Columbia university smashed and
passed its way to a 49 to 21 victory
over the Lincoln High school eleven
yesterday afternoon on Multnomah,
field. The score is a peculiar one to
football. Where one aggregation
proves itself good enough to score 49
points over another it does not seem
reasonable that that other aggrega
tion would total up nearly half as
many points.
Lincoln gained its 21 markers in
the last half one touchdown in the
third qua'r and two in the final
session, with tnree successful tries
for goal by ThlrkiU netting the total.
The railsplitters made a valiant rally
but the overwhelming score of 49
points was too much to overcome.
Beck, Bowles and Adler were the re
deeming features of the losers' play
ing. Heck and Bowles caused Colum
bia plenty of worry throughout the
game while Adler made numerous
tackles and played an all-round good
Same.
Beck Scores Touchdowns.
Bill Beck, captain and right half of
the Lincoln team scored two of his
team's touchdowns both after receiv
ing forward passes from Bowles. A
pass from Beck to Adler was re
sponsible for the other score.
Left Half Stockton, Cudahy and
the two Dwyer brothers, Ed and
Tony, played in the limelight for Co
lumbia again yesterday with the
whole team playing an excellent
game behind them. Stockton as
usual was the brilliant satellite of
the contest, going through his regu
lar routine of scoring touchdowns,
making plenty of tackles, breaking
passing and punting and reeling off
big gains around end and straight
through. All this seems to be a
mere bagatelle for the husky Co
lumbia halfback.
The first quarter Columbia started
with a rush and when the sawdust
cleared had registered two touch
downs. Lincoln fought them at every
down but a series of delayed passes
and cross-bucks put the two over.
Kight Half Cudahy scored the first
touchdown while Fullback Kenny
crossed the goal line for the second
score. Stockton kicked goal after
both scores, in fact he kicked goal
seven times in seven trys during the
game.
Cudahy Scores Again.
Cudahv scored another triiiYAnri-
right off the bat in the second quar
ter. Lincoln received. A pass. Beck to
y?Adler. netted 30 yards. Lincoln tried
another one, which was , intercepted
by Tony Dwyer, who raced 35 yards
before he was downed. Stockton car
ried the ball over for touchdown and
kicked goal.
Columbia got the ball on Lincoln's
30-yard line and Stockton tried a drop
kick, but failed to make it good. The
half ended with the ball in Colum
bia's possession.
The second period had been under
way only two minutes when Stockton
went around right end for 15 vards
and a touchdown. He kicked goal.
Score, Columbia 35, Lincoln 0.
Columbia kicked off, Stockton loft
ing the pigskin. Beck caught the
ball and ran. it back 48 yards, putting
xne Dan on uoiumDias sa-yard line.
Bowles called for a forward pass.
Beck shooting the ball to Adler, who
got away from three Columbia play
ers and scored a touchdown. The pass
was about 20 yards, while Adler
dashed the 12 for score. Score, Co
lumbia 35, Lincoln 7.
Lincoln Holds Colombia.
Lincoln held Columbia to downs
and got the ball on its own one-yard
punted out. A series of plays put
Columbia within scoring distance
again and Stockton crossed the goal
line. He kicked goal.
Shortly after the start of the fourth
quarter Ed Dwyer intercepted a pass
and went 35 yards for touchdown,
Stockton again kicking goal. Score,
Columbia 49, Lincoln 7.
This was the extent of Columbia's
scoring for the afternoon, but where
they left off Lincoln took it up. A
pass, Bowles to Hunt, produced a
gain of 42- yards. Another pass,
Bowles to Beck, produced a touch
down. A few minutes later Beck took
another pass from Bowles and went
42 yards for. touchdown. '
The game was a nip-and-tuck af-
1B.IX- u. Liu luieresiins irom Eiari to
finish. As the result of yesterday's'
victory Columbia is now tied with
Washington for first honors in the
Interscholastic league, each team

this season. Washington and Colum

the undisputed championship on

BRITT-MORROW FIGHT DRAW
Twelve Fast Rounds Are Staged by
Featherweights at Lewlston.
LEWISTON. Idaho, Nov. 1. (Spe
cial.) Last night at the Temple the
ater before a crowd of 600 members
of the Elks' lodge, Frankie Britt and
Lakey Morrow fought 12 fast rounds
to a draw. Both are well-known
featherweights with the reputation
cf being at the top of their class.
Although . Britt yielded to Morrow
in aggressiveness for the first four

