6 ALL LATEST NEWS OF THE SPORTING WORLD TO PLAY GAME ON U.S.C. FIELD FOOTBALL MANAGERS AGREE TO CHANGE GIVES OCCIDENTAL CHANCE FOR 1909 HOME EVENTS Contest Expected to Develop Into One of the Hardest Fought In South. em California League This Year The game ' ween U. S. C. and Oc cidental, which was scheduled for the Occidental gridiron next Saturday, has been changed to the U. S. C. field in stead. This was agreed to by Man agers Clay and Goodell, for the reason that Occidental has all her games on the home field, according to schedule, this year, and this would give the Presbyterians no games on their field at all next year. This will make the third year that U. B. C. has missed playing on the Occidental field, the last time the Methodists met Occidental at home being in 1906. _■ '■'* ; Tho contest probably "ill be the hardest fought so far in Southern Cali fornia this year, for both schools have been figuring on capturing it. Al though the Presbyterians beat the Quakers more decisively than did the Methodists, that will have little bear ing on the probable result of the game Saturday, for neither team was worked up to the heat of battle that will pre dominate In next Saturday's game. Much Rivalry Exists The game will be the biggest con ference game thus far this season, for although Whlttler has met Pomona, l*. S. C. and Occidental, there is not such a spirit of rivalry existing between the Quakers and the other schools as there is between the remainder of the con ference colleges. Pomona and Occidental have always "counted more on their game than any other game of the year, while L". S. C, within the last few years, has banked on the Occidental game more than any other. Whlttier being pi new member of the conference has not as yet found any one particular college which It can call its greatest rival, but judging from the scores of the last two years, when Occidental only was able to beat them by ten points in football, Whittier seems to have taken a particular liking to walloping the Presbyterians. No definite arrangements have yet been made for the referee and umpire. CLASSY, CAR IS THE NEW KISSEL SIX Owner Drives New Roadster to His Home in Santa Maria—Car Shows Speed of Sixty.five Miles Per Hour ' This morning at daylight Dean Mc- Laughlin left for Santa Maria in the first six-cylinder Kissel Kar that came to the coast. , The car is a very classy roadster type, done In gray with black fenders and a huge copper gasoline tank be hind the seats. The body design was made according to orders from Mr. McLaughlin and reflects credit both on the designer and the factory where the ideas were carried out. While In town the owner of the "six" placed an order for a four-cylinder Kis sel forty in the touring type, which will be shipped soon from the fac tory. Mr. McLaughlin expects to arrive in Santa Maria tonight by taking it easy. The car will do 65 miles an hour easily where the roads permit, but it will be impossible to begin to use the speed on account of the large per centage of miserable roads between Los Angeles and Santa Maria, y * ■ » WINNER OF DAY AND NIGHT RACE RETURNS TO FRISCO Murray Paige, Who Drove the Loco mobile to Victory, Stayed at Wheel of Car Twenty.one Out of the Twenty.four Hours Murray Paige, who drove such a fine race with the Locomobile at Ascot park a few days ago, left for Spin Francisco last evening on the Owl. He came down especially to drive for Mr. Leavltt and the tatter's choice was proved good by the winning of the $1000 diamond trophy. The car was not let out to its great est speed at any time, and as Paige was at the wheel for twenty-one out of the twenty-four hours the credit of the victory should be given him. He always regained whatever lead the other cars obtained while the Lo comobile was taking on oil and fuel and then held it with just a safe margin. By driving so consistently he always had his car in the prime of condition, and when the finishing time came the big roadster was running as nicely as when it went on the track. The only stops that were made by Paige were for fuel, oil or change of tires. REBULTS AT JAMAICA JAMAICA, N. V., Nov. 4.—Results: Fourth race, six furlongs—Black Mary won.

