Salem. Or. Nov. 20. Frank Sarff,
center of the Salem football team, to
day confessed to the high school' fac
ulty that be was 22 years old. Sarff,
In enrolling In the high school this
year, gave his age as 20 and was ac
cordingly allowed to play. The rules
say no one over 21 years to eligible.
. SArf f will be allowed to play Colum
bia collet Thanksgiving day, as the
high school rules will not apply to 'hat
gome.
Principal Nelson, of the high school
fatuity, stated that he did not think
tl.at the fact that Sarff was over 21
years would Invalidate the victories
won by Salem this season, which in
cluded the championship of the Wil
lamette valley. He believed that the
.'net that the school authorities can
aliow that they knew nothing, of the
fraud practiced by Sarff would be ef
fective In retailing for the school Its
victories.
"If the school authorities had con
cealed anything It would be different."
said Nelson. "We acted In good faith,
and Sarff is the only person in the
school who knew he was over zl, so
fur as We know."
The board of control of the Oregon
high school association wljl consider
tho situation arising over Barff's de
ception at an early date.
Nelson said that a letter from the
principal of the Albany high school did
not Indicate that Albany would file a
protest with the high school associa
tion board of control, as had been reported.

Arcadia club will attempt to uphold
Us honor against the Llnnton case.

very interesting contest Is expected
on board one in the Chamber pj Com
merce Team "B" match, when Isaac
Sweet, the 42 centimeter gun of the

Big Games Scheduled
In 'Big 9' Conference
Chicago, Nov. 20. (U. P.) Football
dopesters cat wary eyes at the Illinois-Chicago
and Minnesota-Wisconsin
fames today, and although ths IUinl
and Gophers are doped to win on form,
they refused to maJce predictions. The
present season has been full of so
many upsets that experts decline to
take chances.
On straight form, however, the pres
ent tie between Minnesota and Illinois
for the "big nine" championship is
due to continue, for - both teams are
figured to win their games today. But
If both Chicago .and Wisconsin win,
ths situation will be a mile up In the
air. A vctory for the Maroons and
Gophers would give the latter the best
claims to the title, because of their
record for the season.
Today's contests will draw ths cur
tain over the football race In the mld-
die west.
