Some More Portland Dope.

The dopesters of Portland. Ore. have
just made the wonderful discovery that
Fred Moulien has made worlds rec
ord in the kicking line. The feat in
question was the kicking of field goal
from placement from the fifty-yard
line In a game against the Idaho uni
yersity last Saturday. Moullen Is the
captain of the University OF Oregon,
and his performance indicates that he
is a kicker of some class. But when it
comes to worlds record the kick is
hardly in the same class with the one
Fred Bennion made on Cummings field
in this city four years ago.. AT that
time Bennion kicked a goal from the
sixty-yard line from placement This
kick was at that time, and still stands.
as the worlds record. This information
is given out by such men as Walter
Camp and Coach West both of whom
were notified of the kick at the time
The dopesters in the northwest are
great on breaking records. the most
notable of which was the 80 seconds
for the hundred yards by Dan Kelley.
The run of Kelley's may have been fast,
and the kick of Moullen's was good
one, but the record claim in each in
stance is omen to argument

both teams have suffered defeat at the
hands of all the Colorado teams they
have met, and no matter what the out

rest of the year. Utah is entirely out
of the running for the championship.
The varsity has but one more game
TO play with Colorado team, and that
is against Boulder. The Colorado Uni
versity defeated the Colorado College
team last week by a score Of IA to 0.
According to reports of the game, it
was easy. Colorado College defeated
the Utah school by a score of Is to 4.
Utah was at its best and was easy

il is hard TO figure out how Utah has

white win, they will still be a long way

The selection Of John F. Tobin of this

JEFF SAYS A FEW THINGS
Claims There Are Only Four White
Fighters IN Ring Who Have
His Confidence.

Los Angeles. Cal. Nov. Jim Jef-
fries, the big chief OF the fight game,
says that the boxing game in New
York, which only allows the boys to go
six rounds. is something. like man
who has banquet appetite and then
finds that he is only getting a lunch
counter meal.
There are four white fighters before
the public that 1 have great confidence
in" says the big fellow. They are
Billy Papke. Battling Nelson, Abe At
tell and little Johnny CoulOn. 1t makes
no difference when this quartette starts,
you are sure 10 get run for your
money. Papke has demonstrated that
he has a cool way of doing business
whenever he starts. and In addition TO
that ne uses his brains. and he has
everything which is needed in the max
ing of a champion. He is also as game
as they make them. and il will take
real strong boy to take the title away
from him.
Then take the Dane There Is a
warm spot in my heart for this boy
Nelson never stidestepped anyone, TO
matter how strong he thought the 9TH
er fellow was. When one looks over
the Danes record with some care and
finds that he has beaten the following
men, it makes you look up and think
some: Joe Cans, Jimmy Britt. Abe At
tell. Boer UnholZ. Terry McGovern, Kid
Sullivan, Young Corbett. Aurelia Her
rerax Eddie Hanlon. Martin Candle.
Clarence English, Charlie Neary and
George Memsic.
