OREGON' AGRICULTURAL, COL LEGE, Corvallis, Oct. 7. (Special.) The Oreyon Aggies trounced the alumni eleven by the score of 22 to 6 in a game full of features on both sides. Dick Garber earned the first score for the Aggies by a drop kick from the 30-yard line. Coach Rutherford used 20 men in the game, including two sets of backfield men and two end combi nations. The Aggies were without Everett Miller, flashy half, and Juddy Ash, a 200-pound lineman, because of lame shoulders. Dick Garber and Hugh McKenna both featured at running through broken field and as field generals.. Bert Winne and Luke Gill worked at halves. Gill punted for the Ag gies, making an average of 50 yards against the wind. He also made some nice broken field runs for ten and 15 yards. The second-string backfield, made up of Claud Christensen at Quarter, Oliver Jessup and Ray McCart at halves and li ving day at full, is not as effective as the first-string ag gregation. Murius McFadden and Millard Scott at ends pulled down several forward passes of 20 and 25 yards. Captain Percy Locey and Ed Clarke at tackles broke through the alumni dffense and smeared play after play. Herbert Rich looked sweet at center, while both Mose Lyman and Dean Micklewait handled the guard berths in great style. Andy Crowell recovered a fumble on his own 30-yard line and made the only touchdown for the alumni. The game was free from penalties, only four being called for off-side on the Aggie eleven.

Ths lniversity of Washington today de feated the University of Montana team, 26 to 0. Washington scored early in the first quarter on a long run and touchdown by Abel, -Bryan successfully placing a kick between the posts in the try for score. Wash ington's line seemed stronger than last week and Montana was unabie .to make consistent yardage. In the second period Heck bucked across the Grizzlies' line for the purple and gold's second touchdown, - but the ensuing try for score failed. Washington's third marker came near the end of the period, Ziel'n long pass to Hall netting 30 yard,?, placing the ball over the line. Dai ley, who replaced Abel at quar terback for Washington, made a successful placement. Washington's offensive was weak in the third and fourth periods, the purple and gold men scoring only oire' touchdown in the half. The lone score came in the third frame,' when line bucks by Bryan and Beck brought the ball within striking dis tance of the goal, and Abel car ried it over for a touchdown. Bryan failed to convert. Washington's defense was strong, and while Montana several times carried the pigskin into purple and gold territory, the huskies kept their opponents from advancing dangerously near the goal. The Crlzzlies used the forward pass ef fectively in the fourth period, which ended with the ball in Washington's possession on the Montana 30-yard line.

Oct-1 l- 7. (Special.) There was a 1 . , . ncrr pri 1 u 1 "c grounds at 2 o'clock this afternoon than when Umpire Hildebrand ter 4 o'clock. called the second game of the series Bit c omedy Is Noted. on account of darkness. A drizzly There was one bit of comedy In rain was falling. Fog patches the sixth, when big Kelly hit the drifted in over the grandstands and first ball Mays pitched to-him, foui out again over the signs advising! ing into the left wing of the grand- baseball fans to smoke cabbage-leaf ciKars and wear collars. Pitcher's box and base lines were mud, and the turf was a skating rink. It was good football weather, chill and damp, but unlike anything in which a world series game had ever been played before. Thousands who ex pected the game to e called off stayed away, and this gave seat holders along the front lines a chance to move back into the grand stand under cover. The packed bleachers, however, sat it out. The Giants, winning their third game with a 4-to-3 score, proved that they can play ball in the mud as well as on dry land. Perhaps Carl Mays couldn't do his stuff with a wet baseball. There's no denying that the Giants pasted his offerings all over the lot. But the Giants have struck their batting stride, and very likely they would have hit Mays delivery just the same if the day had been as dry as the Amer ican merchant marine. t.iantH Are Hlttlnpr Ball. The Giants are hitting the ball. That's the answer to the upset of 90 per cent of the dopesters in this series. The Giants are hitting and the Yanks are not. In the first inning it looked as if the batting ability of