Followers of the strenuous game Of
Christmas day. The Carlisle Indians
are coming to play the All-Californians,
teams that represent the brawn and
muscle of the two big universities and
the athletic clubs Of both sides Of the
bay. Carlisle will line up against a
team that is heavier than any eleven
they have gone against this season.
For the last week and during the COM
ing week the All-Californians will line
up twice a day. Many of the men have
played during the season and are in
good condition. By next Friday they
should be in form and capeble OF Civ
ing the Indians a great game.
1t will be remembered the Indians
visited this city some years ago and
tried conclusions with the fa-lous Cali
fornia eleven trained by Garry Coch
ran of Princeton. In tina: game the
Indians received an awful surprise.
They scored two points. on safety.
throughout that the Indians goal was
in as much danger as the Berkeley
BOYS. The showing made by the col
lcge men surprised the entire country
and gave this State prestige in foot
hall circles. as the Carlisle Indians that
yeor scored against the "blg four
Yale, Pennsylvania, Harvard and
Princeton.
The Indians are coming this year
with a better eleven. Johnson, their
CAPTAIN and quarterback. was SELECTED

can team for 1eo3 He is drop kicker
par excellence, SURPRISING little Hud-
son, who played with the visitors when
they came here the first time.
ESKIMO PLAYS CENTER.
Their Eskimo center is also a clever
player. He is the only member OF his
race playing football and this hardy
son of the frozen north is big and
strong enough to break up interference
and go down the field on kicks with
speed. As usual the Indians are fast
on getting into play. They line up In
stantly and keep hammering their op-
ponent's line from the opening or the
game until the referees whistle signals
the end of the second half.
The Indians will be greatly surprised
when they line up against the ALI
Californians. They will find themselves
up against a team of well trained men,,

pounds to a man. Even the ends

Of University Regents for negligence
in connection with his examination OF
Secretary McKowen's books and vouch-
ers
At a meeting Of the Regents yester-
day afternoon in the Hopkins Insti-
tute OF Art it was moved by Mr.. Ear
that the auditors Office be declared va
cant. FOR obvious reasons" as Afr
Earl was satisfied the blame lay right
there" The motion was withdrawn
when several other Regents had opined
that the auditor should be given a
hearing, and subsequently Mr. Herr
was taken into executive session and
grilled Tor an hour as 10 his inspection
OF the embezzling secreCary's accounts.
BE said he had examined all the
books and vouchers that had been sub

not include the receipts for scholar

the medical department. Then the in

which he believed to be $50, 1000 to $40 600,
or more.
Norman McLaren, the bookkeeping
expert who is making the investigation,
stated he has already ascertained that
McKOwen had deposited in his personal
bank account moneys which had been
paid to him by DR.. d'Ancona for de-
posit 10 the credit Of the department
Of medicine, and that the greater part
Of these funds had been embezzled.
NcKowen had also appropriated to his
own use moneys deposited with him by
students as security against damage TO
laboratory instruments.
Certain scholarship accounts which
should have showed a credit balance
in the ledger showed a debit balance
instead, and had so shown for several
years, a matter which should, in Mr..
McLaren's opinion. have been reported
by the auditor. Acceptance OF dona-
tons appeared on the minutes, but the
income from them was embezzled The
secretary's cash book was always be-
hind date. Medical accounts showed a
debit balance, when they should have
appeared as a credit balance.
