FINAL RUGBY
BAT Tie ON
TODAY
California and Barbarian Club
Fight 1t Out on the
Park Stadium

The California varsity Rugby team
will meet the Barbarians this after
noon at 3 o'clock on the Golden Gate
the last big game of the local season.
The varsity team is playing this one
as a practice event prior to the trip
to Los Angeles. where they meet the
University of Southern California
next Thursday.
The Barbarians were originally to
have played the Olympic club for the
club championship today, but owing
to a difference of opinion between
the teams as to the eligibility of cer-
tain players the game was cancelled.
The Barbs are putting in strong
aggregation today and look able to
give the strong varsity men good,
tough argument.
The Stanford varsity team will play
the University of Southern California
In Los Angeles this afternoon. This
will be the last game for Stanford.
Southern California. under the coach
ing of Pat Higgins, will put the
strongest team Of its career in the
field against the cardinal.
The southern boys are not at all
backward in stating that they hope
to be able to spring a surprise on
Stanford this afternoon. The 40 to 0
defeat of the U S. c. by New Zealand
looks better to the southrons than the
"a and 56 to that Stanford took.
BY this evening the wires should tell
us just what margin Stanford won by.

Many New Faces to

There will be plenty of new faces
on the West Side next season and at
least seven veterans who now are on

this II President Charles w. Murphy
of the Chicago National league makes
good on his declaration that seven or
eight of the old timers are going into
the discards. Incidentally, from this
day on until Murphy returns from
abroad there will be cause to worry
for the Cub vets, for Murphy doesn't
mention any names.
1.-The Cubs need overhau1ing," said
Murphy today. I'VE need fast boys,
athletes capable of burning up the
base lines as we'll as those who can
send the ball to the far corners of the
lot. We have gathered in fine lot
of youngsters, boys who look as
though they meet the requirements,
and as soon as we find one who will
make good. away with a veteran

lander has been so inconsistent and
so erratic in the past that the follow

- TILL the Oakland sports are loyal
to the little blonde from their
home town. He is without doubt
the best fighter turned out of the
transbay city in so many years that
it would make one dizzy to attempt
the count. No matter what sort of
start frankie makes, his pals from
over the bay are always there with
strong alibi for him. They never have
failed yet.
~vcCARTHY has not much to lose.
M but he has a whole lot to gain.
@'AWhen he won that last four round
verdict over the Oaklander he man
aged to pull himself out of the debris
pile, where he had lain for months
absolutely forgotten. Another clean
cut victory over Burns will put the
fighting brick layer in line to grab
some of the big money in the very
near future.
vt is McCarthys Spartan courage
more than his class or his boxing
ability that has brought him to the
front when he seemed doomed. This
remarkable come back feat has start
ed them all mumbling. They canr
understand how the brick layer turned
the trick. He was supposed to have
shot his bolt a couple of years ago
after his miserable showing against
Sammy Smith.
IT'S good thing to encourage the
home talent anyhow. There's no
ers may do if they are given the op-
portunity. A year ago today who
thought that Willie Ritchie would be
wearing the lightweight crown? But
he has nailed it all right and there's
no telling that other San Francisco.

- URNS has had his fling at the
X higherups and he failed. He was
sent along too rapidly and he alsc
failed to display the class which
Ritchie had on tap for the world. But
when Burns is right he's pretty
tough bird to handle and the man
who can get away with him is en-
titled to quite flock of credit Let's
see what Mccarthy can do next Tues
day evening.
IN THE meantime. Jimmy Ciabby

Sons of Old Eli Have Beaten
Crimson 22 Out of 35
Games

With but few exceptions Harvard
and Yale have been annually on the
gridiron since 1875. The series was
interrupted during 1895 and 1896 over
serious intercollegiate quarrel, the
result OF the 1894 game in which the
Harvard men charged that Yale had
deliberately tried to injure their play
ers. OF the 33 games played to date
Yale has been by far the more sue
cessful, winning % times. OF the re-
naming games Harvard has won only
six, the other five resulting in ties.
1t is seen, therefore. that Yale can
afford to let Harvard win this year
and still be far ahead of the crimson
on the series The result of the series
