(BY EARL R. GOODWIN.)
Attendance records for the Portland
Tnterscholaattc League are expected to
be broken this week, because two good
football games are on the boards. The
first is the Columbia University-Portland
Academy affair Tuesday afternoon,
while on Wednesday afternoon Wash
ington High will start Its annual tus
sle against the Lincoln High School on
Multnomah Field.
"Thirty five hundred or bust" is the
slogan that has been adopted by both
Manager Wallace McTarnahan. ot the
West Siders. and Manager Archie Roth,
of the Washingtonians. Each manager
took 1000 tickets as a starter and be
fore the time of the game more than
half that number are expected to be
disposed of.'
Academy Players Optimistic.
The Tuesday match between Colum
bia University and Portland Academy
will furnish followers of the local cir
cuit an opportunity to witness two light
and fast aggregations. Coach Calli
crate lias been unable to break into the
win column this year in two starts,
while as for the Portland Academy
representatives. Coach "Spec" Hurlburt
has been able to break "50-50" so far
during the campaign.
The academy players still feel that
they are to be reckoned with when the
1!)15 title of the Portland Interscholas
tic League is to be settled. The on
defeat charged to them came as a 9-to-3
surprise from the Jefferson High
eleven in the opening contest of the
ser.son for them.
Jefferson High has yet to be humbled,
for the second win credited with the
North-East Siders is from the stormy
3-to-0 victory over the Lincoln High
delegation on Multnomah Field last
Wednesday. As a result of that game
con.sidecable agitation has been started
In the circuit, mainly the protesting of
certain players on the various teams
of the league.
The game last Wednesday was de
layed more than an hour because Jef
ferson High School had protested Tom
my Richardson, the Lincoln High quar
ter, at "the last minute," according to
the West Siders. Captain Ray Groce
took the stand that the blue and gold
squad were taking advantage of a
technicality In the league rulings and
unless Coach Homer Jamison removed
the protest no match would be played
2000 Walt on Game.
Almost 2000 persons were present to j
see the game and when Dow V. Walker,
superintendent of the Multnomah Ama
teur Athletic Club, reminded the fac
ulty managers of the two warring
schools that If the game was forfeited
by Referee Francis it would be a
mighty hard proposition to refund
money, when it was taken Into consid
eration that the gate was made up of
60-cent tickets, 25-cent cardboards and
complimentary admissions, and there
was no way of telling which was
which.
Finally, after considerable arguing,
it was decided to play it off, and the
Railsplitters lost, 3 to 0. It was a des
perate battle all the way through, as
both squads were out for "blood" and
a win meant so much in the percentage
column.
Coach Stanley Borleske will have an
opportunity to do the "come-back"
stunt next Wednesday afternoon when
his warriors meet the heavy Washing
ton High squad. Coach Karl went
out against the Columbia University
tc.ni last week and won the game
without showing anything sensational
For this reason It has been impossi
ble for the other coaches to obtain a
direct line on the Washington High
School. Straight line bucks, with an
occasional delayed pass, was all that
had to be shown, although at that
Coach Callicrate's proteges had the
Kast Side High on the run there at the
last.
1913 Attendance Record.
The record attendance for a Lincoln
Hish-Waahington High contest was es

two schools are trying to boost the
mark even higher than in 1913.
In the annual battles, which date
back to 190. the ashlngtonlans have
managed to win five, while the West
Siders arc-credited with one less. In
1S10 It was necessary that two con
tests be staged and Coach Earl was
fortunate enough to take both, the first
5 to 0 and the second 3 to 0. So far a
tie game has never been played In the
annual set-to and every time but twice

