taln Is Blowl.y but surely descending'
on the football season of 1313. In an
' other week the wearers of the dusky-
hucd moleskin Will be biy packing
away their autumn toga In camphor and
gathering around 4n email groups on
their respective campases discussing
tha outlook of tha material for next
- season.
' Football heroes' who have ' ocupled
the lime light of popular interest dur
ing the past eason will, like true war
riors of history, find themselves oc
cupying remote- pedestals In the long
corridors. In the Hall of Football Fame.
The stars who shoot into 'the sky of
popularity with meteoric effect because
of their sensational playing, will find
- that their glory Is short-lived, that the
fall la almost as swift as the ascent
and tnat tho heroes of today become
only the warriors of yesterday.
The surprises that have been so
abundant during the past season in re
epect to the strength displayed by many
of the minor teams will go down In
history as one of tho most prominent
features of the most uncertain season
In the history of the' game.
Champion Contest Coming; Up.
That these factors of uncertainty will
play an important . part Jn all of the
next Saturday's contests is what will
Increase the Interest of all followers
of the popular college game.
The east as well as the wes( Is to
have, a championship contest on Sat
. urday. Wisconsin and Chicago, at Chi
cago, will share the spotlight with Har
vard and Tale, at Cambridge. The final
outcome of each of these contests will
have a direct bearing on the awarding
of the premier honors of the season tn
their respective sections.
In the annual struggle" between
"Johnny" Harvard and "Ell" Yale sched
uled , to be fought ln the Cambridge
Stadium the followers of the game In
the east will have a battle that should
In every sense of the word prove a
memorable affair.
The tremendous strength of the Crlm
son machine will find in the fighting
bulldog a worthy opponent ana one that
Will no doubt' prove very troublesome.
Team Is Uncertain.
The New Haven team to date is more
or less of uncertain strength. The early
season showing has perplexed the score
Or more of coaches that have flocked
during the past week to her aid. That
Yale will be a greatly improved ma
chine la the prediction of every one who
has watched the New Haven men in
their final preparations.
.The switching of Captain Ketcham
from guard to end has added consider
ably to the strength of the team. In
Saturday's contest the New Haven lead
er Is sure to prove the sensation of
the year, at the extremity position
His great speed In getting down the
field under kicks is what 1 going to
prove an advantage that Haughton's
chargers .will have to overcome.
At the other extremity,- Avery and
' Brand are players that are far above
the average m ability; they only' lack a
little of that dash and fight that char
acterizes their leader.
In Captain Storer, O'Brien, Coolidge
and Dana, the Crimson wearers have a
quartet that would do justice to any
team. They possess abundance of speed,
have good . heads, are deadly tacklers
and In all-around ability closely rival
their opponents.
Tackles To Show Fight.
ATThe tackle positions the real strug
gle of the contest is sure to take place.
TTalbott, Madden, and Pendleton, the
Blue team's forwards, are of a type
a great deal similar ' to Hitchcock,
Oilman, and Curtlss, their opponents.
They are all fast, hard chargers, who
go through and diagnose a play almost
as soon , as It Rets under way.
In the center of the line the Cam
bridge aggregation appears to have a
"light advantage over their New Haven
rivals. In Cowen Trumbull and Pen
nock, they' have a. trio that bear the
earmarks of -all-Amerlcun men. Witii
abundance of experience and weight,
they have acquired the knack of get
ting the Jump" on the ball and to date
.have out-played every man that they
have faced. Caldwell, Warren, Cooney
and Maunsing arc all big husky line-,
men but for some reason or other seem
to be a. trifle alow, to start the charge
on the ball. .
In the back field the real strength
of the Crimson team la most apparent.
In Brlckley Hardwlck,, Maiian, Brad
lee end Logan, Houghton has a squad
of backs that no other coach can boast
of; in fact, seldom, If ever before, have
backs of so high a class been brought
together, In a single aggregation.

of such magnitude that any team pos
sessing one of them would be strength

THANKSGIVING: DAY
Several ( Changes in Lineup
Planned- by - Manager Stott
to Meet -Traditional ' Rivals,
CONVILLE SHIFTED TO
. OLD COLLEGE POSITION
Patsy O'Rourker Despite His
Busted Proboscis,. Will Be
Back in Game, " .
Several changes will be made In the
lineup of the Multnomah club football
team before tho annual Thanksgiving
day struggla-with-the University of Ore
gon players. -After seeing some of his
players perform in the backfleld in prac
tice scrimmages. Manager Stott an
nounced that' he. would shift his entire
backfleld and some of the line players.
