CAN FILL PHILBIN'S SHOES Bidk E Eniltj to St.p Into Posi tion "Mated by Kan Who Bopped Over to Pennsylvania State. LINCOLN HIGH FOOTBALL COACH AND CHIEF; AIDE University of Oregon, Eugene, Or., Sept. 11. After eight days In the wilds surrounding the city of Florence cn the north tank of the Sluslaw river, Coach Hugo Bezdek with his squad of Krldiron candidates arrived In Kusene thia evening prepared and seasoned to take up ttie long foot ball campaign now pending. The trip to Florence served its purpose Inas much an it revealed the fact that Oregon la liable to be minus the serv ices of a veteran back field the old trio, Parsons, Hryant and Malarkey are through with the game for good if prenent statements Issued by each are to be taken as sincere. Bryant arrived in Florence yester day only to stay for an hour of two. He was on his way "down river" whre he has accepted a position with the government on the jetty projects at the mouth of the Sluala. Parsons l.s still in Portland and when last heard from he stated that his chances to return to college were remote. Malarkey will play if he can get thn consent of his parents Hnd a doc tor or two. He has one show in a thousand ti do so. Btidek races Tough Task. Taking It for granted that tho "old timers" have had better days and that thy will not bo seen in action in the season to come, then Coach Bezdek has a mighty job on his hands the whipping together of a backfield which will be as finished as the set now in tlie discards. However, as gloomy as might be the prospect, the Oregon mentor is In no manner discouraged or ready to say that he is beaten, for back of all the disaster there Is hope in the fact that "Shy" Hunt ington, Hosklns, Morfitt, Lyle Blgbee, Montelth and Bob Mnlarkey, plus the possibilities that other candidates, not 7yet reporting, may, be the nucleus : around which Oregon will show stronger than ever before In the posi tions back of thq line. . - Knourh of, the baektrTttfV ftf? tfiV line.

Cawley, a, rangy graduate from the second. team circles last fall, and Gar rett, an end who. may work in it a tackle berth ..this season. , From one of the three the lemon y el low leader ought to find the man he la looking- for. Other line jobs are well taken care of. aUaley Billeted tor End. Blacksmith Cossman, If he shows an well aa he did against the Aggies, will undoubtedly be stationed at cen ter in a regular capacity. Rlsley is booked to an end position if present plans nursed by Coach Bezdek ar fol lowed. "Zelp" Snyder, a veteran of sopho more rating, is again in college and looking better than ever. Snyder will have little difficulty In holding his place. Although Sam Cook has been . silent as to his exact whereabouts, it is known that he will again register at Oregon; Cook Is somewhere in the woods of Idaho serving as a fire warden and Is looked to make Eugene " early In the coming weeK. Jifhnny Beckett, tired of harvest ing, has sent word ' to expect him at college tomorrow or Monday. Beckett Is Still the best bet that Bezdek has In the kicking department and the assurance that ha would reenter col lege was mighty 'good news to the training corps. Oscar Weist, for two ceasonfl a letter man In a wing berth Is not expected to return to this state Weist lives In Kansas City and has written that he hardly expected to be buck. To help out on the ends the Oregon squad will have the services of Mitchell, Tegert, Rlsley, now In camp, and other candidates who will be placed on the extremities If Bezdek deems them fit. "Cholly" Johns a freshman from Portland may be shifted to an out- side position and given a thorough trial; Johns is a big youngster and has possibilities. In the same clasB with Johns is Hosklns, of Bcho. This freshman possesses a world of ambi tion, a strong frame and enough en thuslasm to learn and play the game as he Is coached. Hosklns is green more than green, but he looks all to the good. Tea, But Who Shot Xt? Bill Hayward. Captain Cornell and "TlckT Malarkey arrived In Kugene last evening, one day ahead of their squad members, while here BUI took out enough time to tell various exper iences or the camp and thinks the biggest feat of all was the deer that be, Besdek and a guide bagged on a hunting trip last Tuesday. "The boys had lots of venison after that trip," stated the crack coach of track teams. "The stay at Sluslaw was a success," he added, "and I think . iiiw uu,, are in, tnose who made it." Captain Cornell, when Interviewed this afternoon said: "There is no use talking, our stock Is coming up. I just heard that Beck- ett WOld be here and have everv rea. son to believe that Cook will be pres ent In .addition Blgbee, Montelth and Huntington are already on the Job. Prospects look a whole lot better than they did, but we have an awful fight ahead of us." Just two weeks from today, Besdek's favorite will usher in the season against' the Multnomah club team of Portland a the local lot. This is the rinst trip that ' the clubmen have signed for In Kugene In some 15 years interest is being centered ""TV I s 4 RUNYON-SAYS FIGHT .FOLLOWERS HOWLED E 0 SOM FIGHTING Mike; and -Packy Did Nothing : to Offend Most Effeminate of 'Spectators.

