.OREGON'S VICTORY
BRINGS Joy TO COAST
Southern California Enthus-
iastic In Praise Of Web
foot Wonders

Los Angeles, Cal, Jan. 2.-Joy runs
rampant through the southwest today
as result of Oregon's victory over
Pennsylvania yesterday, and the result
is held to conclusively prove that west
ern college football teams though un-
recognized by those selecting "sll-Am-
crican" elevens, are as good and better
than the eastern elevens, Oregon, fight
ing for the west, won great victory,
and the husky lads from Eugene are
idolized and their team is hailed as one
of the greatest in the United States.
Oregon won by superior playing They
played against q team trained by a
coaching staff of specialities, while Bez-
dek was alone in coaching Oregon. The
easterners also had special coaching in
western methods and were accredited
with bewidering system of attack.
But Oregon successfully overcame these
handicaps and rolled up a good score,
thereby conclusively showing their su-
pcriority as team, and man for man.
In every department of the game the
OregCnians outshone their game, hard
fighting eastern rivals. On straight
football the Pennsylvania backs and
heavy line were not consistent in gains,
while the Oregonians proved their abil-
ity to use the forward pass by using it
in q bewildering combination to score a
touchdown. In punting, Hollis Hunting
ton and Berry We're pretty evenly match
ed but the easterner's punts averaged
two or three yards more than Hunting
ton S,
While singing the praises of Parsons,
the Huntingtons and Beckett, the fans
are not forgetting Berry, Miller, Crane
and the other Pennsylvanians, who al
though crushed by the western steam
roller, nevertheless fought hard every
minute.

WHAT CONGRESS HAS
Continued from page onc.)

unable properly to discharge their du-
ties, also is set for early hearing.
The fate of the immigration bill, with
the literacy fest attached, which was
recently passed by the senate, is hard
to predict. President Wilson vetoed a
similar bill. 1t is rumored an effort
will be made to pass the bill over any
possible veto.
Woman suffrage and national prohibi-
tion have been reported by the house
committee but it is impossible to say
when either bill will reach vote.
Other important measures due for
early consideration are: The water
power bill, having to do with the leas-
ing of powersites on inland Waterways;
the flood-prevention bill carrying APP
propriations of millions for flood pre-
vention along the Mississippi and Sac
ramento rivers, and the Webb export
bill, which would permit combination of
American exporters for participation In
foreign trade in an effort to meet com

Final records of marriage licenses is

of licenses issued as compared with
1914 and 1915, Despite the opportuni-
ties offered to the fair sex during the
past year there were only 1910 against

LES DARCY WANTS TO
HAVE GO WITH M'COY
Picks On Him As AT Least
Quasi Champion - New
Years Scraps Many
By H. G. Hamilton

Omitted Press staff correspondent
New York, Jan. 2.-Les Darcy, the
Australian pugilist, has decided to end
the squabble over the middleweight
crown that once graced the head of
Stanley Ketchel. The visitor from the
Antipodes has issued an open letter in
which he invites AL Mccoy, he of one
puBch fame, to come out and fight.
Al, through his mighty right hand
that once connected with the chin of
George Chip, gained the so called mid
dleweight championship of the United
States. Some went so far as to call
it world s title and so far as any
one else was concerned, it was. Al
has never been considered a real
champion, but he has managed to stick
right along with the other champions
by engaging in ten round bouts and
evading the deadly punch over the
short distance.
Les realizes the value of a victory
over the slugging Brooklynite, so he
is going to remove AL. 1t is likely Al
will furnish opposition in the Austral-
ian S first American bout.
Darcy has signed vaudeville con
tract, but he insists, and so does Tex
Richard, that his contract has absolute
" nothing to do with fighting.
Mike Donlin is making strenuous eff
forts to bring Darcy and Mccoy to-
gether for one of the carnival of four
bouts planned for Grant Hugh Brown S
arena at Havana. He already has
filled Mccoy s ear full of large and
juicy figures and is on Darcy S trail.
Rickard might be induced to permit
this first bout in order to remove Ne
Coy-aAd then stage a real middleweight
title bout in New York.

NAV Be Two Women in
Colorado Legislature

Denver Colo, Jan. Reversing re
publican control of two years ago, dem
ocrats have a majority of one in the
senate and at least thirteen in the
house of the Colorado legislature which
convenes here today. There will be
one woman member IN the senate and
possibly a woman member in the house
after Il contest is decided.
The chief fight at this session prob
ably will center around proposed amend
ments to the industrial law. Labor OBJ,
iects to certain clauses of the law, es-
pecially the one compelling thirty
days netice before strike can be
called.
Prohibition legislation win also hold
an important place. The dry" law
may be strengthened by bills prohibit
ing shipment of liquor into the state
and making it criminal otfense to
have liquor in one S possession.
