13 THE MORNING OH EH ONI AN, TUESDAY. DECEMBER 6, 1021 STUDENTS SHOW THEY WIT BEZDEK BACK Varsity Town Cuts Loose in Ovation to ex-Coach. OFFER IS BELIEVED MADE Committee, However, Refuses to Commit Itself Decision Early as Possible in Month Assured. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eu irene. Or.. Dec. 6. (Special.) This varsity town cut loose today with a welcome for its old football coach. Hugo Bezdek, that must have warmed his heart. Students, faculty members and townsfolk united in the mightiest ovation that ever has teen tendered any personage here. For five hours Bezdek was the cen ter of a swirl of greeting that com pletely swept away any pretense at class work. He arrived at 12:30 o'clock, Just in time for lunch, and he departed again at E:S0 for Portland after perhaps the most strenuous five hours that even Hugo Bezdek ever passed. If there had been doubt in any per son's mind that Oregon wants Bezdek back again as her football coach and athletic director, It certainly was dis pelled by that welcome. Though members of the football committee declined to say tonight whether they had made an offer to Bezdek, it Is thought almost certain that a pro posal of some sort was made to him. The committee issued the following formal statement: "The football committee does not yet know what recommendation It will make to the executive council but it will make a recommendation of some sort as early as possible In De cember. Meanwhile the five mem bers of the committee have agreed to make no statement other than that they Intend to report to the council as soon as they possibly can and that they are working in entire har mony." The significance of this statement lies In the fact that what virtually amounts to an ultimatum to the coun cil has already been made by Coach Shy Huntington, who recently de manded that the, athletic council make known Its Intentions as to whether he is or is not to be the 1922 football coach, at Its meeting next Wednesday. Huntington let it be known that ho wished the thing settled one way or another before he left Eugene with the football team for Hawaii where Orcon plays games on Christmas and New Year's day. That ultimatum was made before anybody knew that Hugo Bezdek would be the guest of his old univer sity at so nearly the psychological moment. Bezdek had nothing what soever to do with the timeliness of his visit, for he came here today In response to the united invitation of l'n sident Campbell, student body and Eugene chamber of commerce. But It could not have been better suited to the psychological moment. Alumni members for the last week have made no secret of the fact that they want Bezdek to be brought back to Oregon to take up the football reins, and today's demonstration by students and people of Eugene was significant as an indication of how they feel about it. GATE RECEIPTS SHOW GAIN STA-M oi:i- 'AMI OI1XI.V QAMI DRAWS $210,000. Ilccelpts for Yale-Prlnccton Con test $2 10,000, Showing East and West Nearly Kqual. BY WILLIAM I'NMACK . The Pacific coast colleges, like col leges all over the country, have tasted the financial benefits from in creased gate receipts at football games this year. The season just closed has been remarkable for its Increase in gate receipts. This Is due to greater public Interest in college football and to greater sealing capacity. The California-Stanford contest at Palo Alto last month had receipts of 1210,00, a record never before made on this coast. It exceeds by 1135,000 the largest previous gate record, made In 1920, when California and Stanford played to a $75,000 house. . That 63,000 persons attended the California-Stanford game this year is explanation of the increase, for less than 30,000 at tended last year's game. Official figures for the ' Yale Princeton game this year at the Yale bowl show total receipts of $240,000, so that the coast colleges, with their larger stadiums, are now almost on a parity with eastern college In ability to handle big crowds and take in money near the quarter million dollar mark. Every college on the Faclflc coast has shown proportionate large In creases. TITis not only In the "big game" of the various coast sections, but In the preliminary games as well. California with its present field, able to acccommodato slightly less than 30,000 spectators, has packed the stands on several occasions, a thing that happened previously only in the California-Stanford games. Washing ton, with its new stadium at Seattle, has shown a big Increase in attend ance, and a consequent Increase In re ceipts In all games played. Oregon, the Oregon Aggies, Washington State and the University of Southern Cal ifornia also report increases. Stanford university, which ie some distance by train or automobile from San Francisco, never enjoyed the prosperity in preliminary games It did this season. Every university in the country depends on Its football season to carry on practically every other sport. The Increase In football receipts naturally gives colleges greater freedom and larger budgets to work on. Chtiney lioscs to Jacks. PHILADELPHIA. Dec. 5.

DEMPSEY AND HIS PRANCING BEAUTIES COMING NEXT WEEK Teddy Hayes, Secretary, Trainer and Advance Agent, Drops Into City to Say How Hard It Is to Find Sparring Partners. BY L. H. GREGORY. H AD a visit yesterday from Teddy Hayes, who called in to make sure the public doesn't forget that Jack Dempsey himself is com ing to the Pantages next week at the head of his own road show. Mr. Hayes says he Is Jack's secretary, trainer and advance agent for the show, all three In one. Some Job. Along with Jack comes his man ager. Jack Kearns. who engages the champion in several rounds of patter to open the act. Even that doesn't knock cut Dempsey, so he must be a real champ. Then comes a session of pictures showing the daily routine of the (-Damn in training camp what he eats, how exercises, how he sleeps and all that. According to Mr. Hayes tho pictures disprove the popular theory that Jack eats nails nnd dyna mite. His favorite food, on the con trary, is ham and eggs. Then comes what, of course. Is tho real sum and substance of tne act Jack dons Cghts and takes on a spar ring partner for three last rounds. "The show's going great, positively. absolutely great, remarked Mr Hayes. "We're packing 'em in every where. You'd think the life of a trainer, secretary and advance man would be one sweet song of bliss But it ain't. Do you see these gray hairs? Yes? Well. I didn't have 'em when this show started. But I have 'em now, you bet. Yes, and I'm get ting grayer every day. Why? Well, I'll tell you why because 1 have to keep Jack supplied with sparring part ne is, and believe me, its one tough Job. "The supply of 'em ain't anywhere near up to the demand. Jack's so doggone rough with the boys. Now mind, he don't mean to be rough, but when he gets there in the ring he can't restrain himself, and bam! First thing you know, down goes a spar ring partner. It's tough, 1 tell you. because when one goes out I have to dig up another. "Jack is using 16 ounce gloves, too, specially made for him so he will be easy on the boys, but still he knocks 'em. He rammed old Denver Ed- Mar tin one at Vancouver, B. C, a couple of nights ago that busted a couple of his ribs. Now Ed says he thought he was supposed to box a human being, not no pile driver. "Jack boxes three one and one-half minute rounds in his exhibition, and take It from me, that's plenty long enough for the sparring partners. He has three of them traveling with him, Denver Ed, Larry Wood and a fellow named Bethel. They take turns on the receiving end but now Ed Is out of it for a couple of weeks and Larry Wood is Just getting over being cuffed for a goal, and that puts a lot of work up to Bethel. 1 don't know whether that boy 'will hold out or not." According to Tratner-Seeretary-Ad- vance Agent Hayes, Jack also offers to meet any ambitious youth who wants to take a chance in three rounds following the main exhibition, but he isn't putting jip any fat prizes to the lad who manages to stick. The glory of it Is the cole reward. Jack isn't taking any chances. You see," added Mr. Hayes, "some of these fellows are tough, awful tough, and there's nothing they'd like better than to slip one over on the champion. Now up at Butte there was a big miner named Maynard or Minor or something comes ip and says he'd like to try a spasm with the champ. Jack obliges him and then what does this guy do but begin swinging from the hips and trying to land one on Jack for the count. "Well, that wouldn't do at all. so Jack springs into action and knocks lilm cold. It was one mess of wildcats while It lasted, but a crack on the button ended it. And the next night, what do you think? Why, this guy comes up and tells Kearns that Jack was mighty lucky to of landed that punch when he did or there'd of been a new champion in the land. "Then at Seattle the other night cur supply of sparring partners had run so low that I went out and dug bp a guy named young Hector, who once stuck with Jack for nine rounds. Sure. Hector wag willing. Before he went on be winks at s stage hand and tells him that he should watch rlose because he'd see a new cham pion made that night. And Instead of sparring nice and pretty, why. ting! He plants one on Jack and 'hen another, and they weren't love pats, take It from me "Well. Jack had to stop that or he might of taken a swing too many. So he biffs Hector and knocks him fown, and then he pulls him up and tiffs him again, and repeats. He wouldn't let him quit then, but held him up through the whole three rounds, giving him a real punching lesson." Quoting still from the' Informative Mr. Hayes. Jack neither smokes nor drinks, and he keeps in perfect trim ail the time. He boxes nine rounds rn weekdays. 