Mare Island Chief Anxious for

APPLICATION TO BE MADE
California Also Appeals to Grid
Strategist, but Another Coach
Is Engaged.
BY JAMES J. RICHARDSON.
'William Lonestar Diets, football
roach extraordinary, now In Portland
as chief dispenser of football shrewd
ness with the famous Mare Island Ma
rine's eleven, is anxious to land with
one of the big Pacific Coast colleges as
gridiron mentor for next season and is
especially solicitous of grabbing off the
Job at Stanford University, which at
the present time Is enjoying its second
childhood with the American came.
I'letx has assumed a rather tranquil
attitude on the subject of where be in
tends seeking employment in the coach-
lnc line next season, but in a quiet con
fab with the writer yesterday at the
Imperial Hotel accidentally let fly the
remark that there arc two schools on
the Pacific Coast with which h would
like to .be identified in the capacity
of football coach.
"These srla-ols are but a short dis
tance apart." said Diet, as he puffed on
a special brand of cheroot, "and one of
them now has a coach who has been
with them but a short time. Both
schools are dandy institutions and have
a large attendance, with some excel
lent football material. They are great
rivals, but. have not played against
each other in the American game for
a good many years. They are due for
- a clash on Thanksgiving day. which will
' be their first engagement in a number
of seasons.
Of course. I don"t know whether Diets
thought we were all asleep up here
in the Northwest and not familiar with
the channel In which his thoughts were
running, but California and Stanford
are the two schools with reference to
which Dietx spoke.
"Which one of the two schools do you
nrrari. Bill. California or Stanford?"
"Well, they are both dandy schools,
with a world of football material in
each and I would be pleased to identify
myself with either one of them. Cali
fornia has a coach at present, but when
' I get back to California after this tour
with the Mare Island Marines, I am
going to make application I (ST the po
sition of football coach at Stanford Uni
versity." Dietz is one of the craftiest students
of the gridiron game in the country.
He played at Carlisle under Glen War
ner for a number of years. He came
to the Pacific Coast three years ago
and assumed full charge of gridiron
activities at Washington State College
with more than ordinary success. Last
season he tendered his resignation to
enter the moving-picture business and
organixed a company which put in a
studio at Spokane.
When the Mare Island Marines or
ganised their famous team this Fall,
Dietz was secured as coach and has
worked the aggregation into a very
formidable eleven. He ranks with the
best coaches in the country.

Frain left home Sunday morning

When the Marines line up against the

of players in the back field. Glover,
halfback, who hurt his shoulder in the
game with Vancouver Barracks last
Saturday, will not play against Camp
I-ewis tomorrow and Diets will shift
Bill Steers from fullback to right half
and put Uillis in at full. Steers is too
shifty and speedy for fullback, accord
ing to Dietx. and he figures that with
tiillis at full and Steers and Bangs
playing the halfback positions th
atrength of the backfield will be mater
ially increased.

EIS
VANCOUVER. BARRACKS HAS - A
WEEK OF REST.
Eleven Is Preparing for Game With
Camp Lewis Squad
December 7.
VANCOUVER BARRACKS. Wash..
Nov. 2. (Special.) Members of the
Vancouver Barracks football eleven will
. have an easy week, during which time
they .will begin for their fray with
Camp Lewis, which is scheduled to be
played on December 7. A scheduled
game between the soldiers and the
Navy Training Station team of Seattle
which was to have been played in Port
. land Saturday, has been cancelled at
tne request of the sailors.
The cancellation was due to a mixup
in the Sailors' dates for games and
gives the Post team members an extra
week in which to make ready for the
return game with Capt Cook's dough
boys. The Vancouver men invaded Camp
Lewis and returned with a victory even
though they entered the game minus
three star players. The"men are anxious
to score another victory against Lewis
as such a victory would make the Van
couver team the champion service team
of the Northwest.
Three Vancouver men are out of the
game temporarily due to injuries re
ceived in the MakMnes game.'Lieutenant
Zimmerman who played during a por
tion of the game, has a broken finger
as has Kolerus. the shifty left-half of
the Soldiers' eleven. Dumas, the scrappy
right half on the Army team, who was
ordered from the field for alleged
- roughness and was allowed to return
again in the second period, was the
most unfortunate member of the Van
couver eleven, having had his shoulder
blade broken in the last quarter of the
game, am tnese men are expected to
be in shape to enter the Lewis game
and in addition, several Btar players
who have been on the hospital list will
return into action this week.

