Club from playing the championship game

We were robbed in Seattle II a team was

from the Philadelphia, 70 officiate, and he
had been coached and knew his part well
He made several decisions that ara open
TO protest We are now in possession Of
evidence to positively prove that one Of
their men is professional. We also have
pretty good evidence that several of their
men never applied for membership. were
never posted for membership. were never
acted upon. and never paid dues. Also
several OF their men have no visible means
or support"
The chief ground OF protest Is that Don
nelly is paid salary by the club and that
he is therefore a professional The fact
is that Donuelly is employed as sporting
reporter on the Post-InIelligencer and re-
ceiVes no salary from any other source.
The Oregonian quotes an anonymous d.
rector OF The Seattle Athletic Club as say
Ing that Donneily was pad by the club
and SAYS that, If this statement is true,
every man who has played with Donnelly
has disqualified himself as an amateur and
that the games won by Seattle viii fail 10

Thanksgiving day. and he is confident
they will put up excellent football.
The Vashon college men are much
stronger than on the occasion of their last
game with the university. when the score
was against them. Since that time they
have played tie game with Whitworth
college and also won from the Olympia
Athletic Club by a score of IS TO 0. Their
practices of late have done much toward
making the team play as unit, and prob
ably 1t will surprise its adversaries this
afternoon.
This game has been arranged in the
hope that 1t might prove influential in
attracting the notice of the people of Sc
attic TO the progress that is being made at
the university in athletics, and also to get
some OF them 10 make the trip 10 the new
