Shearer the former player for the Hill Military AosaJeimy of Portland, Is making- a strong bid for a Job in the
middle of the line. Center is his best position, and. as .Presley Is out of form, he stands a pretty fair chance. Just
now Burke Griffiths, a Seattle boy and brother of Captain, Tom Griffiths, seems to have a slight edge over him.
Leader, from Portland, is showing well at tackle. Blisis and Patten aren't showing all they should, and have had
a good chance to watch the game from the sidelines, white men ordinarily subs. Leader Included, held their Jobs.
Clark and Dorman, formerly Everett High players, showed strong the first of the season, but have weakened
somewhat. They're both promising candidates, however.
Shiel, the former Spokane High star, is the real class ioll the present backfield. He hits the -line hard. He plays
halfback.
SEATTLE MEN OFF
Washington University Opens
Season in Poor Shape.
IDAHO GAME OCTOBER 26
Doble Works His Men Hard and
Some of Last Tear's Talent Has
Deteriorated- Portland Boys
Are Likely Material.
UNIVERSITY OP WASHINGTON, Se
attle. Oct 12. (Special.) With five
first-string men out of the game and
the recruits not showing the strength
that was expected, the Washington
team will be in poor shape when it
plays its first game with Idaho, a week
from Saturday. Although driven at a
terrific pace by the veteran Coach
Dobie ever since the beginning of the
training season he has failed so far to
get together an aggregation that bears
any resemblance to last year's cham
pionship eleven.
The first practice game of the year
with the Everett High School was far
from the exhibition of football that was
expected and the continued scrimmages
between the first and second elevens
have driven the coach to desperation.
Sutton, last year's All-Northwest end,
sprained his ankle In one of the first
practices and may not be able to play
In the first two big games.
Presley, the old standby at the cen
ter position, has failed to place on the
first eleven as it lines up now in prac
tice, having evidently been beaten out
by Burke Griffiths; while neither Bliss
nor Patton are showing the ability that
won them places on the team last year.
Clark Goes to Second String;.
Clark, of Everett, who made a strong
bid for the end position opposite Sut
ton at the beginning of the year, has
been falling down in his work lately,
and Dobie has assigned him to the sec
ond string and placed Hunt in his place.
Clark had a badly bruised hand, which
has kept him from exerting himself in
tackling.-
In the punting line, Washington was
coming strong until the injury of Morl
arity last Saturday in scrimmage. He
suffered a badly sprained knee, and ac
cording to the doctor will not be able
to play for several weeks. Moriarity
was kicking better than 50 yards regu
larly, and was getting his punts off
well. Dorman, a stocky candidate for
halfback, was also injured Saturday.
His shoulder was bruised in making a
line play, but the injury will not keep
him out of the Initial game.
Abbott, another of the promising re
cruits, received a cut on the lip that had
to be sewed up. and his absence from
the squad gives Macgilllcuddy practi
cally a clear title to the end position
that was held by Sutton before his in
jury.
Portland Boys Give Promise.
Of the new men, the most promising
are Shearer, from Hill Military Acad

emy, and Edwin an d Eflmer Leader from
the Portland High Sohool. Shearer is
giving Burke GriJIltiss and Presley a
close race for the center position, and
will probably get his chance in one of
the conference gamj&s .before the close
of the season. fThe Leader brothers
have been playing hard, consistent foot
ball, and have atrvneted the attention
of Coach Dobie. Bo :h men are crew
enthusiasts and looloerl on as likely
members of the Washdngrton eight this
year, as well as -strong; contenders for
football honors. They "were the main
stays of the Portland HXgh team before
they came to asbtngton. and have had
a year's training nnder Dtoble. '
Gallagher, Sltiel and Herrett have
been playing- good ball, bat don't seem
to have assimilated Dobies style as yet.
Coylc Is Pre-emiwnt.
At the quarterback position Wand
seems to have the edge over Smith, Fl
field and Fancier, although none- of
them approach Ooyle in any department
of the game. N
The lineup of the team, as It will play
the University -of Puget Sound in a
practice game next Saturday, follows:
Burke GrlfTltba, center; Devise and Tom
Griffiths, guards; Bliss and Anderson,
tackles; Macgillfccnddy and Hunt, ends;
Wand, quarterback; Shiel and Herrett,
halfbacks; Smith., fullback.

The Alblm Juniors have Joe Arndt
for another season. His return tot the
team was a matter of some doubt for
a time, but of late he has returned to
practice with the eleven, and probaWy
will play half during the whole season.
Lacey is another recruit of merit who
has gone to the team ana wno -wiu
make good in the backiieio.
Holladay will play Its first game of
the season thas afternoon at Oregon
City against the Oregon City Athletic
Club. These two have been meeting-
annually for some time and each year
a good game results. Holladay has a
number of Iormer Jefferson iligh
Schoor stars m Its lineup. Moyer Cole,
James Campion and Williams, all-star
men of last ywa-r's high school league,
probably will play with them.
The Sioux football team will play Its
first game today against Brooklyn. The
team is composed principally of former
grammar school stars. Tom Williams,
half on the former Holladay champions.
Is playing the same position with the
Sioux.
The F. K. Watkins eleven is composed
of practically the same team which
played in tb Archer & Wiggins foot
ball league bast year. This team made
a splendid st0wing for team work, al
though lighter than some of the other
clubs. With, the same boys playing to
gether agam and Smith, of the Mult
nomah. Club squad, as coach, the team
looks forvutend to another season of
success.
On October 20, the annual game be
tween the- McLoughlin Club and the
Holladay Club will take place. These
two are ememies of old and a game of
many features always results.

