MAYOR TO START
MUNICIPAL GAME
Great Thr0ng of Fans VIII See
Game Between Police and
Firemen

When Mayor Mccarthy throws the
first ball over the plate at Recreation
park on Sunday afternoon. one of the
greatest crowds that the ball grounds
has yet known will cheer him. The
chief executive of the city is all primed
and ready for his pitching stunt, hav
ing signed up to start the game be-
tween the fremen and the policemen.
1t is estimated that at least $4,000
people will turn out to see the battle.
Already more than $4,000 seats have
been disposed of and now the committee
In charge Is wondering what is going
to become of the overflow. The field
will be roped off and all the late corners
will be compelled to stand up while the
game is in progress.
Practically every notable city official
will be present. Judge Thomas f.
Graham, president of the Pacific Coast
league, will be one of the masters of
ceremonies. Judge Graham has been
one of the busiest workers for the good
cause and his work has made him a
lifelong friend of every member of the
police and fire departments.
The fire and police commission mem
bers Will sit In opposite boxes and root
against each other Chief Seymour will
head a separate crowd of police rooters,
who will be opposed by Chief Murphy
and his crowd from the fire depart
ment. The Berkeley and Stanford
noise makers will have nothing on
these dignifed officials when the game
starts.
The rival teams appear to be in great.
form They are out at the ball park
working like SO many Beavers every
afternoon. The practice stunts of each
team are closely watched by the mem
bers of the other and the confidence on
each side seems to be Overwhelming.
The game will start promptly at
2:30. Big Bill Lange and George Hide
brand will be the umpires.
Captain Charley Birdsell OF the police
has announced his lineup as fol-
lows: Hoertkorn. catcher; Fitzpatrick,
pitcher; Esola, first base; Birdsell, sec.

VICTORIA INVITES
.U.C. .RUGGERSNORTH
British Canadian Champions
Would Play Local Varsity
in Christmas Holidays

BERK ELEY. Nov. 1s-A comnnunfca-
ton has been received from the Victoria
Rugby union in which an invitation Is
extended 10 the blue and gold varsity
team to come to Victoria during the
Christmas holidays and play a series OF
three games for the possession OF the
Keith cup and the championship OF the
Pacific coast
1t has been the custom during the last
four years for the winner OF the Cali
fornia-Stanford game TO go north at
Christmas time and play Vancouver for
the coast championship In game held
last Saturday at Vancouver the Vic
toria Rugby team decisiveIy defeated
vancouver in game for the Rugby
championship of British Columbia
Since Victoria is this year the champion
OF the north, IL is with an idea OF de-
term1ning the championship of the
whole Pacific coast that the California
varsity has been asked to make the trip
No team came down from British
Columbia this year because the Cana
dian Rugby season starts much later
than the football season in California
and 1t would not have been possible to
send a strong team down from the
north until the various club champion
ships in Victoria and Vancouver had
been played or and the representative
teams selected. Rugby football will be
at its height in British Columbia at
Christmas time and II the California
team goes north a spectacular series OF
games will be expected by the Rugby
enthusiasts on the coast.
1t is probable Athat a schedule OF
games will be arranged which will pro
vide for games at Victoria on Christmas
day and New Years day and a game at
Vancouver on December Is.
Stanford has already made three trips
to the north to play for the coast cham
pionship and in 1908 secured possession
of the Keith cup. California defeated
Stanford in 1909. but was in turn de-
feated by Vancouver last Christmas and
the cup passed mot the hands OF Vic
toria when Vancouver was defeated last
Saturday. If California should defeat
Victoria the Keith cup would become
the property OF the blue and gold team
TO be held until the championship Is
again decided In 1911.
In the series OF games played last
Christmas at Vancouver the University
of California was defeated in the first
two games by scores of 80 and 40. but
easily won the last game by a score OF
14-3.
With the Improvement which has
taken place In the California team this
year it is felt by Rugby critics in Cali
fornia that the blue and gold team
would have an excellent opportunity TO
win the championship.
No action has been taken as yet on
the invitation. but some sort of decis-
ion is expected in the near future.

Sunday School League
Admitted to P. A. A.

The Sunday Schools athletic league
was admitted to membership in the Pa
cific athletic association at it's monthly
meeting last night.
The basket ball committee OF the as
sociation announced that the state
championship tournament would be
held the first part of February and that
teams would be classified according to
weight, each individual being COM
PEELED to make the weight. Hereto
fore the average weight of teams was
taken, but the association found this
system to be faulty.
The committee in charge of the tour
nament consists of Robert W. Dodd
(chairman) Charles Minto and George
Schlitter. The games will probably be
divided between the Young Mems He
brew association gymnasium and the
Tamalpais club gymnasium. Robert w
Dodd was elected delegate to the an
nual meeting of the Amateur Athletic
union, which will be held in New York
next week

Rugby a Moral Issue,
Says Wheeler
rsseeiaI Dispatch 70 The CeIIl

BERKELEY. Nov. 1s.-"The superi-
ority OF the Rugby game for high
schools and colleges is so apparent. so
certainly established. that the issue now
presented as between this and the old
intercollegiate game has taken the
form Of a moral question and moral
issue"
Such is the opinion of President Ben
fauin Ide Wheeler of the University
OF California. He delivered himself Of
this statement yesterday afternoon
when he was asked for possibly the
thousandth time to draw comparison
between the two games.
The old intercollegiate game de-
serves 10 be driven out of all American
institutions" continued Doctor Wheeler
No one who is well versed in the two
Eames can say anything else. The
rerpetuatioa Of the old game can be
only regarded as ethicslly wrong. All
the ct repeated artificial efforts to
remodel IL have proved ineffective. The
great and in fact the only remedy is
the Introduction Of the Rugby game"
Doctor Wheeler seems to be more en-
thusisstic than ever over the British
psstime To him IL is a superior game
in every respect. He firmly believes
that the spectators enjoy II more, that
Il Is more scientific. open and even
snectacular and at the same time de-
void Of the danger and the brutality
which has resulted in changing and
rearranging the rules OF the old time
intercollegiate pastime.
"It can readily be seen that the pub
lie appreciates all these points" con-
ttnued Doctor Wheeler. This is shown
in the increased attendance. The crowd
which watched California and Stanford
rlav last Saturday afternoon was the
greatest in the history Of California
football This interest is bound to in
crease from year to year as the public
becomes more familiar with the Rugby
game"

ago, but up to this time there have
been no funds to publish the results
of the tests that have been made. Tie
tests in the first bulletin are of stones
available for macadamizing Of which
there IS practically an unlimited
amount
In 1905 Professor W. c. Ioad, who
has charge Of the work. had two sen
ior students begin an Investigation Of
the value Of Kansas limest0nes for road
making, and they tested nearly a hun
dred samples In the following year
two more students, Edward y Moves
and n. {. McCCndu@hy, carried on the
tests. Last year more tests were made
from time to time until the DEPART
ment has good idea Of what lime
stones will make maradam roads
There is a wonderful difference in
them, some being practically worth
less. while others and they are in the
majority are first class material.
