Varsity Fans Looking Forward to Game With Aggies and Bezdek -Quoted as Sajlnjr That Enemy Will Fight Hard. ' 4Kt'f . I , , ' I v - " , - OREGON AGRICULTURAL. COLr LEGK, Corvallis. Nov. 11. (Special.) With all but two games of an ex ceptionally heavy football schedule played, the Oregon Aggie eleven will rest for a week before the climax of the season is reached in the annual classic with the University of Oregon on November 25. In the meantime Coach Pipal will make the best possible use of the com ing two weeks to rid the players of the knocks and bruises received in the bat tle against DoDie's powerful aggre gation yesterday and in perfecting the teamwork of the inexperienced men on whom the Aggie supporters are pinning their faith. Every mishap. Injury or change for the better during the patst few weeks has been discussed by the fans as to its effect upon the outcome of the frame against'the Bezdek machine, and the practices to come will be critically observed. Freshmen Barred First Time. This is the finSt time that freshmen have ever been barred from a football contest between the two institutions, and minus the first-year men tne Ag gies come out second best on the pe rusal of the dope sheet. The one argument that is being brought forward in favor of Pipal's team i the fact that it seems to be the under dog and the history of the games indicates that In the last tnree years the under dog has managed to rise to unexpected heights and score a real or virtual win. The fact that Parsons, sensational University of Oregon halfback-, hae been declared ineligible by the Pacific Coast conference advisory committee, con sisting of Dean Priest, of the Univer sity of Washington, and Dr. A, D. Browne, of the Oregon Agricultural College, and will not participate against the Aggies, has not caused the orange and black stock to rise to any great extent. Lnderatudy Will Be Used. The Corvallis fans figure that Bezdek will have time to work an understudy Into the place, and, while he may not be the equal of the shifty Parsons, the strength of the team as a whole will not be materially weakened. Preparations already are being made on the Aggie campus to handle a large crowd on November 25. New bleachers are being constructed along the east side of the gridiron and a new board fence ha been built along the south Fide of the entire athletic field. Dr. A. D. Browne, head of the department of athletics, is working out a plan where by visitors will be handled quickly and efficiently In being seated. The first annual "homecoming" will be held on the day of the game and the double attraction is expected to draw a record-breaking crowd. A pro gramme of sports has been arranged In addition and the evening will be given over to dancing. Baseball. Boxing, Tennis Personal Touches In Sports. BILL, LAUDER, former Canadian lightweight champion. Is numbered among the wounded in the casualty list Issued a week ago by the Depart ment of Militia, Ottawa. The extent of his wounds are not known. Billy was a former resident of Winnipeg, but did most of his fighting in and around Cal gary. ' - Pete Muldoon. manager of the Seat tle hockey team, received word the other day from Harry Holmes to the effect that the veteran was preparing to don the pads for the Mets again in the coming Coast League campaign. Holmes' work last season was sensa tional at times, but he had nothing on Hugh Lehman, the unassuming gentle man from Pembroke, Ont.. who guards the Vancouver citadel, or of Tommy Murray, the Portland goalkeeper.

The main difference between a foot ball game and a prizefight is that the amateurs play more roughly than the professionals fight. Six brothers play on the Panhan dles, a Columbus, O., independent foot ball team. They are the Ne? sr broth ers. They play the following positions: Ted, captain, coach and halfback: John, quarter: Phil, tackle: Alfred, guard; Frank, fullback, and Fred, end.

Tuesday afternoon the Washingtoa High School 11 will be called on to battle the Jefferson High School squad ou Multnomah Field for what niig.it be termed the main event of the season. Each aggregation has been going great since the season began, wiih the odds in favor of the Wash iiigtonlans. Coach Earl has primed his athletes to their highest power, apparently. nZ the Jefferson boys are Just as conuUunt of winning Tuesday as they were against Columbia University two weeks ago. This Is the first time in the his tory of the school that the Jefterson ians have made such a stubborn battle for premier honors and Coach Ho, ntr Jamison is not going to let It go by without an awful fight. The largest crowd of the season is bfin? looked for by both sides and it would not surprise many to see the league record of more than 3500 go hy the boards.

