REJOICING At BERKELEY,
The Victory at Princeton an
All-Absorbing Topic of
Conversation.
Speculation Rife Regarding Results
to Be Shown at the Contest =
With Pennsylvania.

The interest excited among the atudents
at Berkeley over the success of the Univer-
sity of California athletic team in defeat
ing Princeton yesterday is intense. From
the time the announcement was made at
the afternoon exercises of the senior class,
interest in all other things gave way, and
the good work of the student athletes be-
came the one topic of conversation.
The news could not have come at more
favorable time, as the students were in the
midst of the enjoyments coincident with
the one day of the year given up by them
to pleasure and merriment.
They feel that the financial prosperity
of the trip is now assured, and that
the team, encouraged by it's success in de.
feating one of the "Big Four" will surely
win other laurels before leaving the AT.

Much regret was expressed on account Of
Scogg1ns not having taken first place in
the hundred, but the boys who know what
Jimmie" can do when at his best feel that
he will lower 10 %, the record made
against time yesterday.
1t is a matter of regret among the stu,
dent body that it was not possible to send
a pole-vaulter and mile-runner with the
team. as many points will be lost on that
account, by default.
The work of Koch in the three events
which he entered occasioned much favor
able comment; in fact, all the men who
were at their best were highly praised, and
those who did not come up to their average
were none theless thought of.
Taking the work done by the boys yes
terday as a criterion, there is much specu-
lation as to what will be the result of the
contest with Pennsylvania on next Satur-
day

ton was held at the Office of the home,
800 Sansome street, yesterday afternoon,
President VIC. Burnett in the chair ana
the following directors present: Arbuckle,
Backus, Burnett Blinn, CARAT, RuddlcK,
Currier, Stroll and Fuller. The most I'M
portant business of the meeting after the
regular routine work was the selection OF
officers of the home and of the board OF
directors, together with the various COM
mittees for the year.
Hon. w. G. Burnett was unanimously
reelected president, George w. Arbuckle
vice-president, John G. Currier treasurer
and John J. Scoville secretary. The buld.
ing and grounds committee consists OF
General s. w. Backus, G. W. Stroll and
]. H. CARAT; application committee
J. G. Currier, 6. w. Arbuekle and w. J..
Ruddick; auditing committee-Charles n.
Blinn, J. D. Barnett and w. ]. Ruddlck.
Ali these committees were selected with
out opposition. The selection of the sup
ply committee was not as easily accom-
plished. The entire board was placed IN
nomination for the three positions on the
committee, and prolonged and somewhat
exciting time ensued. Directors Arbuckle
and Currier were elected on the first bal
lot, leaving vacancy of one.
For this vacancy there were the ma mes
of Fuller, CARAT, Barnett and Bllnn.
Director Blinn is frequently quite plain
spoken when things are not what he thinks
they ought to be, and for his plain Ian
guage during the past year he has incurred
the displeaSure of one or two OF the OLD
members. This fact cropped out at the
annual election one week since when an

"What did you do2"
"Stopped to admire cute little shaver

small dog and the two made a picture"
"But about the crowd? ?"
"Some ladies stopped to look at the
baby, then some children to play with the
dog. That made a gathering on the side
walk, and others wanted to see what they
were looking at, and there was soon big
crowd that couldn't see anything"

bic between Blinn and Fuller, who had as
yet been placed on no committe but the
executive, whose duties are nil. Thirty
six ballots were taken for the third men,

results. Several times Fuller and Blinn

SERMONS BY TELEPHONE.

gregations.
In order to enable the large number OF
persons who attend the Grace Temple Bap-
fist Church to hear Rev. Russell IL. Con-
well preach, a system of telephones Is to
be introduced by which the entire service
can be heard in overflow meetings, that
will be held in what is known as the Lower
Temple and in the forum of the college adj
joining the temple, says the Philadelphia
Press.
1t is proposed to place properly ar
ranged series of telephones in front OF the
pulpit and at two other points of the ros-
trum, and at iudicious position IN the
choir and connect these with the other
two auditoriums. The experiment has
been tried before in two instances, and
both have proved successful. One OF these
is in Christ Church, Birmingham, and the
other in Paris at the Grand Opera-house:
In Christ Church, Birmingham, the min
lister is an enthusiastic worker among the
hospitals. In order to give the patients in
a certain hospital the benefit of religious
service he has constructed loud-speak1ng
telephone, connected with his church.
The phones were attached to the reading
desk, the pulpit, the organ and the choir.
After several experiments they worked
successfully and other phones were placed
in other hospitals. Then the Jail in Bir-
mingham was put in the circuit, and
eventually seven large cities, at a distance
ranging from 100 to $50 miles, heard the
whole service at Christ Church simultane-
ously.
Those who are arranging to place the
,phones in use in the, Temple have been in
correspondence with European authorities
on telephones and have received letters
which show conclusiyely that the scheme
can be successfully carried out.
Rev. DR.. George A. Peltz, assistant pastor
of the Temple, in explaining the prepared
plan, said: "The fact is simply this, that
the present auditorium is not large enough
to accommodate those who come to hear
Mr. Cornwell when he breaches. Every
Sunday we hold overflow meetings in the
Lower Temple and occasionally in the col
lege forum. While we have good services
there, there is disappointment attending
it. The people come to hear Mr.. Cornwel
and they are not satisfied. The only way
to accomplish this is by the system of
telephones suggested. Then the whole
service will be reproduced in either OF the
auditoriums just as if the people were face
to face with Mr.. Cornwel1."
