HARD SCHEDULEJS TELLING Allen,- Whose Work Was Big Sur prise of Michigan Invasion. May Not "Be Able to" Enter Game and Otlters, Too, Disabled. OREGON AGHTPIII.TIIU AT. -.-T.Tcr!Tr! Oorvallis. Nov. 13. (Special.) Before every important athletic contest many seii-styiea authorities on the came in question blossom forth with varying predictions as to the final results. Such is the case on the Oregon Agricultural College campus, and too many ot those wno have followed the progress of the orange and black machine through its successes since midseason are predict ing a victory for Stewart's men when they ljne up against Mr. Bezdek's eleven at Eugene next Saturday for the annual football classic, the goal toward which both teams direct the strongest enorts or tne season. However, those who have been able to pierce the armor of secret practice which has prevailed during the latter part or the week and glean some real information regarding the present status of the team, are not so optimistic and predict that one of the most strenu ous battles ever staged in the North west will take place when the opening whistle blows on Kincaid Field next Saturday afternoon. t- Comparative Scores Show Edge. According to comparative scores based on the Idaho and Whitman games Stewart's men have a slight edge on the university athletes, having Tui up 40 points on the Gem Staters while the lemon-yellow aggregation was unable to. do better than a 19-7 score. They won from Whitman 34-7, and the uni versity team defeated the same aggre gation 21-7. .On the other hand, the effects or trie hard schedule are beginning to bo iclt by the orange and black athletes, and their work this week has been several degrees below par, contrary tp the ex pectations of their followers based on the record against the Michigan Aggies and the University of Idaho. But the team is fired with its old spirit to meet Oregon. To add to the troubles of the director of the Aggie football destinies, Allen, with a strained tendon; Schuster, nursing a sprained ankle, and Allworth, who nas not yet recovered from the injury to his back received in the Michigan game, have been un able to participate in the scrimmage doled out this week. Condition of Allen Doubtful. It is expected that Allworth and Schuster will be able to take their places by the middle of next week, but it is doubtful if Allen will be in condition for further service before the Syracuse, game in Portland De cember 1. The work of Allen has been the sur prise of the season in Northwest foot--ball circles. Reporting late in the sea son, he was regarded as a promising candidate for a second-string position at end or in the middle of the line. The removal of Billie to end provided the opportunity for him to show his work in the backfield which has been of the highest type. In the Michigan game, he was second only to Abraham in gaining yardage against the East erners and Eastern papers, rated him as one of the best halfbacks in the country. Beginning Tuesday afternoon. Stew art's men were put through two hefurs of stiff work each night. Long after the city lights were shining, the men were splashing through mud and water in fast signal practice. Secret Practice Is Began. Secret practice began Wednesday night and will continue until next Fri day. A stiff scrimmage session with the freshmen team opposing the var sity took place Thursday night and the yearlings were able to score two touch downs on the battle-scarred and wobbling veterans. Following the discouraging exhibi tion the head coach announced a vaca tion until Monday when he hopes to find the athletes fully recovered from their slump and ready for the final preparations for the big game. That hard work will feature the programme is the assurance of Doc Stewart. He does not like to take chances on the possibility of crippling some of his best men. but said that he would lather have eleven men in prime con dition available for the game than a larger number stale from light ex ercise. As the time for the big game draws near, with the Aggies generally con ceded the long end of the final results the supporters of the orange and black are wondering if the jinx will again appear to smash their hopes as during the past three seasons. Back in 1912 the Aggies entered the game the favor ites and lost. Two years ago. again the favorites they were held to a 10-13 tie after apparently having the game safe ly stowed away. History repeated it self last year when the score was again tied by the narrowest margin after the game was considered won and a defeat was only averted by the remark able work of Art Lutz in coming in from an angle and downing the speedy Wiest who had an open field before him. LlEl'ALLEX SCHOOL LADS WIN" Arleta Eleven Is Overcome for 12 un round Championship. Coach Lieuallen tutored the Arleta Orammar school football team to a 2ft to 24 victory over the Shaver Gram mar school eleven on the losers' grounds, thereby winning the 120 pound championship among the Port land Grammar schools. Both tennis made four touchdowns, but the Arleta players managed to kick two gtjal kicks while their opponents were un able to convert one. Jess Phelps made two or the touch downs for the winning aggregation, and his teammate, Virgil Foote, put across the other two. Phelps also made the two goal kicks. Following are the players who made up the win ners: Jesse Phelps. Virgil Foote. Ralph Borrelli, Clair Carney, Michael Keo. Lawrence Clow, Burton Compston Harry Day, Walter Jacobs, Earl Lewis and Floyd Marshall. Aberdeen High Seconds Tie Elm a. ABERDEEN. Wash.. Nov. 13. fSne- cial.) The Elma High School and the Aberdeen high school teams battled to a 7-to-7 tie here this afternoon in a preliminary to the Aberdeen High School-Columbia game. With two minutes -to play Elma rushed the ball from the center of the Held to within live yards of the Aberdeen coal. The name ended at that point. The teams were evenly matched, in the morning the Aberdeen High School midgets de- feated the Cosmopolis High School 26 to 0 in a game featured by brilliant for ward passing.

