GOOD WEATHER
PROMISED FOR
BIG CONTEST
By United Press Leased Wire

PALO ALTO, Cal, Nov. 1S.-Fair
weather was promised the $4,000
|ialumni, students and fans who will
attcnd the annual big game of the
west here tomorrow when the Uni
vcrsity of California Bears and the
Stanford Cardinals battle once more
for gridron supremacy.
4 The two teams relaxed today,
awaiting the great moment of the
year. Coach "Pop' Warner of
Stanford and Coach "Nibs' Price
of California pronounced their
charges in prime condition. Experts
and fans alike were reluctant to-
day to attempt to pick winners,
aside from natural preiudiccs. The
year 's games gives Stanford an ad-
vantage but the power shown by
the Bears against Washington last
week has changed the paper dope.
Coach Price announced his lineup
will consist of weight. His start
ing b.ekficld will he the heavy
members of the squad Evans. LON,
Newman and Dougcry-and full
weight will be thrown into the line.
The announcement. was interpreted
as meaning that the Bears will start
with defensive game, with the
flashv backs-including Barr, ely
mer and Gill-seeing action later in
the game.
Barr ran - yards to cross the
Washington goal last week, only to
be denied n touchdown because Cal
ifornia was offside.
The fast backfield of the Calfor.
mans showed an attack against the
liuskics that makes them real
peril to the Cardinals, and it is prob
able that Price tomorrow will use
strategy similar to that adopted last
week in rushing in his offensive
players when the game is right.
