Another interscholastlc football sea
son has passed Into history. Jefferson
high and Hill Military academy
clashed yesterday in the final game
of the season on Multnomah field,
with the Cadets coming out on top
?y a, score of 12 to 0.
Both teams were late in getting
started this season, but yesterday's
game found them at their best.it was
the Hill team's strong and sturdy
line, backed by a good secondary de
fense, that spelled defeat for Jeffer
son. Twice the blue and gold aggre
gation worked the ball to within five
yards of Hill's goal, but the Hill for
wards came through in fine shape
and kept their goal line from being
dented.
Forward Passes Used.
Several times the Cadets connected
forward passes that caught their op
ponents napping
Hill got off to a poor start by fum
bling the opening klckoff and allow
ing Jefferson to recover on the five
yard line.- The five-yard line was as
far as the blue and gold backs could
get. After Robinson had punted out
for Hill, Jefferson brought the ball
back to the 20-yard line, from where
Anderson attempted a drop-kick. The
ball hit one of the uprights and failed
to go over.
Touchdown Made In Second.
A pass, Goodrich to Robinson for
20 yards, started the cadets on their
way to a touchdown in the second
period. The pass placed the ball on
Jefferson's 22-yard line. Line plungeti
gained yardage for Hill twice and
placed the ball on the two-yard line,
where Goodrich after . two attempts
plowed through for the score. Heyder
failed to kick goal.
Hill opened up with a barrage of
passes In the third period which
finally resulted In another score.
Three passes from Goodrich, two re
ceived by A. Heyden and one by
Dewey, placed the ball on Jefferson's
25-yard . line. Another long spiral,
this time from the hand of Bobby
Robinson, was caught by Dewey, who
rushed across the goal line for the
final score. Goqdrich failed to kick
goal.
Jeffa Threaten Goal.
Jefferson threatened several times
during the final quarter. One of Jef
ferson's chances to score came just
after the start of the period, when
Robinson punted from his own five
yard line. It was the fourth down,
and as one of Hill's players touched
the ball just as it left Robinson's foot.
Referee Francis brought the ball back
and gave it to Jefferson where the
pigskin was touched by the Hill
player. In four attempts Jefferson
failed to make yardage and the ball
went to Hill. This time Robinson
got away a good kick.
Bobby Robinson again proved to
be a brilliant star for Hill, and along
with Goodrich, the Heyden brothers.
Dewey and Fersoneous, was largely
responsible for the cadets' victory.
Anderson and Wilbur in the Jeffer
son backfield and Jones, Higgins,
Bullen and McAndle on the line
showed to the best advantage for thf
losers.
The lineup and summary:
Hill (12). Jefferson (0).