ATHLETES VIE AT BERKELEY
Soniors Win IiiK?rclass Contests in
Final Relay Race.
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA,
Berkeley, Oct. 23. (Special.) The tn-terclass-
track meet has been held in
several sections this year, the first six
events being held Tuesday, the ret. ex
cept the relay Thursday, and ttre relay
between halves on last Saturday, tiur
ing the game with the Sherman In
dians. The meet was a handicap affair and
the 'first day's honors fell to the Sen-
'' pNvf-v ftf i lX i5 - I l: 1
iors. The one-mile relay was won by
them in 3:17:1. In the two-mile four
man race the sophomores also took the
lead, but the older men won 'out, with
an average time for each half-mila of
2:10:3.
The next events came two days later.
The junior team spurted into first place
on points, getting actual firsts in the
220-yard dash, the t ivo-mile mn and
the javelin.
The final and deciding contest was
the relay. Betore the event th score
stood: Juniors 37. seniors 34. sopho
mores 32, and freshmen. 23. The seniors
took this in and with it the meet.
2 MORE GAMES IN LINE
MULTNOMAH ELEVEN TO PLAY
OLYMPIC CLUB AT FAIR.
Contest With Tiromi Team Called Oft
Because of Light Weight Aber
deen Game Sought.
Two more games are all that are cer
tain for the Multnomah Amateur Ath
letic Club football team, according to
Manager Martin Pratt ' and Superin
tendent Dow V. Walker. Word was re
ceived yesterday that the Olympic Club
would form opposition to the wearers
of the cardinal and wnite on the Ma
rina at the Panama-Pacific Interna
tional n xposition in San Francisco No
vember 14.
This was the first definite word that
has been received from the south as
suring the locals that they would play.
The game was scheduled last August,
but, due to some unforseen happenings,
it was called off and later rescheduled.
so now It is certain that the two elevens
will get together.
The contest with the Tahoma Athletic
Club, of Tacoma, Wash., slated for yes
terday, was called off so Superintendent
Walker notified the Washington club
that it would be impossible to bring the
squad from Tacoma to play on Multno
mah Field next Saturday. The Univer
sity of Washington freshmen had little
trouble in walking on the Tahoma
Athletic Club team, so it was thought
that the team would be too light to cope
with the Portlanders on Multnomah
Field.
Although no games are in sight until
the middle of next month. Captain
"Red" Rupert has issued orders that
his proteges must report for practice
every Sunday orning. Tuesday and
Thursday night. A scrimmage has
been billed for this morning and
Manager John D. Dwyer has seen
to it that his second team be on hand.
Efforts are being made by Manager
Pratt to obtain a game with the Aber
deen. Wash.. Moose or the Vancouver
Barracks for Multnomah Field next Sat
urday. As yet neither one of the teams
has been lined up, but now that the
California trip is assured 'Captain Ru
pert would like to try out his players
soma more.
At present reservations are to be
made for a party of 20 to go down by
boat. The game with the Original
team of Oakland had to be called off
because of lack of time in California.
This was thought best, as the University I
of Oregon is due for Multnomah Field
on Thanksgiving day and ii would be
impossible for the Portlanders to get
back into condition for a hard setto
with the varsity.

Mayor Declares Half-Holiday
for Washington Game.
SECRET PLAY WILL START
Tentative Positions in Lineup Are
Arranged Training to Begin in
Earnest Astoria Boy Is
Working at Center.
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA,
Berkeley. Oct. 23. (Special.) With the
hig game only threr weeks away, the
varsity squad has gone into training
quarters where it will remain until the
team goes North to meet Washington
again, in Seattle, November 13.
Sixteen men have been named by
Coach Schaeffer, and a few additions
will be made as the time draws near.
K. C. Watson will manage the table:
Coaches Schaeffer and Smith and
Trainer Christie will live with the men.
Each aspirant will pay his own board.
The selections are: C. G. Canfield, R.
T. Hazzard. W. J. Duddleson. R. E.

Lockhart. W. B. Saunders. R. IX Gibbs,
W. R. Montgomery, VV. A. Russell, L. B.
Sharpe, J. H. Smith. H. K. White. .
Jack Smith, of Astoria, has been play
ing center consistently for the past few
games and seems to be slated for the
Job. His experience with the old game
up North gives him the advantage of a
knowledge of many trick plays that can
e worked from the king-pin position.
Dan Foster, of Portland, is considered
the best offensive quarter on the squad.
"Chief" Bender is "picked" for tackle
position In the big game. Brud Mont
gomery has been playing alternately at
quarter and half; his foot is one of the
most valuable afasetr of the team.
With the loss of Cohen, varsity end,
as the result of a broken jaw, the team
Is somewhat weakened at that point.
Already more than J10.000 has been
taken in for the big game, but a novel
plan to enlarge the aale of tickets has
been adopted. Free postcard and post
age were offered to all students who
would take the trouble to write to their
friends throughout the state, offering
their services in obtaining good seats.
The last bleacher rally was held
Thursday, under Yell Leader Les Brig
ham. Hereafter, none but members of
the squad will be allowed to view the
practice.
Mayor Irving, of Berkeley, has in
vited as his guests for the big game, all
the municipal heads and prominent
state officials of California and Wash
ington. They will be received at
luncheon at the new Shattuck Hotel and
will journey to the field en masse.
The Mayor has declared the afternoon
a half-holiday.

