STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cah, Dec.
SO. U. P.) Cold., wet weather
was the prospect at . daybreak today
for this afternoon's east-west football
game between Stanford and Pittsburg.
A. drizzling ran which! at times crew
heavy and then shaded ; off ' again al
most to '.. fog. i-eU; during the night
and was continuing during the early
" morning. ? The result was a wet turf,
' afthoagh, not "a muddy one, and a
promise of only, a portion of the vast
; crowd ' expected, turning out to wit
new the game.; , -
Pittsburg" seemed a favorite in what
betting .was being done. Little money
was up. it appeared, and the-bets were
laid at the odds; which seemed to suit
the fancy of .the' bettors. . J
DEPEXU OK FIGHT - .
Stanford's record for the season,
composed chiefly, of glorious defeats,
was not such as to make her a favor
Ite over anj? team, among the technical
dopesters. - Her chances today, every
one agreed, were on the same basis as
'. they have been in every other game
. she has played, namely, dependent prin
cipally on the famous Stanford fight'
If the fighting spirit develops suffi
ciently, Pittsburg, everyone knew, could
expect trouble.- -Both
coaches reported .their - men
generally In, fine "Condition Sack.
- Pittsburg taxifcle, who. has been suffer
ing from - a cold, was better although
not entirely recovered.,
"My. men are In better 'shape than
they have been alt season," declared
Glenn "Warner, the Pitt . coach. "We
expect a hard game but we expect to
win ItT ' ". - " . -

Stanford's squad was 'hitting on all
s cylinders with the exception of Wilcox,
star halfback, who has been ordered to
'watch the game, from the bench on ac
count of-an lniuryv suffered earlier in
the season. His loss, however, will not
demoralise the Cardinals, as they have
several dangerous men who carry a
real threat - in the backfield, Cleve
land, substitute fullback, will start the
game in Wilcox's place, v -

OUTSIDE COACHES BAJTIfED '
' The ' state -organization - quickly
frowned ,on the discussion and it-was
unanimously voted that, if Portland
schools - wanted - to-: play other inter
scholastic ; representatives v of Oregon
all they had to do was to pay the an
nual dues of 35 and join the combine.
There is one big drawback which con
fronts the ; high schools' of Portland
when it comes seeking membership in
the state association and . that Is rela
tive to faculty, coaches.-, - - -
In almost every instance, coaches of
the various ' branches, of athletics In
the Portland Public high school league
.are -' members, of the faculty' and the
lew exceptions are in - cases - wnere
there is no qualified instructor 'other
than that received from , outside
sources. It has been pointed out that
it can be a dangerous matter to hate
a faculty coach when he' hasn't spe-
ciajizea in the branch of athletics that
has been assigned him. A student may
be 'told the conjugation of a verb in
uun ana it oe incorrectly given nun
but the after affects won t be as dan-
geroua or anyone know- the- difference
as in the case where the faculty coach
who has been ..assigned to handle an
athletic team. - sends an ' athlete into
a contest when he is unfit. An iniury
may be received ' which will be ner
manent and the boy or girt would be
rorcea to go through life with a phy
slcal handicap. , , , v y
POKTLAlfD; WOTJLaj pLAT ,
The . scholastic tajiHn- nf tTi' -pnr.
land high' school athlete must be as
high as the state 'students and crao-
tically every other ruling, is the same
as the outside inaututions; The only
thing that the Portlanders desired was
the right to play out-of-town teams
without - having their :'ODtonenta . sub.
mitteo, tor a jot:of grief and condem
nation from the state "association . di
rectors,..: - . ; - - " -. - - , ,
During the many discussions in .the
long meeting it Was admitted, in one
case' at least, a 'faculty ; member; b,ad
kvu uuuu uj- votusn dbq ot ue 'Scnooi
teams and . then ho . had been assisted
by a former university student who
lived in the- town. , All the facultv
mem oer am : was xo accompany 'the
team, see i to 'It . that: the-1 scholastic
standing was kept UD and be in charm
" iar. as seeping uie boys together.
No - comment ' was made regarding this
help but the faculty Aifimber Bhmiirt
oe commended for his stand in asking
for assistance when' he kneWlitmself
that he was not -qualified to be the
atmetic instructor. : The nlv reason
for- his being named,, no doubt, was
because of the state regulations.

The diminutive Philippine. Islander

:In February. Meet
. Newr York,- Dec', 80. The case ' of
Rube Benton, whispered out or the
major leagues, but permitted to play
with the St. Paul, team In the Ameri
can association, - whence he has now
been bought by 1 the Cincinnati Beds,
probably will be the subject of a fight
in. the February meeting 01 .we na
tional .league club owners.
Although Judge Landis gave tne for
mer Giants' pitcner a 'tuean om 01
health and permission to sign with the
Reds, it Is now recalled very , distinct
ly that Benton told John Heydler,
president of the Katlonal league, that
he won only $20. and It was on the
strength of this story that Landis let
him. come back. -v. ''- -,: -.':''-
The big question raised by the Benr
ton case is, however, whether a player
considered "unclean" in the majors
shall be considered "clean" enough, for
the minors, as Benton was. ,-