12 rounds on Saturdays snd 15 rounds on Sundays, which is three rounds tor each show and a grand total of 72 rounds a week. And ts Mr. Hayes remarks: "That ought tc keep him In condition, what?" Still, it doesn't seem to keep the sparring partners in condition. Jack's act is only one section of 1 is road show, which contains danc ing beauties and nth-" numbers a whole road show and week's bill in itself. But Jack, so to speak, is the punoA of the show. A story has been going the rounds that California has demanded a guarantee of $48,000 to play Wash ington end Jefferson at Pasadena New Year's day. Paul Lowry. wrlt irg in the Los Angeles Times, flatly contradicts this. "California, as everyone well knew, will represent the west." he writes. "The invitations to Berkeley, Cal., and Washington, Pa., were sent yesterday (December 1) following a conference hetween Lute Nichols. California graduate manager, and the Tourna ment of Roses association. W. F. Creller. chairman of the athletic com mittee, announced last night that the 'uvitations to the annual party had cecii dispatched. "Also It was stated by Creller that absolutely no" controversy had de veloped between the tournament com mittee and California over an alleged guarantee of $48,000 which It was said Nichols demanded of the associa tion for California's appearance. "The tournament folks are giving no such guarantee, wero never asked tor it. and the contest will be played under the same uniformly successful condition's which have governed It In tl.e past. The New Year's game has never been placed on the professional basis, the basic idea being to per petuate all the finer traditions of college football." - Washington and Jefferson, which will represent the east at Pasadena, isfc't much known here in the west. The college is situated at Washing ton. Pa, and tho Washington and Jefferson eleven has defeated this season the teams of Bucknell, West Virginia. Bethany. Wesleyan, Carnegie Tech, Lehigh. Syracuse, Pittsburg and Detroit. Gieasy Neale Is the Washington and Jefferson coach and his boys have scored a total of 222 points against 33. Graotland Rice, writing in the New Tork Tribune, rates Penn State as the leading eastern eleven this sea son. but Tiny Maxwell of the Phila delphia Evening Public Ledger dl videa the honors between Cornell. Lafayette and Washington and Jef- rerson, anj declares that the team which wins at Pasadena should nave a clear claim to the national title s a "I never was run so hard in my life as in the first half of that Pcnn State-University of Washington foot ball game in Seattle Saturday," ds clared Sam Dolan of Corvallls, who refereed the game. "I thought I was In pretty good condition, but my tongue was hanging out at the end of tho half. Never In my life have I seen plays run off with such speed as Bezdek's men used. Mortal men couldn't play faster. "Before the game Plowden Stott. who umpired, remarked to mo that we'd speed 'em up between touch downs, but his feet were dragging, too, before the game went very far. Killlnger of Penn State has a peculiar way of kicking goals. Instead of Just tapping the ball over the bar with his foot, he puts everything he has Into the kick. Well, poor Plow den was behind the posts to Judge the kick, and once Killlnger booted so hard that the ball went about SO yards. Stott had to run after it and retrieve it, and after all the running he had been doing In the game, he could hardly walk when be got back. "It was a remarkably clean game, and Bezdek has a wonderful set of backfleld men. I never saw a better quartet of backs, and this Killlnger certainly is an Ail-American quarter." 3 EX-CHAMPIOXS TO FIGHT One Newly-Crowned King to Bat tle in New York This Week. NEW YORK, Dec. 5.

ATHLETIC DIRECTOR UNIVERSITY SCHEME Plan to Reorganize Sports Revived by Students. HUNTINGTON MAY RETIRE Under New Arrangement Football Coach 'Would Be Combined With Duties of Chief Mentor. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene. Dec. 5. (Special.) Whether the plans made when the new school of physical education was organized will be carried out this year or again postponed depends on thaction of the executive council, which is to se lect a head football coach for next year at a meeting Wednesday night. If the plan to have a director of athletics is adopted it is probable that Shy Huntington, present head coach, will not be retained lor an other year. The outline for the school of phys ical education when that school was put on Its present basis a few years ago provided for two main divisions. Over each of these divisions, one of which was the physical education de partment for men and the other the athletic department. It was planned to install an administrative executivs who would be a specialist in his de partment. The plan for the physical education department was put in operatisn this year, when Harry "A, Scott, professor of Columbia univer sity of New York, accepted the posi tion. Athletics Without Director. The present organisation In this de partment is working out very satis factorily. Under Professor Scott a corps of able Instructors Is carrying out the programme of study and ex ercise then outlined. But as yet the athletic department is without an executive. This is due partly to the fact that lack of money in the school of physical education apportionment has not permitted the carrying out of the plan, and partly to the fact that a suitable man to handle the position has not appeared. The coaches In all the major sports activities would fall under the head of the athletic department and be governed by the director of athletics under the plan. These coaches in clude Bill Hayward. trainer and track coach; Shy Huntington, head coach of football, who has two assistants; George M. Bottler, basketball and baseball coach, and the two coaches of freshmen football. Sporla