In the sunshine of a typlral October afternoon the lint game thin non of (trcer or association football was played yesterday at the baseball grounds. Twenty-fourth and Vaughn streets, between elevens representln the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Clu arid the Columbian, resulting; in th vtctorv of the Multnomaha by the Krnre of three goals to none. Ft was what is known among ex ptrts as a "pretty" (tame. That is, the boys 'wore now costumes which were a dazzling array of cardinal and white, and white and black, aa yet un spotted from the tear and wear many a hard-fought field, and they .put up a lively contest, marked not so much by regular combination aa pre sentlng a picture of fighting, plung lng. kicking and hunting. Quite Interested crowd of spectators attended, among them being several women. Individual Play Good. Both elevens showed lack of team work, due to the fact that the boys bad not played together as teams, and were a hit strange at first, not know lng their neighbors- style of play. Bu thy soon caught on in spots, with passing and criss-cross. Individual play was strong in about half a doxen ris. Really, the Multnomnhs played w-ith one dozen men to their oppon ents eleven, as Stonewall" Iyment came out as the real football general and did the work of two men. There was no setting past him. His head and his feet responded with the reg ularlty of a machine. Oh. that he could annex say 20 pounds more avoir dupois. But at present any athlete who strips as a lightweight should feel encouraged to play against men who are much heavier, by watching Dy- ment's skilful playing. The surprise of the game was Kydd a stranger, who showed unexpected skill and Judgment. We shall hear more of Kydd before the season ia over. Barton, the Multnomah's goal keeper, had never before played in i ftame, and did very well indeed. He twice saved his citadel by catching two "long" shots, and once he caught a spiral on the point of his toe and booted -the leather to safety. Patullo, goalkeeper for the Coluniblas. was kept busier and toward the close hla mates could not relieve the pressure, hut he saved three times when goals looked dangerous. Mills played a strong, aggressive game, and Dick and Hansen really de serve cerdlt for fine combination work. Crosby, the fullback, formerly of the Astnrtas. and who had practically not played "soccer for about ten years. showed his old-time form in well placed kicks. Hurry Matthew was the beat all-around fotward, and kept his position well. Some of the Multnomaha took too many chances when they tried to "head" a ball and missed. It 11 come with more practice, boys, and then It will be like checker-board rffec. Columbia Lack AftRTesslvrness. Among the ColumMas. on the whule th'y had the better combination, but their playing lacked snap and ag gressiveness. "Doc" Short made the best and longest goal kicks down the field and he was ably helped by Burns. In the left wing. Young and Tait played brilliantly, but were too closely watched to do much damage. Dickson kept his place admirably and is a heady player, this year. Frank Wll dcr. who kicked off and began the game, should play more for the ball than the man. In my opinion. Wilder has lots of speed and strength. And oh. yes. there s my friend Sim Bennett! Although a Junior In the game. Bennett .works like s senior and gives valuable assistance. It was exasperating to play on such a narrow field, at least ten feet too short, owing to the proximity to the laseha!l dlnmond. In consequence, the Vail was often beyond the line and the throw-Ins were many. The game was clean and aggressive. Alec Young was cut over his right eyebrow, but plurkUy continued playing. And there were a few minor bruises, but nothing serious. Goal In Three Mlnntea. The Columbia were handicapped at the start by playing up hill and with the sunlight In their faces. The first goal was scored in three minutes by Kydd. who sent in a aw-lft shot Harry Matthew and Miila scored the other two. The first goal seemed to settle the bns!nes. but the Columblas came bark, gamely. The referee was Charles Kellas. and linesmen 9amuel Kane and Edward Ftevenson. the latter being a veteran International player. The soever season has had a most ausv-luis opening, and if the game had been played on Multnomah field the crowd would have been larger. Here's to you, boy. A prosperous season !

