Team Files a List Of
Eligibles.
He Makes an Appeal to ALI Able
Bodied College N n to Turn
Out and Practice.

BERKELEY, CAL, March 31.-Captain
Haskell of the University of California
football team has taken time by the fore
lock, and if there is any virtue in a long
season of training in preparation for the
annual intercollegiate match, he seems
determined to reap the benefit. To-day
he posted list OF 125 young college men
from all four classes whose physical meas
urements and general muscular strength
qualify them for football playing. In his
appeal to them he declares that all who
are able to engage In sport as violent aa
football should for the sake of their col
lege Come out and try for the team.
"We must have men from which to pick
our team" says he, land l will promi SC
every one who comes out a chance to
learn the game and plenty of chances to
show his ability. 1t depends upon the
determination of those whose names are
mentioned in the list hether they sue
ceed at the game or not. II any one
whose name l have mentioned has reason
for not coming out wish ne would please
let me know H."
Though about twenty men have been
coming out regularly for practice at kick
ing and running with the bail for three Or
four weeks, this is the first general call
that b as been made this year.
In fact, there has never before in the
history of intercollegiate matches on this
coast been demand for men 50 early in
the season. The Berkeley men will pat
tern somewhat after the Eastern college
athletes, and train moderately for: five OF
SIX months rather than violently 9or six
weeks or Two months, as has been the
custom. This new planIs largely credited
to Charles p. Mott, the Brown ex-captain,
who is now student at Berkeley, and
who assisted Butterworth last season,
l.
Berkeley Will have for the coming sea
son.
