To TVa PUBUC COUR-Sf? -TViCTRO Ae AAO OF four p M M 1 Mr While the northwest Intercollegiate conference was winding up Its huh aion here yesterday, the graduate managers and coaches of the various colleges In both the Pacific coast and northwest conferences got together to such good purpose that by last night the 1922 football schedules of virtually all the colleges had been completed. This speedy action surprised every body, the delegates most of all. Usually the football schedule Is agreed upon only after long and strenuous argument. Not only was there no friction, but for a wonder everybody seemed satin fled. The schedule actually has been completed a day ahead of time. It wasn't supposed to be rounded out until after the northwest conference adjourned and the Pacific coast con ference, meeting today, should take up Its work. Little Lett for Toast. Now with all the games satisfac torily arranged, there really isn't much left for the coast conference to take up today, except to pass on the applications of Southern California and the University of Idaho for ad mittance. Southern California In al most certain to be voted In. Idaho's chances are not so good. Here are the football schedules: Ynlverslty of Oregon. October 7 Willamette at Kugene.

October 14 Oregon Aggies at Corvalllt November lei Whitman at Walla Walla. Portland gets two Pacific coast con ference football games. It will be noted from the schedule one be tween Oregon and Idaho, playing here for the second year in succes sion, on October 28, and the other between the Oregon Aggies and Washington State, on November 25, which is the Saturday before Thanks giving. J. F. Bohler of Washington State, and Coach Rutherford of O. A. C. at first, sought to schedule this game here for Thanksgiving day. but the Multnomah club objected to giving up its traditional date to outside elevens. Then they got to thinking It over and decided that after all. November 25. the Saturday before Thanksgiving, is at least as good a date and perhaps a better one. In view of the fact that attendance here at Thanksgiving day games has been getting a little slim mer each year. Third Gaaaa Possible. There Is Just a possibility that still a third game, between Oregon and Southern California, or some outside eleven, may be played In Portland November 4. Oregon wants the date, and has asked Southern California to come north, but as the Trojans play Stanford on November tl at Palo Alto they assert this would make two trips necessary and would be too hard on the team. So Oregon may try to get middle western team here for that date, though the scheme has not gone beyond the gossip stage. It will be noted from the schedules that Stanford, for the first time, has taken on four Pacific coast confer ence games. Heretofore she has played only three Oregon has only three coast confer- Deetoes To rak op FftieruD Glad To Put wamit ' ' f 2fc. decides io I COUPLE OU,r I Ltp. 6AV3 4g ARE ONi 1 of .

The Oregon Aggies have four coast conference games definite ly scheduled against Washington, Washington State. Stanford and Ore gon and will have a fifth If the game tentatively scheduled with Southern California for December 8 goes through. Angell Re-Elected President. For the first time .a several years Oregon has no game with any of the California universities. The northwest conference adjourned yesterday afternoon after re-electing Dean Angell of Idaho as president and J. F. Bohler of Washington State as secretary. The conference put In several hours in the morning dis cussing the freshman rule again, and finally put the whole thing on the table which leaves it Just about as It was before the conference met. That Is. the rule prohibiting colleges having 200 or more male students registered from using freshmen on athletic teams, will be effective. As Whitman is certain to go Just above the 200 mark next year, that will prevent her from .using freshmen on her football team, which was the real source of contention, and Wil lamette will be affected the same way. However, an amendment pro viding that students should not be counted in the 200 total if they take less than 12 hours of college work may save Willamette, as she has quite a .number of men students In special courses who take only six hours. Other Schedules Drawn. While thev were framing the foot- hall schedules, the coaches and grad uate managers made it a big day's work hv also drawing up their ha.ikethall and baseball schedules Some of the dates are tentative and subject to change, but In the main the schedules as drawn will siano. northwest basketball schedules low: University of Wahlngton.

