BY ADDISON BENNETT. WHEN Phil Tleman was the cham pion billiard player of the world, some 40 or more years ago, he was sitting In his billiard parlor In Cincinnati one forenoon, when a stranger entered and asked Phil If be would play a game. Phil was willing. So they strung for the lead. Phil won. and proceeded to run the game out. This was repeated three v times, when the stranger put his cue In the rack and started to walk out Phil faulted him and asked If he had not forgot something. The fellow felt of his pockets, saw he had his hat and coat, and replied, "I guess not." Whereupon Phil said, "Haven't you for' trot to Dav for three erames of bil- liardsT" "Billiards." replied the stranger, "billiards? Why, you derned fool, I halnt played no billiards." Thursday afternoon it looked for a long time aa if the University of Ore gon team of football players could say the same thing to the Multnomah boys. changing the billiards to football, but Just as I had It all figured out how I would open my story, and close It. and tell that the Eugene boys had again failed to show the necessary "stlbblns," Just then hat chap by the name of Washington game mat tney are i en Latourette grabbed the ball and made titled to all praise; and no doubt those for the Multnomah goal. who praise them most will be the boys Helen, the tall girl with the big yel- who vanquished them. low chrysanthemum, who sat next to me, discovered the situation before I pvrrMO nrjonccn did. and rising In her seat and letting WATER oTolblVlO UrrUotU forth a scream, a yell and a hurrah and I tiger all In the same breath, called my ' . . x. t.v. attention to the feat.

It was quite spir ited at times, but only two or three ot the Multnomah boys were Incapacitated and none of the Eugene chaps. And those Multnomah fellows played a good game, what might be called a gamey game. I am not well up In the Intricate plays, know but little about the rules of tackling and rush ing, do not know a forward pass from a backward pass, for the life of me could not tell why that fellow carried a pillow from place to place and never allowed anybody to fall on It, and never sat down on it himself; and whenever, as he frequently did, the referee said therj had been an off side play, I wondered which side and why, and why It . was that no near side plays were alluded to. Neither did Helen know, although she is a Eugene girl this season. But all this has nothing to do with the leader of the band, who was, after all. the main feature of the game. When he wiggled hi finger to the north, the team I mean the band played far away and tunefully; when he wiggled It to the south, there was a deuce of a time, all the Instruments sending forth their loudest "notes but all In tune, always In tune. Sometimes this leader man would also wiggle the horn under his arm, and then the mu sic would soften up a bit, get sort of mournful, dlrge-Uke, as If they were playing at the funeral of somebody thev did not like while he lived. From that you might think I am trying to knock that band; but I am not. And If ever I am called upon to be the silent actor at a funeral, to oo- am'l Rosenblatt Third and cudv the post of honor, so to speak. In the casket, perhaps they will delight the audience with a dirge, remaps they will take pleasure In so doing. But If that leader wiggles both fin. gers at once during such ceremonl well! The score was 17 to (, which was not so bad. considering there were bets offered of three to one on the Multno mahs. And then It must be remem bered that It was only by a display of splendid nerve that the Eugene boys played at all, being In mourning for one of their members who met a ter rible death only a few days ago. When one remembers that, he will give those eleven young men credit for meeting those seasoned players of the Multno mahs with the pluck and spirit that they displayed Tnursaay. ah prmao i and honor to them for fulfilling the en gagement rather than disappoint thou sands of people.
