2 Worried Teams
In California AS
Result of Games
by United Press Leased Wire

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 29.-The
Pacific coast football situation to-
day resolved itself into cxultant and
two badly frightened major teams.
Washington State and the Uni
versity of Southern California were
exultant with just right.
California and Stamford were
frightcncd-with equal reason.
The defeat of Stanford by U. S.
c. Saturday IA to 7 was no less
blow to the Cardinals than was Cal
ifornia s inability to do better than
defeat Washington State 8 to 0, a
blow to California.
Many critics had considered both
U. $. G. and Washington State
"wcak'' teams. Stanford threw
away it's game with U. S. c., but
even the most ardent Stanford fol-
lowers had to admit that the Tro-
jams could not have won unless they
knew how and could play football.
The 9 to 0 score which gave victory
to California over Washington State
was the smallest score California
has run up in three seasons with
the exception of the tie she played
with Washington and jefferson at
Pasadena two years ago.

games.

Firpo Attained
Reputation for
Telling Truth
BY HENRY L. FARRELL
United Press Sports Editor

NEW YORK. October 29.-In ad-
dition to accunulating nice pile
of money during the process of be-
ing built up as an opponent for
Jack Dempeys, Luis Angel Firpo,
the big South American, made
many friends.
Firpo has smartly decided to
spend lot Of his time in the Unit
ed States and lie is not actuated by
purely mercenary motives. T h e
South American likes the United
States, he feels kindly toward the
people and realizes that this coun-
try has been good to him.
All Of the writer's who followed
Firpo through his training for the
Dempsey fight grew to like him as
most of them like the champion.
Firpo's frankness, quality of
character that is rare among pugil-
lists, gained for him a confidence
from the newspapermen that he
might well boast of. Few figures
of professional sport have estab-
lished the reputation for veracity
that Firpo earned with the writers.
While he was training in Atlantic
City for the Dempsey fight, party
of newspapermen visited bis cot
tage and found rubber working
industriously on his left arm. Some
casual inquiries were voiced by the
scribcs and Firpo replied that he
boI hoon bothered for Sevnr,1 1uvS
with an attack Of neuritis.
Under ordinary procedure, Firpo
would have been forced by a man
ager to cover UP his ailnent, or #
there would be some purpose in hav-
ing it noised about that he was
not in physical shape, more open
means of drawing it to the atten-
tion of the press would have been
followed.

SATURDAY GAMES
SHOW UP STRONG
TEAMS in EAST
NOtre Dame Has Routed
Army, Princeton and
Georgia Tech
BY HENRY L. FARRELL
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Oct. 29.-Notre
Dame, Michigan, California, Yale,
Cornell, Dartmouth, Syracuse, Illi-
nois and Chicago, now stand as the
major undefeated elevens of the
country.
Notre Dame, Michigan, California
and Cornell perhaps come close to
being the class of the undefeated
teams as the big elevens swing into
the hard November schedules.
Pen State and West Virginia, two
of the strongest teams in the east,
slipped niomentarily from the sec
tional leaders Saturday when they
engaged in q tie score battle.
Harvardss defeat by Dartmouth
and Princeton 8 tie score with the
Navy after losing to Notre Dame,
made Yale the only undefeated
team of the" big Three and made
prospects bright for Yale cham
pionship in the old sacred circle.
Dartmouth, for the time being, is
up with the big teams of the coun!
try because of the crushing defeat
it gave Harvard Saturday, but
just ahead is the Cornell game
next Saturday, which will be big
test for both teams.
Notre Dame Biggest
Notre Dame, if it is possible to
arrive at such a deduction, looks
like the big team of the year this
side of the Pacific coast. No team
in the country has equalled the dar-
ing of the .Notre Dame eleven,
which on successive Saturdays
routed the Army, Princeton and
Georgia Tech. =
There are no figures available by
which Notre Dame and California
may be compared, but the two
teams may meet in q post season
game that should come closer than
any game in the past TO give line
on the "national Champion
California, Michigan and Wash.
ington are the only major teams in
the country that have not been
scored upon, but Dartmouth, SYRIA
cuse and Wisconsin have uncrossed
goal lines.
Cornell is the leading scoring
team in the country with 1877 points.
Colgate has scored 16S, Syracuse
164, the Army 162 and Notre Dame
161.

the loss of bonus. This item has not
din the past been a charge against the
Districts allowable estimates. The
second cause arises as the result OF
the necessity confronting the Com.
missioners Of reducing the funds for
a number. of important activities
materially below the appropriations
granted for those purposes in the
fiscal year 1924"
1t has been necessary to reduce
the school building construction
item to almost 100000 less than
the current years appropriation, the
letter shows. The sum asked for
construction, it is stated, is suffi-
cient only to complete four build
ings now under contract.
Provisions for continuing motori-
zation of the fire departments, and
for the acquisition of land for the
Rock Creek and Potomac parkway
are entirely eliminated.
Major Donovan is preparing an
other letter to refer directly and in
detail to the supplemental csti-
mates, with. an argument for each
item submitted.

NORFOLK, Va, Sept. 1S.-At a
conference between steamship Off
Gals, immigration authorities and
members of the NorfolkrP Ports
mouth Chamber of Commerce, a
determined effort will be made to
divert a part of the stream of i'm
migration traffic to this port.
The chief advantage of this port
is the cheap coal bunkering
Another advantage would be the
diverting of the southern Euro
pean immigrant tide to the south
where climatic conditions would be
more favorable and because south

particularly in Louisiana.
DIR. Hugh De Valin, United
States Public Health Service, in

here, states that facilities are