TO I S ". 4 f" " iJ TRUCE BETWEEN GIG AUTO CLUBS Dispute Over Sanctioning of International Race Meets Finally Patched Up. A. C. A. IN FULL CONTROL Will Have Absolute Authority Over Events In Which Foreigners Compete Vanderbllt Race Is No Longer International. The controversy between the American Automobile Club and the Automobile Club of America, which has existed ever since the former body came out with Its rulea for the coming Vanderbllt cup race, has flnaJly been patched up and an agreement entered into by the two clubs which will assure peace in the future on all questions relating to sanc tiona, rules, etc. The A. A. A. In the past has been the governing body and held control of all racing meets, tours, etc., held In this country. The A. C. A. is the older or ganization and In fact is the pioneer automobile club in the country. It be lng more or less of a local club for New Yorkers, when the demand throughout the country for a governing body became Imperative the A. C. A. voluntarily re linquished Its light in the matter and helped in the organization of the A. A. A. It wnp the understanding that the new organization was to control all matters pertalnnlg to public meets, such as tours. races, hill-climbs, etc.. but that the older club was to retain its representative at the International Association of Recog nized Automobile Clubs, which meets every year to decide all matters pertain lng to automobile affairs of International Interest. Rules are adopted at this an nual meeting which are supposed to hold at all race meets of International Interest and the whole trouble this year came about when the A. A. A., in mak lng the rules for the anderbilt cup race, which Is an International affair, w fit to change in some respects the rules adopted at the meeting of the In ternational club. The rules sot forth by the A. A. A. for the Vanderbllt race were such that great number of the cars which had been built earlier In the season with the expectation of entering them in the Van derhilt were mado ineligible. I'pon the refusal of the A. A. A. to change the rules, the A. C. A. made plans for a race at Savannah which would be an inter national affair and in which the great number of racing cars abroad would be eligible. Immediately the two clubs be gan to cut each other's throats, with the result that neither race seemed as sured of great success and the chances of holding the Vanderbllt race seemed very small. Realizing th effect of an tagonizing each other, a meeting was held and the following agreement drawn up and signed by both clubs: Tt ts agreed that the American Auto mobile Association shall recocnlss and ac knowledge the Automobile Club of Amer ica to be the sole Ajneiioan representative and member of the International Aaaocta- lon of Recognised Automobile Clubs, and that as such it ts and shall be recognised and askno-led-d as the sole and unqual ified authority for a!l International automo bile affairs tn the United Slates of America. Further, that the American Automobile oe!atlen agrees to have chanred the con ditions of the Vanderbllt Cup Race so that he same thai! be purely a National and not an International affair and th Auto mobile Club of America agrees to do all n its power to make such race a success. The result will probably be that tha Savannah meet this year w-ill go far ahead of the Vanderbllt race, because of the entries of foreign cars being barred from the Vandcrbilt. Next year there will be no Savannah race and the anderbilt will again come Into Its old standing of being the premier event In this country. The A. C. A. wtll have entire charge of ail International races and as the Vanderbllt has alw-ays been open to foreign entries, it will undoubt edly be an international affair next year nder the control of the A. C. A. . Meanwhile arrangements have been otng on for the Savannah race and from the extensive list of entries both foreign and American, which have come in and the splendid arrangements which ave been made for the accommodation of the visitors, the race seems assured of success. The steamer City of Savan nah has been chartered by the Automo- Ile Club of America, to convey Its mem bers to Savannah and arrangements ave been made to use the entire lower deck for the transportation of the auto mobiles of the party. Accommodations are to be had for chauffeurs and it will be possible for the owners to visit the race with almost as much comfort as though It were on Long Island. The boat is to leave on the Saturday pre ceding Thanksgiving and is expected to land il passengers early Tuesday morn- kv sir - --Jsji 7 -r- V- v J . - "i A DRIBBLING GAME. lng. The homeward trip Is to be plan ned so as to end Monday morning in time for business. e s Five more entries were received last week for the grand prise race of the Automobile Club of America, to be run at Savannah. Ga., November 26. This makes ten entries received so far, and of this number eight are foreign and two American. Three Bens, two Mer cedes, three Flats, a B. L. M. and an Acme, comprise the list. The B. L. M. entry Is of 110 horsepower and is the car which was built for the 1906 Van derbllt rare and then not run. It has a bore of six Inches and Is said to have recently done a mile In 32 1-5 seconds. The Acme is a special chassis with, a stock motor of six Sx5 cylinders. The Zust car In the New Tork-to-Parts race finally reached Paris short ly after noon on September 17. Al though Its arrival was nearly a month behind