lime without embarrassment to the de

his intention to resign. Hi record with
the Oregon "Aggies" Impressed the ath
letic board. He is considered an
authority on football, basketball, base
ball and track work. "He was with

rated a star performer on the gridiron
with the team of Steubenville, O.. and
Western reserve University of Cleveland.

"Yes, I have accepted the position

my labors with them In the Fall, leav
ing here after the baseball season is
over and in time for the opening of
the football season In the corn-huak-Ing
country," said Coach E. J. Stewart,
of Oregon Agricultural College, at the
Multnomah Athletic Club last night,
where he "took in" the game between
the University of California and the
Multnomah Club basketball teams.
Coach Stewart's boys play the Califor

"My telegram came yesterday rrora

to become head of athletics at Nebraska

the offer asked if I would consider a
proposition to take up this work in
the Eastern state. I replied that I
would, and the next thing I heard was
the telegram which came to me yester
day from the chancellor."
Though he waa reluctant to ssy any
thing relative to the salary attached

vallis Is to the effect that Mr. Stewart
is leaving a $2600 position in this state
to accept a $4000 position in Nebraska.

tke Scottish Game.
Soccer football squads of the various
schools in the Portland Interscholastlc
League are busily engaged in practice,
although the snow of the past week
made footing; rather difficult. The first
game of the 1916 season is slated for
Friday afternoon, when the champion
ship Columbia University aggregation
of last year tackles the Franklin High
eleven.
Considerable Interest has been cre
ated in the sport of late and all the
institutions are adopting It as a "mon
ogram" sport. Several of the contin
gents are being coached by prominent
players of some of the senior squads
in Portland.
Washington High School has obtained
the services of R. M. D. Rankin, better
known as "Bob." Rankin learned the
rudiments of the great Scottish national
game in his home town of Milngavie,

Salt Lake's spurt up towards the top
and Oakland's slide down towards the
sub-cellar In the closing weeks of the
1915 Coast League race boosted both
Joe Gedeon and Buddy Ryan,' of Salt
Lake, up above Jack Ness, of Oakland,
in the race for first honors In runs
driven across the plate by timely hits
and sacrifices. Up to the last Jew
weeks of the season Ness looked like a
sure thing for the honors, but after hia
world record run of consecutive gamea
of hitting he dropped off and Gedeon
started to spurt.
Gedeon finished the season with a
total of 134 runs driven across the
plate and bis teammate Ryan was a
good second with 126 runs driven in.
Ness, of Oakland, with 124 runs driven
in was third, and Ping Bodie, of San
Francisco, was fourth with 113 runs
driven in.
These four were the only players to
pass the century mark. Gedeon's total
of 134 runs driven in is a new league
record, topping the 1914 record of Kube
Ellis, of Los Angeles, who In that year
drove in 120 runs. In 1915 Ellis fell
far behind his 1914 record, driving in
only 66 runs.
Following are the players on each
club who drove In more than 20 runs
for the season of 1915: '

stealing club in the league, not only in
total steals but in the percentage of
successful steals. -San Prancisco base'
runners stole 355 bases for the season

catchers 197 times, a percentage of
successful steals of .629. Salt Lake

Johnston, of Oakland, not only led the
league in 1915 for total stolen bases,
but on the percentage basis of suc
cessful steals Johnston was also the
real leader, although Risberg, of Ver
non, topped him nominally in the
smaller number of games in which he
played. Risberg stole 30 bases and was
thrown out by opposing catchers only
nine times, a percentage of successful
steals of .769. Johnston's record of 85
stolen bases was offset by only 26
times thrown out. a .766 percentage.
Maggert, of Los Angeles, stole 56 batses
and was thrown out 22 times, a .718
percentage. Shinn, of Salt Lake, was
the only other player rated with better
than a .700 percentage, having stolen
43 bases and been thrown out 17
times, a .717 percentage. McMullen, of
Los Angeles, was thrown out trying to
steal 38 times, this being more times
than any other player in the league
was thrown out. Middleton, of Oak
land, thrown out 33 times and Purtell,
of Vernon, thrown out 32 times, were
the only other players in the league
who were turned back more than 30
times in attempts to steal bases Fol
lowing is the percentage rating of suc
cessful steals of all players who
fishished the league season with a
record of 25 or more stolen bases:
