L TNOMAH SQUAD BETTER THAN EVER Even With Loss of McRae, End, Pete Rodes, Quarter, Team Looms as Winner. PRACTICE BEGINS TODAY Plenty of Outdoor Vacationing Puts Men in Fine Shape McVeagh and Bradshaw May Join Big Kleven. Even with the loss of End McRae and the possible absence ot Pete Bodes at quarter, there is every probability that the Multnomah football squad, under the management of Martin Pratt and the captaincy of Convill, will be a .still better aggregation than last year's squad, which was generally considered about the strongest club team in action in the state. First practice starts this morning on the club field. As Pratt said recently, there is one very good reason for this, namely, the fact that the majority of the men are in first-class shape. To most of them training rules are nothing more or less than a matter of dally habit and per sonal preference. Quite a number on the roster never touch anything at all In the way of stimulants, and a lot of them are in first-class trim before they ever turn out for a game. All Player Fit. This, of course, doesn't mean that they will not be stiff and sore after the first game, because there are muscles to be called Into play which have not been In use for some time, but the men are fit as a fiddle. Convill. for instance, is at work out of doors all the Summer. Bailey has been pitching hay. while Keck has had a houseboat on the river all Summer and is out rowing or swimming a great deal. This is Just an instance of what the majority of the boys are doing all the time. They are not old-time stars out of the game and out of practice with the need for lots of training and much persuasion to get them to turn out. They do not look like a menagerie of prehistoric animals suffering from an over-abundance of adipose tissue, like many a club team in other sections of the country, which is trotted out so that spectators can look with jeers on the old-time notables and whistle "How Are the Mighty Fallen." No! There is nothing like that about the Multnomah squad. They are out to win, and all of last year's team had their minds made up at the conclusion of the season that they would be don ning the moleskins again this year. Hence the strength. Only Two Absent. For the first practice tomorrow Pratt expects every man of last year's team out with the exception of McRae, who will not be seen in harness, and Bodes, who is still back East. McRae recently was graduated from the medical school and has taken up a practice in Eastern Oregon, while Bodes wrote to Pratt re cently that he might be out here later on and that again he might not. Roger MacVeagh possibly may take Bodes' place. He has all the grit in the world and is a good player, but is really too much on the small side, even though strongly built. Another who will be out for the same position is Patterson, the Lincoln High quarter back star of two seasons ago. Bradshaw, the U. of O. captain of 1913, who is out of the city just now, should make a fine substitute at end for Mc Rae, and Pratt is hopeful of landing him, as he joined the club only recently and is only away temporarily. After today's practice, which begins at 10 A. M., there will be night practice twice a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays. CHECKERS BY W. L. BRYANT1.

REGATTA DECLARED OFF YACHT CLUB MEMBERS WILL ENJOY CRUISE AND PICNIC MONDAY. Cup Race Postponed Thursday Night Will Be Held Tuesday, Though First Position Is Settled. Thfl Labor dav regatta of the Oregon Yacht Club has been declared off, but sport will not be lacking. For the most part, the big sail and gaso jacnis win j . rivor I'orrvinz merry makers for a picnic, liaif way down Sauvie s Islano. Some started last night, others leave today and in all about a dozen boat ...m Hnwn thprft for the big dinner and sport of Labor day. The re. turn will be Monday nmm. The river is so low that good yacht races were somewhat of an impossi bility in the vicinity of the yacht club and so many of the sailors proposed taking the two days for a final cruise, that the officers changed the plan to suit the majority. However, there still will be open house and a social time at the yacht club. Dancing will be in order at night on the club's terraces and many of the houseboat dwellers will be at home to friends during the afternoon. The cup race which was called off on Thursday night, because of lack of wind, will be staged Tuesday night, but Captain H. F. Todd has the cup practically "cinched" now with his Grayling. There still is a fight for the other k.uM.i whiiA this officially ends the season, yachting on the Willamette will be continued lor anomer monui. HOUSING PLAN PROPOSED British Measure "Would Provide Places for Workers. LONDON. Aug. 31. Houses for the workers, In rural areas and at Rosyth, are to be provided under schemes in cluded in a government bill Introduced by Mr. Runciman in the House of Commons. For rural housing $15,000, 000 is to be spent, while for Rosyth, a great naval base with a big popula tion in the near future, the cost Is limited to $10,000,000. Mr. Runciman also asked leave to bring in a bill to give the board of agriculture and fisheries powers re specting housing in agricultural dis tricts and to make provision for the housing of persons employed by or on behalf of government departments where adequate dwelling accommoda tion was not available. At present there is a lamentable want of housing accommodations in certain districts. Concerning Olotlies. (Washington Star.) "These new fashions." said the se vere woman, "are positive burlesques." "They do seem rather In the nature of travesties on good form," replied Miss Cayenne. "But wouldn't you rather describe some of them as mere take-offs?" Hlstory-snd-Clrcus Dates. Exchange. .

