WOLFE 0DTP1TS
FULLBACK CLARKE
Carl Wolfe, 0. A. C's crack punter,
yesterday outpunted 1 Dudley Clarke,
Oregon's likewise famous punter, by. a
yard and a small fraction. Wolfe in 27
punts kicked 1.020 yards for an averag
Of S7 11-27 yards, while Clarke kicked
37 times for 1,340 yards, but for an av
erage of 98 t-ST.
The punting or notn men w.as rar un
der what they could have don had th
ball been dry. i It certainly would hav
been a great battle had the weather
been mor .favorable to such style of
play. As It was. thera wer some great
kicks made. Clarke carried off the hon
ors for the longest kU k, with one of 65
yards,, while Wolfe was close behind,
with two which carried 60. Clarke lost
considerable yardage, however, by hi
kicks carrying out of bounds, for fiv
times kicks which would have gone 40
or 45 yards went out of bounds after
going but SO yards.
Wolf had two such attempts go out
of bounds, and also on punt blocked.
Latourette's great running on Wolfe's
punts did much to win tha. gam for
Oregon, and mora than offset the small
advantage which th O. A. ' C. man
gained on exchanges. Several times h
mads over 20 yards on these plays, anil
one succeeded in covering 45 yards and
twice afterwards 30 yards, running th
ball up. 1

VASHiriGTOfl TITLE
, Seattle, Wash., Nov, SI. Lincoln klgh
school football team won . the Stat
championship from .Broadway high this
afternoon by a score of 1 to. 0 In a
blinding rainstorm.
The game -was witnessed .by mor
than 3,000 enthusiasts. Th first score
of th game cam shortly after tha
start of th second half when tiewls, of
Broadway, was hurled across his own
goaf Un for a safety.- In thefirst
half Lincoln's offensive work was th
best seen here this season and Broad
way's line was ripped to ribbons. - The
ball had been in play but a few min
utes when Lincoln was oa Broadway's
five yard line. An unlucky fumble gave
the ball to Broadway jand Lewis booted
It to mldfteld. During the remainder of
the game the ball was always in Broad
way's territory, i
The second half was another story
Broadway started off with a. rush and
four times In 36 minutes worked the
ball dangerously near Lincoln's goal only
to loss It on th costliest of fumblos.
Lincoln wast badly outclassed In the
second half In t- every department of
the gam snd barely staved off" defeat.
When time was called the ball was on
Lincoln' three yard line. Just before
the finish . of the struggle, Broadway
forced th ball over Lincoln's line for
what looked like a sure touch down,
but the ball was brought back because
It was declared that Broadway had
Stopped advancing the ball when one of
her players was dragged across th
line., i- " '"!',': " ,
Punting was frequently resorted to In
wnlch department Lincoln excelled. It
via ' one of th fiercest high school
struggles ever seen in Seattle and more
than on player from each te.m was
forced to leave the game utterly ex
hausted. . The teams wer .so evenly
matched that, throwing out the safety,
it Is a toss us as which is the better
aggregation. Broadway appeared to be
stale because of her hard struggle with
Spokane high one week ago but Lin
coln waa in th best of shape.-
