LINEUPS KEPT SECRET Washington and Lincoln High Have Advantage In Weight Colum bia Coach Confident Six Out ride Games Are Arranged. The four teams of the Portland Inter- cholastlc football League have been training strenuously during the past week, and the men for the first teams have been picked in most instances, al though there will be some changes made as the new men develop and dem onstrate their ability. In some cases the managers of the teams are not will ing to divulge the names of the can didates who have won first-team posi tions, and the complete lineups will not be known until the first regular games are played. It is Impossible yet to predict the probable winner of the interscholastic series. Loft season the Hill Military team was the winner without great dif ficulty, and probably would stand a good show of pulling the same trick this Fail if it were still in the league. As it stands, the Hill team has with drawn from the society of the four oth er prep schools on account of a dis agreement over rules, and from the present outlook, with both sides obsti nate, there will be no reunion. The point at issue last Spring was over the rule that athletes should r.ot be al lowed on the school teams until they had been enrolled in the classes one term. The H- M. A. agreed to this un til it came to meeting aggregations outside of the Interscholastic league. The H. M. A. team went to Stanford and won laurels in the interscholastic track met there, and thereupon dropped out because it was felt the rule could not be followed. . Coaches Working Hard. The Lincoln High School last Fall drew second place in the percentage column, and Washington and Columbia University tied for third place. The i Washington and Lincoln High Schools ' have an advantage over the other two j institutions in the league in weight and number of old team men. The other teams, though light, are working un der good coaches, and are expected to show up well. . Coach Callicrate. with his green bunch at Columbia University, is mak Irr rood nrozress. but has not named his first-team material. He has the I hardest Job of all the coaches in the league, but expects to show up well when the time comes. Besides the interscholastic games. Manager Black is arranging for Colum bia, games with Pacific University, the Broadway High School of Seattle, Van couver High School, and Albany High School. The -first interscholastic game will be played with Lincoln High, Oc tober 15. Among the men showing up well for the Columbia team are: Cook, rJeyhoa Davis. Earle. Perkins, Sharp, Haywood, Quinn, Redman. Coach McAllister, in charge of the Portland Academy team, has been put ting his charges through strenuous forward-pass and onside-kick practice the last three or four days. His team is rather light, but seems to have speed, and that is what the coach is working for. The P. A. first team at present is lin ing up as follows: Claience Curry, cen ter: Matsrhek. right guard: Soden, right tackle: Bean, left endStatey. right end: Rumelin. left guard: Condon, left tackle; Cookingham, fullback or half; Cobb, half; Noland. fullback or half; K.

MANY SWIMMERS ARE MADE Wrestlers Under O'Connell Show Great Progress, Boxing Instruct or Danzlger Sees Good Ma terial in J. G. Smith. Fall activity in athletics In Multnomah Club circles is more pronounced at the commencement of this season than ever before in the htetory of the club, and in dications point to record-breaking classes and a general increase of interest in all branches of Indoor sports. As Winter approaches the outdoor swim ming exercisss are becoming less popular,' and the fondness for the big tank at the club naturally increases. In this depart ment Professor Arthur Cavill, who -presides over the aquatic instructions at the club, has enjoyed huge success, for this department Is one of the busiest, as well COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY FOOTBALL TEAM.

In his classes Professor cavill has developed a number of high-class swim mers of both sexes, and Multnomah prom ises soon to be signally recognlted In this sport. In the other departments similar prog ress Is noted, and, even though the sea son is young, the enthusiasm displayed by the cla5ses forecasts a most euccesful season. Instructor O'Connell and his wres tlers have been at work a week, and even in that short time the cleverness of the grappling teacher is evidenced on all sides. Where O'Connell had but two or three good ones last season, he will have at least a dozen this year, and any one of his pupils will be able to give an account of himself in the Interclub meets to be held during the Winter. The granting of boxing and wrestling dates to the Vancouver, B. C, Athletic Association at the recent meeting of the P. N. A., means a greater field to con quer, and Eddie O'Connell Is working hard with a view of producing the cham pion grapplers of the Northwest. Last year he took charge of a comparatively green bunch and soon whipped some of them into the most promising shape. His success then means Increased success this season, and Multnomah's grapplers will not suffer for lack of proper instruction. The, situation in the boxing classes Is somehat different, though the prospects for a successful' bunch of disciples of the manly art are very bright. Instruct or Danny Danzlger, who was recently secured from the Olympic Club, of San Francisco, has assumed active charge of the classes in this department, and Is enthuslsatic over the material on hand. He likes the actions of a number of the Multnomah boys and expects to put out several of championship caliber during the coming tournaments. MAX, DWYEK. Professor Danslger Is especially taken with J. G. Smith, a youngster who com petes at 115 pounds, and on whom he will depend to defend the honors of Multnomah in that division unless some of the other youngsters show better form in the future. Several of the flttle fel lows are showing a willingness that is pleasing to the Instructor and all will bn given a thorough course of instruction. In Olmar Dranga and Harry Neicken, Danziger believes Multnomah has the best pair of 125-pound boxers on the Coast, and he is taking great pains to improve their style and polish off the rough edges of both lads'. "Doe" Butler looms up as a most promising 175-pound-er. and Danziger likes his form. He thinks Multnomah stands a chance of landing the championship in this division if Butler does not meet with an acci dent. Gene West will again represent the club in the 136-pound class, and the new boxing instructor intends . to teach him somehting of science and to have West drop part of the "bulldog." Be tween the two he should show marked Improvement. Professor Krohn has charge of the gymnastic classes and has his hands full with the Increased membership. McNulty Quits Gridiron. WASHINGTON. Oct. 2. Georgetown University football team received a se vere blow today when it was announced that Joe McNulty, of Chicago, one of the best halfbacks in the South, would not play with the team this season, ow ing to parental objections.