CALIFORNIA. PROVES ITSELF
REGULAR FOOTBALL TEAM
Victory Over Aggies at Corvallis Is No Fluke Despite Unfortunate
Fumble Which Gives Golden Bears Touchdown.
BT L. H. GREGORY.
LET there be no mistake about it
the University of California
has a real football eleven this
year. Its 17-to-7 victory over Ore
gon Agricultural college at Corvallis
Saturday was by no manner of means
a fluke, despite McKenna's unfortu
nate fumble of a punt on his own
5-yard line, which enabled the) Cali
fornians to recover the ball and shove
it over for their final touchdown, in
the last few minutes.
The Bears had an unmistakable
edge over the Oregon Aggies throughr
out the game. Twice in the first
quarter they brought the ball to with
in a few feet of the O. A. C. line be
fore getting across for their first
touchdown early in the second quar
Except for part, of the last quar
the Aggies, aided by a most
unczvftl Crt-MC nlay, obtained their
own touchdown, the Californians were
the aggressors all the time.
They played with a polish, a confi
dence and a snap that only can come
of experience and good coaching.
They were good on the offensive and
good also on the defensive. Their in
terference was machine-like. Erb at
quarter ran the' team with excellent
judgment and used the "criss-cross to
especial advantage.
So competent a judge as Plowden
Stott, who was quarterback at Stan
ford and . umpired Saturday, pro
nounces the California team a really
great eleven.
"They are fast and big and' they
know football," said Stott yesterday.
"I was impressed especially with their
knowledge of inside football. No
team can pick that up in a few weeks.'
It can only come of long and pains
taking coaching and experience in
playing together.
"Their blocking was wonderful and
if there was a fumble some Califor
nian was after the ball in a flash.
They knew the rules, too.
"But Oregon Agricultural college
has no reason to feel depressed at
the showing- its own team made. They
did splendidly, ail things considered,
and made a splendid rally there in
the fourth quarterwhen they fought
their way to a touchdown. The Ag
gie players have not had the experi
ence of the California menj many of
whom have been on the team two or
three years, but O. A. C. has a mighty
good eleven and it will be a lot bet
ter before the season is ended."
'
The big question now is whether
Washington State collegecan stop
the California attack and, while stop
ping it, slip over a score or two for
itself. Washington State is clearly
the class of the Pacific northwest,
this season, just as California is the
class of the south. In this respect the
dope has worked out perfectly. Their
game at Berkeley nefxt Saturday
should be a great football battle.
'The California players are looking
forward to this game with consider
able trepidation. When they got
word before leaving Corvallis Satur
day night for Berkeley of Washington
State's 31-to-0 victory over Univer
sity of Montana, which previously
had defeated University of Washing
ton 18 to 14, there were some long
faces on the squad. "Holy smoke!"
gasped one player. "Think of that,
would you! We have some game
ahead of us next week, some game!"
And "some game" seems to sum it
up. The foxy Gus Welch, after piling
up a safe ccore against Montana in
the first half at Pullman, took most
of his first-string men out of the
lineup to prevent possibility of in
juries and finished with virtually his
second team. His squad should be in
perfect condition for the game at
Berkeley.
One big advantage California has
had in its training a perfectly dry
turf field. At Corvallis Saturday the
field was what in the northwest is
considered fairly dry and fast, but the
California players were crabbing
about it all the time. They called it
"muddy." True, there was a good
deal of moisture under the thin
spreading of sawdust, but nothing
that a true northwesterner would call
muddy. "If we could only have played
them on our own turf field," mourned
Coach Andy Smith after the game.
He seemed to think the field had
slowed up his team's play consider
ably. Smith is banking a lot on his own
fast turf field next Saturday to give
him an edge over Washington State.
But the thing' may work, two ways.
Playing on an unaccustomedly fast
turf field at Pasadena last New Year's
day certainly didn't seem to handicap
the University of Oregon against Har
vard. California carried its dislike of the
condition of the field at Corvallis so
far that Graduate Manager Nichols,
acting on the complaint of Andy
Smith, lodged a bitter objection witf

