BULLDOGS CRY "sLUGeERs"
AT LITTLE VILLA NoVc

The following comes out of New Haven,
the home of Yale:
"Villa Nova's tactics in Saturdays con-
test here were so aggressive that her
eleven will not be chosen to fill a place
on Yale's schedule next fall. In at least
two instances Villa Nova players were
detected committing palpable fouls"
This official statement comes from Head
Coach Knox of the Eli football team, as
the result of Saturdays game In which
villa Nova was involuntcrily unsuccess-
full by q score of 40 to 0. 1t will be fair
warming to other aggressive colleges that
their young gentleman representatives on
the gridiron must be decorous If they wish
to maintain the present pink tea relations
upon which Yale, by right of long stand
ing culture and the new football rule, is
IN a position to most emphatically insist.
1t is profoundly hoped that this just re-
buke will teach the Villa Novas a well
earned lesson. 1t comes with no less JUS
tice because not one of their brutal rep
resentatives was able to get within forty
yards Of Yale's goal at any time during
the game. Nor is it material that each OF
the Villa Nova players averaged 10 pounds
less weight than the gentlemen they so
heinously maltreated. That six of the
villa Novan savages are still under doc
tors care in consequence of fiendishly
futile Attempts to rise, after crying down"
Is of equally inconsiderable consequence
in this most deplorable situation.

MORMONS MAY PLAY
THE MINERS AGAIN
NASTY SCANDAL is AFTERMATH
OF FIRST CONTEST
Conduct of Officials in Salt Lake Casts
a Black Cloud Over Utah Athletics,
Although Maddock's Men
Are Not Involved

Utah may meet the Colorado School of
Mines again this season.
It appears that a nasty scandal fol-
lowed their game over two weeks ago
in the Mormon stronghold. The Miners
howled that they had been robbed In Salt
Lake by the officials of the game, and
unprejudiced newspaper accounts of the
affair appear to give the Colorado claims
the better of 1t.
Now that the soreness Is little healed
on both sides, it will do no harm to state
that from subsequent occurrences 1t
looks as though the Miners must have had
a lemon handed to them in their Utah
game.
The Colorado School of Mines is known
all over the West as the greatest gridiron
aggregation in the Rocky Mountain re-
gion, and it certainly looked queer when
Utah beat them by a small margin.
The crookedness of the situation was
greatly increased when Utah came to Los
Angeles and st. Vincents mauled the
university all over the field, although
the locals were outweighed 10 pounds to
the man.
Utahs play last Saturday was simply
rotten as far as the new style of play
was concerned.
It's a safe bet that If Utah consents
to another game with the Miners
the Mormons will be beaten by at least
"a to O.
The Miners evidently have a good kick
coming against the unjust treatment that
they received in Salt Lake, and the en-
suing scandal concerning the conduct OF
the officials at that game has certainly
given a black eye to intercollegiate ath-
letics in the Rocky Mountain region.
The Utah players themselves are as
fine bunch of boys as ever visited Los
Angeles for a game of football, and
oval fans will long remember the clean,
manly sportsmanship Of such fellows as
Cuddy Russell, Dad Conville, Benny
Grant, Tiny Holm, and Red Morris.
The Utah eleven is made up of straight
men, and it is regrettable that the dirty
work of the Utah-Miners game officials
has cast a cloud over Salt Lake.

ELI TRAINING HARD TO
TAKE THE TIGERS SKIN

NEW HAVEN, Conn. Nov. 5.-Five
more touchdowns fattened the scoring av-
erage of the Yale varsity eleven.
Inc regulars were driven twenty-five
minutes against their old second
eleven rivals. who were never in the
hunt Aside from the permanent coach
ing staff, DR.. Billy Bull, Clinton Rors-
BACH Morris Ely, George Goss and Ned
Glass were present to pull the varsity
out of its slump.
Bull worked an hour with the kickers
after scrimmaging closed and Rorsbach
kept the center men at work. Ely took
charge of the quarterbacks. Carroll Coo
ney, the former center, who was moved to
guard last week, lost his place on the
varsity today and may never regain it.
He was relegated to the scrubs, while
Foster, formerly substitute tackle, played
the position with ginger.
Congden was given lay-off at center,
Dunbar filling the snap back place Paige
made his first appearance since his in
jury limping badly. 1t is doubtful If he
plays before the Princeton game. Applica-
tions for tickets to the Yale-Princeton
game close tomorrow, and the demand is
the liveliest on record. There are 80 900
seats at the Yale field, and about 25, 200
tickets have already been demanded.

