THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND, MONDAY' EVENING, NOVR i m up ..liilE .MS m Geary Lands Games for 1914 and 1915 and Will Bring Washington to City Next November; Varsity Ahead. : ' University of Oregon, Eugene, Nov. 5. A welcome surprise wag epruns upon the campus today by Graduate Manager Geary when be mJ known the fact that he had a few days ago, (signed a contract with the Multnomah club, for two additional years of foot ball in Portland upon - Thanksgiving Thia tnura that ureKPn win day. in the years play the Portland team 1913.1914 and 1915. - . The contract was signed when it De came known that the Agricultural coU leg would not accept any terms other than which required the breaking of Oregon's contract with the Multnomah club for next year. Although the Ore son students were willing to do all In their iwwer to restore football relations with O. A. C, it was with great reluct anew ; that they were willing to re linquish the traditional Thanksgiving uy game with Multnomah, even for the sake of peace relations,, Geary has also signed a contract with tha University Of Washington for a tone year's game in Portland. The date tin not been set definitely, but It will probably e the second Saturday in November, 1911. It Is the plan nere. ftur to hold all of the Oregon-Wash ington games in Portland, because of the great distance between the col leges. The contract calls , tor an otiai-f division of the aato receipta Each team pays its own expenses. For the usa of the field, the Multnomah club 'will be paid 25 par cent of the rate receipts, although the maximum Is $1500. It Optimal Proposition. Tha"' Oreson-Multnomah club addi tional Thanksgiving contract calls for an ODtional proposition. The net re reipU shall be divided equally after Multnomah has been allowed 25 per nt for the use of the field, -if Oro- enn Bf-ont liuO toward team expenses. Jf Oregon pays its own expenses, Mint liomah sliajl .receive 85 per. cent . field rental but with a maximum or jiooo, A very large crowd would make the : latter stipulation more advantageous to the Oregon team, which has only a short time specified in which to select its choice of the propositions. Not only did the victory over O. A C, Saturday at Albany, put Oregon's football reputation upon a sounder basis, but it also placed its financial landing cpon a firm platform, Had it not been for this game, Oregon's unfavorably arranged schedule would - have left the team decidedly in the liole. After the playing tf the Mult Human Thursday, it will be fSOO or $800 (o the good. The Oregon-O. A. C. game netted Oregon about $1800, according to Manager Geary. The Multnomah game should return about $1200. Ore gon cleared $600 on the Washington tame, and r $60 Upon tha Willamette game in Eugene, However, the Whit man and W. 3. C. games cost about $250 more than the guarantees. This leaves a total of $3400, The expens are heavy.. Coaching cost $2000; equip, ment $600; sweaters $100; training ta. ble $100; and scouting, that is, watch ing the work of other teams, - $200. These items total $$000. The balance; , $400 is conservatively correct, although the items are given in. round numbers, .: and part of them are estimated. The , showing is very creditable to Manager Geary, who is making a thorough success of the graduate coach ing system.. Geary, by taking advant age of every favorable wind, was verv , largely responsible for the bringing to gether of the Oregon and O. A. C. teams this year. Time and again he seemed to nare nearly accomplished tils purpose. - Ana lor the final agreement, coming .ner an nope nad been given up, the ; Students credit Geary to a large extent. ueary not only manages the football nd of the student activities, but i at .the same time manipulating the af- fairs of the glee club, the debating feams, basketball, track athletics and all of the sports and. activities. rami mm III F0R1T DHL Bill Sweeney of Portland Was Third hv Senior Big League Thsi Season.