In the game against the Vancouver
Barracks'' team next Saturday afternoon,
Manager Stott' will 'start the following
players In' the backfleld: Conville, full;
Keck,, left half; Francis, right half and
Rodea, quarter. If this quartet' of play,
eis work in good style against tho sol
diers they . will -be "used against tha
lemon and yellow team an Turkey day,
Conville is very anxious to get in the
backfield lineup. In his college career.
Conville played fullback for the Purdue
university. He has been used In prac
tice in the fullback position, but has
never had a chance to play In a game
at that position. Keck can play a half
back position equally as well as full
back. Francis, the star Willamette unl
vcrslty player, will be shifted from right
end to right half in place of McRae.
In practice last Sunduy morning, he sur
prised his team mates by his hard and
fast running, and convinced Manager
Stott that he would make a good man
behind the line.
If anything should happen to either of
his halves, Stott could rely on "Truck
Strlebig, whom he will play at left end
a part of the Oregon game, and McRae
to fill the position. Tho new lineup will
give tho club team a stronger offensive
team.
Although Ted Lndlam announced that
he would play no more, It is tlkely that
he will be in a suit against the Oregon
players. This will give the club plenty
of end material. Jack Hickson, a form
cr Oregon wing, will likely start the
game at left end. Pixley, thp Missis
sippl end, may get a chance In the
game Saturday,
The tackle positions will be filled by
O'Rourke and Bailey. O'Roufke, after
having his nose Injured In the .Washing.
ton state college game, announced that
he would quit the field, but he will be
In tho lineup against Oregon. Phil
brook and Rupert will play the guard
positions, and Cherry will take care of
center. George Carlson, who was in
jured in the first Multnomah game of
the season, will likely be In a suit again
by Thanksgiving day.
Manager Plowden Stott Is expecting a
real hard battle from the varsity this
season and plans to work his charges
as much as possible during tho corn
Ing week. Tho game-against the-sol
diers will be a strength testing one.
With Convillo In the backfield, the
Winged M team will have three good
punters, Keck and Strlebig being the
other booters. Strlebig showed class in
making place kicks In the practice game
against the rookies a week ago.
Chester Chadbourne, ftlcOrcdlo's cen
ter fielder, is wanted by the Montreal
team of the International league, ac
cording to the IjOs Angeles Examiner.
Mac will let Chad go in a hurry, maybe.
Owner Maler of the Venice team Is
trying to get Manager McOraw of the
New York Giants to use the Venice
team of the Coast league as a farm for
his castoffs.
Happy Hogan hopes to secure Pitcher
Frank Arrellnnes of the Sacramento
team. A report has been printed that
Carlisle will be traded for Arrellanes.
Jimmy Lewis, "Pep" Young, Relt
meyer, Cheek and several other members
of the Bacramento team will be sold,
released or traded by Manager Wolver
ton before the start -of the 191S season.
Lewis and Swain will likely land at
Vancouver, B. C.
Hughey Miller, the former Sacramento
first baseman, wants a position on Hap
py Hogan's team. Miller played In the
International league last season.
Brown of Philadelphia and En gel of
Washington are two twlrlers who were
chased from the greatest number of
games during the 1913 American league
season. Twenty-six times these two
gunners started games only to be taken
out. Bobby t-room was chased 19 times.
Laverenz was chased 13 times, and Vean
Gregg 12. Chief Bender Was palled out
of the box 11 times. ,
cngo. should furnish some sensational
open style football. Stage's charges
.nave always ueen cnaracccrizea by a
wonderful offense, which eastern teams
have not, been able to master.
ln Kckersall as well as a score of
other Maroon players Stags has de
veloped players who have always re
vealed the oeneatlonal thing at the right
time. - ,
in Saturday's contest . the Budger
will be called upon to show something
more than they did in thenr so-called
practice game against Coach Macklln's
Michigan "Aggies" if they expect to
prove troublesome to the Maroons.
Carlisle-Syracuse, at Syracuse, will
give those not fortunate enough to se
cure tickets for. the Harvard-Yale con
test an opportunity to witness some
high class football. 1
Coach Warner's Redskins will, in Syr
acuse, meet 'a rival that has had a
rather discouraging season.. After being
beaten- by Prlaceton they suffered an
overwhelming defeat at the hands of
"hurry up" Yost's Wolyerlnes. Never
theless, they are primed for the Redmen
and the contest should prove one . In
collegians. . ;.
Minnesota-Tlllnors at Urhnna, Indiana
Purdue at Bloomtngton, , Nebrasa-Iowa
at' Lipcpln, .Missouri-Kansas at Colum
bia, well as the Notre Same-Chrls-tlan

Garl Morris Shows Splendid
'Nerve in Coming Right s
Back for More,
By W. W. Naughton.
