erything was against them. Although
the Presbyterians outweigh them quite
q bit, they are expected to make a hard
fight. Several members of Throop's
championship team of three years ago
are playing with them now.
Credentials lineup will be changed
slightly on account of injuries to some
of the men. Collins probably will not
play, being laid up with a sore foot.
Captain Wieman, after a solid weeks
rest, probably will get into the game,
il only for a short period. In their
practice last night alongside of the
miners, the Presbyterians showed up
well, being almost as speedy in the eX-
ecution of plays, although not quite as
accurate.
Lineup of Occidental will be: Vie
man (captain), right end; McDermont,
right tackle; Smart, right guard; Con-
rad, center; H. Thomson, left guard;
Landreth, left tackle; Hopkins, left
right half; Johnson, left half; F.

Long Beach today to play the Long

promises to be very close, as Pasadena
high beat both of these schools by
almost the same score. The props are

HOLLYWOOD HIGH ELEVEN
TO ENTERTAIN WHITTIER

Hollywood high school will play its
fifth football game today on the nome
gridiron against Whittier high. Holly
wood thus far has an excellent record,
having defeated the Occidental fresh
men, Harvard military bunch, the Cal
ifornia military eleven and tied the
Long Beach team. Todays contest
probably win be a very fast affair, as
the home boys are in splendid condi-
ton.
Capt. Taylor, who was out of last
Saturdays contest, will hold down his
old position at quarter, which will
greatly strengthen the home eleven.
Taylor has made some spectacular
plays in all of the contests which he
has entered this season. In the Occi-
dental battle he made beautiful 40
yard run, and in the Harvard contest
he tore off a great 65-yard touchdown.
James and A. Hill, the speedy ends,
will he In the contest. Tuller, the cleV-
or halfback, who had his nose broken
a week ago, will be unable to play
Last year Hollywood piled the score
up very high against Whittier. and to-
day the boys expect to do the same
stunt. The contest will be called at 10
O'Clock in the morning, owing to the
fact that some Of the team wish to at
tend the big st Vincent Colorado bat
tie in the afternoon.
The Hollywood lineup will be in the
following order: Priester, CENTER; A.
IIill. right end; James, left end; Bush
nell, right tackle; Peters, left tackle;
Grass, right guard; Temple, left guard;

TWO JIMS ARE
WORKING HARD
BARRY AND FLYNN NEARING
CONDITION
Fear of Arrest Prevented Them from
Doing Their Best in Former Scrap,
but They VIII Have No Him
drance Next Friday

With only one week left in which to-
get into condition for what each prom
ises will be a real fight, the two Jim
mies-Barry and Flynn-are entering
upon a more strenuous schedule of
daily work, and henceforth until next
Thursday afternoon there will be plen-
ty of entertainment at either camp for
the fans who go out to see these big
husl1ies work.
This should make a most entertaining
scrap. Barry and Flynn recently bat
tied over the same distance to a draw,
but a sheriff was at ringside with half
a hundred deputies as his posse, ready
to hop into the ring and make whole
sale arrests all around at any time he
became convinced that a prize fight
was in progress; so the boys Travelled
at a slow pace and merely boxed for
fun, the referee declaring it a draw at
the end of the last round.
With no prospect of police interfer--
ence, they will fight Friday night, and
are training with that intention upper
most In their minds. Flynn is doing
long grinds on the road every morning
and works like a section hand in the
afternoon. Barry is not behind the
fireman in his work, doing equally
strenuous stunts every day. Both are
boxing in an entertaining manner ev-
cry afternoon, and each says he is
ready to go into the ring at a moments
notice.
The card for next Friday night will
be as follows:
Jim Barry VS.. Jim Flynn, ten rounds.
Eddie Danaher VS.. Willie Mack, six
rounds.
Mike Dalton VS.. Congo Coon. six
rounds.
Young McGovern VS.. Kid Brennan.
six rounds.
Flynn did a ten-mile run on the road
yesterday and in the afternoon he
boxed four rounds each with Battling
Johnson and Eddie Danaher. The lat
ter Is proving to be one of the best
sparring partners that any big fellow
has tackled around here recently, as he
can take punishment and puts UP a
fight that makes the other fellow step
lively to avoid a dangerous collision.
Barry worked for an hour in the after
noon and boxed with George Herberts.

