Bottom row, left to right: W. Matting, s. s.; S. Gobin, sub.; W. Ramp, 2nd; L. Marks, 1, t. M. Ramp, c; F. Motsan, c. f. Sitting down in front is Manager Moisan. During the year 1915 the Brooks Gi ants had one of the most .successful seasons ever known, and a great deal of credit is due Manager F. E. Moisan, (commonly and lovingly known to the boys far and wide as "Cyrus Noble") who was able by some mysterious pow ers of persuasion, to secure the services of that young phonom, "Keene," also known as "Speck," of Salem high school fame. Of course, it goes without saying that Keno is almost a whole team in himself, but our local farmer boys certainly played somo ball, and gave, as Keene expressed it, "Class A" support. During a short season of about four months, the Brooks team played eight een games and winning all but two of them; one of which went to the strong Harrinian club team of Portland, with a one to nothing score, and the other, (the second game of the season) went to the Gervais team oa a scorekeeperB error, as our boys made the most runs, and it waB a good game at that, going 12 innings with a 5 to 6 score. During the season, we played the crack Mt. Angol college team beating them with a 1 to 0 score. Our young local pitchor, F. Moisan, started the season for us with a snap, out met with an accident one day dur ing the fourth game. He dislocated one of the bones of his pitching arm at the elbow, which put him out of commission for the season, go far as pitching was concerned, however it is hoped by the local fans that he will be able to come back noxt season stronger than ever, as he certainly haB the making of a first class amateur. The expresaion is voiced by all the fans here, that "Old. Cyc" will accept the position as manager agaiu for the coming season. The financial success of the team was also very gratifying as they closed the season with money in the treasury after having been to considerable expense. n I iJ A Jrt,'' my . or On their , toes to trim Washington high the Salem football team left this city this morning at 9:45 for Portland where they metft the Portland league leaders on Multnomah field this after noon at 2:30. Coach Clancy's cohorts are pronounced in good condition for the atiray with tiie exception of a few sprains- and Charley horses which will doubtless be torKotten in the heat of the battle. Salem will present its strongest lineup against the Portand champions and it U hoped that a dry field will not cause a repetition of the submarine battle staged by Sftlem and Columbia on Willamette fied. The Salem backfield will be a much more formidable aggregation with Grovesnor back in the harness and it is likely that the star quarter will be in the game. Grovesnor fractured a bone in his arm in the game against Albany but that was only the beginning of his troubles as ho was anchored by the faculty in some of his Btudies and this necessitated a conference and several anxious hours to make up the deficien cy in credits. Unless Grovesnor's sore arm prevented him from answering several questions correctly ne will be in .ho lineup this afternoon. The balem lineup this afternoon was as follows: Hnrtf, center; Boatriirht, left guard; White, right guard; Taylor, right tackle; Williams, left' tackle; Radclirte, ritrht end; Gill, left end; Grovesnor, quarter; Haggedorn, right half; C. Eadcliffe, left jalf; Proctor, captain and fullback. The Washington team outweigned the locals about six pounds to the man with a heavy line and a fast backfield. In the Washington backfield is Par sons, ex-captain of the U. of 0. team, who bids fair to rival his big brother as a fridiron star. Parsons takes care of the punting for the Wnshingtonians and is one of tho best in the league as a kicker. In all eighteen men went on the trip this morning and in addition to the regular lineup, Carson, Clark, Ttouch, Aiohnev Beed, Tatenian, and Watson went along with Coach Clancy and Manager Fry. The game was called this afternoon at 2:30 with May, of 0. A. C, as referee, Amy Houser, um pire, and Dewey as head linesman, That useless article may mean money to you through the New Today column. LUMBERJACK BEATEN AT i Man Trail," the thrilling six-net Fs- OWN GAME BY TRAVERS sanay photoplay of life in the rough, I in one of the lumber camp scenes Richard C. ' Travers, who, as John gave an exhibition of chopping down Peabody, is playing the load in "The. trees that put to shame a good many of the scores of old-timo lumber packs who were hired for the occasion. Mr. Travers' "V" came to a perfect peak, and it was so clean cut that it won the admiration of the, lumbermen who witnessed . the performance. But this is not strange; if one stops to think that Mr. Travers was born in the wilds of Canada, up bv Hudson. Bnv. and had to chop trees for kindling wood as a boy. Ho lived a good many years of his life in the forests before he ever thought of becoming an actor, and his knowlcdgo of