His record of wijro assumed such

frequently that the Boston; Red Sox

Walla Walla, Wash., Oct. 7. 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. :

' 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.

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.
