EDDIE PULLEN IN
NEW WORLD RECORD

Driving the speedy little Mercer in
which Spencer Wishart lost his life
at Elgin, H., last summer, Eddie Pull
len, pride of the Mercer camp, yestcr-
day won the greatest automobile race
ever won, when he flashed across the
tape at Corona, after going tie 300
miles at pace that set new worlds
record high above the former mark.
The former record was 1872, estab-
lished by Teddy Tetzlaff at Santa
Monica in 1912. Pullen's average was
86.5 miles per hour. His running
time was 3:26:02.
Ed O'Donell, who several times
seemed to be hopelessly out of the race
with his Ruesenberg, was second; Bar
Eney Oldfeld, in a Maxwell, third;
Ralph De Palma, fourth; Huntley
Gordon, in a Gordon Special, fifth;
Billy Carlson, in Maxwell, sixth.
The winners will divide $4,000
purse as follows: First, $4,000 and
$4,000 additional for new worlds
record; second, $1,000; third, $1,000;
fourth, $1,000; fifth, 800; sixth, $500.
The race was replcte with thrills
provided by the close brcahes of the
speed kings ell around the course and
at times sending the cars swerving
to either side of the course. A crowd
of $4,000 speed-loving fans saw the
race.
The only accident of consequence
was caused by the burning up of Har-
ry Grants Sunbeam. With his mech
anician, Harold Smith, Grant leaped
from the car before the explosion
came. The fire ignited telephone
pole and the Corona fire department.
was called out to extinguish the blaze.
Grant, his hair and eyebrows singed
and his face bruised, stood watching
/ his car burn as tears coursed down
1 his cheeks.
Earl Cooper was the hard luck boy
of the race. He was in his 10th lap
in second position and would have
been signaled with the green flag
when he next appeared in front of the
stands, when his Stutz went back on
him, the timing gear broke and he
was hopelessly out of the race.

u. s. C. Beaten.

Tacoma, Nov. PA clever manip-
ulation of the forward pass saved the
University of Southern California
football team from blank score here
in their battle against the heavy Ore
gon Agricultural College eleven, who
defeated them AZ to in the Stadium.
1t was the first touchdown scored
against the Aggies this year, for the
best that has been done against them
was three points scored by the Uni
verify of Washington champs in tie
game early in the season.
The game was for the benefit of
the Belgian Relief Fund and nom
partisan crowd cheered the Californi-
ans all during the terrible grind
against big odds. The Trojans were
outweighed about 20 pounds to the
man and the Oregon Aggies played a
hard smashing game, but the Uni
versity of Southern California proved
that the art of basketball can be
transferred to the football field. Their
line, however, was not able to with
stand the battering attacks of the Ag-
gies.

EI Centric Defeats HOltville.

The Ell Centre High School foot
ball team proved it's worth yesterday
by defeating the Holtville High by a
score of SO to 0.
1t looks like a walkaway for Ell
Centric, to lock at the score, but it was
far from it. The Holtville eleven was
game to the last. They made des-
perate rally in the last quarter, which
almost gave them touchdown, but
the Ell Centro defense was too strong.
Considering that they have had to
coach themselves nearly altogether
makes them worthy of much praise.
Ell Centro made two touchdowns
within the first five minutes of play.
Starritt made the first by recovering
g fumbled ball. Williams made one
touchdown by an end run. Tilton
made one by line plunge and Ha-
man made four by forward passes and
one by intercepting a forward pass.
The star players were Tilton, the
captain, with his end runs and by the
use of the stiff arm; Herschel Will
hams, who made many end runs, as
no one could overtake him; Haman,
who made many gains in receiving the
forward passes; Aten, by his good
tackling; Starritt, Nuffer, R. Tilton
and Herr, on their line plunges, and
Hobby on the way he handled the
plays.
The student body boosted the team
by attending the game in large num-
bers and with their songs and yells
helped Ell Centro to make a large
score. Thirty six went over on the
High School REQ truck and great
many went in their own machines or
by stage.
Next Saturday game is to be
played with Imperial and much en-
thusiasm and excitement is manifest
already.

San Diego Beats Whittier.

San Diego, Nov. 27.-Showing a
complete reversal of form, San Diego
High at the Coronado polo grounds
this afternoon smothered the Whittier
eleven by score of 10 to 0. The To-
cal team completely outclassed the
northerners, scoring repeatedly on
long forward passes and runs. Les
Dana, captain of the local high school
Team, played stellar game, tearing
repeatedly through rWhittier's line for
long gains.

Calexico, Nov. 2e.- Fin the Imperial
Valley League, CaleSlco, with Gregg
pitching, beat the Brjawley team by
a score of to !. while the score
was one sided, many brilliant plays
mingled with errors and base hits
kept the interest at white heat during
the entire game.

Tucson Beats Pomona.

Tucson, Ariz., Nov. 27.-The Uni
versity of Arizona defeated the strong
Pomona team yesterday by a score OF
z to 6, winning the championship of
California, Arizona and New Mexico.
The Pomona backs plowed through
the weaker Arizona line for repeated
gains, but lost on fumbles and missed
forward passes.
In the fourth quarter, after march
ing down the field by succession Of
line bucks to the Arizona two-yard
line, they lost the ball when Given,
halfback, was tackled behind the line
on an end run, ending their efforts
to score.
The Pomona team scored in the first
quarter after five minutes of playing
by smashing wickedly through the
Arizona line at tackle and by short
ends and shift plays. Heath failed to
kick goal after Adams had made the
touchdown.
The desert team then began to
fight and the rest of the quarter went
without score.
The second quarter was featured by
the failure of Pomona to accomplish
their forward passes, while Porter and
Mcpherson, by series of brilliant
passes, brought the ball down to Po-
mona's 1O-yard line, where Luis was
finally pushed over for Arizona's lone
touchdown. Crawford kicked goal.
The third quarter saw the ball
chiefly in Arizona's territory, but the
effort of Pomona to score ended by
fumbles and missed place kick by
Green from the 2O-yard line.
In the fourth quarter Pomona tried
hard to win and smashed the Tucson
line time and again, only to lose the
hall finally on their opponents two
ward line when it was punted out of
the danger line.
The game ended with futile efforts
of the Californians to win by tricks,
fakes and passes.
Adams, at full, played brilliant ball
for the visitors, as did Captain Heath
at tackle.
Coach Stanton said tonight that his
team had lost by their fumbles and
failure to hold forward passes. The
team returns tomorrow.

Reno, New, Nov. 27.-The Univer-

manifested their superiority. The
score at the end of the first half was
II to 8, the home team scoring their
only points on free kick.
