THE 191& sport season in the Northwest-7-considering the set
backs it encountered can be considered fairly successful.
Ahiateur sports were hit harder than professional sports
for the reason that practically every high-class, simon-pure per
former was in some branch of the service.

Field Meets Abandoned
Track athletics of the colleges and
clubs were abondoned on account of the

their annual events.
Hockey did not fare so well an In the

Professional boxing was successful, a
number of excellent smokers being held
In Portland. Seattle and Tacoma.

This Is the question that wrestling

It was generally believed that
8teher would follow his former tac

the use of the scissors hold, for which
he Is famous.
"Dope wag wrong and the farm

by Dr. A. O. Browne, chairman of the
meeUng, will hold a meeting within the

One of the most important ideas of the
bill, which if passed, will result in com
pulsory physical training throughout
the high schools and grammar schools
of the state, calls for the physical exam
ination of all students. This Is done on
a small scale in some of the schools, but
it is the plan of those who will formu
late the bill to have all students 'exam
ined for physical defects and to remedy
these by special training. It Is also
planned to work In conjunction with the
health department.
Member! of Committee
The members of the committee, which
will form .the bill, are Robert Krohn

Look for Big (arars
' "I look for some big league foot

ference. I also believe that the"
Multnomah club eleven should be
able to turn out a strong eleven
next 'fall."
Nothing haa been done toward a
selection of a reach for the Oregon
team of next fall, declared Walker.
He was of the opinion that "Shy"
Huntington, who accomplitthed won
ders with the green material of the
1918 squad, would be given a
chance.
Talent Is Promising
'There is going to be a handful
of athletic coaches next "year." he
said. "Over 50 applications have
been received by Oregon already
and some of them are from men
who have established records in
various parts of the country.
"A. A. Kxendine, former star of
the Carlisle team under Glenn War

fered its first defeat in six years at
the hands of the Cleveland Naval
Reserves In the final game rV the
1918 season. Is one of those whhaa
applied for the position at the nnl

Georgetown . university, team of
Washington. D. C, for a number of
seasons and was an applicant for
the position at Washington State
college a couple of seanons ago.

Walker- declared that a large
number of athletic directors of the
army camps would follow athletics
after they had been released by the
army.
