would not take place.
Captain Wilson of the Stanford team OBJ
iected strongly to the University of Cali
fornia's coach, HeffelfDger, playing with
the Olympic team. He gave his reasons
for so doing by stating that Heffelfinger
was not bona fide member of the Olympic
Club. and consequently could not repre-
sent that club by playing with its team.
81 do not care for Heffelfnger as far as
individual play is concerned" remarked
Captain Wilson, "but l certainly do object
to him playing with the opposing team to-
day, for the very good reason that he Is
playing purely with a view of obtaining
information. onsider it snap judgment
on US, and / furthermore look upon
scheme of this kind as being decidedly uD-
fair and wanting in principle"
The matter was finally decided by the
officials. whose duty is to decide upon all
such questions, in favor of the Olympic
Club.
The Stanford team had to comply. but
it goes without saying that more angry
lot of men could not appear on football
field than the ones who represented Palo
Alto.
So far as Heffelfnger is concerned. there
can be no doubt but that he was playing
his cards well, and time will prove
whether he was pulling the wool over the
eyes of the representatives OF both teams,
viz. Stanford and Olympic.
1t is said that he has applied for men,
bership in the Olympic Club. with the in
tention of becoming a resident of this
coast and teaching The Olympic team the
ms and outs of Intercollegiate football, so
that the club team will be fit and able to
compete against any of its opponents in
next years games.
However that may be, it is certain that
to date, and If he should depart for the
East when the football season is over the
Olympic Club will find that it has been
hoodwinked by clever tactician, who de-
serves considerable CT edit, however, for
making such grand battle, physically
and Intellectually. for the club that
secured his services for the season.
In yesterdays game four of Stanford
best performers were absent, consequently
no fair estimate could be made Of the
qualities of the team that will buck against
HefefDger's army on Thanksgiving day.
According to the game that was played
at Piedmont Park yesterday between the
U. C.'s and the Reliance Club team a man
not conyersant with The tricks of the
trade, so to speak, would certainly think
that Stanford had castiron cinch on the
great game of the 80 b inst.
The loss of Hunt, who, according TO the
physician that attended him, will not be
al BILE to play football for many months, if
ever again, Will rob Berkeley of its star
player.
Hunt is a man whom Berkeley relied
upon above all men IN the team to NOW
his opponents down. His place will be
hard to fill, especially at this late hour,
when neither team can afford to lose a

port.
The Olympic men were happy last night.
Though their football team didn't win the
game with the Stanford adopts yet IL did
score against them, the first time such q
thing has occurred this year. When Joe
Tobin dropped the leathern oval through
the goal post by as pretty drop kick as
has ever been made on any foo ball field
Manager Maynard's lip dropped. Three
inches and a feeling of dependency al
most too heavy to be borne settled upon
him. His hope that the Stanford team
would not b. scored against this year was
blasted. The blue feeling became only
heavier, if possible, few minutes later
when Percy Morse. by filty-hye-yard run
made a touchdown directly behind the
goal.
Yet the Stanford team won by a good
margin. After the style of the Berkeley
team several substitutes played in the col
lege team. Three of the men behind the
line were such and Spanlding, one of the
end rushers. Consequently there was the
lack of that splendid interference fol
which Stanford is noted. Their inter
ference yesterday was full of holes.
Otherwise they played good game, espe
cially in the first half. Toward the enc
they held off somewhat and played less
quickly and surely. Abe Lewis did some
fine running and Captain Wilson som,
