Wolgast Is a miniature Ketchel when
1t comes to walloping, having put out
one of his sparring partners few days
ago while boxing with him, and he is
a snappy fighter, remarkably speedy

boxes with Maurice Sayers. a light
weight veteran, and does not mince
matters in the least, sailing right in
without fear and giving Sayers plenty

| A SSOCIATION football, or soccer,
IA as 1t is known to the fans of
= Southern California, is here to
stay, and many profess to believe
that in the future 1t Is destined to
become the most popular game of the
winter season. The rapid strides the
players are making, both In Los An
geles and San Francisco, goes to show
| that soccer has come to stay In this
| country. Soccer has been played in
Southern California only two years.
In the beginning of the series of 1907
the few who were playing at Agricul-
tural park did not complete organiza-
ton, and when several English players
came south they took a great interest
in the game and laid plans for the or
ganization of six-club circuit, which
was successful in all respects.
Through the able efforts of Peter Nc
Dougall, who was elected president of
the Thistles football team, the league
was put upon it's feet. In the mean
time w. Morris organized the victors,
and their first challenge was issued
to the Thistles, which game was played
on Washington's birthday, in which
game good sized sum was raised and
turned over to the committee in charge
of the funds raised for the benefit of
the injured In the Cressaty restaurant
explosion.
The Rangers team Is one OF the
strongest clubs in the league, and their
first game will be with the Los Angeles
club, which opens the season on No
vember 1 on the Fiesta park field.
Among the players is John McComb,
who is vice president of the club. An
other player on the team is David
Shepherd, who acts as financial secre-
tary of the organization. A fourth club
will be entered in the league at the
next regular meeting.
Alex Sheldon, who formerly played
on one of the fastest English teams,
arrived in Southern California yester-
day and will play with the Rangers.
In speaking of the game yesterday he
said:
"I had the pleasure of seeing the
game started properly In San Fran
cisco, and it now Is fiourishing In the
bay city. The game itself really is one
of the fastest and most scientific of
outdoor sports. 1t is full of exciting
and spectacular plays from the start,
and consists of two forty-five minute
halves. The game is not limited to
men of any weight or build, and Is
very simple. as the rules readily can
spectators. The Rangers desire to hear
from players. and those desiring to join
can do so by applying to Secretary
David Shepherd at 213 South Main
street."
The clubs that now are connected
with the Southern California Soccer
league are the Los Angeles, Thistles.
Rangers and the Irish Americans.
Practice games will be played this aft
ernoon on the various fields, and ex-
citing games should develop.

NEW FOOTBALL COACH MEETS
THE SQUAD
Discusses Seasons Rules and DweIIs
on the Need of Harmony If
Team lie to Be
Winner

''Bilr' Traeger, u. s. c., g. new foot
ball coach, arrived yesterday afternoon.
Director Cromwell met him and took
him directly to the college, where the
football squad was waiting to meet
him. The men gave him a rousing re-
ception, for "BilP' is well known in
football circles in California and Is ex-
tremely popular.
He was asked to speak to the squad
and to give the candidates for the team
some idea of his methods. He told the
men that while they were on the field
they would have to do exactly as they
were told. as his time was too limited
to waste in any controversy. He said
the most essential thing in making a
good team is harmony, and that If one
man Is taken off for the good of the
whole 1t would be that mans duty to
his college to leave the team without
feeling that favoritism was being
shown. He also discussed the new
rules, and explained ambiguous pass
ages touching on the forward pass. He
showed the linemen a few stunts" in
playing their positions, and dwelt on
the need of speed in the absence of
weight and gave few Illustrations to
demonstrate the superiority of brain
over Drawn. He gave many SUCCESS
lions to the players of the back field,
and closed his remarks with the re-
quest that the men be careful in regard
to hours, diet and general care of the
body, and advised them to become
familiar with the rules.
Coach Cromwell was heard to say
that he could turn a team out which
could beat Occidental and Pomona with
what material there was in sight in the
college of liberal arts alone, and Bill
TRACER said that he, In turn, could
make a team which could beat the
Sherman Indians. so things would indi-
cate that both the coaches are pleased
with the outlook.
The athletic field, which was in rather
bad shape, has been plowed and leveled
off. The football field is being marked
preparatory to the first varsity prac-
tice, which is to take place Monday
afternoon. The track is being recin-
dered and leveled.
After a great deal of talk on both
sides 1t has finally been decided to in
augurate a training table. The men
are TO eat their morning meal at home
and the other two at the table in the
college. The table will be supported by
the student body, and the diet will be
under the direction of Coach TRACER.

On the second play, after the next
kickoff, Thomson, getting loose on a

and ran seventy yards for touch
down, after which Wieman failed at
goal because of offside play. The next
scoring was done by Hopkins, who

few moments later he duplicated the
trick and made the final score 81 to 0,
counting Wieman's goal which fol-
lowed. Shortly after time was called
for the half.
In the second half the ball reverted
from side to side and stayed in the
center of the field without further
scoring. If the original eleven had
stayed with the game, much larger
score would have been piled.
The only feature OF the visitors
playing was the fast and aggressive
