TIIE SUNDAY OREGONIAN. PORTLAND, SEPTEMBER 27, 1914. UREGQN NOW HEEDS FIRSTCLASSPUNTER Bezdek Keeps Awake Nights "Trying to Dope Out Win ning Combination. BECKETT, PHILBIN KICKING Carl Fcnton's Place Hard to Fill and Oregon Coaches Realize It, but Monteith, or Albany, Is Like ly Destined Candidate. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Sept. 26. (Special.) Hard work and lots of it has featured the daily prac tice sessions held at Camp Bezdek the past week. Signal drill, falling on the ball, tackling the dummy and hot skir mishes between the varsity and the strong second aggregation are some of the delicacies on the Dill of fare from which Coach Bezdek and his able as sistants select for the hungry squad each afternoon. Inexperienced and unseasoned mate rial has made the trials of whipping to gether a, presentable Oregon team all the harder, yet both coaches and men are "getting the spirit of the thing" and are making the most of the day light between the hours of 4 and 7 o'clock P. M. A tired and completely worn-out body of football candidates drag themselves to the gym each even ing. Last season a line of veterans greeted Bezdek upon his arrival at Kincald field. Caufleld, Fenton, Hall. Grout, Holden and Bradshaw were enough to warm the heart of" any mentor: this year all Is changed, the ranks are de pleted, and six stars of a past day have given up their collegiate pursuits for good. But two men of the 1913 line are scheduled for this year's team. . They are Beckett and Cook. Beckett is here and hard at work. Cook is due to ar rive at any time. It is these two hus kies around whom the coaches are pin ning their faith and hoping to build a line capable of combating successfully with other conference first selections. Besdelc Can't Sleep Kishts. "It keeps me awake nights trying to dope out a winning combination," grumbled the commanding general, "and I haven't got it yet by any means," he added. The development of a first-class punter still has the coaches in the air. Beckett and Philbln are worked hard along this line and report on the Held early for no other reason than to prac tice kicking. Their drives are improv ing, but both are far from what Carl Kenton was. Monteith, a freshman from Albany High School, is booting well and no doubt will be seen in this capacity on the "Frosh" team. "Skeet" Bigbee, Cornell's crack understudy, is still wearing civilian clothes on the sidelines. The doctors pronounced a wrenched shoulder as his chief ailment and the great, little, all-around athlete has been out of prac tice for several days. It is uncertain when he will be able to report again and "Bez" is taking no chances witn being left minus a dependable second string pilot; he has shifted Huntington, freshman from The Dalles, into the pivotal position on the "seconds." Snyder and Cawley Flay Guards. Snyder and Cawley have been seen regularly in the guard domains this week, and Indications point favorably toward them as the first selections. Snyder registered from McMlnnvllle. where he served hl apprenticeship on the high school team of that town. The sturdy freshman strips around the 200 mark and seems to possess the neces sary "scrap." Cawley came out of the East and is receiving his first taste of varsity company from the hands ot Hugo Bezdek. To date Cawley has proved himself a hard worker, willing, and a good fighter. "Bunny" Philbin and Johnny Beckett are cavorting around the tackle po sitions in a manner which warrants their being in the first lineup. Beckett, shifted from end, looks at home at tackle; his "prep" school training, re ceived from Coach Earl, of Washing ton High School, Portland, serves him to advantage, and it is likely that' he will remain in th position until the close of the season. Philbin, however, is a new man in a new place. At that. the ex-Columbia mainstay is putting up a grand type of football. , The old backfleld remains intact. This quartet, Malarkey and Parsons at halves, Bryant at full and Cornell at quarter, are kept mighty busy each minute of practice, and at no time are given to believe that they have their positions "cinched. Cornell and Malarkey Go Slow. "Nance" Cornell and Malarkey have been taking things easy; Cornell is favoring a torn leg muscle while Ma larkey nurses a fast disappearing cold. Bryant is fit. The training table now seats 17 men at the daily banquets. They