The Golden Staters, while they were de feated by players who are not ranked among the firsjt five and in one or two canes by those notanrteaea in tne rann ings. made the going rather rough for . the first three of the unofficial raniungs. KEEB PLATED MUCH Jn the writer's oplnlont there Is little to choose between Neer, the Portland youngster, who carried off the Oregon State, and British Columbia titles, and Scott, the youthful Tacoma player, who won the International championship. Neer is rated ahead of Scott despite the fact that he lost to the Tacoma play er in the finals of the Internationals. because of his .record made in the vari ous tournaments. In addition to winning two titles, he played .his' way into the finals of tha Pacific Northwest event a f Tanrtmn a n r? thA Rpml.finslfl ftf f V P Washington State tourney at Seattle, in addition to meeting Maraha.l Allen in the finals of the Inland Empire tourney Fate brought these two sterling young sters together, but once during the sea son.

Se . attle fans are counting on these players ."to succesully defend their title. The Vancouver agtrregatlon will' line up Lehman, goal; Cook and Duncan, defense; J. Adams, rover; McKay, cen ter; Skinner, right wing, and Harris, left wing, with Wj A. Adams as the spare. .. "We're ready" Is the only comment Lester Patrick has to offer for his Vic toria Aristocrats and hia lineup tends to bear him out.

With the start of the season on Mon day, games will be played every Monday night in Vancouver, every Wednesday in ' Seattle and every Friday in Victoria, with the exception of the first two' con tests, which are billed for Saturdays in Victoria. Michigan Has Fine Gridiron Prospects Prospects for a football team in 1921 that will be stronger In nearly every re spect than the squad this year are bright at the University of Michigan. The hopes of the Maise and Blue for a team next year that will figure as a real contender for "Big Ten" conference hon ors are heightened by the fact that a large number of the members of this year's team will be back next fall. Five members of this year's eleven will be lost to the 1921 ' machine. They are Captain Angus Goetz, Tad Wleman, Abe Cohen. Jack Perrin and Jack Dunn. Among the seasoned men who will re turn are Goebel and Cappon, the two . ends ; Johns, a substitute tackle, who is relied upon to fill the place left by Goet; "Duke" Dunne and Wilson, guards, and Ernest VIck, center. Aside -from these varsity squad mem bers, CoacW Yost Is depending upon Roby and Kipke. , members of Hhe freshman team this year, to have regular berths In 1921.;' Van Orden, Plancke, Petro, Rowland and Wach'ter are other experi enced football-players who are expected to try for the varsity squad.

When the two elevens met the first time In this campaign the result was a 3 to 3 tie. The Pe ninsula players. are hopeful of hand lng the Vets their first setback: of the year. f The Peninsula athletes, are at their top speed right now, and but one defeat has been charged against the 1919-20 cham pions.. Clan Macleay handed Peninsula a 4 to 1 trimming in the opening clash of the present schedule. TWO OTHERS BILLED Besides the Vets-Peninsula engagement this afternoon, two other settos will.be offered for the approval of the fans. Kerns and Clan Macleay being billed to appear in the Franklin high bowl, while Manager Bill Bragg will take his Mult nomah Guards to Vancouver Barracks to meet the Standifer Shipbuilding Cor pferatlon representatives.

At present Parks is In the hospital in Van couver and the funds derived from the fracas will go. toward paying the hos pital bill. ISO OUT-OF-TOWIT GAMES ' All hopes of having an out-of-town soccer team meet r Portland eleven on Christmas day afternoon have gone glim mering, jiccordine to an announcement made by P. Chappell Brown, president of the Portland Soccer Football associa tion. He has, tried to land a match with the University of Oregon and the Oregon Agricultural college, but he reports that the Lemon-Yellow athletes have dis banded, while financial matters had a lot to do with the calling off of a Portland-Oregon Aggie contest There Is no doubt but that a game be tween two all-star combinations from the association will hold the boards next Sat urday afternoon, and it may be that two other elevens will battle New Year's day. Both these matters will be taken up for final settlement at the regular meeting of the league set for Monday night in the offices of Judge George Gameron. in the Chamber of Commerce building. The gathering will be called to order at 7:45 o'clock and all members are requested to be on hand. The games this afternoon are slated to start at 2 o'clock, with Frank Billington as referee at Columbia Park, H. Smea ton at Franklin bowl and Donald Harris officiating at the Multnomah Guard Standifer classic. Washington Fish, Game Laws May !

