Special to The Herald
CLARE4nONT, Nov. 4.--Hopes are high
now for the coming game with the In
dams at Riverside next Saturday, The
lineup for the game will probably be the
same as for Saturdays contest. None of
the players received any injuries that will
incapacitate him for further playing. al
though the game was fast and hard.
Arrangements are being made for a spe-
cial train to be run to Riverside on the
day of the game. A half holiday has
been granted by the faculty and a large
delegation from the college and prepara-
tory school is expected TO witness the
game.
Tennis enthusiasts are watching for the
annual invitation tournament, which is
not far off. The tournament will prob
ably be held on the 18th of this month.
Invitations will be issued to many of the
best players of the valley. The tourna-
ment is the most important event held on
the courts here, and attracts many visit
ors.
While Hal Thomas is gone, thus depriv-
ing Pomona of her strongest player, Har-
old Bryant, Thomas former playing
mate Is still in the school. 1t is feared
that he may not be up to his regular
form, as he has been devoting most of
his time lately to football. McDougal,
Jennings ana DanlelS Oh the freshman
class are promising players, from whom
much is expected. McDougal has had
considerable experience on the courts at
Belmont school, while Jennings has been
we'll known as a tennis player at San
Diego. Daniel, a former Thatcher school
star, is playing good game.
Among the older players who will figure
prominently in the tournament are Kill
burn, Gally, jr., sophomore, formerly of
the Thatcher school, and Johnny Graf of
Banning. Graf held the tennis champion
ship of Banning high school. Canter-
bury, the Redlands tennis champion,
failed to enter college this year, much to
the disappointment of those interested in
the game here.
Miss Ada McFadden, formerly "Colle-
giate' of the college team, and Miss
Florence Miller, who also wears the scrip
''P" of the tennis team, will uphold the
coed end of the game. Miss Humphreys
of Sierra Madre is showing herself to be
crack player of the prep school.

Many Hunters Journey After Quail,
and Limit Bags Are Reported
from All Along Coast
Line

Duck hunters are livening up and all
of the clubs report good shooting, as the
northern birds are beginning to come
down this way.
The Pasadena, Cerritos and Pacific Gun
clubs have had particularly good luck
during the past week.
DUAL shooting drew out one of the big
gest mobs of Sunday hunters ever seen on
the coast line, and 1t is reported that
nearly a thousand crowded around Cas-
take, Burbank, Del Vale, Pacoima and
Newhall.
The sport was fair and many got the
limit, but only after hard work, as it
was necessary to tramp over considerable
territory to find the game. few car
ried dogs along. but it was too dry, and
there was so much cactus that the ca
mines couldn't do much.
James Anderson of Oliver & Haynes
went out with a larty of three friends
last Saturday night in an auto to New
hall, and all four got the limit. Joseph
Greenway and w. R. Sterling got sew
enteer and twenty-one respectively, at

SEVEN BERKELEY VETERANS
SURE OF PLACES
STANFORD MAY QUALIFY WITH
LIKE NUMBER
Teams VIII Be Representative of the
Coast, as Players Claim This
Section as Home-Dope
on Contest

NAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 4.-The prob
able lineup of the California and the
~ Stanford Rugby teams for the big
annual game on Stanford field next Sat-
urday is herewith presented, together
with the home town and stripped weight
of each player.
California has nine veterans from last
seasons defeated Rugby fifteen, and
seven of them are sure of their places
while two. Fairbanks and Twitchell, are
still in doubt. Stanford has seven vet
erans from last years victorious fifteen,
and six OF them are practically sure of
their positions, while Owen is having a
hard fight to displaoe less experienced
candidates.
For the first time in all the seventeen
years of Intercollegiate football Stanford
has nothing but coast players or the
team. Out of a total of twenty-five Of
the most likely candidates for each f1f-
teen Stanford has five from Portland,
Ore, one from Reno, New, whose home
was really in Arizona; three from San
Francisco, one from Minturn, one from
Palo Alto, one from San Luis Obispo,
one from Santa Barbara, four from Los
Angeles, one from Pasadena, one from
Pomona and one from Selma. Roughly,
it rs team one-third Portlanders, one
third from Central California and one
third from Southern California.
Californias fifteen and the seven others
who may figure in the game before the
finish are all from California homes, al
though Barnicott, from Auburn, has not
been over long from England. The Berke-
ley aggregation is made up of one from
Aetna Mills in Siskiyou county, two from
Auburn, four from San Francisco, one
from Woodland, one from Napa, one from
Berkeley, two from Oakland, two from
Centerville, one from San Mateo, two
from Santa Barbara, one from Los An
geles and one from Pomona. 1t fairly
represents the entire state.
At Stanford there are 1000 man students
this year and at Berkeley 100, and at
each university about 12O candidates came
out for the Rugby squad, and at each
place about 100 have been displaced by
these rival varsity squads, from which
each big fifteen will be selected and re-
cruited. Those named in the table rep
resent the best of the Rugby material
in body close to 5000 college men.
In the tabular arrangement of names

