NEW YORK, Oct. 29-Harry Brew

has just returned from Paris. says

fragile. Brewer states that Johnson

games the same uncertainty as to
what men will go into the game 10
days before 1t Is scheduled can be
traced.
Three years ago Amos Elliott was
stated to be out OF the game for good,
and his name was not mentioned in.
the onlciaI lineup. When the Cali
fornia team trotted out on the field.
however, Amos was there in his reg
ular position and played the stellar
game Of the day.
LARGE SQUADS ON JOB
Though the students at the respect
i've universities have selected Is men
which they consider will be the ones
to go into the game. the choices of
the coaches Is another matter. The
selection of the team depends en-
tirely on the coaches, and IL any
men who.s up to the present, have
made good, and fall down in one par
ticular or another In the next 10 days.
It is quite on the cards to see them
dropped from the squad.
Both California and Stanford have
large squads to select their teams
frora, and at both colleges there is
between the men forming the first and
the second squad teams.
In the early season games Stanford
showed up well, but has since died
away and in the meantime California
has been coming right along With the
result that at the present time the
blue and gold Is considered the favor
lite for the honorS. The display of
the blue and gold against New Zea-
land in the first half OF their game
last Saturday was perhaps the fastest
and snappiest exhibition PUT up by
the Californians this season and If the
same style OF game Is played on Sat-
urday, November 8, 1t is dime to a
dollar that the blue and gold men will
serpentine the Stanford field.
The Stanford turf field will be an
advantage to the California team. 1t
has played on the heavy dirt field over
at Berkeley AL the season and Jump
ing right on to the fast turf is bound
to help its speed.
HOOTERS ARE HOPEFUL
The scoring Of the try by Abrams
against New Zealand for the Cali
fornia team last Saturday has put
constderable pep into the Berkeley
team and its rooters. 1t could hardly
be called clever piece OF work, but
at the same time the rank and file OF
the bleacherites Is 80 elated over the
feat that It ID bound to have
bracing effect on the team
New Zealand defeated Stanford by
heavy scores In both games. while
the same team defeated California by
considerably smaller scores. How.
ever. these can not be taken seri-
ously in the sizing up of relative abif-
ity of the two teams.
New Zealand admits that 1t does
not like the dirt field at Berkeley, and
on the other hand the team was per-
fectly at home on the Stanford turf
field The conditions at Stanford
were ideal for the showing of New
Zealand tactics and the boys in black
took every advantage of these con-
ditions.
At Berkeley the reverse was the
case. The men played the best game
they could on the heavy dirt field, but
the dust and the ground were against
speed either in passing or running.

CLASS WINS
PRIZE FOR
)AUBERT
Work of Brooklyn First Base
man Shows He Is Entitled
to the Auto
One Of the many peoullarities o.

One of the many peouliarities OF
baseball crops up in Daubert being
considered by the Chalmers, trophy
commissioners the player most val
liable to his team In the National
league this year, for in 1907 the
Brooklyn captain was declared not
sufficiently competent to hold his
berth with Cleveland This year he
wins the Chalmers car. That same
season Larry Doyle, who won the
Chalmers car last year, was looked
over BY a scout for an American
league club while he was playing
with Springfield of the Three Eye
league and the scout advised against
his purchase.
Doyle cost the Giants s4.500,. which
was a record price for a minor league
fnfelder In 1907. Daubert was ac-
quired by Brooklyn by means of the
draft process In 1910 for the sum of
81, 900, the Giants also putting In a
draft for him and losing out inH the
draw. Sir Jacob never wa9 in danger
OF being sent back to the minors after
he reached the majors for the second
time, and by June. 1910. had been
dubbed the Hal Chase Of the National
league
He failed to obtain membership in
the Society OF the Three Hundred the
first year he was in the National
league, but in 1911 he hit at a .307
clip and in 1912 his record was .308.
This year Daubert has boosted his
stick credit to $50. and there is a
possibility that he may be the bat
ting king In the organization In which
he plays.
DAUBERT HITS HARD
In his first .128 games this year
Daubert procured 165. safeties. going
hitless only In 26 controversies. In
each OF Sc games he made one hit; In
each of 81 two, in each OF 13 three
and in each of two four. His largest
afternoons with the willow were on
July IA and 16. On the first named
date he secured four hits in four
times at bat of Pierce, Overall and
Reulbach Of the Cubs. and on the
last named date he located Jimmy
Lavender OF the Bruins for four
smashes. batting against him five
times.
Daubert has hit at .42s clip
against the Cardinals, and at a 403
pace against the Phillies. The Cub
pitchers have yielded him an average
of $50, the Pittsburg hurlers of .342
and the Red beavers of .339. the Bos-
ton Gunners of $40 and the Giants
artillerists Of .279.
Daubert has made only a dozen err
rors this season and only once has
he committed two misplays in the
same contest. His biggest days work
at the first corner was on April 20.
when he cared for 20 out of Fl chances
that came his way. On April IA he
obtained four assists, which is quite
a lot for first baseman.

