OREGON TRIUMPHS
OVER WOlTOn

SUNDODGERS ARE GAME
Third Consecutive Victory Over Se
attle Squad Won by Ore
gonlan Eleven.
CContlTitied TTnm Flrwt tage.
their eleven fought to the bitter end.
"With two touchdowns and a. filed goal
against them, they wouldn't give up.
It was a saddened and dispirited
"Washington eleven that left the field
when the game ended, but not a
whipped one. Their backs had hit
the Oregon line with everything they
had. But they simply couldn't get
through. A few yards here and
there, but all rallies were quickly
stopped by the vigilant Oregonians.
Not once did they threaten the Ore
gon goal. The holes were not there.
On defense, too, Washington fought
sternly. The work of Captain Faulk
at left end was brilliant. He broke
up many plays.
Their loss today was Washington's
fourth consecutive defeat this sea
Bon. And Oregon's victory was the
third' In unbroken row over Washing
ton In the past three years.
Toward the end of the game, with
Oregon far ahead, Washington opened
tip a desperate forward passing game.
The soggy ball was difficult to con
. trol. and all but one attempt either
fell to the ground incompleted, or was
Intercepted by an Oregon player.
Pass Results In Touchdown.
One such intercepted forward pass
by Chapman, at left half for Oregon,
resulted directly in the second Oregon
touchdown. Oregon had kicked oft
following Steers' dropkick in the
third quarter. Washington had the
ball on Its 32-yard line when Wilson,
on the second play, threw the piKskln
up th field. It fell right into "Chap
man's arms. He ran from the Wash
ington 40-yard line to the 4-yard line
Just as the quarter ended, and on the
first play In the fourth quarter Steers
went over for his second touchdown.
Only two Washington- 'forward
passes were resultful in the whole
gameout of 15 tries. One netted only
four yards. The other was a SO-yard
pass.
Oregon tried six forward passes,
out of which two were good, one was
Intercepted and three were incom
plete.;; Washington made its second best
gain ,",of the day on this Intercepted
pass -thrown by Steers in the third
quarter. Dalley grabbed the ball
fromlhe air and returned it 35 yards
before being downed. But even with
this run, the ball still was in Wash
ington territory, as was the case
through most of the entire game.
BiU; Steers was the pivot man on
all six of Oregon's attempts. One of
his passes to Morfit in the first
quarter netted 35 yards. Another soon
after to Howard gave Oregon 27 yards
to Washington's three-yard line.
" Steers hit the line for no gain, and
a fumble on the next play gave Wash
ington the ball. It was kicked tem
porarily out of danger.
In addition to the many other feats
of Bill Steers in this game, add that
of pulling off successfully the cele
brated "dead man" trick for a 30-yard
gain.-This, too was in the first quar
ter. Aftei large Bill had been thrown
. back for a seven-yard pass when
Kauilt nailed him as he was preparing
to throw for a forward pass. King
busted through for six yards. As he
lay on the groftnd he passed the ball
to Steers, who ran- 30 yards more.
Dalley Grabs Forward Pass.
In -this same quarter Oregon lost
a chance to score by Dailey's agility
for Washington in grabbing one of
Steers' forward passes on his own
five-yard line. He wa.s downed for
no gain, but it enabled Washington
to punt upfield.
The- wherefore of Steers' 75-yard
line run to a touchdown in the second
quarter was as follows:
Directly following Steers' first at
tempt at a field goal had failed,
Washington put the ball in scrimmage-
from her 20-yard line. Dalley
etabbed the middle of the Oregon line
for ten yards. Eckmann found right
tackle for four yards, but Dalley
could, get only a yard through center
Wilson stepped back and punted 85
yardsl to Steers on Oregon's 25-yard
line. -
The. Oregon star made a beautiful
catch.. He dodged to the left and
eluded one Washington end who was
diving at him. A few quick steps for
ward; then another Washington man
-was eluded by a quick turn. His in
terference was bumping off Wash
ington players right and left by this
lime, and Steers, veering toward the
side 'jlines to his left, ran through
most of the Washington team, and
then lor the final 30 yards through a
clearfield to a touchdown.
Oregon's Superiority la Shown.
