A fighting TJnI-varsity of Oregon football team that sparkled in spite of the mud that gummed up tho gridiron, smashed through to a thrilling victory over Oregon State college here Saturday afternoon 12 to 6.

Prink Calllson's young men refused to be daunted when the Beaveru scored in the first half, and returning to the battle for the third quarter, strong-armed their way to a touchdown to tie the count. A few minutes later, Mark Temple, stellar halfback, snaked his way through the entire Oregon State team for 65 yards and the winning marker.

It was a groat team that took the Although the county feuds have developed some "hot stuff" this year, these battles compared to the Hoover-Roosevelt and school moving bill conflicts are as the struggles of Balkan states to the World war.

B. EAGSDALE Associated Press Stuft Writer MADISON SQUARE GARDEN, NEW SOUK, Nov. 6. W) Franklin D. Roosevelt closed his campaign tonight with a call to all classes of citi-iens to rally behind the democratic pstty to help bring America "to better days." Tn sneech delivered at the cus tomary Tammany rally with which New York democrats close their campaigns, the democratic presidential candidate said the doctrine of day democracy had already been outlined in the scries of speeches that it had taken to virtually all sections of the country since he started his campaign with a flying trip to Chicago in June.

False Foundation's Costly Tonight we set the seal upon that program," he said. "After Tuesday we jo forward to the great task of its accomplishment and, we trust, to Its fnlfillment." There can be only one great principle to guide our course in the corn-rag years. We have learned the lesson that extravagance, advantage for the few, ultimately depresses the many. "To our cost we hnve seen how as the foundations of the fnlse structure are undermined all come down together. We must put behind us the idea that an uncontrolled, unbalanced economy, creating paper profits for a relatively small means or ever, can mean prosperity." No Bitterness Mr.

Roosevelt said the hopes and ambitions that had struggled for realisation on farms, in cities, in factories, among business men and in the homes had found at length a common meeting ground in the democratic program. "All of you, In all places, In all walks of life, hnve joined in proving that only by a true conception of the interdependence of the American economic system can there be hope of safety and security for all," he said. "I prefer to remember it as a hard-foaght campaign," he added a moment later. "There can be no bitterness where the only sole thought is the welfare of America."

Sidelights Tell Additional Dope About Bis Game Perfect order marked what was probably the most dramntic football contest between Oregon nnd Oregon Stnto In their history. Not nt any time was there the slightest sign of disturbance.

Numerous special police borrowed from the state force and from Kugene and nearby cities merely enjoyed a great game from choice standing room on the sidelines and in the pavillion. Credit for the remarkable control of crowd feelings goes to the student officers of the University and the State College. Early last week the University students organised and passed the word that nobody was to play pranks before, during or after the game and that school moving bills and similar unpleasant subjects were not even to be mentioned. Old grnds even accepted the sensible program nnd except during touchdown frenzies the crowd was as dignified as a Y. M.

G. A. convention. One small boy who visited the game expressed great disappointment that he did not get to see a riot. He was prepared to do his bit for Oregon ho said.

He was much impressed with the Idea thnt Oregon fans as guests of Oregon State should behave as cus tomary when out as company. Though both campuses are gay with signs welcoming tho old grads, not a single sign mentions any political issues. Alumni associations, nevertheless were holding potent sessions on what policy should be nfer the' election. Corvallis folk at service stations and other places of business went out of their wnv to be courteous nnd helpful to Eugene visitors. Most of them volunteered the Information thnt Corvallis experts overwhelming defeat of the Zorn bill.

Though politics was taboo, some thing appeared to be in the bone and marrow of every player on the gnu iron. What a game! Every minute of It. Orcicon came near holding the St (iters on the six Inch line after that costly fumble. It took three tries to get the ball over. Then came the comeback.

The power drive in which Mikulak led Oregon to the first touchdown was just an Indication of what the tenm might have done under decent wealli' or conditions. And Temple's sensn tional run for the winning touch' down I Dignified gentleman who haven't yelled In public for yenrs will be ordering thront lozenges by the gross for the next week or so. Druggists In Eugene take notice. Everybody was sober ns far as the eye could reach, but everylwdy was wet just the same. Wind carried the rnln Into nearly all parts of the grand-stands.

It was Old Home Day for many of the science professors recently transferred from Eugene to nrvnllls, They entertained many of their old Kugene associates In their new homes In Corvallis. Even the new "Intercollegiate donna" could hardly remain neutral durlna the various touchdown periods, There Is such a thing as college spirit even among professors.

5. W) Stretching bis cam- pnign drive into "Minnesota, President Hoover ton. cut asserted the demo cratic party was seeking to "play upon discontent" and wns resorting to "the oldest trick in politics by stimulating protest vote." Renewing his plea that republican economic, policies be sustained, the clue! executive declared democratic victory at next Tuesday's polls would mean "at least a year must elapse" before the democrats could "validate their promises and their new deal." Climax Approaehes The president brought his campaign to a nenr-climax tonight before this Minnesota audience, ufter a swift all-day swing through Illinois and Wisconsin. Only two more major speeches are on his program before he casts his ballot at Palo Alto, next Tuesday. He asserted the democratic chieftains "have demonstrated their total lack of understand! ig of the real situation with which the government must deal." 1 Citing what he called "the democratic program," containing various measures proposed in the last congress, he declared "the nation would collapse under them." The president ut the outset asserted democratic lenders had attempted to "build a fantastic fiction" as to the causes of tin depression Measure Listed w-, The president enumerated the measures adopted as follows: revision of the tariff; extension of Oie tariff commission's authority; sealing of an agreement early in the depression between employers and employes to maintain wages; nn agreement with employers to spread work; mobilization of private charity; an expnnsion of federal, state, and private construction; negotiation of the Germtin moratorium; creation of the national credit corporation; contribution to balancing the budget; creation of the reconstruction corporation; strengthening the capital of the federal land banks; extension of authorities of the federal reserve system; creation of the home loan discount banks; Aid to closed bank depositors; extension of reconstruction corporation loans to states for relief; providing an additional $1,500,000,000 to" the corporation for self liquidation projects; creation of.

SACRAMENTO, Nov. 5. OP) Paul M. Callieotte of Portland, the man who claims he was the unwitting agent of the 1016 Snn Francisco preparedness day bombers, met Warren K.

Hillings in the warden's office at Kolsom state prison today and declared positively "Billings is not the man who gave me the suit case in Oakland nor Is he the man to whom I delivered it in Han Francisco."