It will be played in the new Franklin Bowl. In fact, it will be the official christening of the new ath letic field at the Quaker Institution Complete negotiations have not been completed, but at any rate Coach Dewey fully expects to land an up state aggregation for the occasion. After this week's play only three games remain on the 1916 schedule. On November 22 Lincoln High meets Jefferson, Washington tangles with Columbia two days later and the wind up is billed for November 28 between Franklin and Commerce.

Mar tin Pratt will umpire and J. M. Coshow win be linesman for this week s games. All are Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club representatives.

All games were hard-fought affairs and brought forth some good football at times. Bowling; Notes GUERNSEY, of the Portland Alleys' bowling team, rolled some nice Kamc. on the Oregon alleys last Thurs day nlglit. His highest run was for 251, while his average for three con tests was better than 214. The Telegram team and the Multno mah Camp quintet postponed their games of last week to this week be cause of the election excitement.

Despite the over whelming victory of the Oregon fresh men over the Chemawa Indians two weeks ago. Coach Dean Walker's neo phytes will face an altogether different class of football when they meet Ever ett May's proteges from Oregon Agri cultural College In Eugene Saturday The next Oregon Agricultural College rookies have a decided advantage over the Oregon men In that seven of their men have been playing on the varsity. With such experience under the super vision of Coach Pipal several of these men have proved themselves equal to any of the varsity men. To turn these huskies against the Oreaon freshmen who have played only one game and suffer from a Jack of suthclent coach ing, the dope easily falls in favor ot the Aggie freshmen. Coach Walker feels that his men win put up a good fight, but they lack the experience, and a defeat Is probable. Bill Steers, Ed Strowbridge. "Rub Mast, and Bill Reinhart will be Walk er's yardage makers. All are working Jn fine form. Steers has a handy toe and promises to make good use of t. Stan Anderson ana 1 i-. v uson are showing up well on the end positions with Spike Leslie the demon of the line. With two weeks yet before the var sity clashes with the O. A. C. contingents Bezdek will probably -use nts men against the fresh to whip the young hopefuls Into shape. With the coming of November 25. Oregon fans will again see the O. A. C. battle on the Corvallis gridiron for the state championship. Dope is a hard calendar to arrange between these two teams. O. A. C. will lose her strongest men. according to the Coast Conference rules barring freshmen, and with these men out the fans look for Pipal's men to suffer a defeat. On the other hand Bezdek doesn't feel too safe reKard Ing the game. "The O. A. C. coachins staff have not been sleeping." said Bezdek. "they know what we have now and are laying a trap for us." The varsity will have a few days to recuperate after the hard game today and then conies the hard grind of two weeks without any dessert. PIERGEY IS NOT BEATEN OAKLAND OXCE ALMOST SPOILS It CCO HO OK SALT LAKH FITCHLK. Steen, of San Francisco, With Six Wlna aad No Defeat. Ia Second Cran- dall Often Loaea to Vernon. W'hen Oakland chased Piercey, of Salt Lake, off the mound with the score tied the day before the 1916 Coast League season closed, they lost their last chance to dethrone him from the position of having the best clean pitching slate of any pitcher against any one club. For that was the near est that Oakland came to bee ting Pier cey during the year. Piercey won seven games and lost none against Oakland, the best pitching -"cord ol any pitcher for the year against any club. Steen. of San Francisco, with six wins and no defeats against Ver non, held the next best record. Crandall. after joining Los Angeles, won four games and lost none against Oakland: Zabel, of Los Angeles, won four and lost none against Portland, these two pitchers being the only other besides Piercey and Steen to finish the season with clean slates of four or more victories and no defeats against any particular club. Portland beat liyan. of Los Angeles, on October 20 ind spoiled his chance for equaling Piercey's record, leaving him witn seven victories and one de feat against Portland. A defeat bj Vernon on May 9 also prevented Ityan from sharing honors with Piercey, for that defeat was the only time that Ver non beat Ryan during the season, Kyan finishing winner seven times against Vernon. On the defeat side of the slate Ver non led around the goat of one Otis Crandall more often than did any other club, for Vernon beat Crandall seven times during the year. ive times while he was with Oakland and twice aftei he Joined Los Angeles. Never once did Crandall register a win over "er non. Portland defeated Horstman. of Los Angeles, six times and never lost to him. San Francisco defeated liager man. of Portland, five rtues without a defeat by him. and Kelly, of Portland lost five games to Vernon without be ing able to tame the Tigers.