TIE PLAYED YEARS AGO Game at San Francisco Exposition Today Is to Be Contested for Championship of Pacific Coast Athletic Clnbs. When the Multnomah Amateur Ath letic Club football team trots out on the Marina at the Panama-Pacific In ternational Exposition in San Fran cisco, to meet the Olympic Club eleven this afternoon it will not be the first time these two institutions have met on the gridiron. In 1899 the local team battled to a nothing-to-nothing count with the San Francisco representatives, so today's embroglio will open new hostilities. The result of the game will give the winner the 1915 club football cham pionship of the Pacific Coast. The players who are wearing the winged "M" colors in the South today are considered to be the greatest ag gregation ever brought together under the roof of the 'Portland club. Each one has seen strenuous seasons on the gridiron. The Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club started playing football in 1891 and since then has been a strong contender for honors.

INTRICACIES OF FOOTBALL CAUSE GRIEF FOR UNSCHOOLED OFFICIALS Rules Require Close Study, but at Any Time Play May Come Up Which Will Make Ablest Referee or Umpire Think Quickly to Avert Error Interpretation Often Left by Committee to Officials. BY ROSCOE PAWCBTT. (Referee of 100 Football Games in Past Five Years.) FOOTBALL is as full of intricacies as a pumlcestone is full of holes, and many amusing and some few serious experiences have fallen to the lot of the gridiron officials. Very few changes have been made in thb texture Vif the xules in the past year or two, but it used to be back in, 1910, 1911 and 1912, wholesale read justments of the game were made ev ery Winter. And invariably, the so lons in the East prescribed the changes and then left it to the officials on the field to work out their practicability. As a result, conflicts in the rules were numerous, and only those offi cials keen enough to discover these flaws in time to write East to the rules committee really knew what they were doing. Best Officials Are Masters. Even now it is nec?ssary to hold fre quent "interpretation" meetings, but in the main, the first-class officials are. masters of every conceivable tech nicality. During our careeV on the lime-ribbed gridiron in an official capacity we have bumped into our share of the knocks and idiosyncracies of the game. Of the many unusual and weird ex periences, one at Wenatchee, Wash'., in the Fall of 1910, stands out boldly. Wenatchee and Spokane were play ing for the Washington state cham pionship, and, in those days Wenatchee took an especial pride in Its football team. The game was played on a field in Wenatchee that was one-half quag mire and one-half snowbank. The lines Ira the mud were marked in white chalk and in the snow with red chalk. Owing to the almost impassable foot, ing. neither team expected to score. Spokane relied upon its place and drop kicking artists -we believe Durham, of Washington, State, was with the Spokanes that Fall and Wenatchee, it later developed, placed sublime faith on a special trick play that was to be worked after an out of bounds. Play Framed Regardless of Kales. At a given signal, one of their half backs was to be forced out of bounds, and immediately his team was to rush out on the field about 15 yards, the center was to snap the ball back, and it was to be passed to a waiting end far over on the other side of the field. Everything worked out according to Hoyle. Foster, who later played full back for Washington State, made a beautiful heave to one of bis half backs, who raced almost to the goal line before being thrown. Unfortu nately the Wenatchee coach had over looked a rule in the book. This rule provided, first, that time shall be taken out for all. out of bounds, and. second, that after time the referee shall first ascertain from each captain if he is ready before blowing his whistle for a resumption of play. Wenatchee's trick play was, plainly illegal and the ball was called back despite loud lamentations and protes r I a r mm w-m WINS 1B-7 Brown Subs Beaten by Team of Because of Fumbles. CORNELL TAKES HARD GAME Washington and Lee Leads Ithi cans, 21-7, in Firjst