HOYAL TRAFFIC LAW BHEARERl ( KUEMOMOI SLV PAYS FIXE. Customs of India Upset Judicial Procedure in Gotham Court When Case Is Tried. NEW YORK, Dec. 4. (Special.) Activities in traffic court were sus pended for 10 minutes when a man, said to be the first genuine prince of royal blood, entered in response to a summons handed him for violating the traffic laws by driving an auto mobile in Central park with tail lights out. Tha weirdly sumptous robes of the prince, who said his name is Jovedah de Rajah, and his wife. Princess Olga, and his wife's friend. Miss Zasari, brought a thrill of interest. When a court attendant told the prince to remove his head covering, the prince explained that he couldn't, since it was never done in India and to do so wouid bring upon him the wrath of his fathers for countless ages back. Everybody thought there would be a lot of trouble until Magistrate House said, an exception would be made in this case, but right away the court got another jolt. The magis trate asked the prince to identify himself and those with him. "The princess Is my wife," he said, "but she is snly one of three 1 have with me during my travel." "Is that possible?" gasped the magistrate. It was explained then that the prince had violated the law and wanted to make amends. "1 am sorry, your honor, self-styled prin ce. said the.

VETERAN GETS CONTRACT Cliarles Eaton Third Generation of Family to Take Homesteud. VANCOUVER. Wash., Dec 9. (Special.) Charles Eaton, overseas veteran, has received a goernment patent to 5H acres of land on a small peninsula in Shillapoo lake, near Feldia. This makes the third gener ation that has secured homesteads in this section of the state. In 1869 and 1870 patents were given to John R. Eaton and Joseph Eaton, father and grandfather of Charles Eaton. These two homesteads were near Battle Ground, 20 miles from Vancouver. Joseph Eaton and wife, Charlotte Eaton, settled on a donation land claim near Woodland March 27, 1853. The land obtained by Charles Eaton is not worth much except for catfish lng. but if the lake is drained he will benefit greatly and will then have a very much larger place.

Babe Herman, the Sacramento feather and star protege of Jack Kcarns and Champion Dempsey. will meet Danny Edwards, the Oakland slasher, in the ten-round main tangle in Milwaukie Friday night. After looking over the available field for material Matchmaker Kendall con cluded that a ten-rounder between Herman and Edwards would be the most desirable attraction. The two met in Los Angeles sev eral weeks ago, Edwards winning the decision. It was Herman's first fight after a serious operation which he underwent a month or so ago. He was far from being in the best of shape. Herman created a sensation in the east last year by winning every fight he took part in. Herman bowled over many likely looking youngsters from New Orleans to New York and stowed away some veterans as well. Such men as F. B. Costaln, who was here with Harry Wills, and who has been identified with the boxing game for more than 30 years, thinks that Herman is the greatest featherweight in the world. Costain went as far as to make the statement that Herman could beat Johnny Kll bane, and was the only boy that had a chance to turn the trick. Edwards is the best boy at his weight on the Pacific coast today and has never been headed in a match here except in his encounters with Billy Mascott several years ago. Both will be on the ground within the next few days. Herman will probably box with Jack Dempsey all next week as the latter will be appearing at the Pan tages theater. There is also a pos sibility of Dempsey going behind Herman the night of the fight, or Kearns at least. Pete Mitchie, the ex-northwest lightweight star, is primed for a comeback after three months of hard work with Stanley McDonald. Mitchie will box In the seml-windnp of next Friday night's card at Milwaukie. His opponent is slated to be Archie Stoy, the clever Aberdeen mauler. The re mainder of the card is in the making. Sailor Freedman is getting plenty of offers since his fight with Benny Leonard in Philadelphia recently. The Chicago gob is slated to mill with Johnny Dundee in Jersey city Decem ber 12. and then tackle Lew Tendler in New York at the garden Decem ber 16. The Dundee bout Is up In the air now that the Tendler fight has been carded. It is said by those on the inside that all is not well in the Tendler-Freedman match. In fact some one even hinted that Tendler might pull a few -like he did in bis recent match with Rocky Kansas. Philadelphia "aces" lost 'thousands of dollars In the Tendler-Kansas fracas. If Dundee should get a crack at Freedman first he mignt spill the beans by mussing the sailor up. But on the other hand thy say that Freedman is not a bad fighter at all and is improving with every battle. BIG SHAKE-IP AT MINNESOTA Athletic Department to Be Reor ganized Completely. MINEAPOLIS. Dec. 9. Complete reorganization of the athletic depart ment of the University of Minnesota was decided upon today by the board of athletic control.
