Thla game, which resulted In defeat for tha college boys, gave Coach Halph Prmlck hi first opportunity to get a com pre -henalre idea of tha weak spot and th general strength of his team. McAllen. who played such a brilliant game at quarter during the last half of the game, will be used regularly at this position. After seeing htm In ac tion many wondered why he was not used In ths first half, but this was pre vented by an agreement with Jeffereoa that McAllen was not to be used unleaa Malarkry was Injured. McAllen, hav ing played with Jrtnon last year, knew too much concerning the weak pots of the Blue and Oold team, and for this reason the above agreement waa reached. Malarkey will be switched to full, while Fltigersld will be brought from the back field to center. This Is ill regular position. Webber, who filled the pivot place Thuraday. will hav a permanent place at guard. He will replace Garrett. Karsfleld will be ahlfted from tackle to guard. Iavt and Dixon, two of the best men on th tram, were missed at their respective positions, of left and right half. Both wer out on account of in juries, but will be on deck Thursday when th team meets Hill Military Academy. Ilmick will now begin to work, out some new plays which he built to over come tha faults brought out by th gam with th JefTeron!ans.

The end of the third week of football practice at the Oregon Agricultural College leavea Co oh Do lan with the problem of developing his line and finding and developing a back field. It seem certain now that from end to end the line haa possibilities of being the strongest that ha been en here for a number of years. The available material for back field positions Is very limited and light. With Evendon out of the game from a sprained ankle and with no cer tainty that he will be able to play again this year. It haa become neces sary for Coach Dolan to develop an entirely new set of first string backs as well as second string backs. Ceater ef Lisa strong. With Carlson, ths ex-Multnomah Club player, at center and Bltton, a veteran of last year, and Chrlstman. a powerful freshman, at the two guard positions, the center of the line Is well taken care of. Captain May. whose In Jury of last FTlday may keep him out of the game for two weeks. Is a hard and aggressive player who always gives a good account of himself. Moore, a freshman weighing over 200 pounds. Is playing left tackle acceptably, al though he still la "green" as to the requirements of the position. McBrlrto, Ingram and C. D. Bltton are all con tenders for positions and It is not un likely that any one of them may selxe one of the coveted positions. Childress, from Medford High, plays good foot ball, but Is too light. The end positions are being taken oar of at present by Enberg, one of last year's star tackles, a fast and heavy man, who gives a good account of himself either on the offensive or defensive, and by Larsen, fullback on last year's freshman team. Cochran, a freshman from Lincoln High, Is driv ing the varsity ends to their best en deavors by bis work as also is Darling, a Portland High School boy. who was holding one of tha end positions until the Injury to his knee last week. Reynolds, who haa played quarter back for ths last two years. Is still ths leading candidate for that position this year. Hewitt, a freshman who is directing the second team, and Rob inson, of Washington Hlgli. are the two leading contenders for the substi tute positions. Back Field Is I'msettled. The positions behind the line are most unsettled. Jessup and Dwarte, both new men. are showing tip In the best shape. Both are willing, but must learn a great deal more football be fore they can be considered good var sity material. 8haw, from Aberdeen High School, also a freshman. Is do ing good work and Is by no means out of the running. Bassmussen. who played on the eleven two years ago, la out in a suit, but, owing to a broken hand, has taken no part In the line-ups. Sines the Injury of Even don. the fullback position has been filled bv Evans, a freshman, who Is very willing and a hard player, but Is very "green" as to the duties of his position and very alow. The loss of Hetsel and Golden this week, because of other work Inter fering, and the loss of the two veter an. Kellogg and Richardson, through their insubordination towards tho coaching staff, and the fact that Scott, who came to the college from the Oak Park High School. Chicago, with a big reputation, has never reported on the field, have left the available material for second string men somewhat canty. Th plrlt whloh haa been ahown this year has been admirable In all phases except those of Kellogg and Richardson. Coach Dolan refused to make any comments on their case oth er than to say that discipline must be preserved, vn If he has to sacrifice the prospects of the team. It Is confidently expected by the coach and by the undergraduates that th team will glv a good account of Itself In the conference games, pro vided the 111 luck which has been fol lowing it ceases. Although a Urge number of freshmen hava come out still thsre are many large and power ful men around the campus, who have never donned their football togs. The squad consists of about 50 men and the second eleven Is almost equal to the first eleven In playing -ability, thus Insuring constant competition for the places as well as hard practice scrimmage.

FIRST QUARTER SCORELESS Portland Aggregation Well Balanced and Works in Harmony Open Play I Avoided In Tac tics of Locals. In defeating Albany High School yes terday afternoon on Multnomah Field by the decisive score of 21 to 0. Wash ington High School showed that the Valley team Is badly in need of coach ing. The Portland Hlarh School boys used very little open work, succeeding In getting all their soores, except one. by straight line bucks and end runs. One goal was made when Hedges in tercepted a forward pass attempted by Albany and carried 'it across the line. From the first toot of the whistle the Maroon and Gold boys bewildered the UD-state champions with their fast. clever play. However, they aid not score nnul Kelson maae a pittto. the JO-yard line In the second from Quarter From mat ume oa u " " During the progress of play many spectators, familiar with the high school football situation for the past two years, commented on the evident fact that the Washington team Is not as strong as It was last year when It won th lnterscholastlc championship. Punting- Is Featare. Archibald and the Blgbee boys starred for th visitors. The former made a number of splendid punts, while th brothers made roost of the yardage for the Blue and Gold. Washington's stellar work was well distributed, and changed from quarter to quarter. Becket filled the vacancy of Parsons, th star halfback of ths lntersoholastio leagn last yar, pretty well, seldom falling to make good gain when the ball was passed to him.

Edwards, Smith and Nelson took their stand In the spot light's glow at different times. Smith making excellent end runs, and Nelson making some good kicks. The nearest either team came to scor ing In the first period was when Vtfash lngton tried a place kick from the 85 yard line and failed. The second quarter began with the ball In Portland's territory, but the Washington lads kept crowding the Valley men until they scored on Nel son's place kick. On two other occa sions they had good opportunities to score, but their opponents got down to the ground with such determination that they held them a foot from the goal. - Monteith, of the visitors, tried a forward pass at the opening of the third division. This was intercepted by Hedges, who carried the ball over the line for a touchdown. In the fourth stanza. Captain Becket scored two more fivers on straight line bucks, one In the last two minutes of play. It was generally conceded that if tha visitors had a little more coaching and combined fleetness with their weight and otherwise good playing, matters might have been different The game was clean throughout, and It was not- until the third quarter that either team was penalised. Then Washington was set back flv yards for being off side. The teams lined-up as follows: Washington. Albany.
