LOSS OF NEWMAN CRIPPLES AGGIES Prospects of Victory Over Oregon Thanksgiving Day Greatly Lowered. OREGON SURPRISES FANS Defeat of California Giant Almost Stuns Students "With Its Unex pectedness Bears Are Entirely Outclassed. BY JAMES J. RICHARDSON. Meier ("Darkhorse") Newman, Ore gon Aggie star fullback, will not be able to don a football uniform again tnis season as the result of badly torn ligaments in his right shoulder which he sustained in the last quarter of the Oregon Aggie - Washington game at Seattle, Saturday. Newman made a flying tackle and was dragged for a considerable dis tance on the hard ground. Seattle phy sicians were under the impression that Newman sustained a broken shoulder, but X-ray photos taken yesterday, by Dr. Akin, Portland physician, revealed some torn ligaments and Newman was advised to forget football for the rest of this season. Newman's injury will weaken the Aggie eleven considerably. The former Lincoln High School star was a tower of strength in the Aggie lineup, and Coach ripal practically built his 1917 eleven around him. The absence of Newman from the Aggie lineup will be a hard blow for the supporters of the black and orange school, who hoped for a victory over Oregon in the gridiron classic to be staged on Multnomah field Thanksgiving day. Newman paraded about town yester day with his right arm in a sling and was in mourning over the doctor's jiucra proniomng nis appearance another football game this season. in Coach Pipal expressed the senti ments of the entire team whin he said: it ui iiiant; a Dig aurerence in our plans for the Oregon game now that Newman is out for the remainder of me season, our backfield was Just be ginning to show up in irood shane an.l especially Newman, who was a tower of Lrengm Dotn on offense and defense. i win probably use either Bissett or Rose at fullback. Both are eager i piaj me position now that Newman Is on the shelf. While the boys feel gloomy over the prospects for a vic tory over Oregon with Newman o of the game, thev will rnir n n, training with a determination to fight to the end." I expect a number of the old grad uates back this week to help put the finishing touches on the boys for the Oregon game. Abraham, Pete Ander son and Leo Laythe are among those expected to assist. With these men assisting me. I will be able to give the Aggies more individual attention." Commenting on Oregon's victory over California. Pipal said he expected Ore gon to hold the Bears to a close score, but, like the rest of the dopesters, was surprised at the big score Bezdek's crew piled up. Coach Pipal announced that George Varnell, of Spokane, has been agreed on for referee, and Plowden Stott, Portland, for umpire. The head lines men will be either R. L. Matthews, football coach at Willamette Univer sity, or Dr. Fenstermacher, of Wash ington High School. The entire Northwest is still agog over Oregon's great victory over Cali fornia at Eugene Saturday, when Bezdek's team upset the dope sheets and everything else by walloping the Bears, 21 to 0. Immediately after the game at Eu gene Saturday the students were so surprised at the overwhelmingly clean and decisive defeat of California that most of the Lemon-Yellow adherents were attacked with "lockjaw." They couldn't say a word. . Oregon's midgets. a3 you might term Bezdek's team ihen comparing them with California's giants, sallied into Saturday's game determined to defeat the Bears and thereby wipe out their claims to the intercollegiate conference championship. Oregon's chances of do ing so, before the struggle, appeared dim, but after Bezdek's team started to work they dazzled California at all de partments of the game and the lemon yellow battlers were never headed. One of the incidents of Saturday's Oregon victory was the playing of Mai son, at end. Until Thursday afternoon, Maison was one of the scrubs. The regulars knocked Maison on his head a couple of times and stepped all over him until Bezdek decided that a 140 pound youngster who could stand that mauling was entitled to a chance on the varsity. And Maison made good with a vengeance. . He kicked off for Oregon at the opening of hostilities and besides intercepting two forward passes and . mussing up a number of California's aerial attacks, he was sure death to California's players who tried for end runs. More power to him. Steers. Medley, Leslie and for that matter the entire Oregon eleven cannot be praised too highly for their great triumph over California. Jj. E.

