College. Football
Players.
An Enthusiastic Reception rendered
the Easternsr Upon HIS
Arrival.

Der KELLEY, CAL, Oct. Frank S.
Butterworth, Berkeley S football coach, ar
rived to- night on the Northern overland
from New Haven and went directly to his
quarters at the Palace. He was met at the
mole by large deputation of enthusias-
tic university students, who roundly
cheered the great fullback and warmly
welcomed his return.
Captain Ransome and ex- Captain Sher-
man were among those who met him at
the mole. Manager Reinhardt went to
Port Costa this afternoon, where he met
Butterworth and accompanied him to San
Francisco. The coach looked as hale and
hearty and as full of vigor as ever. He
said that he had dusty ride from Chicago
out and that he was glad to reach Califor-
MIA again.
''MY father is or his way out," said
B utterworth, ito stump the State for Nc
KInley. / left him yesterday at Chey-
enne, where he had been engaged to
speak. II e has dates all along the line,
and | do not expect that he will reach the
coast until about the 10th. As for foot
ball, there will be practically nothing new
this year over last in the system of coach
ing. Perhaps we will do a little more
kicking, and will play harder in the pre-
liminary games than we did last year.
The contests that we. enter with other
club teams will be more in the nature OF
match games than for mere practice.
'tBut little gymnasium work will be
done, I think, unless Mr.. Magee of the
department of physical culture advises
otherwise. We will probably do most OF
our training on the field. | Will 90 over
to Berkeley in the morning and will spend
the afternoon with the players getting
ready for the game OF Saturday with the
Reliance"
When asked as to the truth in the
widely spread rumor that he had been re-
Gently married, Butterworth said: 'sNo,
it is not true. / am still leading life of
single blessedness."
