Los Angeles Racer Crosses Tape at
Kew Twin City Speedway Just One
Second Ahead of Teammate.
Victor Gets $20,000.
IORT SNELLINO. Minn., Sept. 4. In
one of the most spectacular and closest
finishes ever witnessed at the end of
& 600-mile motor race. Earl Cooper,
of Los Angeles, today won the first
motor derby over the new Twin City
Speedway. Cooper was less than cne
second ahead of his team mate, Gil
Anderson, of Indianapolis, who finished
second. O'Donnell was third. The
official time of the three cars was:
Cooper. 5 hours. 47 minutes and 29
seconds; Anderson, 5 hours, 4? minutes
and 30 seconds. Cooper's average speed
for the race was 86. S5 miles, per hour.
O'Donnell's time was 6 "hours. 20
minutes 25 seconds.
By his victory Cooper, who drove an
American car, won $20,000, Anderson
won tlO.OOO; O'Donnell $4500. and the
remainder of $5000 was divided pro
portionately among other drivers to
complete the long grind. Tom Alley
finished fourth in. the race. His time
was S hours.' 24 minutes and 44 sec
onds. Cooper Relieved for 118 Miles.
Cooper, who drove an exceedingly
well-judged race, was relieved for 11$
miles by John Aitkin, of Indianapolis.
Anderson also was relieved for a
short distance by Tom Hooney, of
Indianapolis.
Drivers declared that conditions of
the Chicago and Indianapolis courses
were greatly superior to that of the
Snelllng course and that the rough
parts- made record time impossible.
Several of the leading entries
dropped out during the first 200 miles.
"Bob" Burman was the first of those
to be eliminated. He withdrew after
holding nrst position for nearly 30
miles.
Favorite Rots Drops Out.
One of the surprises of the race was
the withdrawal of Darlo Resta, whose
French car shot into the lead early In
the contest A broken oil pump forced
his withdrawal at the end of 61 laps.
He held fourth place at the time. Resta
was the favorite before the race.
Ralph Mulford dropped out after
thundering: around the oval for lis
miles. A broken spring was the cause.
A defective valve put Henning out.
After a terrific spurt which placed
him in second position, engine trouble
forced Ralph Palma out of the running
at the 190-mile point. He was another
strong favorite of the day.-
After the first 100 miles Anderson
and Cooper pushed into the lead and
gradually widened the distance be
tween their cars and those of their
closest competitors, and for the next
300 miles the load see-sawed between
the two.
Only nine of the 14 cars that started
remained In the race when one half
of the entire distance had been cov
ered. Eight cars finished.
C75 MO REPORT AT STANFORD
Students Enthusiastic to Begin
Training for Kugby Season.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY. Cal.. Sept
4. (Special.) With the largest turn
out for Rugby football that has ever
been made in California, the Stanford
students automatically voiced their
opinions against a return to the "old
game" and decided to play Rugby for
at least another year.
When Captain "Danny" Carroll issued
the call for football men, 275 huskies
answered, a number which exceeds the
record squad of last year by at least
25 men. A game with the Rugby team
of the Olympic Club will be played
September IS and the first and second
squads will be picked before that time
The "big game" of the season will be
played in San Francisco on November
13 with the University of Santa Clara.
In an open student body meeting this
week men of the faculty and students
scored the University of California (or
the stand that they had taken in the
return to the old game, and it is doubt
ful if athletic relations with California
will be resumed for some time.

Portland Man Returns From
Hunt on Kilchis River.
GAME FOUND PLENTIFUL
Two Hounds and Airedale Are TJsed
by Robert Lovell Wtfson and
Party --Typical Mountaineer Is
Host for Tillamook Outing.
Robert Lovell Wilson returned last
week from a successful bear hunt in
which he srot six bears in Ave days'
hunting in the Coast Range, on the
Kilchis River, 15 miles beyond Tilla
mook. .During his stay in the mountains
Mr. Wilson stopped at the cabin of
"Dad" Thomas, an old friend, whom
Mr. Wilson declares is one of the best
bear hunters in the business today.
In the section where the bears were
killed there were only a few hunters,
according to Mr. Wilson, although all
sorts of game appeared plentiful.
Two Hounds and Airedale Used.
In hunting the party, composed of
"Dad" Thomas, his son, William, and
Mr. Wilson, used two hounds and an
Airedale. The hounds proved the
best for bear hunting. Mr. Wilson
used a .22 high-power rifle weighing
six pounds, with a velocity of 2800
feet a segond. which he declares is Lhe
best gun for bear hunting. Mr. Wil
son is no mean hunter, having fol
lowed the paths in all sections of the
United States, as well as in the Cana
dian Rockies.