Her Claim for Her Interpretation Is That Miss September should Smile. Possibly the Original Sub ject Did Wot Have as Warm Water as the Willamette Is These Days. Good Crowds Still Go Bathing Dally. CLUB'S NEW GROUNDS OUT AT the weekly breaking of clay saucers. The new location of the Gun Club, at Linneman. is partly to be blamed for added interest in the game around Portland. The new home is now receiving its finishing touches, and the beauty of the home, together with Its accessibil ity, easily will be a big factor In bring ing out crowds to the traps. Also the high water no longer will be able to stop the Spring and Winter shooting at the traps. The old loca tion at Kenton effectively put a dam per on the sport when the Columbia River took possession of the grounds. Probably 75 guns will make scores nest Sunday. The Multnomah trophy will be shot for on a handicap basis. This cup is the one donated by Frank Howe, one of the shooters, who fath ered the game here about 15 years ago. The Hercules trophy goes to the high gun or the day. Following the shoot ? ,.,,.,.,. will take nlaee on the grounds. The Gun Club has opened its house to any inenuo may bring.

The preliminary survey being con ducted by Aggie fans here shows "Doc" with a shattered backtleld, and a line with Chrisman missing, but with a number of second stringers and new men from which nucleus he should be able to find material to take the place of the departed ones.

JUST like any oiner rwnj wiue awake business man, the minute we heard of the ZIm-Evers fight, this of course was not in the squared cir cle, we racked our brains and those of the office boy at one and the same time. Now while the office boy gets his racked at all times and oft in the stilly night to boot, we never trouble ours without reason or for the sake of rhyme. In this cae the reason was that we felt sure Evers had been responsible for Zim's greatness. And so it turned out. The nerve and b.rain-racked O.

The pronunciation of the word reveille has almost caused another war. Some circles have been known to pronounce it "revile"; others "reval ley." like the British Tommy Atkins, who never could get the Frenchman's language into his head: others again, presumably from the East Side, say "revale," while a few on the Heights call it "re-vay-e." A small band also have been heard to say, with bated breath, "rev-ely." This will explain the following paragraph. Perhaps! Writing from deille to deille, "Sounding the Sport Reveille."

Other than the absent regular Cook, Bryant, Holder, and Beckett and the old men now here, the recruits appear to be the cream of the new ma terial which will register !n college this semester. Camp was made Wednesday. After an old-fashioned dinner suitcases were unpacked, an hour's rest enjoyed, and the varsity football season was ushered In with punting and paaslng the ball. This was followed by a slow two-ralle . run and a plunge. Thursday work was of the same order, only more of It. "Falling on the ball" was added. Athletic Director Hayward intends making each day a little more strenu ous than the one before. This will place signal practice on the bill of tare by Monday. The squad gradually rounded Into form In thla manner will enable Besdek to send the freshmen against the varsity a few days after the return to Eugene. AddKlnns Kxpecled Monday. By Monday ten more hopefuls are expected. Among them will be Calll aon, a husky Eugene tackle.

"Skeet" Blgbee, Hen dricks, Brown and Dick Nelson, mem bers of the freshmen and second teams, are showing to advantage.
