I'lilversity of (ifgon will play 0. A. C,
Ncv. 2;i in Albany. The long drawn
cut and apparently hopeless wrangle
between the two schools has come to
au end and terms have linally been
agreed upon.
This arrangement Is the outcome of
an arrangement between Coach Dolun
of 0. A. ('.. and Assistant Coach Gor
don Muorcs of Oregon, after the Whit-iiian-O.
A. C. game last Saturday.
Moores was a witness of the contest,
and in a talk with the Aggie coach
after the game, he admitted the appar
ent superiority of the 0. A. C. team;
hut said the university was willing to
play anyway simply to end the wran
gle that had so long weiirled tho pub
lic. Dolun replied that he, personally,
desired to get the teams together.
The possibility or arrangements be
ing made on Hie basis of tho proposi
tion offered by the Albany business
men was broached, and each man
siarted to net a line on the scntlnient

sistence on t lie part of the Agrlcul

else in Kucgene with a contract for
staging the games of the next live
years In Portland, made all discussion
useless. The Oregon faculty would
not allow tho students to Incur the

sand dollars which would be Involved
In going to Portland to witness the
contest. .At the same time, tho Mult
nomah Athletic Club declined to give
up ts contract for Thanksgiving
games with the university team, The
terms of the present agreement arc
not what either team lias been de
manding; but they are regarded as a
compromise that will be mutually ad
vantageous. The university's desire to play the
game has been in splt.e of the general
evidence which points t0 a defeat.
Though the records of the two teams
do not show sitlllcient grounds for a
ci niparlson, It Is generally conceded
that the Aggies have a little the ad
