line plunges, netting number of
hive and six yard gains. Lobaugh
also went around the end for short
gains and once for ten yards. Long
street once went through center for
eight yards. Time was called with
no score made and the ball on o.
A. C.'s 40 yard line.
During the interval between
halves the Oregon boys changed
their suits and came onto the field
in warm, dry clothes, while our
boys were undoubtedly handicapped
by their wet and mud plastered
clothing. Capt. Cardwell was found
to be unable to take his place in the
second half as in his fierce line buck
ing he had I'M ured his head, having
played the last few minutes of the
first half completely out of his mind.
In. the second half w. A. c.
kicked to Pilkington, who ran the
ball back ten yards. w. A. c.
held the Oregonians for downs but
lost the ball after an interchanging
of punts with honors about even.
Pilkingtod made fake kick play
and, assisted by fine interference,
circled right end for IS yard run.
Here was where Cardwell was
missed. In the next scrimmage
O. A. c. fumbled, Reborn falling
on the ball on our 40 yard line.
In the next scrimn1age Hardy was
injured and was replaced by Reed.
The next down resulted in no gain
so Grimes punted and it was o. A.
C.'s ball on their As yard line. After
two downs with no gain Pilkington
punted and the ball crossed our line
for a touchback, which gave w. A.
c. free kick from the IS yard line.
Pilkington Immediately punted to
our 80 yard line and tumble by
Longstreet gave Oregon the ball.
In the next scrimmage Lobaugh
was injured and was replaced by
West. Abraham, the heavy left
tackle of the O. A. c., in two fierce
plunges carried the ball to our IS
yard line. Here Brooks was in
jured and helped off the field and
we had only ten men left, but
through kindness of Coach McMad-
den, of O. A. c., Hardy was al
lowed to Renter the game, The
O. A. G. team was now in a posi-
ton to use her superior weight to
the best advantage, which, together
with the condition of our badly
crippled team, made touchdown
almost certain for Oregon. After
one down with no gain Root, their
husky half-back, assisted by perfect
interference off tackle, broke away
and. though tackled by three of our
boys, tore through for touchdown,
which Pilkington Immediately con-
verted into goal. The Corvallis
ties are certainly an enthusiastic and
appreciative lot of citizens, for i'm
mediately the field was overrun
with cheering men, who hoisted
Root to their shoulders and carried
him triumphantly around the cam
pus. The balance of this half con-
sisted in an interchange of punts
and time was called with the ball in
w. A. C.'s possession near the CEN
ter of the field. Oregon's team
averaged 168 pounds while w. A.
C.'s averaged only 100. The line
up was as follows:
