What a thrill the Stanford follow
ers must have received when the
Cards scored first on California Sat
urday. Probably it (cave as much
gratification as victory. The Bears
finally triumphed, 42 to 7. The score
might have been a whole lot worse.
Oregon, O. A. C. Stanford and Cal
ifornia have completed their Pacific
coast conference schedule. Wash
ington and Washington State will
play their final conference game In
Seattle Thanksgiving day. Their
clash may be Oregon and the Aggies
over again. Washington has had a
sorry season, but what they might
do against their bitter enemies,
Washington State, Is a matter of
conjecture. Certainly Welch has by
far the better team and figures to
win by plenty.
Pens State to Be Played.
Oregon and Washington have post
season contests. California Is almost
a certainty to play a post-season
game, either at home. In Pasadena
or San Diego. It Is a known fact
that Andy Smith is none too anxious
to play at Pasadena New Year's day
and would much rather tackle one of
the big eastern elevens at an earlier
date at Berkeley.
Washington will play Penn State In
Seattle December 3, while Oregon
journeys to Hawaii for. a game
Christmas day. It Is likely Wash
ington State. Oregon Agricultural col
lege and Stanford will have had
enough football at the completion
of the conference schedule. At any
rate the coast may see at least three
east versus west struggles on this
slope before the moleskins are packed
In moth balls.
Harvard's 10-to-3 victory over
Tale Saturday was contrary to ex
pectations, although at several criti
cal times this season Harvard has
bucked up and played above form.
An instance of this was In its game
with Penn State. Bezdek's crew was
well along with their 21 points be
fore Harvard began its rally that
netted 21 points and tied the game.
However, after Harvard's loss to
Princeton and Yale's victory over the
Tigers, the Bulldog adherents could
see nothing but a victory over the
Crimson. Harvard's victory was an
other last-minute affair, all of its
scoring being registered in the fourth
quarter, when the game apparently
was lost.
Despite the loss. Yale remains one
of the best teams 'of the. east this
year. The wlndup of the season on
the Atlantic slope finds Penn State.
Cornell, Lafayette and Washington
and Jefferson the only undefeated
elevens Penn State had the tough
est schedule. The Navy and Yale loRt
one game each.
Lafayette closed with a brilliant
J8-to-8 victory over the formidable
Lehigh machine. Lehigh gave all of
its opponents a hard battle this sea
son, winning four and losing four.
Iowa romped through a clean-cut
reason In the Big Ten and capped the
climax with a 14-to-0 victory over
Northwestern. The latter team start
ed off at a slow pace, but the last
few weeks played good football.
Chicago came up from behind Sat
urday, scoring a 3-to-0 victory over
Wisconsin, which was more or less
of a surprise. Illinois sprung an
other suprise by trimming Ohio State,
7 to 0.
HEARS WIN' FOOTBALL TROPHY
Champions Last Year Retain Title
1y Defeating Stanford -
SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 20. First
olaimant of the Pacific coast confer
ence football championship trophy
cup, offered by Edgar Schawbacher,
Seattle, will be the University of Cal
ifornia team, 1920 champions, which
retained the title yesterday by de
feating Stanford university, 42 to 7.
California went through a hard
schedule this year, for the second
season in succession, without a de
feat. Washington State college and Stan
ford are tied for second place, with
the northerners favored to break the
deadlock when they meet the Uni
versity of Washington at Seattle
Thanksgiving day In the last confer
ence game of the year.
There were no upsets in the con
ference yesterday, California's victory
over Stanford and the tie game et
Kugene between Oregon Agricultural
college and the University of Oregon
not being unexpected.
Early In the season It was thought
the Oregon Aggies would defeat Ore

the state title, but the Aggie team,

IOWA BEST SCORING MACHINE
Eleven Champions of Western Con
ference and Middle West.