GOSSIP More than 200 members of the Los Angeles Athletic club enjoyed an elab orate moving picture show Tuesday night, the picture being thrown upon a screen which had been placed upon the building opposite the club on Spring street. The spacious parlors of the Athletic club were packed to the doors with members and the lights were turned out so that the boys could en- Joy the pictures. In addition to the lat est returns of the election which were given the club from a private telegraph wire which had been put in, many pic tures of the best handball players of the club were shown, among them be ing W. P. Henderson, John Nest, M. A. Copps, Pete Horsch and F. J. Witt. Spring street in front of the club was packed with thousands of people, who proved with occasional cheers and handclapplngs that they thoroughly en joyed the club's entertainment. One picture particularly that was thrown upon the screen caused the members to cheer vociferously. It showed Hender son and Nest, two popular men of the club, stripped tor action. An introduc tory line which was shown with the picture Informed the crowd that the boys were "Bryan and Taft when they were young." The dubs' handball tournament la still unfinished, and the chances are that it will not be completed until sometime around Thanksgiving, as Jack Bradner yesterday left for San Francisco, where he will remain for tit least ten days. Witt had the tourna ment all but won until Bradner tied him for first place, when he defeated Witt by the score of 21 to 4. The stand ing of the players is as follows: Dubs— Points read. Won Lost.

Although the tournament was supposed to have been completed Saturday night, many of the members who are entered in the tournament asserted that they would be unable to play any games un til a later date. * The members of the Marathon asso ciation of the club are getting up a circular letter which will be sent broadcast throughout the state to all athletes who are likely to participate in the next Marathon race, which will be held during the forenoon of New Year's day. GOSSIP OF THE DIAMOND THE seemingly invincible colored Giants will play the San Bernar dino ball team n_?xt Sunday after noon at 2:30 o'clock on the Joy park diamond.

The Majestic and the Cubs played out their third series on the Praeger tract yesterday, the Majesties winning by the score of 5 to 2. Two of the best twlrlers that Coach Brewer has on his staff opposed each other are George Carlisle and Brooks Tompkins and al though Tompkins lost the game and at the same time fell down a notch in the percentage column, from a perfect per centage, his club still Is tied with the Majestic aggregation for first position with a per cent of .677. Tompkins was pip, best pitcher of the two and struck out sixteen men, while Carlisle fanned seven. The Cubs played a poor game and many errors were chalked up to them. The feature of the game was the playing of Shortstop Terry, who played in big league form, getting seventeen chances and accepting all. Plant, third baseman for the Majesties, made a fine running catch behind third base, run over several "chicks" that were scratching near where he caught the ball. Harlowe, who played short lor the winners, got a two-base hit and a three-bagger out of four times at bat. Coach Brewer, who umpired the game, gave his decisions fairly and not one kick was registered throughout the entire game. In the pitching depart ment, counting the three games played, Ferry leads with thirty-seven strike outs. Tompkins is second on the list with thirty-three strikeouts to his credit, while Shauber has one more to his credit, and Carlisle is next with seventeen and Sebastian Is low man with eleven. _,■•__.«.

The directors of the Suburban league held an interesting session in the Curry, bpildlng last night, at which several matters of of Importance were dis cussed. The first matter to come be fore the league was the protest be tween Rendondo and San Gabriel . made on the. grounds that San Ga briel played J. Dear and his brother, Parker, on his lineup, which was con trary to the rules of the league. After ' several minutes of discussion, Manager Roach of the Huntington Park club made a motion, which was carried, to allow Verdugo to revise his list. He so arranged his players' list that, with the permission of the board, he will be 1 allowed to carry fourteen players. Huntington Park and Redondo will play off a postponed game at the end ' of the series, while San Gabriel and I Redondo also will play off a postponed game, which will make fourteen weeks of play Instead of twelve weeks, which p originally was scheduled. The umpire question, which has been hanging fire for some time, for the third time was laid upon the table for further action. ..

It means that rac ing on the metropolitan circuit is doomed as long as Hughes Is in the executive chair ln New York, and that despite the game intentions of Phil Dwyer and others connected with the sport of kings in the east Hughes will be the boss, and that racing cannot lie conducted in the Empire State with the privileges that usually attach to the sport and which make racing a sport that attracts crowds by the thou sands. With tho sport reduced to that plane upon which all races must he run for the s.ike of the sport, the gen eral public will stay away. Men who have been paying $10,000 and up to $50,000 for horses like DeMund, Horace E., Montgomery, Uncle, Colin, Rose ben and others, will cut out such In vestments and seek other sources of revenue. 'Yet, with the situation in New York as critical as the. election returns indicate, horsemen will con tinue to hope and will keep on buying racers at fancy prices because Califor nia is still on the map. This means only one thing— California this minute is the only place In the world were thoroughbreds are at par value. All the good horses that now are in traininp will be shipped to the coast for the winter campaign, and none will be reserved for the spring and summer metropolitan campaign in New York— as formerly. The result of the election will mean that racing on the coast next winter will be of a higher class than ever before, and that horses will be seen in action here during the winter that never would have left winter quarters had the result of the election been different. Horses that a year ago were worth $50,000, today are worth about $10,000. and this value Is based upon the probabilities of the horse win ning one or more stakes on the coast. In former days the value of a horse was reckoned upon the probabilities of his winning* stakes down east. If he was well ncJminated he would bring a decent price—a nearly unheard of price. Now he Is worth what he will be valued as a buggy horse, plus what he can win on the coast In stakes dining the winter season. Horses like DeMund, that cost $45,000, and Horace E., that cost $30,000, would bring less than 60 per cent of that amount today, because their sphere of usefulness Is limited to the coast. This means that California is the only place In the world today where thoroughbreds can he raced at their par value, because only In i ill fornia are stakes offered of sufficient value to make it worth while to race valuable horses. For this reason the best class of racers will be seen on the coast during the winter. Their value is reckoned on their earning abilities, and in figuring this value the owner must think only of California—not of New- York. California succeeds to the at- PREPARATIONS MADE FOR PHOENIX RACE WHITE STEAMER TO HAVE TWO CREWS • Latham, Hanshue and Bigelow Will Send Tobasco 1 Through, While • Elmore Will Be Handled by Smith, Rose and Dake Cars and crews are in trim for the . long road automobile race that will start for Phoenix Saturday at mid- ! night, and each team that will com pete is confident that victory will be theirs. ' Neither the Locomobile nor Franklin would enter, as the twenty-four-hour race consumed so much time that it was thought Inadvisable at both agen cies to make the Phoenix run. The Kissel Kar, the White and the , Elmore will leave -morning at intervals of one hour. The lint car will leave the Hollenbeck at midnight, and the others in turn as will be de termined later. This morning at 9 o'clock the three men who have entered cars, Leon I. Shettler, F. C. Fennel' and A. J. Smith, will meet with Jonathan C. Mitchell at the hitter's hotel and arrange the details of the start. Another cup has been offered and will go to the car arriving in Phoenix sec ond. It has been given by the Fire- i man's Fund Insurance company. None of the drivers will attempt to stay at the wheel all of the distance, and in the case of the White Steamer there will be two crews. Captain H. D Ryus and A. Forbes, who drove a winning race to North Baldy, will drive the car to Mecca, where they 1 will turn it over to F. C. Fenner and George Adair. On the second team Will fall the strenuous work, as they will have the desert work to do, and I the long, dreary stretch between Mecca and F.hrenberg is where the j I mettle of tho men and the cars will be trie,! to the utmost, In one place on the road is a sandy hill where cars frequently have to be pulled down I grade by a team. Across th,- desert there are many sandy washes that the cars will have to plunge Into on one side and labor iously climb out on the other, doing all of the work in the low gear. One hundred miles of the road is over a territory where there is not a human habitation a_*3 no excuse for one." Only two places in that distance have any water supply, and all that the ears and men use between the two placea will have to be carried by them. A. J. Smith has selected George Dake to assist him from Mecca to Phoenix, while from Los Angeles to Mecca, D. B. Rose will be at the 1 wheel for a part of the time, at least, 1 Shettler's crew will be Bert Latham I and Roy Hanshue to Mecca, where they will be joined by C. H. Bigelow, who will be pilot and general manager un i til the river Is reached at, Ehrenberg. ' Bigelow has had a great deal of dcs ; crt experience with a motor car and Is ! counted on to cover many of the dlf ! Acuities that usually are' found Insur mountable by the novice in that class of work.