the teams had been reversed when Witt smashed a single over second. Dugan singled to left field and Babe Ruth got hold ot one that McQuillan incautiously tossed over within reach of his long bat and cracked it high and far into left center. It looked as if Babe Ruth was at last coming into his own and the crowd set up a roar that rolled down half way to the Battery. But Cunningham, running like a streak under the ball, chased it nearly to the bleachers and pulled it out of the air with hjs gloved hand be fore i t cou Id esca pe. It was a wonderful catch, the most remark able of many, that have marked the week's play, and likely it saved the game for the Giant Rallying from the momentary dis appointment the Yanks scored two runs, singles by Pipp and Bob Meu sel bringing in Witt and lugan. Un til the fifth inning, the struggling 15 i ants were unabie to offset that lead and what might have happened if the lead had been four or ffve I runs instead of two no one can guess. The Yanks scored only once again, when in the seventh inning, wit h two out and no runners on bases. Aron Ward drove a screech ing home run into the top row of the left field, bleachers. t.tanta Rewarded In Fifth. It was in the fifth that the Giants were rewarded for their persistent pounding at everything Mays sent across. Snyder hit a hot liner that Scott could reach only w:-th one ha-nd, and the ball skipped on into right field. McQuillan hit a two bagger that fairly left a trail of steam on its way to the left field fence. Bancroft drove one to Ward, and the ball on hitting the ground hopped over Ward's head and sped on to center, while Snyder and Mc Quillan scored. Heinie Groh smashed one to Mays and the wet ball skid ded from his hand a nd was re trieved too late to get Heinie at first. Frisch sacrificed, and then Irish Meusel tapped a bounding ball to Ward, while Bancrolt scored. s8 : ficj W - OPreRffCTS.

The crowd roared with laughter while Schang ran around in circles trying to snag one of the fouls, and finally Kelly smashed a long liner to center and was caught out. The only betting proposition left that seems to interest the fans is that the Giants, will make it four straight. Copyright. 1922. y Bell Syndicate. Inc.) Broken Spirit Is Burying Yanks, Thinks McGraw. Giant Leader Declare "There .o Fight Left In Them." N EW YORK, Oct. 7. (By the As sociated Press.) Broken spirit is burying the Yankees in the pit of world series defeat, in the opin ion of John McGraw, Giant leader. "There's no fight left in them," said McGraw after the fourth game today. "If they had been fighting they would not have lost in the ninth inning, for they booted several chances to tie the score. "In the fifth inning we got hits ana breaks, too, and we took ad vantage of 'v. every one. We won the gr.me in that inning. "Bob Meusel's. half-hearted lop ing to first in the seventh was coKtly to the Yankees. Had Meusel dashed to first, fighting, as -he should well, figure that out. Ward's home run would have scored him. And. then Schang should never, in my opinion, have tried to s, retch his hit into two bases. The Yankees should have played for 'the tying run first. "It isn't, often that a "ball teura gets a two-bagger, a single and in field out and a long fly in one in ning without scoring. Yet the Yan kees had these in the ninth today and failed. "The Giants have been fighting every inch of the way. and without thi fighting spirit they would have been perhaps three games behind instead of three ahead. Miller Huggins, the Yankee lead er, attributed the loss of the fourth game to "the ill fortunes "of the gome." "We may have made errors of judgment." he said, "but we were try ing. We wanted to win and w-e took chances. We didn't play ball as we can play it, I'll admit, but there's no use whimpering about it. "There's left to us a fighting chance. I think we'll take it. If we lose the series we'll lose it fight ing." "Bullet Joe" Bush, chased from the game by the Giant batters in the opener, is to have the job of holding off the Nationals in the fifth game tomorrow. Sam Jir.es, who has finished two games for the Yankees, is being held in reserve. Si. pleased is McGraw with the pitching staff that" the experts call "iidferior" that he may give the youthful Ryan a chance tomorrow. Jor.nard also is an eligible. .Nehf ' VILLA, FILIPINO WHO KNOCKED OUT JOHNNY BUFF FOR ..-itt,iu.-7r KsOT HTY.4Gi STRAaKT - BUT So FAST "THAT BuoCKtNtii 40 f"L.ORE.6 .

Cunningham's brilliant work afield today won McGraw'a praise, Cunnie pulled Ruth's drive off the center-field bleacher wall in the firsi inning, and then in the ninth made the throw that caught Schang at second after the Yankee catcher had poked a single over second. Casey Stengel still is suffering frrm his lame leg and Cunningham will stay in center field. SiCHICilEO G1E DELAYED CANCELLATION OF THIRD OF CITY SERIES CRITICISED.

"If the umpires were going to call the game off, why didn't c-hey come out early about noon so that the public would not be compelled to make the fruitless trip from all parts of the city to the ball park? It's an outrage." The umpires arrived at the ball park shortly before game time, and after inspecting the grounds de clared them unfit to play on. Their decision was final. Thousands of ticket-holders and fans started their journey to the ball park shortly after noon, and at game rime were gathered about the gates, trying to get into the park. Others formed in long lines about the numerous ticket booths outside the park, either to exchange their tickets or obtain a refund. GOLF TO F Ii NAM EXT EXCITING Central Idaho-Eastern OregoA Series at La Grande Fast. LA GRANDE, Or.. Oct. 7. (Spe cial.) Top-notch golfers of central Idaho and eastern Oregon battled today on the La Grande Country club courses in what is proving to be the fastest display of golf talent the course here ever has seen. The course par of 39.. nine holes, was not touched, nor has it been, and prob ably will not be, but some eight or ten men shot better, than bogey. Points thus far won are Boise, 503; La Grande, 478; and Baker, 445. Boise, with a toehold on the cup, appears the winner, but can be overtaken tomorrow. High-point men for Boise include Cummock. Baker and Smith. For Baker club Patterson, Ryder and Dr. Horton are outstanding men of the ten-man team.' Larison, Reynolds and Bohnenkamp turned in the best scores for La Grande. Boise had 12 men and Baker 15, though only ten contested officially. A yannigan team made up the foursomes. Fine weather prevails and tomor row's scores likely will be1 even more sensational tshan today's. Auto Racer Is Killed. DENVER. Colo.. Oct. 7.

Mis. nAu ii OovjM, PANCHO VILLA IS QUICK AS ANIMAL IN JUNGLES Filipino Fighter Trained in Expert Physical Stunts Too Rapid for Opposition From White Boxers. BY ROBERT EDGREN. PANCHO VILLA was brought up, like his .ancestors for thou sands of years back, in the Philippine jungles. Perhaps that is why Pancho shows the fighting characteristics of all denizens of the wild. It accounts for his eye-bewildering speed and the sudden, catlike quality of every movement In the ring. Wild animals, brought up where every day is a new fight for ex istence and only the swift survive, develop quickness unknown in civil- ization. A cow is slow and deliberate, but an African buffaio is so swift and sudden in action that hunters say it is the most dangerous of all ani mals to meet A domestic cat is quick, but a wildcat is ten times quicker. A trafned fighting dog has a certain amount of speed, but an Alaskan wolf can jump around it and slash it to ribbons without any trouble at all. Filipino la Quick. The same inherited speed is In Pancho Villa, the Filipino who knocked out Johnny Buff in 11 rounds and won the American fly weight title in Brooklyn. The same speed Is in Floret, the Filipino lightweight who came over with Villa and has been fighting around New York lately. Watching Villa in his fight against Johnny Buff I couldn't help thinking it's lucky for Jack Iemp sey that Filipino fighters are all little fellows. A heavyweight built like Villa and gifted with the same jungle speed and strength, the same sinewy grace that lends power to every movement, the same coolness and courage, and the same degree of clean boxing skill, would give the big fellow all he could handle. Another thing that struck me, looking Villa over, was that it would be very inconvenient to have one of these swift little fellows snicking at one's legs with a bolo. He' a Perfectly Formed. Pancho Villa is almost a midget. He is less than five feet tall, but perfectly formed. His muscles are smooth and long, and not abnormal ly developed. His shoulders are wide; his back a wedge that tapers smoothly to a small waist. He is neat and trim. His head is rather large and is set on a strong neck. His features are distinctly oriental. There may be Chinese blood in h'im, if appearances go for anything. His cheek bones are wide and prominent, his eyes black, small, oblique and close-set. His eyes are one of his most strik ing features. They are extremely elert. He has the