Mr.. Braden spoke cautiously on de-
velopments yesterday. lie was unWl-
ling to show his hand fully, and he in
sisCs on absolute fairness in handing
the proposition because of Its 1ar-
reaching effects.
Il will do all in my power to ferret
out all improper practices" sald MI
Braden.
1T is an important subject to get at
in some phases, but with the co-operd-
ton of all lovers OF athletics we VIII
get at the facts and then WelSh thelii
carefully"
Chairman Braden says he will insist
on a general inquiry, and the complaint
as published in The Herald Will re-
ceiVe prompt attention y
IF Occidental students nave IN
fringed the rules l must know IT. ne
said. 1--WE want fair play and no ia
vors. All we ask is that the charges be
brought in proper form so that we can
get at legal evidence.
Before acting we will give each man
a fair hearing at the next meeting, TO
be held in the Y. M. c. A. building NO

ticipating in Sunday games WheIe
direct or Indirect financial conSldera-
ton was at stake, but until the Ldi-
ferty volcano the A. A. U. had no dl-

the beginning of a housekeeping which
win eventually put the whole game on
a better basis.

ing loudly that they hardly know where
the storm will play next ana Wnlch
men are walking under the swords.

FROM THE GRIDIRON

Pasadena high school will be rep
resented this fall on the gridiron by
a second football eleven. 1t is ex-
pected that with a little practice they
will be able to challenge any lSO-pound
team in the city. Among the leading
candidates for the team are Single
ton for fullback, Cattell and one of the
Reiman brothers as ends, Gless and
Weymouth guards, Jacquemanie and
Stevens tackles, Van Dam quarterback
and Hart center.
The Fifty-second street football team
had q game scheduled with the Ninth
street school, but owing to some mis-
arrangement the game was called off
last night by Manager Martin of the
Ninth street eleven on account of an
other game being scheduled with the
Thirtieth street school for election
morning on the Fiesta park gridiron.
Manager Martin informed The Herald
last night that he would be pleased
to arrange game for Saturday morn
ing if desired.
A new football eleven has been or
ganized by the pupils of the Echo
park playground club. 1t will be
known as The Herald Juniors, and
Manager Ossati, who has the eleven in
charge, would be pleased to hear from
any 130-pound team in regard to play
ing on Saturdays. Answer through
The Herald or phone A5463.

POMONA PLAYS WHITTIER
ON CLAREMoNT GRIDIRON

CLAREMONT, Oct. 30. - When the
Whittier team arrives here tomorrow
morning the visitors will find every
thing ready for a fast and hard game.
While locally the direction of the score
is not in doubt, it generally is con-
ceded that the game viii be no walk
over. Coach Stanton stated that he
would be anxious until Pomona de-
cisively gets the lead.
Pomona's weak place is her back
field. Two men, new in their positions,
will be tried-Becker at full and Metz
at right half. 1t will be the first match
game without Mahoney at full. Metz
and Becker are sophomores, as are
Vale, Parker and Gore.
The new back field, which has played
together for only two nights, probably
will slacken up the team little. The
old line will be retained. Mahoney is
in doubtful physical condition. Sor-
Der will be held in reserve for left end
and W. Tangeman for left half Shut,
who will start the game at left half, is
suffering yet with a sprained foot, sus-
tanned early in the week.
The lineup will be:
Right end, Gore. Benner; right
tackle, Taylor; right guard, Kepner;
center, Weinland; left guard, Craw-
ford; left tackle, Fuller; left end, Par
ker, quarterback, Vale; fullback,
Becker; right half, Metz; left half,
Shut.
The sophomore boys team in fast
but ragged game of basketball de-
feated the academy team 20 to Z. So
far the freshmen have the best girls
team. Their team defeated the sopho-
more girls 3S to 6. The sophomores
were handicapped by losing Miss
Mudgett, the crack center, early in
the game. The feature of the contest
was the team work of Misses Parker
and Lutz from Santa Ana high school.
Hereafter among the students of the
lower school that institution will be
termed Pomona academy instead of
the preparatory school. 1t is felt that
the old name does not comport with
the dignitY of a separate organization.

HITS, BUT LOSES
Angels More Fortunate Than Beavers
in Hitting Ball at opportune
Times and Victory
Goes to Them
ANGELS 8, Portland 1

Sam Ferraris, a local semi-profes-
sional twirler, was given a tryout yes
terday by Portland and made good, al
though the Angels won the game by
the score of to 1. The Champions
were more fortunate In getting their
five hits when they were needed and
this turned the tide of victory in favor
of Dad Wheeler and against the local
graduate Ferraris was not as
steady as his older rival, although he
allowed only five hits. He gave four
bases on balls as against three for
Wheeler, and famed only one Angel,
while Wheeler struck out seven Beav-
ers. Both pitchers had excellent sup
port in the field, each team making
only one error.
Following is the official score and
summary:
