CELEBRATION
PARK WINSLOW
The blue and gold is waving trium
phantly over the cardinal to-day, for
Btarford went down to defeat In the great
football battle for the infant champion
ship. There has never been another
freshman game to compare with the con
tent held on the gridiron at Berkeley yes
terday. Xone could pick a winner up to
the last minute of play. Bui. when the
referee sounded his whistle to announce
the struggle had ended. California had
»• touchdown and a goal and the young
\u25a0ters from Palo Alto had no score.
Then the youths against whose backs
setting sun was shining, leaped over
guard rails In wild delight and car
ried on their shoulders the limp and
happy classmen whose brawn and brains
had gained the glorious victory. In
serpentine lines they marched amid deaf
ening cheers across the roughened check
erboard while the thousands in the grand
stands urged them on with voices grown
hoarse with shouting. On the : eastern
•side or the Held a little band of exhausted
boys with cardinal stockings watched
the gay scene dejectedly, while the friends
*ho had seen how well they fought tried
to remove a little of the bitterness of de
ft at.
MCUOWDS CO3IE EARLY.
Long before the appointed hour the
slope leading to the arena was gay with
color. E&ch irain sent forth its long
* tr ' a| n of humanity and from the high- <
waye ana 'tfte tjyTray£ the people of. Ber- '
ki ley augmented the torrent. On . the j
ww t *-t tide of the gridiron sat the Call- :
forma partisans. The bleachers opposite
were given over to those whose hopes
vcre centered in the prowess of Stan
ford. The wearers of the blue and gold
outnumbered the visiting rooters by more !
than two to one.
There could De no more enthusiasm at
the big varsity game. E\ery man in the
grandstand shouted himself into whisper- i
ing. Every lady waved something— ban- !
ricr, handkerchief or parasol— and jumped '
up and down in excitement. The weather j
vas ideal for sin-ctator, if a trifle warm |
for player. The bands played constantly j
when the cheering subsided. It was a
day of days and a game of games..
The best team won. There are- many
who will say otherwise. They will "say
that Stanford was the superior offensive
ly and the writer will agree with them. J
They will say that the cardinal excelled .
In punting a.nd again there will be no
dispute. They may claim that the boys
from down the bay shore were stronger
on the defense and there is where the
difference comes.
Taking line plays alone into considera
tion. Stanford had a belter defense than
California. Otherwise the visitors were
terribly inefficient. . Time and again
Stanford should have saved twenty yards
cr more when the home team ran in
punts. In this way the superiority of
the cardinal in kicking was nullified.
Offside playing detracts from the value
of any eleven. Stanford lost thirty yards
on penalizations. Careless handling of
the ball is a bad defect. Fumbles cost
the cardinal a possible chance to score
end dozens of yards on several occa
sions.
BKST TEAM WINS.
California had more speed and played
•with more spirit. With th<j ball only
a couple of feet from the goal line and j
c tie game. Stanford failed to send her '
men through for the score, but lost the '
ball. Layir.gr aside the questions of j
epeed, spirit, penalizations, fumbles and
the running in of punts, the cardinal
was superior. But these defect* made
the eleven from Palo Alto inferior as a
team.
X The ball was in Stanford's half of
the gridiron pretty much all of the
time. Occasionally the visitors would
show a burst of speed combined with
team work that made California look
like the proverbial SO cents, but the
fight was not continued. Some one
would funlble or go wrong on the sig
nals and the labor that had won an
advance over a dozen streaks of white
wash was lost. Both outfits were good
on team work. Both elevens were weak
offensively. Stanford held for downs
more frequently on line plays.
The cardinal had a kicker from Kick
ville. A punt of fifty yards was a cinch
for him at any time. All he needs is
a little practice to kick field goals from
the hundred-yard line or from back of
the fence. The backs In neither team
were strong in advancing: the ball. The
tackling- was high too frequently, to
be readily forgiven. Line plays proved
of little value to either team, except
when 'Stanford made an occasional
spurt. Attempts at end runs usually
resultfd in a loss for the side posses
sing the ball. The Interference on both
teams was really excellent and should
have brought better results.
California's quarter exercised better '
judgment than the man behind the
other center. '.There were no real fake '
plays. A nuarterback kick, however,
proved profitable to California in two
hard places and won the touchdown.
The condition of the men was about
on a rar. Grest credit is due both uni
versities that the play was absolutely
clean and manly. There were several '
delays exasperating 1 to the spectators
because of disputes and injuries... ;
* KXDS • ABB WEAK.
The ends on both teams were weak.
They did not remember whose place It
\u25a0uas to down with the punts. Stan
ford has .-t triile the best of the argu
ment on tack!* 1!*,1 !*, and California was
Buperior in guards. About the only
piece where the blue and gold seemed
The San Francisco Call.
CALIFORNIA FRESEMEXMAKLYG A PLUNGE THROUGH THE CENTER ON STANFORD'S SIDE OF-: FIELD}
FIRST HALF COMES
TO END SCORELESS
Home Eleven Makes Brilliant Dash
From Center of Field to Touchdown.
California won the toss and took the
| field while the expectant thousands drew
! a long breath and waited for the battle
!to open. Down toward the goal posts
sailed the ball and Stanton nabbed it on
the five-yard line. He came back ten
I yards before the visitors smothered him
;in a heap of brandishing limbs. Call-
\u25a0 fornia bombarded the opposing line three
j times for the distance and then lost the
i pigskin on a fumble. Jackson got the
{ ball on the Blue and Gold twenty-five
j yard- line and the eastern bleachers were
a frenzied mass of wildly \yavlng colors.
Three, tackle plays netted seven yards,
then California strengthened and got the
ball on downs. Stanford's line was im
j pregnable and after two scrimmages, a
kick was ordered. The ball went forty
yards dov.n the Held, where the Stanford
backs fumbled it. When the eighty-eight
limbs were untangled, the referee called
it California's ball. The signal was given
for a try at a field goal and the crowd i
laughed in derision as the pigskin was
fifty-two yards from the posts.
The quarter fumbled the pass, but Stan
ton grabbed the ball and skipped away for
thirty yards around Stanford's right end.
Now the west side bleachers were swell
ing tumultuously with life. A buck at
the opposing left tackle gave the Blue
and Gold another ten yards. It looked
like a touchdown, but Stanford held.
Stanton tried for a fltld goal, but the
kick was blocked. A Stanford man got
the pigskin behind the posts and tried to
run out with It andwas downed. \u25a0\u25a0 .
CALLS IT A TOUCHBACK.
The referee called it a touchback, al
though the rumor swept hrough the audi
ence that the play was a safety. Stan
j ford kicked ten yards past center and
California brought the ] ball back to the
visitors' fifty-yard .line. Two line plays
| proved fruitless and the ball was punted
to Stanford's -, fifteen-yard line. Torney
kicked back to. center. California's kicker
punted' back ten yards high and outside.
It was Stanford's ball on her own forty
yard line. Torney kicked sixty yards.
California tried two bucks at tackle and
Stanton then sent the ball back' to center.
HoUnan muffed the fly and a Blue and
Gold urchin assimilated the pigskin. Stan
ford held and California kicked. The
Cardinal not to be outdone in courtesy
kicked back to center. California punted
again and Stanford also punted. The
Blue and Gold was making rapid progrtss'
toward Its own goal posts on this Inter
change of kicks. The half ended 'with. the 1
ball in Stanford's possession of Cainor-'
nla's forty-nve-yard line.
After Ahe intermission, the teams
changed \sid(S and California kicked toj
the five-yard line. Stanford tried for a.
punt, but a bad pass spoiled the play.'
By rare good luck, a Cardinal man fell
on the ball and saved his outfit .from'
being placed in a. very perilous position/
Torney kicked high and short. California'
got the ball on the Stanford fifteen-yard
line. Stanford was penalized for offside'
play and it looked like a sure score. "Xow
they will make a touchdown, the rascals,'*:
shouttd a famous Eastern college football
captain of other days who was sitting at
the writer's side. But the signal was for!
a try at a field goal and it missed. Here I
was an opportunity for California to have
pushed through for a score. rl
BALL. TRAVELS BACK.
Stanford v.-as safe for the moment and
while the roiters drew sighs of relief
the ball was sent back by the air route,
to center. California found a weak place
able to gain on a line play was through'
Stanford's 'left guard. Both cen
ters ' proved themselves; worthy of
their respective teams by t stopping hard
bucks. ' California, had a. better, quar
terback. The other backs were about
equal except In 'punting/ Torney, kicks
better than any man on either varsity
if yesterday's work is any criterion/?-;';,'
The pam« n-as a big victory for
Coach Knlbbs. I>ist year Stanford had
j in Stanford's left side and made the dls
tance in two downs. Stanford was penal
ized for offside play and it was the Blue
and Gold on the Cardinal j thirty-yard
line. Bucking the middlemen netted fif
teen yards and. again a try was made at
| field goal. / .The same opportunity for
bucking the ball through for a touchdown
was presented, although two yards had
to be gained on "the -last down. The ball
j went wide as the spectators- had become
; accustomed to expect and Tormey lifted
j it back to the middle line.
j The visitors had repaired the holes in
I thtir armor and California was com
pelled to kick. The pigskin went low and
hard to the Cardinal ten-yard line. . Tor
ney booted the ball out of danger, but
Stanton captured it on the fiy. and made
a brilliant dash toward the Cardinal goal
for thirty long, glorious yards. Schaef
fer made a nifty little quarterback kick
unexpectedly. Holman touched, but
failed to grasp the ball. Stanton was
there, all hands, and drifted quietly be
hind the. goal posts where he dropped
with the ball clasped affectionately to his
heaving chest. It was California's touch
down. Cerf kicked the goal.
'CALIFORNIA EXULTS.
The great Blue and Gold monster on the
west side was rampant. The noise would
have drowned out the Ruef heelers at
the Republican ' convention In the Al- |
hambra. California was far in the lead. ;
There was just six minutes of play left.
