OREGON AGGIES NO
MATCH FOR DOBIES

Seattle, Nov. 11.-Sweeping down the
field for long gains at almost every
pass of the ball, with terrific line
drives and sensational end runs in the
final stages of the game the University
of Washington footb; I team this after
noon at University field, removed one
more obstacle from it's path to a ninth
consecutive championship. The OBJ
stacle was the Hardy eleven from the
Oregon Agricultural college, but the
final score-35 to 0-was one of the
most lob sided in the history of Gil
mour Dobies coaching career.
The Aggies gave all they had and
fought desperately every minute Of the
game but they had met zone too
many" In the Dobie machine. It was
only in the last period that the flaws
in Dobie's eleven-and some were very
pronounced at times-were corrected
and the Washington men were able to
pierce the line of their opponents for
any material yardage.
At the end of the third quarter the
Washington boys had a lead of only
seven points over their opponents and
even the most optimistic Seattle sup
porter did not concede the Dobieites a
heavy score. In the last period, the
Oregon line which had been remark
ably strong during the preceding ses-
sions, was torn to pieces by the furious
attacks of the Washington back field
men. The varsity players shot through
the holes the linesmen picked out and
gain followed gain. The last two
touchdowns were the result of blocked
kicks.
The badly shattered line of the Wis
itors failed to keep away the Wash
ington linesmen who swept through
and got at the ball before 1t had left
the toe of Hubbard. On both occa-
sions Washington man fell on the
ball. and, once in possession of the
pigskin, the varsity backs experienced
little trouble in carrying 1t over The
first blocked kick in the last period
was on Oregon's five-yard line. Noble
went over for a touchdown. The Sec
ond time Washington frustrated kick
was on Oregon's 20-yard line and after
two line plunges, Logg who replaced
Noble went over the line through left
tackle.

COLORADO SCHOOL OF
MINES TAKES GAME

Denver, Colo, Nov. 1.-THE Colorado
Aggies' hopes for winning the Rocky
Mountain conference championship
were somewhat dashed today when the
School of Mines team held them to a
scoreless tie.
The game was played in a-near-biiz-
zard which doubtless accounted for the
frequent fumbling that marred the
game.
The Miners twice rushed the ball to
the Aggies seven yard line only to lose
it on misplays.
Both teams played straight football
throughout with the Miners making the
best showing at this style OF play.

Second Anniversary of the Election
Which Decreod Banishment for
John Barieycorn.
is NOW PACKING HIS GRIP
Has But Little More Than Month
in Which to Settle Up His Affairs
and Shake the Dust of Old Vir-
ginia From His Heels.

This 10 a red-letter day in the CAL
endar of the State OF Virginia.
Two years ago today the people of
Virginia voted by an overwhelming
majority to outlaw old John Barley
corn. and to retire him from active
service In the State for all time to
come.
Old John has little more than one
month In which to complete the pack
ing of his grip. Then he will turn his
red nose to other quarters of the com
pass. and the echo of his footsteps
will mingle with the heartfelt prayers
of the good people of the State that
he may never return to curse Vir-
ginia.
The old fellow will find no path of
roses. no matter which way he goes.
For the good people of the country
are hunting him down. and they will
not feel that they have accomplished
what they started out TO dc until the
ness alone there to give up the ghost
and go down into oblivion mourned
by none.
In giving John Barleycorn the sting
ing blow on September %. 1914, the
voters of Virginia did SO with dull.
sickening thud. They swatted him
good and strong. His few staunch
followers held hopes of his ultimate
recovery. They sponged him and gave
him fresh air, but the crowd around
the ringside was too earnest. and he
gasped and pulped and swallowed his
medicine. This went against the
gasped and gulped and swallowed his

election showed up strong for effective
laws in support of the verdict against
him.
And now he is lettering toward the
brink over which he win fall on the
morning of November 1st when q
brighter star will shine above the old
State. and the old flag will wave more
gracefully, and gladness will radiate
over the Commonwealth from end to
end.