CHICAGO, Nov. 20. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) The University . of
Iowa football eleven, champions of
the western conference and of the
middle west, proved to be the best
scoring machine in the big ten this
season, but in defensive ability, Ohio
State, Wisconsin and Chicago sur
passed the title winners. -
The Hawkeyes crossed their oppo
nents' goal line in championship
games for 143 points, one of the high
est records made by a big ten team
since Michigan's "point - a - minute"
eleven years ago. Wisconsin was sec
ond In scoring, but the Badgers' total
was only 9. Ohio State was third
with 78, and Chicago fourth with 67.
On the defense, Ohio State kept its
goal line safe in every game but one.
Illinois alone crossed the Buckeye
line for seven points. This touch
down and goal was the only one
scored by Illinois In a big ten game
and kept Ohio State out of a tie with
Iowa for the championship.

PORTLAND HAS SEATTLE FANS
WONDERING WHAT IS NEXT
Copping of Baseball Prexy, Business Manager and Threat to Grab
Iron Duke Tough Stuff to Masticate.
BY ROYAL BROUGHAM.
SEATTLE, Wash., Nov. 20. (Spe
cial.) Some fine morning the Se
attle baseball fan expects to rub
his eyes, stroll out .on the boulevard
and behold the L. C. Smith building
removed from Its moorings and flitted
away to the city on the Willamette.
Portland has copped our baseball
president. It grabbed off the Indians'
business manager, and now threatens
to kidnap the Iron Duke, the sturdy
skipper of the Braves. Mr. Ball Fan
is wondering what Is going to be next.
Can a team which was trounced 72
to 3 come back ten' days later and
whip an eleven considered the second
strongest on the coast? That's what
the Sundodgers are trying to do, and
there are a lot t of youths here who
will wager their good dough that
Washington will win the Thanksgiv
ing day struggle with Pullman.
Bagshaw's team looks like the
champion in-and-out eleven of the
conference. One week they make
their supporters weep bitter tears and
murder the college pastime. And the
next they play real football. The
team looked formidable in the pre
conference games, and then the Ore
gon Aggies smeared them under a big
score. Baggy tame back and fought
the Stanford Cards off their feet, only
to be man-handled by California a
week later. v
Ye Washington fan, realising that
his team Is an in-and-out eleven, is
like the bashful lover and the daisy.
He takes the petals and picks them
one by one, somewhat In this manner:
"Montana, in; O. A. C, out; Stan
ford, in; California, out; Pullman, in;
hurrah! It's our turn to win Thanks
giving!" A football fan is a funny guy.
Being a main eventer in Seattle is a
dangerous proposition. The boxers of
this town are now suffering from an
epidemic of tin ears, fractured jaws
and sprained ankles. No less than
three main eventers are on the Red
Cross list, Eddie Pinkman,. Travie
Davis and Harry Eagles being the
trio, not to mention Frankie Rodgers,
George Wagner and a few others.
Clay Hite has billed an all-star card
for the Tuesday show, although the
stars are lacking in most of the
scraps.

WHEN A FELLER NEEDS A FRIEND.
F IS LITTLE
TITLE IS WON BY DECAPITAT
ING PETE HERMAN.
Two World's Records May Be Held
Before Retirement From Ring.
Flyweight Honors Captured.
Johnny Buff, the new bantam
champ. Is least known of any scrap
per outside of Johnny Wilson, who
has ever worn a crown. Of course
the fans within the confines of New
York and New Jersey know all about
Johnny and have seen him battle for
years. But the general mass of box
ing followers know little of the
Jersey skeeter, dubbed by his admir
ers "the mighty mite."
Although 31 years of age and a
ringman for more than ten years,
Buff did not spring Into any promi
nence until the game was reopened
in New York a year or so ago.
Buff fought his way Into the hearts
of the New York fans by bowling
over Abe Attel Goldstein, a popular
Gotham flyweight, in two rounds.
Goldstein, who is handled by Willie
Lewis, the ex-mlddleweight battler,
who developed Carpentier, looked
like championship timber until he
ran into Buff. Then Johnny took
Mickey Russell and several other
well-known American flyweights Into
camp.
