THUR8DAY BVBNIWG, DECEMBER M. i" 1 ' 11 1 ' ' ' - 1 Ifi 1 ' 1 1 i ""71 MULTNOMAH MEN ARE TRAINING HARD J.ocal Eleven Vlot Taking Any Chances With the Farmers From Corvallis. MART PRATT WILL ' BE IN THE CAME A. C. Men Confident That They Will Surprise the Winged "M" Team. Afin lam nights football workout, Captain Howling: was pleaeed. and atated that If the Multnomah team plays against the O. A. i aggregation on Christmas day with the same dash and consistency aa characterised the last two practices, a severe beating would certainly be meted out to those farmers from Corvallis. The good news waa received this morning that Martin Pratt would be here for the next two games. Pratt Is one of Multnomah's most reli able performers and always plays with the aame dash and spirit. He Is strong with the ball and la a terror to the oppo nents' Interference when It comes hla way. 'With Pratt on the ground, and with Kirkley and Btow, M. A A. C. wUl be well provided with powerful tackles. From the reports thst are being wafted from the classic city of Corvallis It la certain that O. A. C. Intends to Bring a big surprise on the clubmen on Monday next. Walker. O. A. C.'a big center, had a dream the other night that was full of ominous portend for the local brigade. When Farmers begin to dream about games, look out for a tumble. Aa the result of Walker's at range dream Captain Dowllng has or dered another practice this evening, in order to kill the charm of Walker'a nightmare. LADIES NIGHT AT MULINOMAH CLUB Tonight the women will hold sway at the Multnomah club. The entire insti tution belongs to the fair sex and their friends.

It Is likely that1 Count Villa of Seattle and W. Lair Thompson of Albany will officiate in the Multnomah-O. A. C. match s A Corvallis report states that Captain Pllklngton has nearly recovered from the injuries that kept him out of the Oregon g.me, and that he may play against M. A. A. C. That's good news, as' Pllklngton Is a fine player and will be a big help to his team. While most of the positions for the Christmas game have been practically 1 decided upon, there are several that will r.ot be awarded until the afternoon of the game. Betting on the Beattle-M. A. A. C. game. Is already on the boards Last night a Seattle sympathiser said some thing about betting, and In a second he waa surrounded by a crowd of Mult nomah men who were anxious to take some of his coin. . He finally bet 120 - at even money thai Seattle would win. It would tie a glood schema If Dolph were used more In running with the ball, ss he Is a good man to keep hla feet and has plenty of grit and strength Foley of the second M. A. A.

(Journal Special rVrrlct. ) Corvallis. Dec. 2i. Interest is waxing warm here in the Christmas football game. The chartering of a special train with a vary low rate of fare has placed the trip within ths reach of all, and many supporters of the team will Jour neyAo the city Monday to see the play. A new Interest Is, awakened by the fact that Captain Pllklngton la again In con dition, and that It la posslDle that he may enter the game. His strength as a player and punter and his well known strategy as a field captain give a roseate coloring to the game when friends of the team figure on the possibility that ha may play. If he playa. It Is not likely that Coach Steckle will enter, though the latter la in training along with hla men as a measure of preparedness. If he plays. Steckle will alternate at fall back and tackle, and Abraham, one of the All-Northwest tacklea of the season, will be his counterpart In the two posi tions. The latter is one of the heaviest line plungers and most formidable In carrying the ball. Bundy and Root, both of whom were out of the Eugcne Corvallls game, srs both In their places, while Ray Walker. Burrows. Steiwer, Harding' and substitute players are making spirited competition far places with the older men. The result of the Seat tie-Multnomah game last Sat urday has thrown a new phase Into the comparative scores, and the estimate here la that the game next Monday will not be one-sided.