COAL DUST
TWINS BUSY
NEITHER FIGHTER CAN FIND
sPARRINe PARTNERS
Color Scheme Broken Up and Lord
Fauntleroy VIII Match Good
Little White Boys for
PreIlms

Young Peter jackson and Sam Lang
ford are the busy chunks of coal these
days, and with their fight exactly one
week off the two ebony-hued battlers are
putting in all their spare time getting
ready for the contest. Jackson is quar-
tered at San Pedro and Langford works
out at the Maud Junction pavilion.
Sam is kind Of up against it, for he can
find no sparring partners. In addition to
Roy Page and Collins, the Philadelphia
negro knows of no one who wants to
take his hard raps, and the result is that
he is forced to work overtime with the
bag and on the road.
But if Langford finds things hard with
out sparring partners Jackson is in the
same fix. Manager Russell makes tour
of the boats in port every day. and once
in a while picks up longshoreman who Is
willing to monkey with Peters game, but
as a rule there is nothing dong. jack
son started in yesterday to buckle down
to real labor, and promises to be all
ready next Tuesday. The Turk is his
regular camp flunkey.
In order to carry out the color scheme
of the evening, Little Lord Fauntleroy,
who is running the show while Tom
deavoring to get four dark complexioned
fghters for the preiins. He Is having q
hard time of it, for there Is nothing in
the fast black line in sight at present,
and the bald-headed one has about de-
cided to switch to white boys.
Already he has figured on Jimmy Royle
and Jimmy Austin as the six-round part
of the show, and dark horse named
Dunn, from San Pedro, put up $500 yes
terday to state that he could whip Young
Terry McGovern in ten rounds.
AS McGov is considered the star kid in
the 110-pound division he will probably
kick in with the necessary capital today
and bind the match. The fight should be
something real neat, as Dunn is touted
as a crack, and Terry has already proved
his worth.
Royle and Austin met before, and their
return battle ought to provide some ex-
citement. The Salt Lake boy whipped
Austin on decision in their previous
meeting, but the Turko has promised to
reverse this when he hooks up with the
other Jimmy this time.

SUPERVISORS VOTE $4,000
FOR SHERIFF'S AUTOMOBILE
Type of Car Desired by Official Costs
More Than Amount Allowed
and Plans May
Fail

Sheriff William Hammel and his depu-
ties may now pursue fugitives in an auto
mobile. The supervisors yesterday voted
$4,000 for a machine.
For some time Sheriff Hammel has
urged the purchase of car, and main
tains it would be material aid in his
work.
Numerous local concerns have bean
demonstrating their machines to the sher-
iff and his staff since the matter has been
under consideration. A four-cylinder sew
en-passenger car is the type desired, but
there are few seven-passenger cars of high
horse power that can be bought for the
amount allowed.
Sheriff .ammel expressed no opinion on
the proposition last night, and it is not
known if he will take the less expensive
machine and wait until the county can
provide him with larger car, or whether
he will give up the idea of getting an auto
mobile for the present.

FAIL TO SECURE JURY
FOR TRIAL OF ADAMS
Seven Talesmen CaIIed-Four Are
Disqualified for Holding Opinions
Against InfIiction of Death
Penalty
By Associated Press.


SPOKANE, Wash, Nov A dispatch
from Rathdrum, Idaho, says tnat at the
trial of Steve Adams for the murder of
Fred Tyler the state exercised one per-
emptory challenge this morning and the
defense used two. This makes six per-
emptory challenges for each side. Seven
talesmen were called this forenoon. Four
of these were promptly disqualified on
account of having fixed opinions or hav-
ing scruples against capital punishment.
There now remain but four of the original
panel of Jurors and some of these are
likely to go. Six names were left in the
box to be called when court adjourned at
noon.
1t is expected these will be exhausted
this afternoon and Judge Woods will Or
der another venire to be summoned at
once. The attorneys for the prosecution
and defense will appoint an attorney to
act as censor of the newspapers read by
the jurors with instructions to cut out
everything relating to the Adams trial
before permitting the papers to go to the
Jurors.