are: Cap tain Parsons, Cornell, Malarkey, Beck ett, Powrie, Philbin, Dick Nelson, Caw ley, Snyder, Mitchell. Weist. Bryant. Cornwall, Monteith. Athletic Director Hayward and Coach Bezdek. Tegart and Sharp, Portland men are two new additions to the Bezdek squad who reported the first of the week. Wednesday. September 31, Is the date set for the first real campus game ot the year. Everett May will bring over his "yearlings'" from Corvallis to give battle to Bezdek's "babes," and a hot fight is sure to ensue. Last season the two "Frosh" teanie battled every inch of the way to a 7-all tie on the "Aggie" campus. ALL-STAR COAST TEAM PICKED J. Padden Names Lineup He Re lieves Would Be Strongest. A Pacific Coast League all-star team has been picked by J. Padden, catcher for the Columbia Park nine, as one that would vanquish any other similar or ganization, and ought to win 85 per cent of its games. Eight pitchers were selected, but this was done because several of them, such as Krause, Hig ginbotham, Klawitter and Lush could be used In the outfield in case of an emergency. The lineup follows: Fisher, Portland, catcher; Derrick, Portland, first; Kodgers, Portland, sec ond and captain; Bancroft, Portland, short; O Leary, San Francisco, third Carlisle, Venice; Ellis, Los Angeles, and Sayless, Venice, outfielders; Klepfer, Venice; Krause, Lush and Higginboth- am, Portland; Klawitter, Oakland: Ry an, Los Angeles; Fanning and Stand ridge, San Francisco, pitchers; Corhan, an a rancisco, utility infielder; Kane. Venice, and Speas, Portland, utility out fielders. BOB BCRMAX BREAKS RECORD "World's Mark Cuts 10 0-Mile Auto Figures to 94:29 3-5. KALAMAZOO, Mich., Sept. 26. A new world's record was claimed today when jsod isurman. me automobile driver. won a 100-mile race on a circular dirt track here tnls afternoon. His time was 94:29 2-5, said to be six minutes faster than the former record. FATE OF BUSH LEAGUE ARBITRATOR HOPELESS Henry Berry, Once Ardent Booster for Double-Umpire System, Changes Attitude That Is Unlikely to Affect Game. BT ROSCOE FAWCETT. IT is strange how some people's minds wander. " , Two or three years ago Henry Berry, of Los Angeles, was one of the first and most ardent boosters for the double umpire system. Also Berry was the big noise in the clamor for a double A rating. Apparently Henry's dream has been shattered rudely by the pinch of pov erty. Berry now-is quoted in a Los Angeles morning newspaper as favoring strong ly the abolition of the double umpire system in the Coast League. Henry, by chance, was a visitor at the games in San Francisco that Um pire Phyle handled single-handed and the impression it made resulted in his attack on the dual monarchy. It may be true that the single ar bitration can hustle his games along faster than the two men. but the fact is as plain as the. twist on a pig's tail thai one man cannot handle big league or near-big league games as satisfac torily as two. Expenses in the Coast League have been increased approximately $2000 a month since the advent of A. T. Baum as president and the consequent adop tion of the double umpire system. But the Pacific Coast now ranks sec ond only to the majors among all the leagues of baseball. As such it must wear the big league toggery, it must act like an AA league. Hen Berry's reformation is most de cidedly ill-timed in view of the San Francisco Exposition next year. It does not seem possible that the direc tors will indorse bush league arbitrat ing in their vote. One thing, W. W. McCredle will be found among the stand-patters at the final reckoning, is certain unless he, too, is hit by the tidal wave of reform. THE "cream of the minor leagues" that Harry Wolverton boasted of prior to the 1914 race has proved to be whipped cream. This suggests a query concerning the whereabouts of one, St. John, seer and astrologer, ex traordinary, who named Sacramento as the 1914 pennant winner. John proved a good guesser for sev eral seasons in a row but, like the Irishman who fell In the well while looking at the moon, he went in up to his neck when he did tumble. m m m AWpRLD'S series without marvel ous pitching would be like a Win ter overcoat without sleeves. And who do you suppose ranks as the greatest of these post-season performers? Look over these statistics of world's series pitching and try to decide: Few-hit Pitchers. W. L. t. Pet. so. r:nm.

