CALIFORNIA RUGBY
ATTRACTS WORLD
Noted English Authority Says
Americans Excel BrifiSherS
AT TackIing Game
BY WILLIAM UNMACK

Probably the most authentic ana
authoritative sporting sheet in Eng
land, particularly in regard 10 all
forms of football. is the Athletic News
of Manchester. In the issue of March
21 whole column is devoted TO
Rugby football in the United States,
written by Wv. L. S." the most noted
authority on the Rugby code in Eng
land. W. L. s. has the situation in
California down pat. and he has evil
IDENTIFY been we'll coached by some one
here who is in close touch with local
conditions.
He first of all gives a short history
Of the adoption OF Rugby on this coast
and leads up to the wonderful show
ing that the local players have made
at the game in four short years, quot
the games with the Wallabies as eX-
employing the great aptitude of the
men at a game that is in a large de-
gree foreign to them In reference to
this L quote the following from the
article:
My correspondent declares that
Englishmen would not credit the abil-
ity of the men, and this after merely
four years of practice. L can. however.
understand it quite we'll / have had
to do with the American student in the
world of athletics I know that
'thoroughness' is the motto which char
acterizes all his preparation for track
triumphs. and that thoroughness' will
enter into his Rugby football just as
emphatically."
Comment is also made on the prob
ability of the local universities at
any time altering the rules to suit
their own convenience, and on this
W. L. S. says:
1T is all a most interesting posi-
ton. One can sympathize with the
pioneers of the game in their position.
They see before them all the material
necessary for the development of a high
standard of Rugby football. but they
also see that the young fellows are
are not likely to subscribe heartily to
rules which are laid down from this
country. Rather would they be a law
unto themselves. placing together the
best parts of the Rugby game with
the best parts of other reforms of foot
ball, and so evolving a form of sport
which they would call our own. That.
of course, would mean the decadence
of the pure Rugby game in California"
That the eyes of the Rugby men all
over the world are now turned on Cali
fornia is very evident from the re-
marks W. l.. s. makes on the tour OF
the California team in Australia this
year. The arrangements for the visit
team here this fall are causing a lot
of excitement in the English Rugby
world. This year (if the local team
goes to Australia) four different cOun-
tries will be striving for international
honors. England and South Africa will
fight IL out in South Africa, and in
Australia the doings of our own team
that the New South Wales union has
invited will be closely followed.
