- Savannah, Oa.. Nor. 15. The Inter
national grand prise race to be run here
tomorrow has attracted to Savannah
"' thousands of automobile enthusiasts
: from every part of America. The num
ber of visitors Is far in excess of the
early expectations. The small car race
today Is a sort of an appetiser for the
great contest to be-decided tomorrow.
. There are IT contestants in the small
..car event, representing the. leading
manufacturers of .America and Europe.
But it is In the grand prise race tomor
row that publlo interest is centered. It
is expected to be a struggle that for
speed and dating has never been equaled
In this or any other country. The cir
cuit of J6.75 miles .pa the outskirts of
this city includes In part 'the excellent
course used last spring in the first
Savannah rac which was won by Strang
with an Iaottai .Th old circuit haa been
lengthened an improved, and it is be
lieved to the fastest -courss ever
nftuTnA toe a. net. 1 There are no rail
road crossings and the sharp turns have
been ' oanaea surneientiy - so m cr
' can take thermal top speed. There will
be 15 laps of the course for the race,
and at the start and finish a grandstand
seating 16,000 persons has been erected.
The local authorities have made ample
provision for guarding the course and
protecting: the crowds of spectators.
. Start at t o'clock.
Th first ear In the blr race will be
sent off at t o'clock tomorrow morning
and the other machines will follow at
one minute intervals.
' Of the drivers who will pilot Ameri
can machines Willie HauDt who will
handle the Chadwic ear, is pernaps tne
best known. He has taken part in many
big races and piloted one of the cars in
the recent Vanderbilt cup contest.
Micfienor, the tester pilot, drove In the
previous ' Savannah race and In the
Brlarcllff trophy contest, and he has
been prominent In 8-hour contests In
the vicinity of New York. ZengI end
Harding are less widely known that the
others, ut they are counted as worthy
rivals of the foreigners.
. The foreigners present a formidable
. array of expert race drivers and In each
team are, to be found winners of Iro-
. nnrtunt Vnnluti. Perhans the most
conspicuous team is that from Italy, for
It contains paszaro, winacr ui mi
year's grand prlx., German emperor's
cup and Florio races,, and bolder of the
record for the fastest average time ever
made in , at- road race. - Warner, also or
the Fiat team,, won the 0 Vanderbilt
cup race with a Darracg, and De Palma,
the third Fiat driver, has won notable
victories In races on this side of the
- water. Cagno of the Itala team was
third In the Florio cup race, averaging
66.4 miles an hour and Fournier. his
team mate, also competed In the Florio
cup race but was aitcnea in me iourm
lap.
Strang In an zsotta.
The French team Includes Lewis
Strang, who this year has won the title
of leading American driver, by capturing
the Savannah, Briarcliff and Ixwell
races. Ssis, who will also pilot a
Renault in tomorrow's race, won the
Grand Prix race in France in 1806.
Drury. the- De Dietrich driver, was
third in the 190 Vanderbilt cup contest
and also drove in the same race the
year previous. The Clement team, con
sisting of Regal ana Hautvast, is not
so well known here as some of the other
drivers.
On account of the excellent showing
made bv the German drivers in the last
firand Prix race, the Bens and Mercedes
teams are considered very highly by
those who are figuring out tomorrow's
winner. Hemery will handle a Bfjnse
machine and Hanriot will he his team
mate. Hemery and Hanriot were sec
ond and third in this year s Grand Prix
and Erie, the driver of the third Bens
car in the race tomorrow, was seventh
in the Grand Pri conteat.

' his successful American rival in that
' event, both runners are resting today
' before their meeting tonignt.
The classic Marathon will be repeated
at Madison Square Garden. The full
distance of 56 miles, 385 yards will be
rune the only difference in conditions
being the fact that the present race will
be run indoors with thousands of adher

FRIGID OF PEDALS
Another interscholastlc football season
is over and the northwest football
championship has not been decided. Lin
coln high school of 3eattle. however, Is
claiming it for the simple reason that
she defeated West Side high school ear
ly In the season by the score Of 4 to 2.
Many columns of Bpace have been
used up by the Seattle papers In ref
erence to the victory of Lincoln over
West Side and they have used a doren
different theories in speaking of the
game. For the first week after the
game was played there was nothing but
praiae for the way In" which West Side
nlaved and both the Times and P.-I.
admitted that West Side although beat
en had played much better ball than
Lincoln. West 8lde had been practicing
but one week when they went to Se
attle and during the first half had the
ball In Seattle's territory most all the
time.
In the second half they weakened and
Lincoln managed to score a place kick.
while West Side succeeded In drawing
a safety.
Hill Military academy is now the
champion of Oregon and rightfully de
serves a game with Lincoln before the
Seattle boys should lay any claim to
the championship, but Instead Lincoln
has now made arrangements for a game
with Salem high school, a second rate
team. By defeating them by a large
score Lincoln will undoubtedly- claim,
that she nolds the northwest champion
ship. Meanwhile where does Portland
stand?
Lincoln in refusing Hill a date says
that the military academy boys are not
In their class. How tnat can re rig
ured no one here knows. - HH1 enjoys a
verv good credit standing among the
colleees of the country, but it has only
a regular high school standing among
the schools of Oregon ana has ror years