expression of a cat hunting. His nose is short, mouth large and tight lipped, and chin ag gressive and rounded. His straight black nair, very glossy, is brushed back. It starts down near his eye brows. He has no marks of fight ing except slightly flattened ears. Yet Villa has been doing a lot of fighting among Filipinos and Aus tralians, and has made a good be ginning in this cpuntry. Age Telia on Buff. When Villa fought Buff for the flyweight title he met a veteran who didn't know how to take a backward step. Age was telling on Buff, and it was evident that he hadn't recovered after being seri ously ill three months ago, but he was as aggressive as ever. He went right after Villa from the start. Johnny Buff had many surprises in that fight. First, he couldn't hit Villa with any force. The little Ftlipino stood close, not wasting any time in dancing or jumping around in the silly style affected oy most of the modern boxers in this country. Someone taught those Fil ipino boys how to box. There isn't Pancho Duoka Punches. Without moving backward or sidestepping Villa either made Buff miss entirely, by snapping his head away from the blow, or broke the force of the punches he couldn't en- ; tirely avoid by pulling back yith them. Once Buff caught Villa with a terrific uppercut that apparently lifted his'head two feet in the air and straightened him up from a crouch to his full height. The crowd let out a hopeful shout, but Villa only let a wide smile break through his poker expression. He wasn't hurt at all. He had snapped his head far back with the blow, his chin traveling almost as fast as Johnny's glove, taking all the sting out of the punch Afterward Buff said he "couldn't feel Pancho's weight at the end of his arm." That was natural. Pan cho's weight was moving away too fast to offer much resistance or re ceive much of a shock. Counters Take Effect. Yet Pancho never jumped back. He was still there in fighting range when his head bobbed into position. FLYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP. That Buff couuuT yvjotp rr , and usually he caught Buff with two or three lightHing-fast counters before he could recover. Villa's speed enables him to do things not often seen in the ring. For instance, time and again he hit Buff sharply in the body with a short left hook and brought the same hand up Instantly In a hard smash on the chin that the cham pion couldn't either block or avoid. The Filipino Sfemed able, because of his catlike quickness, to whip a left or a right into Buff's bedy wheneveV he wanted to, or to hit him cleanly on the chin at will with either hand. Villa was careful and deliberate a master of boxing. He had the entire lack of expression of an oriental, except in his quickly shifting eyes. His expression changed only twice in the fight. Twice he smiled. The rest of the time he might as well have worn a mask. Villa Hood Sport, Too. It .was easily to. be seen that Villa was a "finisher." After three or four rounds the only question was whether he could "start" Buff before the time limit was up. Jn the tenth he knocked Buff down hard three times In succes sion. The third would have been a cold knockout but for the bell, which rang while Buff was on his face. After each knockdown Villa turned his back instantly and walked away toward his corner. The Filipinos are not only remark ably clever boxers, but they are well schooled in the ethics of the sranie. Many boxers could learn a lot about sportsmanship by watching th-m. Villa wili finish any man he "starts," and do it quickly and cleanly. He hits a tremendous blow with either hand, and is very ac curate. Hitting rapidly with the left, he bewilders his victim with a flurry of blows, and suddenly puts all his strength into a crashing left or right. He uses one hand as well as the other. Reach Is Short. As his reach ts short, he uses few straight jabs, relying alm-ust en tirely On hooked blows. Usually a hook is slower than a jab, but Villa's hooks are bo swiftly deliv ered that the spectator's eye can hardly follow his glove. Buff found it impossible to block the little Filipino's punches. The entrance of the Filipinos into American boxing in this country is going to give some champions to the lighter classes. Before this, since boxing began in the Philip pines, they have sent many good men to Australia. About a year ago an' Australian champion, traveling to America to fight, stopped in the Philippines en route to pick up a little easy money. Pancho Villa knocked him out. That's why we have Pancho in our midst. (Copyright, 1022. by P-ll Syndicate. Inc.) ChehaliH Beats Monteaano. CHEHiS, Wash.. Oct. 7 (Spe cial.)