FIRST BIG DEFEAT A HEAVY SETBACK John L. Sullivan, Frank Erns and Kid Lavigns Ara Examples of This Ciasa. Now that the first flurry of excite ment over the whipping of "Young Cor bett" Is past, sporting man are dis cussing ths future chances of the. little Denverlte. When Young Corbatt beat Terry McGovern In auch magnificent atyle three years ago In Hartford, fol lowers of the game were satisfied that iu youngater had appeared on the seen) who would last. When he repeated hla victory over the hitherto Invincible Terry In San Francisco tha opinion seemed verified. Young Corbett was a small edition of John L Sullivan. He had the Ideal fighting build, and nervous force enough to carry a heavyweight through his bat tles. Hla. legs were good and from the waist up hs was more a welterweight In build than a lightweight. Ha had sturdy forearms, and hla (lata were chunky and round and heavy perfect macblnea for delivering the knockout blow. He had no end of courage and eonfldence.. Ha was not a clever boxer, but there was no doubt that as a ring, general he waa the equal. If not the superior, of all tha little fighters In hla class, For two yeara he went through the ranks of feather and light welghta like a bull In a china shop. Yet In spits "f his natural fight ing quallficattbna. "Corbett" dropped aa suddenly aa he had risen. The first In dication that he was not Invincible came a yea ago, when Jimmy Brltt, then little known In the east, outfought .him In 20 rounds. Eastern sporting men who had seen "Corbett" would not be lieve that ha had bean whipped fairly. They thought that the referee had won the fight for - Brltt. and predicted that when Brltt and "Corbett" met again there would be a sudden reversal of form. Ia that fight Brltt won through box ing cleverness aa well aa fighting ag gressiveness. "Young Corbett" waa "there" al) the way through the fight, but he waa outpointed In spite of hla constant rushing. He finished a little weary, but fit to fight 10 rounds mora If he had been called upon to do so. A year of rest from the ring and the Denverlte faced "Battling Nelson." a comparative novice, who had not aa yet done anything to show that he had a chance to win the fight. The betting was 2 to 1 In "Corbett's" favor. Hla crushing defeat In 10 rounds came as a paralysing surprise to all of "Young Corbbetfs" friends, and to 'Cor bett" himself. In six rounds "Battling Nelson" beat 'him down, stopped hla rushes, had tha little fighter, who never before had acknowledged a superior, clinching and holding to save himself. Four rounds more "Corbett's" grit alone kept him on his feet, through a terrific grueling, and then the sponge was thrown Into ths ring, and the defeated youngster, who bad so lately been a terror among the other fighters In hts class, waa carried limp and helpless to his corner. Courage Is the one thing that survives dissipation. That la the reason that Young Corbett waa not whipped sooner. Mis endurance, his strength and quick ness disappeared in the first six rounda. It mnat have come to him with crush ing force there in the ring tha Idea that he had been a fool. One year of hard drinking and furloua dlaslpatlon succeeding his defeat by Brltt had turned his muscles to putty and his nerves to streaks of rust instead of live wires. But now- the question is whether or not Young Corbett can come backT He has his youth that Is all that la left him to work on. He says that he will try. There is Just a chance; but, Judging from the experience of other defeated champions of the ring, it is a bare one. Terry McGovern, who did not take to dissipation after being whipped by Cor bett, has done soma good fighting since that time, and now saems to bo almost In hla old form. But he has not yet a chance to try again with a champion In hla own class; and It la impossible to tell whether or not ha Is really the Terry of old. George Dixon, who was whipped out of his championship by Terry, never recovered even, a flaah of hla old form. But he waa aid. He went on fighting. A few weeks ago, In England, he loat a bout to a youngster who had never been heard of before, and It was in a third rate preliminary scrap at that. ' Kid Lavlgne. one of the greatest little champions that lived, went rapidly to pieces after lowing to Frank Erne. Ha never came back Frank Erne himself, clever aa ha was. didn't recover after hla defeat by Gana. Brltt beat him and then he dropped from sight among the fighters. Harry Forbes lost to Nell. Where is Forbes nowT - The big man turn out tha same way. John L. Sullivan fall from hla pinnacle In one swoop when he lost to Jim Cor bett. Corbett waa whipped by Fits, and never fought another winning light In the heavyweight class.. Fits waa beaten by Jeffriee. He fell back to the light heavyweight title, but his next fight with the big fellow showed him further from heavyweight championship form. In inn ii v of the Instances tha result ing decline of the fighter waa due to dissipation, as It waa with Young Cor bett. Ia game of the others It waa loss of confidence or loas of ambition. A fighter works better when he la fighting with confidence than when ha la fight ing with desperation. It la like climbing a hill. Aa long aa a man keepa hla feet he goes up with a rush. As soon as he begins to slip and struggle to catch his footing ha loses tha stride. Young Corbatt may work his way up again, but If he doea he will furnish a novelty In matters of the ring. Long, hard training might do the trick. He Is young. But while he .a working hla way up again, other ftghtera, still unde feated will be working up. too. When ha arrives near hla goal they will be waiting for him ready to oppose hla re newed strength and skill with strength and aktll that have never bean dulled by dissipation. They will hare the con fidence, and he will have the memory of defeat to handicap him. - I ALL A WALLA WALLA. (Special Dispatch u The Jeeratl ) Walla Walla. Waah.. Dae 22.
