Put Through Nevada's Line For
Three Touchdowns.
In the last game on the home
grounds this season, the Oregon
Agricultural College team yester
day afternoon defeated the Uni
versity of Nevada, of Reno, by a
score of 15 to o. Although alter
the first ten minutes of play, the
game was considerably one-sidtd,
was 1 nevertheless brimful of
pretty and spectacular plays.
Nevada did all her brilliant play
ing during the first ten minutes
but the magoificent showing they
maele in' that short time was
enough to leave the game in
doubt ui til the home team suc
ceeded in nuking its second
touchdown.
O A. C. wen the toss and
kicked to Nevada's 15 yd line.
On the next play C. Hart. U. of
N. got around the end fr the
longest run made, on the local
grounds this season 55 yards.
After a few plays the ball was
worked to O. A. C's 15-yd line,
but the locals took a wonderful
brace and succeeded in getting
the ball on downs. The next
several plays were of minor im
portance, Nevada failing in an
attempt to make place kick from
O. A. C's 25-yd.line. The ball
was then worked back and forth
with honors about even, until a
Nevada man again got clear and
on a fake punt made a 40-yd run
to Corvallis' 1 5-yd line. Here
again O. A. C held the visitors
and by superb punting by Capt.
Pilkmgton with perfect support.
Nevada could not make yardage
and before the spectators knew
what had happened the home
team had carried the ball to the
opponents 25-yd line.
It was here that Corvallis
worked like Troians and by ter
rific line bucking, using Wil
liams for a battering ram, Neva- j
da was powerless to stay the on
slaughts and the ball was worked J
to TJ. of N.'s 5-yard line. Now!
came the prettiest fake play of
the season. By a false pass Ne
vada was completely outwitted.
and as a result Williams went
around the end lor a touchdown.
The remainder of the first half
was played in the visitors terri
tory and ended with the ball 16
yards from Nevada's goal.
In the second half Nevada
kicked to our 25-yard line. Fail
ing to make yardage . the . ball is
O. A. C's: "Pilk" next makes
a good punt of 40 yards, and
again Nevada is held for downs.
O. A. C. punts forty yards but
Nevada advances ball 25 yards.
At this point TJ. of N. tries a
fake play but Pilkington did not
feel inclined to let the visitors
play that way and as a result
Nevada lost yardage. TJ. of N.
is then forced to punt. On the
next play Williams wanted to
show his sprinting ability and
after making a 40-yard run, a
Nevada man kindly stopped him
lest he didn't know enough to
quit running. Ball was then on
TJ. of N's 20-yard line. Here
O. A. C. was penalized 5 yards.
Pilk then tries drop kick but
fails. After a succession of plays
during which Nevada makes
some gains, Williamsj gets scared
again and runs 30 yards to Ne
vada's 5-yard line before called
upon to halt After a couple of
plays Pilk goes over the line, but
by accident the ball slips from
his grasp and what should have
been another touchdown was lost
by the fumble.
After several minutes of play
Williams is wound up and turned
loose again and with the assist
ance of Pilkington this time they
stopped for nothing, as a Nevada
man found out when they hit
him, and they made a 40-yard
run for a touchdown -Pilkington
again fails at goal.
Pilk kicks off to Nevada's 10
yard line, who advance ball 25
yards. Nevada loses ball on
downs and Williams goes through
for 20 yards, and ball was finally
worked to visitors' 5-yard line.
Here Nevada stole the ball from
Bowers and punts 30 yards.
Abraham goes throwgh the line
ibr 15 yards. On the next play
Williams severs his connection
with the rest and trots behind
Nevada's goal for the third time.
Pilkington made the third failure
for a goal.
Nevada made lair gains during
the remainder of 'the game,
but
darkness made it difficult to
watch the ball. The visitors'
failed in a place kick and the local
football season was ended for
1903.
In justice to the Nevada boys
we will say that they were com
pletely worn out from the last
ten days travel , and playing,
although from the showing that
O. A. C. made it would have
worried them to have won had
III I Mr MMM M
they been in fine shape. The
Nevada boys have played three
games within a week , besides
traveling hundreds of miles by
rail, which is a strain no team
can stand and play winning ball.
Their excellent showing with
Stanford and Berkeley will
vouch for the statement that they
are a team hard to excel when in
good condition. They are gen
tlemen in every respect and Cor
vallis is proud to have had the
honor of entertaining such
manly lot of young men as the
Reno plavers prove themselves
to be. "

Reign of Terror in Blodgett Valley
The citizens of that part of
Benton county known as Blodgett
Valley, on the road leading from
the Arnold farmland running by
the Isaac Norton place, have
been experiencing a miniature
reign ot terror for the last four
months.
A certain road was laid out by
the highway officers, and declared
a county road by the county
court. On this road a bridge was
built, over a ravine or creek.
For some unknown reason this
bridge failed to be appreciated as
it should nave been. A thresh
me machine crew . passing that
way was warned of danger, and
told to examine the bridge before
passing over it. Examination
showed that some of the timbers
had been Sawn across. The
thresher was taken through the
fields in a round-about way to its
destination. The road supervisor
cheerfully repaired the bridge.
The next incident was the.burn
ing of the bridge, so that it was
not passable. Then the officers
made a fill of logs ad brush.
This was torn out. ' Then , tbe
county again repaired the bridge.
For the second time the bridge
was burned. This made the
fourth "accident," and the bridge
is still impassible. Steps , are
now being taken, it is said, to
have the matter thoroughly in
vestigated. Real Estate Transfers.
