot by LaHoche, and the half ended
with the ball in the center of the field.
Lincoln kicked off in the third
period. Sunderlief made yardage for
Washington, but the bail was lost on
a fumble by Glass. Wolff recovering.
Tuerck and Larrimore then pulled off
a neat pass for 15 yards, edging the
play down toward the Washington
goal. Three straight linebucks failed
to move the ball forward again, how
ever, so Lincoln tried a pass on the
last down. The transfer was success
fully completed. Tuerck to Larrimore,
but as it failed to make the required
3 0 yards the ball went to Washington.
Star playing by Glass. Beamer and
Bauer aided "Washington, in making
yardage twice before the period was
over, so the ball was in a safe position
before the next quarter started.
Lincoln Line Punctured.
Washington . played rings around
Lincoln during the better part of the
final quarter. The right side of the
Lincoln line sprung an unexpected
leak that threatened to prove fatal.
Coach Karl tried three substitutions
before he found the combination to
stem the rush. Once the line was re
paired, Lincoln played it .safe, punt
ing back every time they got the ball.
Beamer. Sunderlief, Hitchcock and
Glass played a wonderful game for
Washington. Sanders was Lincoln's
best bet. with Edwin Wright. Enkelis
and Larrimore going at top speed.

PITCHER SCOTT GETS SHAKE
Comi.skey Sends Aspirant for Com
mission Part of Series Cash.
CHICAGO, Nov. 7. (Special.) Presi
dent Comiskey, of the White Sox, has
completed the task of answering 200,
OOu letters and telegrams of congratu
lation on winning the world's pennant
sent him by fans from all 'over the
Middle West.
One of the letters that pleased Com
iskey most was written by Jim Scott,
a prospective officer in the National
Army, who left the world's champions
in August to Join the officers' reserve
training camp at Presidio of San Fran
cisco, and is nearing the end of his
probationary work.
Although Scott lost that wicked
curve which made him the terror of
American League batsmen, and was of
comparatively little use to the White
Sox this last season, and left the team
nearly two months before the season
was over, he received his salary in full
for the year, and it was a "wartime"
salary at that.
In addition Scott received a. share of
the White Sox end of the world series
pool, consequently he lost nothing by
starting early to prepare himself to
lead a company of Uncle Sam's Jboys
over the top when the proper time ar
rives. CALIFORNIA S

PULLMAN HOPE HIGH
Washington State Crew Is in
Fine Fettle for Aggies.
PIPAL'S MEN PRACTICE
Orceon Asrlcultural College Eleven
Works Hard for Game WlUcli
Will Decide Title All
Soldiers Get in Free.
BY JAMES J. RICHARDSON.
The stage is all set at Corvallis for
next Saturday's big gridiron clash
when William ("Lonestar") Dietz and
his warriors from Washington State
College will invade the camp of Joe
Pipal's Oregon Aggies and battle for
the Northwest college conference loot-
ball championship.
Without a defeat attached to their
1917 gridiron record, the lads from
Pullman, who have been conceded by
majority of football experts of the
Northwest to possess the best aggre
gation that has ever represented the
Pullman institution, will arrive in
Portland tomorrow morning and con
tinue on their way to Corvallis, where
they will have a light workout tomor
row afternoon for Saturday's clash.
Dietz is confident and so are his
players that they will be able to hold
the Aggies safe in Saturday's encoun
ter, and the Aggie supporters assert
that Pipal's crew are going to give
Washington State one of the hardest
battles they have had this season.
Washington State has been able to
mow its other conference adversaries
down in great style. Dietz's huskies
have rolled up a total of 64 points
against three for their opponents.
Aggies Work Hard.
Oregon Aggie supporters felt much
chagrined at the showing the Corvallis
youths made against the University
of California, until Claude Hunt bun
dled his University of Washington
maulers together and Journeyed to
Berkeley, where the California Bears
crushed the Washlngtonians, 27 to 0.
The real strength of the Bears was
made known in the Washington game,
and the Aggie supporters now realize
that Pipal's aggregation was up
against a tough proposition in the
California battle.
Since the team returned Pipal has
been putting the boys through some
stiff workouts. Last Saturday's game
with Multnomah, in which the club
men managed to hold Pipal's crew to a
small score, is not taken as any indica
tion of the strength of the Aggie
eleven.
The Aggies had their last hard
scrimmage yesterday, Pipal let the
boys off in the afternoon and they were
in line last night with the entire stu
dent body which held a big rally on
the Aggie campus. Punting and sig
nal practice will be indulged in today
and. tomorrow.
Blxnett Out of Game.
Lee Bissett will not be in Saturday's
game against Washington State. Arch
ibald, the former Willamette University
star, will play right tackle in Bissett's
place and Webster will be shoved in
at right end.
Until last night Coach Pipal was in
hopes that Bissett would be able to
turn out for practice and be in shape
for Saturday's game, but the injured
hip of the star Aggie tackle has been
slow to respond to the doctor's care,
and last night Pipal gave up all hopes
of Bissett facing Washington State.
Carl Lodell, former Jefferson High
School star, is in great shape for Sat
urday's contest. Pipal is grooming the
youngster to give Bangs, Washington's
star punter, a real argument. Lodell
has been booting the ball for 45 and
50 yards during practice this week, and
the Aggie supporters are confident he
will be able to outpunt Bangs Saturday.
Newman Is in Shape.
"Darkhorse" Newman is down to
weight, and the former Lincoln High
demon is destined to make some big
dents in Washington State's line. New
man was the whole show in the Aggie
game against California, and Coach
Pipal is authority for the statement
that Newman was way over weight.
Now that the youngster is in the "pink"
he is going to make trouble for Wash
ington State.
Saturday's game will be played be
fore a banner crowd. It is home
coming week at Corvallis, and the fra
ternities and sororities are planning on
entertaining record crowds.

HALFBACK BANGS IS INJURED
Fast Pullman Player May Be Out of
Game With Oregon Aggies.
WASHINGTON STATE COLLEGE.
Pullman, Oct. 7. (Special.) Coach
Dietz and Athletic Director Bohler said
today that it was doubtful if Benton
Bangs, the sensational ground-gaining
halfback on the. Washington State
eleven, would play against the Oregon
Aggies. Dr. Bohler said that Bangs
received a cut in his right foot in last
Saturday's tussle with Idaho and that
complications set in so that it was
necessary to have a physician onerate
on the wound. Bangs was removed to
the college hospital to rest until the
team leaves for Corvallis tomorrow
night.
Bangs' play has been the feature of
the Crimson and Gray attack in every
Intercollegiate contest this Autumn. A
rough estimate shows that he has
gained from scrimmage approximately
470 yards.
Barring the injury to Bangs, the team
emerged from the Idaho fracas un
scathed. It was the first contest in
four years in which less than three
Washington Staters have been injured
by the fierce play of the Idahoans.
The team will be ready to nlav tha
limit against the Aggies Saturday,"
said Coach Dietz today. "The men
have worked harder and have shown

Doane. Glover, Hanley, Gillis and

power of the mighty Bangs. Schnebley
will continue at center, with Stites and
McCroskey at guards, Herreid and
Hamilton at tackles and Captain Zim
merman and Roy Hanley on the wings.
A squad of 20 players will be taken
to the Agfie battle.
St. Louis Boxing Club to Close.
ST. LOUIS, Nov. 7. Chief of Police
Young said today that the Future City
Athletic Club, which has been staging
boxing bouts every week for several
years, would be closed. Police last
night stopped a fight at the club be
tween Bobby Anderson, of Duquoln,
111., and Jimmy Reagan, of San Fran

CELLAR FIGHT ON
Commerce and Benson Play to
Decide Last Place.
ELEVENS WELL MATCHED
Polytechnic Team Is Slightly Heav

Regarded as a Bit More
Versatile and Speedier.
the High School of Commerce and
the Benson Polytechnic School will
clash at 3 P. M. today on Multnomah
Field to see which climbs out of last
place. Yearly the game between the
tailenders has proved one-of the best
of the season, for the rival elevens fight
with heart and soul and brain to es
cape being shunted into last place for
good. It is the only game of the sched
ule in which the schools actually play
teams in their own class and have a
fair chance to win. and. apDreciatinsr
this fact, they always put up their
hardest game.
Through all the other games of the
year the little schools, hopelessly out
classed, fight gamely.
It costs money a sumrisine amount
to the outsider to equip a team for the
football season, be it weak or strong.
The teams are financed by the athletic
associations of the schools and with the
little schools, which turn out noor
crowds to most of their tramea. it is
the "big game" that saves them finan
cially. Practically the entire student
body of the rival schools turns out and
the money from the tickets sold at this
one game is the lifesaver of the season.
commerce. Hill and Benson were the
tailenders this year. Hill eliminated
itself from last place by defeating Ben

place, as she has yet to play both Hill

VANCOUVER, B. C, Nov. 7. (Spe
cial.) A 24-game split schedule, start
ing December 14, the first half ending
about the middle of January and the
second half about the middle of March,
will be adopted by the Pacific Coast
Hockey Association at the annual meet
ing to be held In this city Friday.
Such was the announcement which
President Frank Patrick made today
upon his return from Seattle where he
has been looking over the hockey sit
uation. President Patrick said that
all the officials who attended the recent
meeting of the league in Seattle were
in favor of experimenting with a split
schedule, believing that it will be the
means of providing keen competition
throughout the season.
The winners of the first half will
play off with the winners of the sec
ond half for the championship, or in
the event of the winners of the first
half finishing in front in the second
half they will compete for the Stanley
cup without further play on the Coast.
It is altogether likely that the pro
posed changes in the rules will go
through at the annual meeting without
& dissenting voice.
The Portland Club is looking about
for a manager to handle the Rosebuds
this season. Ed Savage, former man
ager, is In business in Seattle, and will
not likely accept the position again.
NOTRE DAME ELEVEN' STRONG
Defeat of West Point Brings Team
Into Prominence in East.
NEW YORK, Nov. 7. A new factor
has arisen on the football horizon. It
comes out of the West Notre l'ame.
The unexpected victory of the Indiana
eleven over West Point Saturday dis
closed play of such powerful character
that it gives promise of enabling the
South Bend team to go through the
season without a defeat. In that case,
the Westerners will be candidates for
the premier honors of the gridiron for
the current season.
There was only the difference be
tween a touchdown and a goal on one
side and a safety on the other, but it
was enough. It showed that the win
ners had the power to cross a fiercely
defended goal line. The touchdown
was dramatically won, too. It indi
cated that the Indiana team had the
football sense to seize the crucial op
portunity, the daring to put a brilliant
ly conceived play into Instant execu
tion and the power to overcome des
perate opposition from a team that has
been hailed as one of the season's best.
Likewise, the victory was won on a
foreign field, jvith the encouraging
cries from a biased throng rattling in
the ears of the invaders and spurring
on their opponents.

December 4.
MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 7. (Special.)
Mike Gibbons, admiral of the short

turned home the other day.
He announced that he had signed
articles to fight Harry Greb, of Pitts

coming along fast on a second-rate
diet lately and Pittsburg believes he
can tame the Phantom.
