Belmont Eleven Beats
St. Matthew's Team
Fast Playing Marks Bitterly
Contested Game Held on
School Campus

BELMONT, Nov. s.-The surprise of
the season in preparatory school circles
was sprung yesterday on the Belmont
school campus when the st. Matthews
eleven gave Billy Reid's proteges the
battle of their lives in the annual foot
ball match between the two institutions.
E. w. Nixon, an athlete from small
freshwater college at Monmouth, ILL.,,
turned out a red and blue team that
was defeated by Belmont only after
one of the hottest and best exhibitions
of the new American game this year.
The score was IL to in favor OF Bel
mont
The first half opened with a rush,
both teams playing at top speed. Quar-
ter back kicks. forward passes and trick
plays were used by both quarter back
captains in quick succession, each team
scoring q touchdown and falling on
the goal With the second half both
teams went into the play with a de-
termination to win the game, but
neither side gained much advantage
for the first 10 minutes.
On an end run by Belmont, and fol-
lowing fierce tackle, the ball was
found in possession of ST. Matthew
when the players were disentangled
and was awarded to them by Referee
Fred Samuels. Umpire W.. Middleton
had already. blown his whistle for an
offside play, however, and a long dis
pute arosesbetween the players and off,
Gals over the possession of the ball

George Benson Effects an Auto
matte Arrest in Hall of
Justice

George Benson effected yesterday
morning the only automatic arrest ever
recorded In the annals OF the San Fran
cisco police department About 6
o'clock in the morning Captain
George" the janitor Of the police de-
partment. while busting up accumulated
cIews in the office Of Chief of Police
Biggy, discovered Benson sleeping un-
der the chiefs desk. George ran for
help and found Policeman John Glee-
son.
Gleeson recognized Benson as the fell
low who, earlier in the morning, had
taken nap in the doorway of the
Western national bank and who had
kicked the door in his sleep with such
effect that the night watchman believed
the bank was about to be entered by
burglars. 1t is thought that the man
wandered into the chiefs ONCE with
unerring instinct after the janitor had
opened the door and left the room to
get his mops. Benson was placed in a
cell and charged with drunkenness.

Phoenix Race
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

LOS ANGELES, Nov. S.-Meager re-
ports received today and tonight from
the four automobiles in the race from
Los Angeles to Phoenix over mountain
and desert show that up to noon they
had made better time than had been ex-
pected. The latest official report was
sent by messenger from Dos Palmas, a
remote village on the desert, to Mecca
the nearest railroad point. The official
time at Dos Palmas: 'Kisselkar, 9:43
a. M; White steamer, 1912; Franklin,

The second day of the career of the
Bay Cities league brought out good re-
suits at Recreation park yesterday aft
ernoOn. Despite the cold weather, a
fair sized crowd focked into the grand
stand and the bleachers and the root
ing was lively throughout. The United
Railroads band discoursed popular airs
from a conspicuous place in the stand,
and whenever anything stirring hap
pened, the boys tore off a few lively
tunes that helped a lot.
There were two games on the card
and both of them, though far from be-
ing big league exhibitions, We're close
and interesting throughout and kept
the fans on edge all the time The
Gantner Matterns got away with
the nTst one, TO l, from the Aliens;
and the Transportation nine trimmed
the lmperials in the second combat, 4
to 3.
The last game was the event of the
afternoon, and the one on which most
OF the fans pinned their hopes for ae-
ton. And they got it in bucketsfull.
There were many hair raising as well
as bone headed plays, but the latter
We're all overlooked once the boys got
INTO the going with a will and began
to sting the ball.
The railroad tossers had it on their
rivals by many shades and should
nave Won the game without allowing
Tic oNA4cAS ~ IGSlSl6T more lndn q run
or so, but bad errors in the infield at
critical times proved their undoing. The
transportation gang piled up no less
than eight of these miscues, and most
OF them happened with men on bases.
Little Coynes pitched a nice game
atter he recovered from his spell
OF nervousness at the outset. He did
not work as cleverly as Jenkins, but he
had good control of the ball and was
apparently able to size his opponents
up after they had faced him a couple
of times. He f1elded his position fairly
well and looked the best man on the
field.
The Imperials were badly shaken up
az the opening of the contest and by
the time the fifth inning was on hand
the railroad tossers were there with
TOUR tallies, enough TO carry them
through without danger. The defeated
nine had many chances to make it a
deadlock, but Coynes was on the lob
at the critical moment and held them
all safe.
The opening game was remarkable
Tor the scarcity of its hits The Cant
ner q Matterns won, . to l. and their
lone hit was made by Reiterman in the
NTH inning. The Aliens put one run
oyer without the aid of a hit. Both