Harvard Loses Five Members of '20 Team Cambridge, Mass. Dec. 11 (I N. S ) Fiv of the 11 men who answered the referee's whistle at New Haven in Harv ard uniforms will be missed here next fall. These men are: Captain Arnold Horween, fullback, and the following linesmen : Bubbles Havemeyer, Jim Tol bert, Tom Woods and Duke Sedgewick. The heart of Harvard's heavy rush line, with the exception of Wy Hubbard, right tackle,, is thus demolished. ; The Harvard first team lineup next year will probably be as follows: Kane (captain), right end ; Hubbard, right tackle ; Brown, right guard ; Tierney, center; , left.guatd; Eastman, left tackle: Crocker, left end; Buell, quarterback : Churchill, right halfback ; Owen, left halfback ; Fitts, fullback.

Chatter From the Stove League JOHN SETS, advance man of the Chi cago Cubs, is in California arranging the dates for the training trip of the Chicago Cubs. Games have been ar ranged with the San Francisco, Oakland, Los Angeles, Vernon and Sacramento clubs. It Is likely that the Portland Beavers may land one or two games with the Cubs, should Walter McCredie be able to land a training camp in Southern California. - The Boston Americans wre found easy pickings for the opposing twirlers last season. Walter Johnson shut out the Red Sox without a hit July 1, and Morton of Cleveland put them down with one bingle July 31. duplicating the feat of "Collins of the New York team, who blanked the Sox June 26.

A feature of the entertainment will be massed boxing and wrestling, with the little fellows doing the exhibiting under the direction of Professor Thomas A. LouttiL boxing instructor, and Ted Thye, wrestling instructor. The Junior ; boys have been making great headway in both branches of sports and the in structors are going to show Just what has. been accomplished. Not to be outdone, the girls will be given . an opportunity .' to receive the plaudits of the crowd by staging t,wo numbers on the program besides ap pearing in the opening grand assembly. The Christmas tree will be much in evidence and immediately following the program President C. Henri Labbe will award the various boys and girls with their leadership monograms. The young sters have been working faithfully for this end of the exhibition. Plenty , of candy and apples will be disposed of as presents to those taking part and if there is any left over all the "little brothers, sisters and little friends' will be taken care of and if it is anything like last year there won't be any doubt about everyone present receiving some of the "goodies." .

The Multnomah Amateur Athletic club wonder is expected to be the mainstay of the Oregon Aggie swimming and div ing team and his entrance at the Cor vallis institution is looked upon as a means of attracting many promising aquatic stars.

Ruth erford is said to have played on - the Long Beach, Cal., championship con tingent a couple of years ago. The new swimming tank at Corvallis will not b completed before May, say the contractors, but this delay will give the new arrivals an opportunity to com pete on the varsity team next winter, after having been attending school the necessary one year, as required .by the rulings of the Pacific coast conference. With Raymond ("Bus") Douglas and Myron Wilsey," both holders of state swimming championships, attending the University of Oregon, some real compe tition can be looked on between the' twd state institutions. Douglas and Wilsey learned a great deal of their swimming in the Multnomah Amateur Athletic club tank the same time "Happy' Kuehn was performing. ' .

He has three games already signed up for the club gymnasium and three more are in prospect January 15 has been set aside for the game with the Oregon Agricultural col lege varsity. Efforts are Demg made to arrange a game with the Spokane club team for January 22, but if .this fails the preliminary game between the O. A.

Willamette university will play here, but no date has been set Telegrams have been dispatched by Manager Toomey to the University of Idaho and University of Washington seeking games. STARS WORKING OUT Although a conflict in dates is hold ing up the University of Oregon - Mult nomah game, it is not likely that the quintets will get very far in the 1920-21 campaign . before they have met. Jan uary 8 is an available date on the club schedule and it has been offered to the Lemon-Yellow tossers. The players working out for positions on , the club team are: Bob Morton, Ned Fowler, Ray Toomey, Clarence .Twining, Bill Hood, Al Brooke, Vincent. Jacob berger, De Prato, Gus Clem and X.