Vol Self-Snpportinic. The athletic department develops all the teams that take part In inter collegiate competition, and the funds, which are supplied by the gate re ceipts in these contests, revert to the treasury of the associated students. However, all the coaches cannot be paid by the associated students, be cause this total of receipts will not at present warrant such an expendi ture. Because, sports are not self-supporting, the university pays part of some of the salaries to coaches, and even pays the total salary of some of them. The associated students then fix the salary through their executive council and draw up the contracts with the coaches at the figures they believe they can meet. At present this dividing line is not entirely clear, and it has been sug gested by the supporters of the new plan that the definite proportion to be paid by each be decided so as to eliminate confusion in drawing up the contracts. Prominent Man la Wanted. With the time near for election of a football head coach, it has been urged on the university that it adopt and put in operation the plan for an athletic director by obtaining a di rector now who likewise could ful fill the duties of the head football coach, and of some other major activity. It Is contended by support ers of the plan that obtaining a man of nation-wide repute who could WHEN A FELLER NEEDS A FRIEND. Jjlllt You doin't YAn) a DRINK AT ALL YOU JU3T WVNT TO PLAV WiTH THIS FOUNTaim- km.., i nana. riUKKi UK . handle this position adequately a man. for example, like Hugo Beidek would be a capital Investment for the university and the associated students. X Naturally It will be neccAary to pay a high salary to such a man, but, on-the other hand such a man would give the opportunity to prospective athletes to receive training under s specialist, which would grestly In crease the efficiency of the depart ment. 0 Paying; Proposition Kxpected. And that it would likewise be a paying proposition for the associated students to get a football coach of such prominence that fans would flock to the games to see the handi work of the coach in the team Is certain. This question Is causing consider able agitation at present. If the executive council at Its session Wednesday night decides to re-elect Coach Huntington, It will mean that the university does not feel ready to take up the athletic director plan now. Married and Single Soccer Men Play to Tie. Both Sides Fall to Win Bets and Have to Bay Own Dinners. BY DICK SHARP. THE married and single members of the Peninsula soccer team got lnrb an argument last week as to which of them were the better play ers. It got so hot that they decided to play it out. So r. game was ar ranged for last Sunday on the Co lumbia park grounds between the bachelors and the benedicts, the losers to pay for a turkey dinner. The question of supremacy is still unsettled, as the game ended in a 2 to 2f tie. The hungry players of both teams paid for their own dinner. The first half was fast. The players had difficulty In keeping th,elr feet on the slippery turf. The married men were first to score, Wrlghfdrlv Ing the ball between the goal posts shortly before half time was called A minute before half time Tommy Thompson evened It up with a goal for the single soccerites. The singles scored early In the sec ond half after some fast exchanges. when Tommy Gray kicked the goal. Twenty minutes later William Gray came to the bat for the married out fit with a well-placed shot. Another game will he played to de cide who pays for the dinner.

CUSS OF FIGHTERS ONGUSTSSMIUI Little Difference Is Noted Be tween East and West. VARIANCE SEEN IN STYLE Freddie Williams Says Sectional Methods Are Prominent When Soccers Invade Territory. BY DICK SHARP. A lot has bean said pro and con about tho class of the average boxers of the east and those of the western slope. ' What Portland boxing fans have seen of the eastern species hasn't been much to brag about. On the other hand, numerous coast scrap pers now fighting on the Atlantic seaboard are meeting great success. One who has seen the maulers of both sections in action is in the best position to make the comparison. Freddie Williams, the Boston feather weight, who fights In the main go at the Armory tonight, as good a mitt man as has invaded these climes. Is smarter than the average boy who earns his living by thumping with his fists. Williams Is observing; he has hopes of some day accomplishing more than knocking an opponent out, and he doesn't mix with the hoi pollol of the game. Little Difference Noted. Williams has been on tho coast long enough to get a pretty good Impression as to the class of average boxer out this way. Likewise, he has fought in the main fistic centers of the east. The writer queried Freddie yesterday as to just what he thought of the two groups of boxers. Will iams replied thus: "To tell the truth. I can't see where there la much difference In the class of the boxers in the east and the west. Of course, the fighters In each section of the country have their in dividual styles and peculiarities, but as v toe-to-toe class, there isn't even a hairline, In my opinion. "These are more, fighters In the east, because there are more places to fight. But take six preliminary boys on