LOSE on A FlUKE
A Rank Decision and a Fumble
Tells the Tale

The story of Saturdays Cor
Wallis Eugene game is briefly
told, and o. A. C.'s. hard luck
was again demonstrated when by
Ia rotten decision and tumble,
the Agrics lost the last chance o1
being able to lay claim to the
state championship for 1903.
The defeat of the Corvallis
team is due to allowing Judd,
who was the main cause of de-
feating O. A. c. against Albany,
referee Saturdays contest. We
have no desire for a finger in the
pie but when the local team had
one dealing with this man Judd,
we cannot help but censure the
management of the Corvallis
team for allowing him to referee.
This gentleman may be perfectly
honest in his decisions, but when
be decides it IS always to o. A.
C's. detriment.
The game itself was one of the
hardest fought contests ever seen
on an Oregon football field, o.
A. c. went down to defeat at Eu-
gene last Saturday by a score of
S to o. The. game was a spec
tacular one from start to finish,
the ball moving over very little
territory until u. of o. was forced
to adopt punting tactics.
Having a strong wind in his
favor during the first halt, Pix
ington outpunted Kerron, U. of
O's. fullback. and in the second
half, ''Pilk' was able to send
the ball farther against the wind
than u. of o.
Oregon kicked off to the Farm
ers who made yardage for several
minutes but finally lost the ball.
Eugene, being unable to make
the required. yardage was forced
to punt. During the remainder
Of the half both sides puntedl
freely, usually after trying twoI
line bucks or end plays. At the |
close of the first half nobody had
been seriously injured, the o. A. |
G. team being somewhat fresher
than their opponents.
At the opening of the second
half Corvallis kicked off to Eu-l
gene who were again the first tol
adopt punting tactics. Several
times the Varsity men werel
tackled behind the line for loss. |
Near the end of the half Kerron
punted the ball to within a few
yards of 0. A. C's. goal. The
bali struck an o. A. c. man and
was, therefore, ''everybody'sI
ball." and before Williams could |
reach it a Varsity man had fallen
On it. Although the Farmers
made valiant stand, Eugeuel
after two fierce plays just barely
managed to push Goodrich over
for touchdown. u. of O. was
not even making yardage on the

two plays which cited her goal.
When the ball was kicked off

When the ball was kicked of
10. A. c. promptly worked it
towards U. of O's. goal, but as
time was nearly up, a place kick
was attempted, but the ball was
fumbled, owing to its slippery
condition. This attempt was not
blocked by the Varsity boys, as
1t is almost impossible to men
ton any particular star on the o.
A. c. team, as each played su-
perb football. On the punts
Williams ran in the ball equal to
the Varsity backs, andi ma.de
good gains whenever given the
ball. Capt. Pilkington played
his usual game, "only a little
more sou Pix sustained his
reputation as being one of the
leading fullbacks of the North
west. All that needs to be said
of Abraham is that Mckinney
more than met his match in ssthe
terrible Swede." Walker play
ed star game as usual, breaking
through the .Varsitys line en-
tirely at will, and running down.

A. c. punted, and even getting
clean over and stopping end runs.
Capt. Thayer was unable to do a.
thing with Bert Bowers, which.
rather surprised the Eugene root.
ers. Bundy also was match for
Frizzel, U. of O's. left guard. I
In fact, Rumbaugh, Spagle, /
Cupper, Dunlap, Root, Wonder
helen and Nash each played the
game of his life.
Both visitors and players speak
highly of Eugene's hospitality
both on the field and in the city. |
They were received with every
courtesy possible and Saturdays
game was the cause of bringing
Eugene and Corvallis much
nearer in their friendly relations.
The fact that we were defeated
by noble institution and by
gentlemanly players, tends great
y to reduce the sting of defeat
COMMENTS.
At Eugene, the men gave O.
A. c. credit for having in Pix,
Root and Williams, as good a set
of backs as they ever played
against.
A noticeable fact after the
game was that the Varsity were
not saying that they had "found |
4 weak spot in our line," or any |
hing to that effect. The U. of
D. boys admit that O. A. C's.
:eam is as strong as their own,
and that they won on 'fuke."
If ever Mr.. Judd came near
being mobbed it was Immediately |
after the game. AT a critical |
point Cupper fell on the ball and
Judd gave it TO Eugene who then
made the punt that cost US theI
game. u. of O. rooters were
many of them heard to say that

Every really hungry man in
town on Saturday made a point of
taking in the new City Restaurant
opened that day by Geo. w. Smith

away dissatisfied. The dinner was
an excellent one-the turkeys done
to perfection, cooked as only Jim
Sing can cook them, and backed up
by fanking of good things in the
way of condiments, vegetables, pas
try, etc., that made the hungriast
man perfectly satisfied with his lot.
The restaurant can accommodate
about so guests at one time; is neat,
clean and wholesome, and will be
kept up to high standard. Try
it once, if you doubt.

AT THE ACADEMY.
Facing The Music" One of the Gre al Success
es Of the Year.

One Of the pities attending the appear
ance of first-class theatrical performances
in the smaller cities is that oftentimes the
attraction comes and goes before the bulk
of theatre goers awaken to the import
ance of the engagement, with the result
that the visiting company and the careful
playgoer both lose by the oversight.
This is preface of warning anent the
forthcoming appearance here of that big
theatrical celebrity, Mr.. Henry E. Dlxey.
No player of comic roles of our times Is
more distinguished or favored In the big
cities than this actor. His appearance
here should be regarded as a rare OPP
portunity to witness the best art that
the native stage can offer. The author-
ties for this opinion are too many and
notable to cite The thoughtful patron OF
the theatre is well acquainted with the
quality of Mr.. Dixey's fame; all the news
papers of the South are adding words of
praise of his performance wherever he
appears. Facing the Music" the comedy
which he is to present here is everywhere
being hailed as one of the very biggest
laughing successes of the year Mr.. Dixey' S
engagement here is for next Saturday
night. November IA, at the Academy OF
music.

The Next Senator.

1t seems to be pretty generally
conceded that Mr.. Burton will not
succeed himself IN the United
States Senate. Never has a man IN
public life in the state gone into a
high place with greater promise OF
winning popular applause and with
a larger or more enthusiastic follow
ing than did ]. R. Burton, when he
was elected to the Senate, and never
has public man in the state sue
ceeded in driving his most Jealous
friends away from him faster than
Mr.. Burton.
From being the leader of the
party in the state, and the chiel
political dictator he seems to hav,
lost all prestige and, practically all
ais following. The Republicans oI
the state now seem to be casting
about among the prominent men oi
the state to select the most avail
able nan for his successor. Severa
good men have been suggested d but,
to us, no one has been suggested
who comes nearer filling all the r.
quirements than Charley Scott, o.
lola.
He is an educated, cultured gen
tleman. A man of the highes
ideals. A man of pure, unsullieC
character. A successful, careful
business man. A close reasOne
and fine political speaker, and I

have the most complete confidence