CLATSKANIE. Or.. Nov. Ii. (Spe

ban athletics will be once more re
sumed at Ciatskanie High School, after
m. six weeks' layoff.
Owing to the lateness of the sea
son, football will be dropped and all
energies bent on basketball. A game
has already been scheduled for Thanks

alumni all-stars. Coach "Jazz" Kilert

Bill Rodgers, manager of the Sacra
ento baseball club, formerly captain
of the Portland Beavers, has signed up
to manage a baseball club in the Sacra
mento Winter league. Rodgers will
also act as captain and expects to add
a bunch of "raw-meaters to his team.
The Wallis Tractor nine will have
few celebrities on its lineup. Charlie
Pick, of the Chicago Cubs, is going to
play third base for the team. Rodgers
will hold down the second sack. Cliff
Darringer. a promising player, will
cavort at short. Rodgers has lines out
for several big-leaguers now working
in San Francisco and expects to cop the
pennant.
Eastern baseball writers continue to
make known their attitude towards the
j players who deserted baseball for the
shipyards as a method of doing their
"bit" in preference to joining the Army.
Almost every writer in the country
taking a fling at the boys, and it is
doubtful if any manager will take ,a
chance at signing players with a tinge
of "slackerism trailing their foot
steps. Professional ball players with
no dependents wbo sought the ship
yards as haven of safety during the
war are doomed.
Rod Murphy, who formerly cavorted
at third base for the Aberdeen, Spo
kane and Oakland clubs, is mingling
with his former acquaintances in Port'
land. Murphy is here with the United
States Marines' football team. He man
aged the Marines' baseball nine last sea
son and as soon as he receives his dis
charge from the "devil dogs" will make
ready for the coming baseball season,
Rod is anxious to manage the Port
land team.
HOCKEY TEAM IS UNLIKELY
PORTLAND HAS LITTLE CHANCE
OF GETTING INTO LEAGUE.
Meeting Will Be Held Soon in Van
couver to Arrange
Schedule.
Prospects .'of Portland entering the
Pacific Coaat Hockey Association
during the coming season are very
slim, according to word that is being
passed along the line in hockey cir
cles. Edgar Bryan, who has been the
man behind in hockey during the last
two years, will not again take up the
burden, it is stated on good authority.
Hockey has never been a losing
proposition in Portland, but what
money was made on the game was
used to carry on the ice. skating which
was a losing venture the last couple of
seasons.
It costs about $300 a week to run
the Ice Palace. This figure includes
only actual expenses and does not in
any way figure into the hockey end
of the business. Salaries of players,
together with traveling expenses, is a
fairly large item, but Portland has
always been a. big attraction on the
road and even at home has played to
good sized crowds.
Rumors have It that Manager Bryan
is ready to turn the big arena over
to any set of business men or even let
the .Patrick brothers, of Vancouver,
take over the Ice Palace and run it if
they desire.
Hockey could be made more popular
it is said and the ice skating end of
the proposition put on a paying basis
if experienced hockey people were to
assume the management of the lea
Palace.
A meeting will be held in Vancouver
shortly to take up the 'schedule for
the coming season, but it is doubtful
if Portland will be represented.
The Heilig Theater will be the
scene of the first boxing smoker to be