a card in Boston, Philadel phia or New ork and pit them against six of the average prelim inary boys in -Portland, Los Angeles or Seattle and It would be nip and tuck for the decisions. Style of Boxlnir ChanRea. "As 1 have said, the only notice able difference is in the styles In various cities and sections. In Boston we all try to pattern after suoh boxers as Joe Egan and other clever mittmen. Naturally most of the lios ton fighters strive for cleverness in their fights. In Philadelphia the majority of the boys are sluggers always trying for a quick k. o. For example, there are Lew Tendler, Joe Tlplltz. Danny Kramer and others, all heavy sockers and not so much for boxing. Baltimore is another great city "for sluggers. George Chaney and Kid Williams, the old bantam champ, are two examples. "In St. I'aul the budding young sters all try to Imitate Mike Gibbons and for thrc last ten years most of the boxers turned out in St. Paul and Minneapolis box after the order of Mike. Fighter or boxer, they all try the continual Gibbons shift. Leonnrd la (iotbam Example. New York is stcong on clever hat tiers. To fight like Denny Leonard is the goal of all the comers. There are plenty of give-and-take boxers In Gotham, but the honie-breds alwayB start out as clever steppers. "I can't say that any certain style is followed by the youngsters here. They seem to box the way that suits them bast. I think the boys fight harder out here than fliey ao in the east, but I attribute that to the fact that they are used to the tour and six-round game, while the east al ways has been a 10 and 12-round stronghold. In Philadelphia, how ever, where eight rounds is the limit, they go at a fast pace." Williams will try to uphold the honor of the east "tonight against Ad Macke In the ten-round main go at the armory. Both boys are in won derful shape. Neither has been voic ing any opinion as to the outcome of the battle. other Featurra (inod. The remainder of the card will bring together what seem to be eight evenly matched boys. Sammy Gordon. Mike De Pinto and Mickey Dempsey, the three most promising youngsters here, will all show their wares. Gordon boxes De Pinto In the six round seml-flnal. while Dempsey will meet Young O'Dowd of Aberdeen In a six-round go Jack Davis, a brother of Travie Davis, will box Eddie Richards in a four-rounder. Billy Lang will tackle Fred Fer relly in the four-round curtain raiser. Ralph Gruman will referee. II AND WINS FROM THOU OLSEN First l ull Is Obtained in 48 Min utes at Cottage Grove. COTTAGE GROVE. Or.. Dec. 5. (Special.) Ralph Hand won from Thor Olsen in a wrestling match here Saturday night, getting two falls In just 60 minutes, the first In 48 min utes and the second In 12 minutes. Both falls were by the toehold, with which Hand is particularly adept. The first fall by this method so weak ened Olsen that Hand had no trouble in getting the second fall In jig time. Olsen had nine pounds the better of Hand in weight. The contest was one of the fastest ever seen here. In a former contest both got a fall anil both agreed the second match should go to a finiBh. In a preliminary match Ellsworth Damewood won from Harry Crume. getting two falls in 14 minutes and eight minutes, respectively. He was 20 pounds heavier. Young Hacken schmldt won from Fred Brown, local man. In a 10-mlnute speed go.

Dec. 5. The 1921 Penn State football team Is making no championship claims, but Is contont to let the season's record speak for Itself. No one expected Hugo Bezdek's boys to come through the tough assignment of games un defeated, and It was freely predicted that at least two games would be lost. Starting in mid-October to plav six hard games, only one of them on tho home field, the showing was ........ 1. . i.'.. Tho Nittany eleven waded through Lebanon Valley. Gettysburg;. North Carolina State. Lehigh, Georgia Tech. Carnegie Tech and the navy without batting an eyelash, while Harvard and Pitt both managed to hold the Lions even, but that was all. The latter contest was the poorest of the season, for with the gridiron ankle 1 deep in slime football was out of the question. Then It defeated Washington, 21 to 7, in the post season game Saturday. Just as last year, when eight of the 11 players were lost, graduation hits Penn State a body blow this year. Not only are seven regulars depart ing, but four good substitutes as well pass along this year. In the back fleld only Harry Wilson and Redinger will remain, while Bedenk. McMahon and Hufford are the forwards who have another year. The wonderful Killlnger played his last game Sst- urday, as did Li gainer, Knabh. Mc- Collum. Hills, Baer and Bents. In addition Captain Snell, the hard-luck fullback. Is through, together with Ritner, sub quarterback; Smozinsky, sub end, and Rugh. sub tackle, all first-string substitutes. With practlally a new team to build. prospects for next year are not very bright, although Bezdek will have some good men on hand in the fall. In addition to WIIbou In the back field he will have Cornwall. Hess. Redinger, Palm, Patton. Carson and Hynes, with a quarterback to bp de veloped. As running mate to Huf ford at end. Hap Frank, who played the Carnegie Tecii and navy games, is expected to make good, with an other good end candidate In Owrswlrt.
