Marks Beginning.

Simplilcation of the Chinese written
language has led to new era of think
ing In China that Is being marked by

China
The present Chinese renaissance Is
the fifth that country has experienced

"a city like Peking Is the most stimu-
lating place in the world today intel
lectually" 1t was claimed
The history of the split between
written and spoken Chinese which eX-
listed over 1000 years was traced by
DR.. Hummel. who pointed out that 1t
was on January /. 1917, that eight
principles for the reconstruction of the
Chinese language were laid down by a
leading writer. and 1t Is from that day
that the Chinese date their present
renaissance.
Reduces Characters.
The application OF those principles
has Brought q reduction of the number
OF Chinese characters from ~ 600. to
about 1000. the speaker said. Americans,
he said. can now learn Chinese in two
or three years instead of eight or ten.
With the stimulation brought about
by their simplified language, many Chi
nese have turned TO writing, DR.. Hum
mel said

Cards Favored
To Beat Vandals
By United Press Leased Wire

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1S.-Fac-

the season, with Stanford University
tomorrow afternoon, the University
of Idaho Nandals were due to arrive
here this morning. The Idaho eleV-

in San Francisco in a decade.
Charlie Erb, Idaho coach, is bring
ing heavy team 80 San Francisco

ence opinion, based largely on prac-
tee game showing, makes them the
underdog in tomorrow fray.
Stanford, starting slowly, has
been coming with a rush for three
weeks and the squad in its last
two games has shown Il powerful
offensive that looks like the most
dangerous in the conference.

COLORED BOYS
HEAD CARD AT
LOCAL ARENA

Two valley colored battlers will be
given ample opportunity to prove
just how good they are when they
enter the ring at the Arena Friday
night. They are Andrew "Deacon "
Brooks and Homer Gaines.
The Deacon is slated to fight
things out with Sailor Roger Wag-
ner junior welterweight champion
of the Pacific Coast fleet, in the
final of two eight round main
events. In the first of these head
liners Gaines will clash with Joe
Ortego of San Diego, boy who
two years ago was good enough to
turn in win over frankie ARA
gon.
Andy Brooks deserves much cred
it for his showing in recent battles
at the Arena and has won his way
to the main event chance offered
him Friday night. Jimmie Meadow
brook of San Bernardino was
brought here for the purpose of
giving Andy trimming He came
very near turning the trick the
first time, but a few minutes later
was stretched on the canvas, knock
ed out In second attempt he man
aged to save himself from a knock
out but was badly defeated.
Then along came Burt Wagner
TO arise from the floor where he had
been sat by Andy and knock Andy
kicking. But week later Wagner
also fell before the powerful blows
of the colorcd boy.
Two weeks ago Andy put up a
very good exhibition against boy
who is one of the best battlers ON
the coast and though he was defeat
ed, Andy gave him a few worries
before the final bell was sounded.
Gaines Comes Back
In a fight last Friday Homer
Gaines showed all his old time form
to win by a knockout in a little
less than two minutes. Gaines will
need to don his best fighting togs
Friday night when he clashes with
Ortego for Joe is IA boy who fights
every inch of the way and the re-
suit should prove interesting.
In the special four rounder Friday
night Benny Castanas of Mazatlan,
Mexico, who recently arrived in the
states, will meet Andy Armstrong.
Castanas looks like a conner in fis-
Tie ranks and should give the Holt
Vile colorcd boy Il tough four
rounds.
Robert Pacho of Yuma will clash
with Henry Inlowe in the opening
bout. Both boys are of the slugger
type aud should raise the curtain
with lively scuftlc.

Bears Prepare
Surprise Part.y
For Trojan Team
BY United Press Leased Wire

BERKELEY, Oct. IS. - Secret
practice continued at the Univer-
sity of California today as the
Bears entered the final lap of prep
aration for their crucial game with
University of Southern California
1roians Saturday.
An old military axiom, the gist
of which is to keep the enemy guess
ing, is guiding Nibs Price in his
movements during the week ana the
result is crop of rumors ard re
PORTS of every description.
Out of this maize of conjecture has
come one definite conclusion and
that is that Price is preparing 4
surprise for the Trojans. Generally
it is believed that this surprise will
he an entirely new backfield com
bination.
The bears have barred their fangs
and shown an alright defense when
ever their goal line has been crossed
this season, but their attack has
been a disappointment. Nibs Price
has been as badly disappointed as
anyone else and there is little doubt
that the California mentor has bent
every effort this week toward i'm
proving that attack.
But, despite California s efforts
toward building up more power of
assault, the Trojans ruled favorites
here today. The Troians scoring ma
chine, built up around Don Williams,
has created mighty respect for it
and no one expects to see the game
end without brace or moro of
touchdowns on the southern side of
the scoreboard. And few are OPP
timistic enough to believe the Bears
can score more or as may.