First Time In Seven Tears Seattle Col lease Boya Let Goal Line Be Crossed ' on Clean Touchdown. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON, Seattle. Sept. 26. (Special.) For the first time in seven years the Univer sity of Washington football team was scored on iby a prep school today,,when the Aberdeen High School eleven, on Denny field, made one clean touchdown after running the ball down the field in open-field work. The university scorea a points; Aberdeen. 6. From today's performance one thing is most, cieany apparent: Washington has not a punter who will compare even with some second-rate high schools. Aberdeen outklcked both Smith and Miller. Washington's first showing of the season is even more disappointing than that of a year ago in the opener, when the Everett High School, a Btronger team than Aberdeen, held Dobie's men to a zb-to-o score. Many of Dobie'e veterans were, how ever, out of the game, among whom were toniei and seagrave. The Aber deen eleven is fast and scrappy and gave the purple and gold huskies a hard, snappy tussle in the second half. WILSON VICTOR IV THE SIXTH Galbrai til Loser at Silverton In Out matched Bouts. SILVERTON, Or.. Sept. 26. (Special.) The glove contest held In this city on Thursday evening, September 24, between Clyde Galbraith. of Woodburn, and Ray Wilson, of Silverton. was won by the latter in the sixth round. During thei first round Galbraith re ceived severe punishment and it seemed that he would not be able to continue long In the match. At the beginning of the second, however, he took the offensive and during all this round and the following one it was thought that he would be the winner. In the fourth the fighting was about evenly divided, Wilson having a shade the best or It. In the fifth Galbraith seemed to be weakening and received a number of stiff punches. While he responded man fully. It was evident that he was out matched. - At the start of the sixth Wilson started a stiff offense, which his opponent was not able to meet. To ward the close of the round Referee J. K. Mount sent the combatants to their corners and gave the decision to Wilson. XO PROFESSIONAL SELECTED Resignation of George Turnbull at AVaverly Is Surprise to Club. Who the successor to George Turn bull as professional of the Waverly Country Club will be is unknown to the officials of the golf club. Turnbull's resignation came somewhat unexpect edly and no man has been considered. Turnbull resigned to become tlw pro fessional of the Coronado links, In Cal ifornia. R. Wilder, who has charge of the matter as chairman of the greens com mittee, has opened negotiations with Chick Evans, of Chicago, who is ex pected to recommend a competent man.

COOMBS leads In the number - of world's series victories. Mathew son outshines all rivals in the num ber of shutout wins. Bender is the low-hit giant. Summers trails the list the most consistent loser. Clarkson ' was the early strikeout king. He fanned 28 men in four games in 1886, averaging seven to a game. Keefe outdid him in 1888 and Ed Walsh made the present record of 8.S whin's a game in 1906, when he fanned 17 in two games. Bill Donovan showed his class by fanning 12 in one 12-in-nlng game in 1907 and 16 in two games, for an average of eight. Eddie Plank in three years pitched six games in which only seven men were walked. This would be a world's record but for MathewBOn. tVhata a wizard is the redoubtable Matty. In 1905 he passed one man in three games, in 1911 two men in three games, in 1912 five men In three games and in 1913 two men in two games, a total of 10 men in 11 games or an average of .9 per game. Matty has pitched one five-hit and two four-hit games. He has won five of his 11 starts, tying another, with a team that has won only one world's championship in four attempts. With Matty, we would pick Bender, Plank and Brown as the greatest world's se ries hurlsmiths. Bender has won six of nine games and has pitched one three-hit, two four-hit and two five-hit contests. Pank has to his credit one two-hit, one four-hit and one "five-hit . game. Coombs helped Philadelphia win two Pennants, but Plank, Bender, Mathew son and Brown were four-time win ners. SPECTERLIKE, football is begin ning to stalk baseball to its lair. The coach without a prize bear story will be lost in the shuffle. The eleven with the most violent attacks of tuber culosis and ringworm generally wins the prize. Do your bear story popping early! - GILMOUR DOBIE. says the Univer sity of Washington football team will surely lose the championship this year because the other teams are all against him. , Har! Har! What does he want them to do? Kiss him? amateurs of the city will be seen in action. Already many of them are working out each day in the Newsboys' Club gymnasium until the new club's plant is in good working order. Manager Cohen is trying to obtain the service of Omar Dranga to be the third man In the ring of the principal affair. Jimmy Moscow is endeavoring to keep up his past record and from pres ent indications he is out for a banner year. Besides Moscow, Hyberg, Mas cot, Gordon, Waggoner, Allen, Frisbie, Eddie Hill, Don Derbyshire and Heulat will make up some of the goes for the first smoker. "31" SQUAD MEETS SETBACKS Rodes and Reck, Last Year's Stars, Missing From New Lineup. Three final entreaties, telegraphed to Rodes, the famous Navy quarter back who played with Multnomah last year, have failed to bring an answer and Captain COnvlll, of the Winged "M" squad, has given up the famous star and is preparing to fill his place with another man. Hargreaves, Who played with Wa bash five years ago, is the new man. He has not played since but a few trials on the field have convinced Con vlll that the man still has the speed and with a few drills will be able to fill the berth with ease. Still another disappointment has been met. Walter Keck undoubtedly will never appear in football togs again. The captain and star of last year was married during the Winter, and this, with other reasons, brought about his decision. From present indications, Multno mah's schedule will consist of two col lege games, with the Oregon Aggies and the University of Oregon. Other colleges have been approached on the subject but the possibilities of games seem small. Besides the ' colleges, games with Bremerton and the Vancouver Soldiers have been arranged, but those will com plete the schedule. LEWISTON READY FOR SHOOT Railroads Grant Reduced Rates for - Fourth Annual Tournament. LEWISTON, Idaho. Sept. 26. (Spe cial.) "The fourth annual registered tournament of the Lewiston Gun Club, to be held here October 5 and 6, prom ises to be the greatest event of its kind ever seen in the Pacific North west," said Fred E. Butler, president of the club. "Participants will be here from Portland. Tacoma, Seattle, Spo kane. Calgary and the southern part of the state.- Our local men are practicing daily, and if they make as good scores on the days of the shoot as they are now doing, many of the prizes and trophies will remain in the local camp." The Great Northern, Northern Pa cific, O.