Freshman BOOferS
BY WILLIAM UNMACK

The California freshmen team yester-
day came back. and put one over on
the Mission high school team. The
high school team got the worst end of
a Is to orgument and on the play the
score should have been even more in
the California babies favor.
The Mission high team did not play
several occasions appeared to be fright
ened and their tackling was bad. They
tackled high and did not go at their
men in the right way. The Mission
serum was good and at hooking the
ball shared honors with the babies,
though the back field could not con-
tinue the advantage that the forwards
on many occasions gained for them.
The California team, on the other
hand, played good Rugby and their
passing is improving with every game
played. The baby team that the
coaches put in the field yesterday was
not the best, but it made a creditable
showing and the tries were all obtained
from good plays. =

was on the center three-quarter line
for the California team. His great

Yesterdays game he was the cause OF
losing at least one sure try and tnere
were other times when a well Delivered
pass would have done his side consider
able good. This fault will probably be
rectified with little greater knowl-
edge of the game.
The California halfback, Mcmahon,
was instrumental in starting most OF
the spectacular passing rushes tnat
were so frequent in yesterdays game.
In some of these passes the ball
changed hands seven times. Charles

formed, because Incell passed FORWARD.
California gradually worked the play
into the Mission ground and attacked
the goal line repeatedly. Mission de-

some good work among the Cali1ornld
backs Evans scored for the BABIES.
