AGGIES ARE BEATEN
BY SYRACUSE BY THE
SCORE OF 2S TO 0
CRACK EASTERN ELEVEN RUSH

OFF THEIR FEET.
Visitors Outclass o. \. G, at Almost
Every Point Of the Game-Despite
Efforts of Agg.es to pile Up a
Score, visitors Dazzle Them BY
Swift Open Plays.

PORTLAND, Ore, Dec Like a
certain storied Frenchman. the ore
gon Aggies took in too much terri.
tory 1t was all right for them TO
jump half way eastward and drub the
crack Michigan Aggies, but when
they challenged the Syracuse Univer-
sity football bunch they went too far
east. Yesterday on Multnomah Field
Syracuse made a primrose romp out
of this big intersectional game. de-
feating the oregon Aggies, $50.
Fourteen of these points were amass-
ed by the Atlantic coast athletes in
the first quarter before the Aggies
even had their hands on the ball
Aggie fumbles in the third quarter
on their own 32 and 24-yard lines,
presented Syracuse with the other IA
points.
This much must be said in defense
of the oregon team, it was a badly
shattered and crippled aggregation
that Coach Stewart put onto the
field. Yeager and Schuster were out
of the game entirely, and Laythe and
Abraham were not in good physical
form. Syracuse produced 200
pound forward line, however, and a
shifty set Of backs, equipped with
1915 model formations, and it is
sure bet that Syracuse could have
whaled the Corvallis lads even at
their fullest muster.
So far as fundamentals go, the
Oregon Aggies were not weak. save
in respect Of holding the ball. When
the westerners could get in front of
play the Syracuse advance was usu-
ally stopped. Red" Wilkinson, all
eastern halfback, was usually check.

line plunges. But, when 1t came to
breaking up masked plays-the pass
es and the criss-cross double-pass a.
tack that Washington state used so
effectively this fall under Bill Deltz,
and which Oregon used to batter the
beefy Multnomah club on Thanksgiy-
ing day, the Aggies were out-maneu-
vered, out-blocked and sometimes al
most pushed out Of the ownship.

A PREPAREDNESS MES
SAGE

m T is known unofficially, but
with a fair degree of Ger.
tainty, that President Viii.
son is now engaged on, if he
has not already finished, his
message to the new congress
shortly to be convened, and
that the burden of that eagerly
awaited paper is to be the ma.
tional defence against-not for
war.
The president will doubtless
ask for a stronger army and
for a larger and more com
pletely manned navy. The
little men as to both branch
es will have their fling against
the safe and sane proposition,
but they will not prevail, be-
cause the opinion of the Am.
erican people is not with them.
If there is one outstanding
fact as to public sentiment that
has been made clear by the
European war and its connec-
ton, both sentimental and
practical, with this country, it
is that the citizens of the Uni
ted States in overwhelming
numbers want to be reason
ably assured against attack
by any possible foreign foes.
That does not imply that they
want war, or want militarism
They do want safety, and they
mean to have it.
The president will perhaps
60 still further, as he may we'll
do, and consider the whole
question of the federal resour-
ces. There are other defence
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1915-12-02

elements besides the army and
the navy to be taken into ac-
count Federal coal, federal
oil, federal water power, fed
eral plants for munitions and
tor Shipbuilding-in short,
the whole subject of conserva.
tion-are part and parcel OF
the national defence. The
country must be in a position
to mobilize quickly and effec-
lively, all of its resources.
The president will, of
course, dwell strongly on the
non-partisanness of this ques-
tion of the protection of the
United States against exterior
assaults. He will not make it
democratic doctrine. He will
show in his clear and forceful
way that it is not a matter for
party division, or party oppo-
sition or party credit. Party
stops at the waters edge, and
it is there that our national de-
fence must begin.
If we are not wholly wrong
in our expectations, this forth.
coming message will be one of
the most momentous and epoch
that has come from
any president in a generation.
