TRACER PUTS
BOYS TO WORK
MANY RESPOND TO CALL FOR
PRACTICE
Captain 5urek Selected to Do Punting,
and Bergman for Place and Drop
Kicking Stunts-SeveraI Prom
ising Ones Developed

Football practice over at u. S. G.
the past week has been hard and fast.
Coach Traeger started in the first day
with the usual preliminary work ana
expressed himself as more than pleased
with the enthusiasm shown by the men.
The football spirit is reused and every
one who can respond to the call is
coming out for the team. The can
didates for the back field are numerous.
For the quarter position Bergman
looks like the man for the job, but ne
is being hard pushed by Ickes. The
latter is a little man, fast and hard 10
hold, and doubtless will be Berryman's S
strongest rival for the position.
For the halves there are several fast
men. Among the most promising OF
these are Paulin, Wirsching and Hail.
Captain "Stan" Burek will be in his
old position at full. At the ends are
Geller, Wallace, Goodenow and Hall.
Geller is fast and sure tackler. Also
he never fumbles forward passes. Wal
lace was one of last years men ana
sure of his man and good at getting
down the field under punts. At LETT
tackle very likely will be stationed
Hatch of Whittier college. Hatch is
a big beefy youth and is built as
tackle should be. He is fast and a
steady, consistent player. "Lightfoot'
Charley Haigler will hold down his old
position at right tackle. Charley was
California tackle for two
years. This speaks for itself. For left
guard there are several applicants;
also for the right guard. Malcome,
Rushaupt, Brown and Allan are the
men hot after these positions.
Captain Burek will do the punting
this year and if he keeps UP his pres
ent work he will outpunt anything In
Southern California. Bergman will
do the place and drop kicking. At
present he is sticking them over from
the forty-five and fifty-yard lines.
Wirsching will do the passing. He is
passing them every day now at thirty
and forty yards. His passes are sure
and accurate and he gets them off fast.
Friday, for the first time this year,
the team was put through little light
scrimmage practice. They lined UP
against the prep team and had defen-
sive practice. 1t appeared to be very
satisfactory to Coach Traeger. Later
the varsity was given the ball and they
were able to gain at will through the
prep lire or around their ends. The
scrimmage practice was very brief, as
the prep team played yesterday and
Captain Bunker had no desire to use
up his men In exhaustive work.

England for a time, has been sold to
a firm in New York. He adds:
1T is claimed for this process that
It coats iron and steel with zinc as
we'll or better than ordinary wet ga!
vanizing, and that the iron and steel
thus coated can be brilliantly polish
ed. In the process z:nc dust is placed
in cylinder which has been brought
to temperature of 400 to 500 de-
grees Fahrenheit; that is, below the
melting point OF zinc. The articles
it is desired to "sheradiZe" are put
into the cylinder, which is then re-
volved. The zinc in this process is
not actually melted. but forms an al
10y through the surface Of the articles
absorbing the zinc, and then a coat
ing covering the whole visible sur
face is deposited to any desirable
thickness. Articles thus treated are
said to have an even and adherent
coating, which wears excellently and

High Salaries for Players.

OF all the people who work for their
living, vaudeville performers are the
best paid. Of three-fourths-yes,
seven-eighths-of the travelling theat-
rical companies. the whole salary list
does not amount to $1,000 week.
and yet in vaudeville that much is
paid to one performer who gives an
eighth of the performance. It is true
that a $2.5OO,a-week performer doesn't
appear often in any one theatre, but
an act that costs $1,000 a week has
become the rule rather than the ex-
ception in every bill, while great
majority of the acts cost from $3.50
to $500, and in the best vaudeville
houses no act costs less than SIS a
week. "Chasers," employed to drive
audiences out of houses giving con-
tinuous performances, get that much.
In the good vaudeville houses the sal
airy list of performers ranges from
$4,000 to $4,000 week. and the max
imum is paid more often than the
minimum. Occasionally the cost will
run to $1,000 a week. The standard
in practically every first class vaudc.
vile house in the country is $4,000 =
week, and each manager tries to keep
as close to that as possible. 1t has
been found that this will provide an
attractive bill and yet leave fair
margin of proft.-Everybody's Maya
