“ Dad” Convill who was football
coach at Pacific University three years
ago and who has many friends in this
city has been chosen captain o f the
Multnomah football eleven for next
fall. He has been playing a star game j
for the club this year at the fullback
position. Before coming to the Pacific j
coast Convill played with Purdue and
Utah universities.
This makes his
second year with Multnomah.
Many i
times has Forest Grove been well rep­
resented on the club team. Several
years ago Arthur Downs known to all
the old scouts here as “ A rt” played a
stellar game for them at half back and
was one o f the best groundgainers the
club has ever had. “ Bud” James an­
other lad who learned the game here
for years played fullback and won
many games by his trusty boot.