Intercity Grid Game Called Off One obstacle after another, so many of them, in fact, that a proposed stag ing of a football game on Multnomah field New Year's day between an all- star Portland interscholastlc eleven, and one- from Seattle, had to call' off all negotiations. As it is, Sergeant II. E. Davis, United States marine corps, head ' linesman of the Portland Interscholastic league, dur ing the 1920 campaign, has a letter in which it is stated that the Sound? City boys are anxious to come to the ;Rose City. Lack of time caused a halt fin the plans.. ' , :' A game between interscholastic all- stars would be a great attraction and It would give the fans an opportunity of seeing the pick from, each high school squad on one team. Tha game aa ongl rally proposed would not be held under the jurisdiction of the league but imply as a special athletic attraction. , New Coach for West Virginia West Virginia is on the lookout; for. a new football coach, according to re ports. "Tubby" Mclntyre, coaeh for six -years past, has led the Mountaineers to many successes, but there are rumors of . dissatisfaction over the last season and the athletic, board made no ap pointment for the position at a recent meeting. ' WestHasProducedManyStars i M FOR EASTERN GRIDIRONS V Portland Players Won Fame SEATTLE, Wash., Dec 18. Ohio State university or the University of Cali fornia, champions, respectively of the Western Conference and the Pacific rCoast - Conference, may decide New Year's day when they meet at Pasa-dffaa.- CaL, whether the East plays bet ter lootDau tnan tne ar weBi irom a team standpoint," but who is going to decide whether the East produces better individual players than the WestT Why do so many eastern coaches tail in tne western field? . When a supporter of the Eastern type of player points to the Brlckleys and Coys, your Pacific Coast man reminds him of the great Martin Heston, born In Oregon, who was the terror of Mich igan's rivals in the early days of Coach Fielding H. Yost at Ann Arbor. . HESTOJf WAS WOJtBEB While the Western athlete has not in vaded the eastern classroom in unus ually large numbers, it is a matter of record that those who have had expert' ence on western preparatory scnooi teams and who have gone East to higher Beats of learning, have had little or no trouble in making the team. Wherefore, your Pacific Coast booster will shout -that it is a good thing for the eastern football player that the Far West's aui letes do not pick up and go in a body to Harvard and Dartmouth, Princeton and Minnesota, Yale and Georgia Tech. Doubtless the best known of the type of Pacific Coast man who scintillated in j the East was Heston, who was the bulwark of Yost's great elevens of early in the last decade. I Another Oregon grown product who starred at Harvard was Hamilton Corbett. who learned his football at the old Portland academy. Harvard also drew Lewis Mills, football player and oarsman, from Portland, Or. Foster Rockwell, the great Yalequar terback, was the son Of an Oregon min ister and grew up in the Willamette valley. He was the brains of the Yale teams of 1902, '03 and 04. when Yale played real football, j SPOKASE MAX STARRED Who does not remember Wallace De Witt, the Spokane, Wash., boy who went from Washington State college to play fullback for Princeton and whose drop kick vfttory over Dartmouth November 11, 1911. was responsible for the change In tha rules reauiringthat a field goal .must go over the cross bar without first having struck the ground 7 Ana it may have been Wesley Englehorn. Walter Camp's choice for All-American tackle, who hurried DeWitt, so that his, drop kick did not have enough carry, causing it to fall to the ground and then bound over the cross bar. Englehorn, likfe De Witt, was born in Spokane. They played one year at Washington State college and together went ! Kasi, tne one i Princeton and the other to Dartmouth, . Then there was ! Dan Pullen, who learned his footbalA. B.