Johnson Loses His
Class in Europe

NEW YORK, Oct. 2o.-Ac-
In cording to a letter recent
ly received by Charles Harvey,
secretary fthe state athletic
commission, from Victor B.
Breyer, president Of the French
Association of Boxing Clubs,
Jack Johnson no longer is con-
sidered the heavy weight cham
pion on the other side of the
big pond. Breyer furnishes
Harvey with a list of the
champions as recognized in
European sporting circles. Sam
Langford is accorded the light
heavy weight championship,
and Breyer declares that the
heavy weight title is in dispute
with Sam Langford and Joe
jeanette as joint claimants.
He makes no reference to
Johnson.

By GEORGE H. MASON


Local Rugby teams have prac-
ticaIly only one method Of attack.
showing a lack of versatility.
This all comes under the ideas I
expressed yesterday and only
goes to show that your coaches do
not encourage the players to use
II a man goes into game and
does not carry out the instruc-
tions of his coach, he stands a
very good chance OF being fired OF
the squad.
To my mind the coach who does
this Is undoubtedly throwing of
one of the brainiest men on the
team. / admire the player who is
able to go on the field and use his
heed and bring out a play WHICH
is different to that taught and ex-
pected. Because a coach says
man shall play such and such a
way, it does not follow that the.
coach is right.
1t may be that the player In
game sees an opportunityto solve
the problem with far greater
benefit to his team than what the
coaches ideas have in view. II q
fellow wants to use his head, let
him. Then you, will see your game
develop.
The methods of your coaching
are apparent in every game we
have played. Take the passing Of
your men. Every team we have
played against shows the same
weakness. The men are taught
to pass in only one direction, and
only on very rare occasions has
this been the exception.
SHOULD STUDY PLAY
Every time there is passing
rally your men shoot the ball
out to their left. What is more
simple on such occasions than for
our men to get on the working
side and nip the pass? There is
mo necessity for us to watch the
blind side at all. You always
keep the blind side closed and
never try to work 1t. Further
more, the pass is always made by
all players with the same elabo-
rate methods, which bring about
q loss Of energy.
or bluff the opposition. Your
players always pass to the man
nearest to him. whether that man
Is in a position to take<a pass or
not. why not use your heads
and see which man Is best stu
ated to receive the pass? Why
not try to send the ball some-
times, not to the man nearest
you, but man three or four
places away? Try these things;
practice them. and see what re-
suits will be obtained.
Playing the man rather than
the ball is quite evidently & Leg
acy of the old game. There is
nothing we enjoy more than
hard. strenuous game. but our
strenuous efforts do not go be-
yond the law.
We always keep within the law
when 1t comes to tack1ing or
kicking. The laws do not permit
the players being kicked to death,
but the laws do allow you to kick
the ball from here to New Zealand
and back and kill as many ovaIs
as you please. sKick the ball, not
the man.
LOCALS Make MISTAKES
The laws distinctly state that
you can not tackle q man until he
has possession Of the ball. Here,
however, our men are tackled
when the ball Is yards from them.
They are tackled on the lineouts
when the ball Is flying over their.
heads to q point half way across
the field and 80 wards from whera
they are standing.
Our men are tackled when run
ming down the field dribblfng the
ball. We are tackled at the most
inopportune moments ana without
provocation, as it were. We do
do most strenuously object T.