San Francisco, Nov. 15. If the white
hopes would only display a little of
the get-together spirit It would not
take- long to determine tho quetlon of
supremacy so far as the pal0 face
heavyweights are concerned.' .
Tho family of big fellows has 'cer
tainly dwindled.. Jim Flynn, who as a
trial horse was responsible for the
wreckage of many championship's as
pirations, has slowed up and Is no long
er a terror to rising young heavies.
Al. Palzer, through 111 health main
ly, has been transformed from a fire
eater into a chopping block.
Jess WlHard, who held out promise
In his early career, has developed Into
an uncertain quantity. He performs
spasmodically. He knows considerable
about the game but his knowledge ls
nt assembled and It looks as If it never
will be. The trouble Is that his think
ing apparatus does not work smoothly
and bis fighting machinery stops when
least expected.
These Are Flonnderers.
The men still floundering along to
ward the goal are Gunboat Smith, Frank
Moran, Arthur Pel key, and Carl Mor
ris. On work actually done. Gunboat
Smith is the flower of a job-lot flock.
He possesses an asnet which counts
above all else In fighting towlt: a
punch and he has used It to advantage
in many recent fights.
He has reached a stage where he can
insist on having a voice in the settle
ment -of the world's heavyweight
championship argument. He .should see
to it that he docs not lose caste through
trying to sidestep men.
At this date a match between Gnn-
boat Smith and Arthur Pelkey seems
imminent. Jim Coffrotk of San Fran
cisco has the arrangements for the fight
in hand and he is trying- to' figure
out, a date that will be suitable to both
men. At present. It looks as ,lf the bout
will taKe piuce in Ban iTancisco on
New Year's day. "
Of Pelkey's fighting past, extremely
little is known. He gained prominence
through one of the most unfortunate
incidents known to ring sport and is
one champion who cannot point wit'.i
pride to tho circumstance under which
he was crowned.
Tackling Best In Bight.
The coming bout will be his first
since the lamentable affair at Calgary
and to his credit be it said that he
is making no bones about tackling the
most dangerous mun in sight. A champ
ionship Is a championship no matter
under what conditions it Is acquired and
it was in Pelkey's power to select his
own opponents for a while as champ
ions of lighter weight have been doing
right along.
Instead he has elected to go against
Gunboat Smith, who would doubtless
have been the heavyweight chosen for
him if the matter had been left to a
populate vote.
It is well to remember this if Pelkey
will go on with the bout with hardhit
ting Gunboat. There is so much shilly
shallylng with your champions and
near champions nowadays, that a man
does the sportsmanslike thing is worthy
of a kind thought.
Frank Moran, who Is abroad at pres
ent beguiling himself with the belief
that ho is going to get a crack at Jack
Johnson. Is a hard man to size up. There
was astonishment in San Francisco
when the news came over the wires that
he had knocked out Al Palzer. The local
fight followers have seen Moran in
action on many occasions and had nbout
concluded that they knew everything
he was capable of.
Falser Is Now a Mark.
'Tie must have Improved.", wes a
common remark when the result Gf the
go with Palzer was made known. Now
that It has been made to appear that
Palzer has become a mark for every
new heavyweight recruit, doubt Is ex
pressed as to whether Mornn lias made
any gain as a boxer. He will bo watched
from this end and if he gives evidence
of the possession of class, he will he
looked upon as a -fellow who. was fl-
fnally licked Into shape rather than one
who performed brilliantly rrom the
beginning.
Carl Morris name at present is on
the lips of thousands nf sportsmen
who have never eeen him in action.
They have taken their cue from the
New York critics and they have arrived
at the conclusion that the big Okla-
homan is deserving of another bout
with Gunboat Smith.
Smith, himself must recognise that
the clamor for a return match has he
come general. He may claim that his
appointment with Arthur Pelkey should
take precedence but ff .ho wins from Ar
thur he will be given no peace until
he has settled with tho man from 8a
pulpa. .
Morris Certainly Game.
Whatever else Morris may be, he is
very gam and enduring. The writer
saw him embroiled with Jlth Flynn in
"The Garden" and Is free to confess that
it has seldom been his lot to sec a man
put up with such a terrible) beating
without showing signs of discourage
ment. Hound after round th. stout
hearted novice strode to the firing llhe
and accepted punishment from which
more seasoned men mlght'have flinched.
Pluck and powers of assimilation are
merely basic qualities for a fighter, of
course, - but Morris had them to begin
with and if he has enriched his knowl
edge of ring craft the mere fact of
Gunboat Smith being unwilling to tackle
him will not keep him In the back
ground. HUNT CLUB TO HOLD .
