13 THE 3I0RXIXQ OREGONIAX, TUESDAY, OCTOBER . 8, 1913. FANS WANT TO SEE BATTLE REPEATED Return Clash Between Elevens Would Be Joy. BARRACKS TO PLAY AGGIES Winged-M Will Journey to Eugene Saturday for Encounter AVith, Varsity Players. f BT JAMES J. RICHARDSON. The 3000 people who watched Foun dation and Vancouver Barracks stage their hard-fought gridiron battle at Sunday's football matinee at the Vaughn-street grounds are aching to eee the same two teams engage in a return clash. The shipbuilders, nat urally, are of the opinion that they have the better aggregation, even though they emerged from the Sabbath fracas on the short end of a 6-to-0 Bcore. Tou can't teU any of the Vancouver khaki-clad warriors that Foundation has a better aggregation than the "Sprucers" and get away with it. No, eiree. The Vancouverites are for their pigskin artists first, last and all the time and maintain that had last Sun day's battle been played . on a field amply covered with sawdust the fipec tators would have been given a rare treat in the art of tricky football. As it was, neither team pulled anything except straight line bucking, with, an occasional attempt at advancing the ball via the aerial route. The rival coaches George Dewey 0. A. C), of Foundation, and Private Leo ("Tick") Malarkey (U. of O.) etill argue they have the most formid able eleven, of the two naturally. Next Saturday, at Corvallis, Van couver Barracks will take on the Ore gon Aggies. Coach Hargiss, of the Aggies, claims a pretty fair aggrega tion. He has about 2300 men to se lect his team from and among them are any number of high school and prep school gridiron stars. The Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club eleven will journey south to Eugene next Saturday and vrage a gridiron battle with the University of Oregon regimental eleven. The winged "M warriors line up like a pretty strong aggregation. Coach Philbrook has been putting the team through some strenu ous practice three nights a week on Multnomah Field. Rehbein, former Lehigh University gridiron star, turned out for practice with the clubmen Sunday morning. He is a backfield player of some prom inence, but Philbrook has not fully de cided where he will station the big fellow. Quite a commotion was caused in the grandstand at Vaughn-street park last Sunday during the Foundation Vancouver football game, when Van couver put over the lone score "of the game against Foundation. Someone remarked that Coach Pri vate Leo Malarkey, of Vancouver, mar ried in order to evade the draft and was later snared in the draft net. The mendacious remark was overh-ard by Mrs. Leo Malarkey and for a minute it looked as if there was going to be trouble. The remark was ill-advised and un timely, because Private Malarkey en deavored to enlist at the time his brothers. Bob and Gerald, went into the service and was turned down on account of being totally blind in one eye from an injury sustained while playing football with the University of Oregon. Malarkey tried to enlist in every branch of the service, and in 1917, when most of the University of Oregon football team joined the Marine Corps, he again tried to get by but was turned down. Malarkey ventured out on the matrimonial sea only after hav ing been told there was no chance to enlist He was later accepted for lim ited service. Private Malarkey's young brother, Gerald, was recently killed on the western front. SEVEN- MILLION TROUT LIBERATED 1,000,000 of Finny Tribe on in Oregon Streams Steelheads. Seven million rainbow and' steelhead trout have just been liberated in Ore gon streams, according to Carl r. Shoe maker, State Fish and Game Warden, who, with I. X. Fleischner, State Fish and Game Commissioner, have just re-, turned to Portland after an 18-day in spection tour. Inspections were made at the Mc Kenzie River hatchery, the hatchery at Butte Falls in Jackson and the hatch ery on Crooked Creek, Klamath Falls. The number of trout liberated this year is much greater than last, as all three hatcheries have been working to capacity, while that of the McKenzie river last season was the only one used. A little less than 1,000.000 of the total number of fish liberated are steel heads. BOXKR JOINS KOl'RTH ESTATE Sailor" George Weston. Portland Boy, Sporting Editor at Mare Island. George B. W-eston. known to the box Ing- fans all along the Pacific Coast as ""Sailor" George Brandon, one of the "best bantamweights in this section of the country, is now sporting editor of the Mare Island Bulletin.

Of late he has not been doing much boxing, outside of training, and spends most of his time at the Elec- II ti S S3 . 3 ti 1 I in it m it trical School at Mare Island and get ting out the sporting page of the publication. Revenge Sweet to 5 p race Men. Revenge is sweet in the minds of the sixth spruce squadron football team. which hung a 7-to-6 defeat on their comrades of the fifth spruce squadron last Saturday on the Vaughn-street grounds. It was a hard-fought battle and the players were busy every sec ond. Saturday's game was the second clash between these two elevens, the fifth squadron winning the first game by exactly the same score as in last Saturday's contest 7 to 6. Now the fifth squadron wants to take the odd game and a contest will probably be arranged for next Saturday either in Vancouver or Portland.

Clemson cup were played Sunday at the Portland Golf Club. It Is a handi cap affair and the beautiful trophy is a two-time-win cup. Last season Ru dolph "Wilhelm, Oregon state champion, annexed the trophy, but as he only has a handicap of one stroke this time, he is liable to experience difficulty get ting into the finals. K. Kay and J. A. Dick were fow net scores with 79. O. H. Baker was third lowest score with 83. Rudolph Wilhelm turned in 84. The following qualified:- E. Kay 79. J. A. Dick 79. O. H. Baker 83. R.

This was disclosed today by the lat est report of the war council. BOXING PROMOTERS MOT GET SURPRISE Commission to Discuss Revi sion of Rules. TROUBLE TO BE PROBED Plans for Staging Future Fistic Smokers Liable to Receive Jolt. Petty Jealousy Disapproved. The Portland Boxing Commission will meet tomorrow night at the Office of Walter B. Honeyman, secretary, at 8 o'clock. Frank E. Watkins, chairman, issued a call to the commissioners yes terday to discuss several changes in the present rules which now govern boxing. It is almost assured that the commis sioners will dive deep into the trouble which pervades the boxing atmosphere in this city and It would not at all be surprising if some of those promoters, desirous of staging future boxing smokers are disappointed in their plans. Chairman Watkins, speaking of the squabbles between promoters, and charges of tampering with boxers, said yesterday, "I don't believe in this petty jealousy among promoters and am op-, posed to granting any permits to those responsible for causing dissatisfaction by trying to induce boxers to remain off from some other promoter's fight card by offering them more money. I am sure the rest of the commissioners feel the same way about it. There has been quite a bit of this method of breeding trouble and the boxing game will never thrive as long as this is al lowed to get by." WatkLne conferred with Chief of Po lice Johnson yesterday and the. latter has some good id;as regarding the boxing situation which Watkins has promised to take up with Mayor Baker and then with the commissioners at their meeting tomorrow night. No definite amount has been named which must be paid into the Oregon Boy's emergency fund out of the net proceeds of each smoker and thia also will- be taken up and decided at the meeting to be held tomorrow night. Jack Fahle, manager of Jimmy Darcy, received a long distance tele phone call from one of the allied pro moters at SanAFrancisco, yesterday, which was as follows: "Hello!" "Hello!" "Is this Darcy? "No, this is Darcy"s manager." "Will you let Darcy fight in San Francisco next Friday night?" "Yes." , "Alright, we want him to fight Kru- voskey." "yes. that's alright, but how much is in it?" "We will give you $250 and two round trip tickets." "Nothing doing, if you make It $350 and tickets 'we will leave in the morn ing." "Well, all Kruvosky got for fightincr in Portland was his railroad ticket and expenses." "That makes no difference to me. If you want Darcy it's 8350 and tickets." "Can't use him." "Good bye!" "Uood night!" One of the shipbuilding magnates, who is a dyed-in-the-wool fight enthu siast, inquires the reason why Johnny McCarthy does not take on Jimmy Darcy even though the latter be heavier. He also remarks that Johnny is always tackling boys who are much lighter in weight and for once in his life ought to give away some poundage himself. There is no question but what Mc Carthy would fight Darcy, even though the Roumanian is heavier by about 12 pounds and would undoubtedly give Johnny a lacing he would not soon for get, but his manager, Sol Lcvinson, knows too much about the boxing game to let Johnny enter into euch a bout. McCarthy will fight anybody his weight and Is willing to give away weight, but when he does it he wants to know "who's who and why."

Street ably let a contract for the laying of four miles of macadam highway be tween Marshfield and Coquille, In Coos County. The estimated cost of the project Is $20,000. Roadmaster Sawyer and Commissioners Philips and Dean, of Coos County, conferred with State Highway Engineer Nunn today rela tive to the work. One question to be determined by the commission tomorrow will be whether the state shall take over the construction of the grading and macadam project between Tillamook and McMinnvllle and known aa the Tillamook-Nestucca highway.

SALMON PRICES DROPPING SUPPLIES BY STATE HATCH ERIES LOWER COST. Fish Now Retail at Municipal Mar. kets In Washington State at 9 Cents a, Pound. Thirty-one state fish hatcheries of Washington are supplying municipal fish markets of several cities with their supplies of salmon, retailing at nine cents a pound, with the result that high prices are dropping among fish deal ers generally, according to L R Dar win, State Fish Commissioner and Game Warden of Washington, who vis ited Portland yesterday. Municipal fish markets have been es tablished, with the Indicated allotments of salmon agreed upon, said Mr. Dar win, in the following cities: Seattle, 240.000 pounds: Tacoma. 150,000 pounds; Spokane, 150,000 pounds; Everett, 60,- 000. So popular has the moderate priced salmon proved to be that the cities are far exceeding their dally ouota. which was Based upon a supply for the year. Thus, with an allotment of 600 pounds per day, Spokane's municipal market has sold 9430 pounds in two days, while similar reports come from the other cities. The fish that irre supplied are se lected from those stripped of their eggs for hatching purposes, and were formerly sold to the canneries. Inas much as the greater part of the "chum" pack has been commandeered this sea son by the Government, it is evident, said Mr. Darwin, that- Washington cities would have sustained a distinct shortage had not the fish commission decided to turn its supply to the mu nicipal markets.
