PORTLAND, Ore,, Dec.; S.
The University of Oregon will In
cline with thanks an invitatlott to
play a post-season football game
with the University of West Vir
ginia at San Diego on Christmas J
day, according to word received I
here tonight from Seattle.
This was made certain tonight
when the Pacific Coast Intercol
legiate meeting in Seattla put it
self on record as disapproving this
or any other post-season football
game except the official New
Year's day East ve West contest
at Pasadena.
Several of the conference reie-
sentatlves as individuals, said
they would like to see Oregon
have the game, but la view of the
severe reprimand voted against
Stanford university a couple of
months ago for scheduling a post
season game on its own campus
for December 30 against the Uni
versity of Pittsburgh, they felt
that they could not officially aj
prove the San Diego invitation.
EUGENE, Ore., Dec. in all
probability the University or
Oregon faculty wiil pass favor
ably on the West Virginia-Oregon
football game proposed for Christ
mas dayjn San Diego, t was an
nounced today on the campus.
Unofficial returns from a canvass
of the Oregon faculty indicate
that favorable action will be
taken on the game at the regular
faculty meeting next Wednesday.
The majority of faculty mectbeli,
with whom the , final dclision
rests, said that if the game is al
lowed by the Pacific coast confer
ence and desired by the Oregon
Athletic authorities now in at
tendance at Seattle, they will not
stand In the way.
A great deal of enthusiasm is
manifested over the prospects of
the game on the Oregon campus
The members of the Webfoot ex

outscored the Bonesteeles 8 to 3;
the Better-Yet Breads annihilated

Mausers.
Storm Yowls Outside
It was a stormy night outside
and the spooks were yammering
at every window. Maybe that
got on some of the nerves, or
on the ball, and things were
not what they seemed. It cer
tainly was the npsettin'est night
of the series.
Tucker failed of his usual ex
pert goal shooting in the first
game for the Pharmacists, but
Lenon made six out of 10 tries,
and one field gtal to boot. He
scored every point for his team.
Kenney did the same fact for
the Bonesteela, hut not quite so
much of it. He made all their
three points by free throws. . It
was . a remarkable game in that
only the one field . goal was
scored. Referee Sparks called
them closely, but carefully, the
game showing a tendency to run
wild, with 13 fouls called aga'nr.t
the Bonesteels and nine on the
Pharmacists.
. Bankers Come Back
The Better-Yt Breads lost
their first-series game to the
Bankers, but they came back
last night with a dazzling of
fense that brought them the
bacon. ' Harold Socolotsky es
tablished a new high individual
mark for thei 'whole series with
four field goals and two free
throws for points, ID points in
all. L. Gregg, center, scored
three field goals. Lucas made
one field goal for the Bankers,
and K. Thompson one point on
a free throw. Cramer of Wil

The Anderson-Browns slaugh

Only n'ne fowls were called in

Man Who Scored QobbV
Hit Makes Explanation
NEW YORK. Dec. S Frederick
G. Lieb. national president of the
Baseball Writers' association, and
the New York scorer who credited
Ty Cobb with a doubtrul hit in an
Associated Press box score, de
clared in a formal statement to
day that "the American league
had no authority to accept the un
official score of the New York
Detroit baseball game, played
here on May 15, 1922, in prefer
ence to the official score."
Cobb was credited with ths dis
puted hit, thereby gaining an av
erage of more than 400 for the
'third time, as a result of a de
cision by Ban Johnson, president
o the Ameriacn league, who as
8ertedthar the Associated Press
box score -was usod in preference
to the official score, which, he
added, as not authenticated.
"No member of the Baseball
Writers Vdraaecfat ion begxudKes
Cobb a 400 batting average, but
the use of baseball records will
be undermined if these records
are deliberately tampered with fn
order to favor any batsman,
whether he be a star or a medio
cre player," said Mr. Lieb.

December 16. Women only will
be admitted at this performance.
Edna Wallace will ;ro through
her daily morning routine for
tho fair sex, showing them what
Exercises she takes, what she
Ldoes to keep beautiful, even go
ing so far as to give them the
inside dope on her rules for bath
ing. In fact sh is said to take

"Remembrance the big super
special photoplay production will
also be shown along with the
"Wonder Lady" and as this is a
very unusual and high priced at
traction there is no doubt but
what the Grand will play to capa
city business. Not alone the fair

remain young. As far as the
latter are concerned, they have
to find the "fountain of youth"
in order to become young again,
but' all the women have to do
is to listen to Edna Wallace Hop
per and follow the advice she
gives.

are the other two figures of a
unique triangle in which Peters
j impersonates an honest, primi

Gee handle lesser roles.
Prosenting a new angle of the
eternal triangle, "The Cowboy
and the Lady," scored heavily
at the Oregon theatre last even
inp. Mary Miles Minter and
Tcm Moore were the featured
players, and supporting them wai
a cast which gave complete satis
faction. Did you know that Ruth Ro
land, now starring in the Pathe
serial, "The Timber Queen," was
headlining not so many moons
ago over the Orpheum Circuit
as "Baby Ruth?" She was also
a, featured child star with the
Belasco and Mtrosco Stock or-

San Francisco. At
,tne L-"erty
Seldom has Katherine Mac
Donald been supported by such
an evenly balanced and capable
cast as will be seen in "The In
fidel," displayed at the Liberty
theatre, commencing Sunday. In
cluded in the support of this
gifted and beautiful screen star
are such notably fine actors as
Melbourne MacDowell. Robert
j Ellis, Joseph Dowling. Barbara
iTennant, Boris Karlqff and oth
ers. Whenever Jos. J. Dowling Is
seen on the screen nowadays
people recall him as the Pat
riarch in "The Miracle Man."
Yet he achieved success before
that and has played quite as ef
fectively in later pictures, notab
ly with Dustin Farnum in "The
Trail ot the Axe." He is one
of the oldest actors before the
public today, having been born
in 1850. At the Liberty.
Those hard-to-please theatre
goers who object to seeing the
same story In different guises oh
the screen time after time will
be interested in "Wolf Law" at
the Bligh theatre Sunday and
Monday.
It is a Universal photodrama
starring Frank Mayo, directed by
Stuart Paton and founded on a
thrilling romance by Hugh Ten