Ah the routine board now reads, It is thought that scrimmage will be. In order by the week's end. Saturday a game will be played be tween scrubs and the first selection. Coach Bezdek sums up the situation as follows: "With my old backs ap parently not in harness It means work' to replace them. However, the harder the fight, the better 1 like It," and the interview was closed.

"The University of California .play ers have a hard row to hoe If they plan to win any of their games this fall Thprf Is a he bunch nut for the team but the men are nearly all Inexperienced in the American game. The team as it comes onto the field looks like an Invading army with the coaches as the advance guard." Thi u : u t Vi o Rlfltpmpnt nf W CZ Schlffer, of Portland, a University of PORTLAND GIRL SWMS OSWEGO I Miss Bergljot Hovde. Here is a new record for the fair natators to shoot at. It was made In Oswes-o lake Labor day by Miss Bergl jot Hovde, a 19-year-old Norwegian girl. She swam the length of the lake, some three miles. In 2 hours and 45 minutes, which is quite a record In still water for a woman. Miss Hovde, Who was born at Hamar. Norway, and who has made her home In Portland for three years, has been swimming since she was a mere child She did not try to establish a record in time, but was merely trying to swim the lengtn or the lake. Miss novae made her start at 1 o'clock, and did not stop to rest until she had finished the distance. She used the side, breast and back stroke. She thinks she can make better time if she attempts to swim the lake again. The women who took part In the recent three-mile Marathon Jn the Willamette finished, around two hours, but they bad the advantage of swimming with the current.". Accompanying Miss Hovde in a row boat , were her sister and Mrs. B. J. Slaght, of. Cleveland, Ohio, who has been summering at Oswego Lake. Washington student, who returned from California yesterday. "The men seem to have a lot of tronble in .handling the ball, which i. smaller than the ball used in Rug by. They are very strong, -however, In the kicking etid ' of the game and It is not an uncoramom sight to ee a fifty yard pdnt or drop kick. "Owing to the fact that the fraah- men are not allowed to play, on the varsity teams, there is a large turn out for the first year eleven. There are about 11 freshmen team's out every night and about 12 varsity teams. The men are very fst but small and will have a bard time standing up with the heavy -team of the University of "Washington. "Gilo Shea, former Columbia -university prep Bchool star, is making a good fight for the quarter back posi tion on the first year team since he is one of the very few men turning out that has had any experlen.e in the American game." "M'S" FOOTBALL PLAYERS TO KICK PIQSKIN AROUND Huskies- Getting Into Shape for-First Game With : Oregon, Hard scrimmage Is on the pro gram for the Multnomah club foot ball players in their practice today. Captain Rupert will ' put the en tire squad through about 90 min utes of work at rassing, bucking the line and printing-. The full squad is expected out for the first time .today. A number of new men are .also expected to report. Halfback Oilman, who played on the St. Thomas. Minn., team the same time that Patsy O'Rourke did, will report to Rupert for the first time today. Chuck Taylor and Walter Keck, two of last season's players, will also make their initial appear ance of the season. The "Winged M." captain is much pleased with the showing made by his players during the two night practices held last week. On Tues day only a few players reported, but on Thursday night 14 of them answered the call. Good punters will be plentiful again this 'season. Besides the old favorite, Walter Keck, their Is Witt, the Min neapolis high school phenom, who al though light, makes an average of 60 yards In his practice kicks. Oilman also punts very well. The club team will average out 185 pounds this season. This will be about 15 pounds Jighter than last year. Cap tain Rupert has taken off a number of pounds already and when the sea son opens against the University of Oregon, September 25, he expects to be In the best shape possible in order to give the best service to his teammates. The players are taking their prac tice seriously this season, as they are anxious to win the Pacific Coast championship, which will be decided In San Franeisco in November.