was played last night with the seniors

GOSSIP OF THE GRIDIRON
BY ROSCOE FAWCETT.
WITH two games scheduled for
this Fall between Washington
and California, it may be of in
terest to note that the only time these
teams ever have met was Thanksgiv
ing day. 1904. when Washington held
the big Berkeley eleven to a 6-6 tie
score. Both California and Stanford
were playing American football then,
quitting in favor of Rugby a year or
two later. Now California is back In
the American fold and Washington
seems to have all the edge on the dope.
Possibly California may spring a "crop
per" and scramble the form chart, just
as the Purple and Gold did 11 years
ago.
On that momentous occasion Cali
fornia boasted such renowned football
athletes as Heinle Heitmuller, who died
while a member of the Los Angeles
ball team about three years ago; Ben
Stroud. Claude Kern, Snediger. Fos
ter. Hoffey. Howard and others. Heit
muller did the punting and 50 and 60
yard kicks were nothing to the 200
pound tackle. On the Washington
side were such well-known men a
Dode Brinker, quarterback, now a ball
player with Vancouver; Hunky Shaw,
right half. another Northwestern
League ball player; Tom McDonald,
who captainized the Seattle All-Stars
in their seances with the Multnomah
Club two and three years ago; Bab
cock. Tllley. Grim and others. Shaw
made Washington's touchdown and
Brinker kicked goal.
Gonzaga College has enlisted the
support of the Spokane Chamber of
Commerce in its endeavor to break Into
the Northwest College conference. Ap
plication will be made at the December
meeting.
Coach Diets, of Washington State
College, says that in Tackle Applequist
and Halfbacks Bangs and Diets he has
three football warriors who class with
anything; on the Atlantic seaboard.
. . .
Washington State College defeated
Knehle, Devonshire. Knaps, Sharp. Mike
for a crowd of 400 enthusiasts, who
saw the juniors wrest an easy victory
from their opponents by a score of
20 to 0.
Enthusiasm equal to that character
izing the freshman-sophomore contest
Wednesday prevailed.
Wednesday, prevailed.
Between halves the juniors began a
victorious serpentine, but were routed
by the larger -number of seniors. After
the game further efforts to parade re
sulted in a class mix of huge propor
tions, which was won by the seniors.
Bicky Williams, the varsity pitcher,
was the star player for the winning
class. In the opening of the second
half he caught the ball from the kickoff
and ran the length of the field for a
touchdown. He kicked two goals from
touchdowns and often made large gains
through the senior line. Morgan, var
sity shortstop, playing halfback for
the Juniors, was also a consistent
ground gainer.
EVERETT BEATS JEFFS
PORTLAND ELEVEN LOSES HARD-
FOUGHT GAME. 7 TO 8.
Fumbles Characterise Play and One
Touchdown by the Washington
Team Is Disallowed.
EVERETT. Wash.. Oct. 23. (Special.)
Everett High School, undefeated for
five years, defeated Jefferson High
School football team, 7-6, this after
noon on Athletic field in the hardest
fought game played this year on the
Everett gridiron. Both scores were
made in the first quarter. Everett had
a chance for another touchdown In
the second quarter, but Quarterback
Walter Dailey dropped the ball after he
had carried it over the line. Walter
Dailey made five costly fumbles and
other members of the team failed to
hang onto the ball, losing at least two
touchdowns for Everett. Everett made
more yardage than Jefferson. Jeffer
son tried two place kicks, one of which
Everett blocked and the mother went
wild.
Jefferson made the first score a few
minutes after play started when Wal
ter Dailey, the Everett quarterback,
fumbled a punt on the Everett 40-yard
line and Rob Curry carried it over for
a touchdown for Jefferson and failed
to make goal.
A few minutes later a Jefferson man
fumbled a punt near his goal line. It
rolled over, and Fields, of Everett, fell
on it. Goal was kicked, making the
score 7-6.
Both teams made costly fumbles.
Both carried the ball well at times, and
both passed badly. The teams were
evenly matched.

Pacific Routs Mount Angel.
PACIFIC UNIVERSITY, Forest Grove.
Oct. 23. (Special.) Pacific University,
though outweighed, plowed through
Mount Angel College here today in the
first game on the home grounds and
won 27 to 7. The game was slow
owing to the fact it was played dur
ing a drizzling rain. Fuller played a
great game for Mount Angel. - v.; -
the University of Oregon, 28-3; Oregon
defeated Idaho, 19 to 7, and Montana
defeated Idaho, IS to 3. so Washington
State appears to be about 30 points
superior to Montana.
Continuing this line of reasoning.
Montana tied North Dakota, 10-10. and
Minnesota beat Noth Dakota. 41-0.
which would give Minnesota a 41-point
margin over Montana and one point
over Washington State College.
Or, on another tack. South Dakota
heat Montana. 12-7. we believe it wi
and South Dakota held Minnesota to
a 19-0 victory, giving Minnesota 24
points over Montana and six points
under Washington btate College. Rah.

Following the rules-framing session
in New York last Winter it was sent
out over the wires that coaches were
not to be allowed to sit on the bench
with their players. This rule was not
adopted ultimately, but In connection
with the proposal they are telling a
good one on . r. htewart, or the Oregon
Aggies. Dr. bewart was so busy
coachimr his Oregon Aggies that ha did
not notice the absence of the ruling
from the guide book. So, when Whit
man College played at Corvallis a fort
night ago. the Agglj coach stuck out
side the ropes, wandering around llki
a lost soul. untH the officials told him
he could sit with his players.

After Shades of Night Fall.
Team Cheered on Its Way.
BY LEO J. MALAR KEY.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene,
Oct. S3. (Special.) When Hugo Bez
dek. Bill Hayward, Captain Cornell and
the 15 remaining varsity men return
from Walla Walla tomorrow night, and
Monday afternoon trot out on Kincaid
Field for the first practice session of
the week, a new day in football will
be born at the Eugene campus.
The new day and its efforts will
point toward one purpose and one end
namely, the Oregon Agricultural College-Oregon
game which is brought
home this season to lemon-yellow stu
dents November-20.
Although there is yet another cam
paign to be fought before the Aggies
are entertained here, its importance is
not nearly so great as the interest in
the coming state scrap, yet the play
ing of Willamette is doomed to serve
its purpose as a factor In the rounding
off of the Bezdek machine and the
means whereby further repairs can be
made and new plays developed.
Defeat Marks Last Salem Visit.
It is likely that the Oregon dictator
will send some of his recruits against
the Methodists in Salom on that day,
and the tussle will do them good, from
the experience standpoint.
Historically speaking, the last time
an Oregon squad Journeyed to Salem to
engage in conflict with the Willamette
aggregation they were sent home hu
miliated by a 6-to-3 defeat. , A fumbled
punt which a Salem end recovered
back of the Oregon line gave Dr. Sweet
land's men a victory.
Next Saturday's contest in Salem will
close the pages in the book of pres
ent football history at Eugene until
the leaves are turned again for the
Aggie battle. For three weeks Hugo
and his class will do nothing but work
on "new stuff" for Dr. Stewart. Man

Change Noted Since Pullman Defeat.
Since Oregon met with such a sound
defeat at Pullman some weeks ago. a
sharp change has been noticed in the
ability of the candidates, plus the meth
ods in coaching.
"I am through mollycoddling you fel
lows," said Hugo in one of his famous
impromptu speeches. "From now on,"
be added, "you work, and work like a
real college football team has to. The
trouble with us all when we went to
Pullman was that there wasn't but one
or two men in condition: the remainder
of the squad was far out of shape."
Today there are two arc lights on
the edge of the lemon-yellow field, and
when darkness comes too dense the
V Juice" is turned on and Bezdek sends
his men through signal drill. Scrim
mage work at this Juncture is out of
the question, and until 6:30 the Ore
gon machine grinds in its little lighted
circle, charging back and forth while
the voice of their mentor pounds at
their backs.
Hard Practice Continued.
With the exception of Monday, dur
ing the week now passing. Bezdek con
tinually shot the first and second se
lections into hard practice. The first
day out. following the Idaho war, the
men were permitted to take out the
kinks and merely run signals, plus
dummy tackling practice. Scrimmage
wasn't permitted that afternoon.
Tuesday the big times began. The
freshmen furnished the opposition for
the varsity men. and, reinforced by
husky members from the scrubs, the
lighter "frosh" doled out some pretty
stiff resistance for the varsity. Back
and forth, back and forth the Oregon
mentor drove his panting men. Always
on the offense and never fast enough
to suit the head coach. Mistakes were
everywhere.
Departing Squad Is Cheered.
Thursday morning Oregon left for
Walla Walla, and the big majority of
the student body cheered tliem out of
Eugene. A. band blared forth, co-eds
sang and men rooted until the last
coach had faded from view. Back of
their team until the last minute is the
sentiment of the student body, and the
pangs of Pullman's humbling have
been forgotten in the playing and the
looking forward to of new games.
Today's engagement with Coach
Borleske ends the lemon-yellow travel
ing season for the year, with the ex
ception of the short Jaunt to Salem this
coming Saturday. Trips to Pullman
and Walla Walla are no small matters,
and the expense of some has been
great. -Football teams as a rule don't
relish long travel, and when the return
to Eugene is made, a happier mood
should te the lot of Bezdek's varsity
squad.
