By WILLIAM UNMACK

With the freshman teams disposed of
at both California and Stanford univer-
stiles and the consequent worries at
tached to the training of the babies
a matter of the past. the coaches at
both universities have now started on
the hard grind of preparing the var
sity teams for the great battle to be
fought November IL.
The varsity squads at both Califor-
MIA and Stanford are playing better
Rugby this year than ever before
This statement sounds like the same
old gag that Is given out year after
year, but this time it is. nevertheless,
a fact, and what is more the class of
football played SO far this season will
bear favorable comparison with Rugby
as played in any part of the world.
That the trip to Australia by the All
America university team has had
beneficial effect on the game here is
seen in every contest that the varsities
play in. Last year Allen and Elliott
OF California were as fine pair of five
eight backs as ever played the game
here, and none better has been devel-

The salesroom of A. E. Hunter auto

this week. Mitchell owners and their
friends, not to mention the general
public, were out In numbers to look over
the first Of the 1911 models of the
Mitchell cars. Many a Mitchell owner
looked longingly at the new models.
They all wanted them. for the maxim
"once q Mitchell owner always Mitchell
owner" seems to hold good still AS
one owner expressed himself: II would
like to have one of these cars, but ii

AUTOCAR TRUCK
IS PROVING WORTH
Runs Every Day for Eight
Months With Small Cost
of Upkeep

That the motor truck is making good
was demonstrated yesterday by re-
port received by Walter c. Morris
agent for the Autocar truck. w. H
Lipp Jr. of Redwood City called al
the Autocar agency and reported that
the truck he purchased some eight
months ago has done more than the
usual service.
It was averaged between As and so
miles day every day of the week
including Sunday, and outside of the
cost Of tires, gasoline and oil his cost
of upkeep has not reached SO. Lipp
uses the car in the ice business: which
demands quick work over all kinds and
conditions of roads.
There has been no chance to save the
truck, nor has there been any attempt
to do so. It merely had to cover Lipp's
trade, which it has done in most
satisfactory manner.

AUTOMOBILE HAULS
Big LOCOMOTIVE
EMF $50" Successfully Tows
Iron Horse Before Crowd
at Los Angeles

Pulling monster locomotive weigh
Ing 10 tons along the railroad track in
Los Angeles few days ago an EMF
go" automobile made a remarkable
demonstration of power before several
Salt Lake railroad roundhouse men and
many Los Angeles motorists. 1t was
accomplished by coupling the engine
to the motor car with heavy rope tied
to the rear axle of the machine and
starting from dead standstill.
Obtaining traction was at first diff
cult on account of the soft condition of
the ground over which the test was
made, but this was overcome by a num-
ber of heavy men getting into the ton
neau of the EMF and weighing it
down.
Harry A Lord, president of the Lord
motor car company of Los Angeles. was
at the wheel of the EMF. Several Of
those present offered to bet that the car
would not be able to perform the task.
and for moment after Lord ''let In the
clutch of his car the big locomotive
seemed glued to the rails and the by
ISLANDERS expected to see the rear con-
struction of the car torn out.
But they were disappointed, for slow
ly but surely the big wheels of the en-
gine began to move, and in another
moment the locomotive was being
dragged along the tracks. Engineer
Love, WHO sat III inc tcHHedu, was the
first to cheer His shout was imme-
diately taken up by the others, and in
a moment there was vocal demon
stration long to be remembered.
The engine, which is number 439. is
on the regular passenger run over the
Salt Lake road. 1t is the first locomo-
tive ever to be hauled by motor car,
and the EMF is the first machine to
do It, Besides Harry A. Lord, who drove

game and the keen observers of the
science of the game with one accord
selected Allen and Elliott as two of the
best backs California had ever had on
the varsity squad. This season is about
half over now and if last year these
men caused wonder and admiration for
their play, their play this year is moth
ing short of marvellous. The cause of
this splendid development in these mems
play is not hard to discover. 1t is the
extra little ideas they picked UP on
the Australian and New Zealand tour
that has put them in a class with the
best.
Stanford also has profited blythe tour
and the way the cardinal men are per-
forming has been freely commented on
by followers of the Stanford team.
Where in previous years there ex-
listed a sort of mechanical movement
and plays were studied in parrot fash
ion," as 1t were, this year conditions are
nodded in an altogether different way.
The play this year more than ever be-
fore is the play of The experienced
Rugby individual, and each man has to
a greater degree than previously used
his own head thought out different
modes of attack and defense. and antici-
pated different plays of his opponent
that has brought the game to the high
standard we see. played every Saturday
by the varsities.
All this will show itself to greater
advantage on November IL, when the
two varsity squads meet on California
field Coaching is all right and Cali
fornia and Stanford could not have
more competent men to direct their re-
spective fifteens, but with all the coach
ing when the man learns to use his own
head and depend more on his own exer-
tions and the game he himself plays
can force the other fellow to play into
his hands, then Rugby Is certainly GO
ing ahead and that is the exact condi-
ton of affairs in California today.
