Just before leaving for Pasadena yesterday the University of Pennsyl vania football squad received a visit from a young man who represented himself as Loomis. end on the Wash ington State College team, who put In two hours explaining Oregon's system of attack and defense to the Quakers, and offering suggestions as to what tactics Coach Folwell's men should adopt to defeat Oregon on New Year's day. The Pennsylvania players and coaches listened attentively to Loomis and declared they had profited ma terially by his advice. In a signed article in the Philadel phia Press Folwell said: "He (Loomis) knows every man on the team Pennsylvania will meet and all their plays, and he spent two hours going over in detail all the Information we had compiled about our opponents. He added to this very materially, and we. feel that he has been of the utmost assistance to us." Eastern college men- who have heard of the Loomis Incident are loud In their disapproval of his disloyalty to Pacific Coast football by putting the Penn sylvanians wise as to Oregon's play. Alumni of Eastern colleges have been supporting Pennsylvania in the coming gams as a matter of sectional pride, but they believe Oregon is entitled to the loyal support of all Pacific Coast institutions and players. Since the Loomis Incident many Easterners have denounced the Pennsylvanlans for hav ing given the Washington player an audience. Ray Loomis. the Washington State College athlete who is reported to have "riven help to Coach Folwell's Univer eity of Pennsylvania aggregation at Pennsylvania, is in the East attending the annual gathering of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity. He was se lected All-Northwest end last year by many of the critics and he still has an other year of football in the Pacific Coast Intercollegiate conference. A long distance telephone call from Pullman. Wash., to The Oregonian late last night conveyed the news that Loomis had left for Pittsburg for the meeting. There is no doubt but that Loomis did not figure that his few words to the Quakers would ever blow as far West as Portland, or he never would have turned "traitor" aa he is eaid to have done. N. VARSITY ENTRAINS TOMORROW Eugene Optimistic, but Team Is Not Mentally Prepared. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, ec 23. (Special.) Monday night at 7:50 o'clock 23 husky University of COregon football warriors, with Coach fllugo Bezdek. Trainer Bill Hayward. IGraduate-Manager A. R. Tiffany and JStudent Manager Roland W. Geary, f-vith a number of student rooters led by Nicholas Jaureguy, student-body presl- ylent, entrain on the Shasta Limited)forj frhe sunny southland, where, on New j Vear's day on the Pasadena gridiron ! ithe University of Pennsylvania football i jfteam will be met. I The game will be the great intersec Monal contest of the age and will be .jreisoiis aiiempt as a yuuiniui lnstltu- lon in the major sport of football to .anquish the mighty warriors from the uasu Up to tonight the Varsity eleven was led through the most strenuous practice of the year. Chalk talks by morning, training table at meal times and scrim mage for afternoons composed the daily diet. Boys Get to See "Santy." On Sunday Coach Bezdek allowed the boys to depart homeward to hang up their Christmas stockings over the family fireplace. But the orders were strict that every man should be on hand early Monday night with his bag and baggage ready to board the train ! ior tne- southland. The trip wiL be made straight through and four days given over to acclimation and practice on the Southern California gridiron. But the all-prevailing question 13, what is the Oregon machine going to show against the Eastern men against the machine that ended the Eastern season with such a rush? On the Uni versity of Oregon campus there is un warranted optimism. The game la taken too lightly. Too much confi-i dence is placed in the physical condition I of the men and their wonderful speed. I bince the end of the regular football season with the Multnomah Clubmen of Portland on the Portland field Thanksgiving day there was a big re laxation of the Oregon men. They have not recovered rrom this let-up and the esuits win De seen when they go on he field to face the Pennsy crew. This is mo juusiiieni renaerea on tne actions of the men individually and collectively. wey nave not naa tne snap to their acuce. aa u tormer days. They are 2 f not taking the game seriously -enough. -..c, tor too much of a good time and not enough for a battle. Men "Not Psychologically- Ready." In other words, they are not psycho logically prepared. They are not fight ing nervous." They are not keyed up to the pitch they were, for instance, when Coach Gilmore Dobie brought his aauingion crew to the campus No vember 4. Nor are they "on their toes" as they were when they journeyed to Portland November 11 and met the vet eran team of Coach "Lonestar" Dietz on the Portland gridiron. Coach Bezdek knows this and all the followers of the. major sport know it. It Is a candid confession. But the men are not to blame. They are as fit physi cally as they ever were for any con test. But they do not seem to realize just what a strong aggregation Coach Folwell, of Pennsylvania, has back there in the East. But Coach Bezdek Is going to get his men Into the mental state necessary for that game New Year's day. He is getting his men south so they will get an idea of what they are going to buck up against. This will work wonders with the men. It will be a safe wager mat ere a mgnt has passed after the first practice on the Southern California gridiron the Oregon machine will have undergone a mental rejuvenation. If that is accomplished fully the Penn sylvania machine will go up against the hardest fighting bunch thejs have ever tackled. Why Campus Shows Optimism. That is why the students of the cam pus are so optimistic. They have a hunch the Oregon team is in the fight ing shape it was when it met Wash. ington and Washington State. ine university and the state ra-n well be proud of those men who are going to meet the Pennsylvania team. They are as clean a bunch of 23 can be found. Thev have been trained by a trainer who knows the training game from A to Z. Ti,at man rih Hayward and the great track coach wno has brought so many track trophies to the - University, and he it was who trained the Westenn Olympic athlete who represented the West at the Stork- holm games in 1912. And it is a team coached bv ronn who received his training under Coach Stagg, a peer in the major sport of football. Since coming to Oregon "Bez" has changed his style -of game alto gether. But he has gained results. He predicts defeat in the Pasadena game and he is sincere in it. But the chances are he is still thinking of victory while praying for a low score. The 23 men who are maklnsr th trfr, are: Captain John Beckett, Kenneth Bartlett, Clifford Mitchell. Lloyd Te- gart, Stirling Spellman, William Sny der, Basil Williams, Jacob Risley, Hol- lis Huntington. Charles Hiintlnpe Orville Monteith, John Parsons, Roy Brown, Peter Jensen, Edwin Strow bridge, Carl Nelson, Neil Morfitt, Ward McKinney. William Tuerck, Ray Couch. uien jjuaiey and George Cook.

Coach Everett May has called a halt to basket ball practice at the Oregon Agricult ural College, and every man has been given instructions to be back ready to to start work again on January 1. Since the alumni game a week sen. weaknesses have been dis jvered which will need rapid repairing if the Aggies expect to garner in their first confer ence game on January 12. The worst trouble seems to be in the defense, and Coach May has been drilling the men hard during the past week in an attempt to develop this weak point. jsiagg seems to De one of the chief offenders in the pursuit of defensive tactics, but his almost phenomenal bas ket shooting ability this season has more than offset the other disadvant age. Captain Mix has been going good both on the defense and In dropping the ball through the hoop. Friedman, the diminutive, forward, is putting up a better defensive than he has ever shown before. Of the non-letter men. Blssett and Lowe, of football fame, have been show ing up to good advantage.

Referee Billington after the game said it was the ' best exhibition of soccer he had seen in many a day, and that it was the best game to referee in which he had ever officiated. No wrangling occurred during the match and everything was run off In shin- shape. The work of Johnny Murphy, of the clubmen, was the best seen on the field, while Eddie Sammons, D. Wright, Ralph Underwood, Paget. Markie and Captain Morris gained honorable men tion. Captain Campbell. Jay Fox and Jimmy Sheehy featured for the col legians. The Eugene boys were with out the services of their star center forward Bill Tuerck and their play showed that they were handicapped considerably. Thirty - five - minute halves were played and although many desperate rallies were staged by both aggrega tions neither one could .put across a point in the opening period.

ALBANY PRAISES COACH IA- HCTJSOST GETS CREDIT FOR SUCCESS IX FOOTBALL State nigh School Championship Is Won by Team Which Began Sea aon With Small Hope. ALBANY. Or. Dec. 23. (Special.) The Albany High School football team, which won the state championship this year is now laying Its plans for next season, when but one regular will be missing. Wh, school opened this Fall the boys entertained anything but hopes of a successful season. Only a few veterans were on Land, and a new coach had been assigned to the team. This man was Ray Hudson, who was destined to be the topic of many a football fan's conversation before the 1S16 gridiron season ln the Willam ette Valley closed. Coming from the Oregon Agricultural College, where he had never given foot ball enough time to do more than cap tain his class team and pilot It through to the campus championship, Hudson's knowledge of the game was an un known quantity as far as the Albany aspirants were concerned, and a few lamented the fact that some brilliant college star had not been assigned to nurse tceir gridiron ambitions into a reality. When the team finally began to take shape and a few plays made their appearance, enthusiasm knew no bounds, and instead of battling against lack of interest the coach was soon working against over-confidence. As game after game was- won, stock In the Albany team ascei ded notch by notch, but each time the wily mentor managed to keep the over confidence bugaboo away. With a game a few days off. some strong cog of the machine would suddenly be held up with grades or sickness or some other reason, and three times during the season the boys went into the dressing-room to prepare for contests grimly determined to win without the aid of the absent one, only to find him preparing to participate ln the fray.

FRESHMEN" FIVE ARE VICTORS Oregon Sophomores Defeated by 2 1- to-1 7 Score. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Euzene. Dec. 23. (Special.) Class spirit cul minated the fore part of the week. when the freshman class basketball team emerged victorious over the other class teams. The first contests between the seniors and the sophomores result ed in favor of the second-year men, 15 7; that between the freshmen and juniors resulted for the freshmen, 9-7. The second series, the seniors and freshmen, the latter won, 20-14, and the sophomores won from the Juniors, 22-5. This put the nnal games on the third night between the undefeated fresh men and sophomores, and the defeated seniors and Juniors. The last games were by far the most exciting of the schedule, in that the seniors were vic torious over the Juniors, 18-4. and the freshmen over the sophomores, 21-17. Bezdek requested the varsity aspir ants to return January's to begin prac tice under some assistant, probably Don Rader, of the Vernon baseball club. Rader was a varsity man in 1912, and with his help the Oregon men have hopes of developing a fast quintet. Considerable competition for the various positions seems evident. Dick Nelson and Loren Roberts showing the best form for center. Fred Cate, Jay tot, Lynn aiccready and itoy Farley are the main contenders for the for ward positions. For guards there will be Sims.
