Trojans Meet Notre Dame
CHICAGO. Not. 25. (AP).
The : UniTersity of Southern , Cali
fornia, undefeated and with only
a tie with Stanford to tarnish its
brilliant record th Us season, will
engage Notre -Dame on Soldier
field tomorrow, in the first' east
ern InTaslon of a California team
The battle will be witnessed by
another throng of 110.000 specta
tors, thus equalling the football at
tendance -record for all time set
when the army played the nary on
the, same field a year ago. The "da
mand for tickets has been just as
great as for the spectacular serv
ice clash, and if Soldier field could
accommodate a quarter million
persons, aU of them would be
trying to squeeze into the stadium.
Weather i : indications tonight
point to a mild afternoon with a
temperature considerably , aboTe
freezing. As a result the gridiron
will be dry and fast, assuring a
firm footing. The field has been
well protected for a week with a
coating of hay.
The Trojans, perhaps the
strongest team on the. coast, and
possessing IndlTidual stars as well
as a powerful machine, are actu
ally engaging in more than a foot
ball game with Notre Dame. They
are, pioneering among California
elevens. In coming into midwest
ern territory to play a same and
the result of this sort of intersec
tional play will be watched with
interest by football ; . followers
throughout the land. ,"-
Coach Jones said he intended to
start the same team that has beat
en everything in sight on the Pa
cific coast, except Stanford. ;',
Rockne alone knows the com
bination which will take the field
at the klckoff for Notre Dame.

BEARCAT HOQPMEN
TO STHUY
With the ending of the gridiron
year, comes tne opening oi ue
basketball season for the Willam
ette Bearcats. Next Monday is the
day. Coach "Spec", Keene an
nounced yesterday.
"I want aU freshmen who are
intending to turn out for the
squad to be on hand for the first
practice "without fail,, Monday
afternoon from & until 6 in the
gymnasium," said Keene.
The Object of this is to get a
line on those who stand a chance
of bumping the varsity players
from their berths. Competent let-
termen are on hand for every po
sition except that of center, but
Keene will carry a squad of twen
ty -at home and take ten men on
all trips, to there will be places
open for aspiring freshmen ' and
others. Keene has his eye on Car
dinal for the center position. The
way he handles the7 football indi
cates that he will be a competent
hoop ball manipulator. He suf
fered a slight ankle Injury in the
game Thursday but will be in
shape soonJ f ' .'"s ' -. .
What the prospect is for this
season's team Is not a mystery.
It Is certain to 1e better than last.
when it tied for he conference
titles The title will be hard - to
corral this year; howeTer, for Wil
lamette must play the Missionar
ies: two games on the small, nar
row Walla Walla , floor on which
they are practically unbeatable
The Bearcats also must journey: to
College of Idaho for two games.
The trip through California will
be ; taken during the Christmas
holidays, i -
SEATS AT PREMIUM
If Salem fans -rant to olbtain
desirable seats for the Bayes-Pelz
bout next Wednesday, i it will be
necessary to make reservations to
day. Matchmaker Plant announced
last night. The mall every day
brings requests from out of town
patrons for ducats, many of them
from as far as Newport. : Extra
seats will be put in for the event,
which Is expected to draw a record
crowd. I " -'
It is well that a - large crowd
seems assured. Plant - said last
night, for only by big support will
he be able to bring such a fight
to Salem again. Pels is a head-
liner who draws $800 to a $1000
on a fight, and Is not inclined to
risk his reputation as a tighter for
any small snm. : I f t
Jack Wagner, Pels's manager.
telephoned Plant yesterday that
his fighter would mix with News
boy Brown, in the main event at
Portland two weeks hence, and
that he would put everything into
his mix with Bayes to prevent the
local battler from gaining the vic
tory, and spoiling the crowd Inter
est for the Portland go. '-1 ; v
Bayes is working out ; at the
armory erery day, 1 and ' taking
steam baths to ' bring , hla weight
down to 127 pounds for the fight.
Both men signed an agreement toJ
reach that weight or forfeit 1 10.0.
They will b ewelghed in , at the
armory two o'clock Wednesday.
The seml-windup will , be an
nounced by Plant sometime today.

