FOUR SCHOOLS ALL POSITIONS ALL-STAR IS There Were No Stars' of Pur est Ray in Interscholastic League This Season. , E. MURPHY STANDS OUT Columbia Quarterback Played Gam and Used Superior Head work. aric By George. Hertz. .kicking an all-star football team from the ranks of the Interscholastic league this season la no easy task. There were but a few real stars In the lineups of the various teams this season and a whole mFs of mediocre ftars. who at times played brilliant football. The brilliant and dashing players of the pant wen: missing, with the possible exception of one or two I'layers, who really playfl wonderful football. (Surprises and upsets were plentiful flurlnj,' tlie season. The failure of the Washington hlKii school eleven, con sidered a. touchdown better than any learn In the league, to beat the Lin coln hlKh school team was the biggest Mirprlse of the season. Jefferson's poor showing In the final two games of the season cuused no end of com ment. With the material, the Blue and Gold eiiuad had It was almost cer tain that they would battle Columbia and Washington to a standstill, but .-.omelhing was missing. Murphy Season's Sclatillant. I'ugene Murphy of the Columbia university was the star of the season without 'a doubt. His great headwork afU-r he had replaced Captain Jlo Kcnna st quarterback was a revela tion to the followers of the game. He lihowed good Judgment In the three frames which he played. Besides the btulri work, he has speed find strength and l an accurate forward passer. "Spud'' Normandln, the big quarter hack of the Washington high team, ran Murphy a hard race for the hon ors. Normandln directed the heavy east slilers to a nicety, although at times his Judgment did not seem to be the best. Murphy's work was a 1'ttle moro brilllunt than that of Nor inaiuiln because the Columbians used an open attack against their oppo nents. Murphy, too, was a little faster than Normandln. There was a dearth of good half backs this season, none of them show ing up with Jack Day, "Tick" Malar Uty. Johnny Parsons, George Nixon end a few others of the older days. Several of the players showed up In brilliant form during the first part of the season, while others were only flashes in the pun. Moe Sax, the leader of the Jefferson team, played great ball at the start of the sched ule, but his work fell off as the season reared Its end. Sax was captain of the team besides being -burdened with calling signals and running with the ball. Strowbridge's Toe Educated. Ed Strowbridge of Washington played hie visual game throughout the stason. It wan nothing spectacular or brilliant, but the same hard play ing which characterized his work throughout the 1914 season. Ike Wol fer of the Jefferson team played brll T.ant' ball after he hit his stride, and from the form he displayed in the Co lumbia and Washington games it would hardly be possible to keep him off the team. "Chuck" Parsons of Washington showed up well. Sax of Jefferson dropped off in his playing near the end cf the season. Alien of Columbia was a flash In the pan. His only good, consistent game was against the Jefferson team, and he was cer tainly a gem of the first water that t'av. There were several halfbacks who snowed promise of developing Into stars with a little more experi ence, two of the most prominent of these belli Preston Holt and Ralph Smith of the Lincoln team. Lynn Oliver, the dashing halfback of the Lincoln team, whose splendid playing wan more or less responsible tor the victory f the Llocolnltes over Washington, is shifted to fullback by the writer. There was no real full back in the league this year, Wilcox being the nearest to a real star. Hicks, the big fullback of the Portland Acad emy team, showed up In fine style at the beginning of the season, but his showing during the last games of the season did not warrant his being named on the all-star team. VI Lag Material Scores. There was, a scarcity of ends this reason. Johnny Murphy of Columbia was the only player who showed up in consistent manner In both offensive end defensive playing. Hixon, the young Jef fersonlan, was a star at de fensive playing, hut on the offensive his work did not loom up so well. Anderson of Washington was fair on the offensive and Malone of Columbia vas another good end. Paget of Lin coln played fair ball all season, and Kd Shea of Portland Academy, had he continued his great playing of the fust two games of the season, would have secured an all-star berth. Ozbun Walker and Mike Bloch showed up heads and shoulders above the other tackles. These "two play ers were stumbling blocks for the other teams of the league. Both showed up exceptionally well on the defensive and offensive. They car ried plenty of poundage. Glehlsoh of but it was not the same caliber of play that he displayed in 1914. Boeh mer of Lincoln played hard ball, and will be a dangerous man next season. Busch of Lincoln and Wiley of Jef ferson were the guards whose play Irg shadowed that of the others. These two players were exceptionally good st breaking through the opponents' line and stopping rushes on their own lines. Wiley Is a young player with a great future. BrlakeU Best Center. Oscar Driskell showed up better than any center the league has had for a couple of seasons. Besides his fine defensive play, hla offenslrre work was of the highest standard. Lapham of Washington played a Rood game and Knspp of Columbia improved as the season, grew shorter. WHEN NAMED AXA-STA IWTEMCHOLABTIO 700TBAXZ. EXXTXJT. Players Schools PrlskeU Lincoln . . .

Has Franklin High Eight to the Title? During the past season there lias been a freat deal of squabbling over the eligibility of thte amateur stand- ings of a number or players of va- i inns tpamH of the Intersf-hnlnaf f Football leapue. A number of pro tests were made, but only one was upheld, and that one protest robbed tne Lincoln high school of a chance to win the title. Truthfully speaking, the Franklin Mgh school should be awarded the championship. As far as can be ascer tained, not a single Pranklinite has a mark against his "lily white" stand lr.g, while, according to an authorlta- tive source, every other school played students whose amateur standings nre :uetionable There ha.ve been a great many ar- gomeniH against ine srana taken ty some of the teams during the past season, and the sooner the schools eliminate the players whose stand ings are questionable and who are not eligible to Play, the better for the league, say the critics. GOLF NOTES a Harold Stlner, who gave Walter J. Travis a licking at Lakewood. attracts much respect from galleries in the way he goes right out for the bacon. Steiner iigurea out a snot wnn more aeaaiy in- tent to put it over than any other of the experts. He is a short, loose Jointed youth, and gets a very long ball with apparently no reason. His short shots he plays bending close to the ground and 'seems to choke his club almost brutally near the head. He Is an ex citable player, always bobbing around. His recent mashle hop c Risley's stymie on tne twentieth hole for a win at Atlantic City was about as sen- sational and nervy a wlndup as has) been see for some time hereabouts. Gotham residents of the hill top of Washington Heights have laid out a two hole course near Wadsworth av enue, between One Hundred and Eighty-eighth and One Hundred and Ninetieth streets. They tee off from th curb and drive across two big vacant lots. C. K. G. Billings, whose place is across the "Broadway ravine," can see them through his glasses. Portland Golf Club Directors to Meet Officers of the Portland Golf club for the ensuing year will be elected at a meeting of the new board of direc tors to be held Tuesday.

S, C.j Football No Money Maker. Seattle, Wash., Nov. 20. The su preme reign of Gllmore Dobie Is about over at the University of Washington. The students are be ginning to resent the way Dobie has been handling athletics and have start ed a rebellion. The cause seems to be over the fact that Dobie refuses to play Washington State college this year after he has had several chances to schedule a post season game. The student body feels that they are paying Dobie a big enough salary to force him to meet their wants, but Dobie can not see it that way and has issued the 'statement that the Thanks giving game with the University of Colorado will be his last game of foot ball. It i expected that he will be at the helm next season again, as he has another yeasKo run on his present con tract. Football has not paid at the Univer sity of Washington for the last two seasons because there have not been enough games on the program. The students feel that since, the' 'eastern elevens and the other conference teams can play from seven to ten games in a season there is no reason why th Washington team can not do it. The student sentiment is that Dobie is afraid of losing his title if ho meets some of the stronger schools In the northwest conference. Thousands to Take Part in Athletics It is estimated that 25,000 young sters all over the world will take part In the annual events to be conducted l y the Amateur Athletic Federation of e'eok county.

A. athletes, the cooperation of other organizations, such ,aa hlgb schools, academies, colleges, play ground leagues, settlements, Sunday school centers, German turners, etc., is asked. It Is the idea to hold meets in each city under the same rules. Four Divisions will take pert, rang ing from ,14 to 18 years, in Indoor t-ports of various "forms.

The beginning of American golf is usually set down as November 18, 1888, when John Reid, the "Father of Ameri can Golf," Joined with six other en terprising and enthusiastic gentlemen and formed the St. Andrews Oolf club. The real start was somewhat earlier. Robert Lockhart returned from his annual trip to Scotland In the fall of 1882 a,nd happening to meet Joh i Reid on the street InsYonkera. he informe 1 him that he had brought from Scot land some Implements for playing jt new game called "golf." and Invittd him to come to his residence and tiy the game in the back yard. These twp men constructed an Im promptu six hole course In a pasture belonging to H. O. Tallmadge, 'another resident of Yonkers. Tallmadge was Invited to Join the circle of players for three reasons he was a good fel low, he became an enthusiast about the game, and he owned the golf course. The number of golfers at this time was perhaps half a dozen, and there were only 14 or 15 sticks in the country, all owned and used by this group. Sticks Wars BCeavy. These sticks had rings of different color painted on them to dlst Ina-ulsh he clubs of on player from those of another, and also to tell the clubs apart, for the. players of those days were not so familiar with the varl-. Ions between, the putter and tha driver as the present generations seems to. be. ine gon ciuds or the old days were fearful and wonderful things, ajid four ticks were a good load for any caddie. About 1888 the players had, bcome too numerous for ths m.iiiM llnlra and a new six hole course was laid out on the east bank of the Hudson river. where now some Tonkera manufactur- ng plant Is running full blast. It was here that the famous "Apple Tree Gang' came lqto existence. The play ers derived this name from the fact that their clubhouse at this course was verdant apple tree; its limbs were the clothes racks. Its leaves were awn ings, and its fruit provided the refresh ment for the wearied players. Pilac Alberta Worn. Here were held-the first tournaments. and here, to quote the secretary of the new born St. Andrews Golf club, J. B. i pham, in the "second round Mrs. Reid and Upham won by one and one- half holes, and John Reid beat Robert Ixckhart, 4 to 2'." The John Reid gold medal was played for- in 1889 and won by P. C. Myers. No player was forced to wear a high hat. but "Prince AiDerts were usually worn at touroa- merits. In 1894 the game became so popular and the membership of the St. Andrews Golf club so large that another change was made, and a course was laid out in the picturesque Sawmill river valley, MOOSE 82 Old Baker Theatre, 11th and Morrison Stst Wednesday, the 24th Inst.