He left Portland by train to Tilla
mook and then, after reaching the
town by the sea., set out on the jaunt.
Bear meat was a part of the menu
served that evening. There is a steep
mountain back of the Thomas cabin
and a bear was seen there. The dogs
were turned loose and bayed It in a
canyon, where it was shot by "Dad"
Thomas.
Another Trip to Be Made In Canada.
"Dad" Thomas is a typical moun
taineer, according to Mr. Wilson, and
has numerous furs and hides which he
has dressed himself that would rival
the best taxidermist display in the
land.
Mr. Wilson reports that jack sal
mon nave started to run in that sec
tion and the run wfll be on in full
blast within a couple of weeks.
The elder Thomas has a younger
son of 12 years who is the best fish
erman in that part of the country. He
uses nothing but an old hook and a
piece of twine. Several times ho has
been given nne outfits by anglers, but
always disposes of them and goes
back to his birch rod.
Next year Mr. Wilson intends hunt
ing again in the Canadian Rockies
with the elder Thomas and his son,
William.
RUGBY TENDENCY HURTS
CALIFORNIA CLASS TEAMS PLAYING
A M F.RICA fc'OOTU ALL.
Coachew Find Difficulty In Teacnlnff
Players to Hun- the Ball nnd
Fumbles Are ireqiicnt.
UNIVERSITY O F CALIFORNIA.
Berkeley. Sept. 4. (Special.) Califor
nia students are rgain witnessing a
"real game of "ootball," and wearing
the pads never seen In rugby. To give
the players something definite to work
for at this time au interclass series
has been arranged.
Thus far the juniors have been vic
torious, due in a reat measure to
the good work of Jack Smith, of As
toria, and Bill Smith in the back field.
If predictions can be venturod at this
early date a berth on the 'varsity fcr
these two men seems secure. They
were both stars at rugby.
The style of play to be used by
Coach "Jimmy" Schaef er is not yet
evident, as rudimentary plays are the
only ones yet given out. There s a
tendency, though, on - the part of the
players themselves to play a somewhat
open and fast game with considerable
dodginef.
No .ess than ten assistant coaches
have donated Their time and service t
4-
the task of teaching the mass of play
ers how to hold, catch, kick and fall
on the ball. In rugby it is absolutely
necessary to hold tne ball away from
the body to mako a Ion,? pass, and it
Is very difficult tD teach the men to
hold the ball close to th-s body. Fum
bles, therefore, are frequent.
Every man is allowed to play every
position on the team, and it is figured
that by this method no dark horses
will be allowed to escapo.
Cha?idlor, former Michigan ptar, and
one of the best known American foot
ball players in the East, is umpire of
the interclass series. Assistant Coach
Andy Smith, also a Tost product, will
referee.

Those press agent boys are working
overtime boosting the Paekey SIc-Farland-MIke
Gibbons Dattle that is to
be pulled off at tne Brighton Beach
stadium. Coney isiand. New York, next
Saturday.
From all indications the typewriters
wlll have to hum and the sporting edi
tors o-- the country will have to be
rather liberal with their space if the
big marathon draws enough to square
accounts. It will take quite a crowd
to make up that $32,500 purse that the
boy from the stockyards and the St.
Paul phantom will split, not to men
tion the incidental expenses and a
profit for the promoters. All told this
ten-round bout wiil make soma ring
history.
The man whose name has been given
out as the one who put up the coin
for the purse is William C. Marshall.
He has never managed a boxing match
and has had nothing to do with the
game heretofore.
Fight la Business Venture.
He started the McFarland-Gibbons
battie as a business venture, pure and
simple. He had never witnessed a
boxing bout until the time he arranged
with a New York sporting writer to
put on the impending battle.
He first went to New York after fin
ishing a large contract for the Central
Pacific, to visit his cousin. Chauncey
Marshall, Jr., of the Brighton Baths.
He ts financially Interested In the
Brighton Batiis property and was look
ing the place over when he met the
Gotham sport scribe that suggested
the staging cf the battle.
According to reports from both box
ers.' camps they are hard at work for
the contest Mike recently came forth
with the statement that he would send
Packer out via the dreamland route
Packey Shows Briskness.