Mickey Walker Wins from
Paul Berlenbach at N. Y.
COLISEUM, Chicago, Not. 25 ,
(AP) Mickey Walker, world'
middleweight chamnlon. failed to
knock out Paul Berlenbach, one
time world's light heavyweight
champion, but had no trouble
winning the. decision In ten savage
rounds tonight.
The match, fought in the Coli
seum, drew 9,000 with gate re
ceipts of $52000;
Walker, conceding 11 and one-
quarter pounds In weight, gave:
Berlenbach an unmerciful beating,
winning every round. .
He floored Berlenbach in the
fourth, falling on top of hiin.
when he followed through on his
terrific, left hook to the chin.
From then on, Berlenbach was
on the receiving end. Walker
rarely missed left hooks to the
body. His rights cracked against
Paul's chin with distressing effect.
Paralyzed, Paul made occasional
flurries. For the most part he
blindly plodded forward, absorb
ing these terrific wallops without
batting an eye.

ernoon the Orangemen listened to

It used to be thought that a wet

puVa stop to an aerial offense.
This season the Orangemen have
evinced no fear of wet weather
balls but have gone ahead prepar
Ing for a passing offense which
makes it begin to look like this
east vest game was going to be a
breath taking . affair. Forward
passing brings out the most spec
tacular side of football and both
Carnegie and Oregon State play
this style of ball to. a considerable
extent.
It Is difficult to predict the
style of play a team will use from
past performances. For instance;
Stanford was supposed to have a
great passing attack, but in the
big game with California the Car
dinals made all their big gains'
without resorting to the air. This
is not likely to' be the case be
tween the Tartans and the Bearers
as they play a deceptive, speedy;
style of football in which the for
ward pass is an Important factor.

IfJ WHIWi GAME
The malicious "jinx," .Whit
man's friend for eight years, per
formed again Thanksgiving day,
this time more efficiently than
erer. '.
The reasons for this deduction
are:
(1) Willamette completed 20
out of 26 passes in spite of a field
literally soaked with mud, an un
usual record for any team, and
one which far outstripped Whit
man's performance in that de
partment. (2) Willamette made first down
14 times to Whitman's nine.
(3) Whitman scored two touch
downs on intercepted passes, two
on passes, the kind Willamette's
defense this year has been almost
Impregnable against, and one on
two 'straight 15-yard penalties for
alleged unnecessary roughness on
the part of McKenzie, the Bear
cat's fighting guard. Most of th3
scores were made' on what might
be termed "breaks of the game."
(4) Uninterested spectators at
the game were loud In their state
ments that Willamette had the
betfer team. -
What is the Jinx?" Coach
"Spec" Keene call It "mental at
titude." The men fight harder
and try more earnestly to win
than against any other team. But
they seem to overdo it. There is
too much tension.
"If the men had gone Into the
game as they would go into a
scrimmage on their own field.
they would have won , hands
down," said Keene last night; not
by way of alibi, for he was loud
In his praise of the Whitman
team.
Willamette's chance to score
early in the game was turned into
a touchdown for the Missionaries.
After working the ball to the 18
yard line, C. Depoe stepped back
back and passed to - Mumfdrd.
Mumford was rlKht under it wltn
the field clear for a certain touch
down but Instead of dragging the
ball down, he pushed It with his
hands, into the grip of Meckelson,
who galloped 102 yards for the
score.
Another long pass to Cardinal
was Intercepted ; by Fetters - who
romped 80 yards for another six
points. ... . !.
The Bearcats' lone score cams
late in the game by the process of
completing seTen consecutive pas
ses, one on every play, an unusual
feat.
Cranor, Willamette sophomore,
who - already ranks as tne oe3i
halfback of the conference, played
a spectacular game, unerring in
nassinr and kicking. L.ang. aiso.
played a fine game until he was
injured, and Hauk substituted.
In anite of nreTious report to
th pontr&rr. Whitman's line and
backfleld outweighed Willamette
all the way through by about six
pounds.
Only one . man on the .Bearcat
squad will graduate this- -year.
That one is Zeller - Wood worth
has played four years, but as he
participated in games against
Washington and College of Idaho
for onlv two minutes in his fresh
man year, Keene "will bring his
name before the conference meet
ing in December and endeaTor to
secure his eligibility for next year.
McKenzie probably will be ost to
the squad as he plans not to re
turn to school. : He Is one of the
most valuable players.