Along about the sixth round of the exhibition between Packey McFarland of Chicago and Mike Gibbons of St. Paul down at Brighton Beach tonight, a loud voice rose from a ringside seat and let forth a roar that reverberated up and back and far out over the blg pest crowd that ever saw a fistic event in America, "Gents," said the man, hoarsely, "this is a grand picture show but I came to see a fight." And from the murmur that respond ed to his cry it was apparent that many others present echoed these sen timents. The McFarland-Gibbons affair may have been a fair boxing exhibition and certainly It contained nothing that i could offf;rld the finer feelings of any of the thousands of women present, but as a fight it was not much. It was a ten round, no decision affair and o,deifstt)n would be about correct if a decision- must. given.a draw Is not fnftT(Hher -man. Mq. Damage to Either. They were both on their feet and fighting at the finish. There had been I no damage inflicted on either side and ' neither man had, a distinctive advan tace at any stage of the conflict. Perhaps McFarland should have the decision, for the showing that Mike Gibbons made as compared to his pre vious form, especially when it is con sidered that the Chicagoan was doing a comeback after two years' retire ment, was boxing a man reputed to bo one of the greatest fighters in the world and for the reason that Mike should have done better, but all things considered it was an even proposition. It was in many ways a big disappoint ment, an long as it Is remembered by the sporting world there will undoubt edly be many who will claim that It was "one of those things," as matches made with a previous understanding as to the result are called by sporting men, but there is no way of proving it. The charge has been openly made by a recognized authority for weeks past that the men would not try tonight, and there has even been a rumor around to the effect that McFarland had made Gibbons put up a cash de posit with a mutual friend in Chicago to guarantee against a knockout, but here again is something that cannot be substantiated. ' Oibbons Weeded Knockout. There are always rumors of this kind going around before a big match and perhaps the only result that would have prevented criticism of the affair tonight would have been a knockout by Gibbons. Certainly a knockout by McFarland would have been looked at askance and it may be the men were trying desperately. Packey Has a Shade. The complaints of the crowd be came more pronounced as the men v?ent through the early stages of the fifth. In that round, however, Gibbons let loose a left that looked to be about the hardest punch that had been started but It did no daman. The old rip and pash of the St. Paul man was en tirely missing. Mike has fought some corking fights around New York and some bad ones, but up to the fifth he showed none of the class that he In dubitably possesses when he Is truing. I The same might be said of McFarland. Never a hard puncher or knocker-out, j he has nevertheless displayed much i more form than he displayed in the early rounds tonight. McFarland had a Bhade in the fifth, however, because he did most of the leading. It was about the first round that could reasonably be given to either man. In the sixth McFarland hit Gibbons a little low. but apologized. There was u close exchange in McFarland's cor ner, but the blows that landed fell on elbows. Mike missed badly In this round, but he"opened an old cut under his right eye. McTarland Is "Weary, In the seventh blood showed over Gibbons' left eye and trickled down bis nose. He had evidently been butted. Whenever they clinched the referee wiped the blood off of Packey's shoul ders. Packed seemed a bit weary from the exertion and it was Mike's round. There seemed to be more drive to his punches during this session than before. In the eighth Gibbons missed with both hands. In fact, the story would have to be a narrative of misses If an attempt were made to detail every lead. Blows with which Gibbons has knocked, men .cold from a distance of six Inches, fell .without apparent weight upoif 'Packey'shead.