OCCIDENTAL
is WAITING
HIeHLANDERs CONFIDENT OF
BEATING SAN DIEGO
Since Indian Game Goheen's Pupils
Have Felt Better and Antici-
pate No Trouble with
Y. M. C. A.

Occidental college will meet the foot
ball team of the San Diego Y. M c. A.
Saturday afternon on the Presbyterian
field The contest will be the last one
before the big game" with Pomona,
which marks the close of the season.
Only the players who participate in the
Pomona game will be awarded the 20"
which is worn on the football sweater
and signifies that the wearer is or has
been a member of the varsity team of his
college. Varsity men only are allowed
to ornament their persons with the sa-
cred letter, and no peacock ever spread
his plumage more proudly than does the
freshie when he is able to display the
brand of athletic prowess. High scholar
ship is generally thought of as thing to
be commended, but the athlete will have
none of it in preference to the gilded unit
from the alphabet.
But concerning the San Diego game
The Presbyterians are filled with conf
dence of adding the sailor scalp to their
already we'll filled belt, and their victory
over the Sherman Indians has given them
a degree of faith in themselves which
will send the Highlanders against the
middies with determination to bring
them into camp or die in the effort.
The redskins are supposed to be one
of the most formidable aggregations of
gridiron gladiators in the state, yet Go
heen's understudies had no trouble in
hanging them on the totem pole. The
squabble with the tomahawker5 showed
wonderful Improvement in the Highland
ers since their memorable appearance as
footstools for the high school players
Their defense has been strengthened un-
til 1t is almost impregnable, and on the
offense-well, only the way the Presby-
terians ran over the papooses from the
Sholder wigwam will itly demonstrate
the warmth of their attack. Coach Go
heen has tutored the forward pass into
his proteges until they use it with almost
the accuracy of those pastmasters in the
toss play, the Sorensens.
San Diego is not expected to spring any
superhuman knowledge of pigskin parley,
and the Highlanders think they can take
care of any ordinary precocity in that
line.
A great help to the team will be the
program of yells and rah-rah songs which
is being arranged by owen Bird and
Morgan These two artists with the sui
phur brush have concocted number of
Joy medleys which they are drilling into
an enthusiastic congregation of bleacher
gods and goddesses who will render them
at the big game with the enthusiasm of
Bushes oratorio.

CHICAGO YACHT CLUB TO
BUILD EXPENSIVE HOUSE

CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-Through a deal
closed yesterday members of the Fox
Lake Yacht club are assured a new $780,
900 club house, the construction of which
is to begin at once. Realizing that the
quarters on the east shore of Fox lake
and being desirous of location more
convenient to the railway station, enter
prising members formed stock company
and changed the dream of new building
into reality.
The site chosen for the club house is on
the Ingleside shore, contiguous to the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul station of
the same name, and the land was pur-
chased from the Lane estate. The plans
include large dining and dance hall and
sleeping quarters for at least thirty MEM
bers.
At the spot chosen for the site of the
new building, which will occupy the point
between Fox lake and Stanton bay, an
ideal harbor for the yachts is afforded. AT
this point the channel is so deep that lit
tie dredging will be necessary, while the
bottom is composed of fine sand and
gravel on clay foundation.
Commodore Ware states that the 200
members Of the club are enthusiastic over
the project and that work will be rushed
In order that the building may be ready
for occupancy by the beginning of next
season. The club has one of the largest
fleets on the inland lakes and its mem
bership is composed mostly of Chicago
men. including Mayor Busse, whose sum-
mer home is across the bay from the site
of the new club house.

CLASS TEAMS

SENIORS TO MEET ON FIESTA
PARK oRIpIRoN
AS Have Hard Time Mastering Eleven,
While BIS Are There with Two
Players of First
Team

The Senior A and Senior B football
teams of the Los Angeles high school
will come together this afternoon at
Fiesta park in their annual contest to
determine which class is entitled to the
grfdiron honors for the year Much
interest is centered in the contest, as
the outcome will tell whether the next
year seniors will be allowed to sport a
class team.
Already over 600 tickets have been
sold for the event, and the supporters
of the two classes promise to be out in
force, The teams average about $50
pounds, and no advantage in weight
can be discovered.
The Senior AS have been up against
it in mastering enough good men to
put full teamso on the field, as there are
only about eighteen boy students in the
class. But with the help of pair of
first team men the eleven has been
whipped into shape and will try hard to
keep the BIS from doing much business
with the score.
According to the dope the BIS have
all the best of the bargain, for in prac-
tice they have been able to get three
men out for each position on the team
Bergman and Walker, two of the best
men on the first team. are also with
the BIS, and should be able to do much
against their less experienced oppon-
ents. The lineup will be as follows:

NOW THEY'RE ALL ASKING
WHO IS WILLIE MANGO?

NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-willie Mango,
the New York feather weight. issued a
challenge last night to fight any man In
the world in the feather weight class In g
limited round bout. Through his man
ager, Prof. Jimmy De Forrest, Mango
announced that he is willing to meet
Tommy OToole, owen Moran or Abe At
tell. and will fight before any club.
Since De Forrest took Mango under his
managerial wing the little New Yorker
has beaten all of the best men at this
weight in this city, and has knocked out
those from other cities who have been
induced to fight him. He is a clever
boxer and has a knockout punch in either
hand. While the fight clubs in this city
were in open operation Mango made an
enviable record as a fighter, and he
showed such class that it was difficult to
find men to meet him in the star bouts.
De Forrest says that Mango has back
ing for any amount to bind a match, and
he does not bar any fighter nor draw the
color line.

KILLS YOUNG DEER WITH
A SMALL POCKET KNIFE

MOUNT VERNON, Wash, Nov. o.
While sauntering along a country road
near the city 1. Philips came upon
young deer that was entangled in barb
wire fence. He was able to kill the ami
NAL by cutting it's throat with pocket
knife, after which he took it home for the
venison.
Deer are scarce in Skagit county and
the sight of one in the thickly settled
ranch neighborhood is unusual. 1t is
probable that this one was pursued by
dogs and lost it's way, finally becoming
tangled in the wire fence.

MAY ARM HIMSELF
IN SELE-DEFENSE
SOLDIER GETS POLICE
BOARD PERMIT
Divorced Husband of Bride Made
Threats, Hence He Lays Facts Be-
fore Commission = Reveals
Frontier ReckIessness

F. M. Walker whose life was threatened
by the divorced husband of the woman he
married a few days ago, was given per-
mission yesterday by the police board to
carry pistol for defensive purposes.
Walker represents eastern piano firms
in New Mexico, Arizona and Mexico.
The man who he charges threatened him
is Ed Eldridge, now supposed to be stay
Ing in New Mexico. Eldridge, according
to Walker has shot two men.
Walker says the mans grievance is
solely that he CWallzer) chose to marry
the woman who had been separated for
ever by law from Eldridge.
In laying the case before the commits
sion Chief Kern remarked that 1t was a
peculiar one and that he refused to take
the responsibility of granting permit to
Walker.
Mayor Harper said he understood that
the pistol privilege lay largely in the dis
cretion of the chief.
Husband VS.. Husband
Walker was asked what the circur1-
stances were and said:
my wife wrote me recently from
Morenzi, Ariz, that her former husband
had made threats to kill me and for me
to keep my eyes open.
Deputy Sheriff Herb McGrath of Grant
county, N. M, also wrote me to that
effect
''The fellow knows that am here now
and can get to Los Angeles in twenty
four hours.
1T am willing to face three men If I can
gee them first and am prepared"
"Have you ever been shot at?' asked
Mayor Harper.
Eyes, while swabbing a rifle" said
Walker.
Where was that?'
"In the Philippines I was soldier
there"
This statement seemed instantly to con-
firm Commissioners Fuller and Woodill
could be trusted with pistol, and they
so voted, Commissioner Lewis alone re-
fusing.
"I think the facts should be stated to a
court and handled that way" said Mr..
Lewis.
But this man and Eldridge are often
out of the city and travelling" said the
chief.
Frontier Amenities
Walker stated that he always carried a
weapon on the frontier but the moment
he came to Los Angeles he had put his
revolver aside in order to obey the laws.
He felt, however, that his life was in
danger.
Walker has been in the piano business
in Boston and in Colorado and is a tall.
stalwart cool looking man.
You look like a man. who can shoot
without hurting any one else besides the
man you are aiming at" said the mayor,
smiling.
Walker has several medals for bravery
in battle. He has served as deputy
sheriff in Salt Lake and in New Mexico.
