2 SEATTLE CHECKS ANGELIC SPRINT • SIWASHES BOMBARD BAUM FOR SIXTEEN HITS Morleyites Lose Their Usual Weekly , Game by Failing to Hit 'Em Out at Opportune Moments Los Angeles 1, Seattle 7 After making a runaway race of the last half of the season's chase for the rag, the Seraphs were brought up with a sharp jerk yesterday ana Seut tlo scampered away with the locals' scalp, tune being played in a 7 to 1 nieter. The Morleyites evidently became so Intoxicated with their long string of victories that they didn't care so awful iruch about one wee game and thought tn give the braves from the north one chance. They nabbed it. However, Morley isn't of a grumbling nature when it comes to losing one game a week and says "we can't win every game." Yesterday's result sets no precedent for the future and the winning streak will be resumed today. It is Dolly Gray's turn to the slab and the upward climb is sure to be started again and then on for the hunting. The way those Slwashes tenk to Hones Baum was one shame. Sixteen hits, spread all over the scenery, was the way Morley's elongated human ma chine was treated and the swats were elu.-k in Where they did the moat good. Charlie Hall, who was the pie server for Ills eighteenth cousin, Russell Hull, was put in a pocket several times by the locals, but, by nook or by crook, the pride of the bean fields escaped un scathed. No less than three times the Seraphs were occupying three pil lows at once, but in only one instance were they able to send a man over the spot which rings the bell. Bobby Eager furnished the action for a lot of work by the noisy fans when he nailed a difficult foul back of third bn.se, and sent Bennett back to the shade of tlie bench. Croll, in the left loft for Seatle, also grabbed a nice one out of the ozone, and brought down the house for a spell. The S graphs amused the spectators in the first round by pulling off as fancy a play as most of the fins on tho local lot get a chance to nee for the money. With Bennett on third base Walters came through with a hot one that Flcod speared after a gallant effort. The ball was fielded home and Eager tabbed Be.inett. just before the husky catcher went down for the count. Walters tried to sneak down to "sec ond on the play, but Bones Baum was there with the eagle eye and grabbing the ball from the prostrate Eager, sent the sphere down to the keystone station in time to resistor a. put out against the Indians. That furnished the best part nf the excitement and the other eight and a half Innings read as follows: LOS ANGELKS ABRBHSBPO AE Bernard, cf 4 0 1 0 a 1 v Mlddleton, 2b 1 0 0 0 1 2 0 Flood, 2b 2 0 0 0 1 2 0 Smith, 3b 3 0 1 0 2 0 0 Brashear. ss 1 1 0 0 2 1 3 Dillon, lb 4 0 2 0 9 0 0 Cravath. rf 4 0 1 0 0 0 0 Ross.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal., Oct. 26. — The Stanford team, coach and trainer left for the south tonight on the Sunset limited. They will reach Los Angoles to morrow ut noon and take up quarters . at the Angelus hotel. Owing to bad cold, Henny Fenton, the wonderful little quarter, v/ 111 not be able to make the trip. The tean will therefore be deprived of the ser vices of the clever field general and i good punter and drop kicker. Htott, the old reliable 'varsity quar ter, who has just recovered from an ii.^ury, will direct the maneuvers of Ihe team. He will probably not last throughout the game and In this event Loumelster will take his place. The following twenty-two . will irake the trip: Molflno and Cox, centers; Irlzzell, R. A. Thompson, Lane, S. B. Thompson, guards; Norton, Pemberton, Gay Crawford, tackles; Stanford, Lyons, Lamb, Koerner, ends; Stott, Liiumelster, quarterbacks; Chalmers, Rook, Dole, Vandervoort, halfbacks; Crow and Bogle, fullbacks. Everything you want you will find in the classified page — a modern encyclo pedia. Ono cent a word. LOS ANGELES HERALD! FRIDAY MORNING/OCTOBER 27, 1905. , STANFORD IS WEAKENED; INDIANS STRENGTHENED BRAVES MORE FAVORED THAN WITH BERKELEY Illness of Kenny Fenton, Field General for Cardinals, Is a Severe Blow, While Hempel's Eleven Will Line Up More Formidably Than Ever Indications are that a larger crowd will witness the Stanford-Indian game tomorrow afternoon at Fiesta park than was present at the Sherman-Berkeley contest last Saturday, as the advance sale of tickets is considerably in ex cess of the same period of last week. Coach Lanagan and Trainer "Dad" Moulton of the Cardinals, with twenty-two men, will arrive this morn ing on the Coast line, at 11:20 o'clock and take apartments at the Angelus. Manager Barrett of the Stanford team, who has been in the south for several days, said yesterday that he expects a close game