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. '; He should be ashamed c
himself and certainly deserves
the limit