Dieted arrangements yesterday with
the theater management for possession
of the spacious showhouse which will
seat 2359 people when the stage is so
arranged as to hold 400 ringside seats.
The last boxing show held in the
Heilig Theater was-during the Elks'
convention in 1912. Switching . of
boxing bouts from the Ice Palace,
which is entirely without heat and
mighty cold during the Winter months.
to the Heilig Theater, which is one of
the biggest and most beautiful play
houses on the Pacific Coast will un
doubtedly mako a big hit with, fistic
followers. The central location of the
Heilig should add materially to the
attenda-nce.
The 400 stage scats, togethers with
logo seats, will sell at J2. The first 11
rows on the lower floor will sell at 2.
The balance of the lower floor and first
5 rows in balcony . will sell at
$1.50. . The rest of the balcony will
be $1. Scats yn the first two rows in
the gallery tvill be 75 cents and the
remainder of gallery will sell at 50
cents. The stage seats will be built
up the same as bleacher seats in the
Multnomah Club gymnasium. Stage
seats will be so arranged as. not to In
terfere with spectators sitting in the
box seats.

is going ahead With Tiis plans of
putting on the best fight card obtain
able under present conditions. Tommy
figures that with 1' rank Farmer pitted
against Jimmy Darcy and With Wing
and Gorman rematched, local -fight
followers are in for two stellar main
events. Tracey plans on arranging the
balance of his programme to fit in
nicely with his two main bouts.
When it comes to "pressagenting,"
nobody in the world has it on Bobby
Kvans, former Portland fight promoter,
who is giving .the Army a rare treat
under the cognomen of Corporal Ardiss
and is at present stationed at Camp
Mills. Bobby was already to walk up
the gangplank and journey overseas
for a confab with Kaiser Bill, but when
the big "bloke" of the Hohenzollerns
heard Evans and Lou Wagner, were
ready to start for the Rhine he called
off the b'g battle, which left these two
prominent gentlemen on this side of
the pond.
Wagner .planned on promoting a
couple-of boxing smokers in Germany
and wanted Evans as his matchmaker.
Of course each would be kept busy
watching the other the night of the
bout, but now that the sashay is off.
Evans is making-ready to return to the
scene of his former operations and re
new his activities in the boxing busi
ness. Evans has six hours of sleep every
dae in the week. The rest'of the time
he Is busy writing letters to various
sport writers about the country with
the result that each day Evans man

Bobby to outguess his fellow promoters.

DEATH REPORT CONFIRMED
RALPH J. HCRLBCRT KILLED IN
ACTION SEPTEMBER 29. '
t
Message Received by Widow From
Adjutant-General in Washington.
Washington the aggressor throughout
most of the four quarters. Washington
got the ball within Commerce's five
yard line in the second quarter, but
could not put it over. In the final
period Washington punted and re
covered the ball. On the next play
Johnny Jiaack, Washington right half,
passed the ball about 40 yards to Right
End Dolp, who raced ten yards to a
touchdown. Washington failed to con
vert a goal kick when the player hold
ing the ball touched it to the ground.
Commerce battled hard the remaining
minutes of the fourth-quarter and had
the ball within Washington's 15-yard
line several times, but could not make
any headway. Johnny Haak, smashed
through Commerce time and again for
big gains and played a great game.
Dolp, at right end, also attracted the
attention of the fans by teasing and
tackling the Commerce backs and
making several long runs. Robins also
looked good at left half. Haak laid
out several Commerce players who
tackled him. 1
.Penson, Johnson. Bastian Van Buren
and Anderson played a stellar game
for Commerce. The summary:
Post -Sea son Games to Be Played.
The post-season football season idea,
originally proposed in "big ten" con
ference circles, appeals to the athletic
management of the University of Ne
braska. Head Coach W. G. Kline Is
strongly in favor of booking the Husk
ers for a post-season contest, suggest
ing either Minnesota or Illinois as Ne
braska's opponent. "The squad is
ready to take on a Western representa
tive team In a post-season game, play

r.ow in France., with American troops,
informed a friend of Hurlburfs that
'Spec" had been killed on the field of
battle and buried in the Argonne for
est. ,
Mrs. . Hurlburt, wife of Lieutenant
Hurlburt, has been prostrated ever.
since first word of her husband's death

receipt of yesterday's telegram from
the Adjutant-General's office.

Portland Hunt Club Admits Women
Members to Annual Event.
The annual Thanksgiving Day open
paper chase, held by the members of

tober 30. Riders are requested to leave
the Portland Riding Academy not later
than 9:30 o'clock. .
Mrs. -W. H. Warrens and James
Nicol are. the hares and have planned
the start' of their trail near the -club
grounds at Garden Home at about 11
o'clock. The paper will be laid in such
ingenious ways that the familiar by
paths will become a hopeless maze of
blinds and main trails.
This event always calls out a large
number of spectators eager to see the
start, when the horses seem to enter
into the spirit of the game.
In previous yearsthe entry list has
been made up of men riders, but this
year, owing to the depletion in their
ranks caused by war service, women
will not lessen the strenuoueness of
the ride. The women have proven their
mettle in paper chaes. The name of
the winner of this event will be in
scribed on the club's trophy.
President Natt McDougall has in
vited all 'Army officers to take part in
the ride.

SMITH SELECTS ELEVEN I
CALIFORNIA COACH GIVE OCT
NAMES FOR "BIG BOOK."
Walter Camft Is Compiling Dala on
This Season's All-Star Grid
iron Teams.
Walter Camp, football authority
has asked Andy Smith, coach at the
University of California, for his selec
tion of all-star gridiron material for
the "big" book.- Smith picked a team,
but naturally hla choices will draw
much criticism. Four of the eleven
positions go to California. A like num
ber of Andy's selections are from the
Marines and three hail from the Math
er Field (aviation) eleven at Sacra
mento. Smith's selection would be hard to
beat, maybe, but nevertheless it is dif
ficult for Andy, who has not ventured
outside of Berkeley this season, to pick
an all-Pacific Coast aggregation.
There are any number of star players
among the service teams of the North
west who might cause Smith to change
his mind if he were to watch them in
action. Furthermore, with the grid
iron season only half way through,
due to influenza. It is not exactly fair
to select a team of all-Pacific Coast
stars until the end of the season.
Smith puts Jake Risley, Marine
center, in one of the guard positions
in order to put his own player, Barnes,
of California, at snapping the ball.
Risley never played guard in his foot

STANDIFER TO PLAY A It MY
Shipbuilders and 20th Truck Squad
ron Meet Tomorrow.
The Standifer shipyard eleven will
take on the 2!Uh truck squadron foot
ball team tomorrow afternoon on the
Standifer baseball grounds at Van
couver, starting at " o'clock. Fort
Stevens was angling for the game, but
the motor transport corps gridricrs beat
the down-river aggregation to it.
The Army team has a rather for
midable aggregation, and while they
have not won a majority of their con
tests, have always put up u rip-
snorting battle, and are anxious to
test their metal against the shipyard
eleven. Lieutenant Dean is preparing
the khaki-clad warriors for tomorrow's
battle, and promises the shipbuilders a
merry time.
Standifer has been resting up since
their last game, and will go into to
morrow's struggle with their regular
incup. Manager Turner of tho Standi
fer team expects a hard contest, and a
good-sized crowd will probably take in
the turkey day battle at Vancouver.

GAME
Challenge Issued to California
Hinges on Saturday's Score.
SEATTLE, Nov. 26. (Special.)--Cali
fornia and Washington may yet clash
on the football field this year, pro
vided the Washington team succeeds in
downing the strong Oregon aggrega
tion when they meet here Saturday on
University Field. A challenge was
sent last night to the California team
by Manager Jim Arhethonaut, provid
ing for a game In Berkeley on Decem
ber 7, to decide the intercollegiate
championship of the Coast, in case
Washington wins. Although California
has not yet replied, it is thought that
the matter hinges entirely on the result
of Saturday s game.
Meanwhile Coach Toney Savage is
putting his team through the stiffest
practice they have yet had. Behrens,
the California freshman, who is being
trained to fill the place of Red Owen
center, who was injured in the Aggie
game and is probably out for at least
week, is progressing slowly and
Savage is by no means satisfied with
his work, Loss of Owen Is still keenly
felt.