college, against permitting the Aggie
rooters to serpentine on the field be-
tween halves. Richardson explained
jthet this i3 a custom in the North-
westand that never before had there
.been the slightest objection to it.
'.'The Cramping of all those feet

insisted Nichols. However, the ser

University of California, Washing
ton State college and Stanford uni
versity are the three undefeated
teams of the coast conference. Un

bats with preliminary teams before
upsetting all the dope and amazing
the whole Pacific coast Saturday by
trouncing Oregon 10 to 0. University
Of California played its first 'coast
conference game Saturday against
Oregon Agricultural college, while
Washington State has yet to tangle
in a coast conference game. Montana
and University of Idaho, both of
which the Pullmanites have defeated.
are in the Northwest conference only.
In fact, only three Pacific coast
conference games so far have been
played. Oregon Agricultural college
lhas been in two of them. The first
was Detween Oregon Agricultural col
lege and University of Washlngto-n,
the Aggies winning by 3 to 0. The
other two were Saturday's games In
which California defeated Oregon Ag
ricultural college and Stanford de
feated University of Oregon.
f
So, although Oregon and Oregon
Agricultural college seemingly are
eliminated so far as the coast con
ference championship and the Pasa
dena game are concerned, an upset
that would spill the old beans all
over the .place and make it anybody's
choice Is yet mathematically pos-
siDie, as they said when Vernon
needed only half a same to clinch the
pennant.
Just suppose, to be supposing, that
Washington State should defeat Cal
ifornia this Saturday, and that Stan
ford, upsetting the dope again, should
win from University of Washington
at Seattle; that Oregon Agricultural
college, which seems to have the In
dian sign on Pullman, should then turn
around and wipe up Washington State
and that University of Oregon should
ueicitL wasmngion; mac Oregon
should smear Oregon Agricultural
college, or vice versa at Corvallis, and
finally, that California should win
from Stanford in their annual
Thanksgiving day clash.
This would leave at least three
elevens in a three-cornered tie for
first place. From being the healthiest
par. of the United States it would
make the Pacific coast the unhealth
iest. The boys would be dropping off
from heart disease all over Wash
ington, Oregon and California. Though
it would be an undoubted boon to the
medical profession, such a com
plicated situation is highly improb
able. - It's mentioned merely to show
what might happen, not what is like

that the. selection for the Pasadena
game, whoever it may be. has onlv
begun to fight for that honor.
Some of his oldfriends slipped
over a little Halloween joke on Judge
W. W. McCredie, owner of the Port
land Beavers, that almost got the
judge in bad with his Irvington
neighbors. In the vicinity of his
home at 668 East Broadway it was
supposed for a time that he was try
ing to drum up a little law practice
in a section where divorce cases are
virtually unknown, but they have
calmed down now.
Some 30 years or so ago the judge,
then an ambitious young fellow not
long out of law school, came to Van
couver, Wash., and hung out his
shingle. As the years passed he ac
cumulated quit a practice. Finally
he was elected superior judge, and
later to congress. Not having any
more need for the shingle, naturally
he took it down. Someone evidently
grabbed it and put it by on the
shelf for a rainy day, which, figura
tively speaking, occurred Halloween
night.
The morning after Halloween the
judge's staid neighbors were amazed
to see tacked on his front porch a
sign that read: "W. W. McCredie,
Attorney-at-Law." It was the first
time they had ever caught the judge,
who still practices when the Beavers
aren't winning, which has been most
of the time lately, trying to get trade
from his neighbors. Finally the
judge got wise, and for the second
time in his lifa took down his
shingle.

