OREGON DOWNS WASHINGTON Home Team's New Line-up Proves a Winner. In the fastest and by . far the best game played on the home grounds this season the local col lege team bested the Washington Agricultural College yesterday afternoon to the tune of 6 to o. The local team presented an entirely different line-up and each man played his' position to per fection. The Washington team, while putting up good ball, was clearly- outclassed by the Farmers, who, with a grim determination to use every possible precaution against deleat and with a record of not a single toucnaown in lour games staring them in the face, not only put up the best game they knew how, but the headwork and judg ment that was used by them helped much toward scoring a victory. The first half was nearly all played between O. A. C's 25 an'd 50 yard line, and it was here that Capt. Pilkington used fine judgment in punting on the first formation, while Pullman buck ed the line for two downs, with small or no gains and then were forced to punt. After O. A. C. scored her touchdown . she started toward the opponent's goal with a vim. but Williams - fumbled, which gave Pullman the ball and dur ing the remainder the game was played between Oregon's 25 and 50-yard line. Pullman worked a quarterback kick in good shape until Coival neatly blocked a lew of them, which compelled Washington to abandon that particular play. Corvallis fumbled once and Pullman twice, and the latter's biggest gain was a 20 yard end run by Lobaugh. . Each man on the Pullman team played his best, but they made no sensational plays, as compared with the home , team. Among the spectacular player for the local collegians, Captain Pilking ton was, as usual, the str player and his spectacular fake punt and his 40-yard run was a feature. Walker played an unusually good game and his tackling brought him many cheers from the grand stand. Little Rumbaugh, who took Cupper's place, did : some great work and his securing a fumbled ball and makings good gain with it won him much praise, v " But Root was the teal hero of the day. . Securing the ball in the latter part of the last half he cleverly passed a half dozed Pull man men and after a 15-yard run made the only touchdown for O. A. C. this season. He fiercely fought his way to the center oi the goal, thus making it easier for "Pilk" to make the kick. Vonderhellen, Bowers, Bundy. Abraham, Spagle, Cooper and Williams all . played a steady game and each one deserves much credit for their excellent showing. The game was full of punting and it was here that O. A. C. simply put Pullman in the shade although the Washingtonians made some good punts. As a whole the game was one of the prettiest and most sensa tional ever played on the local gridiron. The home team with its new line-up adopted entirely different tactics and their contin ual punting saved them much line bucking and they came out of the game much fresher than their opponents. . NOTES OF THE GAME. - Cupper was right there 'with the goods" until he was laid out. Oh, why didn't we have the present line-up when we played Albany. Rumbaugh showed his hitting ability when a Pullman man fouled him. Rumbaugh was justified in doing as he did. We notice a decided improve ment in the band since its first appearance. The College is justly proud of its musical organi zation. , The home team changed suits between halves, which was a great help, but Washiugton played both halves withqut a change. From his superb punting in Wednesday's game Captain Pilk ington's nick-name should be changed from "Pilk" to "Punt ing Pilk." ; , .The Gazette reporter felt like a thirty-cent piece with a hole in it when he found out that O. A. C. could play" ball, and winning ball at that. We'll be good after this. : . i If O. A. C. plays such ball against Eugene as they did with Pullman, the U; of O. team wil find themselves up againsta team that know how to play ball, 1 Albany did beat us. We wonder who wrote tha piece in tne gazette saying that O.' A. C. would not wm game and probably would not score.