Buff won the American flyweight
title by trimming Frankle Mason in a
20-round setto in New Orleans about
a year ago. Indian Russell, another
contender, lasted a couple of rounds
and Buff had a clear claim. Run
ning out of worthy opponents In the
mite division. Buff stepped up a
notch and began a vacuum cleaning
process through the bantamweight
ranks. He never faltered and capped
the climax a few months ago by
relieving Pete Herman of his worries
as bantamweight champion. Buff
bids fair to be one of the most popu
lar tltleholders of his class. He is a
real fighter, a stiff puncher," and a
very clever boxer as well. To date
weight, will meet Al Winters in the
top bout. Archie Stoy, the lightweight
from Aberdeen, boxes Joe Harrahan in
the second affair with Kid Billings of
Wisconsin meeting Al Biddle In the
third fight. Three other contests
round out the card.
A Jetter from Gil Doble the other
day brings word that the "Grand Old
Man" of Washington still has a soft
spot In his heart for the west. "
' The tall Scot admits that he likes
it better out here, although he says
not a thing about the possibility of
coming back to this country. Doble
knows that he -can make more money
In the east, which is probably why
he will stay back on the Atlantic
coast. But there are some draw
backs to hl3 Job at Cornell. The
scholastic requirements are so strict
that a football man has a difficult
time making the grade and play foot
ball. Then, too, the competition is
keener. Where Dobie had only one
or two real hard games here, he must
play a stiffer schedule in the east,
although this was not the case this
year. Next season things will be dif
ferent, and Cornell probably will
hook up with Penn State.
A game between Bezdek and Dobie
would occasion as much interest out
here as it wouid in the east. When
these two great men of western foot
ball get together, who would know
which team to bet on?
Al Demaree, the eminent cartoonist
of the Seattle team, is exerting every
effort to draw a salary as manager
of the Seattle club. Demaree realizes
that his pitching days are nearly o'er,
and he wants to break into the man
aging department of the game In the
worst way.
Al has gone so far as to get the
permission of Muggsy McGraw to put
the Seattle club on a working basis
with the Giants if he gets the job.
McGraw is a good friend of Dema
ree's, and always remembers his
friends. Al Is the man who recom
mended Bill Cunningham, and Will
iam baa more than lived up to ex
pectations. Demaree Is one of half a dozen men
being considered for the job here, but
Jim Boldt has dropped no bint as to
whom he favors. .
he had not side-stepped anyone and
says that he will continue to meet
all comers.
There has been considerable com
ment on the fact that Buff is 31
years old. It has been estimated that
a man who has reached that ae can
hardly stand the gaff incident to
ring battles with much younger
gladiators.
But there are plenty of exceptions
and. the new champion has always
led a clean life. He has never fallen
for the white lights and prefers his
own fireside. He has a wife and
three children, and Is known as a
home body.
The fact that he celebrated his vic
tory over Herman by rowing from
the Jersey shore the day after the
fight and fishing for crabs near the
Statue of Liberty shows that he is
not given to accentuating his vic
tories in ,a hectic manner.
It is within the possibilities that
Buff may hold two world's titles be
fore he retires from the squared cir
cle, a feat never accomplished by any
other boxer. Dixon and McGovern
held two titles each and Fitzsimmons
three, but not at the same time. Buff
at the present time holds the world's
bantamweight championship and the
American flyweight title.

SWIMS MAT REVOLT
ORGANIZATION PLANS UNDER
WAY IN CALIFORNIA.
Aquatic Followers Opposed to Way
Sport Is Handled by Ama
' teur Athletic Union.
BY WILLIAM UNMACK.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 20. (Spe
cial.) Around here there seems to be
a movement amonu swimmers to form
an organization of their own. It is
no secret that the swimmers general
ly in central California are opposed
to the handling of swimming as it
has been done in that section by the
local branch of the American Athletic
Union.
To what lengths the swimmers are
ready to go Is uncertain of course.
The Pacific association branch of the
American Athletic Union Is going to
take exception to such an organiza
tion if it decides to dictate the whys
and wherefores of amateur competi
tion. Some years ago a water polo asso
ciation was formed by swimmers of
central California and it worked ad
mirably. The polo association joined
the ranks of the American Athletic
Union branch and is still functioning
in polo and Is still a member of the
American Athletic Union and has con
trol over water polo. Just why the
union should not welcome a swim?
ming association under the same con
ditions is not known.
