HUNDREDS BATTLE,
TO SEE STANFORD'S
FIVE BEST u. s. c.
by United Press Leased Wire

LOS ANGELES, Feb. II. -
Stanford goes back to Palo Alto
today better bask etball team than
University of Southern California
having shown their superiority last
night, 81 to 23, as several thouSari
extra fans hung around the paw
lion, vainly seeking to get in.
AS far as games were concerned
the two colleges split even, but the
Cardinals demonstrated i'll the see
ond of the two-game series that
it is the best five in every depart
ment of basketball.
Ken Boyer started the wild even
ing off with Il couple OF baskets
that served to incite the visitors
to- the highest pitch of ferocity,
Boyer certainly showed the Stan
ford lads good time all evening.
tNevcrs, big Cardinals forward,
and McHose staged an offensive
that completely baffled the slug
gish Trojan guards. Nevers was
taken out of the contest early III
the second half because of person
al fouls.
The half ended II TO il, but when
the second whistle blew Coach An
dy Kerr put his polished technique
into action, enabling his men to
keep a couple of points ahead the
rest of the game.
U. S. C's. championship hopes
went glimmering into the mythical
realm of dream castles.

|D}EESCREP ANCY In
MARKS WEIGHT is
cause OF PENALTY
'Rickard Set Back to Tune
of $1,000; Others
Punished

NEW YORK, Feb. 14.--With a re-
fsounding smack, the first swing of
Fthe newly reorganized New York
(boxing commission landed flush on
lthc whiskcrs of the well known Tex
Rickard.
The punch not only set Rickard
back on his heels, but it knocked the
whole town dizzy and sent the
wolves wh1mpering to the timbers.
For failing adequately to notify
the public that George Marks was
Efour pounds overweight and that the
fPancho Villa-Marks bout last week
kcould not involve a championship,
Rickard was ordered to accept the
lpenalty of forfeiting one fight card
/ at Madison Square Garden.
n AS things have been going recent
nv at the Garden, the little valentine
1 that was tossed at Rickard today
meant substantially fine of hardly
less than $1,000, which is quite a
fine from any court.
Rickard was sore today. but not
at the commission. He felt again
that the managers were getting him
in bad and doing some mole tricks
to hurt the game.
Says He'll Cooperate
81 II take that suspension and not
/ say word,' Rickard said. 81 we
! got the biggest club in the state and
| / II show the others how oaccept
disc gpline. The commission is there
to run the business and III help all
| can.
"But,' he continued, "you can
believe me that no match will be
made again in the Garden where
weight is an important factor un-
less forfeit is posted that will
| protect me-. -
The commission set Marks aud his
manager, Charley Cook, down for 60
days for failing to make the stipa-
lated weight of l12 pounds. Frank
Churchill, Villa s manager, was also
suspended for so days because he
failed to collect or refused to accept
the $3.50 forfeit which had been
posted as Marks weight guarantee.
RYckard was disciplined not only
because the commission felt he did
not let the public know that it could
not have been a championship bout
but because he had failed to have
the forfeit money posted.

The taxi meter read S1.20, SO the

read:
The driver of this car can not
afford to drive it at 20 cents a mile
and feed his family"
The deceptive $50 cents mile"
was in large letters. The rest Of
the sign could not be read except
by close scrutiny.
