Rival Soccer Clubs Are
Ready for the Fray
BY Bob Shand

Independents versus San Francisco at
the stadium; Building Trades versus
Scotias at Preside; Vampires versus
Burns at Alameda, and Rovers versus
Hornets at Freemans park, Oakland.
This will be the opening soccer bill,
and is on the cards for Sunday. October
4, and according to a number of very
optimistic secretaries there is not the
slightest chance of any of the eight
teams losing a game. However, 1t Is
very likely that there will be sorrow
in town when the results are known,
and just to make a little guess we will
assume that the Independents, Building g
Trades, Burns and Hornets wilh be on
the sorrowing side OF the score. At least
been watching the practice games have
the situation sized up, and maybe the
wise ones are not SO foolish after all
this trip.
The Independents and San Franciscos
will both present strange lineups, as
many of their last years players are
not available. The San Franciscos Will
be seriously handicapped by the loss of
Mizen and Walters, who have gone over
to the Albion Rovers, while the Indies
will be only shadow of their former
triumphant selves. Inc vampires VIII
ers are reported to be In great condi-
ton, and for this reason the form stu
dents have picked the BATS to slip one
over on Burns, although the latter ag-
gregation won the challenge cup last
year and finished the season with a
great squirt. The Building Trades team
will make its debut and the caliber of
Its players is not yet known. The Sco-
tia will be about the same as last year.
The Albion Rovers seem to have 1t
on everything else in the game this
season, as they have practically had
their choice of the best players in the
game. In a game with the Hornets at
Alameda two weeks ago the latter went
down before the Rovers by score of
to O. and it does not seem that there
Is a chance of the RoVerS being very
sad after this contest.
Two practice games played last Sun
day produced interesting results. For
instance, the Robert Burns trounced
Rovers took a fall out of the Inde-
pendents, 1 to o. The latter score would
Indicate that the Indies have very
good team this year, but the Rovers
were trying out some new men, and
this may account for the good showing
of the Indies. However, We're the city
boys to have q team good enough to
lick the others this season there would

popular In years gone by the Indies

with the British Rugby union. When
such Affiliations are consummated the
Pacific Coast Rugby referees union will
be recognized by every Rugby union of
the world.
Stanford and California are both
members of the union here and in the
event of their desiring games with for
eign unions they could always secure
them by reference to their union, pro-
vided they do not affiliate with foreign
unions as individual clubs.
This affiliation would mean much for
Rugby, and it is expected the Pacific
Coast Rugby referees union will take
up the matter definitely at its meeting
tomorrow night.
Last week a well known Australian
Rugby player witnessed the Stanford
Barbarian game at Palo Alto, and when
told that the university had been play
ing Rugby only two years he was
ast9unded.
The playing ability of the universi-
ties, colleges and schools this year is
remarkable. In every department of
the game great development Is shown.
Stanford's initial games this year have
been high class exhibitions California; s
equally so, and in fact it is hard to say

What one lacks in one department is
made up for in others.
AS the universities have improved, so
also have the colleges and schools The
University of the Pacific is a splendid
example of Rugby development and
probably has made more progress than
most of the other colleges.
The freshmen teams at the universi-
ties also are a big surprise this year.
The first year men show more aptitude
for the game and more general knowl-
edge than any previous baby" teams
The game is now evidently on its up-
ward march and it is liked by the stu
dents wherever it is now played
The public is becoming deeply inter-
ested in the game. and as it's knowledge
Is becoming more general the more IN
terest Is taken.
The Olympic club is minus three

will be in the field again next week
The Barbarians have insured every one

their men has been incapacitated, with
a wrenched shoulder. but he will be
ready to take his place next week The

LiCk's Racket Wielders
Are Easy Winners
BY Grant Smith

The second semiannual tennis meet
of the Tri School league was held in
the California club courts yesterday
and the honors went to the California
School of Mechanical Arts. The repre-.
sentatives of that school outclassed
their opponents and did not lose a set.
They scored 15 points. Oakland high
school was second with points and
Berkeley high, the only other school
represented, failed to score point.
The last tournament of the kind was
won by Lowell high gchool, whose play
ers at that time SO far outclassed those
of any other school as to make 1t i'm
possible for them to lose. Had Maurice
Lowell not decided to stay out and
give the other schools a chance thew
would probably have been the only
contestants. It is strange that Lowell
has for the last 10 years carried off the
honors with little or no difficulty. Nc