JAY DAVIDSON tractiveness that the metropolitan tracks formerly held for horsemen, and the value of horseflesh has depreciated accordingly. Stakes that in the east were worth $15,000 and $20,800 to the winner now are worth $11000 to $5000, and the depreciation in value of horses has scaled accordingly. Colin Is -..orth $50,000 at least less than when the Hart-Agnew bill was passed. Horses that were wintered In luxury a year ago must get out and earn their oats, They cannot earn any $100,000 oats on the coast. Hence the depreciation in value. It is pi common sense calcula tion. Yet the $50,000 horse of yesterday will race next winter at Santa Anita In the cheap stakes that today are the high value affairs. Dave Lewis Is a game sport and a good loser. Being one of the boys, he always is willing to take a chance, and he took one and lost. Yet Dave did not cry. He was as happy last night as any of them, and he did not bet on a horse race, either. He lost his money and stood the financial test just like any other good sport. Roy Offutt and Early Wright, who make up the totals of the firm of Wright & Offut, have some tolerably good Ideas regarding the results of stake races during the winter at Santa Anita. They are among the most lib eral nominators for the coining meet ing. and if Roy does not get back some of that $50,000 that he dropped at Seat tle it will be funny indeed. The bunch will string with Roy If they can figure, him before the race is run. Jockey Kent is galloping horses at Santa Anita every morning— for whom It does not matter. Kent is one of the good boys who will be seen in the sad dle during the winter meeting, and he will ride free lance, so the judges will have plenty of opportunity to look over his performances. By the way, with the sport In such fearful condition as it is now, the Judges will not be the whole show in the future. There are others. Any white man has a square I deal coming to him now on tho race track, and the fear of the judges will not be as great as It once was. The judges must be as decent and square as the Jockeys and owners.' It will he no one-sided matter from now on thank goodness. Jockeys and horsemen have been ruled off and penalized pit local race meetings like they were m bunch of white slaves, In the past. The judges have done about as they pleased. But with a non-partisan press and a most Indifferent public, the judges will rank no higher In future than any other white man. It is a notorious fact that jockeys, owners and trainers have been subjected to indignities and penalties on the turf in the past that the sub jects of Czar Nick would not stand for.

The changed conditions brought about by the elec tion In New York are apt to mako some folks foolish, but the best thing they can do is to ait still and listen to the rumble. Will Mehaffey, a young business man of promise and a highly respected citi zen of Los Angeles, especially In the circles where he moved, died Monday of that dread disease, the white plague, and was burled ,yesterday. Mehaffey was a native of Missouri and pi capable young business man who,had the entire confidence of those with whom he asso ciated, He retired to Long Beach pi jew months pig" and later went to Si erra Madre, but no relief was apparent In these changes,*and he slowly wasted away. It was my pleasure to know him in early boyhood, and since, and any tribute that might bo paid him would be wholly deserved. A widow and pi son survive him, and the funeral was conducted from the residence of his parents on East Twenty-fourth street yesterday afternoon. Advices from New York are that Jack Bennett and wife, Jimmy Mc- Laughlin, James Villepigue and wife, Charlie Smith,' Ed Cole and wife and several others who will make up a praty of New York tourists, mostly identified with the racing game, will leave the metropolis for Los Angeles the night of November 10. Jimmy Rowe, 'who trains for the James R. Keene stable, probably will accompany them, although he has not definitely decided whether he.will winter on the coast. Meantime many other New York horsemen will head for the coast within the next fortnight. R. L. Madison, the littlest little fel low in town, proudly answers to the call of "pap" . nowadays. The little fellow seems fully capable of bearing up under the burden, and probably will not experience any difficulty when ho appears tit the pay window of a local afternoon sheet for his weekly salary. lie cannot understand why he does not get .i raise, but he may get over it in lime. Congratulations are in order, and he has all the best wishes that can be conjured for him from this source. BATTLER HANDS PACKEY A ROAST SAYS M'FARLAND WANTS TO FIGHT HIM i Encounter Takes Place in Office of J New York Paper and Nelson Gives Would.Be Oppo nent His Views NEW YORK, Nov. 4.—Battling Nel son tonight, in an Interview for Los Angeles Herald, said: "This evening while at the Journal office being Interviewed by Tad, Packey McFarland happened in and made th, big noise about willing to fight me, of fering to do this, that, etc. "I told him he was just looking for free advertising, and, anyway, I was too busy to talk fight, and that I was paying Willis Britt to look after my fighting business and to talk to him, but for him to go and lick some one first, for instance, Joe Gans, or Cyclone Thompson, and show where he was qualified to meet me as he hasn't got a live one in his entire record. "He then started to compare Galli gan, Kid Goodman, Maurice Bayers and Charlie Neary, and every nip, wetn the limit. "The only men he knocked out are Benny Yanger, and Jimmy Britt, In anger, was buried for about three years, pugilistieally speaking, and poor Jimmy never did anything after the battings i gave him. "Kid Herman he fought flteen rounds to a no-declslon contest. "Then he started to go over my rec ord and find some dead ones, but only a glance was necessary, us ajl my vic tims were rather live.ones pit the time I beat them, but failed to do any good after. "I will just mention a few of the men I beat, and I didn't win decisions by going the limit, but knocked them out like pi real champion should. "Here are a few of my knockout vic tories: Art Simms, three rounds; Spi der Welsh, sixteen rounds; Martin , Canon, eighteen rounds; Eddie Han lon, nineteen; Young Corbett, twice, ten | and nine rounds, respectively; Jimmy Britt, eighteen; Jack Clifford, five, and j Joe thins twice, seventeen and twenty one rounds, respectively, winning the I championship. "Show me one single fighter In the lot I had to go to the cemetery and din ! up hi-fore beating, can you? No, nut yet, well, tire argument got rather heated, as l showed McFarland that when, he tried to compare records there was no comparison at all. "Pockey then offered to fight rue any time or place for $5000, winner take all, yes, and to go into a back room, or in the Journal office right In the building at once and I called his bluff, and-ho quit cold and refused to carry lt out pis I flashed my roll In under his nose. "Later we met at Bob Edgren's office at the Evening World and hadi tho same thing all over again. Finish, almost midnight, McFarland groggy sparring for wind—looking for a soft spot, somewhat sorry he met me."

