The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1913-11-01
Kicks From R
zE The Field


The fnaI games prior TO the big one
VIII be played today Over at Berke-
ley the University OF California will
hook up with the New Zealand ALI
Blacks for the third time this season
Though California will not put its
full strength IN the field, the game
gives promise Of being good one.
New Zealand does not expect to make
any record score on the dirt field, but
II does expect to score freely through
out the game.
The New Zealanders arc IN good
shape after the trip to Reno. the high
altitude falling to get the visitors
as 1t usually does local teams. The
ALL Blacks are putting strong team
into the field today and the tricky lit
tie Dick Roberts will be on deck again
and probably show the bleacherites
something sensational In the way of
corkscrew runs, etc.
Down at Stanford Coach Brown In
tends to use his best men In the game
against the Olympic club lads. 1t Is
quite possible that Brown will pull the
men out throughout the game and not
overwork them. but the fact that the
game will start with the stellar play
ers vouches for good contest against
the winged o lads.
FulIback at both California and
California the Blue and Gold is safe
in the thought that they have an
ideal man for the position in Captain
Peart, but it Is robbing the attack to
bring him to the. last line of defense
At Stanford it looks as though An
drews will be permanently kept in
the position, though young Tilton is
slated for reserve fu1lback in today 8
game against the Olympics. 1t Is
possible that both men will be given
q final tryout during the game.

The condition OF the two big teams
lures OF the next week to the respec-
tive trainers. At the present time
both Maloney of Stanford aud voltz
/ of California have their men in good
shape. At both camps there are one
or two cripples, but there are not the
big hospital lists that have been the
case In previous years. The work OF
MaIoney and voltz is fully apprec1-
ated by the students at both colleges
who realize that considerable rests on
the shoulders Of these men,
The additional b1eachers at STAN
ford have been finished and officially
turned over to the Stanford varsity
graduate manager. The bleachers
were built in the open section which
was made through the moving OF the
bleachers when the field had to be en-
larged for the Rugby game Withsthe
additional bleachers the seating CA
pacity at Stanford this year will be
about 1900 and with standing room
it is estimated that 10000 will see the
game
Who will be the touch judges In the
big game? That Is a question that
has still to be settled. Last year Hill
refused to act as referee unless he
was the only official with a whistle.
and also stated that he must appoint
his own touch judges for the big
game. The touch lines are important
positions in this game, and II Hill is
given the power to name his own
linesmen It can be taken for granted
that neither man will have any con-
nection with either California or Stan
ford
The game at Berkeley this afternoon
will probably be repetition of last
years intercollegiate contest 1t prom
ises to be a battle in the mud.

Should the game next Saturday
prove a close one from the standpoint
