Coach Campbell's speedy backfield
of Frankfield hlg-h. working behind
a strong- and shifty lino and excellent
interference, walked over the Lincoln
high eleven yesterday afternoon on
Multnomah, field by a score of 34
to 14.
Shift plays, forward passes, triple
passes and an occasional smash
through the Cardinal line all helped
pile up the points for the Quakers.
Lincoln did not threaten during the
Same until the last five minutes of
the final quarter. This was when
Coach Campbell pulled his first team
off the field and sent in his entire
Becond squad. By some fast work
Captain Beck of the Lincoln team
scored two touchdowns in- the last
few minutes of play. .
Franklin Score Early.
Franklin commenced the scoring
early in the game when the game
had been in progress only a few min
utes. The Quakers took the ball on
the kickoff, and with a neat shift
Play first to one eirle of the line
and then, the other advanced to Lin
coln's ten-yard line! The Cardinal
line held. Hunt got off a good punt,
but did not bring his team out of
danger, for Franklin worked the ball
back to the shadows of the -goal
posts, where Bill Poison smashed
through, for the first score. .King
converted the goal kick. .
Just before the close of the first
quarter, when Franklin recovered a
fumble on Lincoln's 20-yard line,
Xing attempted a drop kick, but the
ball fell short of tbe goal pos.ts.
A ZO-yard pass. King to Poison,
netted the Quakers 30 yards in the
eecond session. The pass was re
sponsible for Franklin's second score,
for Hobson on the next play crossed
The goal line on an end run. Xing
failed to kick goal.
Hobson Makea Touchdown.
Hobson also carried the ball over
for the third score of the game,
w-hlch was made in the third quar
ter. King kicked goal. Bill Poison
crossed the Lincoln goal line twice
in the last quarter. King kicked
goal both times.
After the last Franklin score. Just
five minutes before the final whistle,
the Quakers' second team went in.
Lincoln took the ball on the kick
off. On the first play a triple pass,
with Captain Beck on the receiving
end. the Lincoln skipper dodged
through a broken field of 72 yards
for a touchdown. Thirkill kicked
goal. A little later Beck again gpt
away for a couple of long end runs,
which carried the ball to within strik
ing distance of the goal line. On
the next play he crossed the goal line
on an end run. Thirkill kicked goal.
Hobson, King and Poison were the
chief ground-gainers of the Quaker
eleven, with Kelley, Jones and Cap
tain Kingsley showing up well on
the line. For Lincoln Captain Beck,
with his all-around playing, was the
tar, with Addler putting up a great
defensive game at end.
Joe Kropp, Franklin end, injured
his shoulder and was taken from the
lineup early in the game.

CALIFORNIA-0. A C. GAME
EXPECTED TO BE CLASSIC
Chance of Conference Championship as Well as Contest at Pasadena
Declared to Be Dependent on Result.
BY L. H. GREGORY.
THIS University of California-Oregon
Agricultural college game
at Corvallis Saturday will be one
of the season's major football clashes
on the Pacific coast. Nothing short
of a chance at the conference cham
pionship and the resultant honor of
defending the west against the cham
pion of the east at Pasadena on New
Year's day hinges on it for both
elevens. It should be a bitter, hard
fought, spectacular battle.
. California takes her only trip Into
the northwest of the season to Play
this game. Taking one of the success
hints of Gilmour Dobie, no doubt, the
Californians have been singularly
astute in staging virtually all their
games en the campus at Berkeley.
None better than Iobie knew the
psychological advantage of meeting
the hard contenders on his home cam
pus before a cheering home crowd.
As a drawing card this game ought
to pack the athletic field at Corval
lis. Anyway, James J. Richardson,
manager of student activities at Ore
gon Agricultural college, is prepar
ing to handle a crowd of 10.000 to
15,000, r-nd he expects a good many
of them to come from Portland. Com
pletion of the first unit of the new
stsel grandstand has solved the prob
lem of seats.
This grandstand has 4000 seats, all
under cover. In addition, there are
about 6000 seats in the bleachers and
old stands, and 5000 more persons
can crowd in for standing j-oom.
Richardson expects this standing
room to be used, too.
Reports from Corvallis indicate
that most of Benton conuty will take
a holiday for the game. Farmers will
drive into town in the morning and
do their shopping, and make it a two
bird kill by attending the game in
the afternoon, when Corvallis mer
chants close their stores. A special
train, and perhaps two of them, will
come over from Eugene, bringing
townsfolk and students of the Uni
versity of Oregon to the number of
at least 2000. It will be one big day.
Richardson has left a batch of
choice grandstand seats for the game
at Spalding's store in Portland, where
the first comers will get ths best
places. California and O. A. C.
alumni are herewith reminded that
they had better make their reserva
tions early. Only BOO seats have been
set aside for advance sales in Port
land. Both the Southern Pacific and the
Oregon Electric are arranging o add
extra equipment to their regular
trains to handle the crowds from
Portland. No special trains have been
arranged as yet because of the fact
that the railroad people require some
organized movement before they will
put on specials. But they promise to
add enough extra cars . to .regular
trains to take care of any exodus to
Corvallis.
Persons bound for the game may
taice any of the following trains,
leaving Portland Saturday morning
and arriving in Corvallis in time for
the game:
Southern Pacific red electric via
Hillsboro, leaving Union depot at 7:10
a. m.. Stark street station at 7:15,
direct for Corvallis. ' '
Southern Pacific red electric via
Newberg, leaving Union depot at 7:35
a. m.. Stark street station 7:40, direct
for Corvallis.
Southern Pacific steam train, leav
ing Union depot at 8 a. m. for Albany,
where it will be necessary to change
cars for Corvallis.
Oregon electric, leaving North Bank
station at 8:30 a. m.. Tenth and Alder
streets five minutes later, due in
Corvallis at 11:35 a. m.
Oregon electric, leaving North Bank
station at 10:45 a. m.( Tenth and Alder
streets five minutes later, due in Cor
vallis at 1:50. As this train reaches
Corvallis only 25 minutes before the
the valley and create serious annoy
ance by trespassing into the very
yards of ranch homes. Orchardists
declare that their children and live
stock are not safe from the careless
hunters. Scores of automobile loads
of Portland hunters have visited here.

