The Multnomah eleven waa composed of older, more experi enced men. ' But Oregon put up a good 'game against them, and ahowed that It possessed a) few stara of Its own. ' The entire record of this football sea son has been most creditable., But .twice has the University of Oregon gone down to dofeat to Stanford university and M. A. A. C. The first game of tha season waa with tha alumni of the university. The soars stood IS to I In favor of the 'varsity. ' Then, without -any other preliminary games, the team took the hard trip to San Francisco and played tha. University of California to a tie of 0 toil, and. .was defeated by Stan ford by a score of 10 to 4. Chemawa next met Oregon on the gridiron and auccumbed, to a score of 17 to 0. Wil lamette university' waa defeated by' a score' of II to . In the most hotly .contested game of the season, with college loyalty at a white heat of enthu siasm. Oregon Agricultural college was defeated, by a scors of S to . This game holds the same prominence In Oregon that the bame between Stanford and California has in California. . It Is 'the end of the Interoollegtate) series. Sis hundred rooters came to Eugene f rop- Coorvallle to support . their team. For su hour, before the contestants ap peared on the gridiron 'the grandstand resounded with the rival shouts of the colleges.'. From tha end draped In, black and orange would pour forth tha yell: '. v .,. .,,:.. "Zip boom be. . .-' '- ' i Zip boom be. 'J ; O. A.0. A ' "" O. A.

Oh CorvaUle, have a differ ' ent hue. . - Silent ara youe rootere," Beaten through and through. : ""; ' Oh, you have met your Waterloo .Since flrat we met you,- '' - '". '. Oood Ittanl Blvalxy.

The Oregon people turned (t Into sn In formal Jolly-up. After the last wnistis blew the Oregon rooters poured ovor the bleachers, on -to the Aeld -and-joyfully unfurled a pennant bearing the legend "Champions of Oregon." Waving this they danced the serpentine, formed the U. of O. and made the city' of Eugene . aware of tha victory. The game with the Multnomah dub. ended the season' and Oregon again was defeated by tha club with a score of (-0. -"Every man on the team fills his po sition well. - Hug, at center, that thank- less position, plays a splendid, game, that even the most ' unsophisticated bleacherlte can see. Tetnpleton, left half playa a steady game that marks tilm as one of the moot consistent play ers on the coast,' especially strong on defense. Latourette runs his team with great speed and. considerable skill. Ker- ron and McKlnnej- are II nee mashers worthy the name.- Hurd, the freshman from Michigan, who made his 'varsity sweater In the gamea with 'Willamette -and O. A. C. Is even now a heady player and' promises much when developed. Moullen. from California, la also a fresh man. but distinguishes himself by his punting. Arnspiger playa a veteran game that shows his experience. - But "Weary"- Chandler at right end- la no ticeably the star of the team. He playa a very heady game and by hla fleetness and aure tackling proves him self to be one of the beat enda on the .coast' When Oregon played Stanford , the dally paper of that untveralty Bald V - .2 rut. ..!: ....am rfefssted land Academy Reading from right to left, top row: Professor Moroney coach, Looney fullback.

' - Splendid Spirit Saowa. .i , Tha fine .nii-lt manifest at University of Oregon Is the power that moved the team to such a Una or victories, ii is the spirit of clsan. fair play and a be lief that, tha beat team will win, but however fortune falla Oregon will make a creditable showing of which each student will feel proud. Victory Is won by merit and defeat Is borne bravely. Oregon has never aullled her honor by any discreditable treatment of a visiting team. Bhe IS ever wunwu., generous victor, always a worthy foe. Bruce Bhorta, the coacn irom mium- a-an. baa devaloned tne gooa ngnwna nirit of tha team which has made It fight for every Inch of ground. He Is an exponent of fair play and can take defeat, or victory equally well, for he alwaya aaya "the best team won." That's the purpose or tne game, any way. '. . - . - ' U. of O. Itself Is wsking up sna gives the team much enthusiastic support which all goes to make a food tsam and to win victories. University of California and Stanford are also waking up. to the fact that the U. of O. team Intends to make a place for Itself In athletlo lines and to help make the history of athletics on , the Pacltto coast. The yearly southern trip that Oregon has made has made this fact evident. Stanford la now consider ing sending her track team to meet U. of O. thea spring instead of making the usual trip to Pomona. ' This renaissance of eollege spirit Is not only revivifying athletics but la even now showing itself in the general betterment of the university. CIUB'IEH FAIL TO TURN OUT FOR PRACTICE Coach Oyerfield Says It Will Take Hardest Kind of Work to-defeat Opponents. The Multnomah squad failed to show up for practice last evening end Coach Overfle!dwae a trifle put nut over the nonappearance of tha players. It Is a fact that the team Is greatly In need of practice, and especially. In view of the fact that tha All-Balem Stara and the Seattle Athletlo club elevena are workJ Ing like Trojans for their gamea on Christmas and New Tear's with Mult nomah. I - Any one knowing "Chancy" Bishop, Is aware, that ha can coach football as well as play it, and with him playing half and captaining the all-atars,"-the clubmen will see where they will have to do some lively stepping if they wish to keep In the procession with the stars on neat Monday afternoon. - Coach Overfield haa not decided how he will line up hla team against Salem, being unable to tfefl until the last part of the week. It tit likely, however, that Overfield will be at center,, Saunders, Woodruff and Burt at guards, McMillan and.. Pratt tackles. Jordan and Dowllng enda, Rupert quarterback, Clark, James, Dlmmlck and Austin In the back field. The eleven may be shaken up some what -on .therf allure of several pf the players to report for practice. The Christmas - game will start promptly at 1:10 o'clock and Frank Lon ergan wnt-TefoTWrPn- Olluger of Balem umpiring. .

MOUNT ANGEL FOOTBALL TEAM. ; 'v McMinnvilla and Woodburn and tied FITZ-18 FAVORITE OVER OllEIl Cornlshman 1 Is Being Heavily Backed in His Contest With : Jack O'Brien. BOTH MEN REPORTED . - IN FINE CONDITION Sentiment During ,. Last Few Days Has Turned In: Bob's Favor nd Now Money Is Being Poured in Upon His Chances. '' i Jnarnal RnMUl Service.) - S6Trranclsoo, CaL. Pec. JO. San Francisco sports pick Bob Fltsslmmons to win In his contest here tonight with Jack O'Brien. Apparently there is not much bettina- -belna done on the result. but the wagers so far show the Cornlsh man a alight favorite. Though It la the last bla- flsht that will probably be aeen here In some time, the Interest in the event la not by any means of an intense order. The Tosemlte chib, however. expects Mechanics' ptvllion to be well filled when the bell calls .tne two giau latora Into the arena. ' - , If the reports emanating from the two training quarters today are to oe reueu uoon. a feeling of supreme- confidence In the -result pervades the atmoephere aurroundlng both fighters, Both jnen are described as being in the best pos sible physical condition and anxious xor tha fray. Both Fltsslmmons and O'Brien have appeared. In. the tring here on several nrevlous occasions, so that the local critics are qualified In a measure to make a comparison of their respective merits and chancea of auccess. Opin ions heard around the cafes today- and elsewhere where sporting men congre gate generally agree that If Fits, was the Fighting Bob of old. O'Brien would land little mhow of winning the decis ion and tha Ions and of the purse. Bull It seems to be the consensus Of opinion that Fitnlmmom ' will not be able to stand the pace in a long distance fight with man nt O'Brien's- caliber. In- a nutshell, it is are against youth, with the chances naturally favoring the lat ter. Though young In jreara. O'Brien has had experience enough , to enable him to face the best or tnem wun a feellna- of confidence. There Is no pos sibility of stage fright on his part In addition he has' demonstrated that he possesses cleverness, footwork and ring generalship In a- superlative degree. About all that Fltsslmmons has In his favor ta his fearful punch. Those who have aeen hlra In' training The last few weeks declare that he can hit as hard a blow as when -he knocked out Jack Dempsey, or when he won the cham pionship from Corbett So, If he wins, he will, have to do the trick with hla famous blow and do It wlthia the .first six or slant rounds. Generally followers of the game are figuring on - O'Brien making Fits step around llvsly during the earlier rounds of the contest, but if he should not suc r.eed in slloDln over a hard punoh or two 4n this period of the fight it -Is thought that Fits will come on and win ' from O'Brien by outpointing him. t l-ii.i.iiMi-tTiir ttin turn 4lahta nf the two men, the facts also snowio y orieu s i advantage. O'Brien, only a short time ago. met 'Al Keufmann, the big coast heavyweight,- and hammered him down and out after an - interesting battle Fltsslmmons' last fight waa with George Oaxdnar. Fltsslmmons waa In poor con dltlon for ' the 1 fight Besides ' ha smashed his hands early In tha -eon teat and It waa only because he had Gardner bluffed that he waa able to go the to rounds and win from tne New England man. Fltsslmmons' hands are reported In good condition for tonlght'a go. - . The. light will be a finish affair, as the articles provide for 10 rounds or more. The two will battle for per cent of the gross receipts, to be divide! 7S per cent to the winner and 25 per cent to the loser. The Marqula of OuMuhur rules will govern the eon test The winner of the fight will probably be matched to meet Marvin Hart at an eariy aaio. flewnsiisom of the Fltsslmmons.