RETURN PUNT, ONE OF GAME'S
BIG THRILLS, SEEMS LOST ART
Not Since Early in 1900, Days of Chester G. Murphy, Apostle of the
Unexpected, Have Coast Kickers Used Trick Effectively.
BY I H- GREGORY.
M -
-- and
TJCH has been said this year
about great punters the 60
d 70-yard Icicks of "Dink"
Templeton of Stanford, the long boots
of Eldon Jenne of Washington State
college, the high spirals of MorrisonJ
ana xsisDet oi uaiuornia. me siar
kicking of Bill Steers of Oregon.
They all deserve their laurels. But
how often have you seen of late
years, or even read of a man great
not only as a punter, but as a return
punter?
The return punt, well done. Is one
of the most spectacular plays In foot
ball. "Its great effectiveness lies in
Its unexpectedness. We have seen
games In which, a return punt at a
critical moment disorganized the
ther team and turned the whole tide
of battle. But the return punt seems
to have become a lost art. We know
of no football player of the present
who practices it.
One of the greatest quarterbacks
of all time in Pacific coast football
was Chester G. Murphy, no-r a' Port
land lawyer, but in his varsity days,
early in the 1900s, quarterback and
captain at Stanford university. Mur
phy was great at running through a
broken field, great as a field general,
great as a punter. Despite the fact
that he was light in thoso daya for
a football player, he could boot them
50. 60 and even 70 yards down the
field. And he also was a great return
punter.
After his graduation from Stanford
Murphy turned out for several sea
sons with the Multnomah Amateur
Athletic club football team. Football
then was largely a matter of mass
plays, of terrific line battering. The
first step toward the more open mod
ern play, the quarterback run, had
just been added to the game.
In those days the Multnomah club, I
always with a heavy team composed
mainly of ex-varsity stars, held tne
ndian sign on both the University or
Oregon and the Oregon Agricultural
college. The big game of the season
then was the annual Oregon-Multno
mah club clash on Multnomah field.
The university teams usually were
faster and better trained, but by the
nd of the game the superior weight
of Multnomah and the foxiness of the
Id stars generally would win.
We recall one of those ThanKsglv-
ng-day battles the year escapes us
in which Oregon unexpectedly began
rushing the clubmen off their feet.
Recollection is that they even scored
a touchdown. Anyway, things looked
black for the club.
Then came a moment when Murphy,
playing safety far back in his own
territory, caught a long Oregon punt.
He dodged one Oregon end, shook off
another and began running the ball
up the field. He ran It back a good
many yards. By then the Oregon
players were avalanching at him
thick and fast. He was plainly going
to be tackled. The obvious thing for
him to do, as the safety invariably
does nowadays, was to keep on until
downed. But Murphy was an apostle
of the unexpected. While on'the dead
run he suddenly KicKea tne Dan iu
or 50 yards down the field toward the
Oregon goal.
Naturally enough nobody was down
there. The players of both elevens
joined in a mad scramble to reach the
ball. When an'Oregan man recovered
he was flopped in his tracks. The
university lost close to half the
length of the field through the un
expected return kick.
That one play changed the aspect
of the game. It seemed to uncouple
something in the Oregon attack.
Multnomah eventually won in its' ac
customed manner.
This man Ervin Daily, who plays
left end on defense and halfback .on
offensive for the University of Wash
ington, is really a great football
player. He was the life of the Wash
ington team in the game against Ore
gon, won 17 to 0 by the latter at
Eugene, and was the only Washing
ton backfield man who could make
consistent gains. His fierce line
bucks were, reminiscent of the goad
old days at Washington of Muckle-
stone. Wee Coyle, Hap Miller, Cy
Noble and other celebrated backs of
the Dobie era. Moreover. Oregon
couldn't gain around his end of the
line. In the third quarter Daily took
a rap on the head and had to be led
out of the . game, though he fought
to stay in. And he returned to the
lineup in the fourth quarter.
One remarkable thing about Daily s
playing is that he is able to play-at
all. He is a married man and has two
children. Besides that, he works
every night of the week from 2 A. M.
to 9 A. M., Sundays included, as night
janitor for the Seattle police depart
ment. On top of all that he finds
time somehow to study and attend his
classes at the university and to play
football besides. A fellow with that
much determination is bound to be a
fighter.
m
Washington has a real battle ahead
of it against Dartmouth in the new
university stadium at Seattle next
Saturday. Dartmouth has one of the
classiest football elevens in the east.
After getting away to a poor start
against Bezdek's Pennsylvania State
eleven, which won 14 to 7, and losing
to Syracuse, 10 to 0, Dartmouth has
swept through the remainder of its
schedule without a defeat. Among
other teams it beat Cornell, coached
by Gil Dobie, formerly at Washing
ton. Too bad for the sake of the west
that Washington hasn't done better
this season. Of course Washington
hadn't a thought when it signed Dart
mouth for the dedicatory battle in
its new stadium that this game would
come at the windup of the most dis
astrous season in many years. How
ever, It should be a good game at that.
Washington has a good defense, but
lacKing saaiy in otlense. About
all the Northwest can hope for is
that Dartmouth is held to a low
score.
Gene Doyle has finally shoved off

The great major league "war" Is
over. That is to say, it never got
started. What is more, it never
would have gotten started. If the
rival factions in .the major leagues
hadn't compromised on Judge Landis,
they would have found some other
means of saving their faces.
From start to finish this so-called
"war" with its aibsurd plan for a
12-club league was a game of bluff.
It never was more than a joke, and
a poor Joke, at that. There was no
chance for a 12-club league to suc
ceed, and no one knew it better than
the men who, threatened to form a
12-club league. Once upon a time
a good many years ago the National
league was a 12-club affair. It broke
up for the very good reason that it
contained too many tail-end clubs.
There have to be four tail-enders
even In an 8-club organization, but
when two more are deliberately .add
ed to the list, making 11 clubs that
can't win the pennant, you have a
layout that will not keep up the in
terest of Mr. Fan. who provides that
necessary factor, the coin.
"What made this 12-club league proj
ect even more laughable was the
fact that it called for two clubs of
the same league In New York, and
two in Boston. We get away with
two clubs in one. Coast league town,
Los Angeles, camouflaging one of
them under the name of Vernon, be
cause we have to. It's a bush propo
sition, at best, and it would not have
been at best, but at worst, in New
York and Boston, where they have
been raised on two leagues.
As was predicted in this column,
the big bust-up ended in a compro
mise, which was the .only "wa;- it
could have ended short of disaster
for all hands. ' And it will be noted
that Uncle - Ban Johnson - keeps his
seat as president of the American
league. The whole purpose of the
war" was to side-stem Ban. but It
takes a smarter lot than most major
league magnates are to .do that little
trick. .
The net result is the annointment
of Judge Land is as the final word in
baseball, which probably will be a
good thing for the game; and consid
erable benefit to the minor leagues.
wno irom now on will have a one
third voice in baseball government,
where before they had none.

