football championship of the north

from the Lincoln Hi of Portland, at
Electric park last Friday in the pres
ence Of wild bunch of excited root
ers, by far the largest crowd that ever
witnessed football contest in this
city.
From the start to the finish of the
contest Aberdeens goal line was never
in danger for a moment the most of
the fighting being done in Portland's
territory. A few minutes after the
kickoff Blackwell was pushed over
the line for touchdown on straight
football tactics, but he failed to kick
goal. For time the ball seesawed
back and forth until Lincoln got the
ball on tumble. A few minutes lat
er Cooper recovered the ball on a
tumble and sprinted for 20 yards car
rying the ball over line for the Sec
ond touchdown, Blackwell again miss
ing goal, but the quarter ended 10 to
0 in favor of Aberdeen with the ball
in Portlands territory.

darkness but with the ball still lin

With the Portland games, Coach
Meyers team is given a total of $50
points with not single score credit
ed to their opponents and establish
es them, according to all figures, as
the undisputed champions of the
northwest. The team work of this
eleven is simply wonderful. 1t is
veritably football machine and the
rapidity with which it works and the
tricks and plays with which it's men,
bers are familiar, and pull off without
mishap, are the wonder of all behold
ers.
The contest played on Friday be-
tween Spokane and Wenatchee re-
suited in 0 to 0. AS Spokane has been
beaten easily by several of the teams
that Aberdeen has met and decisively
vanquished it would appear that boys
from the fruit belt have no earthly
show with the local club.
Blackwell Shaw, Scott. Faulkner
Glidden and Cooper figured in the
strong showing of Aberdeen, and were
ably seconded by DeLosh Woods, An
derson, Pennoyer, Vanucie and Moul-
ton, the whole team working as stars
in individual plays. For Lincoln,
Quarterback J. Day played the star
game, his kicking and general head
work proving to be the backbone of
his team. His kicking was the best
ever seen onalocalteld.