TEAMS EVENLY- MATCHED Resnlt More in Doubt Than Any Other Contest Between Wirtaers In American and National Leaguers Ever Played. BY W. J. .PETRAIN When the Chicago pubs, of the Na tional League, failed to land a fourth successive pennant in the race which, though not quite ended, has proved the Pittsburg PiratesHhe winning club, the way was opened for a competition be tween the champions of the two major leagues, which will be unique in many respects. In the first place, the coming struggle between Pittsburg and Detroit, now that the latter has won a third straight ohampionship in the younger league, virtually means a battle between the two best batters the baiseball world has known in recent years Tyrus Cobb and John (Honus) Wagner. The former has youth, vigor and the exultation of a young man who realizes his position, while the latter has the benefit of ex perience, cool-headedness and a won derful accuracy in his style of play. Can Wagner Beat Cobb? Will Cobb- excel Wagner in the com ing world's series? is the much-mooted question discussed among the fans all over the country. To the writer it seems that every advantage should lie with the Pittsburg man, for Cobb's ef forts in the previous world's champion ships, with Chicago as Detroit's oppon ent, were not up to half what had been expected of him. However. Pittsburg does not possess the classy staff of twirlers who worked so well in the competitions won by Chicago, and against this fact is the increased ef fectiveness displayed by Detroit's pitch ers. The many phases of the great battle between the two premier clubs are so complicated, the eventual result is hard er to forecast than any previous world's series, with the possible exception of the battle between Pittaburg and Bos ton. Petroit Strong In Pitchers. In Mullin, Wllletta, Summers. Killlan and Works, with the possibility of "Wild Bill" Donovan, the Tigers seem to have a better working staff of twirlers' than has Pittsburg, which plub will depend on Camnitz. Leever. Philllppi, Maddux. Willis. Leirfleld and Adams. Camnitz has been the mainstay of the Pirates in the pitching line, and his record for the season compares favoably with that of Mullin, and is better than the rec ords of Willetts and Summers, Detroit's next best twirlers. In the previous championships in which Detroit figured, the men who did most of the, hitting for the club, Herman Schaeffer and Claude Rossman. are not now with the Tigers. Therefore it would seem to be up to Ty Cobb, Sam Crawford, Jim Delehanty and several others to hit a batting gait in order to give the Tigers an advantage over the hard-hitting Pittsburgers. for the Pirates with the redouts ble Wagner, as well as Fred Clarke, Young Miller, Tommy Leach. Byrne, Absteln, Wilson and the rest, form a hitting combination that can do things with the bat. Battle Begins Friday. Sam Crawford has hit at his old-time clip during the season about to end. but Mclntyre and Delehanty have not batted up to their usual figures. The two latter may come to the front In the world's series, and with Cobb and Crawford assisting at opportune moments, the Ti gers will make things interesting. Detroit stands a much better chance against Pittsburg than airainst the Chi cago Cutis, for Fred Clarke has not the well-oiled, crafty baseball machine that Chance possessed, in fact, the Pitts burg and Detroit clubs are more evenly matched than any two clubs ever com peting in a world's series, for both are aggressive teams and depend principally on batting rallies for victories. Both possess fast men on the bases, .and the duals between Wagner and Cobb, and Miller and. Mclntyre in this department should furnish some keen sport. The eyes of the busebali world, will be centered on Pittsburg and Detroit on and after next Friday, when the big series commences. Each team has its admirers in Portland and the interest here Is keener than ever before. LAST YEAR'S RULES GOVERN Old Regulations to Govern World's1 Championship Series. CHICAGO, Oct. 2.

The crew of the Louisiana waa sec ond and that of the British cruiser Drake third. The race, which is an international classic, was rowed for three miles along a course parallel with the line of the International fleet anchored in the Hud son. It was a close struggle between the two American crews, the tars of the Min nesota beating the crew of the Louisiana by a bare half length. The Drake's crew finished nine lengths behind. At the start the Drake oarsmen shot ahead, but they did not keep their lead for more than the first eighth of a mile. First the Louisiana cutter and then the Minnesota's overtook the Britishers. The Minnesota's, boat gradually over hauled the Louisiana's and passed it at the end of the second mile. Cutters from many of the warships followed the racers, while thousands of spectators watched tho contest from the bank. The oup waa presented by the enlisted men of the British squadron, commanded by Rear-Admiral Prince Louis of Bat tenburg. which visited the United States in 1S05. It was won twice by the battle ship Illinois, once by the British cruiser Argyle and once by the Louisiana. St. Cloud Defeats Hamlin. ST. PAUL, Oct. i. Hamline University Northwest Buick Company F.