and does not be lieve that the score will reach the di mensions of last Saturday's go with Berkeley. Word was received last night that Fenton will not be able to make the trip on account of illness. This causes the Indian stock to rise, for Stott, who was to have played right end, must re turn to quarter. "The ends arc our weak position." said Manager Barrett yesterday after noon, "and that is the reason that Stott, who is the best quarter of the squad, was to have played end." Just who is to hold down right end will not be known until the arrival of the Stanford team this morjiing, but evidently there will be a weakness on the Cardinal line. Hempel Shifts Men Coach Hempel has shifted his team considerably and the iine-up will present a different appearance as the men come on the field tomorrow afternoon. With Neaphua at quarter the team will be an entirely different aggregation and the defense has been braced by sending Lugo behind the line, Tortes going to right end. With Gait and Magee as the other backs there will be three big men to meet the Cardinal of fense. The following statement from Hempel gives some idea as to the team's con dition: "Our boys were completely demoral ized when Neaphua, Magee and Coleman were forced to leave the game early in the first half. That, together with the fact that the Berkeley game was our first hard contest, made it possible for Berkeley to run up such a score. "We had some minor bruises and slight Injuries, but the men will all be in good shape to play the game next Saturday and retrieve the poor show ing of last week. "The only man seriously hurt was Loupy Lugo, a substitute half back, who filled in after Magee was kicked in the head. He has three fractured ribs and will not be able to play for some time. Neaphus' injury was only a slight one." The line-up for the game Is as fol lows: STANFORD. SHERMAN. Molflno c D. Coleman Thompson r. g.

Thirty days ago Battling Nelson, Abe Attell and Jimmy Britt would probably have hooted Terry outside bounds had he seriously mentioned fight to them. It is all different now. Terry "came bnck" with a vengeance and demon strated that his frenzied fighting of olden days was all regained and very much with him. How terribly and speedily he pun ished Murphy is history. And that Terry is seemingly in as good form as he ever was is also apparent. He seeks better game than Murphy, and on hia showing last week is entitled to it. Young Corbett's return to the ring was not so much of a success. The contrast between McGovern, the con quered, and Young Corbett, the con queror, in their bids for fight favors is distinct. Terry is seeking a match with TJat tling Nelson, but his friends urgo him to a less strenuous pace. McGovern as a featherweight and McGovern as a lightweight are entirely different things. Terry could outpoint and out fight tho Battler over a limited route, but he has no show, even in his beat condition, with a twenty-round or fur ther fight with the lightweight. Abe Attell has issued a challenge to McGovern. Able, despite the fact that he took a beating from Young Erne a short time ago. and disregarding the knockout handed him by Tommy Sulli van of St. Louis last year, signs his challenge "featherweight champion of the world." If Abe possesses the laurels, It is McGovern's right and privilege to go after It. And there are those who will put down real money to back him in a match with Abe. McGovern was one of the few cham pions who succeeded in mounting a pedestal where the populace could adore him, and no more popular champ ever existed among the little fellows than Terrible Terry. It would be a clay of great rejoicing in many quarters if Terry would really return to form and cop the featherweight title. SUB ELEVENS PLANNING GAME Scrub Squads of Occidental and Po. mona Arranging for Meeting at Highland Park Monday The second Occidental team, which looms up as one of the strongest sub elevens in the city, may play the scrubs of Pomona college on the High land Park campus Monday afternoon, If arrangements now pending are com puted. Both elevens have been playing close practice games with the first tenrrs iind a gruelling contest is anticipated if they come together. Coach Mnvrlil telleves that his scrub aggregation la In many respects the equal of the 'varsity squad and has expressed It as his opinion that they could win Iron high school. The men are under the direction of "Bill" Edwards, a member of the cham pionship team of '95, and are heavy for a second eleven. Pomona has always put out a strong minor team and this year's squad is said to be no exception. THROOP TO PLAY REDLANDS The Throop football eleven will play the Redlands