that of the winner, great crowds turned out and the crew were roundly cheered as they drew up in front of the office of Le Matin. Nearly a week waa lost getting into Paris, as the car was overturned near Apolda and the crew had to spend several days In the hospital before being able to proceed. The race committee will meet shortly to award the prizes, now that all tha cars that will finish are in. J. W. Owens Is putting taxicabs on the Pacific Coast and already four tax icabs from the Olds Motor Works are being successfully run by N. O. Harri son, the Los Angeles agent. It will undoubtedly be but a short time before theso cabs will be seen on the streets of Portland and every town in the country of any size. In the larger cities of tha East they are fast re placing horse cabs, there being no less than 600 In operation at the present time In New York City. Announcements are out for the wed ding of Guy Warner Vaughn, the well known racing driver, to Miss Helen Knapp. of New Rochelle. The event will occur October S. T. Joplin recently took delivery of his 40-horsepower Peerless touring car purchased from the Western Motor Car Company. GOOD BO I TS AT ACTOX MEET Clever Boxers and Wrestlers Will Participate In Benefit. ' Because the Portland Hunt Club's annual horse show Is scheduled for October IS. the promoters of tha big athletic benefit to be tendered Joe Acton, the former champion wrestler and trainer, have changed the date of the latter event to October 14. On this date several matches be tween the most prominent amateur and professional boxers and wrestlers of Portland and vicinity have been ar ranged, and the meet will prove one of the best cards that has yet been introduced to the Portland public. Among those who have volunteered to appear at the Multnomah Club on Acton night are Tommy Tracy, the former welter weight champion, and Frank Sax, one of Tracy's cleverest pupils. In addition. Jack O Brlen, tha former champion or Vk yomlng, nas a youngster who will display some class in the heavyweight division. This lad will probably be matched with Ed Johnson or William Dennis. In addition to the boxing bouts some high-class wrestling matches will be Introduced. It is possible that Frank Vance, the crack Seattle wrestler, may come to Portland to appear at the ben efit, for Vance is one of the warmest admirers of Joe Acton. William Inglls. secretary of the Seat tle Athletic Club, who is coming to Portland next Friday tto confer with the Multnomah Club about the boxing and wrestling tournaments to be held during the coming w inter, will also be present at the Acton benefit.

Last night Hill was put out of the Old Rambo saloon because he was drunk and dis orderly. A friend who has known him for some 40 years went out to try to quiet him.

VICTORS STILL IN DOUBT Ail hough Xcw York Giants Were Defeated Yesterday, They Have an Excellent Chance to Tri umph In National. BT TV. J. PETRA1N. The baseball struggles In the Amer ican and National Leagues are tha chief topic of conversation In nearly every city of tha country, overshadow ing such minor events as the Presi dential campaign. Nearly every fan In America is so worked up over the chances of New York, Chicago (both teams), Pittsburg, Cleveland or St. Louis that he Is hardly able to carry on a conversation on any other topic. The chances of any of the clubs mentioned winning one of the championships Is still In evidence, and if a man Is for tunate enough to pick the victor he Is a lucky Individual. As an instance of the rabidness of some of the advocates of the big leaguers, relative to the position of the clubs, may be mentioned a conversa tion that took place last night: "Tlnga-llng- went The Oregonlan phone last evening, followed by an In quiry for the sporting editor. "Hello, what can I do for you?" "Who won the game today?" was the query. "Portland defeated Oakland," was the answer. "Who gives a whoop about Portland? I meant Chicago and New York In tha big leagues," was the reply. Ha waa then Informed that Pittsburg won, as well aa Chicago, and New York lost In the National League, while in the American League Cleveland lost and Detroit won. This simply shows that the fans of this vicinity have their attention rivet ed on the big leaguea, because tha race on the Pacific Coast at present Is not even close, and close counts with the average fan. To get back to the big league con teats, the defeated teams of yesterday. New York and Cleveland, are not yet out of the race. In fact, New York still stands an excellent chance of eventually winning. This is so because the Gothamites have three games to play with Boston, and should McGraw's men win all three games they will be National League champions, despite a possible victory by Pittsburg over Chi- i csgo this afternoon. In the American League the case is muchly similar. In fact, Detroit must win all the games of the Chicago se ries, which commences this afternoon at Chicago, or forfeit tha claim to the American premiership, for Cleveland is sure to take the majority of the games from St. Louis. Therefore, the Amer ican League race is by no means set tled as yet- Fielder Jones and his Chi cago White Sox still have a chance to score, but can only do so by defeating Detroit every game, while St. Louis plays Cleveland to a standstill. With such baseball struggles In evi dence. Is It any wonder than fandom all over the country is worked up to the highest pitch? It Is a grand struggle, and msy the best teams win.

