Marquard Seems to Be Through.
"Kobe" Maruiinrd seems to have
outlived his ma.lor league usefulness. It
was figured when he was let out by the
Giants and again waa Uiken under the
wing of Wilbert Hobinson that he
might do a "come back," but the ec
centric southpaw, in his last few starts,
has shown nothing that would merit
keeping him on the payroll. He has
been battered from the box with fre
quency. However, Murqnard's contract, one
of those supposedly iron-clad affairs,
holds good until the end of the 1S16
season, no that even if he is chased
off into the busiies he-will draw big
league pay until October' of next year.

Methodists Threaten to Score
Only Once by Attempted
Place Kick
Oregon Agricultural College, Corval
lis, Ore., Oct. 3. The light toam from
Willamette university was no match for
the alashing attack of tho heavy Agie
machine yesterday afternoon and wan
overwhelmed by a ncore of 89 to 0.
The defeat was the moat crushing
handed out on the Oorvallia field in bcv
eral yearn and exceeded the score run
up in the game last year between the
two teamfl by fie points. The Metho
dists fought gamely but they were out
weighed and outclassed.
Within four minutes, the ornnge and
black had rushed tho ball down the
field by a series of long gains for the
first touchdown, with Abraham carry
ing the ball over the line.
Victory Assured Early in Play.
From that time on there were no
doubts as to the better team and
speculation wus confined to the size of
the final score. Two touchdowns and
two goals from touchdowns were made
in each of the first two quarters, bring
ing the total to 23 to 0 iu the first
half.
Many changes were made iu the
Aggie battle front for the second half,
Including three new wen in the back
field, The strength of the machine was
increased and six touchdowns and five
goals completed the rout.
(aim of 10 to L'5 yards were so
froiiu'iit that they failed to cause a
flutter of enthusiasiii among the root
ers. Diutou. who played halfback in
the second half, uitule the two longest
runs of the game with 35 and 25 yard
gun's r.round the ends.
'Vlllametta Threaten Only One.
Little open play was resorted to by
either team, aside from one forward
lms.1. Newman to Schuster which
utoiight a touchdown from the 25 yard
line, nnd a few unsuccessful attempts.
The gains were made through the line
and around the ends.
illumette could not gain appreciable
yardnge and threaten to score only
once, when Flcgel tried a place kirk
from tho ysrd line. Cole kicked
goals consistently, following nine of
the It) touchdowns by perfect kicks,
missing the other lr a narrow margin.
Abraham had no difficulty in gaining
ground -on nearly every attempt, anil
Millie, Dutton, Nowtu.a and Alworth
were consistent producer of long runa.
In spite of the large score, the Aggie
attack as ragged and fumbles and
penalties for offsido play wera fr-
quent. Preponderance of weight rather
than finished football brought victory.
Teall Hindered in Fast Play.
Teall, the visitors' left half, played
a fast game, but his light interference
gave him little opportunity to try his
speed against the field-. In the 'first
quarter, I.aythe kicked off to Willam
ette on the 20 yard line. They could
not gain and kicked to midfield,
Making long rushes, Abraham scored
tho first touchdown in the middle of
tho period, Hoerline smashed through
the lino for the second touchdown.
Tho rest o? tho piny was in Willam
ette's territory, but fumbles and penal
ties prevented further scoring.- The
second quarter was similar to the first.
I nythe was forced to punt once and got
off a 45 yard spiral. Three forward
pastes in succession attempted by the
Aggies were incomplete,
l.ocey made two touchdowns. Billie
was moved to fullback, and Newman,
Putton and Alworth completed the
backfield in the nonrtnit hull Tl
showed more speed than had Hoerline,
l.ocey and Ahrnham and piled up a'
total of 47 points, gaining ground by!
loner runs find bpinor nonnli?..! lnad I

.Works On New Wireless
System of Telephony
San Francisco, Oct. 4. J. X Carty,
American Telephone and Telegraph
company chief engineer, dreamer of
dreams that come true, will leave her
today or Monday for New Tork, whera
ne wut worn on improvements or "
new wirtdess telephony system. H
declared today his chief tasks are to
overcome a roaring in the instruments,
and to perfect a means whereby th
messages may be answered. Thus far
his system has merely transmitted ia
one direction only.
New York dispatches told today of an
invention by Professor Michael Pupin
of Columbia University of a system
whereby the roar due to atmospheris
conditions can he overcome. This i
precisely what Carty desires in his sys
tem. He wild today he expects thes
difficulties can ba minimized, so that
aerial conversation will be practicable
for miles. His idea for the new system
is that it shall be used largely in naval
w;ork, and shall be placed within the
disposal of smaller vessels. He believe,
however, that one may talk by wire to
San Frnncisco, connect with wireles
and then, chat with Tokio. The wirelese
rhone, however, he does not regard a
practicable for city use, because it
not secret and will not accommodate
sufficient number of calls at once.