tho backwoods more than once has come In good stend in motion pictures. Besides, Mr. Travers' build and physique make him a splendid lumberjack. " lhc .Man Trail" will be shown at the Oregon theatre today. Did It Ever Happen toTou? By Mort Burger P- II fiX)JP H ' ' ' : ' '''' ' p. (R. A. Cronin, In Portland Journal.) There will be no quibbling over the respective merits of the Syracuse uni versity and the Oregon Agricultural football teams, but there will be many arguments over the superiority of far eastern or far-western football. Syracuse beat the Aggies on Mult nomah field yesterday by a score of 28 to 9 before some 6,000 football fans from all parts. of the state. If Syracuse is of the, -best sample of eastern football, the brand they play back there must not be much. Thore. will be little doubt iii the minds of those who have seen ..nshington State and University of Washington play that either could have) beaten Coach "Buck" O'iiell's eleven with its beefy line. The University of Oregon team in the form it showed in the last weeks of the season could doubt less have beaten the easterners. There are those who would b4 willing to bet heavily on it. I Fake Punt on Fourth Down. Any football team-tlat will play a fake punt on the fourth down, within the shadow of its own j goal posts and with 35 yards to go,t must have a monkey wrench in its tjiink tank. And to cap the climax,' the. castoriiei'8 got away with it! And, too, if Babo WHito, with all of his 273 pounds and his six feet and a half of weight, is an All-American guard, what is the blonde German who played opposite him and who opened enough holes for the kaiser's army. And, goine still further, what would Johnny Beckett of Oregon do against a line like Syracuse! If White is an All-American guard, Beckett is the greatest tackle that ever played the game. Syracuse in the best "basketball" team that has ever played out this way. The O'Neill team showed the northwestern coaches some of the most puzzling and best concealed forward passes that have been witnessed in this section. They were almost unsolvable, and it was not until late in the game that the Aggies began to wake up to ueicnse tor tnem. When they did, Abraham and Allen smeared a whole peck of them. Kaiter star around a.iiner. Little Bafter, the squirmiest young ster as well as the fustcst that has crunched the sawdust under his foot this season, was the star ground gainer of the day. Whenevcrjie wnsn't good for from a, to 25 yards it was time for the Syracuse to punt. But there is a grave question whether the Syracuse backtield could have withstood the de fensive play of a pair of tackles like Heckett of Oregon and Applequist or Washington state. When Earter took the ball, it was mostly from a perpendicular backfield alignment to the Syracuse forwards. One or the halfbacks turned cut the opposing end, tho other two ran to gether like a team with Bafter hiding behind them, until they were abreast of the line, when both took caro of tho Aggies' secondary defense,' opening wide to let the little, sprinter through. It strikes one that a charging forward lino, sny like the University of Ore gon, would have tripped this play up anu mane it. almost nil. 0. A. 0. Forward Held WeU. The 0. A. C. forwards hold well enough against their heavier Syracuse opponents and a great amount of yard ago was not made by the visitors on straight plunges. Halfback Wilkinson did not make any gains to speak of off Laythe's tacklo, but bohind Schlatchter he certainly tore through the other side or the Aggies' line. The prettiest fight the Aggies put up was on the third touchdown. Tho visitors put the ball on the O. A. 0. one-yard line and the Stewart clan gathered all of its strength for a final defense. It was the greatest display of fight the Aggies showed during tho tho game. It took the heavy Syracuse team four solhl plungoB, and then they got the ball over by ouly inches.

W.s and Lojus Tied For First Place In City League at .619 The Eugene All-Stars will arrive in Salem tomorrow morning to complete the bowling series which was started in Eugene two weeks ago. In the initial series Eugene pulled out ahead 32 pins on their total Bcore though Salem won two out of the three games. Since to tal pins will decide the contest, how ever, Eugene is still leading at present but the Salem team intends to reduce this lead to a bnlunce on the other side of the score board when they meet tomorrow. The final contest will be rolled on the Club alleys and in view of the fact that Salem has but a 32 pin lead to pick up on their own alleys and the calculate that they will just about take Eugene to a drubbing. The Salem team will consist of Noud, Kress, Day, Laflar and Wilson unless some change is made before the game. The W. 0. W. team and the Loju team are both tied for the leadership of the city league with a percentage of .619. Of the team members Kress has tho highest average with 195 and B.