EIGHT VETERANS RETURN Strong Liine Already Developed and Plenty of Promising Material Offered in Freshman Class. Hastings Valuable Man. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLBOE1 Corvallis, Oct. 3. (Serial.) This collegs has never witnessed sucn activity in loot ball circles as Is being manifested at the Dresent time. Over 90 men have been at work throughout the week ana tne squaa Is beinir augmented dally by new arrivals. Most of the material Is green, but -many of the candidates give promise, with the proper coachlnar. of developing into able gridiron warriors. Tne gravest prooiem which is facing the management at tne present time is to provide coaches to handle the squad. Lyman Bundy and Chauncey Harding have been drafted into service and Director Angell Is still look ing for coaches. Bight veterans of from one to three years' experience have already reported and it is possible that two more will re turn before the season is much older. These men will take care of five line po sitions and three places in the back field. Kelly will probably fill his old position at center. He Is light for the center posi tion, but took good care of the place In a very satisfactory way last year. Pen dergrass and Jamieson. two All-Northwest linemen of last year, are quite cer tain to be in their old places again this season. Dobbin and Cady, who alternated at right end, appear to have the best chance for the end positions, but are go ing to be. crowded by Bribers and Has tings, two men of experience at the game. Cooper, who proved to be the best ground gainer on the team last year, will be In at half again and Gagnon will prob ably play at quarter. Captain Wolfe will play fullback and take care of tha kicking department. Besides these men the coaches hope for the return of Bennett and Barber to fill the other two line po sitions. The new men who are showing great est promise are Hastings, ex-captain and star of "West Division H'h of Portland, Bnberg ex-captain of Baker City High; Moore. Parker, Bvsndon and Keck.

The men are fast rounding into shape, and will be ready for more rigid work next week. While the prevailing sentiment seems to be one of confidence in a successful season, neither the coaches nor the men appear to be overconfident. All arrangements, excepting the selec tion of a definite date, have been com pleted for a game between the freshman teams of O. A. C. and the University of Oregon. The game will be played at Corvallis. This will be the first class game ever played with an outside rival, and the result will be watched with much Interest by the student body. NORTHWEST LEAGUE. Seattle 1; Butte 0. 8 BATTLE, Wash., .Oct. 3. (Speclal.) Seaton and Samuels had a pitchers" bat tie todav. in which the hits were even. Seaton made two of the five hits credited to Seattle, and scored the only run ot tne game by a long slide to the plate, when Bennett hit sharply to Stls in the third inning. Stls fielded the ball perfectly and made a swift ncg to the plate, out &eaion beat the throw. The fielding was fast and clean, none of the errors cutting any figure in the score. Seaton was remarn ably steady in the pinches, and three times with two out and a man on third waitina- to score he fanned the batter. Wilson, of Seattle, furnished the fielding feature with a remarkaDie running caicu that shut off a run. Score: R.H.E. R.H.K.