NO MORE MARKERS
BY SMALL BETTORS
AQUEpucT BooKMAKERs AFRAID
OF PlKERs
cazador's Suspension Causes Unfavor-
able Comment, as Owner stures
Did Nothing to Warrant
Stewards Action

NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-If a bomb had
been thrown into the middle Of the bet
ting ring today at Aqueduct 1t could not
have caused more excitement than when
the big bookmakers, under the leader
ship of William HI. Cowen, announced
that they would not accept markers from
any but the most reliable players. The
layers made this rule only as a sort of
protection, due to the deplorable state of
the banks at the present time. More
than 100000 belonging to the high stool
brigade is tied up in the institutions that
have been forced to suspend payment,
and the layers claim that they have to go
very slow under present conditions.
A few of the larger players that still
have credit have been requested to reduce
the size of their wagers until matters arc
righted AS one bookmaker explained,
ut is not that we are afraid of losing the
money but it is impossible to pay off
cash bets unless we have the ready
money. We might get in the same shape
as some of the banks without the ready"
The club house commissioners are the
ones that will feel the effect worse than
the layers in the ring, as practically all
their bets are on the nod.
One of the most unjust rulings put into
effect by any racing association was the,
perpetual suspension of the jumper Caza-
dor by the National Hunt and Steeple-
chase association. The cause of the order
was that the former owner of the horse,
]. G. Sturgis, bet $500 on the winner of a
race in which Cazador was a starter at
the Los Angeles meeting last year. Stur-
gis has proved to the satisfaction of
every fair minded horseman that he did
not commit any offense that justifies such
drastic treatment. If this association
wants to earn the good will of the race
goers around this city they should start
in and explain why they allowed the
many suspicious races that have taken
place during the past season to 20 un-
| Questioned. When the game reaches a
state that the boolcmakers, who pay for
the privilege of laying odds, refuse to
chalk prices against jumpers, it proves
4 that there II something wrong.

UNIVERSITY TEAMS ARE READY FOR
BIG ANNUAL RUGBY BATTLE SATURDAY

nositions on the team are not assured, as
all of them have hard fight on with
candidates placed for convenience In a
lower division.
Either Ashley or Farmer, or both OF
them, may displace hose three top Cali
fornla forward men. And Dwiggins at
half and Renouf at wing three-quarter
both of them star freshmen, may be GUST
ed by Jackson, freshman, or w. Johns
or Dyer, all of whom are competing hard
for the backfield places. Renoufs value
to the team lies essentially In his ac-
curate goal kicking, department or the
game at which the California varsity
without him may easily lose an other
wise even game to the expert goal kick
ing of Fenton of Stanford. 1t Is stated on
the assurance of Graduate Manager Sne-
digar of Berkeley himself varsity star
in the American game, that all the men
not bracketed are certain of their places
on the varsity team.
On the Stanford team there seem to
be but three places left undecided. And
1t Is not unlikely that whoever goes In
first will be relieved before the game is
over in order to allow an equally good
man to take his place and share the
honors. Holman and Reed, the right and
left wing three-quarters, are both cred
tied with 10 1-5 seconds on the track while
Vandervoort and Cadwalader are both
varsity sprinters, The four of them In
sweeping action make fieeting comblna-
tion of passing backs on whom Stanford
places great dependence.
California's stripped weights were fur
nished me by Prof. Magee, who is train
ing and conditioning the Berkeley team
this year. and they are accurate STAN
ford's furnished by Coach flanagan, are
the closest approximations, as the men
had not been weighed recently. 1t Is pos
sble that they are slightly above what
the men actually weigh. Team for team,
California will weigh only three or four
pounds to the man more than Stanford.
and there will be no particular advantage
in that
CaiiforHii's recognized superiority lies
in the strength and knowledge of her
seven forward men composing the serum,
Stanfords in her swift backs and Fen
toms sure kicking. Where California is
strong Stanford is weakest; the cardi-
nal men know very little of the ground
rushing and fast dribbling game, as was
shown in the manner the Barbarians de-
feated them last Saturday. California is
also cleverer at snatching or batting back
the ball in the lineout. jumping and slap
ping 1t, while Stanford tries to jump and
hold it and is unable to get it to the
backs for a wide wing run.
From all appearances this years game
will be almost 100 per cent better Rugby
than was exhibited last year, and If the
varsities go on improving it will not be
more than about five years when they
will be able to defeat all but the very
best foreign teams.
What both varsities most require to
make then dangerous in any company is
a knowledge of dribbling, and that would
come with spring interclass games played
under the association code, which is all
kicking, with either foot and on the run,
both along the ground and in the air.
with great accuracy of direction.
