LAST, CAME FOR MOST v ' OF LOCAL PLAYERS McMillan, Pratt, Overfield and Others Will Lay Aside FootbaU ' Armor Forever After Long and Brilliant CareersOfficial Lineup of Teams. Portland and Seattle will clash to morrow afternoon,, when . the . sturdy football member fcf th Seattle Atb letio club and th Multnomah Amateur Athletlo cjub meet in the local gridiron for supremaoy, the prise being th Pa cific northwest championship. The gam will be undoubtedly th hardest fought battle of the season, and each team Will put In its best men. who will endeavor - to play their beat football. Inasmuch as a very Important champion- snip is at stake, the Seattle coaches hava scoured th entire sound country in an endeavor to secure players who will be able to cope with Multnomah' men. Whether or not Seattle will be successful remain to be seen, but If th visitors do not put up a much finer gam than they played against Multno mah on" December 10, when the game resulted In no snore, then th follower of old Multnomah will have ' another chance to do some crowing. With all th' talk that has been going the rounds aboufthe formidable team that will op pose MUltnomah. th SeatUe backer are a yet a trifle slow In putting up their coin on their team, and with Se attle making diligent preparations for a victory. Pet Overfield," George McMil lan and Dave Jordan hava been 1uat aa dllfamt in getting the local in trim for the battle. It may be truthfully said that Mult nomah Is expecting th hardest gam of her entUe career from the Seattle team, notwithstanding the fact that Multno mah played a tie "at SeatUe but 15 -days ago. According to the dope it looks as if 'the gam would b a close ohe. with very little advantage on either aide, buU wuu .i. uiwv ine ciuai strength of the locals feet that in this game, above all others, th local eleven will for once this season demonstrate Its complete strength. It may be said that Multnomah has shown her full strength this year but several times, and wheat ne aia, u was inagniiicent to nenold. On offense it was demonstrated In the first seven " minutes of the ; Oregon game, and during th first 11 minutes of the Corvallls contest On defense it waa shown against the Sherman Indiana. Oregon, Willamette and Seattlebut only In spots, the last gam being the excep tion, and in that, .th team did splendid defensive work throughout Flashes -of brilliant work have kept) th followers busy all season figuring out what Multnomah could really do if the boy played consistent balL From 'the pres ent indications, practice of the past week and the general sentiment among the football members of th club, there Is a faint suspicion gaining ground that Captain Jordan's warriors are out to win. thereby proving Multnomah's claim to th championship, and at the same time demonstrating the. real .worth of the team. X. s.. .A- In tomorrow game several of Mult nomah's1 men will play their last game of football, laying aside their mole sklns 'and shlnguards forever. Chief among the men who will retire from the gridiron I George McMillan, one man who has 'played longer than any other player in this country, and whose record Is brilliant, honest and enduring. Mar-, tin Pratt will aSso play , bis final game after nearly 11 years of splendid work. Peter Overfield, with, about 10 years to his credit will quit ., the fascinating game. Chester Murphy has already quit tne game, witn a nrst-ciass record fee. hind him. and J. A. Horan will also cess football , after nearly IS years' recreation. Marlon Dolph and Frank Lonergan say that they have played their last, and - Roy Kirkley and "Chancy" Bishop say that seven years are enough for them, The "old guard, or the "has-beens," s "green les" often call them, are go ing to try to bring one more victory to tne club berore stepping down and out In order to make room for th fast and promising young members who have gjven evidences of great futures on the gridiron. , . - McMillan will direct th club' play tomorrow, and a the boy have eternal faith ' in hi expert knowledge - of . the game, it is safe to assum 'that -there will be something .doing.

WHAT PRINCETON WANTS IN FOOTBALL REFORM 1 Princeton has -finally reached a con clusion as to what changes and tnodin- catlona it desire la th football rule to meet the demand for action against brutality and unnecessary rough play. President Woddlow -Wilson and the faculty committee on outdoor sports have announced the principal changes they will Recommend to the rule com mittee for the proper reformation of the game as follows: ' "1. That in th playing of th gam all Interference be abolished. "2. That all coaching by men who are , paid in any way directly or in directly, or who receive their expense or any part of them, ba done away with. . "S. That the number of intercol legiate contest be much decreased and the length of th season for such con tests be correspondingly shortened." The first suggestion is for the purpose of abolishing all maasvplays and of re storing th original tpen game. The second suggestion is designed to plaoe th gam upon a purely amateur foot ing and to restore to the player them selves the Initiative, of which In re cent years- they have been deprived. The object of the third suggestion 1 to decrease the amount of time and energy the players at- now obliged to devote to the game. The committee ha Instructed Princeton' representa tive upon th rule committee, J. B. Fin, to urge upon that committee the acceptance of the first suggestion. SPORTING GOSSIP.

Hanlon' ault seems to lie In the fact that he 1 on of those athletes who abhor the rigors of training. Many times he ha en tered the ring In poor condition. ' He depended upon his youth and skill, of which ne possesses a lot, to carry mm through. But nature soon rebelled and he lost., This fact waa easily illustrated In his mill with Terry McGovern at Philadelphia a trifle over a year ago. For three round Hanlon wa as fast as chain lightning. He got to Terry without much trouble and it looked as If McGovern would be beaterr. In th fourth Hanlon had McGovern down and In' g bad way. McGovern' friend expected to see Terry go out In short order and turned their eyes away so that they could not witness McGovern humiliation. But McGov ern got to his pins slowly and seemed to recover, at any rate ha aimed a right wing. The blow crashed on Hanlon's jaw and th little Callfornlan fell on hi face dead to the world. - McGovern did pot realise what he had done for a few seconds, but when - they carried Hanlon to hla corner it dawned On him that he had snatched victory out of th fir by the closest of margins. - What Hanlon's future Is no one seem to know... It is doubtful whether he will quit for good. Th ring Jia too many -Charms for some pugilists even after they know that Itjis. useless for them to continue. Fltxsimmon real ised thl too late. But Hanlon 1 merely a youngster and ha many ' year of fighting ahead of him. If he will only see the folly of Injudicious preparation he may come Into hi own again. He Is strong anf -xlever , and all that he wants flow Is some aid from nature. He can get thl if he will pay some at tention to hi health. ".. . .
