FUMBLE COSTS
INDIANS GAME
FATAL MISPLAY ASSISTS IN
STANFORD SCORE
Braves Are Defeated by Cardinals, AI.
though Hempel's Squad Showed
Wonderful Improvement In
All.Around Playing
Played to a standstill in the most
brilliant football game ever witnessed
in Los Angeles. Stanford was victorious
over the Sherman Indians by a score
of 6 to 4 at Fiesta park yesterday after
noon.
Though beaten, the men from River
side played magnificent ball, and not
for an instant did they quaver before
the tandem formations of the north
erners.' Their grit was shown in
striking fashion after the fatal fumble
at the beginning of the second half,
which in the end cost them the game.
Crawford of Stanford sent the ball
whirling to Lugo and the half came
back full tilt for thirty yards, dodging
and using his arm In splendid style.
A final lunge to make a last yard as
he fell from the tackle and the ball
flew Into the air, and as It rolled along
the ground a Stanford man was on it.
The crowd, which had risen to Its
feet, divining the exciting run, groaned
as It witnessed the splendid effort re
sult In a Cardinal advantage. Slowly
but surely, using a tandem play that
gained their greatest distance through
out Ihe game, Stanford forced the bill
towards the Indian line, using every
ounce of strength to carry the ball thn
required distance.
In the shadow of their own goal
posts, on the one-yard line, the men
from Sherman braced themselves and
with a stonewall defense, held Stan
ford, and as the crowd realized that
the ball would go sailing away from
the danger line, It gave a wild dem
onstration that was not the customary
conduct of the Fiesta park grand
stands.
But they deserved it— those silent fel
lows from the Indian school— for a bet
ter defensive stand has not been seen
on a Southern California football
field.
But the fumble was yet to count,
and as Neaphus backed against the
wire fence at the end of the field, his
punt went but a distance of fifteen
yards near the right side of the
grounds.
Stanford Desperate
The Stanford men, rendered desperate
by the defense which was wearing
away their strength and foiling their
best efforts to place the ball within
striking distance of the line, began
forcing the ball toward the Indian goal
posts and finally, with the aid of a
five-yard penalty which the Indians
sustained for offside play, Thompson
went over for the only touchdown of
the day. Crawford kicked goal and
the score stood 6 to 0.
The story of the game is that of a
contest in which brilliant offensive
plays stood in relief against a defense
that seemed impregnable.
The backs played the game of the
day, for Stanford and time and again
they broke up the interference of the
Indians, stopping plays that would
have driven the Cardinals to certain
defeat were it not for the smashing
work of Chalmers, Stott, Vandervoort
and Crawford, who played with ths
dash and fearlessness for which they
have been noted on the northern grid
irons.
The Cardinal forwards were open
to attack from the Indian side of the
scrimmage line and much of the red
skin distance was gained through the
Stanford line. For the Indians, Lugo,
Tortes and Neaphus were the stars th:it
scintillated among a team in which
every man was in the game from the
call of time.
The most sensational play of the day
came off in the first half, when Lugo,
the big halfback of the Indians, found
his way between the right tackle and
end of the Stanford team and skirted
the left side of the field for thirty
yards. The stands went wild at the
gain and cheer after cheer was given
for the Indians.
A critical moment was in the last
half and an intense silence fell over
the field as Tortes, the little half, pre
pared to hurl four points into the camp
of the Cardinals. It was the third
down with the ball on the Stanford
fifteen-yard line. The red man had
fought hard, but there was only one
more down and four yards to go.
Tortes 1 Pretty Kick
NeaphUß said something to Tortes
and the little redskin walked back a
few yards and waited with folded arms.
Neaphus spread himself on the ground
and cleared a plare for the oval. The
Indian line set itself like a rock, tha
Stanford men fuming with impatience
for the play. Neaphus gave a glance
at the waiting halfback, snapped a
signal and for a brief second the ball
rested on the ground, only to meet the
driving toe of Tortes, and as the Cardi
nals struggled to break the play, which
meant a score against Stanford, the
leather went skimming between ihe
goal posts for as pretty a goal as could
be kicked
This was not the only play in which
Tortes came to the fore and a f»'\v
minutes later he wedged his way be
tween the Stanford defense aiul
blocked a place kick that the Cardinals
were attempting. In one instance he
hurled Stott back for a loss of fifteen
yards.
Chalmers and Stott of the university
team showed that they are every bit
the clever players for which the north
gives them credit. It was due to their
defensive work that the Indians did
rot wreak havoc with the Cardinal
pride and on the offensive they were
equally effective.
Thompson in the line was a tower of
strength and on the offense was used
with a regularity that would have worn
down a weaker man.
The ends were weak and although
many of the Indian plays ran between
tackle, the end • men found themselves
out of the defense.
On the defense, the Indians were
magnificent. The line held in better
style than In the game with Berkeley
and the back field of yesterday to a
man backed their forwards with a de
gree of success that made the Stan
ford men strive with their mightiest
efforts.
The men were not in action five min
utes before Stanford players were wear
ing an anxious expression and Chal
mers was walking among his linesman
and backs, urging them to a supremo
defense.
A continuaV tandem play was the all
present offense that Stanford hurled
at the Indian line and the way th'j
Indians fought back on the line, break
ing Bmashes showed wonderful im
provement over the game with Berk
eley.
Substitutes Unsatisfactory
Before the contest had ended, Stan
ford was forced to use four or five sub
stitutes and their condition seemed not
to be of I the best.
Chalmers, Crowe and Molfino were

was called and it was not from any
reason of security that the game was
safe, as the Indians were as fresh at
the end as when Referee Roesch blew
the whistle for the start.
Shoulder, captain of the Indians, was
the only redskin who was obliged to
leave the field, and as he demurred at
the order of Hempel, three husky subs
seized him and dragged him off with
out the ceremony that attends the exit
of a paleface captain.
Lyon of Stanford did not make a
hit with the crowd when he tripped
Tortes, who was in the act of tackling
Stott, and the penalty of five yards
meted to the Cardinals was hailed with
much satisfaction.
Several disputes arose during the
game, but the only one that threatened
to result seriously occurred near the
end of the contest, when Vandervoort
was called back from the Indian line,
which he had crossed after a thirty
yard run.
Haggerty had blown the whistle a
few seconds before the play started
to place an Indian on side. The Stan
ford men did not heed the whistle and
as the Indians relaxed, Vandervoort
took the ball and ran for what would
have been a touchdown had the play
counted.
The Stanford men claimed that they
had a right to take the touchdown and
let the Indian penalty go. As the
whistle had blown before the ball was
in play, the touchdown could not be
allowed.
It was necessary to refer to the rule
for the satisfaction of all concerned be
fore the game proceeded and what
threatened to result in a riot terminated
peacefully.
The game ended as Tortes brought
the ball to the center of the field after
a twenty-yard run.
The first half was nil in favor of the
Indians, with the ball in Stanford ter
ritory during the whole half. The
scoring of both sides occurred in tn<s
second half, which drifted partly into
a punting match between Neaphus and
MCrawford, with honors about even.
DETAILED PLAY OF FIRST HALF
Indians Kick Off and Stanford Starts
in Midfield
The Indians kicked off to Stanford,
little Tortes sending- the ball on a cross
kick to Horton on the forty-yard line.
Like a flash the Indian linemen had the
runner and the first play from Stanford
came from near the center of the field.
Then came Stanford's first try for the
Indian team. There was a pause as the
nervous little blonde quarterback
leaned toward the center. The heavy
Indian guards and tackles grinned at
him and he thought of the speedy back
field men behind him and sent the play
whirling In a long end buck toward the
Indians' right.
But he had made his mistake. For
years the Indians have had this style
of play drilled into them until the
breaking up of an end formation is sec
ond nature with them.
Before the Stanford backs were fairly
started, big Lubo and Shoulder of the
Indian eleven were through the line.
There came a crunch as the opposing
■warriors met and the play was stopped.
Again Stott thought his backfleld
speedy enough and the other end of the
Indian line was tried, but without a
gain, and Crow was sent back for a
punt and booted the ball to Lugo,
thirty-five yards away. The big Indian
was thrown In his tracks and on the
nsxt play he plowed through the line
for a five-yard gain.
Again Lugo was worked on a cross
buck through the opposing tackle for
three yards. Tortes was then ham
mered at the line for a straight buck
■with a gain of two yards, and on the
next play failed to gain in a try for
the Stanford end.
The tackle around tackle play failed
to net a gain, although Coleman was
crushed against the line with terrific
force.
Neaphus dropped back for a punt, send
ing the ball forty yards to Vander
voort, who returned It five yards be
fore being thrown. On the next play
the Indians were penalized five yards
for offside play.
Stanford then started Its straight
tandem buck play, which netted them
nearly all their gains during the game.
Chalmers went through left tackle for
three yards, and Chalmers, taking the
ball on a fake line buck, circled right
end for a gain of twenty yards.
Indians' Strong Line
Vandervoort hit through center for
five yards. Stanford then tried the
Indian line. For three downs the men
of the red and white were hurled
against that line of grinning bucks, but
It was of no avail. Hempel had solved
the question of his weak line, and the
eastern ■ method of double defense
proved too much for the western lads.
On every play, regardless of where the
line plunge . went, there was a man
under it and a biff halfback waiting to

put on the finishing touches. The ball
went to the Indians near the center of ■
the field on downs. i
Neaphus went back for a punt, but ■
tried to fake the play into an end run
and was thrown without a gain.
Neaphus punted the ball forty yards
on the next play and the catcher was
downed in his tracks. For two downs
the bucks' line held and Stanford was
able to make two yards only.
Chalmers was then sent over right
tackle in a pretty line hurdle for a four
yard gain. Again Chalmers was pushed
over Right Guard Blacktooth for four
yards. On the next play Stott circled
Shoulder for a twenty-yard gain and |
in an attempt at the other side of the
line was thrown for a loss.
Stanford's backs were then hurled
against the line for small but consis
tent gains, and Capt. Crowe in an at
tempt to hurdle the line was injured,
and Vogel was sent in to take his place
at fullback.
In an attempt to buck the ball around
Shoulder, Stanford lost the ball on a
fumble and the Indians came back with
a series of line bucks.
Lugo went through right tackle for a
two-yard gain and repeated the per
formance in a cross buck formation on
the next play.
The Indian Ilne-up closed for a
straight buck and instead Lugo was
sent wide round right end, and with
Shoulder Interfering went thiry-flve
yards before being thrown.
Henry Coleman was sent around
tackle for another gain of five yards.
The Indian rooters were cheering loudly
from the grandstand and calling for a
score when Gait, the lilg fullback, was
smashed through left guard for a small
gain. As he fell the ball was brushed
from his arm and Stott of Stanford fell
on it. >
Crawford for Stanford booted the oval
thirty-five yards to Neaphus, who was .
tackled without gain by Thompson, i
Neaphus dropped back as though to •
punt, but as the ball was sent to him ■
Tortes, the halfback, reached up from ;
his position in the backfleld and grab- ;
bing the ball attempted to circle left :
end. He gained three yards. j
Lugo hurdled right Uicklo for three
yards and Coleman was sent around i
right tackle for a gain of ten more. |
Neaphus booted the ball to the Stan- ]
ford fifteen-yard line, where Stott I
caught it and was thrown without a '
gain. J
Stott tried the Sherman's right end
for four yards on a q-jarterback run. '
The Stanford team was penalized five
yards for offside play and Crawford j
punted thirty-five yards, the ball going '
out of bounds. . I
Lugo hit left tackle for a two-yard
gain, but was injured and time was I
taken out. He went back to his (posi
tion after the two-minute rest. • •
Fox was sent in to take Malflno's
Crawford of Stanford Kicking Goal
position at center In the Stanford line.
Gait for the Indians hit the line in two
straight bucks for a gain of four yards,
and on the next three plays the Indians
were held for downs.
Crawford kicked to Neaphus, who re
turned the ball five yards before being
thrown. The first half ended with the
ball near the center of the field in the
possession of the Indians.
