TEAM WILL FIGHT
FOR KEITH TROPHY
California University Football
Players GO North for Games
With Vancouver Union
By WILLIAM UNMAcK

The California university football
team leaves today on the steamer
Governor for Vancouver, where a series
OF three games are to be played against
the Vancouver Rugby union for the in
ternational championship of the Pacific
coast and incidentally for the posses
sion of the handsome Keith trophy.
This trophy at present is in the keep
ing of Stanford university which won
il last year BY winning the inter-
varsity game this year California
gained the right to play for the cup
and Will take the place of the Stanford
team as defenders of the trophy
If the California team wins the series
it viii hold the cup for the coming
year. but should the Vancouver team
win then Stanford Will ship the cup
north.
Seventeen players, Coach Schaeffer,
Trainer Christie and Graduate Manager
Merritt viii make the trip. The first
game of the series is to be played on
Christmas day.
The Vancouver union is putting forth
every effort to regain its lost laurels.
The team to meet California university
viii be considerably stronger than the
team that played here this season. OF
the squad of 90 that is working
out for final positions on the team at
Vancouver there are only five on the
whole squad that played in the games
here They are Baker, Byrne, r. Gale.
Mcdonald and Smith This is certainly
a startling state of affairs and proves
that the Vancouverites were correct
when they told us that they could put
a far stronger team on the field at
home.
If the northern seIectors can afford
to leave such men as Elliss and
Moifitt out of the squad they GER
tainly must have some really brilliant
men and the California team probably
will go up against the hardest propo-
sition it has stacked UP against this
year Slliss and Moffitt are particularly
bri ght stars and would do justice on
almost any club team.
Personally, ! do not think the Cali
fornia team has done enough training
for the games. It should have played
at least one good hard practice game
before going north. Woodward writes
me from Vancouver that the northern
ers have improved considerably and
he expects to see the Vancouver team
make a big fight to recover the Keith
cup.
The Vancouver squad that is in train
ing is as follows:
Byrne. McKinnon. Thomas. Rhodes. Scott, Gale
brothers. Sawyers. Mcdonald Smith. f. Irwin,
Jones stacy, Nhyte, Iratt, Jnderhlil, SacDS-
The California team that will leave
today for the Vancouver series is as
