monds yesterday. On the Santa Ana

CHIEFS LECTURE
THEIR PLAYERS
BY CHESTER LAWRENCE

Some lectures are interesting and
some are not. But the lectures that
the various football squads will re-
ceive this afternoon from their coaches
would make good reading were they
printed in book form. Somebody said
that Coach Noble will talk backward
and tell his bunch of huskies that they
absolutely were no good during the
game with u. S. c. last Saturday. Sure
he will That is part Of coach's
game. It is safe to say that nobody
was as pleased with the victory as
was this proficient coach. Neverthe-
less, he regarded the affair as a prac-
tice game. During the whole melee
he sat like an Indian, listening intent
ly to the signals and anticipating ev-
cry play and mentally weighing each
player in the balance. The result of
his eaglelike watching will be known
this afternoon, when the squad reports
for practice.
Coach Traeger will probably confer
with Capt Burek this afternoon re-
garding the selection of the varsity
team. No doubt there will be many
changes and, profiting by Saturdays
1me, the men will get down to hard
pan and endeavor t. make good in the
game with the Sherman Indians, which
is scheduled for Saturday, October "a,
at Los Angeles. AS Stan is Ut of the
game, the U. s. c. boys will be as
sisted by the services Of another
punter during their scrimmages.
The star football game for next Sat-
urday will be between the Los Angeles
high school and Walter Fempers
l. Sky st. Vincent team. This will be
the first time these teams ever have
met In regular game, as they played
only practice games together last year.
Barring accidents both teams should
have an equal chance for the victory.
cent should win easily, but with many
of her best forwards crippled and q
limited scrub team who practically are
strangers to the game, victory is not
so sure. Los Angeles high on the other
h nd have the advantage of match
game with a good team and will have
a week in which to rectify many errors.
Football as q spectacular game is un-
surpassed unless by baseball The
price of admission to local games is
l.w compared to that charged by the
managers of eastern games. There is
some talk about raising the admission
fee to local college games. Not a bad
idea, the games this year promise to
be worth it.
Quarterback Ickes of the u. s. c.
team certainly put up a good game
Saturday. He made several runs that
stamps the possibilities of the little
one. The road to fame is paved with
slch plays as he made during the Sec
ond half, when he made lodging run
for thirty-flve yards gain. And, dur
ing tho game he follows the trail of
the ball like a politician after a bag
of money.

ring and already has attracted a large
following among the fans, who VIII
make him favorite over the Cripple
Creek boy.
Weeks is plodding along most salts
factorily to himself and friends ana
worked out before large crowd at the
Hotel Oakwood training camp yester-
day afternoon. Weeks came south IN
excellent health and condition ana
since has found 1t an easy task to whip
himself into fighting trim. He is greatly
pleased with the progress of his work
and with his condition and weight.
He went on the road for long run
Yesterday morning and put in an hour
at hard work in the outdoor gymnasium
in Fairyland park, topping Off with
several rounds of boxing, in which he
satisfied all the fans in the park that
he has not lost bit of his cunning or
his punching ability. Freddie Is con-
fident of regaining whatever prestige
he lost in his battle with Abe Attell
and proposes to go on up the ladder by
defeating Wolgast.
This battle hold forth most at
tractive prospect for the fans and
at the box office. With two such classy
and hard hitting scrappers at work
over a 25-round route, there can be
nothing short of an exciting and de-
cisive rough house mauling match, In
which two boys, famous for their sleep
producing wallop, are to match their
punches. The attracttveness OF the
bout has been increased in O. material
degree in the change noted herein as
regards the advanced date and the
changed hour for staging the battle.

FOLSOM'S BOAT
WINS HANDICAP
MISCHIEF II TAKES FINAL RACE
OF SEASON
Finishes Eleven Minutes Ahead of
the Wasp, Which Gets Second
Prize-South Coast Yacht
Club Events Completed
Especial to The Herald. ]

SAN PEDRO, Oct. u.-Capt. Wal
ter Folsoms fleet yacht Mischief II
was the winner in the South Coast
Yacht clubs final race of the season.
known as the arbitrary handicap, held
off San Pedro this afternoon. OF the
twelve boats eligible for this race,
seven crossed the line in the order OF
their handicap, the first one just 81
minutes ahead OF Mischief III. At the
finish, Capt. Folsom crossed the line
ii minutes ahead of the Wasp. which
won the second prize, and 80 minutes
ahead of the Myth, which won the
commodores cup, or the consolation.
1t was not an ideal day for the race
as the wind was entirNy too nght'
although 1t freshened somewhat when
the boats were on the second leg. The
advantages of the handicap for the
smaller boats would have been Detlel
il the wind had been stronger and
the race would have been better from
the onlookers point of view, as well.
However, with the light breeze the
seamanship of the skipper was Iully
tested and between the Wasp and the
Venus a close race was had from the
start to the finish.
The preliminary gun was fired by
A. Lester Best from the judges boat
at 1925 o'clock and the Portolo, with
Capt. Harry Mellen at the tiller, slow
ly crossed the line between the south
east end of the Miner bulkhead and
the stakeboat at 1880 o'clock. With
spinnaker and mainsail set the Por-
tolo bore away on a course northeast
by north, one-half east, toward the
first fagboat, two miles away, in the
direction of Long Beach. The Myth,
with Capt. Charles Richardson at the
helm, started at 12:42 o'clock. putting
up balloon jib as soon as thef gun
rlaad d.anr TSof
shell, started at 12:4S:30; the Wasp,
Capt. Fritz whitney, Ill; the Venus,
Capt. X. r. Bradley, 1:12:3O; Mischief,
Capt. Warren ID. Wood, 1:21, and Mis-
chief III, Capt. Walter Folsom, 1877.
Most of the boats were a little late
in starting, owing to the slight breeze.
but Capt. Folsom held Mischief ii
right along the line and shot across
just as he heard the bark of the gun.
on the first leg the relative positions
of the boats remained about the same,
except that the Venus and Wasp got
very close together near the stakeboat
and the Shadow overhauled the Myth.
The boats rounded the stake flag as
follows; portfolio at 1:29:30; Shadow,
1870; Myth, 1:3S:30; Venus, 1:52:55;
Wasp, 1888; Mischief, 2:00:15, and the
Mischief III at 2:0Q:45.
Slowly overhauIs Mischief !
Setting the reaching jib, Capt. Fol-
som on Mischief II slowly gained on
Mischief i, and being to windward he
kept the wind from Capt. Wood and
gradually overhauled and passed him.
The course on the second leg was
southeast by east, out to sea. The
boats covered the two miles in good
time, having the wind, which had
freshened considerably as result of
fervent prayers sent up by the ladies
in the judges boat. abeam.
The second flag was rounded in the
following order: Portolo, 1856; Shadow,

Afternoon shows at Vernon always
have drawn better crowds than at
night, owing to the discomfort occa-
stoned by the lack of a roof to protect
the fans from the chilly night air and
fogs, and the change from night card
TO an afternoon show will be welcome
news to the fans, as will the news that
the date has been advanced.
wolgast and Weeks have been in
training for several days and find them
selves in such excellent condition and
so near to weisht that they had no
complaint to offer on this score, while
the prospect that an afternoon scrap
would draw better at the box office ap-
pealed strongly in favor Of the change.
They will have Ave more days In which
to work into perfect condition and
make weight, and this is deemed ample
time by both.
wolgast worked strenuously yester-