STORY OF THE SECOND HALF
Crawford kicked off for Stanford,
st-ndlng the ball to Lugo on the ten
yard line. The big halfback tucked
the oval neatly under one arm and
pranced through ten of the Stanford
team for a gain of thirty yards. He
was tackled by Horton and as he fell I
he dropped the ball and Stott, the
Stanford quarterback, fell on it. The
play lost the game for the Indians, as
it left Stanford in possession of the
ball on the Indians' forty-yard line at
the very firßt of the half.
Stanford tried a straight buck at
left tackle, Vandervoot advancing
two yards. Thompson was brought
back of the line and on the next play
went through center for three yards.
Stanford failed at a straight line buck
and Vandervoot, securing the ball on
the next play, went around right
tackle to the Indians' five-yard line.
The Indians fought desperately and
on the first down the ball was not ad
\anced an Inch. On the second down
Vandervoot plunged over tackle fnr a
four yard gain, carrying the ball to the
one-yard line. In the next play the
attack of the red men was so fierce
that the ball was fumbled by the
Stanford men and an Indian fell on It.
A discussion arose between the two
teams which lasted fifteen minutes
and the Indians then started the play
with a punt. The Stanford ends were
in on the kick before the ball had
hardly reached Neaphus and ho was
compelled to side punt sending the ball
across the field to the sixteen-yard
line.
The man was tackled in his tracks.
Vandervoot went through right tackle
for a two-yard gain. Stanford then
slammed her backs against the Indian
line for small grains, advancing the
ball to Sherman's five-yard line.
For the first down the Indians held
and then Vandervoot bucked through
right tackle and end for three yards,
carrying the ball. to the two-yard line,
where Thompson carried It over for
the only score made by Stanford
during the game. Crawford kicked an
easy goal. Score 6 to 0, favor of Stan
ford.
Stanford Fails to Gain
The Indians ■ took the' kick, Neaphua
sending the ball to Chalmers on the
ten-yard line. On two tries at the end,
Stanford failed to gain, on the second
attempt, Stott was tackled by Ken
nedy before he , had advanced , a foot
and the light quarterback was carried
tack for a loss of five yards. Craw
ford, for Stanford, punted the ball
forty-five yards to Neaphus who was
downed in his tracks.
Lugo hit through center for three
yards and Coleman failed at a try at
left end. Lamb was sent in by Stan
ford to take the place of Lyon at
right end.
Sholder was put out with a strained
tendon and Baldy was sent in to take
his place at right end. Neaphus punted
forty yards to Stott who failed to
gain. Stanford tried right and left
tackles on line plunges but failed to
gain, and Crawford was sent back for
a punt. The ball was snapped too low
but the plucky kicker held off the
charging braves with one hand while
with the other he picked up the ball
and booted it thirty-five yards out of
danger. *
Neaphus tried an end but failed, and
on the next play booted the ball thirty
five yards.
As Baldy went down the field in an
attempt to tackle the catcher, he was
blocked off by Stanford who tripped
him and held him. The Stanford
eleven was penalized for this play.
Stanford made one try at Baldy but
failed and Crawford booted thirty-five
yards to Tortes who returned It five
yards. Tortes hit the line for five
more.
On a tackle around tackle play, Lubo
went down the field for twenty-five
yards. Gait hit center for three yards
and Lugo wenS through for two more.
Coleman worked right end for four
yards and Lubo on another around
tackle play carried the ball fifteen
yards to the Stanford six-yard line.
Place Kick Nets Score
The Indians tried twice at the Stan
ford line but failed to gain a foot and
the ball was snapped back to Tortes
on the seventeen-yard line, who place
kicked It for the only score made by
the Indians. Score 6 to 4.
Pemberton was then sent In at Hor
ton's place at left tackle, and the bril
liant young substitute on the very
first play bucked through the Indians
right end and without interference
ploughed through the Sherman team
for a gain of ten yards before he was
tackled by Kennedy, who threw him
out of bounds.
On the next play Vandervoot circled
the end for forty yards and a touch
down, but the score was not allowed
as Stanford players were off-side nnd
after a long wrangle the ball was
brought back and put in play.
Chalmers went out and RooU went
in at half. Rook hit left end for two
small gains and the ball was worked
to the Indians' fifteen-yard line where
Crawford attempted a place kick. Tor
tes burst through the Stanford line
and blocked the kick.
On the next play Tortes snatched the
ball on a fake punt play and carried
it twenty yards to the center of the
f eld where he was downed. The game

test Today
Special to The Herald.
SANTA BARBARA, Oct. 28.— The
Hoegee Flags of Los Angeles, who are
to be the Channel City's opponents to
morrow, are old time rivals on the
diamond and considerable interest is
manifested In Sunday's game, as honors
are even between the two teams up to
date. Each team has won two games
during the last few months and the
ccomlng set-to will be in the nature of
a rubber.
On August 13 the locals came away
with the long end of a 3 to 1 score and
on September 2 repeated the victory
with 4 runs to the visitors' 1. On Sep
tember 3 and 4, however, the Hoegees
had ample revenge by winning two
straight games, 6 to 3 and 8 to 2. The
Hoegees have scored a total of 16 runs
to the Channel City 12. In these four
games the locals made twenty-two safe
hits to the Hoegees twenty-four.
Andrade, who will pitch against the
Hoegees this week, has the measure of
the opposing batsmen carefully taken,
having been In the box on both occa
sions when the locals carried off the
long end of the score. In the first game
played the Hoegees were only able to
get three hits off Andrade's delivery,
whiie Gamble was touched for six safe
ties.
In the second game played Andrade
held the Hoegees down to four hits,
while the locals gleaned seven from
Simons. Ford was on the hill for Santa
Barbara In the third game against the
Hoegees, allowing six hits to Harris'
four. In the last game Gamble did the
twirling for the Channel Cltys and was
clouted for nine safe ones, while
Whalen, the opposing boxman, allowed
seven hits.
PLANNING FOR TRACK MEET
Manager Barrett Proposss Revival of
Athletics Between North and
South Teams
A track meet between a picked team
from Southern California and the Stan
ford men may bring the north and
south together before another football
season rolls around.
Manager Barrett of the Stanford
team is desirous of meeting a team
from the south, and has had several
consultations with local men relative
to a meet in the spring.
Barrett nays that he would bring his
men south or have the southern men
come to Stanford. Percival Hager
man of Occidental is perhaps the most
interested of local men in the outcome
of the affair and presented the situa
tion to the Cardinal manager In a
very favorable light.
Hagerman, however, holds that
Stanford owes Occidental college a sep
arate meet because Occidental paid
the expenses of Stanford to the south
three years ago and there has been
no return since that time.
Barrett yesterday agreed to meet the
Occidental team on the Stanford cam
pus at some date between March 25 and
April 1.
The score of the meet when the Car
dinals came south in 1902 was 40 to 50
in Stanford's favor, the relay race not
being run.
A team worthy of either of the uni
versities could be chosen from the four
colleges of the south and the meet
would, no doubt, arouse great interest
throughout the state.
Hagerman of Occidental Is the ac
knowledged best broad jumper on the
coast, and Wilholt of ! St. Vincent's
should capture the pole vault with
Dole of Stanford out of the race. There
are other men who would Btand an
even chance against the best that the
north ,has produced, and a wealth of
material is awaiting the development
which the proposed meet would bring
about.
TRIMBLE WANTS TO FIGHT
Offers to Meet Any of the Coast Scrap'-
pers In Middleweight Division
and Bars None
Jimmy Trimble, the local middle
weight, is anxious for a fight and is not
particular who he fights, just so he gets
on with some one in his division.
Since his knockout by Dave Barry
at San Diego last month, In which
battle Barry had more than twenty
pounds advantage over Trimble, the
latter has been seeking a return engage
ment at more even weights. He has
also offered to take Barry on at catch
weights for ten rounds.
Trimble Is In good condition now and
would have but little difficulty in get
ting into trim for a gruelling fight at
or near the 158 mark. At this weight
Jimmy is willing to meet any of the
scrappers on the coast.
Dave Barry at catchweights for ten
rounds is his preference, but failure to
get this match he would meet Zubrick,
Frank Fields or Rube Jefferies.

