over Frank Watklns met wilder one
day and aald: "Dick, ar you going to
try for tbe football team this yearT
"Well, rather," said Dick. . So when th
first call for- football candidates was
mad "Dick" Wlldar was. present. When
tfre last ysar'a aulta were unpacked and
a- pair or trousers were: nanaea mm,
Dick replied: "Heaven's delight; but a
man will need a motor to propel such
trousers." . In th course of tlm Dick
got accustomed to the heavy football
trousers and gave promise of becoming
a great end rush. One evening after a
90 minutes practice was held. In which
Dick worked every second, be rushed
up to the gymnasium and i presented
himself as a candidate for the wrestling
tryouts for ths Inter-club meet with
Seattle. Dick was pitted .. against a
husky fellow and they went at It.
Whatever happened. Dick was thrown
In brief time. When asked about It he
said:,"! had a hold on 4he. bloomln'
beggar strong enough to crush his
bonea, when he gave m a sudden twist
and the next thing t saw was the ref
eree touching him on the back, saying
"JTou win. old man." "It was done ao
fas that I hadn't time to prepare for
It." '-. ,..:' -
' This Incident I told here simply as
an evidence of how faithful the club
members are In turning out fo help th
various lines of . sport. . : .
And so It goes all along th line with
sports at Multnomah.: - Football sacri
fices men every V year and very little
does the outside world know about th
many hardships that the club's pigskin
warriors' undergo daring a season.
Many an evening's . pleasur 1 passed
by In order that practice may be held.
With the majority of a. holiday crowd
th Impression prevails that th club
team appears In new suits, and that out
side of dressing for this particular gam
and marching out In the .field nothing
Is Is Incumbent upon tha players.
No - mtik. unless ha has gone through
season of club football and gone
through It conscientiously can . ever
hop to fully appreciate , the hard and
disagreeable labors that th football
men perform.
In bowling, handbnll. pool, billiards.
basketball, fencing, tennis, track and
field, baseball and other sports, th
Multnomah club foaters the best In ath
letic. .... . ,
Among Other Organisation.
While the Multnomah club embraces
almost every form of aport. there are
other organsattons In Portland that
make a specialty of particular lines.
There Is the Portland Rowing club, with
Its proud past and Its bright future;
the -Oregon -Tacht club with Its big
membership' and interesting races each
year; the Portland Hunt club with Its
daring riders, memorable paper chases
and annual field -day events; the Wa
verly Golf club with Its beautiful links
and Its lsrre membership of golf devo
tee; the Multnomah Rod and dun club
with Ita many crack shots; fh River
sid Driving association with Us en
thusiastlo drivers- and crack roadsters;
th Portland Kennel club with Its fa
mous fanciers and renowned champions;
th Irvlngton Tennis club with Its six
beautiful courts and homelike club
house, and many other societies for th
protection and advancement of sports.
In brief, wrier will you find a city of
Portland' alto that can compare with
her In th line of high-grade sporting
and athletlo institutions? . - . s

In th fighting lln wer working out
th championship problem and Ignoring
hire entirely, and that th publlo turned
a deaf ear to his protests, and thrby
led him to suppose that he was get- .
ting his just deserts.
My, how Jo pleaded. He would fight
either Brltt or Nelson with a Jury of
sporting writers to - paas upon th
merits of hls'work, and if things looked
ths least out of lln he would be con- --'

Insisting on a lopsided division of th ' '

Gans, and th match waa on. Gans '

Gans Is th attraction and th dicta

sine he won from Nelson th colored
