GAME
High School Team Takes Contest from
Newly Organized Club by Large
Score on Bovard
Field

In the first game played by the Los
Angeles Rugby football team they were
DEBATED by the Polytechnic fifteen yes
terday afternoon at the University of
Southern California campus by score
of 80 to 8.
Polytechnic far outclassed the new
team, which has lately been formed,
scoring time and again, while their op-
ponentS were unable to do much in the
tally line.
Pierce. fullback of Polytechnic, was
the star player of the day, as it was
he that made most of the scores for the
winners.
The Polytechnic boys showed that
they had spent no little time in careful
training, as they had the game in
hand from the first call of time until
the, time keeper called a halt to play
after the last half.
| One of the strong points displayed
by Polytechnic was the fine work that
was accomplished in the serum. Their
forwards were all a little heavier than
the Los Angeles players, but they ex-
hibited far faster form than the Eng
| lishmen.
Sweet, fullback of the Los Angeles
team, did the best work for his fifteen,
scoring the only try that was made by
the Angelenos. The wind was too
strong to permit of much punting of
the ball, and materially assisted the
Polytechnics, who were stronger on
the field.
Punting of the English team evil
denced that they might have Jared bet
! ter with calmer weather.
The crowd that attended the game
was one of the largest that has assem-
! bled on the field since the gathering
that witnessed the games between the

The Chicago fruit dealers who have
been under censure for selling fruit in
baskets which do not hold the right
quantities have made a confession.
They have declared what many a
householder discovered long ago. that
there is a difference between 'bush-
el'' and a bushel One of these terms
refers to measure long since aban
doned, by all good dealers. The other
refers to unit Of price. The Britisher
who talks of the guinea knows we'll
that there is no coin Of that denomina
ton. In like manner, when the grocer
Or fruit dealer speaks Of ''bushel' he
has no reference at all to that old
fashioned measure mentioned in the
arithmetic. The dealer says that he is
the innocent victim Of the basket
makers deception. This latter individ-
ual makes a nice round basket, with
splendid handles. The fruit looks we'll
in it when bit of netting covers it.
But when the purchaser proceeds to
remove the contents big dent is found
in the bottom of the basket and the
bushel is discovered to be only a
''bushel'' and the half-bushel nothing
but half bushel" One is unit Of
measure The other is unit of
price. There is not a bit of doubt that
the basket makers reduce the capacity
of the measures they make. But few
stiff fines imposed upon the dealers
would soon put stop to that. If every
basket made by a certain firm was to be
rejected there would be a change in
methods in a remarkably short time.
The "bushel" basket is not alone. 1t has
plenty of company. Not long ago
Congressman from Chicago found, on
examination, that many a pound" ar.
ticle contained much less than a pound.
A quart" bottle seldom holds a quart.
A pint rarely is a pint. The custom
has become general in trade to scale
and cheat little everywhere. Even
weights which are supposedly accurate
are found on testing to be faulty. The
shrinkage generally is on the side Of
the dealer. One never hears of the GUS
toner paying 20 cents for "a quarter"
The United States government is work
ing toward a uniform system of
weights and measures. For hundred
years things have run along haphazard.
The trusting public has been cheated
by dealers until it is expected. No one
but a city inspector hopes to get a
bushei for ''bushel." But splendid
equipment has been provided at Wash
ington for the study Of such matters,
and the time is not far distant when
the laws Of the United States will COW
er cases of fraud in this direction. The
bureau of standards has already done
much during the short period of it's ex-
istence. Its influence is sure to be felt
everywhere before many years.