To make first down the team
with the ball has to carry It 10
yards In four scrimmages or downs.
Usually when a team sees that It
can't make the 10 yards It tries an
onside kick or a forward pass.
An onalda kick occurs when you
see the quarterback receive the ball"
from the center, step back and
kick forward. By doing this he
places his men onside and they
nave the right to catch the ball.
A forward pass happens when the
man who receives the ball back of
the line hurls It forward over the
Opponents to one of his own side
who has sneaked behind, the enemy's
side te eatch it. If It touches the
ground before it touches any of the
players on either side the pass Is
held illegal and the side which
made It Is. penalised 15 yards.
A fair catch is made when the
player who Is receiving a punt or
puntotit signals by raising his hand
over his '"head. He can not be
tackled. A puntout is made when
one team puts the ball across the
goal line for a touchdown at one
corner of the field, the puntout be
ing made to give the offense a clear
chance to kick goal.

league.
In passing up the cadets for the Sa
lem team the Lincoln school acknowl
edges that it fears the Hill eleven. For
years the Hill team has been classed
with the high schools and has played
with them. For that matter the same
Is true of Columbia university and
Portland academy.
Locally there is a feeling that the
Seattle team Is drawing too fine a line
and that they are taking refuge under
a very weak technicality. It is also
said that it Is another exemplification of
the much touted "Seattle spirit."
SOCCER TEAMS WILL
LINE UP TOMORROW
The same team that has steadily rep
resented Multnomah at soccer since the
club took up that game last September
will be In line at 10:30 tomorrow morn
ing, with the men In their customary
positions, against the Rangers, who
will put on the following strong eleven:
Hutchinson, goalkeeper; C. A. Stew
art and Nunn, fullbacks; McCaf forty,
Coxon and McKay, halfbacks: Kyle and
Dean, right wing; Douglas and Quarter
man, right wing; Stevenson, center.
Some alarm was caused In Multno
mah's ranks when It was heard that
Ned Stevenson, veteran of hundreds of
tough games and a crack player of over
20 years' standing, was to be at center.
Stevenson's age has scarcely begun to
show in his playing and he is always
dangerous with feet or head In front of
goal. Both he and C. A. Stewart helped
the Columbias- win the first city league
championship last year, and both are
out tomorrow for the first time this
season with the Rangers. In addition
the half line of the clubmen's rivals is
unusually strong In McCafferty, Mc
Kay and Ooxon artd the lithe club for
wards will have difficulty threading
thetr way down to Hutchinson.
Klckoff will be at the league baseball
grounds and a large Thanksgiving
morning crowd is expected to see what
soccer material is developing for the
possible Portland United team In one
of the northern leagues next year.

TEAMS III GREAT
SHAPE FOB CAME
Wonderful Human Machines
Ready for Football Game
Tomorrow Afternoon.
.Fit to make the fight of their lives,
both th Multnomah club and Univer
sity of Oregon football teams will line
up on Multnomah field tomorrow after
noon at 2:30 o'clock for their annual
Thanksgiving struggle. Twice In the
dozen years that the games have been
played, the young collegians have won.
New rules nave made marked advan
tages for them. Last year and the year
before the great plaoe kicking of Cap
tain iuoullen turned the tide. Tomor
row Oregon supporters expect Moul
len's trusty to to turn the trick again.
Coach Forbes has had his men tuning
up at Seaside ever since the Agricul
tural college game of last Saturday.
Tomorrow they will be in the best con
dition of the year. That very evident
"fineness" that was noticeable In the
men Saturday has disappeared and they
are now of that normality that comes
wltn good training. The Oregon squad
will arrive from Seaside tonight and
win again put up at the Portland.
Manager Pratt and Captain Stott held
a sutf practice last night, at which the
men appeared in fine condition. After
the practice the lineup for tomorrow
was announced, and the eleven well
trained players who will enter the game
at th start are confident of their abil
ity to trim the students.
It is doubtful If a club team has ever
been brought to such a high state of ef-
riciency ror a inanKSgiving day game.
While the club will make old stvle foot
fall Its chief reliance, It will not adhere
wholly to this method of offense. The
forward pass and trick plays have been
given a thorough test during the past
two months and the club is about as
nifty at pulling them off as any team In
the northwest.
Weather Will 8 Talr.
The weather prediction for tomor
row is fair with northerly winds. This
means much to a Portland football
crowd, especially on Thanksgiving day.
The Multnomah-Oregon game Is the dis
tinct athletic-social event of the season.
All Portland society takes In the game
and tne socially prominent of tne col
lege town are always conspicuous fig
ures at the annual scrimmage.
This year the handsome grandstand
gives plenty of opportunity, fbr a dis
play of dress. The boxes strung along
the front of th grandstand ror nearly
100 yards will no doubt be filled with
fir&v parties.
it was finally decided upon yesterday
to allow Oliver Uutts, who haa been en
gaged as referee, to go - with th Cor
vallls eleven to Seattle for the O. A. C.
Washington game tomqrrow. The Cor
vallis people were particularly anxious
to secure Cutts, and Manager Pratt al
lowed him to go. Instead of Cutts,
Hugh Boyd of Portland has been se
lected as referee for th big game.
It was again announced this morning
that reserve seats tickets would be good
for any gate on Chapman or Twentieth
streets, but those buying grandstand
tickets at the field would have to pur
chase them at the Twentieth street en
