Defeat

NEW YORK, Nov. 24.-Henry P.
Cline of Philadelphia won his second
game, and Albert Cutler of Boston suf-
fered his second defeat today and to-
night in the 1872 balk line billiard tour
nament for the championship Of the
world
Cline, who previously had beaten the
veteran, George Slosson, tonight beat
George Sutton Of Chicago 500 to 479.
Cutler beaten yesterday by the
French champion, Cassignola, was
beaten today by Calvin Demarest of
Chicago 500 to 473.
Although Sutton kept a good lead up
to the twenty-first inning tonight,
Cline crept up slowly with one of the
most brilliant exhibitions of play seen
in the tournament thus far. In the
twentieth inning he made a run of 146,
one more than Sutton's best.

TODAY'S CONTEST
WILL BE THE LAST
Throop and Pasadena High Will Sever
Athletic Connections - Betting
and Detriment 10 Studies
Given as Cause

PASADENA, Nov. 24.-Prof. Charles
Emery Barber, principal of Throop
academy, on the eve Of the great foot
ball contest between Throop institute
and Pasadena high school, announced
that the game tomorrow would mark
the end of the contests between the
two institutions. In view of the dis
agreeable situations engendered during
recent years by the annual football
games with Pasadena high school
Throop has decided to discontinue that
game after this year." said Prof. Bar
Der this afternoon.
Only a short time ago President
James A. b. Scherer Of Throop issued
a proclamation against betting on the
annual game. This, together with the
fact that there have been charges
against the coaches attempting to learn
the signals of the opposing team, un-
doubtedly has prompted the drastic
action taken today and which has
fallen like thunderbolt upon the stu
dents.
Another reason advanced for the
action is that the students in past
years have done considerable damage
after the annual game while celebrat-
ing, and also that they spend too much
time discussing the relative strength
and merits of the teams, to the detri-
ment of their studies.
Among ThroOp and high school stu
dents tonight there is no subject that
is being discussed with such vim and
vigor as the action which puts an end
to the intercollegiate sport While in
terest in the game tomorrow has been
at it's height, tonight a damper has
been thrown over the affair

BY n. ID. MYRAN

What will be the final event in foot
ball circles this season will take place
this afternoon at Fiesta park when the
University of Southern California law
school football team meets the st. Nln-
cent college eleven. The contest will be
called at 2:30 p. m sharp, and II IS
expected that the attendance VIII make
this years record by large margin.
Both teams have trained conscientious
ly and are ready to battle to the last
ditch. The consensus Of opinion is so
divided in regard to the ultimate VIC
tors that many wagers have been made
on an even money basis. The students
of the two colleges have pooled their
betting money and a wager of 5000 has
been made, which well represents the
confidence of the two student bodies in
their gridiron warriors.
During the past week training quar-
ters at st. Vincents have shown more
than the ordinary hustle Of the regular
football season, for Coach Rheinschild
has been steadily working with his
huskies, whipping them back into form
after their recent spell of inactivity.
With Rheinschild, condition was the
result to be strived for, as team work
had been already developed. Following
is his forecasted opinion as to the out
look for a Saint victory:
IT am not just satisfied as to the
present condition of the boys, which
has been brought about by lack of
games. When a person is not in shape
1t is more of a guessing proposition to
foretell the outcome. However, we are
going into the game with the expecta
tion of winning, and, think, will win"
Sorenson Working
with Coach Sorenson it has been a
different proposition to whip into form
a winning team. With him both con-
dition and team work have played i'm
portant parts in the everyday work
outs. Starting with team that lost to
Occidental by the score of Is to 0,
which. considering the fact that the
Oxys played a scoreless tie game with
the Saints, is in itself not a very prom
Using prospect. But besides that, the
team had to be rebuilt with the
strengthening material received from
the regular varsity team, including De-
cius, Selph and Kidder These stars
although materially strengthening the
team, required that the team work be
thoroughly threshed over again, so as
TO make a perfect machine.
From the steady gains made by the
regulars in their last few practices
against the scrubs it seems that Coach
Sorenson has overcome all the diff
culties and has hammered out team
Los Angeles herald., 1909-11-25
Weight. St. Vincent.

that win make the Saints know they
have been in the game. Coach Soren-
son said:
"The fact that we have lost to Po-
mona is no criterion as to what will
happen Thanksgiving day. This year is
practically the first attempt that the
Law school has made to get into college
rank, and when you consider that Po-
mona only beat us one touchdown for
the conference championship, 1t is not
so bad for the first year out. Up to
the Pomona game the team had been
working at a disadvantage because of
the fact that We had no second team. 1
am not worried about the Saints con-
fidence of victory. The eleven has
learned some real football. ] know
that our opponents will not have
walk away and 1 shall be very much
surprised If they make a touchdown"
Many Substitutes
The Law team will be well supplied
with substitute material, some Of whom
are almost on a par with the regulars.
For right end. Arnold, tipping the
scales at 175 and Wall at 100, will be
in the reserve. Kidder and Brown,
both balancing the beam at 1856, are the
left guard subs. Skinner. weighing 175
and Whitworth. $50, will relieve Har-
old at left end If necessary, while
Rouse and Ickes, both weighing close
to the $50 mark, will be the extra
quarters.
Coach Reinschild has less reserve on
hand but what there Is of ii Is good
Lescalie, weighing slightly over 160
can be used at center, guard or tackle
while O'Connor can relieve r. Murray
at quarter in case the latter is dis
abled. O'Malley, who weighs 140, is a
good emergency end or half.
The seasons record of the two teams
dopes the Saints easy winners, but
when considering the reconstruction Of
the Barristers, today's contest as
sumes the appearance of what should
be a hard and evenly fought battle
from start to finish. One thing is GER
tain-that football will be played at
Fiesta park this afternoon.
Yesterday afternoon an automobile
procession in which both elevens par
ticipated in uniform served to stimu-
late interest in what promises to be
one of the fastest games of the season.
Bill Trager will act as referee with
Chisholm doing the umpiring, and KEEP
ner acting as field judge. Arden Day
has consented to act as head linesman
with Captain Stoney keeping time. The
game will begin promptly at 230 p.
m, general admission for which will
be 81.