The parade of newly formed Itoats was headed by Hob Meusel. who re fused to run out an tnfle'.d tap In the seventh Inning, where Groh threw low and Kelly fumbled, coat ing a tally in the wake of Ward f nsuing home run In to the left field stands. Ry this direct viola tion of the first principle of bsaehall. which is "run . 'em out." Msuarl tossed awMy the most important run of the afternoon. But Meusel, even with this terrific l'nr, was not the lone goat in the herd. He had enouah compsny to kep ten gt herders buay.

The Yankees were outfought and the Yankees were out -i hnunht by a better, smarter ball club, but for all t hat It required a new turn of lnp-sided versatility to throw away the game. Nothing short of wheer genius In the subtle art of losing could have provided for that tnird dfat. They had th muddy scrimmage won in the first It-ning and refused to take it as a gift. They had it tied up In the sev enth, and promptly hacked away. They had It tied again Id the ninth, only to arise on more upon their hind legs and take a sock un der the left car, with a sure draw in sight. The human feet are made to run with. Undoubtedly they have their place in the scheme of things. They are in nj sense to be df-spised ot left at home. They have thtr use In arriving at one's destination, but thy are rarely supposed to direct the way. Yet. by adopting this quaint system with their feet in full control, the Yanks merrily tossed awsy three tallies and poaslbly four or five. Yanks Still Can M In. In the somber wake of this last defeat, the Yanks still can win out by snagging four straight victories from a ball club that has beaten, them eight out of the last nine deci sive tests, starting a year ago. For last October the Giants won five out of the last sit games, and they have now added three more to the string, one of the most overwhelming cleanups in the long history of the autumn clasic. Four straight will bring ths Yanks home, four straight from s machine that has been grinding them into sausage from one yeat to another. Saturday's battle was a pitiful spectacle for thoe still clinging to a dream of American league revival. They saw the ap parently earnest and determined Yankees open an early rally asatnat Hugh McQuillan that threatened to wreck him utterly In the first chap ter of the book. They saw this rally broken up by bad base-running that shut off a flork of tallies after two had been scored. I-ater on, with this two-run lead, they saw tarl Mays crumble up completely before a sudden Giant attack that came tearing It's way through the rain and mud for ftve clean hits and four runs, one of their old. dreaded bat ting rallies that blasts its way through the opioslng defense by power, speed and Drains, tne com bination that always tells the story. Menael Almost -atop. After this, forelorn and bedrag gled, they saw Bob Meusel. sftrr rapping a ground ball to Hetnla Groh, come a-most to a dead stop on his way to firat. As it happened Groh's throw across th diamond struck In the soft dirt at Kelly's feet and bounded away from the bag. If Meusel had been running at the time he could havs landed safely in port, w!th a stride or more to spare. But Meusel wasn't run ning. He was called out, and Ward s long home run that should have tied the score found Meusel sitting on the bench. And this Is only a part of the heavy tragedy that struck Yankee fans. The ntnrn b-rouant the soggy, faithful flock even greater misery, for It began with hope in full blorn and ended with a killing blight. The Giants were still leading 4 to 2 when Pipp came to bat. Pipp opened with a clean double against the right field wall. What a chance for that needed run. Here was the walloping Willy on second base, with no one out. Meusel stepped up and hit sharply to Groh. Pipp at secend never had a chance In tha world, but in place of waiting ror the long throw across or hoMmg the bag, he promptly dashed to ear tain death, wiia Groh facing him alone the path.
