TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1918. 15 FOOTBALL HERE IS UP .JO m QlllE' Camp Lewis-Multnomah Game Question Not Settled. SOLDIERS SHINE BRIGHTLY Thirteenth Divisioners Just'as Strong if "ot Stronger Than 91st, Ac cording to Sport Writer. r BY JAMES J. RICHARDSON. If the Spanish -flu" ban Is lifted in Portland by next Saturday and Captain ? G Cook, head of athletics at Camp Lewis, is able to sift his : Kreeation of gridiron performers Through the closely guarded fluanm tine lines at the big cantonment. Port land football enthusiasts are going to vast their glimmers upon what Is un doubtedly the most formidable collec tion of gridders in the Northwest when Camp Lewis lines up against the Mult nomah Amateur Athletic Club eleven. Of course. Captain Cook, always on the alert to pull one from the clouds, suggested my telling him that the 13th Iivisioners were not in the Bame cate gory with the 91st Division eleven which represented Camp Lewi, last season, but who are now springing for ward passes and criss-cross bucks on Kaiser Bill s retreating players, but the Camp Lewis officer was 'kidding no body but himself. The lst Division eleven which played the Mare Island Marines at Pasadena during the Tournament of Roses last Xew Year s day was a pretty nifty ag gregation, but in the opinion of the writer they were not the equal of the 13th Division eleven which has sup planted the 91st which is now in 1'rance. , That the soldiers did not register a bigger score against Foundation last Sunday was attributed to the lone fact that only ten-.ninute quarters were in dulged in. Had the khaki-clad war riors played 15-minute quarters a score twice as large as that chalked up might have been obtained. The soldiers' interference was the best we have seen for a good many seasons. Their line was Impregnable. And each player is a former college star of the first magnitude. The soldiers' backfield compares with any on the coast. Lyle Blgbee, former University of pregon halfback, is play ing a wonderful game. Blackwell, former Oregon Aggie who later starred at the University of Montana, is one of the fullbacks. Boyd and Bougan are stellar lights at right half. Bougan, especially is a great broken field run r.er and a hard man to tackle. He wiggles and squirms his way through the opposition. Huyck and Skadan are experts at quarterback. Selph at center Is passing beautifully. And the beauty of it all is that Captain Cook has a force of reserves on the bench that are said to be the equal of the first team. The soldiers have been practicing but two weeks. Another 15 or 20 days and they'll be going at top speed. Cap tain Cook has a strong eleven. They'll be put to the acid test next Saturday if they play Multnomah. After the Camp Lewis-Foundation game Coach Dewey and the shipyard players were telling "Rube" Evans that when he is carrying the ball or running interference he runs too high. "Run too high." enickered Evans, "Huh. nobody has to tell me that aUer Blackwell planted 'his big head square into the pit of my stomach and laid me low for about ten minutes. Run ning too high is right, but from now on I'm going to double up like a ques tion mark. Watch me." "Pudge" Brown and Denny Williams, well-known Portland athletes now in the service and stationed at Camp Lewis, sat on the Foundation bench during the game. They also are high in their praise of the Camp Lewis ag gregation. Several times during the game at Camp Lewis Sunday there were slight squabbles over the rules. The officials showed lack of acquaintance with the 1918 rule book on a number of oc casions, but their decisions one way or the other .made no difference in the outcome of the game. In the first quarter when Founda tion had the ball on their ten-yard line and Horton was forced to kick he put a bit of English on the pikskin oval and it careened over to the right and then rolled back behind Foundation's Contentment is a state of mind.

"Just shift the whole clothes problem wer to Cherry's and forget about it. They tog you up like a real fellow and give you weeks, and weeks to pay for them. Just heard the other day that they have nine or ten stores up and down the Coast. So I suppose buying for so many Is the secret of their very moderate prices and easy terms. It's the only way to buy clothes these days on account of war conditions, when there are so many places to put your money.- I was giving their suits and overcoats the once-over, and I tell you they are beauts, r certainly was sur prised, as 1 supposed the war had- put the kibosh on anything decent for civil ian clothes.

Pi goal line. The players of both teams chased after the ball each afraid to touch it. The referee Jammed Into the crowd and picked the ball up. Had a Camp Lewis player fallen on the ball it would have been a touchdown for the soldiers. In Justice to the officials who meant well it must be said that they were recruited at the last minute without having a chance to prep up on the rules. Bob Black, Golf Professional, Weds. Bob Black, the well-known and well liked golf professional at the Sequoyah Golf Club, San Francisco, was married yesterday to Miss Blanch Wolf, of Oak land, and Black's friends at the club CAMP FREMONT GRATEFUL. OFFICE OF THE DIVISION ATHLETIC DIRECTOR. Camp Fremont, Cal., Oct. 14. (To Sporting Editor.) May I. as representing the Division Athletic' Council. . take this opportunity of thanking both yourself and the members of your staff for your kindness in giving such wide publicity to the box ing carnival recently he?ld in Portland for the benefit of the athletic fund at Camp Fremont and other posts on the Pacific Coast. Corporal Ardiss (Bobby Evans), under whose auspices the affair was given, spoke very kindly of the courteous treatment that he received at your hands. It is surely gratifying to find such a fine spirit of co-operation on the part of the people of Port land in general. Rest assured that such a spirit will not soon be lost sight of by the officers and men of the Eighth Division. Again thanking you, I am, very, truly yours, BENJ. H. POPE.