California is coming to Corvallis for
the game with Oregon Agricultural
college with eyes wide open. Naturally
the huge scores piled up in five pre
liminary games have given the Bears
a pretty good opinion of themselves.
But Coach Andy Smith, from all re
ports, is drumming into his men with
emphasis that they will find Oregon
Agricultural college vastly harder
than anything yet tackled. California
coaches have come to have a most re
spectful attitude" toward Northwest
football elevens.
Andy Smith has set his heart on
having' California play 'at Pasadena
New Year's day. If the Bears slip
against Oregon Agricultural college,
that as good as eliminates them,
so Smith isn't taking any unnecessary
chances. He is brinsrlnc- with him t
Corvallis for the combat with the Ag-.
b..o iewer man 29 players, which
is only four men shy of three full
teams. California Is especially strong
in second-string backfield strength.
.
The dope on this game unquestion
ably favors California. But don't be
come down-hearted too soon. Coach
Rutherford has developed a team that
will fight, and no fighting team is out
of it until the game is over. Few per
sons gave O. A. C. much of a chance
against the University of Washington
last week, yet the Aggies won by 3
to 0. And their winning, incidentially,
as good as read Washington out of
any possible chance for conference
honors.
Accompanied by Coach Shy Hunt
ington and Trainer Bill Hayward the
University of Oregon eleven left Eu
gene yesterday for Palo Alto. Cal., to
Play Stanford university Saturday.
Stanford h.s been kicked all over the
gridiron by nearly every team it has
played so far, though the Cardinals
did manage to win from Santa Clara,
21 o 7 last week. The trouble at
Stanford seems to be too much rugby.
California has managed at last to get
rugby out of her system, but it will
take another season or so to do the
trick for Stanford, which took up the
British game with more enthusiasm
than California ever displayed Tn
fact, with California rugby was moire
a case of playing something to fill in
the time than of going at it joyfully,
for after David Starr Jordan at Stan
ford laid down the law that there
would havn tn 1 . , -
- ----- -- ,J - " .7 nut rune,
California reluctantly Joined the party.
.
However, you must always hand it
to Stanford for spirit and sportsman
ship. Listen to this from the San
Francisco Chronicle, telling of the
welcome Stanford is planning to make
the Oregon boys feel right at home
"When the University of Oregon
eleven trots out on the field at Palo
Alto October 30 for the game with
Stanford, it will be greeted by a
roaring "Oskie" from a special section
of the stands. An "Oskie," be it under
stood. Is short for "Oskie Wow Wow!"
the battle cry to which warriors of
the Oregon institution have responded
and with which seething stands have
hurled out defiance to the foe for
decades. The special section of the
stands will hold California alumni of
the northern university, who will
gather from all parts of the state to
witness the contest.
"Letters appealing for the 'support
and attendance of every former stu
dent of 'Old Oregon' are being re
ceived by alumni in f-uifornia, and
indications point to a record crowd in
the Oregon section. Ernie Vosper,
former University of Oregon yell lead
er, will be on hand to lead the old
timers through the familiar war
cries."
burg last Saturday had played foot
ball more than four years. The state
ment was in reply to one issued Sun
day by Director Miller of Pittsburg
announcing that Pittsburg would play
no more games with Georgia Tech.
"Every man on the Georgia team,"
said Director Crenshaw's statement,
"had previously been ruled eligible
by the Southern Intercollegiate Ath
letic association."

