CLEVELAND MAD WITH i
JOY OF SERIES
Players Given Reception

Public Park.
BIG CROWD' RUNS WILD

Slipped Away and Lights
Are Turned Out.
- CLEVELAND, O.. Oct. 13. Cleve
land tonight paid tribute to its world
champion baseoall team In a public
demonstration , In Wade park, at
tended by approximately 50,000 per
sons. So great was the enthusiasm
of the baseball crazy mob that it
finallv became uncontrollable and

lane aria vucany nnu ynjaivauj im
pressed its joy over the winning of
the world's series.
Special dotalln of police were
Ptr'.ess and not until long after
til lights had been put out and the
ball players had left, did the cele
bration end.
'.Thousands were unable to get rear
the scene of the demonstration,
i'reets for blocks around were
Jammed with thousands of automo
biles and a great mass of people anx
ious for a look at the athletes who
brought this city its first baseball
championship.
When the last speech had been
made the crowd refused to leave.
Instead it rushed through the ropes
and hundreds climbed on the stage
to shake hands with the athletes.
Babies were passed over shoulders
to be kissed, hats were smashed and
chairs shoved aside, but while many
persons were bruised, there were no
serious injuries.
The ball players were slipped out
the back of the stage, the lights were
turned out and lusty lunged men with
megaphones begged everyone to go
home. .
The Cleveland players voted to
Kive Walter Mails- and Joe Sewell,
who joined the club late in the sea
son, full shares in the split of the
world series receipts. One thousand
dollars each also was given to Sec
retary Walter McN'ichols of the
Cleveland club. Scout Jack McAllis
ter, Trainer Percy Smallwood.
Clroundkeeper Frank Van Delletr, and
Miss Edna Jamieson. chief clerk of
the club. Mrs. Kay Chapman, widow
of the player killed, already had been
voted a full share. Today's action
of the players reduced the share of
each to 13986.33.
Official Dinner Plannrd.
An official dinner 'tor the players
with city officials as hosts and every
cne in the blue book as guests, is an
other affair which probably will take
place in a day or two. Then there is
the matter of presents for all the
plavers and possibly a parade.
From the time little Joe Sewell
made his wonderful stop of Konetchy's
grounder, ending the series, and Tris
Speaker climbed into the stands to
kiss his gray-haired mother, Cleve
land has been in a furore. The name
of every player la on the lips of every
fan.
Coveleskie pitched himself into the
world series hall of fame by defeating
the Dodgers three times, and also
equaled some of the greatest pitching
feats in history. Only one man,
Christy Mathewson, has surpassed the
Clevelander's work in the biggest
( mcs in baseball. Mathewson pitched
three shut-out victories in 1905. Co
veleskie pitched three games, allow
ing two runs, 15 hits, walked only
two men, and what is most remarkable
of all. threw the sphere plateward for
an average of only 87 times each
game.
Bill Dineen, Urban Faber, Jack
Coombs, Babe Adams and Joe Wood
are the only other hurlers to win
three games in one world series.
President John Heydler of the Na
tional league and President B. B.
Johnson of the American league today
both expressed satisfaction over the
series.
Bent Team Won.
In letters sent today to President
Dunn and Manager Speaker, Mr. Hey
dler declared his belief that the best
team won. He referred at length to
the honesty of the series and the
sportsmanship in the Brooklyn club
letting Joe Sewell play and the Cleve
land club permitting Sheehan to get
in the line up when Jimmy Johnston
was hurt. Neither player was eligible.
The pitching superiority of Cleve
land's star flinging trio ia indicated
in the scores of the games. Backing
up Coveleskie's almost unparalleled
work, Walter Mails came throusrh
with 15 1-3 shutout innings, including
a three-hit game, and Jim Bagby
pitched two good contests.
The world series brought out some
of the greatest baseball in history.
Numerous records of minor importance
were broken, but standing above all
were Wambsganss' unassisted triple
play and Elmer Smith's home run
with the bases full.