The famous Marines band will make the trip north with the football team and will give a series of concerts in the Northwest. It . is said that six boxers will also accompany the foot ball aggregation. Orea-on was originally scheduled to clash with the Oregon Aggies in Cor- vallis on November 23, but when the two state institutions got together and arranged a double tilt November 9 and 16, It left Oregon with an open aate on their hands. Major Itiner, of the Marines, is in the East noV looking over the foot ball teams of the service and if he can arrange a game with a strong aggre gation like the Great Lakis Naval Training Station, to be played in Chi cago sometime in December the Marines will make an Eastern trip after the Thanksgiving day game in Tacoma.

POLICY IS NATION-WIDE -amn T.en-is Turn and Mare Island Marines Are Suggested for Con test on Multnomah Field. "What two stellar gridiron elevens will be seen in action on Multnomah Field some time during the month of November for the benefit of the war charities fund? That is the burning question since it has been decided "to stage intercol legiate and service football contests under the direction of the War. and Navy departments for the benefit of the big war charities fund, which soon is to begin its nationwide arive ana ar rangements for which are now being formulated back In New York, and Washington. Games will be played In all sections of the country, and efforts will be made to bring together leading elevens and above all old rivals, such as the Army and Navy, Cornell and Pennsylvania. Amherst and Williams, and even Har vard and Yale and Princeton. The plans for the carnival of foot ball were discussed at a recent meet ing of college men In New York and the details were left in the hands of Herbert L. Pratt, of Amherst, who re cently returned from France, where he had gone for the Y. M. C. A. The com mittee headed by Pratt will again meet this coming week In New York to for mulate definite plans and lie up games which it thinks will bring the fund the greatest return. Then invitations w-ill be issued to the colleges to play the contests. It will be hard on any col lege that turns down such an invitatio. It might be suggested that Portland try and arrange a game on Multnomah Field some time during November for the benefit of the war charities fund. If it is imDossible to brine two repre sentative colleges together why not pit the 13th Division team or camp Lewis against the Mare Island Marines? Camp Lewis vs. Mare island arew 22,000 people at Pasadena last New Year's day. and rival elevens of the same two camps would draw an enor mous crowd to Multnomah Field. It would be well for those in charge of the drive in Portland to get busy and start the ball rolling to land such a rare gridiron treat. www Pennsylvania will play Dartmouth on Franklin Field, Philadelphia, Saturday, November 9. Several weeks ago Dart mouth gave up the idea of playing foot ball and the game with I'enn was con sidered canceled. However, Dartmouth has revived football. The game with Dartmouth completes Penn's November schedule, with the exception of the game with Cornell. Brown University has opened nego tiations for a game with Syracuse in November. If arrangements are finally completed It is said the game will be played in New York. Syracuse and Brown entered into a two-year agree ment when the college schedules for last year were in the making, but with the aboliiton of collegiate football the game was canceled. Now that the "regi mental" elevens under Army Student Training Corps rules are re-riving the game the two big schools win most likely get together. Annapolis has three games scheduled on their home grounds. The Middies will play Great Lakes Naval Training Station, November 23. Newport Naval Reserve is booked for next Saturday. The other service team to play the fu ture Navy officers has not been made known. FDOTBJILL MEN MEETTODAY' LEAGUE'S FLANS ARE HELD VP BY "INFIX." Only Shitting of Dates Wil Be Neces sary When It Comes to Playing Off Schedule of Year. A meeting of the football coaches of the Interscholastic League will be held in the Oregon Hotel this afternoon at 3 o'clock for the purpose of taking ac tion on the' remainder of the football schedule which was riddled to pieces when the State Board of Health or dered that no public gatherings be held during the present epidemic of Spanish influenza- Only three games were piayea wnen the ban was placed on all forms of amusements. Today's meeting no doubt will decide to take up the schedule as previously arranged as soon as the ban is lifted. A mere shuffling of dates only will be required to start the ball rolling again, or tne eignt teams en tered in the league only Columbia Uni versity and Hill Military Academy have not been seen in action. Their game was scheduled to be played the day the lid was placed on amusements. The high school teams have been turning out for scrimmage during the period the ban has been placed on games. Each coach is anxious to keep his warriors fh the best of shape so that all the coaches will have to do this afternoon will be to shuffle the play- ne dates and the battles will be re sumed as soon-as the lid is taken off the city. The eight teams entered In the In terscholastic League this season are Dretty evenly balanced. Hardly any of last season's stars are noted in the various lineups, but the coaches have gathered together some capable substi tutes for the boys who left.

Several Big: Rinks in East Reported to Have Decided to Call Off Sport Till War Is. Over. Indoor Ice hockey is apt to be a dead issue this season and possibly for the duration of the war if the action of the ice rinks in the East is any indi cation of what is going to transpire in Portland. All of the ice rinks in the East, including the several big rinks of Pittsburg, have signified their in tentions of closing up shop until the war is over. This action is said to be taken on account of Government regu lations governing the use of ammonia. Manager Edgar Bryan saia last nignt that he heard all of the Eastern ce rinks would be closed this season and that if any hockey was to be played it would be o the outdoor variety. 'I have received no orncial notice from the food 'administration, said Bryan, "and not until I make applica tion for ammonia lor ice skating pur poses will I know just what will hap pen." The local ornce or tne iooa adminis tration was quizzed on the subject and stated that no application for a permit to use ammonia for amusement pur poses had been received and it was doubtful if permission would be granted to the local rink to use am monia for freezing the thousands of feet of oiDe at the Ice Palace. Until application for permission to use the ammonia is made no action will be taken. Pete Muldoon was a Portland visitor a few days ago and informed Bryan that the Seattle rink would open, but at that time the Government ruling re garding ammonia being used for Ice rink purposes is said, not to have been in. effect. 'If they won t let them nave am monia for ice rinks in the East, I am sure they will not get it out here," said an official of the local food adminis tration office yesterday.
