BERKELEY, Nov 14.-For the fifth
consecutive time the football team of
Stanford university has defeated the
University of California, the score to-
day being IL to 8.
In almost every department of the
Rugby game the Cardinal men OUT
played their opponents, and through
out the struggle was a desperate one
on the part of an inferior team against
a better one.
California's lone score was made in
the first half. Stanford here scored
six of her dozen points, adding the
other six in the second portion.
Mitchell, Pemberton, Holman and
Miller made Stanford's four tries,
Crawford missing every goal Cert
made the California score, Harris
missing goal.
The crowd probably was the largest
that ever witnessed q game between
the rival universities, being estimated
at 10000. The opposing bleachers were
brilliant with dashes of the rival
cOlors-Cardinals to the west and Blue
and Gold to the east. Some time be-
fore the game the Berkeley rooters
displayed a huge bear made entirely
of chrysanthemums. On the Stanford
side was hung out a thirty-foot BAN

meath, the legend, "Oh, Berkeley,
Amt it. Awful?" The roofing was
quite as noisy as ever, and for the
most part the songs and yells of for
ner years were retained, California

of the fainter hearted left at the end
of the half. There never was any dan
ger, however, as an examination OF
the supports at the end of the game
showed them to be as firm as ever.
Despite the gritty work of the Cali
fornia men they found themselves
gradually worn out by their opponents,
until at the end they were altogether
unable to withstand the determined
cardinal rushes. The superior weight
in the Stanford serum told constantly
against the California fifteen, especial
ly in the latter part of the second half.
Stanford's passing was immensely
superior to that of California and her
forwards did better work in dribbling.
The kicking of the two teams was
about equal. Stanford heeled out of
serum more times than California.
Crawford, Faulkner, Mitchell and
Holman stood out as the brightest
stars of the Cardinal constellation,
Crawford's kicking being excellent, ex-
cept after the four tries. Phleger and
Dwiggins played strong for California,
the latter breaking up passing ad-
vances at several stages of the game.
In the first half Butler kicked off
for California, and after succession of
kicks, tried for q field goal from the
40-yard line, missing by small mar
gin. A long passing rally by Stanford
brought the ball to Californias 30
yard line, where 1t was stopped by
Dwiggins. Mitchell secured the ball
from serum, lodged Dwiggins and
hurdled Butler, crossing California 8
line FER the first try. Crawford missing
an easy goal. Stanford 3, California O..
DwiggiIfs, Swartz, Cert and Phleger
carried the ball for California in sew
eral plays to Stanford's 10-yard line,
but Erb kicked to touch at California's s
30-yard line Watts kicked to STAN
ford's 5-yard line. Sorenson, Mark
wart and Cert in a brilliant passing
rally, carried the ball over for Cali
fornias only try. Harris missed goal.
Stanford 6. California 3.
Near the beginning of the second half
California dribbled to Stanford S. 4-yard
line, but the ball was returned to CEN
ter. Twice within the next few min
utes California, dribbled across the
Stanford line, but in each case Cad
waIlader fell on the ball and prevented
a try. After the last of California's
two failures the ball was returned into
touch at her 30-yard line. Crawford
carried it ten yards further, after
which Holman was passed the ball by
Erb from serum and ran twenty yards
to a try. Crawford missed goal STAN
ford, 8; California, 8.
After a 30-yard dribbling rush Miller
got the ball on California's 5-yard line