eleven at Redlands to morrow afternoon. The Throop team Is not as strong as in previous years, but there are several individual players who are being counted upon to hold the orange belt aggregation to a close score. ' ... V, •. In order to aid the, police In main taining: order on the occasion ot a re cent motor race, the authorities of the town of .Rezemburir, Germany, com pelled all local cyclists to enroll them selves amone the police, '. HOLMES DEVELOPS UNIVERSITY TEAM SQUAD IS SHOWING GREAT IMPROVEMENT Raw Material Responds Readily to the Magic Touch of the Coaoh and a Promising Eleven Results Slowly but surely Coach Holmes of the University of Southern California is rounding the raw material which formed the early season squad at the west end institution into a likely looking football team. The games thus far have been with elevens whose strength did not war rant a' comparison with the heavier teams of the south, but Holmes now declares that he has the team which will bring homo the championship. According to Holmes, the men aver age 163 pounds, which is not heavy for a college eleven. A glance at the Haigler brothers would lead one to believe that the figures were low, but there are several men whose weight is slight for a 'varsity team. Frank Cass at right end is the light est man on a college team in the south, tipping at 122 pounds. His age, which is fifteen years, also makes him resemble academic material, , ■ but Holmes speaks in the highest terms of the form which he has displayed In practice games during the season- Ochoa at full ' has developed into something of a place kicker and has put them over at forty yards. Capt. Elliott at left end Is one of the speediest men on the squad and extremely fast at getting down the field under a punt. Best at quarter is running the men in good style and there is not the continual fumbling that threatened to prove a serious factor against Univer sity success at the beginning of the season. ...:... ■ , The Haigler boys stand head and shoulders above the remainder of the eleven in stature and are relied upon by Holmes to bear a good part of the brunt in the coming games. The company F team will line up against the university men Saturday afternoon for another practice game. The former meeting of the elevens resulted in a score of 28 to 0 in favor of the university. The following have made their posi tions with a list of others fighting It out for several undecided places: Chester Haigler, center; Lavoni, left guard; Bockman, left tackle; Elliott, left end; Westover, right tackle; Shute, right end; Best, quarter back; Ochoa, full back; Burek, White and C. Haigler, halves; Cass, Critten and Bunker, left guard. POMONA TO PLAY UNIVERSITY Resumption of Friendly Relations to Begin With Football Game December 9 The game between Pomona and the university has been practically sched uled to occur December 9, as Coach Holmes of the university received a letter from the Pomona management yesterday asking for a game on that date. Holmes said that he certainly would agree to the time and all that now remains to put the two colleges on a playing footing is to draw articles for the contest. For several years the Institutions severed football relations and local promoters of the sport are pleased at the revival of athletics. OCCIDENTAL AND HIGH MAY PLAY SECOND GAME DIFFERENCES AS TO HALVES HAS BEEN ADJUSTED Coaches Merrill and Roesch Cast Aside Disagreements Over Time Limits and Prospects Are Bright for An. other Meeting Between the Squads The Los Angeles high school football team and the Occidental college eleven in all probability will meet for tho second time on the gridiron before the season has closed. Coach Merrill of the Highland Park team and Coach Itoesch of the high school eleven expressed themselves yes terday as perfectly willing to play off file tie of two weeks ago, and the gamo may occur soon after the Belmont high school game on November 4. Merrill, in speaking of the proposed game, eaid: "We are willing to meet high school for any length halves from five minutes to the limit. Roesch de clared that two fifteen-minute halves would be acceptable, with the provi sion that the game is to occur after the meeting with Belmont. •■•"",,. It is safe to assume that a second struggle between the two elevens would be a drawing card, as in the previous contest high school had the best of the argument. The collegians are steadily improv ing and have every confidence that they will be able to run an appreciable Bcore on the academics. The high school men, on the con trary, are anxious to have another try at Merrill's men and the tussle should result in a pretty struggle.

The largest mass of pure rock salt in the world lies under the province of Galicla, Hungary. It is known to be 500 miles long, twenty miles broad and twenty feet In thickness. , SPORTING GOSSIP AND COMMENT Hard Luck at Columbia Hard luck stories pile up at Colum bia and predominate In reports of the progress mode by the football eleven. The team is sadly crippled by the loss of four of its strongest players and the coaches are bewailing the fates which seem Inevitable for the team this sea > son. Sysonby's Great Record Sysonby has made a record that la eclipsed by but one horse, Domino, and strange to relate, both belonged to James R. Keene. In two years Syson by has won $184,853 and before the sea son ends it is expected that the sum . total will overreach Domino's un touched record of $196,580. Sysonby ' leads all horses In winnings and per. , formances this year. He has run in . nine races, winning eight and securing a dead heat in the ninth. He has been ( defeated but once, In the futurity, . which, had he won, would have placed ■ him $30,000 beyond Domino's high water • mark. Domino's winnings required i three years. Corbett's Defeat Young Corbett surprised the sporting i "community" by losing to Young .Erne i Wednesday night at Philadelphia. Cor ; bett has been talking so much of galn ; ing his lost prestige by fighting his way back up the hill that It was taken ■ for granted that he would dispose of ! Young Erne. This defeat, on top of , McGovern's quick and definite triumph i over Murphy a few days back, seem to put Young Corbett out of the run ' nlng and booms Terry In a correspond 1 Ing degree. i Women Are Barred i "Women are barred from the cheer- Ing stands at the Yale-Harvard game ' this year. No explanation Is given of this unusual action, but It Is supposed 1 that the authorities have become able to determine the counterfeit of a shriek when emitted for a college yell and 1 have found It impossible to reconciler ' the two. The Lightweight Jawsmiths Fight fans were of the opinion that the mill between Britt and Nelson was to tie a prizefight, but recent develop ments encourage the belief that instead : It was an electric bout to charge the wind batteries of the two little fellows i and all their managers, brothers and other relatives and friends, not to men tion the press. From the alarming overflow of talk that has resulted since the fight and which has grown out of the fight, including the question of who had the best of the argument un til the knock out, the legislative scan dal and the Intense rate at which Bil ly Nolan and Willie Brltt's mouths have been running Is convincing argu ments to prove that the fight was mere ly an Incident of the day. The fight public is disgusted. What must be the effect upon the general public? O'Brien.Kauffman Tonight Tonight the agony will be over— the fight fan's agony— as Billy Delaney's kid wonder, Al Kauffman, meets Phil adelphia Jack O'Brien. Al is the choice in the betting and considerable money Is wagered on the result. O'Brien, ac credited with being one of the craftiest of match-makers as well as fighters, Is said to rely upon Al's lack of exper ience solely, but the general Impression Is that Al will overcome this before the battle is ended and will have the experience, the decision and the long end of the purse. The winner will probably be matched against Hart. Stanford's Coming The Stanford football eleven is ex pected on the Owl today and will line up against the Sherman braves at Fi esta park tomorrow. Thia game will be the second big event In Southern California football circles and the en thusiasts will have a final opportunity of getting a line on all the competitors for the championship. Stanford is coming not in the expectation of de feating the Indians by as big a score as did Berkeley and It is no foregone conclusion that Stanford will be able to win, but on "dope," It is figured that the Cardinals have an advantage and will be returned victorious In the contest. Baseball Attendance The almost unbroken winning streak of the Angels has