OREGON GRADUATE MANAGER
BOOSTED FOR HALL OF FAME
31. F. McClain Smashes All Precedents by i Refusing to Weep Over
University's Footjball Prospects This Year Huntington Praised. -
f5Y L. H. GREGORY.
Hi
EREWITH is nominated for. a
ermanent cubbyhole in the hall
fame the name and person of
SI. F. McClain. graduate manager of
athletics at the University of Oregon.
In this age of frantic endeavor by the
universities of the land to outbull
each other in bear stories as to foot
ball prospects, it's a grand old com
fort, mates, to find one person con
nected with an institution of learning
in any capacity whatsoever, from
janitor to president and back, who
can see the faintest hope ahead ox
will admit it if he does see it.
Not that Mr. McClain is claiming
any championships for Oregon Just
yet. He'd have to be a super-optimist
to do that, with only four of last
vear's letter men around whom to
build a team. While in Portland yes-J
terday he said that Coach Shy Hunt
ington will have the hardest Job of
his life to whip his green men Into a
winning combination. He will, true
enough.
But at that point Mr. McClain, to
averrea. asserted, insisted ana ae-
clared that poor old, dear old Oregon
this year would be bicky to end the
season "within hailing distance of one
of the Southern Pacific's main line
freights.
Precedent la Broken.
Did Mr. McClain conform to cus
tom? Thank heaven, he did not.
Listen to this refreshing and cheerful
variation from accepted form:
"Oregon may' not win the champion-
ship, but she will try her hardest.
She may not defeat the University of
Washington for the third time In a
row, but she will give Washington an
awful battle. She may not win from
Oregon Agricultural college, but if
she doesn't it will be because the
agriculturists not only have a bet
ter team, but outplay and outfight
her besides.
"Whatever happens, Oregon will
have a fighting team. Oregon's pros
pects, true enough, are not of the
brightest this season, with only four
of last year's letter men in the line-'
up. But they might be a lot worse.
We have Shy Huntington, you know,
and Shy is a miracle man as a coach.
Already he has instilled the fighting
spirit into his raw men. The whole
university is behind Huntington. We
have the most implicit confidence in
him. And we know this: that if Shy
does not develop a championship team
out of the green material on hand, no
coach in the Pacific northwest or on
the Pacific coast or In the" United
States could do it.
"Huntington is quiet and he Is un
ostentatious. Probably that is why
he doesn't get the credit generally
that is coming to him for the cha.n
pionship teams he turned out for Ore
gon last year and the year before.
Scoffers Alvcaya Scoffing;.
When Oregon won in 1918 some
people said, 'Oh, Huntington was
ucky catching the other colleges in
war year. Look at the material
Bezdek left him. Wait till next year.'
And then, the next year, "Great Scott!
Bezdek trained a lot of those men.
But Just wait till Oregon meets Har-
ard. Well, Oregon did meet Har
vard. No comment necessary. -
"And now, after those two cham
ionship teams, there is still talk
down here In Portland to the effect
that 'no more Bezdek men are left on
the team and this season will show
whether Huntington and the grad
uate manager system will make good.
Great goodness, how many champion
ship teams does a man have to turn
out to make good! Two In a row
would seem to me to be evidence
nough. At Oregon there certainly is
no doubt about it. Huntington made
good two years ago.
"My hat is off to Bezdek as a won
derful coach, but with all due defer
ence to him, it is also off to Ilunt-
ngton as a wonderful coach an! that
REED VETERANS WIN
SOPHOMORES DEFEATED
rx
GRID COXTEST, 12 TO 0.
Neither Team Threatens to Score
Until Last Half When Seii
iors Show Speed.
The upperclassmen of Reed college
won their second interclass football
rrame from the sophomores yesterday,
12 to 0, which puts them in first place.
The field was wet and the playing by
both teams was slow, straight line
plunging being resorted to. Neither
earn threatened to score until tne
last half, although the sophomores
had the best of it the first half. The
last three minutes of play saw the
upperclassmen show their real worm,
On an off-tackle play on right end.
Kelly ran 30 yards for a touchdown.
The next score came unexpectedly.
The sophomores received the ball, but
failed to make yardage; they at
tempted to make a forward pass on
the fourth down, but Vincent inter
cepted the ball and raced to within
two yards of the goal. On the next
play Kelly again carried the ball
across. The upperclassmen failed to
kick goal either time. Kelly, Foley
and Houston were the stars for the
upperclassmen; while Riddle, Lind
strom. Kehrli and Malarkey were in
the limelight for the sophomores.

In a football game featured by
fumbles and blocked kicks, the Jef
ferson high eleven defeated James
John yesterday? on Multnomah field.
7 to 0. Rain, which fell during the
entire game, soon made the ball slip-
is the unanimous sentiment at Oregon.
Dobie left some fine material behind
him at Washington too, but they
didn't hapten to have a Shy Hunt
ington up there to capitalize on the
material." ,
The four letter men on the Oregon
team this year are Brick Leslie at
center, Billy RInehart at quarter,
playing for the first time since 1916;
Spike Leslie at left tackle and Mart
Howard at one of the ends. Accord
ing to McClain there is also a possi
bility that Everett Brandenbergr cap
tain and halfback on last season's
great eleven, may be available.
Brandenberg Injured a foot very se
verely In the summer and that may
prevent his playing, for he is still
quite lame.
Take seven first-trench men from
an eleven like Oregon's .t year and
any coach in the world, even if he had
the material of a Harvard or Yale
from which to draw, which Hunting
ton has not, would have a terrific task
cut out for him to fill their places.
Glance over these names and note t!r j
extent of Oregon's loss:
Big Bill Steers, whom even so astute
and exclusive a critic as Walter Camp
placed at halfback, on the third All
American eleven; the powerful Hollis
Huntington, who at fullback for Ore
gon tore off single-handed 163 yards
against Harvard at Pasadena, more
yardage than the entire Harvard ..earn
advanced the ball in scrimmage; little
"Skete" Manerud. the spectacular
quarter; Vincent Jacobberger at
half. Ken Bartlett at tackle. Baz Will
iams at guard and Stanley Anderson
at end. The departure of seven stars
of their caliber, and the number will
be eight if Brandenberg is unable to
play this season, would lave an aw
ful void in any team.
Oregon has quite a field of 'likely
candidates for the team, however.
Among them are Scotty Strachan
of Dufur. a 190-pounder, out for
guard, and Bart Laughlin of Marsh
field, trying for center. Both were
second-string men last season. Then
there are Hugh Claren and Neil Mor
fitt, a Texan and former second-string
man, out for ends; Francis Jacobber
ger, utility backfield man last year,
at half; George King, on the 1919
freshman eleven, at full; Rud Brown
at end, and the two Shields brothers,
both aspirants for the line.
One of the most promising of the
candidates is Frank Hill, a former
Eugene high school player, who is
playing half and doing the kicking.
He is said to be getting hi3 kicks
away well and to be achieving good
distance.
The big game at the University of
Oregon will be against the University
of .Washington at Eugene, November
13. This game will be the climax of
home-coming week at the university,
and many former students are ex
pected. There was a mighty crowd
of them at Eugene for homecoming
week last year, with the University
of Oregon-Oregon Agricultural col
lege game as the attraction.
Two days before the Oregon-Washington
game the Oregon freshmen
and the Oregon Agricultural college
freshmen will clash at Eugene. More
and more Importance is attaching to
this freshman clash each year. With
freshmen no longer permitted to play
on the varsity teams, under confer
ence rules, the coaches look to the
freshman elevens as their best de
velopers of new men for the year
after. About 60 men are on the fresh
man squad and the varsity squad has
about 50 men.
Oregon has no game scheduled foi
this coming Saturday, but her first
conference clash follows the Saturday
after against the University of Idaho.
, While Oregon is resting this week.
Oregon Agricultural college will be
playing the Multnomah club at Cor
vallis. pery and forward passing Impossible.
With both teams evenly matched
the first half settled'down to a punt
ins duel between Wilbur of Jefferson
and Bauer of James John, with the
blue and gold kicker having a little
the best of the argument. The only
thrill of the first period was a 45
yard run by Jonnson of James John
after he had picued up a fumble. He
was downed by Wilbur of Jefferson.
25 yards from the goal line. From
this point the Saints attempted a
prace kick which fell short of the
crossbar by several yards.
Jefferson pressed the Peninsula
eleven hard In the second quarter and
worked the pigskin to within 20 yards
of a touchdown where the ball was
lost on downs. James John attempted
to punt, but the kick was blocked.
Jefferson recovering on. the five-yard
line. The Democrats lacked punch to
shove the ball over for a touchdown
and before the half ended James John
had worked the ball into Jefferson's
territory.
Jefferson scored its lone touchdown
In the third quarter after a forward
pass, Palmore to McAnde, had netted
20 yards and placed the ball on the
Saints' 20-yard line. Line plunges
gained yardage for the blue and gold,
but James John held on Its one-yard
line for four downs.
Bauer dropped back to boot the ball
out of danger, but Jefferson's for
wards broke through, blocking the
kick, and McAnde fell on the ball
behind the goal line for a touchdown.

INQUIRY INTO COAST
BULL STARTS FRIDAY
Grand Jury to Make Investi
gation at Los Angeles.
SUBPENAS TO BE ISSUED
Players Xow in South to Be Held
for Testimony; McCarthy Asks
for Complete Probe.
- LOS ANGELES, Cal., Oct. 13. An In
vestigation of alleged corruption in
connection with games played in the
Pacific Coast Baseball league in the
last two seasons will begin here Fri
day of this week by the Los Angeles
county grand Jury.
That announcement was made late
today by W. C. Doran, chief deputy
district attorney, who said that in the
absence of Thomas Lee Woolwine, dis
trict attorney, the investigation wouta
be conducted by Doran and Raymond
I. Turney, another deputy.
While the inquiry will begin Friday,
the errand iurv will give its attention
only temporarily to that matter, with
the intention of resuming the investi
gation after other pending cases have
been disposed of, it was stated.
Players to Be Subpenaed.
It was deemed advisable, it was an
nounced, to subpena certain bail
players How In Los Angeles, who may
be out of the county and even out
of the state after the close of the
season next Sunday.
The Vernon and the Portland clubs)
are now playing nere, out no lmorma.-
tlon as to what players would be sum
moned before the grand Jury was
made public at the district attorney s
office, except that subpenas prob
ably would be issued tomorrow for
certain men whose names would be
supplied by league officials and who
were believed by the latter to have in
formation of value to the investiga
tors. Complete Inquiry Asked.
It was said the testimony to be
taken (Friday would be used in con
nection with that obtained later at the
resumption of the Investigation by the
grand jury.
Officials of the league and Griffith
Jones, attorney for W. Baker ("Babe")
Borton, former Vernon first baseman,
who made charges involving last
year's Tiger club and certain players
of other clubs, have asked for a grand
Jury investigation. W. H. McCarthy
of San . Francisco, president of the
league, 'telegraphed to James S. Ir
vine, foreman of the grand Jury, re
questing a complete Inquiry and offer
ing his assistance.
3 AFTER SECOND PLACE
SEATTLE, LOS AXGELES AXD
SAX FRAXCISCO HOLD STAGE.
Salt Lake Slipping From Position
and Interest In Leagne Now Is
Centered on Three Teams.
The final battle of the Pacific coast
league now is on. and while Vernon
will be acclaimed the champion of
this particular organization, there Is
a mighty interesting three-cornered
engagement going on between Se
attle. Los Angeles and San Francisco
for second, third and fourth places.
Naturally there Is considerable aver
sion on the part of any team to fin
ishing in fourth Instead ef second
place, and, as any one game won or
lost may make this difference, every
man is on his toes.
Salt Lake City, which, up to a short
time ago, was a fourth contestant for
these remaining honors, was elimi
nated entirely from the running by
Vernon fn the last series, and the
Salt Lakers seem destied to finish the
season as a second division team. The
Bees looked to be all the class In mid
season when they were leading the
league for week after week. Some
thing went wrong with the lubrica
tion and for practically two months
they have been gradually, almost im
perceptibly, but very surely slipping.
If anything were needed to insure
the final landing of Vernon in first
place, it would be the selection of
Portland to play against. The Beav
ers have been away off on their feed
and the" Tigers should find them
pretty soft picking.
BAKER LODGE GIVES SHOW
Boxing and Wrestling Boats Staged
at Meeting of Pjthians.
BAKER, Or., Oct. 13. (Special.)
Pythian knights from Haines, Rich
land and other nearby towns, were
entertained Monday night by the
Baker lodge at the first smoker of
the season.
"Daredevil" Cook and "Kid" -White
boxed four rounds to a draw.
The main event was a wrestling
match between "Butch" White and
"Sleuth" Burns. Burns won the first
fall in two minutes with a leg and
arm hold. White forced the police
man to his back seven minutes later
with a body scissors and arm .lock.
The winning fall also was secured
by White when the butcher secured
a head scissors. The last fall re
quired three minutes of fast work.