James J. Richardson, manager of
student activities at Oregon Agricul
tural college, certainly knows how to
make it pleasant for visiting news
paper men. One result is that every
war correspondent goes away from
Corvallis glowing with praise f or his
treatment, and incidentally with a
mighty friendly feeling for the whole
agricultural college. When the cor
respondents reach .Corvallis they find
that Richardson has rooms at the
hotel reserved for them; sideline

OLYMPIC TRIALS TOLD
COMMITTEE BLAMES SUDDEN
CHAXGIXG OF PIoAXS.
Financial Handicaps and Shift of
Transports' Caused Outbreak
From Athletes.
NEW TORK. Nov. 1. The Ameri
can Olympic committee in a prelimi
nary statement replying to complaints
by some members of the Olympic
athletes regarding accommodation to
and frcfei Antwerp on the transport
Princess Matoika. today said that un
avoidable circumstances made im
possible better treament of the ath
letes. A more complete report of the
committee will be made December 4.
Financial handicaps and the sudden
shift from ..the expected use of the
transport Northern' Pacific were
given as factors in the unsatisfactory
treatment. "While, in the opinion of
the army and navy officers who are
members of the committee," the
statement said, "the conditions alike
as to food and quarters were at least
equal to those afforded our soldiers
and sailors during the war, they
were not what were expected by the
committee and were not desirable for
highly trained athletes fresh from
their tryouts and, final contests."
Conditions were better in Belgium,
the committee said.
"The committee also believed," the
statement continued, "that, however
far it may have fallen short of realiz
ing its ideals and the expectations
of the great American constituency
which it represented, the work and
conduct and -performance of trie
American athletes as a whole have,
in addition to maintaining the ath
letic supremacy of our own country,
served to foster and promote good
will and friendly feeling among the
nations represented and generally to
further the cause of physical educa
tion and healthful competition in
wholesome sports."
McKay and Sommers to Fight.
LEWISTON, Idaho. Nov. 1. (Spe
cial.) It was definitely announced
today that long-expected welter
weight match between Gordon McKay
and Al Sommers would take place on
November 9. Both men are top
notchers in the west and both have
appeared locally on former occasions.
Sommers recently won a hard match
with Harry Gillum and has followed
with other victories, while McKay has
the reputation of having gone 13
rounds with Mike ODowd, former
world's champion middleweight.

