The San Francisco call., 1895-11-16

Taylor. the Olympic fullback, is injured
and in all probability will not play to-day,
With the exception of Wilbur, who will
not fill the left guards position, to-day s
lineup will be the strongest the Olympics
can put on the field. Hawkins and Ped
dler will each play only one half.
/ Frankenheimer is reported to have a
broken hand, but he is the kind that moth
ing but broken neck would keep out of a
game.
Football is booming at Vallejo. Farra-
gut Athletic Club footballers are IN active
training with view toward slaughtering
their Suisun rivals on the grldiron. Last
season in series of games with the Suisuns
the Vallejos came out triumphant, and
intend this year to hold their prestige.
The Suisuns are equally determined to
redeem themselves. The Vallejo athletes
are hardy lot and although they have
not had every advantage of training and
coaching, enthusiasm helps greatly to
make up for these deficiencies.
1t Is safe to say that outside of Califor-
MAS big four the Farraguts will hold their
own with any team in the State. A game
with the Stockton Athletic Club eleven: is
looked for in the near future.
The eleven will probably be made up
from the following players: Rushline-
Kavanagh, Hoyt, Cooney, Hathaway, Car
roll, Coombs, Cochrane, Lee, Manger;
backs-Scully, Lee, McInery, Morgan.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CAL, Nov.
15.-Manager Eaton. and Treasurer Hins-
dill of the Stanford Associated Students
have completed plans for the erection of
stands in Central Park for the Thanksgiv-
ing crowds. The entire space, except that
occupied by the gridiron, is to be covered
by inclined seating structures for the spec
tators. The expense of putting up these
stands will exceed $1,000, but they are to be
more firmly built than ever before and
will comfortably seat 1900 people. Man
ager Eaton says that he expects every bit
of SPACE Will be needed this year to accom-
modate those who desire to see the game
and he counts on about 13, 600 spectators, if
the weather is favorable.
In order to give the Stanford team the
necessary amount of practice three games
have been arranged with the Olympics for
next week. This series will be played off,
doubtless, on Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday. If possible two of the games
will take place on the Stanford campus,
while the other match will be played in
San Francisco.
Harry Walton is already here aiding
Camp in getting the players into condi-
ton. Paul Downing, last years. captain,

the same week Clemens, Lewis, Harrelson
and Mcmillan are due TO arrive to aid the
men in attaining proper form for the big
game.
Tomorrow the most important match
up to the present date is to take place be-
tween Stanford and the Olympic eleven.
1t will be a hot game from start to finish,
as the Olympic team is in excellent form.
The match will mean considerable to those
prophesying the result on Thanksgiving.
Berkeley defeated the Olympics in hotly
contested game by score of 20 to O.. Since
that time the Olynlpics have greatly i'm
proved their play, and in practice have
beaten California's men by a small score.
The question is, Will Stanford be able to
make as good a score against the San
Francisco pigskin kickers as did their
rivals from Berkeley2 The answer to this
question and the relative merits of the
two college teams whose forces are so soon
to clash will be partially settled by to-
mOrrow's game.
Captain Cochran intends to take eight
cen men to the City and the team will be
picked from them.
Practice has been rather encouraging of
late, but whether Stanford will be able to
overcome the handicap of Berkeley's ex-
tended coaching is question.