There Is no question but that a
swimming association composed of,
run by, governed by and promoted by
men who know swimming and are
swimming experts would be an ad
mirable method for the advancement
of the sport.
A break with the union Is not
wanted by the swimmers, but if the
swimming association is formed there
is every indication that it will be out
lawed. With all the bath houses ex
cept one favoring the new organiza
tion it looks as though the swimmers
have the best of the argument bo far.
The Los Angeles Motor Boat Racing
association has announced a winter
regatta to open on Sunday. December
4, with races every Sunday thereafter
for a month or more. Interest is be
ing taken in the regatta by motor
boat enthusiasts all along the racific
coast and it is probable that some of
the fastest hydroplanes and other
speed boats will participate. Dustin
Farnum, movie star, will enter his
boats. Joe Fellows, probably the best
known speed boat builder on the
coast, will enter several of his boats
bearing his name, while Frank Gar
butt, ex-preident of the Los Angeles
Athletic club, will drive his own boat.
Two different Sundays will be used
to decide the fastest boat. There will
be three classes free for all, 800 cubic
Inch displacement and a special class
with such speed burners as Hurri
cane, Fellows fourth. Rainbow third
and Cad Hill.
These three classes will race over
a mile straightaway, each boat to
have three trials each day, the fastest
mile made to win a special trophy and
the championship of southern Cali

PAL OF DEMPSEY
IS VISITOR CITY
Cyclone Bill Lyons Pictur
' esque Pug Figure.
AMUSING INCIDENT TOLD
Would-Be Fighter Has Kcarns
Guessing Until Champion Fells
Him Like an Ox.
BY DICK SHARP.
" Senator William C. (Cyclone Bill)
Lyons of Denver Is a Portland visitor
for a few days.
Anyone who has ever heard of Jack
Dempsey has heard of Lyons. Cyclone
Bill is rated as one of the most pic
turesque figures in political and
pugilistic affairs of America.
Lyons has been at the ringside of
every important battle since John L.
Sullivan whipped Paddy Ryan; Lyons
has been scrgeant-at-arms at every
democratic national convention almost
since the first day he voted. And
Lyons numbers among his pals and
most intimate friends every ring star
in 40 years of ring history, and every
political satellite since Grover Cleve
land's reign.
Name Is Byword.
Lyons' name is a by-word among
the fistic gentry. He has seen cham
pions come and go and has a speak
ing acquaintance with every reigning
title holder.
His best pal Is Jack Dempsey. Lyons
has been in Jack's company since the
time Dempsey began to train for his
fight with Jess Willard. A prized gift
Is a JIOO'O watch Dempsey gave him
last Christmas. The timepiece is a
wonder and contains 104 pennyweight
of platinum. It combines a regular
watch, a stop watch, registers min
utes and split seconds. On the other
end of his watch chain Lyons carries
a valued timepiece given him by
Freddie Welsh shortly after the lat
ter's fight with Charley White in
Denver.
Lyons on Way South.
Lyons left Dempsey n Spokane
night before last and Is headed for
Tla Juana for the opening of the
racing season in the Mexican city
Thanksgiving day. Lyons was forced
to Journey from Castle Rock to Port
land by automobile yesterday, owing
to the tleup In transportation result
ing from the rain and silver thaw.
Lyons served two terms as sen
ator In the Colorado state legislature
and has held many other elective of
fices in Colorado. He Is a marshal,
or a special policeman. Infcnrarly 200
cities In America. His pickets and
his trunk bulge with policing commis
sions and police badges. And Cyclone
Bill is never without his two shootln'
irons. Believe It or not, it Is1 so.
Dempaey Coming; December 12.
Lyons brought the word that Demp
Bey's theatrical tour will bring him
to Portland the week of December 12.
