Games Arranged

New York, November 2O.-Wilbert
Robinson, new manager of the Brook
lyn National league team, announced
his training plans for next season at a
luncheon attended by officers of the
brooklyn club and newspaper men to-
day. The Rockies will start for Au-

Games will be played here with the
New York and Philadelphia Americans
and the Newarks of the International
league. 1t was stated that Governor
Tener of Pennsylvania, who is sIated
to be the next president of the Ma
tional league, had promised to throw
out the first ball at Ebbets field next
season. Manager Robinson caught for

the command of the rival coaches will be
brought out in the struggle, as they have
been preparing for this clash from the
first of the season.
Although the attention of gridiron en-
thusiasts will be focused on Newell and
McWhorter, it is probable that they will
not be the ones to star. Both teams have
their orders to stop the rival stars and
under this handicap it does not seem likely
that they will be able to pull off their
early season stunts. In the games Satur-
day Vanderbilt laid for Newell and Tech
for McWhorter and as a result these two
were not as near effective as they had
been in the preceding games.

even then the heavy Harvard attack was
unable to pierce the Tiger forwards for
a touchdown. Harvards fancy plays, par
ticularly her wheel shift" were upset
easily by the Tigers. Without Charley
Brickley Harvard would not have scored
against the Tigers. While outrushing the
Princeton eleven slightly at no time did
the Crimson assert itself as really more
powerful or more versatile than the
Orange and Black players. 1t was pretty
much of a stand-off.

have brought a couple of touchdowns for
the Ellis Saturday. Princeton massed it's
defense against Guernsey's drop kicks,
leaving wide gaps for quick forward
passes. Yale's quarterback, being trfie
green, took no notice of this, losing his
opportunity. This will hardly happen in
the Harvard game.
Yale showed a better defense against
the Princeton forward pass than did Har-
ward. A halfback was always ranging
behind the line to intercept or at least
interfere with such passes. He always
succeeded too.

Yales backs had trouble with their sig
nails in the Princeton game, thus slow
ing up the attack The forwards, though
were always quick to charge and had
holes opened up in Jig time, too. This
will be remeded this week and the Yale
backs will work more as machine
against Harvard than against Princeton
Indeed, Yale has a line every whit as
good as that of the Crimson.
Harvard should be favorite for the
big championship clash at the stadium

good bet when you get odds.

WOULD KNOCK THE
APPROPRIATION
Parkinson Trying to Invoke the Refer
endum on Money Given by
Legislature,

During the early part of the coming
week foes of the University Of Oregon,
headed by II. ]. Parkinson, of Portland,
will begin the circulation Of petitions
for improvements at the state institu'
ton. This information was given out
from a reliable source here Saturday
afternoon.
Who is backing Parkinson is not
not known, but it is said that he ex-
poets sturdy support from the state
grange. The petitions will first be cir.
culated in Portland, according to the
Salem informant. It has been limited
that, unless strong support is given
Parkinson by the oranges, success of
the referendum is hopeless.
The existence of the state university,
as an institution, separates from the
state agricultural school appears to be
the first argument of Parkinson and his
helpers, who claim that the amalgama'
ton of the two schools should take
place by the removal Of the university
to Corvallis,
The report is that the referendum
will be hurled at every appropriation
affecting the university. Whether this
is true, or whether only for those build
ings and improvements will be attacked
is a question. Among the appropria'
tions made were 100000 for a new ad.

United States, and so many things and
such big ones happen to us that we for
get in meeting the new ones, those that
have gone into the discard. In view of
the terrible calamity that has befallen
Ohio and Indiana, we are apt to look
upon it as the greatest disaster Of the
kind that has ever befallen us. In fact
newspaper headlines so spoke of it, but
it is far from being so. The loss of life
is now estimated at about 400, and it
certainly will be les sthan 800 in the
whole district. Bad enough, to be sure,
but we have had worse,
1t is claimed the year 1913 is a hoo
doc, and that we still have plenty more
coming. A French seeress with an un'
pronouncable name and an unblemished
reputation-as a prophetess-has point
ed out that we are to have many dire
misfortunes during the year, princi'
pally from wind, even though it is not
election year. However, her guess may
be shrowd one, for it does really seem
that once Misfortune gets on the ram
page and goes after either men or ma
tions that she turns her whole attention
to the job, coming not single, but mar
ried and bringing all her relations, and
hers is a prolific family, too.
The year 1871, for instance, was a
genuine hoodoo. In that year, Oct. g.
II, Chicago had little fire alarm, that
before it was through burned over B.
900 acres Of her business section, five
full sections of land, destroyed $4,000
buildings and caused a property loss of
more than $2OO,OOO,OOO. The country in
few days raised $75OO,OOO for her re.
lief and in three years even Chicagoanq
had almost forgotten it. The same year
Boston had n $7O,0OO,OOO fire, but the
Bostonese were game, and it did no
moro than make them wipe their spec
tacles and sound their "R's" triflC