UNIVERSITY "OP OREGON. Eugene,
Oct. 12. (Special.) Willamette Unlver
slty went down to a lS-to-0 defeat be
fore the University of Oregon football
huskies this afternoon on a clean, hard-
fought struggle In which the new rules
greatly increased the efficiency of the
offense. The game furnished the first
real line on a conference team, Oregon
just about measuring up to the stand
ard expected by Coaches Finkham,
Moores and Main.
The remarkable open field work of
Quarterback Cornell, the 127-pound
Portland boy, was easily the star fea
ture of the afternoon. Time after time
Latourette's successor wiggled through
the Salem defense for dazzling gains.
On both touchdowns It was Cornell who
brought the ball to the striking point.
New Downs Roles Count.
Just at the close of the first quarter
Oregon scored the initial touchdown.
Willamette, outweighed about five
pounds to the man, had been fighting
desperately and about holding even
when suddenly Cornell shot around the
end for 35 yards, placing the leather
on the six-yard line. Here the new
four-down rule injected itself, for it
took four tries to shove the ball over
the goal. Hall making the touchdown
and Bradshaw failing to kick goal.
Neither team bad an advantage in the
second Quarter, although Fullback Mc
Rae of the Willamette distinguished
himself by a couple of 20-yard gains.
Coach Sweetland's charges essayed a
goal from placement, but failed.
Oregon used several substitutes In
the second 'halt, cook going In at full.
with Farias and Soden in the line, while
Willamette relied upon the same line
up. The heat seemed to tell on the
visitors, for after a few exchanges of
kicks. Cook went 22 yards on two sue
cessive bucks and then Cornell again
astonished the several hundred enthu
siasts by skirting the end 20 yards, be-
tnsr downed on the three-yard line.
Cook fumbled and McRae kicked out of
danger, but Bridewell sailed 20 yards
around right end, almost to the goal
line. Here Captain Walker displayed
great headwork by calling for a for
ward pass, and fans -were treated to a
touchdown on a forward pass over the
goal line, the first in the Northwest
since the rules made the play legal.
Forward Pam Favorite.
Annunsen took the pass and is cred
ited with the touchdown. In the fourth
quarter. Halfback Erskine, of Willam
ette, Intercepted a forward pass and
tore 35 yards towards the goal before
overtaken by Fenton, but aside from
that one burst Oregon held the upper
hand. The half closed with the ball
on Willamette's two-yard line.
Oregon used the forward pass with
great accuracy all through the game,
but Willamette made a couple of sub
stantial gains on double and triple
passes. Fenton s kicking was excel
lent and the defensive work of McRae
and Francis, of the Wlllamettes, can
only be characterized as superb. Fran
cis received a badly gashed eye.
Coach Sweetland has a team prac
tically as strong as that which held
the Oregon Aggies to a 5-3 score last
Fall.
Whether Oregon Is stronger is prob
lematical, but at least the boys have
been getting good coaching. Coach

The assertion made by T. J. Men-
denhall that the Virginia, Mendenhall's
sailer, was not In condition to race
when she lost the championship to
Frank Creasey's Sparrow Is answered
by a letter from Mr. Creasey, as fol
lows:
In readlnsr over the aquatic notes 01
Monday's Oregonlan, I note a comment
of T. J. Mendenhall's in regard to the
results of the races held during this
season at the Oregon Yacht Club. As
the champion yacht Sparrow Is the only
boat that has ever beaten Mr. Menden
hall's Virginia, we take that his com
ments are directed personally to the
Sparrow's owners. We, therefore, wish
to contradict the statement made, inas
much as Mr. Mendenhall's Virginia was
not several months late in reaching,
but was entered and beaten In the first
day's races of the season, and has been
in each of the 12 races held this year.
In regard to the balancing of his boat,
it seems that, when It has not been at
J. Danielson's work-shop, it has been
outclassed by other yachts which al
ways bring to light some new defects
of the Eastern design. He also states
that, if some of the other yacht owners
had sailed their own boat, instead of
getting cracks to do it, he would not
have been the loser. This statement Is
simply ridiculous, as every yacht sailed
in any of the races during the past sea
son has been sailed by Its owner. Fur
thermore, I wish to state that the
keenest Interest has been aroused since
the fables of the Eastern design boat
have been circulated. But, in spite of
that, the fact still remains that the
Sparrow, sailed by her owner, and de