An amusing incident happened In
Butte, Mont., where Dempsey played
recently, he said. One night while
Dompsey was prepurlng to go on :
big fellow walked into the dressing
room without any Invitation and sat
down. He did not make himself
known or offer any comment until
Dempsoy was dressed In hia ring
togs. Suddenly the stranger came to
life and asked for a chance to box
Dempsey at the evening performance,
giving as his reason that he wanted
to gain some experience. Jack Kearnb
began to smell a rat. Perhaps H
was another Jack Monroe and Jl:n
Jeffries affair. At any rate, Kearns
was not taking any chances and trid
to stall the big fellow. However,
he was obstinate and insisted. At
last Kearns consented, but asked him
to wait until the next evening. The
next evening the would-be battler
was on hand. He Jumped into his
gym togs and began to shadow box.
He stripped like a champion and
stepped around nicely. Kearns gave
him a close once over again and. stl'l
thinking of Jack Monroe, cautioned
Dempsey to look out.
Fighters Take Stage.
They took the stage. The fighter's
name was Dick Martens. He made
a rush at Jack, swinging both hands.
He meant business. Dempsey took a
couple on the elbows, stepped back
and let drive a right. It caught
Martens" flush on the rhln and he was
foiled like an ox. Kearns motioned
for the curtain and another good man
had gone wrong. The moral Is: When
you are ambitious lay off a cham
pion. Lyons says that Kearns has nothing
definite for Dempsey but is open to
bids from any promoter In the world.
He does not think that either Harry
Wills or Tommy Gibbons would make
a mouthful for Dempsey.

CLAIM TO STATE TITLE IS
STRENGTHENED.
-
Result of Washington High School
Game With Everett Thanks
giving; Is Awaited.
Columbia university's victory over
the football eleven of Astoria high
school Saturday gives the preppers
as good a claim to the stato title as
any other high school In Oregon. Al
thougn Columbia did not play the
beefy Washington high eleven. Tort
land public school champion, the best
Fenstermachcr's men could do against
Astoria was to play It a scoreless tie.
Unless Washington can either tie or
defeat Everett (Wash) high school
on Thanksgiving day, when the two
schools meet at Everett, Columbia
can claim the Interscholastic cham
pionship of Oregon.
Fenstcrmacher, however, is not
worrying about Columbia's claim to
the championship. His team is In
for a greater stake and with only
three days left to practice, the Wash
ington eleven Is going through some
stiff work. The second tenm has been
using Everett's stylo of play against
the regulars and Washington's tackles
have received an extensive drill.
Wilson, Everett's Btar halfback,
made most of his yardago against
Columbia In the Columbia Everett
game hero recently on off tackle
bucks. It will be up to Mautz and
Llebo, who will play tho tackles, to
stop Wilson's assaults. Both Mautz
and Llcbo were named on the 1921
mythical all-star team, and Fenster
macher depends on them to do that
which the Columbia tackles failed to
accomplish.
Six of Washington's first cloven
received all-star berths. Fenster
macher is depending on those six to
carry his team to victory.
Captain Pete Brooks, all-star end,
may not start the game, however, as
ho broke his thumb while scrimmag
ing last week. Brooks has done some
wonderful work this year and as many
Everett Rains are made around end,
Fenstcrmacher will have a hard task
selecting a substitute for Brooks'
berth. f
Although the Forest Grovo hlh
school has won ail the games it
played this year, the school is not
claiming tho state championship.
After seeing the Columbia-Everett
contest Forest Grove's coach Is will
ing to roncrdo the championship to
the preppers.
Forest Grove's latest victim was
Hillsboro high school, which was de
feated 20 to 0 Friday at Forest Grove.
The winners used the straight style
cf football. Emmerson scored two of
Forest Grove's touchdowns ami Fanno
one. Lamb kicked two of the three
goals.
The football contest between the
Arleta Amateur Athletic club and
The Dalles American Legion eleven,
scheduled for Sunday, was called off
at the bist hour because of a storm.
Coach McKeown of Arleta will take
IS men with him to Astoria next Sun
day. Astoria is claiming tho inde
pendent championship of Oregon.
Among Astoria's victims are St. Johns
Bachelors eleven, Portland Independ
ent league champions.
