Citrus Belt College Expects to Be

"Football is not game for molly
coddles." said President Roosevelt.
That seems also to be the sentiment or
the various heads of the southern
California colleges, although not ex-
pressed in so many words. with tne
announcement that President Baer Oh
Occidental is attempting to bring 10
California one of the best 1ootpai
coaches in the country came the state
ment last night from Pomona coiiege
that President Gates OF that colege
already has secured the services OF
w. L. Stanton, former coach OF the
Pratt institute of New YORK city.
Stanton is about 80 years old and
was recommended to the Pomona pres
ident by Head Trainer Williams OF the
University of Wisconsin, who said:
"Stanton is one of the coming young
men of the athletic world, and during
his stay at the Pratt institute has
had, to my personal knowledge, some
very tempting offers from several large
eastern and western colleges.
Stanton is a graduate of Dickinson
college of Pennsylvania, was mem
ber of that football team and later
took the position as coach of the Ham
ilton university of New York. DR..
Sumner of Pomona college said to a
Herald representative last night:
IT am glad to hear that Dr. Baer Is
negotiating with Mr.. Gates and hope
that he procures his services. Our own
coach will arrive at Pomona about
the middle of September, and from
then on we expect to do things in the
football world of Southern California.

Among the many recitals of the
cruelty and brutality of the dog catch
ers received daily at The Herald office
is this story related by Mrs. Elizabeth
Hunt of 726 Kohler street:
81 was walking down Central avenue
with my fox terrier. According to the
ordinance, 1 suppose, they had right
to take my dog as l had not yet taken
out this years license, but they had
no right to knock me down while they
were doing it. / am 81 years old, yet
not a single man who stood about came
to my assistance. l was thrown nat
on the sidewalk and no one offered to
help me to my feet. l have small re-
gard for the men of Los Angeles who
would stand by and watch two boys
with nickel badges treat an old wo-
man as they did. My finger was cut
in the struggle and l suffered severely
from the shock A police officer came
up and advised me to have the men ar
rested. They had gone by that time,
so | determined to go straight to the
MAYOR to see what could be done.
Mayor Harper told me that he
would call up the chief of police and
have both of the brutes removed. Last
week l saw the same two on the dog

RIFLE EXPERTS
IN COMPETITION
SHOOTING FOR PLACES ON
STATE TEAM
TARGET PRACTICE STARTED ON
EAsTLAKE RANGE
Col. Smith, in Charge, Issues Orders
That Scores Are Not to Be Given
out Until Final Day-AIl
Conditions Perfect

The state rifle range, near Eastlake
park, yesterday presented a busy scene
to the crowd of visitors who had jour-
neyed to the range to witness the first
days shooting of the men who are at
tempting to qualify for the team that
will represent the state of California at
the national shoot at Camp Perry,
Ohio, which will be held during the lat
ter part of August. Scores made yes
terday were ordered withheld by the
colonel in charge and are not available
for publication.
The first firing commenced at $3.50
o'clock and was the slow fire at the
200-yard target, which soon was com
pleted. This was followed by shooting
at the 600-yard target, and only the
first half was completed. While some
of the men were shooting at the 500
yard target Col. Smith, range officer.
ordered the rapid fire at the 20O-yard
target to proceed, and at O'Clock the
men still were shooting the first half.
Shooting will be resumed this morning
on the 600-yard slow fire target and
the rapid fire at the 200-yard target
From a spectators point of view, the
weather conditions almost were per-
feet, with bright skies and a good
breeze to temper the heat. Up to 3
O'Clock, however, the heat waves and
"f1uky" wind puzzled the marksmen
considerably and were responsible for
many poor scores turned in by those
who shot up to that time. After 3
o'clock conditions improved, the light
being more steady and the wind less
changeable, and from that time up to
o'clock the old-timers got in their
good work.
Col. Smith gave orders that the days
scores should not be made public until
the final days shoot was ended, assur-
ing the men that conditions tomorrow
may change absolutely and that those
men who had good scores today may
have the reverse tomorrow, and vice
versa.

The two-story frame residence at 1872
Bridge street, owned by G. M. Nc
Kenzie and occupied by A. w. Clark,
was totally destroyed with its contents
by a fire which started at 10 O'Clock
last night from the explosion of a coal
oil stove, entailing a loss of $4,000.
Mrs. Clark did not attempt to extin-
in the rear of the house, heating her
irons on a coal oil stove which was
sitting on top of the kitchen range.
In some manner the oil reservoir OF
the stove caught fire and a moment
later exploded, scattering the burning
oil throughout the room.
Mrs Clark did not attempt to extin-
guish the blaze, but seized her baby,
which was lying in crib, and ran
from the house.
she gave the alarm at once and two
calls were sent in from box 124.
Too Late to Save
Owing to the long run by the fire
apparatus, the house was in full blaze
when the firemen arrived, and 1t was
found impossible to save anything but
a shell of the building.
The contents of the building, owned
by Mr.. Clark, were valued at $1,000 and
the building was valued at $4,000. Both
losses are partly covered by insurance.
Spontaneous cOmDuStion caused lue
blazing up of pile of oil-soaked waste
in the rear of the plumbing shop of

Mr.. Franklin, who was at work in
the shop. seized the waste and threw
it from the open window. thus prevent
ing the building catching fire. Both
of his hands were badly burned and he
was taken to the Edminston drug store
at Thirty-fifth street, where remedies
were applied.

of the matter, Slattery did make some

that he was a pupil of silk O'Lough-

New York Boy Also Gets His First
Local Match in Bout Arranged
with Montana Kid for Night
of August 21

Those fight fans who went out TO
the South Side Athletic club yesterday
afternoon to see Packy Mcfarland
work out for his fight Friday night
with Phil Brock were treated to an
unusual stunt in the ring IN the nature
of q Knockout After Packy had COM
pleted his boxing bouts Young otto
went on for his daily workout boxing
with Joe williams. Some Of the spec
tators had been kidding the knockout
boy regarding his tame efforts IN
training and this had the desired eff
feet He famed into his sparring
partner as If he intended beating him
to death.
The first round came dangerously
near ending in a knockout and they
went at it so fiercely in the second
round that no other result could OBJ
tain than a knockout. 1t came sud
denly at that. Otto caught Williams
with a short right hook flush TO the
chin in close quarters and Williams
went to the mat and was cleanly
knocked out. He was revived in a
hurry by the excited training assis-
tants and this ended the afternoon
workout.
An appropriate sequel TO this
workout was the announcement
that Otto and Montana Kid had
been matched for twenty-five rounds
as one of the two main events
of a double-header card that the JEFF
fries Athletic club will stage August

having twirled for several months for
the Santa Barbara team, where he
won "a home" for himself by being
the best batter on the team. Sam is
only 10 years of age and is fast on
his toes and never misses a chance to
make good in all stages of the game.
In all the games which he has taken
