and the huge Stanford Stadium can
amply accommodate such crowd.
There were special trains from San
Francisco and Los Angeles and
midway points. There were streams
of motor cars reported en- route

There were crowds Of visitors from
the surrounding States.
The little university town wAs

The football team played a number of tie games, but the green basketball quintet was defeated in every start, Baseball is the sport at which the schoolboys excel. and they showed thls by the way they slammed two southlnston pitchers around and by their greatly superior fielding Satur- day.
 Nlcc-Prlncipal Douglas Macdonald threw in the first ball. Southington started off by scoring a first-inning run on a pass and two hits. Wileys hit and base-running tied the score Tn the second. but three singles gave Lewis high a run in the third.

Gerke again started tour-run rally for Plainville, Wiley doubled, Cheetham singled. Peterson hit for two bases, and Arcari hit safely 10 complete the rally. In the sixth Backman was safe on dropped fly, after which Tolli and Cheetham hit consecutive doubles and the rally kept on until another quartet Of runs were in. Three bin- gles gave Southington two vain runs in the seventh, and then the game was called.
 Chectham's batting was powerful. Hackman pitched a nice game, strik- ing out II batters. Muddy" Arcari caught in his usual excellent fash ion and threw out three base-run- ncrs. The box score:
