POMONA ELEVEN TOO
LIGHT FOR COLLEGES
Coach Believes That Men VIII s'

Backs

CLAREMONT. oct. 19.-Although
the Pomona college football eleven won
the game against Santa Ana with
comparative ease in the second man,
the fact that in the first halt' Wheh
the high school lads were fresh' the
varsity was all but outplayed, Is CIV,
ing the sagebrush supporters no slhall
amount of worry. The team, Whlle
able to hold it's own against llgnt heh'
will find it an altogether dlfterehl
proposition when they meet the heaFS
backs of the law school next SatuI
day. To this end Coach stanton is
making strenuous efforts to get some
heavy men at full and ENDS. Inc resi-
of the team is heavy enough, but for
these three places the right men nave
not as yet been found. Miller. VINO
has been playing full, put up good
game Saturday, but it is doubtful II
he will be able to stand the heavy
bounding. TO this end Stanton has
brought Hentschke, who has been at
end and weighs $50 pounds, back of
the line and is trying him out at full.
Haskins will be put on the line IN
Hentschke's place. Nye, VINO is
heavier than the rest of the present
candidates, shows a lack of knowl-
edge of the game that may bar him,
and the rest of the ends, while putting
up a good game. are too light. Ashe,
who has been playing on the scrubs,
has made good and will join the var
sity SQUAD tomorrow. Seward is re-
covering from the effects of his
wrenched knee, and it is hoped that he
will be around for the Whittier game

RUMORS WEIGHTS WERE
FbLSIFlED ARE CREDITED
New York Believes ketchel Weighed
1863 and Johnson 2o5 in Recent
Heavyweight Battle
z r YORK. Oct. 9,-Information

Me- YORK, Oct 19,-Information
which is said to come from reliable
source on the Pacific coast, and which
is given currency here, is to the effect
that misleading statements were pur-
posely made as to Stanley Ketcheis $
weight when he fought johnson last
Saturday. Because of criticisms OF the
match when it was first made to the
effect that it was manifestly unfair ar
to pit the giant negro against SO
small an opponent, it is said that
KetchePs weight was given out at 176
when as a matter of fact he did not
scale more than 16S according to the
information reaching this city, and
that Johnson weighed more than 2Oo
pounds, which gave him an immense
if not insurmount4ble advantage. BY
announcing Johnson weighed l95 and
Ketchel 176 more interest was excited
in the fight than would have been
shown if the alleged real weight of the
men had been disclosed. Eastern sport
ing men are awaiting the fight pictures
to personally judge the size of the
two men.

Bisbee daily review., 1909-10-05

in rare instances seem to have no weight with those who have the pow CT to order them or those who resort to strikes as a means to force em- ployers to comply with their demands. Hardly a day passes but that strikes with the attendant disturbances, in jury to business. and often loss of life, are reported in the columns of the newspapers.
 Strikes have become more numer- ous-and more mischevious recently 1; more so than perhaps. during any period since the beginning of the in dustrial era. In some quarters this is taken as a sign and proof of prosper ity, the phenomenon being explained on the theory that labor, bent on ob- taining it's share of the general pros perity, resorts to the strike method as an effective medium, wrong as the method may be, judged from past ex- perience and a long record of faii. ures.
 The strike in its present enlarged and perplexing form has come with industry's wonderful enlargement and expansion. Its birth, however, is by no means of recent date, and its or igin may be traced to a period in his tory when mills and factories were unknown. indeed to a period of re mote antiquity.