Oregon's superiority over Wash
ington is shown graphically by the
statistics of the game. Oregon gained
177 yards from scrimmage, not in-
r-- cludlne- forward nasses or runnins
I back of punts, to Washington's 44.
downs to three for Washington.
BiH Steers, punting for Oregon
nntil the middle of the final quarter,
and Spike Leslie, who succeeded him
in punting, got. oft nine kicks for an
average of 40 yards to 10 by Wilson
of Washington for 36 yards.
Oregon's over-eagernes cost her
more penalties than Washington. She
-was set back 70 yards in penalties to
15 for Washington.
Notlme was taken out in the first
half for any player on either team.
In the second half Howard and Brick
Leslie- had time out for minor in
juries, and later left the game.
Dailey for Washington had to be
helped - off the field, but ' later re
turned. Iailey played brilliant football for
Washington, as did Captain Faulk
and Eckmann. For Oregon, besides
the ever-present and accounted-f or
' Bill Steers, Mart Howard at left end.
Morfit at right end and Spike Leslie
at tackle were shining stars. Rein
hart,; replacing Steers at quarter,
pepped up the team with his snappy
playing and himself made some good
yardage gains. In fact, he carried
the .' ball ten times in succession,
nearly every time for yardage.
The Oregon turf field was- some
what soggy from rain, but this didn't
seem to affect the playing greatly,
thoutrh. of course, it slowed up the
S backtield somewhat.
The attendance was about 70.
"i&m pleased. The boys played
good' football. They did something
that- they haven't done before this
year.V'. They ran a wonderful interfer
ence," said . Coach Shy Huntington, of
Oregon.
Trainer Hayward said: "The Oregon
men, are all in fine condition. There
are no injuries except for a few line
bruises." .
Stub Allison, coach of -the Washing
ton eleven, declined to comment on
the game.

GORDON ROUSES PROTEST
CERTIFICATE OP ELECTION
OPPOSED BY POUHiAXDEIi.
Defeated Candida fo- Mayor and
Winner of Legislative Seat Held
to Tave '"-'ated Statutes.
SALEM, Or., Nov. 13. (Special.)
Paul C. Dormitzer, an attorney with
offices in Portland, has filed with
the secretary of state - a protest
against the issuance of a certificate
of election to Herbert Gordon who
at the recent geiftral election was
successful in his contest for a seat
in the lower house of the legislature
from Multnomah county. Mr. Gordon
also was a, candidate for mayor of
Portland In opposition to George L.
Baker, but was defeated in this race
by a decisive majority.
Mr. Dormitzer bases his protest on
that section of the Oregon statutes
whjch provides that "no person who
is not an elector shall be qualified
to Join in nominating any candidate.
No elector shall be qualified to Join
in a certificate of nomination made
by individual electors in nominating
more than one person for. each office
to" be filled. No person shall be
qualified to be a candidate for more
than one office to be filled at the
same election."
"The enclosed ballot,", said Mr.
Dormitzer's letter to the secretary of
state, "shows that Herbert Gordon
was a candidate for 'more than one
office to be filled at the same elec
tion, to-wlt: No. 65 for representa
tive and No. 97 for mayor. This was
in direct conflict with the Oregon
statutes."
Sam A. Koser, secretary of state,
indicated today that he would refer
Mr. Dormitzer'e letter to the attorney
general for a legal opinion. In a
previous opinion along this line the
attorney general held that Mr. Gor
don had 'a legal right to enter the
contest for the two pfflces, but that
under the law he could qualify for
only one of them. This would not
have interf erred with Mr. Gordon's
plan should he have been successful
in the campaign, for mayor, however,
for the reason that the next biennial
session of the legislature would have
adjourned before July 1, when he
would have succeeded Mayor Baker.
CITY DENIED FLYING FIELD
Roseburg, Or., to Vote on Pur
chase In 1922.
ROSEBURG, Or., Nov. 13. Rose
burg's chances for an aviation field
took flight today when Recorder
Whipple handed down a decision up
holding a petition filed several days
ago asking that v the matter of the
city purchasing an aviation field be
referred to a vote of the people at
the 1922 election.
Councilman Creeson was respon
sible for filing the petition. He al
leged that the time is not. opportune
for expending sufficient money to
purchase a field. At a special elec
tion held here early in the summer
the voters approved a measure call
ing for issuance of bonds in the sum
of J7000 for the purchase of a field
south of the city. The matter will
now be delayed for another year.
Special Bond Election Planned.
SALEM, Or., Nov. 13. (Special.)
A movement has been launched here
to have the city council call a spe
cial election in fhe near future to
vote on the question of authorizing
Donas in trie sum of SZ5.000 with
which to help defray the expenses of
tha city government during the t.ext
iz months. This money is declared
to be absolutely necessary in- case the
police and fire departments are to be
maintained at their present hlerh
standard of efficiency. The question
was suDmitted to the voters at the
general election, held on November
2, but was. rejected by a decisive ma
jority.

Xo Organization Fight In Sicht In
Either Senate) or House; County
' Call Soon Likely.
This is expected to be a somewhat
busy week in political circles. Most
of the members of the legislature will
be in Portland, partly to attend the
livestock show, but mainly to meet
otJr,er members and talks things over.
There is no organization fight in
sight. Representative Bean is the
acknowledged winner of the speaker
ship without opposition. Royjtltner
is accredited with 18 certain votes for
president of the senate, with only 16
necessary to elect. B. L. Eddy, who
has been a contender for president
of the senate, is expected to come to
Portland this week to make a per
sonal survey of the senatorial end of
the legislature. Senator Ritner was
due in Portland last week, but sent
word that he. would wait for the
stockshow meeting.
It is believed that practically B0
per cent or more of the members of
the legislature will be ""in Portland
within the next few days. With Mr.
Bean conceded to be the speaker,
there is not likely to be muchr-ex-citement
about organization of the
house.
Drsger and Singer. Stay.
With Fred Drager as chief clerk
and Joseph Singer as serjeant-at-arms,
the organization will be prac
tically effected. Mr.' Drager hal
been chief clerk of the. house for so
many years that no one remembers
exactly, and Mr. Singer has been Ber-reant-at-arms
for eight sessions, cov
ering 11 years. In the senate John
Hunt of Woodburn will be the chief
clerk, as he has no opposition and
has inherited the support of John
W. Cochran, veteran chief clerk, who
is now deputy secretary of state:
Someone will be issuing a call soon
for the Multnomah county legisla
tive delegation to get together for
organization purposes. Only modesty
and diffidence is preventing several
members from issuing the call. The
need for a meeting is recognized, but
even the veteran members feel timid
about issuing a call tm their own re
sponsibility, and the new members
are shy about such things.
A considerable amount of local leg
islation Is being framed up to submit
to the delegation for approval or
rejection, and in a series of meetings
held prior to the session it will be
possible for the delegation to weed
out, possibly, some of the tentative
measures, and to outline a policy on
others which affect the delegation as
a whole.
One of the matters which probably
will give concern to the Multnomah
delegation in the 1921 session will be
a reapportionment of representatives
and state senators, based on the new
census returns. There are a nurrgber
of counties which have shown sub
stantial gains and which will not
hesitate to ask for more representa
tives at Salem, while other counties
are acknowledged as top-heavy with
representation. The main ambition
in such cases is for the other coun
ties to retain all they have in sight
and take toll from Multnomah. If they
can.
THANKSGIVING EDICT OUT
OLCOTT NAMES XOYEMBER 25
AS DAY OP GRATITUDE.
Governor Proclaims Legal Holiday
and Urges People to Observe .
Feast With Prayer:
SALEM, Or., -Nov. IS. (Special.)
Governor Olcott, in a proclamation is
sued here today, declared Thursday,
November 25, as Thanksgiving day
and urged the people of Oregon to
halt their commercial and industrial
activities on that occasion that they
might appropriately observe the na
tional holiday.
"On November 21, 300 years' ago,"
said the governor's proclamation, "the
little ship Mayflower, carrying Us 102
passengers of men and women, cast
anchor in American waters. This ves
sel brought with It the beginnings of
the nation which we now know as the
United States of America, and out of
the devotion of those, men and women
to the principles of civil and religious
liberty came our glorious democracy
of today. The first act oft yiose pil
grim fathers as they etepped upon the
soil of America was to throw them
selves upon their knees and give
thanks to Almighty God that they
had found a harbor where they might
worship him according to. the dictates
of their own consciences. That was
the first Thanksgiving day.