Trick Plays Are Practiced to Give
Visitors -Advantage Over
Husky Cornh-uskers.
LINCOLN, Neb.. Nov. 23. (Special.)
Gus Welch and his 18 husky Cou
gars arrived in Lincoln today, pre
pared to prove to middle western
football fans that the Pacific coast
turns out as good gridiron teams as
do the cornfed colleges. The west
erners came in at 1 P. M. from Den
ver via the. Rock Island road, spring
ing an unintentional surprise on the
Nebraskans, as local papers had an
nounced that they would arrive on
the Burlington. Consequently, it was
an haur before Hack Applequist. as
sistant coach and advance guard for
the Cougars, could locate his party
and get them installed at a hotel.
The team went right out to Ne
braska field, where Doc Boeliler re
peated the stiff calisthenics of yes
terday. Coach Welch then gave them
some dummy scrimmage, laying par
ticular stress on the execution of the
forward pass. New plays have been
devised to give the Tightweight Cou
gars, the edge over the beef of the
Cornhuskers.
Moe Sax, phenomenal open-field
runner and quarterback, has nursed
his sprained foot and ankle back into
shape again, and the Cougars will
enter the fray Thursday without
single disabled player. Jenne. right
half and best punter on the Cougar
squad, who was kept out of the Cali
fornia and Oregon Agricultural col
lege contests with a bruised leg, also
will be In shape to start,' although it
is probable that Ping Mclvor will
play at least the first half in that
position.
Following their defeat of the Mich
igan Aggies last week, 35 "to 7, an air
of over confidence seems to be the
rule in the Huskers' camp.

the Or-.-gon Agricultural oollege squad
on Multnomah- field at 2 P. M.
It is th first time this year that
one of the big conference elevens has
appeared in a game on the local grid-
Iron. Itwill not be, however, the
first time the clubmen and Aggies
have clashed this season. The two
teams' started off the season by tan

The- Aggies have naturally been
strengthened to a great extent since
the first game between the two elev

Harry Dorman of the club team has
been switching his players until he
at last believes he has a winning
combination.
It has been two weeks since Mult

the local field, but Coach Dorman
has not allowed his men to grow
stale in that time. Practice sessions
have been held on Sunday mornings
and two nights a-weeH. The Mult

Out of four games played this sea
son, Multnomah has won one, tied
one and lost two. The Oregon Ag
gies have won one, tied two and lost
two. The clubmen defeated Wlllam

Beavers won from the University of
Washington, tied with Multnomah
and the University of Oregon, and
lost to California and the Washington

LABOR BOARDS SOUGHT
RAILWAY- BROTHERHOODS
WANT COMMIlsSION-RETCRNED.
Reestablishcnent of Conditions as
When Under Government Con
. trol Asked by Workmen.
CLEVELAND; NoV. 23. Head3 of
the four big railway transportation
brotherhoods expect to be 'n Chicago
ext Monday to make a final appeal
to the railway labor board to re-es
tablish national boards of adjustment.
It was stated here tonight by broth-
rnood officials they will go to Chi
cago in the event of the failure of
representatives of the brotherhoods
now in Chicago to get the labor board
re-establish these ' boards of ad-
ustment. which existed during feder
al control.-- -
Adjustment boards No. 1. No. 2 and
No. 3 were terminated at the end of
the federal control and their exist-
nce, brotherhood officials state, are
necessary for the settlement of griev
ances that arise from time to time.
The four brotherhoods, backed by
2 railway labor organizations, are
seeking to have national commissions
created to adjust difficulties between
employers and railway workers of all
classes similar to the three boards in
effect under federal control.
W. G. Lee, president of the bro:her-
hood of railway , trainmen? said to
night that the brotherhoods had made
no plans beyond the possible confer
ence in Chicago, but that it the lt.bor
board refused to provide for the
boards of adjustment the brother
hoods would have to deal with the
railroads by the old methods prior to
government control.
The request by the brotherhoods.
according to Art. Lee, came from th
fact that the award of the labor
board handed down last July luas
been applied very unevenly.
