This year t He -bags were much larger ant filled with hay; a man could readily enough put one on h'.s shoulders and run with it If nobody stopped him. Sometimes the opponents tack led the man who was dragging the bag. and sometimes they tack led the bag itself. - .And some times they missed everything, and rolled In the dirt. Frequently a bag would" be skidded the whole length of the field, with two men dragging it. and one of the oppo sition sledding along trying to stop their progress. A number of wrestling matches were staged in isolated corners of the field, where two daughty warriors de cided to fight it out to a finish and let the rest of the world go by with its bags and its yells. Kmniel and Mootry Stars Some fast work was done by some of the players. One of the features of the game was the will-o'-the-wisp running and tackling of Harold Emmel for the sophs and of Mootry for the frosh. Em mel was rated as the fastest on the floor in the basketball squad last winter. If he picks up skill as he .has speed, he ought to be one of the brightest basketball stars in the northwest before he ends h's college course. And Mootry looks like a football shark already. There were a lot of other fast, heady lads In the scrimmage. some new, some old, but all as deadly In earnest as it the other side were Caesar or differential calculus and they. simply had to beat them. A large, joyously noisy crowd witnessed the big an nual event. ' Disheveled in Class ... rroi. j. j . maunews told a vivid little story of the big class scrimmage on the campus at noon, when be related -that "A perfect gentleman of a young man came to class with his shirt skirts en tirely exposed, and he didn't seem to know it." The fracas started when 'the frosh took some of .their own Hnen down 4e?them411 raee-to-duck them: for Infractions of the fresh man rules. After properly sub merging their errant knights, they all started to serpentine back to the campus, and the sophs had the unwisdom to attack them in a bunch. It is conceded that the sophomorio wisdom was under an eclipse, and was being rotten egged and cat called when they made that attack, for the frosh certainly did 'em up to a peak and thea knocked the peak off.

Salem would have a stone-wall defense against anything in the valley or the state. Litchfield weighs 210 lbs. and he's a sophomore and still growing. He isn't on the regu lar team, but he will sub for the first, and it may be necessary to use him for his weight and strength. The rest of the team runs up quite well in weight. The average will be about 160 -without Litch field. It is largely a team oi seasoned players. Only a few really new men are in this year. On Saturday the team plays iti first game, with Chemawa. The Indians are tho lighter by fully five pounds to the man, and they are practically all new ' to the game. However, nobody evei goes up against the Indians with out getting a bumpy surprise. Salem High ought to win on weight and experience- but you never can tell until it's all over. Some powerful young ail-Americans have been brought in for the Indian team. Men who are ac customed to 'rassling bulls and things on range and in forest and mine, and they will play a deter mined game. One of the most beautiful ath letic schedules ever offered west of the Rocky mountains is to b be offered by the Salem high thit season. Starting Saturday with Chemawa, .the team plays six games in Salem. Two dates are open, 'November 18 and Novem ber 30, Thanksgiving, that might be played here also, making it unanimous. Albany comes here October 20, McMinnville October 27. Corvallis November 4, and Hill Military academy Novembei 11. Eugene, the deafest enemy of them all, comes on November LITCHFIELD ' ' ' 'v. -m.

Season tickets are being sold for $2.50 to cover . the games played on the local field. A fine lot of these are being taken lip by interested Salemites, assuring that the season's expenses will be jared for. Oscar Butler Wins Bout At Silverton Tuesday SILVERTON. Ore., Oct. 12.

Dunnette, who took his place, s showing up well. The game showed that the 'var ity team has the real punch. The lodging runs of Zeiler and Isham, and the line smashes of Dunnette. nake the team look like a steam roller geared up to h'gh speed. The team is not heavy, only two Jr three pounds heavier than the Salem high school average, though there is one heavy man. Warner, who tips the scales at 210 pounds. That Is so much above the rpst oi the team, however, that even with h".m the team is very light. prooaniy under 165 pounds.