Formal Statement Given Out
by Ball Club.
REDMOND- IS CROSSED
Charge of Having Given Team In
formation of Crookedness
Brings Forth Denial.
CHICAGO, Oct. 27. The Chicago
American league club, in a statement
tonight through its secretary, Harry
Grabiner, denied that Harry Red
mond or anyone else had given the
club positive evidence prior to the
grand. Jury baseball investigation
that Chicago players had "thrown"
games to Cincinnati in the . 1919
world's series.
The statement was in reply to re
ports that the club had been aware
of the game throwing and could have
taken action before the grand jury
began its investigation.
Redmond, who was brought here
by President Johnson of the Ameri
can league to testify, announced last
night that he had told the Jury he
had given President Comiskey of the
club positive evidence last winter
that the series was "fixed."
Club Denies Information.
"Redmond never gave anyone con
nected with the club any evidence
upon which the club could act." said
the statement. "The club was in
formed last winter, that Redmond had
lost heavily on the series and had
learned that games were thrown and
would be willing to give evidence
upon which the guilty persons could
be convicted if the club would make
good his losses.
"Manager Gleason and Norris
O'Neill infmediately went to St. Louis
to see Redmond and later he came to
Chicago at 'the club's request.
"Redmond could not. however, tell
anything definite. He had only ru
mors. His story seemed to be rerely
the hard luck yarn of a loser.
"The only person he could refer
the club to was Carl Zoark of St.
Louis. Zoark told the club he knew
nothing of any crooked work and
that Redmond was just a hard, loser.
Hearsay Reports Investigated.
"Every effort, however, was made
by the club to verify his hearsay re
ports and obtain evidence upon
which league action could be taken,
but none was obtained until after
the grand jury started its investiga
tion. "When rea? evidence of crookedness
was obtained, this club acted in a
manner which is well known and need
not be further referred to."
Officials in the state attorney's of
fice refused to verify Redmond's
statement that he had told the jury
he had given Comiskey "convincing
evidence" of series crookedness last
winter. ,
IDAHO READY FOR FRAY
Team "Will Enter Game in Strongest
Array This Year.
UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO. Moscow,
Oct. 27. (Special.) CJoach Tom Kel
ley is putting his men through
strenuous training in preparation for
the game with WhitimMi-.college at
Walla Walla Saturday. The Mission
aries are known to have one of the
strongest teams in their history, and
are centering all their efforts on the
Idaho game. As Idaho under un
favorable conditions has held both
Washington State and Oregon to low
scores, a victory over her would mean
much to the Walla Walla college.
From the present outlook Idaho
will face Whitman as strong as she
has been this year. No changes, in
the Idaho lineup are expected. "Babe"
Brown, a backfield candidate, who
made a creditable showing at end
in the Oregon game, has probably
cinched that position for the time
being, and unless injuries develop the
Irving - Whitcomb-Breshears - Bresh
ears combination will play the back
field. .

promises to be one of the best con
ference games scheduled this week
will be played at. Whitman Satur
day with the strong University of
Idaho football team, which has run
up close scores against the Univer
sity of Oregon and Washington State
college'. Both teams will have an
opportunity to even up old scores,
for Whitman has not defeated Idaho
since 1916. The following year Idaho
won from Whitman. No games have

Whitman has returned from Cald

Although some players were some

Stanford and the Multnomah club

KEARNS MAKES DEMANDS
Riokard Declares Offer From Cu
ban, Capitalists' Syndicate Is
Too Large to Refuse.
NEW YORK, Oct. 27. The fight
between Jack Dempsey and Georges
Carpentier for' the heavyweight
championship of the world twill be
held in Havana, Cuba. - it was an
nounced here tonight.
Selection of Havana as the scene
of the contest was made by Tex
Rickard, Charles B. Cochran and Wil
liam Brady, who stated they had re
ceived an offer of such immensity
from a syndicate of Cuban capitalists
that it was finally determined the
championship battle would be staged
in Havana.
Details of the match have been
agreed upon and the actual signing
of the articles of agreement merely
await the arrival of a representative
of the Cuban syndicate. He is ex
pected to reach here within a week
and upon his arrival definite an
nouncement of the date of the contest
will be made.
Three Promoters Confer.
The three promoters made the an
nouncement after, a lengthy confer
ence in W. A. Brady's office. None of
them would disclose the Identities of
the Cuban capitalists who bid suc
cessfully for the big battle.
"1 am perfectly satisfied with the
Havana arrangements," said Rickard,
"but I cannot disclose the identity of
the representative of the Cuban syn
dicate as yet. He fc.il! be here in a
week pr so and everything will be
announced upon his arrival. The Cu
ban capitalists have "made us an offer
which means' a safe guarantee for suc
cess for us and eliminates to a great
extent any chance of gambling on the
proposition."
Drnuda Are Made by Kearas,
Earlier in the day Jack Kearns.
rjempsey's manager, had declared that
unless certain arrangements regard
ing a bonded stakeholder 'were in
serted in the articles of agreement,
he would not sign them. Tonight, how
ever, Kearns came from the confer
ence room smiling and declared that
everything was satisfactory to iiim
and that the arrangement has his un
qualified approval.
Carpentier and his manager, Des
oamps, who were present, also signi
fied their satisfaction with the Cuban
offer. Dempsey, who arrived a little
later, said that if his manager was
pleased with the proposition he was
more than satisfied.