FIGHT ADONIS IS
COMING TO TOWN
O'BRIEN AND HIS GLAD RAGS
DUE NEXT WEEK
Philadelphia Jack, Successor to Kid
McCoy as Handsome Man of
the Ring, Is to Fight
Jack Twin
Broadway swells must needs look to
their laurels for Jack O'Brien is
coming to town.
Jack has the reputation of carrying
ninety-two trunks of glad rags and
changes his raiment five times a day.
And he Is In the height of hli glory
when permitted to parade his noisy
chevolts before the admiring throngs
of a great city.
Manager Tom McCarey persuaded
Jack to come out of hibernation in the
frozen north and place himself und?r
the McCarey wing of protection and
direction during the sunny months of
the Southern California winter season,
which account? for the prospective
presence of the pugilistic Beau Brum
mel.
When McCarey became convinced
that Jack was about the best middle
weight and light heavywelgnt in the
business, he hastened to secure Jack's
signature to articles of agreement to
fight that other swell, Jack Twin Sul
livan, before the Pacific Athletic club
November 28.
Therefore, v.-ith the beginning' of the
final week In October, all the pugilistic
stars of the up-state section will turn
their faces to the south and the local
colony will be augmented by the pres
ence of O'Brien, Jack Twin, Spider
Kelly, AI Kaufman, Billy Delaney and
possibly Marvin Hart and Tommy
Ryan. All these celebrities will be at
the ringside when the gong taps for
the opening of hostilities November 28.
But O'Brien Is the dude of the bunch.
The pugilistic-lawyer is one of the
handsomest men in the business and
Is so pretty that Kid McCoy's heavenly
blue eyw and cute curls are given a
stern chase for beauty medals every
time these two fashion plates stroll In
to the same vicinity, and the artificial
frost which appears is inevitable.
McCarey's light card for November
is the best that has been offered on
the coast in years. Beginning early
in the month is the Hanlon-Herrera
fight, scheduled for the third day of
the month, and the O'Brien-Sullivan
mill Is docketed for two days before
Thanksgiving
Undoubtedly the O'Brien-Sullivan
battle will attract as much, if not
more, interest throughout the country
as did the O'Brien-Kaufman affair. In
this battle, the crafty Philadelphtan
will not be up against a green young
ster who is easily befuddeled by his
marvelous foot work and clever boxing,
but will face one of the best men at
the weight In the ring today.
Jack Twin is not a pretty boxer, but
like the bedbug he gets there just the
same and the soothing syrup at the
tips of his rijsrht and left jab sticks Is
notoriously favorable to a period of
inactivity unlets carefully avoided,
which is sometimes an impossibility.
Sullivan and O'Brien will enter the
ring fresh from the field of victory
and with honors even from their last
meeting. This will give them confi
dence and lend zest to the battle. As
past masters In the game the fight will
be an exhibition seldom seen by the
Southern California fan.
Jack Twin will probably train at the
pavilion as he did while prepplng for
the Burns scrap. O'Hrien will probably
open training quarters down at North
Beach and it is also probable that
Spider Kelly, who was in his corner
Friday night, will remain at the ocean
side to assist and direct training.
STANFORD STAR OUT OF GAME
Crowe, Cardinals' Fullback, Injured
and Will Not Be In Champion,
ship Struggle
The most serious Injury resulting
from yesterday's game between the
Indians and Stanford was sustained
by the Stanford team, and Crowe, their
star fullback, may not be able to play
against Berkeley November 11.
Crowe was forced to leave In the
second half and an examination made
by Dr. H. Gordon Bayless at the An
gelus hotel last night showed that
Crowe had torn loose the ligaments
of his right ankle and broken the end
of the ankle bone.
Dr. Bayless does not believe that
Crowe will be able to use his foot for
several weeks and as regards the
extent of the Injury, said: "The liga
ments of the foot are badly torn and
I do not see how the foot can be used
for any football work for many
weeks.'
The cardinal men will be severely
handicapped if Crowe does not onter
the Stanford-Berkeley game, and Palo
Alto's chances for a victory will be
lessened considerably. ■"."■■'