Half, but looses, 40-21 Penn and " Michigan Tie. CAMBRIDGE. Mass.. Nov. 13. Har vard today disposed of Brown, 16 to 7. without spending any of tlie strength saved fpr the rejuvenated Yale team in the big name of the season next Saturday. The Crimson eleven was one of second-string men with a single excep tion. Captain Mahan anii two other Harvard players went to New Haven to see the Yale team come to life, and the other Crimson regulars -idled on the sidelines. Brown presented a powerful offen sive in which the serpentine runs, of Pollard, a negro, and the lunging ad vances of Andrews were most impor tant. The Brown players made 14 first downs, but their attack was arrested time and again by fumbles in which Pollard also figured prominently. Array 24, Maine O." WEST POINT. N. Y., Nov. 13.-lThe Army won from Maine today. 24 to 0. in a hard-fought game. The viistors proved to be weaker than was expected, and the Army made many substitutions throughout the game. Ollphant; the former Purdue star, was again the brilliant performer for the cadets. He was removed during the third quarter to make room for a sub stitute, but at the time of his retire ment he had tallied aU the Army's points, 17, at that period of the play. Cornell 40, "Washington and I.ee 21. ITHACA. N. Y., Nov. 13. With the score 21 to 7 against them in the second period, Cornell came back at Washing ton and. Lee today, and when the final whistle blew led the plucky Virginians tations on the part of the fans and the players. ' The game ended Spokane 0, We natchee 0. This rule requiring the official to ask each captain if he is ready is often overlooked by inexperienced of ficials. Whistle Not Always Final. Johnny Bender, former coach at Washington State College, used to be quite a stickler for rules. Wo recall one game, Washington State College versus Multnomah Club in the Fall of 1913. that nearly ended in an argument over a technicality in volving a play that causes the offi cials more trouble than any ono other rule. We refer to the fumbling of the ball either before or after the whistle has been blown. Multnomah Club won the game 6-0 solely as a result of one of these hy brids. The Winged M had worked the ball- to the five-yard line and on the second down had the goal to make. Pete Rodes. former Annapolis captain, called for a straight tackle buck. Pull man held like a stone wall, and, when further progress stopped, the writer, who was refereeing, blew his whistle. Simultaneously, the ball. shot out of the heap of humanity across the goal line, where it was recovered by Grover Francis. Multnomah halfback, who is now doing valiant service as referee. Bender Protests Vigorously. As the ball was .in nobody's posses sion and was fumbled before the whis tle sounded, it was given to Multnomah as a touchdown amidst a terrible uproar- on behalf of Coach Bender. Ben der's argument, in brief, was that when the referee's whistle was blown the ball became dead, and he insisted that it be given to Multnomah on the one or two-yard line. Bender later admitted his error. Sometimes the play works "out the other way. In the Fall of 1912 In a game at Corvallls between tne Oregon Aggies and Whitman College, one of the Aggies fumbled, after the sound ing of the whistle, and a Whitman man recovered and ran 15 yards before being downed. Whitman complained when the ball was taken back and given to the Aggies at the spot of the fumble. Later in the game the other ox came close to being gored. , Whitman fum bled under similar circumstances and Everett May, or one of his teammates, ran the length of the field for an Ag gies' touchdown, which was not al lowed. Sometimes an official may hare a passing regret that be did not let the play continue a moment longer, but, in the long run. game in and game out, a prompt blowing of the whistle saves much trouble. Fumble Doesn't Make First Down. One play that the bleacherites and the players cannot get through their heads is why it is not first down when a team fumbles and then recovers the ball. It is only necessary to say that the continuity of downa " does not nAHVAnU Franklin Hia;h School Football Squad i op now lert to Right Pndsen Brown, Erlcson.