BARRY'S FORM IS UNCERTAIN FANS DO NOT KNOW WHERE TO FIGURE HIM ji.',: s _ BETTING 13 SLIGHT AS RESULT OF THIS CONDITION Fireman Has Established Reputation for Gameness and for Putting Up Speedy Scrap, bo Wagering Is Slight Along Rialto There is little betting along the Rialto on the result of the ten-round scrap tomorrow night between the two Jims—Barry and Flynn. This Is not' because the funs do not regard the scrap pis one of Importance It Is be cause they cannot figure out which of ihe two big huskies has the better chance In this scrap. They fought a ten-round draw- In Colorado a few weeks ago and each Is authority for the statement that tin sheriff made it Impossible for them to arrive at a ,i, Unite conclusion, Flynn is more popular in Los Angeles than Barry, but the big eastern kiddo lias pi better reputation—despite that Sam Langford has put him down for the full count a collide of times. However, Langford Is apt to put any of them down any old time he hooks up with them, and a fighter gets no more discredit for losing to him , than a featheweight is. discredited for losing to Abe Attell. Langford Is some light er and he usually puts them all out. Bo his bout.i do mil count in form. Any fighter who can whip Sam is a wonder, but any fighter who cannot whip him has a most reasonable ex cuse. Nobody has been found yet who can turn the trick. Barry and Flynn are In prime condi tion and while Barry will have a big advantage In weight, he is accused of being a bit shy on courage and Flynn is long on this score. If there Is a yellow streak in Barry, his opponent will find it Friday night and Flynn. evidently believes there is something of the canary in the makeup of Barry, as In- Is talking most confidently of putting him away. There' is just one happy thought in connection with the match—it will bo pi fight. If Barry is as clever and pis speedy as he Is credited, he will whip Flynn decisively within the ten-round limit, as Flynn long since has ceased to be a serious contender for the heavy weight championship. But every fan knows that Flynn will fan into Barry like a setting hen and unless Barry has the necessary courage in- will be up against it good and strong. Several fellows have whipped Flynn recently, but in- is found fighting always to the last notch. There is olio certainty in figuring out this scrap. Flynn will light from tin- tap of the gong and Can take pun ishment and keep on coming after \ more until lie is put down and out. Barry never has been forced to show this courage here, but the fact that Langford has put tin- big boy flown for the count a couple of times and ill ragtime at that, makes the supporters of Flynn hope. Barry has pi . punch like Buttling Johnson and he is clever and speedier, so he should find a way to put over the wallop that will win .the coin—if In- has tip,- courage to stand up and lake a chance. It is because the fans are not sure regarding tlie courage of Barry that they are holding back their coin. If Barry was as green aS Flynn there would he nothing to It ami the fans would flock to his support so strongly thai betting would be out of the ques tion. Both boys are in fine condition ami they will fight. Flynn Is going to set the pace and leave little time for figuring just what he is going to do. +*+—: BASKETBALL BECOMES POPULAR IN SCHOOLS BOYS-OF HIGH HAVE ORGAN IZED TEAM • Girl Students Also Are Enthusiastic Over Sport and Will Place a Five to Secure Entry in Tournament Basketball among the high school students /is fast becoming a popular branch of athletics.
