The last time that Providence won a pennant Was In 1906, when Jack Dunn piloted the Grays to the championship Therefore It may be easily seen why Carl Is on of the prominent citizens of the Jthode Island metropolis. Be siaes naving a wonderful year as a pitcher, he was In the frame almost every day that he wasn't hurling, as an outfielder. His record of wijro assumed such proportions, and his basehits fell so frequently that the Boston; Red Sox came along and purchased him. lUght after Boston announced the purrhase of Patrick, along comes our old rrlend and fellow citizen, Fielder A. Jones, the St. Iuls Fed. helmsmen. nl makes Pat an offer to turn outlaw, Pat Ignored It, and then K. A. comei a-roM with an even better offer. That, too. whs turned down. He says he wilt sign up with the Boston Red Sox next spring. In this Mays shows some wlxdom. Boston would have won the American league pennant In a walk this yar had the Red Pox been able to get m good start. Nest year well it look pretty much as if Fenwiek park, tb5 home of Carrlgan,. Speaker, Wood, fjYfgg, et at, would stage a portion of the world series games in 1915. Pat will be of that party.

Having been literally walked over by the Walla Walla high school eleven In the last scrimmage practice before the Whitman-Oregon game In Eugene Saturday, the. Missionary squad is in the depths today. I,ast night the Whitman "scrubs" went through the Misslohary lino and spilled plays at regular In tervals and when the high school team took the field the college men made a poor showing and were scored against several times through fumbling and mlxups on signals. : "it sure is tne worst mess I ever ' University of Idaho, Moscow. Idaho, Oct. 7. Regular scrimmage practice has " been started by Coach Griffith, and during he next couple of weeks' scrimmages; with particular attention w orrensive work, will be made a heavy part of the practice schedule. A quad of 35; men is on the field every afternoon, and the competition for po sitions on the first team is more lively than It has been before for many years. A novel feature of the football drill this fall is what Coach Griffith terms a "football school." Regular-classes are held three even lng each week, the w6rk including drill on rules, penalties, signals and ,lndi viaual blackboard work in drawing plays that are used -on the practice field. Coach Griffith declares that In cases .where two men are almost at a balance on the practice field the one who excels In the class work will get the position on the team. Although the squad as a whole. Is considerably lighter than last season's squad, the team that is likely to go into the first conference game will be of about the same weight as last year's aggregation. The line will average 175 pounds, at the least, while the back field is likely to go at about 167. Every position is being hotly contested. and Griffith expects to have the best bench aggregation that the university has ever had. For the end positions' the rivalry. Is especially keen, Gerlough, Dingle and DeWald, last season's veterans, having a hard fight for their Jobs with Ham ilton, a Pullman, Wash., high school star; Evans, a freshman .from Ameri can Falls, and Martin, a first year man from Oaksdaie. Wash. The guard positions will likely lie bestween Buffington, Klpp, Keane and jonnstone, last year's sideliners. Phil lips and Groniger are likely to hold their jobs at tackle, although Pearson, a Moscow high school star. Hart, freshman from Boise, and R. Gerlough and W vile, two of last year's subs, are showing up well. Hayes looks best at present for his old job at center. Pur dy will have a hard run for quarter. with Jardine, last season's sub quarter. The baokfield is full of contestants. and Coach Griffith could easily pick a couple of full sets of backs. Burns, Brown and Ross, last year's veterans. are doing good work, but are being rushed for their positions by Lemmas. son, Stookey, Williams and Sage, all freshmen. . Phillips Is doing the best work at punting that he has ever done thi early in the season, and Coach Griffith expects him to rank among the best hooters lni the conference before the end of the season. saw." said Captain Clark Slover fol lowing the scrimmage. "I can't see our way out. This Is not bear talk It's the truth. Berney, Whitmans big tackle, will not be able to play against Oregon owing to an injured knee and Captai Slover was in suit last night for the first time In a week. IH SCHOOL TEAMS HAVE PICKETS ON JOB TO KEEP SPIES AWAY oaches Very Careful to Pre vent Enemy Getting Idea of Their Strength, OLUMBIA BONES SUFFER Malarkey and Sarsfleld Take to Hos pital;- Opening Game of Season Flayed This Afternoon. Although the opening game of the 1914 Interscholastie league gridiron. season was played this afternoon be tween the Washington high school