Time after time it "took four and five middies to stop a Colby runner and bring him to the ground. Oklahoma 23, Arkansas 0. FAYETTEVILLE. Ark., Nov. 13. The University of Oklahoma football team clinched the championship of the South western Athletic Association here today by defeating the University of Arkan sas, 23 to 0. Ceorgetovrn 28, North Carolina O WASHINGTON, Nov. 13. Georgetown overwhelmed the North Carolina Ag gies here today, 28 to 0, in a game change unless the ball has been fum bled, recovered by the opponents, and then refumbled and recovered by the original team. Were a team allowed to fumble and recover for a new start on downs there would ., an un.n.... string of subterfuges and inventions w ur: l tne rule. Safeties and touchbacks are oft times confusing uoth to the spectators and to the officials and players. We note that even a wise bird like Grover Francis and the coaches and players in a recent' interscholastlc game be tween Lincoln and Jefferson Highs were fooled on an alleged safety. In this instance Lincoln High punted from behind its own goal line and the ball caromed off the back of one of its players, oat on the field of plav. It was recovered by Jefferson on "the 17-yard line. Referee Francis- called it a safety under rule 16. section B, which says that a safety is made "from a kick which bounds back from an opponent or one of the kicker's own side, who. when struck, is behind his goal line." Safety Rule Bothersome. As a matter of fact to have this safe ty rule apply tne ball must be downed behind the goal line. In this case it bounded out into the field and play should have continued just as though it had not hit a Lincoln player. Out on the field of play if a kicked ball hits a player of the kicker's side who U in front 'of him the ball goes to the opponents on the spot. But it must be kept in mind that no player can be offside behind his own goal line. Coach Borleske.' of Whitman Col lege, placed an unusual interpretation on this offside immunity rule in the recent game between Multnomah Club and Whitman College, which was won by the club, 6-0. Whitman punted from behind its own goal line and McDonald ran out onu the field, recovered the ball and ra for a touchdown. Referee VarnelU who is one of th-s few officials In th Northwest really a student of grid iron technique, overruled the touch down and gave Multnomah the ball at the spot of recovery under the "off side player touching ball" rule. Borleake'a Contention Wrong. Coach Borleske ;ontende'd that" Mc Donald was behind his goal line when the ball was kicked and as "no player can be offside while behind his own goal line," he could not be penalized as "offside" when he recovered the ball. The joker lies in the wording of the phrase "while behind the-goa: line." McDonald was not offside while behind tho goal line, but he was offside the moment he stepped on the field of Play. . Later, when Whitman met the Ore gon Aggies at Corvallls, Borleske forced Dr. E.. J. Stewart, of the Aggies and the officials to. accept his inter' pretation before he would put his men on the leld. Subsequent letters to the writer from Walter Camp and Parke Davis, members of the rules committee, proved the fallacy of Coach Borleske's stant. Huta-era as. All Star T. NEW YORK, Nov. 13.

Aggie Invasion of Michigan Brings Recognition to West, and Proposal Are Beginning. Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club's football team Is gaining fame in the East and Middle West for some reason or other. Since thei 20-to-0 defeat of the Michigan Aggies by the Oregon Ag gies, Easterners have come to the con clusion that football is played in the West as It should be. and managers of teams throughout the Middle West want games. Dow V. Walker, superintendent of the MultDomah Amateur Athletic Club, received three letters yesterday from managers who are desirous of giving their players a vacation. Followers of football in. Portland may have the pleasure of seeing a bunch of famous gridiron stars in action on Multnomah Field December 11. Word was received from Dr. J. F. .Bonier, of 'the Washington State Col lege, that it would be impossible for the college eleven to consider a contest with the club this Winter, but he sug gested that an aggregation to be known as the "Lonestars" come to Portland for a match. Superintendent Walker is much in favor of the affair, as such players as Coach William ("Lonestar") Dietz, of the Washington State College; Tyrer, all-Northwest end last year; Keinholtz, Satterthwaite and the best players of the present Wash ington State College Would be seen in action on Multnomah Field. The date of December 11 was sug gested, and in all probability the Mult nomah Amateur Athletic Union will bring the "Lonestars" here. A letter was received from Oeorge F. Kennedy, who is managing a team of all-stars from St. Paul, Minn., in which he states that his team is going to make a tour of the West if arrangements can be made to play the prominent clubs and colleges ofuhis territory. Several all American athletes are in the lineup, ac cording to his letter. Another letter was opened by Super intendent Walker from an all-star team of Butte, Mont. Former players ot the various Northwest colleges of the Pa cific Northwest are listed as possibili ties for the Butte Miners. Nothing but the "Lonestar" game will be consid ered at present, although arrangements may be made whereby an Eastern or Middle Western aggregation will be on hand here either Christmas day or New Year's day to form opposition to the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Union. ESTACADA WANTS MORE MSU Petitions Circulated Asking That Feeding; Pond a Be Enlarged. ESTACADA, Or., Nov. 13. (Special.) Petitions are being circulated by members of the Estacada Rod and Gun Club and others, asking the State Fish and Game Commission to increase the capacity of the present Eagle Creek trout feeding ponds from 400,000 to 1,000,000 fish. Inasmuch as there are about 200 miles of trout waters adjacent to this district, with natural trout food plenti ful this increase is thought to be war ranted. Furthermore, it is pointed out, this district is centrally located as to population, with Portland anglers and tourists within easy distance, and prob ably 40 per cent of the fishing in the state is done within a radius of 30 miles of Estacada. 1 . MOUNT ANGEL BEATS ALBANY Spectacular Game Marked by Lornr Runs and Fine Passing. MOUNT ANGEL COLLEGE. Mount Angel, Or., Nov. 13. (Special.) In an interesting game the Mount Angel Col lege team defeated the Albany College at football 20 to 9 today. The game was replete with sensational plays, Sohler and Kasberger reeling- off long end runs and Fashek at fullback proving the stellar line plunger for the locals. For Albany College French played a beautiful game, his kick from place ment being perfect. Fullback Gldor also covered himself with glory, often going through the line for big' gains.

