Double II eader
Scheduled d For
Stanford Eleven

PALO ALTO, Call, Sept. GA
double-header football bill was on
the program today for the season S
opener in Stanford stadium.
The Young Men S Institute eleven
and the army aggregation from the
prcsidio in San Francisco will meet
the Cardinal warriors. The y. N. |.
game was scheduled for 1880 p. m.
and the second game for 2:30 p. m.
Coach "Fop' Warner expected to
throw forty or more of his players
into today's 5 contests to give them
a chance to show up their posslbih-
ties in actual combat.
The strength of the y. NJ. !. is as
yet unmeasurcd. while the Cardinals
should have easy going with the
army team, judging from the lat
ter's bad beating by the San Fran
cisco Olympic club last Sunday.
Warner leans strongly to the idea
Of q doublc-hcader on the opening
dav of the football season because
it gives him an opportunitr to try
out most of his men at tic very
start.