team and the Columbia university eleven, none of the team coaches had definitely decided upon his lineups for the coming season. Some of the coaches have their teams made irp In their own minds, btu are withholding their lineups. The coaches have been very careful this season to see that no spies are around when they are sending their squads through the daily signal scrim. mages. All teams this season were handicapped at the start, and as a re sult the coaches were slow in getting their squads ready for scrimmage practice. Coach Callicrate of the Columbia university team is the only coach who has lost any players by accidents. Two of Callicrate' s best players Malarkey, a backfield man. and Sarsfleld. a guard, are suffering from Injuries, and it is doubtful whether they will be able to play during the season. Sarsfleld has a broken hip bone, and Malarkey dislocated his shoulder dur ing a scrimmage early in the week. Last season Malarkey did not get into the games until late in the season on account of a sprained ankle. A couple of members of the Lincoln team are limping from minor Injuries, as the result of Saturday's battle against the Astoria hign eleven, and a few members of the other teams are suffering from minor injuries as the result of hard practice sessions the coaches have been putting them through. One of the surprises of the coming season will be the Hill Military Acad emy eleven. Coach Graham is round lng his players into great shape, and although they will be very light, he expects them to make a strong show ing, as they are pretty fast. Coach Borleske is coaching his players on forward pass and open plays this sea son. His backfield players are very light. The Jefferson eleven is one which will bear watching during the strug gle for supremacy In the scholastic ranks. Coach Jamison has a likely looking bunch of players turning out each night, and when quarter back Irvine returns to the game his team will improve a great deal. Irvine has not been out for practice for two weeks on account of an abcess. Jefferson's lineup ror tne season will be selected from the following:: Ends Calvin, Wolf er, Butler. Tackles Curry, Kennedy. Guards Reed, Bates, Lewis send Kel logg. : . . ,.. .. . Centers Maurice, Giebisch. Quarterbacks Irvine. Sax. : Half s Nelson, Lodell. MJcLoughlln and Wilcox, ; Full Beach. The Hill Academy baa a strong back- field lineup In Christian, Jones, Derby shire and Mascot. The line baa also been strengthened by the addition of Mitchell and Scott to the line. Captain Graham, who played in the backfield last season, will be on the line tnis year. Coach Huriburt of the Portland Academy team is not very enthusiastic over his 1914 lineup, but is hopeful. His squad is a little bit lighter than last season, but he hopes to male a good showing. He has several new players, who are doing great prelimi nary work. Coach arl of the wasntngxon nign team Is uo against a harder proposi tion than any coach. Earl has to build practically an entirely new eleven. Only two of his last season's regulars. Captain Walker and Normandln, returning. The Washington squad this season is a large and husky one, and it is expected that Karl will have no trouble in rounding out a capable eleven. Bennett, an end, and Sharp, a full back, are showing good form with the Columbia team. These players are out of town students, and come to Colum bia With a good reputation. Callicrate is depending on a number of second string and junior players this year. On the whole, every team In the league will be lighter than during the 1913 season. Washington and Lincoln teams wiU be the heaviest in the league this year. Or and, Mildred Clemens, 15, from Portland. Or. They have, both been interested In rowing and other sports for women, anil together have done a great deal to promote the interests of athletics among the fair sex on the campus. - The crew will compete m the Colum bus Day regatta on Lake Merrlt. -rowing against the Mills College crew, and the winning' crew will then be matched with the winning high school crew of the same meet. The women on this crew will be awarded middies and "Cs. They have been training faith fully for some time, and have, every hope of crossing the finish line some lengths ahead of their competitors. -. Interest has been Injected Into the men's varsity training by the chang ing of th" training waters from the nearly inaccessible . Oakland Estuary to Lake Merrlt. and the purchase of a new coaching launch. The men are out early this year, and hundreds of peo ple line the banks or paddle about In canoes to watch the blue and gold shells. California has never in recent years made a good showing in . crew against Stanford and the University of Washington,, but Is going at it this dent body behind her, and it will be a great race when Washington , comes down here.