CLEVELAND, Oct. 13. Figures for
this year's world series, given
out today by John E. Bruce, secretary
of the national baseball commission,
show that neither tb attendance nor
the gate receipts were as great as In
last year's contests. They place the
1920 series well toward the top in
the records for all years, however.
The approximate figures for 1S10 and
1320 follow:

These figures vary slightly ' from
previous unofficial totals given out
and still are subject to correction.
Mr. Bruce said, as errors In check! n
may develop. The national commis
sion pointed out that the league and
club officials lost at least $100,000
because the series did not go nine
games, as the Brooklyn club already
had sold tickets to that amount for
the two unplayed games and will
have to refund the money.
Only In 1911. 1912, 1917 and 1919
were the attendance figures for the
series exceeded, while only in 1919
were the receipts greater than this
year.
seventeen world series now have
been played in modern baseball and
the total attendance was 2,431,579.
The total receipts were $4,766,935.

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 13. (Special.)
Well. well, our old friends the Bea
vers won a baseball brawl when
Hughie high-arched to Sailor Richard
Cox late this afternoon. Walter Henry
McCredie did a Steve Bodie off the
bench. Walter's gang had not won a
game for so long it was altogether too
much .for him. Harvey Ssuthenana,
the ghost-like guinea with the home
brew nickname, chucked the Rose
City lads to a 3-to-2 victory over
Bryon Houck, who started his pucn
iiir career as a collegian.
The score was 3 to 2.
Houck was weak in the first inning
and allowed three hits which the vis
itors converted into two runs, obtain
ing a lead they kept throughout the
game. Hyatt's batting was , feature
of the contest. He made two three-
base hits. Score:

Coast League Eace Xow Between
Seals, Angels and Tigers.
SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 13. Seattle
was eliminated from the pennant race
in the coast league by today's games,
leaving San Francisco and Los An
geles as Vernon's only rivals, both
having but a mathematical chance at
the bunting.
For either San Francisco or Los
Angeles to win it would be necessary
for Vernon to lose five games and
one of the clubs mentioned to win as
many. Vernon, 4i games ahead of
the Seals and the Engels. needs but
one victory to cinch the flag. The
teams have but five games to play.

Sport News and Comment.
f"ALIFORNIA'S rapidly growing list of
golf links is likely, in the very near fu
ture, to b augmented by two more. Sac
ramento is considering the building of an
18-hole municipal course at Del Paso park.
At presf-nt there are only nine holes, and
the proposed course would be located
nearer the city. At Bakersfield. the build-I
ing of a course is being taken under ad
visement by the Bakersfield club, an ex
clusive men's organization.
Reports from the world's series this year
are to the efi'ect that the spontaneous
noise making of the crowds is not so ap
parent. The spirit of the crowds is said to
be more subdued. The public l pror.c to
both forgive and forget, but it can't be ex
pected that it will forget the Chicago dis-
closures in a day. The fans who went
wild last year over what turned out to be
a frame-up must still remember that they
were taken in. It jars ones sensibili
ties and dignity to be made a "goat'' of.
What would a football season be without
the usual hard-luck stories of crippled men
emanating from the coaches? Santa
Clara college started the ball rolling by
cancelling a game because its entire siuad
was down with sore throats and fever.
Oregon Agricultural comes along and says
that Its casualty list amounts to one man
day. Shy Huntington, mentor of the
University of Washington, sadly waizs his
head and. wiping away a tear, says that
the prospects of his team are not any too
bright. I p at Walla Walla. Wash., Coach
R. V. Borleske is wearing a bantl of crepe
on his arm, ready for all the eventualities
which he mournfully but reluctantly fears
will hnppen to his eleven whenever it
shows Itself on a gridiron. To grave dig
ger nas a JoytuI, hilarious time compared
to the football coach.
m m m
Every college depends on the football
season to carry the financial burden of all
its other sports and it does. The gate
receipts are many times larger than the
receipts from all other sports combined.
Added to the cost of material the other
expenses are many times heavier. Salaries
for coaches, keeping the grounds In order
and other items soon run up a largo ac
count. "
"Babe" Ruth Is said to be in line to re
ceive $rw00 for taking part -in three exhi
bition games. This is considerable more
than Secretary of State Seward received
for turning the deal which gave the 1'nited
States Alaska from Russia. Of course, we
realize that Seward never clouted out 54
home runs in nn season.