In a recent bout with "Soldier" Bart
field, of Brooklyn, who is considered a
comer 1 Kew York, the St. Paul boy
did not show to a great advantage. As
a result of his showing with the
Brooklynite writers have begun to
predict that he will have to go some
even to in over McFarland.
In the meantime Packey is showing
a briskness in his training that is
causing a good deal of favorable com
ment in his favor. He recently said:
"I am satisfied with my condition
and my boxing. I am surprised myself
in the manner in which the old skill
has come back to me."
Back once more to the fans' opin
ion of the coming bout we turn, to find
that they are not warming up to it as
was at first expected they would. So
again we say that it will take a deal
of press-agenting to swing the bout
and make a go of it-

Judge" O'Rourke Returns From
Trip East and Sajrs Ralph Cap
ron Is Coming to Portland
and Might Play Here.
Just two weeks from next Saturday
Captain Rupert and his Multnomah
Club football players will step onto
the gridiron at Eugene, Or., to tackle
the University of Oreiron representa
tives. For this reason Captain Rupert
has issued practice calls for this morn
ing;, starting at 10 o'clock, and for
Tuesday and Thursday nisrhts.
Just the number of old-timers and
stars who will be out is unknown at
present, but even though the weather
man brought out 77-desree tempera
ture last Sunday an even dozen donned
the moleskins. Most of tho aspirants
will work out rather lightly, trying to
get down to condition for a strenuous
season.
"Judge" O'Rourke, the giant Winged
"M" lineman, returned Friday night
from the Bast, where he was called
by the Illness of his mother. O'Rourke
left here August 10, and while trav
eling he met many of thtt famous play
ers of the days gone by when he him
self was a college boy.
Ralph Capron. said to be the great
est open-neld runner ever developed
in the Fast and who played at Minne
sota around 1909. is figuring on coming-West
the first part of next month,
and In this event Multnomah Club will
receive his services. Re is a brother
of George Capron, who played baseball
with the Seattle team of the North
western league a couple of seasons
back.
Another football warrior who con
templates a visit to the West and who
has been lined up by "Judge" O'Rourke
is Art Smith. Smith received the sec
ond choice for ail-American halfback
while at Notre Dame in 3&12, and like
Capron he has been playing the game
ever since he left school
"Judge" was some motorist while in
the Fast. He motore-l frr.m Minneap
olis to Detroit and return, and for a
couple of days he took up golf for a
change. He will be unable to come out
this morning for practice on Multno
mah Field, he says, because he needs
the rest after such a tedious homeward
Journey last week. Whether or not he
will be able to get into condition for
the contest against the University of
Oregon will not be determined until
later In the week.
As yet Manager Pratt has been un
able to line up any new games tor the
wearers of the cardinal and white. The
one big trip of the season will be to
the Panama-Pacific International Ex
position, when a football tourney to
decide the 1915 club championship of
the Paeific Coast will be held at San
Francisco early in November. The
number of players to make the journey
will be decided later by Superintendent
Dow V. Walker, Captain Rupert and
Manager Pratt.
Natatorium Park is to be the scene
of all football games played in Spo
kane. Wash., this Fall, with the excep
tion of the annual Lewis and Clark
North Central High School Thanksgiv
ing day embroglio. Manager Fugene
Russell, of Gonzaga College, signed a
contract with Manager C C. MeEach
ran. of Natatorium Park, to have the
field fixed up for play.
All but one of the high school games
will be played on the new field. The
reason that the North Central-Lewis
and Clark match is played at Recrea
tion Park Is because Gonzaga College
will be meeting Washington State Col
lege on the Nat grounds on the same
day.
Arrangements have been made to
have the field resodded and put in
first-class condition for a strenuous
season. The south side hill will be ter
raced and seats put In to accommodate
3000 spectators, not Including the new
bleachers which are being erected.
Dr. G. J. Sweetland. Jr.. who coached
the Willamette University football
team to a 6-to-3 victory over the Uni
versity of Oregon famous aggregation
of 1913. will remain another year as
athletic and physical director of Ho
bart College. Geneva, N. Y. He was
well pleased with the team he got to
gether for the last couple of games last
season and he expects to do as well
again.
"I see Syracuse University will play
!n Portland this Fall." he writes to a
friend here. "The first half of last sea
son Syracuse was powerfully strong,
beating University of Michigan 20 to 0.
Syracuse expects a powerful team
again, the best In fact It ever had, but
they will need It in Portland. The
Bast has no opportunity of knowing
the high grade of football played by
the Northwest colleges, and I am
mighty glad to learn that Syracuse is
going West-"
