STANF0RD'S SICK INDIAN BECOMES
MEAN WARRIOR UNDER SHAUGHNESSY
Now Universally Regard
ed As Team To Be
ReckOned With
BY SAM JACKSON
APP Feature Service Writer

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. Is
Clark D. Shaughnessy. the foot
ball coach who last season suf-
fered the ignominy of an 87-tO-0
defeat and then had his school
the University Of ChicagO-sim-
ply fold up its football team and
turn him adrift, IS once more
riding high.
Seldom has a gridiron mentor
made such an instantaneous i'm
preston on the press and public
OF the Pacific Coast.
He has taken the sick Indian"
which is what the plying fans
have been calling great
Stanford-and turned him into a
strong and dangerous warrior.
What the rest of the tough
coast conference schedule holds
for ShaughneSSy and his team is
uncertain, but simply on per
formances to date the erstwhile
J Chicago U. coach is a hit. Stan
ford has beaten the University of
San Francisco q to 0. the Uni
Yersity Of Oregon 13 to 0, and
Santa Clara to 6.
San Francisco is not big-time
school, but its 1910 team IS
tough one and it took the field a
1O-to-7 favOrite.
In 1899 Stanford had a diSas-
trous season and Coach Tiny
Thornhill was let out Shaughnes-
sy, who had just become Chi
cago's coach without a team,
was available.
ChicagO's dismal record was
not in his favor, but it was easy
to remember his accomplish
ments at Tulane and LOyola of
New Orleans and the deal was
closed.
During spring practice reports
got around that the Stanford In
dams would be vastly different
team. The material is practically
the same but early games showed
vastly improved club.
Against San Francisco Shaugh-
nessy's crew ran its entire offenSe
off the ''T'' formation employed
by the professional Chicago Bears.
The quarterback took the ball
from center on every play 'Psy-
Geological blockers' sped off to
different parts of the gridiron.
The pass deployment was skilled,
crafty and confusing. Timing was
excellent.
San Francisco couldn't figure
out a defense and Oregon'S Tex
Oliver. scouting the Indians,
frankly admitted he'd have to
stay awake nights to do so-and
it turned out that he failed too.
Classed pretty generally as a
second division team on the basis
of material, Stanford is now uni
versally regarded as something to
reckon with. From the fans
standpoint the team is a good
one to watch.

BARRIERS BEAT
IO2
Meme Castro Twirled Two
Hit Ball; Late VP53
Rally Failed

Sawye's BARRIERS went to vic
tory over the VP53's last night at
Bayview Park in an exhibition
softball game for the benefit OF
the local chapter of the Red
Cross.
The contest was hard-fought
from start to finish and would
have resulted in a 10 score in
favor of the BARRIERS had both
teams played a better defensive
game.
Meme Castro held the heavy
hitting Airmen, leaders of the
Service League of the Key West
Amateur SoftbaIl Association. to
two safeties. For five innings he
BANKED the opposition and for
four frames held them hitlesS.
A single in the fifth canto by
catcher Jackmore was the first
safety garnered off his delivery.
Another nit IN the sixth, COM
bined with mOmentary wildneSS
by Castro and two errors gave the
VP53's all of their runs.
BARRIERS took the lead in the
third with a single run and added
a lone marker in each the fifth
and sixth innings. A late poten-
tial rally by the Airmen in the
seventh, with the tying marker
on third, was ended without any
damage. Byars, last man to face
Castro, popped out to short to
end the game.
Only extra-base blow of the
contest was secured by Monk
Kerr. leftfielder of the victors, a
tWO-bagger.
A number of the VP53's 7ap-
peared in the new uniform of the
team. white top shirts and shorts.
Shorts are of blue material with
a white stripe.

Dan Beard Forgiving
National Boy Scout Com missioner Relates His
 Little Story
AP Feature Service

SUFFERIN, N. r., July 20. - Uncle Dan Beard, one of She founders of the Boy Scouts of America, isn't training any more for a meeting with certain young na- val officers"
 Now that he's getting ready to be 90 years old on June 2l, Uncle Dan is happy about the whole thing. It started with his crooked index finger which kept him from passing a physical examination for entrance at the U. S. Naval Acad- emy.
 Uncle Dan points the crooked fin ger as he tells the story;
 q went to Gideon Welles, then Secretary of the Navy. He just toss ed a rifle at me, bayonet fixed. caught it naturally, then he patted me on the back, dipped me through the manual of arms, and wrote out an order to pass me in my physi- cal examinations.
 But this was over the heads of academy authorities"
 Uncle Dan now believes the acad- emy officers tried to confuse him into failure. He says they asked him to spell "sep-ER R-ate.' He spelled it like that. He lost the appointment.
 Well, I learned to lift 750 pounds in gymnasium, I could raise a 100-pound dumbell; learned to box. felt it would be a sorry day for these young naval professors if I ever met them"
 Now, he's happy he did spell it "sep-ER- ate"
 If I hadn't: I would probably be retired admiral, away from the ship I love, sitting home chewing my finger nails-and not the Ma tional Boy Scout Commissioner who had the opportunity to spend my life as the champion of our splen- did boys
 Uncle Dan is an artist who once illustrated Mark Twain's books, and who still regularly draws illustra- tions for the Scouts magazine. During June the Library of Con gress will have. an exhibition of Boards illustrations.

Current Drop Extended
To More Than 81 in

BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, March 2.-Cotton
futures piled up fresh losses today,
extending to more than 81 bale the
declines of the weeks closing ses-
sions. Final prices were down 8 to
8 points.
The price battle was keenly fought
throughout the short session.
Encouraged by signs the long
awaited early 1910 revival in textiles
was under way, large spot houses
big vigorously for contracts.
Pressure Of foreign offerings was
too much to withstand, however,
since Bombay poured a steady
stream Of offerings into the ring.
Combined With this were hedging
sales in the March delivery and New
Orleans pressure.
Bombay selling was again in
fiuenced by declines in foreign mar
kets. the Indian accounts merely
taking advantage of price differ
ences existing between New York
and Bombay.
Worth Street estimates indicated
the current weeks sales of cloth
were the largest since the start of
the year. Although business early
in the week was done at the expense
OF prices, mills stopped granting con-
cessions toward the close.
Exports Friday, 1856 bales; sea-
son so far, 1854 ,664. Port receipts,
