The lub squad was split "every which way" by Manager Convlll, and some of the boys got a chance to show In both contests. Some of the newcom ers played in brilliant style. In the same against Columbia, Chet Murphy was the tig ground gainer, while Lynn Oliver, who was a member of the Lin coln high ,school team last year, gained most of toe yardage made by the club men against Pacific by his long end runs. Several of the club's regulars were not In the games, Hungry Smith and Jack Day being among the absentees. The club's chances against the Univer sity of Oregon team In next Saturday's game were given a setback, when Alex Donaldson epralned his .ankle In the game against the Pacific team, shortly after he had replaced Lackaff In the left halfback position. ' Against Coach Calltcrate's prep team, Multnomah scored a touchdown In the first quarter. In the second quarter they were held scoreless. Touchdowns1 were scored in both quarters of tne last half. Chet Mur phy carried this ball over the goal line for all three touchdowns, and Len Ktrelblg's educWted toe converted the three gotls. The Pacific university team put up a (treat fjfrht against the ilubmen, and during the fireti quarter had the club men on the defensive. In the second quarter a forward pass from Paget to leWltt put the clubmen in position to send Oliver ovefr the line for their touchdown Oliver failed to convert. Pacific held Multnomah even during the last two quarters, and were repeat edly breaking vip the clubmen's for ward pauses. Pacific was more suc cessful with Its ps8o, and also gained considerable grouiil by endruna. Tom l.outtit. thiy Hub's heavyweight boxer, made his i rft appearance on the club team, an he showed up in great style., Pnx-. former Lincoln player, also showed up well, as did Gtl Shea. Following their Showing yesterday, the club men will lve to tako a big brace if they expect to make a show ing axalnst the l.'tiUersity of Oregon team next Saturday. The games were itiayed on a field that rivaled a deserO considering the clouds of dust which vere arising fol lowing each down. The llne.ups: First O ante. . Football will take the front of the stage at Reed .college next Wednesday afternoon when the first game of the season will be played on the athletic field at the college between teams of UPPer and lower classmen. The two teams have been practicing for some time past. Hay Lap ham coaching the lower classmen and Nell Malarkey the upper classmen. Lapham has had more material to use in making his team than Malarkey. The lower classmen will have a light backfleld. and a Tairly heavy line. while the upper classmen will have some good line plungers In the back field, and the line will have about the same weight as that of the freshles and sophs. The lineup will probably be as follows: TJnder- Position C. . R. G. .L. G.. . .R. T. . .L. T . R. E. L. E. classmen M. Peterson. Peffer Chamberlain. Hlrsch Cunningham.

II Bozorth A relay race between the freshmen and the rest of the school will be held in the near future from Oregon City to the college. The move was first made by the freshies, and immediately taken up by the others. Oscar Soren son has the verdant hopes in hand and Horace Miller will put the representa tives of the other three classes through their training. The distance will be 12 miles, and it Is planned to have each entrant run one mile. The course has already been laid out, and the race will probably be run within the next three weeks. Willie Harmon will be one of the contestants in the finals of the men's singles tournament, which has been going on for the past three weeks. Clyde White will play against Harry Moore in the semi-finals. The doubles tournament has been won by Harmon and Byron Matthews who defeated Kocheng Chung and James Rogers in the finals last Wednesday afternoon with the scores 7-6, 6-0. Each of the winners receives a tennis racquet which is put up by one of the local .sporting goods houses.

Wednesday, the Washington high and James John teams will play and Friday Lincoln and Franklin will meet. The School of Commerce will be handicapped in its initial game In view of the fact that William (Bill) Schmitt did not take over the reins as coach until a couple of days ago and he has had but very little opportunity to shape his offensive attack. There arc some very good players enrolled at the new school and before the end of the season, Schmitt will have a strong aggregation, provided none of his reg ulars are injured. With a sextet of his last year's reg ulars back and a big squad of prom ising second string players. Coach Callicrate of Columbia will probably turn out another team that win be a contender for the league title. Jefferson Strong.

Coach Jamison has a number of last season's regulars on hand in addition to the material he had on his second squad last year. With Captain Giebisch at center, a quintet of players to select his guards from and three good husky tackles and a trio of fast ends, Includ ing Hlxon, who was selected on the 1915 all-star team, the Blue and Gold will have an exceptionally good line. The backfleld men are showing fine form in practice. Steve Wilcox, one of last year's mainstays In the back field, is playing in great form this season. After a number of setbacks through the ineligibility of a trio of players and injury to others, the Lincoln squad appears to be one that will make the other teams hustle. When the team started practice. Its followers were claiming the championship, but right now the Cardinal line-up does not loom i up as strong as last season's squad. but, for a matter of fact, none of the teams appear to be as strong as they were last season with the exception of the Franklin high school team. Fran ilia Improved. Coach Dewey is putting the Frank lin players through a hard practice season and when they line-up for their first game against Lincoln next Friday, the followers of the scholastic teams will see a very different ag gregation than the one which repre sented Franklin last season fti action. Coach Earl of Washington has some of his huskies of last season's team out in uniform again this year and from present indications he turns out a team that will probably have a weighty advantage over the other squads. The James John high school team is being put through a series of hard practice and Friday Coach Strong lined his players up in a practice game against the Gresham high school. Cardinals Defeat A flock of football enthusiasts gathered in New York the other day and, of course, the subject drifted to the gridiron and its past and present status. "Walter Eckersall was the greatest quarterback that ever donned the ar mor," advanced a western rooter. And although the gathering Included men from Yale, Harvard, Cornell, Pennsyl vania and Princeton, no one disputed the assertion. "In all around play Eckersall never had a peer," continued the westerner. "He was a punter and a drop kicker whose deeds still are fresh in mem ory. He was one of the headiest field generals the game ever produced. He was a wonder in playing defensive back and could make greater gains through a broken field than any other runner of the past or present. Time Out Only Once. "The Glory of Eckersall becomes even more apparent when one remem bers the fact that during the four years he starred for the University of Chicago team he never was put out of a game. Only once was time taken out for him. Yet. in every game that Chicago played, Eckersall was the center of attack; every foe was in tent upon disposing of him because it feared 'him more than any other man on the team or any three men, for that matter. Eckersall, all during the time he played, never weighed more than 143 pounds, yet he starred in an era when beef and brawn were requisites for the varsity football Job. They 'laid' for Eckersall and they tried to put him out but they never succeeded. And That Was in 1905. "The only time that Eckersall ever was hurt so badly that he forced a delay in the pastime was during that memorable Chicago-Michigan game in 1905 when Chicago beat the great Wolverine team, 2 to 0. They were big bruisers, those Ann Arbor boys, and they rammed and battered through a line Ulfe a locomotive. They singled out Eckersall as the main point of at tack but the plucky kid took their mauling and came on for more. Cur tis, the Michigan giant, ripped through the line once and crashed Into Ecker sall with such force that he knocked the wind.Mt of the little fiuarter. Hut after a ipm- minutes the kid got back into the game again and played with renewed fury. "A football player Is Judged not only by what he does but also by his power to assimilate punishment. No matter how brilliant a player may be, he is valueless to his team If he cannot stand up under the battering and stay lij the game. A star on the sidelines lg of as "much value to the team as a toothpick Is to a pig. The man who is in the game week after week and plays It with amazing skill Is the one who writes his name In In- dellible letters In the football hall of rame. "And such a man was Walter Eck ersall.' wesiey T. Engelhorn of Spokane, former W. S. C. and Dartmouth foot ball sta. is coaching the Cut nrhnnl ! of Cleveland football team again this season, r Art Phelan, former quarterback of the Columbia University team of the local Interscholastic league, has been unable to turn out with the Notre Dame University squad on account of an Injury receiveds. while working on the Oregon coast during the summer. Portland boxing fans who had their hearts set on seeing Ad Wolgast, ex- lightweight champion of the world, in action in a six-round boxing bout next Friday night, are doomed to disap pointment. The Michigan Wildcat suf fered an injury to his right ear dur ing his four-round engagement at Se attle Friday night against Chet Neff. which has forced him to cancel the bout scheduled with Muff Bronson. President King of the Imperial club made an effort to have Vincent Mon pier substitute for Wolgast, but he could not come to terms with the city amateur champion and falling in this he decided to stage a bout between Valley Trambltas and Young Jack Johnson as his main event. These two boxers put up a cracker jack bout at the Rose City club two weeks ago. The remainder of the card will be pulled off per schedule. Billy Nelspn, the Spokane lightweight, meeting Mickey McMlnnin, the semi-wlndup. The other bouts of the card are: Abe Gordon vs. Eddie West, Jack Dewts vs. Pete MIsche, Ad Makt vs. Carl Marlln and Joe Burns vs. Nell Zimmerman. Jimmy Cassell will officiate In the main event and Roy Kendall will be the third man in the ring in the preliminaries. OREGON ROLLS UP 9r ?;- POINTS AGAINST TEAM FROM WILLAMETTE 'IF - -r .

Would That the Eing Was Full of These New York, Oct. 7. Some battlers think that one of the essentials for success is to have a manager who can yell orders from the corner of the ring. "Silent" Martin isn't of that sort, simply because It wouldn't do him any good if he did have a "noisy" manager, which he hasn't. Martin is a deaf mute, and so la F. W. Melnken. who gulden his destinies. Earlier in his career Martin had a talkative manager, but he found him liability Instead of an asset. Of course, a manager who can talk Is a handy person to have around when a bum fighter wants a little publicity, But Martin decided that actions speak louder than words. Ho he hired Meln ken and they have lived happily ever since. When Martin Is in the ring Meln ken Is In his corner. If the manager thinks It necessary to advise a bit. he wiggles a few of his fingers and presto! Martin understands and goes right out and follows said fingered ad vice. Martin, by the way, is the only mute who ever galnod any real promi nence In the squared circle. He .was quite generally pooh-poohed when first he made his entry In the professional ranks, but none of the middleweights is pooh-poohing him very much now.
