That there is a prohality of an
other football game to he plavcd be
tween the University of Oregon and
Oregon Agricultural College at Al
bany to settle the 10 to 10 tie which
resulted in the game here on Novem
ber 8. became known last night when
negotiations for the game were op
ened by members of the alumni of
both colleges here with managers of
' the two teams.
Meeting With Favor. "
The plan is said to be meeting with
favor on the campus of both schools.
It is believed that the tie game here
and the showing both teams made
last Saturday insures the largest
crowd of the football year in the
Northwest if another game is arrang
ed. Next Saturday, and Saturday, De
cember 6. are the dates suggested.
Stewart May O. K. Plan.
Coach Stewart, of the Oregon Ag
ricultural College, tonight staled that
he would consider a proposition for a
game to play off the tit between Ore
gon university and his team, but
would not agree to a game next Sat
urday. It is not probable that the game will
be played because of deadlock
which will arise over the date tf the
proposed game. The Oregon facul
ty will not allow post season games,
and Coach Bezbek does not favor the
December 6 date.
Oregon officials are quoted a? fol
lows: "I was phoned yesterday regarding
such a --It said Grad.t. . a-itvi-r
Dean Walker yesterday. "No defi
nite arrangements have been made
but we will consider such a game. The
football men were enthusiastic over
the idea and are anxious to meet the
O. A. C. men again."
Opposed to Post Season Games.
"Nothing definite has been settled
regarding that plan," said Bezbek,
"and I am not in a position to state
our policy. If the game were played
Saturday the team couldn't possibly
recover from the effects in time for
the Multnomah game; and I'm op
opesed to post season games. Be
sides I don't think the faculty would
permit it. There is a possibility
though, that we could consider some
such a plan."
"It would be most certainly a bad
thing for the team to play so many
games in a row," said Hayward yes
terday, considering the Washington
game last week, and the Multnomah
game Thursday.

EN BY BANKRUPT FIRM
FIVE YEARS AGO IN COURT
Five Prominent Names Appear
as Sureties on Bond Given by
the Albany Farmers' Co. in
1 91 7--Law Requires Bond.
To collect on a warehouse man's
bond and growing out of the failure
of the Albany Farmers' companv five
years ago, the first cases ever brought
in Oregon, will be tried in the Linn
county circuit court in Albany this
week. ,
The first case to go to trial was
instituted by Smith Cox and twenty
other Linn county men who had grain
stored in the warehouse of the Al
bany Farmers' Co. at the time of the
failure. They are suing on a bond for
$15,000 given by the Albany Farm
ers' Co in 1907 with Phil Swank, John
Denny, S. J. Archibald, Thomas Fro
man and M. H. Wilds, five prominent
Linn county men as sureties. Denny
and Wilds are now deceased afnd
their heirs are defendants in this suit.
A large number of other men who are
known to have had grain stored io
the warehouse when the farmers' com
pany went into bankruptcy are also
named as defendants in the case as an
accounting is asked for as well as a
recovery, on the bond.
The cither case was brought by
Fred 'Holzapfel and six other local
men for-.a recovery .on the bond for
$15,000 which the company gave in
1906. The sureties on this bond are
J. W. .Propst, S. J. Archibald, Phil
Swank, John Denny and A. Blevins.
The law requiring warehouse com
panies storing grain belonging to oth
er people to file a 'bond for the pro
tection of their customers was pass
ed by the Oregon legislature in 1903
and' so far as is known there are the
first cases which were ever brought
to enforce the payment of such a bond
in this state.
To hear the two cases pending for
recovery on bonds given by the Far
mers' company, Judge Galloway will
convene court here next Friday morn
ing. It is expected that the trial will
consume more than a week.
The Albany Farmers' company con
ducted warehouses at Albany, Tall
man and Tangent. The company fail
ed in 1908 and after a suit for a re
ceivership which had been instituted
here went into bankruptcy. Those
who had grain stored in the ware
houses at the time of the failure have
received their prorata payment from
the bankruptcy court and the amounts
so received are deducted from their
claims against the company and its
bondsmen in the suits to be tried here
next week.

ple who are interested directly in the
outcome of these cases and the promi
nence of the bondsmen and many ot