Stanford kicked off and California kicked
back to center. Torney made ten yards
around his own right end. It took three
plays to-_ make the next five yards, then
Terril went around California's left end
for twenty yards. Here is where the
eastern bleachers began to see something
worth living for again.
Down the field slowly, but surely, went
the ball in Stanford's hands. Inexorably
the timekeepers tolled off the faithful sec
ands. I'Can they do it?" "Will they
have time?" was on every one's tongue.
"Don't let them do it, Freshmen,"
howled the west side..
"Get through there," "Give 'em the
ax,", yelled the east side. It was Stan
ford's, ball, three yards for the Blue and
Gold line.
"Call-for-r-rnia, Cali-for-r-rnia" shriek
ed' the dancing Berkeleyites.
"Eat 'em up," vociferated Stanford's
adherents.
"One— two— three— four— five— six," said
California.
The Cardinal freshmen gathered them
selves together for a rally, but like the
waves on the seal rocks they fell back.
One, twice and three times California's
sons held hard and stopped the furious
onslaught. Then it was all over. Cali
fornia took \ possession of the pigskin on
downs and kicked it far away out: into
the brown gridiron. The referee blew
his whistle after the first scrimmage,' and
It was California day. ,r, r

LOWELL PLAYS
LICK TEAM TO
A STANDSTILL
The football team from the" Lowell iliph
School yesterday proved L itself . worthy
opponents.; fo_r, the " sturdy, m.en wiio Vup
port the -colors' of the .California School
of Mechanical Arts. The garqe was one
of those 0-0 affairs, which so much pro
vokes an audience, ' and' us . far as play
was concerned neither team had the ad-
I vantage of .the other. • ;
\u25a0 Shortly after 10. o'clock Giberson of
i Lowell kicked off to Hall, who ran the
i ball in fifteen yards before downed. Ilen
j derson. Miller and Rogers were'piit lnt^
I play and gained a total of thirty yards.
\u25a0 Rogers then lost, two yards and Hall losi
I fifteen more on:- a quarter-back sneak,
i Main punted to Roncovleri.who only ran
the ball in "five yards. : ' \u0084\.
Toward the end of the half- Lick gained
the ball on downs and started bucking
down the ''field.'. Hotchkiss and Lodge
netted Hfteen. yards by a trick play and
.a delayed pass.- for : end around end.
After using Henderson and Hotchkiss
again. Main, was forced to kick, 'the half
ending shortly after with the ball In Low
ells' possession. v
In the second half Main kicked off to
Giberson. Lowell did not retain the ball
long, however, as . they were .forced, .to
I kick. Lick,' in its turn, kicked also, the
ball going out of bounds. At this stage
of the game Lowell seemed to take a
sudden brace- arid gained thirty-four
yards on -one -buck and trick- plays, the
ball being in a fine position for a field
goal. On the next play TLscornia fumbled
th» ball, which was "pinched" by Hen

the field fcightyvlye yards and' was only
downed fifteen yards from Lowell's goal

to begin their departure, and after a
time Lancia started his car again ami
the crowd fell ba-.-k as the pistol-like
reports of the exhaust cracked and thvi
side.s of the machine belched tiamt: an«r

report,^ an»l a call for physicians was
made: but Kcene Mmself telephoned*
to the. stand that he was uninjured, but
would be unable to continue.the riice. r
l 'Another minor accident that caused^
j some apprehension was the report of Lyt
, tie- losing his mechanic. Tattersall. out of.
i the car while passing through a piece
of woods on the back of the course. "VVV
K. Vanderbilt Jr. Jumped Into his racins
machine and sped back over the coarse
to pick up TattersalL It was found that
the latter had been fixing some of the"
car's * machinery and was leaning well
I forward *and at* a sharp turn -he was
hurled over and over out of. the car. He
was much scratched and bruised but no
bones were broken., - >
HEMERYCOMES TO THE FRONT. ;
These were the most serious of the day's;
accidents and gave the "crowds its thrills.;
Hemsry of the French team i. in tho
meantime had come well to' the front and?
from the seventh round o» to the end
there was a pretty race between him and
-Heath. Going through- the starting point
on the ninth round Hemery - led Heath
ty two seconds. As the, pair passed the
grand stand a mighty shout went up.
They went through Lakevlllo fighting"
for the lead. *The fact that Kemery start
ed three minutes later than Heath seemed
, at his point barring accidents to make
the race surely his. Hemery passed Hyde
Park ahead of Heath. Now every one
leaned over the stands and strained his
i eyts down the road for the first glimpse
; of the winner.
Hemery was first to cross the line. The
\u25a0 occupants of, the stands held their breath'
\u25a0until the cars flew through. Scarcely a
chesr sounded juntil they, were well down
; the road. "Then the spectators shouted
themselves hoarse. \u25a0»
Dingley went through on his fifth lap
and Warden on his eighth. The fight for
the third place was between Tracy of the"
' Americans and Lancia. Tracy got third \u25a0
place.
