Eugene dispatch in Portland
Telegram: The result of Satur-
days game does not show the
strength of either OAC or U of O
elevens, as On such a field two
teams might play tie when there
is great difference in their strength
However, the U of O has no excuse
and has the best of feeling for
OAC. "They treated us like
friends" said a member of the
University team, land the gap
which heretofore separated the two
institutions has been bridged and
we hope to renew our athletic re-
Iations with the Oregon Agricul-
sural College" .-s
Albany dispatch in Portland
Telegram: The three teams yet
eligible for the collegiate cham
pionship of the state for this season
are the University Of Oregon, Ore
gon Agricultural College and Al
bany College. Both Albany and
OAC have played scoreless game
with U of 0. From this fact it
may seem that if the U of O wins
Saturdays game, Albany will be
eliminated from the championship
race, while Corvallis will still re-
main factor in the contest. but on
the 9th hand, if Albany wins the
game next Saturday it will give
the local Institution the collegiate
championship of Oregon for the
season of 1922. The Corvallis
team has refused to play both the
Linn county Collegians or to play
eturn game with the U of o,
SO that next Saturdays game will
probably settle the championship
of the state unless a draw should
result.
Eugene Register: The tie game
played LAST Saturday in Corvallis /
between the o A G and U ofO
served to com p1icate the foot
ball situation in Oregon, and as
the Corvallis team has absolutely
refused to play Albany or Eugene,
again, the superiority of the differ
eut teams cannot be settled. It is
very probable though that Herbo1d |
and his team will butt in at the
close of the season and claim the
championship.
Albany Herald: The football
team of the Oregon Agricultural
College has fatty refused to meet
the Albany College eleven at any
date, and all negotiations with that
team are ended. Manager Thorn
son made the Farmers several pro-
positions but they finally fatty
refused to consider any proposition.
The state collegiate championship
IS between Albany College, OAC
and u OF O. Eugene has played
both the other teams draw games.
Coach Edwards Of Albany College,
while not of a boastful nature, says
that he believes Albany csn easily
defeat the OAC On any kind of
ground, aud he is not afraid of
. of O defeating the home eleven.
The championship is in quite
caused by the apparent
fear of the OAC to play Albany.
Albany Herald: Manager Thom-
son, of the Albany College team,
late last evening arranged game
with the University of Oregon
team to be played in this city on
Saturday afternoon, November IS
This game will decide the cham
pionship Of Oregon and will prob.
ably be the best exhibition of foot
ball ever witnessed In this city. Il
The Albany team is in the very /
best condition and will practice
every evening this week. The 8
University eleven will have fully !
recovered from their game with a
OAC, and will go in determined {
to win. The outcome will be a q
problem until the game is ended
as foot ball experts are of the
opinion that both teams are very
evenly matched. c
