are expected here at an early date to coach
the co llege men.
The Reliance Club is to be coached by
home talent. but by no less an expert than
W. B. Pringle, a Yale graduate, who has
been thoroughly tried both in the East
and at home. He gained his experience
in his class team at Yale, and in the sec
ond college team there, the result of which
was clearly proven by the work OF the Re-
lance Club, of which he was the coach last
year.
For the first time in the history of the
coast California Is to send TO the East a
football team composed exclusively OF
men who are members of an amateur ath-
Hetic association. They will compete with
, men representing the foremost athletic
clubs in Tacoma, Seattle, Portland, Omaha,
Denver and Chicago; and at the end of the
tour they are to play the two college teams
here for the Pacific Coast championship.
The men lost by the university team are
Hunt, Pierce, Porter, Benson and Wilson.
Benson has been for three years the cap
tain of the team. His place is to be filled
by Baker. The latter, though a strong
man, is by no means up to Benson's
standard. The other positions which have
TO be filed are center rush, quarterback,
right end, LETT tackle and right halfback.
The selections for these positions have not
been filled, as Frank Butterworth has tele-
graphed from New York positive instruc-
ton against the lining UP of the team prior
to his arrival here.
The men formerly on the Stanford team
who have lett vacancies to be filed are
Downey, Kennedy, Lewis, Harroldso1.
Hazard, and tie positions which they
filled respectively were those of captain,
left tackle, fullback, left end, quarterback
and center rush. The greatest loss which
this team will suffer will be that of Cap
tain Downey. The Reliance team have
had three vacancies to fill, caused by the
dropping out of Whitehouse, right tackle;
Frick halfback, and Whitney, quarter
back. The places of these men have been
filed by Benson, who will take Whitney's
place; Lazwell, who viii play fullback,
and Clemmons, who will take Tricks
place.
The complete team will line up as fol-
lows: Mcmillan, captain: Bert Oliver, left
guard; Sullivan, center; Erskine, right
guard; Downing, right tackle; Vanguerin,
quarterback; Clemmons, left halfback;
1azwell, full5ack; Walton, right halfback.
Mr.. Pringle, the coach for this team, said
last night: I'VE have gotten well under
way, and l think that, with the men we
have, we will make record that will be
surprising.
I'VE have, of course, some hard teams
TO compete with, especially that of the
Chicago Athletic Club, which is famous
throughout the country. Our schedule
has been completed and is as follows:
September % we play the initial game
with stanford, on October we met the
University men. On October II we will
play at Tacoma the Tacoma Athletic Club
team. From there we go to Seattle, where
we meet the Seattle Athletic Club team;
from there to Portland, where on October
Al9 we meet the Multnomah Club. We
then make Jump direct to Chicago, where
on October 26 we first meet the eleven of
the University of Chicago. Our big game in
Chicago will be on November 2, when we
will line up against the Chicago Athletic
Club team. After that we start for home,
via Omaha and Denver, meeting the teams
of the athletic clubs at those places re-
spectively on November and 9.
eve close up the season at home in our
games with the college teams for the coast
Championship. playing Berkeley on No.
vember 16 and Stanford on the goth. Our
men have lots of work ahead of them, but
from the way in which they are going at it
we have every reason to feel confident"