Columbia University meets Franklin High next Tuesday afternon on Mult nomah Field, and when the Washing ton High and Jefferson High battle on the same field the following day the present season will pass into history as one of the greatest In Portland. Few people realize that the Lincoln High School has one chance in 20 of winning the title of the league, but such is the case. The Jefferson-Washington game is a championship affair, but should it result in a tie score tho Railsplltters would be declared cham pions according to the standings of the teams at present. Columbia University shouldn't have much difficulty in scoring a victory over the Franklin High aggregation Tues day afternoon, but a good game can be expected, for Coach "Admiral'' Dewey has imbued his little proteges with a great amount of grit and pep. and as a team of tacklers none of the other aggregations has anything on tha Franklinites. Jeff Lineup Is Little Changed. Jefferson High will enter the big battle against Washington High with, practically the same lineup that won from Lincoln and then lost to Colum bia last week. ' From all accounts there will be no material changes in the lineup that Coach Virgil Karl sends out to represent the Washingtonlans. Interest in the Wednesday imbroglio is at the highest order, for the result of the fray will affect three institu tions Lincoln, Jefferson and Washing ton High Schools. Manager Archie Roth, of Washington, and Manager Milton Hermann, of Jefferson, have or dered more than 2000 tickets to start out with tomorrow morning, and by the time Assistant Superintendent W. R. Davis, of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club, sends his men out to open the doors to the grandstand each manager expects to have disposed ot every cardboard on hand and maybe morev The game will have to be started promptly at 3 o'clock in order to be completed before dark. The last four games have had to be completed in such darkness that It was impossible to see the ball from tho grandstand: in fact, ail during the last quarter of the Lincoln-Portland Academy match last Friday none of the spectators could tell one player from the other. The electric lights in the grandstand had to be turned on at the beginning of the second half. Season Brings Surprise. . The result of the present season has been somewhat of a surprise. Early in the year the Washington High was figured on as having a cinch to cop the pennant, but right In the middle of the season the Lincoln High repre sentatives downed the East Siders 6 to 3 in the annual game. The largest crowd in the history of interscholastio football in Portland on Multnomah Field was, present, a total of 3265 wit nessing the match. Lincoln High met its Waterloo In the person of the Jefferson High, and the score was 3 to 0. The North Bast 8idera went along all right without being scarred up until last Tuesday, when Columbia University came to life and administered a 14-to-6 defeat to the Jeffersonians. This victory put three high schools in a tie for first place in the league. One of the features of the coming Jefferson-Washington game will be the final appearance of one of the great est linemen that this league has ever had. He is Ozbun Walker, of tho Washington High, and this is his third year with the team, but next year ho will be attending one of the Oregon colleges, according to his present plans. He is the only member of the Wash ington High eleven who is not eligible for another season, but reports have it that the Bast Siders will have to miss nine of the present squad through graduation. Ozbun plays tackle for Coach Earl, and, although he tips the beam at close to 200 pounds, he is fast for his size and is willing to learn. He is a brother of Dow V. Walker, superintendent of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club, who made such a name for himself while with the Oregon Agricultural Col lege in 1903-04-05-06. Dow weighed better than 212 in his prime, and he is credited with running 105 yards for a touchdown after a fum ble against his old rival the Univer sity of Oregon. Some of the fastest sprinters in the Northwest were on the State University team at that time, but none of them had a look-in when Dow grabbed the ball and started on his fa mous run. In speaking of that long run. recently, Dow dropped the re mark that the last 15 yards seemed like a mile to him. The officials for the coming games have not been selected as yet.
