STANFORD AND
BERKELEY NEXT
Freshmen Booters Not In as Good
Shape as They Should Be
So Near Big
Game

! STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Oct. 10
! One week from today the freshman
teams of Stanford and the UniVersit.
of California will play their annua
football match on the Stanford field
This match has been won by the Blu
and Gold teams for the past thre
years. This year the Cardinal backer
have hopes of revenge. But in orde
! to bring a victory to their university
the Stanford freshies will have to take
| somewhat of a brace. 1t is very eVi'
dent that there is sufficient and first
class material, but when 1t comes tc
team work there is room for improve
ment.
There are but two men on the squad
who are sure of positions on the team
One of them is Elton Brown of Los
Angeles, who played full back on the
Harvard school team last year. Brown
is holding the same position here and
is playing well. He seems even more
fitted for full back on a Rugby them
than he does for that position in the
American game. His booting ability Is
the most effective thing about his
playing He has been spending part of
his time with the varsity squad and
will make a good bid for that team
later on.
The other man who has proved him
self eligible to place on the fifteen is
b. ETD, lIl0 GdlI DdCh. I1c IdS A4eiu lNO
years experience at Rugby on Van
oouver teams, which gives him a
marked advantage over the average
freshman. Erbs screw kicks from be-
hind the serum and from dead run
have brought him great deal of ap-
plause from the bleaohers. 1t is very
likely that he will make the half back
position on the varsity.
Two other men behind the line who
are very likely to figure on the team
are the Sanborn brothers of Redlands.
They also have had experience at the
English game, having played two years
on the Redlands high school team.
Another man from Redlands who is
doing things among the forwards Is Fl.
L. Hubbard. This big fellow seems to
have the knack of being wherever the
ball is at all times. His dribbling
rushes are always sensations.
Macready of Los Angeles is playing
a very fair game at wing forward. and
he will be a hard man to put out of the
position if he keeps up his game. c. G..
Crandall another Los Angeles boy, is
making a very strong bid for one of
the front rank positions, He has two
or three pretty good men to compete
with in this place and will have to
work to make it. Kennedy, also A
graduate of Los Angeles high, has been
mixing things pretty well at wing
quarters, but has a few faults to
overcome before he can be sure of his
position.
Another Southern California man
who has been playing very consistent
game back of the line is c. c. Whitney
of Santa Ana. Whitney is not brill
liant player, yet he has proved himself
one of the most valuable men on the
squad because of his ability TO be on
hand at the proper time.
With these southern mon and about
the same number of equally good ones
from other parts of the country, Stan
ford should put strong team on the
field October II. More team work and
fighting spirit would make this aggre-
cation a very tough proposition for the
Berkeley babies to handle.

POLYTECHNIC HOLDS THE
CASTAWAY TEAM TO A TIE

The Polytechnic Rugby football team
and the Castaway football team played
a 10 to 10 tie game yesterday afternoon
at Preager park. The Castaway team
was obliged to use four of Poly's men
in their lineup, as their entire team
was unable to attend the game. The
Polytechnic team showed marked inn
provement over their last game, par
ticularly among the forwards. In the
first half Walton of the Castaway team
scored the first touchdown and Tom
Higgins kicked the goal. Polytechnic
soon followed with a touchdown and
Pat Higgins kicked the goal. The
playing of the Castaway team in the
final half was ragged, and the Poly
technic forwards were enabled to both
er their direct opponents to advantage.
With constant practice Polytechnic
may develop the fastest Rugby team
in the southwest. c. Mansfield, for
merly of St. Andrews university of

EASY FOR THE HOLLYWOOD

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 10.--Hollywood
high school football team took the first
league game of the season here today
by defeating the crack Harvard team
by the score of IL to 6. Although the
visiting team outweighed the home
boys by about twenty pounds to the
man, the home boys were twice as able
to carry the pigskin over the line for
touchdowns. The feature of the game
was the 65-yard run by Captain Taylor
of Hollywood, who, assisted by the ex-
cellent interference of A. HILL carried
the bail through Harvard's bunch and
made the winning score of the day.
Hollywood's men played first-class bali
and Harvard had to fight for her lone

team sustained an injurey to one of
the ligaments of his right elbow which,
during the game, resulted in water
on the elbow. The plucky captain
did not quit the game however. and
as a result he may re out of the