were victors Sunday in the Portland

Peninsula defeated Vancouver. 7 to 4,
at Vancouver, while the Multnomah
Guards dropped their game to Kerns
by the close score of 1 to 0.
The Canadian Veterans defeated
the Clan Wacleay before a good at
tendance of spectators. The Vets at
the outset brought pressure to bear
on their opponents and were unlucky
not to score in the opening minutes
of the game. Monopolizing the game,
however, Wilkinson finally scored a
goal on a nice pass from Enwright.
This proved to be the only goal scored
in the first half.
Crossing over, the Vets continued
to hammer their way through and
after after some pretty footwork on
the part of their forwards, Enwright
and Wright scored goals in quick
succession. It would be hard to sin
gle out the stars on the Veterans'
side, as all the boys played a good
game and their combination was ex
cellent. The Scotch boys were best
served at baek, their forwards not
putting up their usual game. The re
sult of this game puts the Veterans
at the head of the soccer league with
four points for two games, and from
all indications, they are going to be a
hard bunch to dislodge.
,
The Kerns soccer eleven won . a
hard-fought victory at Columbia park
over the Multnomah Guard kickers by
the narrow margin of 1 to 0. The
first half minute of the gameEugene
Webster, star center half of the
Guard sustained a badly twisted knee
and had to be taken home. His place
was then taken by Bragg, who
dropped to center half, leaving only
four forwards on the Guard lineup.
Thus handicapped and with only ten
men the Guardsmen held their oppo
nents scoreless until well into the
second half, when Billy Ferguson
booted through the only tally of the
game. The Kems outfit are a fast
and hard-kicking squad of young
huskies and at times they outran and
outkicked the Guard eleven, but with
a man short the Guards played a
dogged game and had hard lines in
not scoring upon two occasions.
Air of the Kerns players played a
fine game. They had a good defense
in Manager Sommers and Rankin and
two fast wing men in McCruige and
Taylor.
Of the Guards, Patrick kept a won
derful goal and is undoubtedly the
best custodian- in the city, while Jules
Webster at back was a veritable
stone wall of defense. Tommy Mur
ray, the popular ex-Rosebud goal
tender of international ice hockey
fame, played a splendid game at right
half. The lineups were:
Guards Patrick, goal; Jules Web
ster and Mansley, backs; Murray, E;.
Webster and Fairhurst, half backs;
Weinstone, Harry Langton, Powell,

Awarding of Gala Athletic Events
to Be Awarded This Month at
Zurich, Switzerland.
LOS ANGELKS, Cak, Nov. 1. Los
Angeles still has a splendid chance
to secure the Olympic games for 1924,
says Bob Weaver, president of the
Southern Pacific branch of the 'Ama
teur Athletic union, who returned
last week from New York, where he
spent two weeks on his return from
Antwerp, going over and checking
up the expenditures of the American
Olympic committee in this .country
and Europe.
The ma'ter will be decided at
Zurich, Switzerland, this month. Had
it come to a vote of the international
committee, which Weaver says ia in
ternational ir name only, during the
gathering in Antwerp, this city would
have secured the plum. Rome wants
the meet, and Rumania and Egypt
have put in bids for it, but Los
Angeles has the support of the lead
ing nations, according to Weaver.
Rome, however, is almost out of
the question. The heat there in the
summer time is unbearable, and a
meet held in the spring would not
attract the American college athletes,
because they couldn't get away.
Everything, of course, says Weaver,
depends on the city's putting across
the bond project for building a gi
gantic stadium on the Exposition
park site.
The local Amateur Athletic union
prexy was a very busy man abroad.
He had charge of the disbursement
of ail moneys in Belgium, totaling
the rather large sum of $73,299,90.
The huge part of this task was tolling
It out in the currency of five differ
ent natiois. During his spare mo
ments he acted as an official at the
games.
Besides this Weaver handled the
commissary department for the ath
letes who stayed in the Belgian
schoolhouse, and saw that they finally
had the proper food care after the
athletes raised such a howl about bad
conditions that the American Olympic
committee finally took cognizance of
the matter..
Concerning the criticism that the
American Olympic committee has re
ceived for its treatmenf of the ath
letes Weaver says some of it is de
served and much is not. He admits
that most of the trouble was trace
able to a failure to complete the prop
er arrangements before the athletes
sailed for Belgium. There was an
excuse for this, he says, because of
the prevailing war-time conditions.
The topnotchers traveled well to
Belgium on the Princess Matoika,
but the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh-place
men 'n the final tryouts
at the Harvard stadium had small.

Happier times, however, broke- for
the athletes who competed in the
post-Olympic meets at Colombes,
France, and then at the Queens club,
London.
Eastern newspapers in commenting
on these later meets declared that
Bob Weaver andi Jack Moakley han
dled the Paris and London teams most
admirably. . One scribe referred to
Weaver as a "born fixer from way

that Weaver is the only member of
the American Olympic committee who
has come in for one whit of praise for
his connection with the games in
Belgium.

so good that he has been mentioned
all over the country as the next