awakened some of the dormant fans and the attendance Is increasing, but Manager Morley is not content yet. He believes that the clip at which his pets are traveling nnd the seeming certainty of winning the flag for Los Angeles entitles his aggregation to a more enthusiastic sup podt. He's right. Tomorrow's Big Games The principal gridiron events In the east for tomorrow are as follows: Mis souri vs, Tarklo, at Columbia; Mich igan vs. Drake, at Ann Arbor; Min nesota vs. Lawrence, at Minneapolis; Illinois vs. P. and S., at Champaign; Purdue vs. Indiana, at Indianapolis; lowa vs. State Normal, at lowa City; Nebraska vs. Crelghton, at Omaha; Chl rago vs. Northwestern, at Ravina park; Harvard vs. Brown, at Cambridge; Yale vs. West point, at West Point; Pennsylvania vs. Carlisle, at Philadel phia; Columbia vs. Princeton, at New York; Annapolis vs. Swarthmore, at Annapolis; University of Maine vs. New Hampshire state, at Orono, Me; Georgetown vs. Washington and Jeffer son, at Washington. Tennis Crack Coming Beals C. Wright, the Boston tennis crack and champion of America, is ex pected to visit Los Angeles early next month. Already several "affairs" of very entertaining nature, from pink teas to match games at the Pasadena courts, have been planned. A "mixed single" match between him and the wo man world's champion, Miss Sutton, would be an interesting match. Why not? '" , Rough on Sharkey An eaßtern sporting writer recently In discussing the probabilities of fight ers being as good after having been whipped by a superior scrapper, re ferred to Tom Sharkey as an Instance. He said that Sharkey never was the same man after Jeffries "scattered his Internal arrangement to the places where It ought not to be, Tom's ribs were cracked, hla heart was shoved up In his throat and his lungs were flattened." What else could be expect ed of poor old Tom after such rough house work as that. The wonder is that he didn't die of melancholia be fore his "internal arrangement" "was rearranged. Fight Returns The Caßlno theater management has arranged to secure bulletins of the O'Brien-Kauffman fight by rounds, and these will be read to the audience be tween the rounds shown of the Brltt- Nelson fight pictures at the theater tonight. . , An Englishman traveling In Russia was depressed on scanning a mil; ol shops In St. , Petersburg, and finding only one which displayed an article of British make. MAY ELIMINATE FOOTBALL GAME HARVARD'S PRESIDENT ISSUES ULTIMATUM Brutality Must Cease or Gridiron Battles Will Be Prohibited on the Crimson Field in Future ./ By Associated Presa. CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Oct. 26.—Presi dent Eliot of Harvard has determine^ that brutality and unnecessary rough ness shall cease in football played by Harvard teams or that football Itself shall be eliminated from the athletic curriculum of the university. At the Yale-Harvard game In tho stadium next month President Eliot will sit near the side, line aB a critlo of the play. If there is any slugging, he will recommend to the corporation thnt Harvard cease playing intercollegiate football. The corporation could undoubtedly so vote and football, with Harvard left cut, would receive a stunning, if not a knockout, blow. President Eliot is no warm friend of football as played today. His reports have frequently been hostile, but he hah yielded to public opinion. In his re cent resolve he was backed up by Presl-' dent Roosevelt and influential mem ters of the faculty and corporation. ■ BASKETBALL AND TENNIS ; TEAMS ARE PRACTICING LIVELY SCENES WITNESSED ON COURTS DAILY University of Southern California Teams Are Getting Into Condition for Approaching Season — Young Women Hopeful ' Football is not ihc only sport that has gained a hold upon the student body of the University of Southern Califor nia, and every evening whll« the huskies are divine* at tackling ma chines and running in punts, the ten nis and basketball courts are animated with any number of young men and women, preparing for the racquet and basketball season which succ-eeds the gridiron.
