an eastern champion for the war foot
ball season 'will not be hard this year.
.Pittsburg- spells It all. The palm In the

and there the matter stands.
There are' some other teams which
have more than ordinary claims to
championship caliber, but the matter
could not be brought to a showdown.
There Is Pennsylvania university and
there la Rutgers, both of which have
done a remarkable season's work.
Georgia Tech. registered a'declslve vic
tory over Pennsylvania early in the

recuperation that has been accomplished
at Pennsylvania has mads the Polwell

Out of a team of not more than aver
age ability, with but one real player in
, the lineup. Murphy ha.s welded together
a formidable gridiron machine. Despite
the fact that Michigan had been weak

western cannot be robbed of credit for
i Its victory.

money In a franchise.
Al Baum, Cal Ewirag and Henry Berry,
who have been appointed a committee
to investigate -the Sacramento situation.

Following Sacramento s refusal to
enter the major-minor league of the
west, Fresno may do likewise. In that
event, what's going to become of the
Portland franchise? ' There is a rumor
Portland will enter the Northwestern
league next season, as per schedule, with
another club being dropped, presumably
Salt Lake, the Coast league being re

team, were unable to do a thing with the
Rutgers line. On the other hand the
Rutgers backs had no trouble at all in
gaining against the veterans.
Brown's victory over Dartmouth Sat

Several members of the Multno
mah Amateur Athletic club foot
ball team, which closed its sea
son last Saturday, will enlist In
varlouB branches of the country's
service this week.

clubmen In their battle against
the Camp Lewis team a fortnight
ago, has joined the signal corps
of the aviation branch. Henry Jones
Is going into the flying corps and
.Clayton Patterson plans to Join
the signal corps with Jack Day.
Gene Murphy, Al Horton and
Walter Lutge are contemplating
entering the navy. A couple of
other members of the club team
may also join the service In the
near future.
On account of the fact that so
many ofthe regulars were going
of
to leave the team, the club was
forced to pass up a Turkey day
game with the Fort Stevens team.
Despite the conditions, the club
had a successful season on the grid
iron. The club team usually de
pends on college stars for ifs play
ers, but this season there was a
dearth In college players and for
the most part the club was composed
of players who had gained reputa-.
tions In scholastic football.
The team won four games, lost
three and tied one) The club scored
on all of its opponents save the Ore
gon Aggies. The clubmen piled up
83 points to their opponents' 43.
Manager Bertz gave the clubmen
a dinner following Saturday's game.
No captain was. -elected for next sea
son, and none will be elected until
the players assemble next fall.

Practice It Dogged
Knudson Is in Thlesen's place at
left end and the practice goes dog
gedly on even though things do look
black.
News from the formidable team at
Pullman heralds it as becoming dally
more so and even the most liberal of
dopesters gave Washington no more
than a fifty-fifty chance before Gard
ner's departure.
fit's not hopeless," said Coach Hunt
today, "but
If real work, fighting spirit, ghost
balls and searchlights mean anything,
Washington will pull -through.
The traditional "night .shirt" parade
will be staged by the students en
mass the night before the game. Un

ing Game With Conqueror
of Portland.