Equally Powerful. dobie's Men score most Annapolis Eleven Piles Cp 4 42 to 23 Scored Against It Pitts burg and Williams Are Only Undefeated Aggregations. Results of Saturday's Eastern grid iron contests made no radical changes in the relative standing of the elevens, save to emphasize more strongly than ever the powerful scoring machine which Coach Gilmour Dobie has built up at Annapolis. By scoring 80 points against Villa Nova Saturday the Navy raised its total scores to 442. while other elevens have scored but 23 points against it. This is nearly double the total tallied by rival elevens. In view of the games played Saturday the Eastern elevens may be said to rank about as follows: Pittsburg. Navy, Georgia Institute of Technology. Army. Williams, Pennsylvania, Dart mouth, Syracuse, West Virginia. Wash ington and Jefferson. Colgate, Cornell, Amherst and Carlisle. Georgia Eleven Strong:. As a scoring machine the Georgia Institute of Technology is second among Atlantic seaboard elevens, hav ing rolled up 2S5 points against oppos ing teams to 10 scored against it. Pittsburg, Williams and Georgia Tech. to date are the only undefeated football teams in the East. The Navy's loss early in the season to West Virginia and the Army's de feat by Notre Dame remove these two elevens from the list of undefeated teams, but their remarkable showing in their later games undoubtedly entitles them to places among the leading teams. Eastern critics rank them on a par with Pittsburg and Georgia Tech. Although Williams has gone through the season without a defeat, its sched ule of games has not included the powerful elevens embraced in the schedules of the Army and Navy, and critics have accorded Williams a rank only on a par with the Cadets and Middies and not above, as it might seem the school should receive. Scores Are Given. The games played by the leading Eastern elevens so far this season are as follows: Navy.

PITCHING IN MAJOR LEAGUES AIRTIGHT IN RECENT SEASON Five No-Hit Games Are Played This Year in Big Leagues and Fifteen Contests Are Remarkable for but Single Hit Past Records Surpassed. AIRTIGHT pitching was more prev alent in the American League than in the National during the campaign of 1917, as shown by the sea son's records. Also the pitching was "air-tighter" than last year, or any previous period since the slabman was moved back to his present distance from the plate. Five no-hit games were pitched In the major leagues this year, not In cluding one that was handed Koob, of the Browns, by post-mortem scoring and later ruled out by President John son, of the American League. Neither Is a genuine no-hit game pitched by Vaughn, of the Cubs, included in the five. He held Cincinnati to nothing in the swat column in nine innings, but two hits were made off him in the tenth. That calls for an official ruling as to Vaughn's right to no-hit honors. Four American League games were played in which one team made no hifs. There was one such combat in the Na tional. Cicotte, of the White Sox; Mogridge, of the Yankees, and Groom, of the Browns, delivered genuine no hit performances on the slab. The other no-hit game In the American League was shared by Ruth and Shore, of the Red Sox, the former being taken out for a pinch hitter before it was completed. Tonry Operates on Cob. Toney, of the Reds, held the Cubs to no hits in ten innings. Toney wrote his name prominently into history in the same game in which Vaughn held the Reds hitless for nine rounds, only to lose out in the tenth. American League pitchers held their opponents to only one hit in nine in nings 12 times this year. There were only three such games in the National There were 22 games in the old league in which only two hits were made and 18 two-hit games In the younger circuit. Three-hit games were decidedly numer ous, th,ere being 41 of them in the American and 3 In the National. The list of low-hit games follows: AMERICAN LEAGCE, No-Hit Games.

CHICAGO, Nov. IS. -With Ohio State in possession of the Big Ten football championship (or the second consecu tive season, Chicago, Illinois and Min nesota, each with a defeat chalked up against them, will fight it out next Saturday for secondary honors of the Western Conference race. The powerful Ohio eleven, with "Chick" Harley, all-American halfback, again Its star, crushed Illinois. 13 to 0." yesterday and kept its slate clean. The Ohioans played a remarkable race, hav ing been scored on only twice in seven games. Minnesota displayed a surpris ing reversal of form in downing Chi cago. 33 to 0. The defeat of the Ma roons, their first loss this year, may be recorded as one of the biggest upsets or me year. The -Maroons were com pieveiy outclassed ana never had a chance. The battered-up Iowa eleven staged an unexpected stand against the sup posedly superior Northwestern team. and although beaten. 25 to 14, put up an exhibition of thrills. Northwestern regarded the contest merely as a nrac tice affair for the game with Michigan next Saturday, and overconf idence of tne purple-clad players nearly resulted in their downfall. The Michigan Atrtries continued to hit the toboggan, losing lueir sevenin straigni game of the sea son to Notre Dame, 23 to 0. The game was a poor exnioitlon.