Angell, who haa aiso piayeu tha I nlVPrSlLV ul i v " tarred at Columbia as a guaro, ocii.g probably the only ; one-handed football player who ever made a big college team. t .1., o Columbia went Tom Ross, a 240-pound guard, who was developed at Astoria, Or., high school, and Chauncey Bishop, star end. who did his prep work at Salem, Or., high school. Both played regularly with the: Columbia eleven. captaiked'sotee dame Pennsylvania . obtained the services of m.in whn" hut niavea ena at me University of Washington,- while from the Aberdeen, Wash., high school went Roy Wood and Bert Glidden to Frank lin and Marshall.? From Aberdeen to Noire Dame went Freeman FiUgerald, who was captain of the Catholic eleven in 1915 and all western guara. aibo vo Notre Dame went Bill Matthews, a Washington, end. William C Speideu now a pronpervmo physician at Seattle, played football on the .University of Washington team and afterwards starred on Coach Staggs University of Chicago team, while taking medical course there. . t Df,v,tt, wan the college selected oy Max Houser of Mount Vernon, Wash., who played halfback at the Pennsyl vania school last j year. STARS 03f SERYICE TEAMS Ti,n.n was not the only army player who hailed from the Northwest, for Bob Hammond of Eugene, Or., ana iiaroia Johnson of Portland, Or., both -starred at West Point. Johnson was a quarter back and Hammond an end. " Western stars have mawe the isavy team, too. Harry i A. Bones, aeaiue, irna year played left tackle at Annapolis and helped to open the hole through which Koehler made the Navy s winning toucn down aeainst the Army November 27. Bolles played in 1919 also, out receivea a broKen leg Deiore uio j '" H rowed in the Navy's shell in Belgium last summer. Bolles is a Billings, Mont, TolvtvhhiC school product. Michigan football fans still remember the great end played b Stanley Bor- leske, the Spokane, wasn., Doy. Eastern football fans of the early '90s win doubt remember Marlon Dolph, niavAd fullback at Amherst. He is nnw ML lawver in" Portland. Or. -Notre Dame has been weti suppuea hv Oreeon and Washington scnoois. Among those starring there from Port land prep schools were Frank Lonergan. Ralph DlmtnocK ana ieorge rnuoruom the latter an American weight man and all-around entry ,in the stpcKnoim uiym pic games. 1 PLAYED IS EAST AND WEST - in in-rtanoRltlon to the western ath lete going Eaet,! is the case fo Charles Mayr who played guard at Cornell and Willie Ritchie Thinks Well of Geo. Carpentier Willie Ritchie, former llgktwelght ehmniploa of the world, 1 one of the many Car pra tier boosters. Willie ays that if the frog eater is wise he will danee away from tbe feroeions Dempsey for four or five ronnds and keep Jnek on the Join p. "Dempsey nsnally beats his man early," says Willie. "They all try to trade wallops pith him. Ibe way to beat him Is to keep swny and make him anxlons. If the Frereliman is at foxy as we are led to belleTe, he can aeak one over and finish it, We all know that he ! packs a nasty kick In tbnf right." : rowed on the crew.: He came to the University f Washington and played guard on the Washington team ana rowed on the ' Washington crew. He was the engineer who superintended construction of the new-University of Washington stadium in the record break ing time of six months. California is not represented to speak of in players who have gone East from that tsate for the reason that Rugby supplanted the American game at Cali fornia and Stanford in 1906 and contin ued In force at Berkeley for 10 years and at Palo Alto for 13 years. EASTERN MENTORS FAIL Many an eastern i football coach has come to grief on Northwestern grid' irons. Tha University of Washington tried out a number before GUmour Doble, present Cornell coach, and Minnesota graduate,' was brought out from the North Dakota Agricultural college in 1908 to pursue his nine years of victory without a defeat to stare his record in the face. From Princeton in 1903 came Jim Knight, an All-American player who made a fizzle of coaching, although he Lasted two years. Oliver Cutts of Har vard coached in 1905. Bruce Shorts of Michigan had the. eleven In 1908. Victor Place coached in 1907 and was succeeded by Doble. Oregon gave an opportunity to a num ber of coaches before Hugo Bezdek came out from Chicago for the second time and established the style of play which is in vogue today under the graduate coachlns? system, The Eugene college tried Gorfon Frost. Bob Forbes of Yale for two years and Bob Warner, .a broth er of the famous Glen of Carlisle and Pittsburg fame. Forbes system was just beginning to show results but the impatient Oregonians wanted an imme diate winner, ' , CARLISLE GAME WINNER Oregon Agricultural college tried out a number of eastern coaches, among them being Sol Metsger, fresh from Pennsylvania, who lasted but the one season. . He is now coaching at the University of South Carolina. Fred Norcross, the old Michigan quarterback, was the only coach that ever made good at O. A C. and he retired from the game to follow the pursuit of engineer ing in Virginia. "Lonestar" Dietz. the old Carlisle half back, made good at Washington State college by producing two championship teams in the Pacific Coast conference, but was involved in army draft diffi culties and was not retained. Gus Welch, another Carlisle player, has made a good record as gridiron tutor of the Wash ington Staters. ' Nebraska is now said , to be after him. . Who is going to decide whether the East produces better, players than the West? ICopjrrWht, 1920. xbr On P.