-W. R. & N. and the Camas Prairie lines have granted a fare and one-third for the round -trip from all points in Idaho, Washington and the southern part of Canada. Late Baseball Games Booked. Amateur baseball Is fast giving way to Fall and Winter sports, and a great many of the teams have disbanded for t&O season, partially for the reason that a number of the baseball players have now entered the football and bas ketball teams, and also owing to the unesttled condition of the weather and grounds it is hardly practical to ar range games from Sunday to Sunday. Of course, there will be a number of, teams who still desire to play base-' ball through the Fall months, and Spalding's booking department will be glad to lend any assistance possible for arranging these games. Six Nines Meet Today. Spalding's bookings for today are: Lang & Co. versus Columbia Hard ware Company, at Columbia Park, 1 P. M. : Lents Giants versus .Powers Furniture Company, at Lents, 2:30 P. M.; St. Andrews versus Columbia Park at Columbia Park, 3 P. 1L . MEET CHIP OB Rumors of Second Bout Are Floating About in Arena Air at San Francisco. FIGHT STAGED FOR TITLE Many Onsted From Australia on Ad. vent of 1ar Welsh Not Eager to Meet Ritchie Fans Expect Soon to See McGoorty. BT; HARRY B. SMITH. . SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 26. (Spe cial.) From the way things are stack ing up, don't be surprised to learn that Jimmy Clabby is matched with the winner of the George Chip-Billy Mur ray fight. The last named contest is set for adjudication September 30, and if the winner is pitted against Clabby, such a bout will take place the third week In October. Coffroth is prepared to advertise this as a match for the middleweight cham pionship of the world and he comes close to being right In that particular. Of course Jeff Smith has to be taken into consideration, but since the word comes that Jeff Is shortly to leave on his return to Australia, he will be out of the running. Some of the Easterners may con tend that Al McCoy must be given a mark, but when -you come down to fects. Al McCoy has never lived up to the reputation he made by his knock out of Chip. Indeed, since that time, lots of mediocre fellows have been handing McCoy a lacing. Chip has been regarded as one of the higher-ups and if he can repeat against Fighting Billy Murray, he will be more firmly established than ever. There is no question but that Clabby has a leg on the title. Of course there lsra certain amount of advertising In his contention that he is already the title holder and the fact that he is perfectly willing to go against the winner Is proof positive that he doesn't feel any too certain he has reached the top of the heap. Chip reached San Francisco the first of the week to wind up his training for the bout against Murray. The cut across the eye, received In training quarters, which was the cause of the postponement, seems to .have disap peared entirely and Chip announces that he s In good condition. He did quite a bit of work at Venice, where he ' has been spending the past ten dayg. Murray, also, has started in work now in preparation for the bat tle. This time, instead of being an afternoon affair, it will take place at night, in Coffroth's open-air arena on Howard street. Quite a crowd of fighters returned from Australia along with Clabby. To be frank, they were driven away on account of the war, which has natur ally killed off the amusement business. Quite a few had contracts for more fights, but Snowy Baker, who can see further than an Inch ahead of his nose, was ready to let them go. The party of returned scrappers in cluded Clabby, Manager Lichtenstein. Joe Welling, a Chicago lightweight who Is under Clabby's wing; Lee John son, the Oakland colored chap who made quite a hit with his clever style; Kid Lewi an English lightweight; Young Saylor, the Indianapolis 133 pounder and his manager, Roy Bron son. They bring word that Eddie Mc Goorty likely will hit San Francisco by the next boat and that Fritz Hol land, welterweight who away back hailed from the Northwest, has decided to make for home. Holland, while never a big drawing card in this coun try, made a few successful fights in the Antipodes and is said to have gathered' some coin for himself. Harry Pollok, manager of Freddie Welsh, is to the front once more with another of his publicity letters. Pollok gives out the information that pro moter Coffroth offered Welsh a guar antee of $50,000 for three fights, the promoter to name the opponents. Pol lok claims to have discovered a nigger in the woodpile. He says that Willie Ritchie probably figures he can sneak In as one of the opponents under such an agreement, -but that 'nothing Is doing. Coffroth, when interviewed, admitted that he had figured Ritchie as one of the opponents and added that without taking Ritchie into consideration, he could not give Welsh much of a guaran tee. Coffroth went still further to re mark that there are but two likely opponents In sight for Welsh Willie Ritchie and Charlie White. FOUR-TIME WINNER 13 NAMED Fan Points Out Club That Took Pen .nants Under Old System. PORTLAND, Sept. 26. (To the Sporting Editor.) In the sporting columns of The Oregonlan Wednesday the statement was made that no base ball club ever won four pennants con secutively. The writer has no base ball guide to refer to and Is depending upon his memory entirely, but believes that if you will Investigate you will find that the St. Louis Browns, with Charles Comiskey acting as captain and playing first base, won the cham pionship of the American Association in the years 1885, 1886. 188? and 1888. also incidentally winning the world's championship in a series of contests with the Chicago White Sox in 1886. They thus acquired the title of "four tlrne winners," which clung to them for many years. OLD-TIME BLEACHERITE. Note. Tour information is correct, but The Oregonlan did not say that no club had ever won four pennants in a row. It restricted Its field to "mod ern" baseball. 1. e., the present Ameri can and National leagues. FISHING GOOD ON NESTUCCA Employes ' of The Oregonlan Catch 2 75 Salmon and Cutthroat Trout. Thurston L. Johnson and W. H. Hab ernicht, employes of The Oregonlan composing-room; returned Thursday from a fishing trip of ten days on the Big Nestucca River at Beavet 16 miles south of Tillamook. During their.stay they caught 275 salmon and cutthroat trout, many of which measured more than 15 inches long. The river Is about the size of the Clackamas, cold and clear and very swift in some places. The first two days out, the men were unable to do much fishing, because of the heavy rains. The bait used, fresh . salmon eggs, had to be brought each morning by the Tillamook mail stage. From all accounts the fishing on the Nestucca Rlwer has been better this season than ever before, several fish having been caught which measured more than 22 inches, .. . .

OLD ELI SHOWS STRONG Crimson Develops Xew Kield Kicker, Alclnloch, Wlao May Take Famous Brlckley's Place Should He Ever Be Incapacitated. CAMBRIDGE. Mass.. Sept. 26. Har vard's football machinery got into ac tion for its first same of the season today and overwhelmed Bates, 44 to 0. Brlckley's famous toe was given no work, but the crimson developed a new field kicker in Mclnloch, who dropped a pretty goal from the thirty-eight-yard line. Rollins, another Harvard substitute, made the longest run of the game. 55 yards, for a touchdown. Numerous forward passes were tried by both teams, but in this department of play Bates proved far superior, pre senting an unusual formation, in which three men were sent out of the right wing. Vale Shows Great Komi. NEW HAVEN. Conn., Sept. 26. Yale's football team, playing a wide open offensive game and using many sensational forward plays, behind de ceptive formations, had no trouble In defeating the University of Maine 20 to 0 in the opening game of the season today. All the scoring was done In the first two periods. Yale scored another touchdown that was invalidated be cause of a penalty and Legore kicked a field goal that did not count because the ball struck a Maine player's back and bounded over the bar. Maine made only two first downs. The visitors presented a strong de fense and held the blue eleven for downs on the one-yard line Just as the game ended. Yale engineered eight forward passes, t-lx being successful, in addition to a dozen bewildering de layed and triple passes. Cornell Defeated, 9 to 3. ITHACA. N. Y.. Sept. 28. The Uni versity of Pittsburg again triumphed over Cornell at football today, win ning by a score of 9 to 3. Cornell scored In the first period when Barrett dropped a goal from the 15-yard line. The visitors forged ahead when Will iamson received a punt on his own 35 yard line and, aided by splendid inter ference, ran by the entire Cornell team for a touchdown. He failed to kick a goal. Hastings scored a field goal. In the final period Cornell's lack of open play was partly responsible for the defeat. The Ithacans had the ball on Pittsburg's four-yard line, but lost It on downs. Captain O'Hearn and several red and white players were hurt and forced out of the game. Princeton Employs Open Game. j PRINCETON. N. J.. Sept. 26. Prince ton won the first game of her football season today from Rutgers by a score of 12 to 0. Princeton employed the open game almost entirely, featuring the forward pass, which was responsi ble for the touchdown In the third quarter, Boland passing over vhe goal line to Brown for the score. Tibbott scored three points on a drop kick and a safely by Nash added the other two. Kutgeis used a new formation, mass ing all of their men behind the center and it was almost impossible to ttll who carried the ball, but the play netted them little ground. .