There are five qualities informed men
now require in their shoes. Men instinc
tively look for these qualities. The shoe
that emphasizes any one of these five
qualities to the exclusion of any other one
is bound to be unsatisfactory. The shoe
that combines these five qualities in ex
actly the proper degree WEARS well,
has STYLE, combines every day COM
FORT with real PROTECTION against
slush and weather and provides all at the
right PRICE is the WASHINGTON
DRY SOX shoe.
Observe the cut-away diagram espe
cially note the materials used. These
have been selected for their stability and
long-wearing qualities; and they are put to
gether in such a craftsmanlike manner that the
protection they afford against weather, rain and
slush is practically perfect. They also have
snappy style and are down-right comfortable.
And these desirable qualities are all combined
at a price that makes Washington Dry Sox
Shoes most economical to buy.
Different lines of activity re
quire different kinds of shoes.
So the Washington ury box
Shoe is made in a number of
styles and weights. If you are
one of the growing number of
men who demand weather pro
tection when they buy shoes
if you want shoes with style and
comfort that will wear long
all at an economical price, take
the time to thoroughly examine
a pair of Washington Dry Sox
Shoes it will pay you that we
promise.

FIGHT CARD IfJ MAKING
BOBBY EVAXS TO PICK LAXG
FOED'S OPPOXEXT.
Lee Anderson and "Texas' Tate
Are Candidates for Contest
With Big Xegro.
Either Lee Anderson, negro light
heavyweight of San Francisco, or
"Texas' Tate, Fort Worth heavy
weight, will face Sam Langford, the
Boston tar baby. In the main event
of next Wednesday night's boxin?
card at the Heileg theater, under the
auspices of the Portland boxing com
mission. Matchmaker Bobby Evans will an
nounce which of the two will face
Langford today.
Lee Anderson is hailed by Cali
fornia boxinS scribes as one of the
most sensational scrappers that has
fought there in years. Anderson's
home is in the east and there was
some talk that Anderson was not his
riijht name, which made him a sort
of mystery battler. He began top
pling off the best men around the
bay region and handed out beatings
to AI Norton, Gunboat Smith, K. O.
Kruvosky and Jimmy Darcy, the
Portland boxer.
"Texas" Tate's biggest claim to
fame is a lone victory on a foul over
t red uIton. Those who have seen
him in action say that he is a fast
big fellow and an exceptionally clever
boxer.
Weldon Winpr, who mado a good
showing against Young Sam Lang
ford on the last card staged under
tho Portland boxinrj commission
regime, will be pitted against Al
Gruman, clever Los Angeles light
weight, in tho eighth round semi
windup. Grunan is a topnotchcr in
the south and possessor of an excel
lent record.
The two winners in the special
events of the last card will meet In the
top six-round special next Wednes
day night. Allie Taylor tangling
with Baby Blue. Taylor earned a
verdict over Johnny Coy two weeks
ago while BIuo defeated Frankia
Howard. Both boys made great
showings.
George Brandon, battling Portland
featherweight, will meet Eddie Gor
man of Oakland in the other six
round special event. Eddio is Joe
Gorman's younger brother and has
been winning regularity in his home
town. He boxed here several years
ago when Joe first camo to Portland
and won all of his starts.
One more match will complete the
card.
