Local High School Squad Too Heavy for Northern Players
L.A.H.S. IS STATE
RUGBY CHAMPION
Local School Proves Superiority
Over Northerners on
Bovard Field
The Los Angeles high school players
proved their right to the state Inter
scholastic rugby championship yester
day afternoon on Bovard field by de
feating the northern titleholders, Palo
Alto high school, in a fast game, by
a score of 10 to 0. In every point save
speed the local youngsters proved
themselves the better, and durinpr the
second half had an easy time of forcing
the ball through their opponents' de
fense.
It was not the rugby which Stanford
and Berkeley play, nor a very good
test of the English game. Fumbling
was frequent and ragged work on the
open Held gave the giune little of the
championship flavor -<vhich the follow
ers of the American game delight t.
see. Clark, McClure and Cass were the
local stars, while Hutchinson and B.
Relsling upheld the honors of the Palo
Alto school.
During the first half neither side
obtained much of an advantage, al
though the northerners succeeded in j
forcing the ball to the Blue and White <
one-yard line in the first few minutes
of play by a series of brilliant passing
rushes. >Davidson, wing forward of
Palo Alto, made a run of forty-five
yards, through a scattered field, saving
his team from a possible goal, as the
local squad had forced the ball on an
exchange of kicks and scrum work into
striking distance of the goal.
Both teams showed a decided ten
dency toward fumbling, Los Angeles
being the chief offender. Palo Alto's
much vaunted passing rushes were
much in evidence as was their speed
with the ball. The local fifteen used
their advantage In weight well and had
the best of the exchange of punts.
In the second half Relslinrr, the Palo
Alto captain, kicked off and the ball
cwung back to mldfield. Los Angeles
high forced the ball to their opponents'
goal line but the northerners recovered
and kicked back to eenterfield. L. A.
H. S. had all the better of the play
in the second half, the northerners
playing on the defensive.
Los Angeles again carried tho ball
down the field and after two unsuccess
ful attempts to send it over from
Bcrum, Captain Clark of the Blue and
White shovefl the ball over the line.
Score: L. A. H. S., 3; Palo Alto, 0.
Cass converted the try. Score: L. A.
H. S., 5: Palo Alto, 0.
Palo Alto kicked off to Lns Angeles,
who defended the east goal. The ball
see-sawed back and forth across the
center line until by a succession of
passes, aided by the fumbling of the
Palo Alto backs, the Blue and White
secured the ball for scrum on their
opponents' two-yard line. Here Cap
tain Clark Bgain made good with a try
and Cass converted. Score: L. A. H.
S.. 10; Palo- Alto, 0.
The bnl! was carried back and forth
across the ctnter line during the re
mainder of the time without score,
Captain Reisling making a run of
thirty-five yards. Time was called with
the ball in Los Angeles high's posses
sion on Palo Alto twenty-flve-yard line.

'PING' BODIES OF
MAJORS ARE BUSY
Trio of Home-Run Swatters Tied
for First Honors on the
1910 Roll
Had any enterprising automobile
manufacturer offered a touring car to
the player who led the big leagues this
year in home runs, three noble pas
timere—Frank Wildfire Schulte of the
Chicago Nationals, Fred T. Beck of the
Boston Nationals and Garland Jacob
Stahl of the Boston Americans —would
have qualified for the prise. Each of
these men poled ten four-furlong drives
in the campaign of 1910, the Cub clouter
being the lone member of the trio who
smote a brace of homers in the same
game. Not once, but twice, did the
uandsome young right Holder of the
Peerless Leader's combination make a
pair of four-baggers in the same con
troversy. Beck and Stahl, on the con
trary, got their noble wallops one per
frame.
The red-letter number of home runs
made in one .season by a bis leaguer,
from 1901 to 1910, inclusive, la sixteen,
Jordan, twice, and Sam Crawford,
when he was a member of the Cin
cinnati Keiln in 1901, and equaled by
Ralph Orlando (commonly called
"Socks") Seybold of the White Ele
phants the next season.
The National league leaders In home
runs in the last ten seasons were Tim
Jordan, twice ,and Sam Crawford,
Tommy Leach, Jamea Tllden Sheckard,
Harry Luniley, J. Bentley Seymour,
Davy Brain and Johnny Murray, each
■ nice, with this year's laurels claimed
jointly by Schulte and Beck.
In the American league in the fame
years the leaders were Harry Davis,
thrice, and Larry Lajole, "Socks" Sey
bold, "Bucky' 1 Freeman, Lave Cross,
Ham Crawford, Tyrus Cobb and Jake
Btahl, each once. The Quaker city
has had the leading homo-run smlter
on six of its teams. The leaders from
1901 to 1910, Inclusive, are named below:

Third Place
NEW YORK, Dec. 10.—Eddie Root of
the Koot-Moran team finished first to
night in the final mile dash that de
cided the six-day bicycle race at Madi
son Square garden. His time for the
mile was 3:56 1-5, and his distance for
the six days 2545 miles 3 laps.
Jnckie Clark of the Rutt-Ciark team
finished second by half a wheel; Joe
Fogler o the Fogler-Hill team third
and Patrick Hehir of the Goulet-Hehlr
team fourth.
By their victory Root and Moran di
vide $1600, the prize for the first place.
The record is 23T3 miles and one lap,
made by McFarland and Moran In 1908.
Slow as the race was this year shown
in the average and totals, it was
marked by bursts of furious sprinting.
In the early hours while the weaker
teams were being weeded out the
riders were far ahead of all previous
figures, but when the competition nar
rowed down to the real contenders
there was a blackening of interest
until penalties began to occur.
Two veteran teams —Clark and Mac-
Farland and Rutt and Stol —disbanded
Rutt-Clark, which accepted the penalty
of two laps always imposed upon new
partners. MacFarland became their
coaching leader, and the new alignment
provoked the bitterest Jealousy.
In tho decisive mile Root lead at a
slow pace in the first three laps, sttll
led at aa increased pace during the
next two laps and then went at racing
si 1 and beat Clark home by half
a wheel.
Notwithstanding there were so few
serious accidents there was much foul
riding, and the judges imposed many
penaltiea for unfair Jockeying, pocket
ins; and- Improper reliefs. Summaries:

A big: football carnival in which four
games are to be played has been sched
uled by Manager "Pat" Wiieelan for
Monday, the day after Christmas, at
Bovard field.
The way Wheelan has it lined up
the Sherman Indians and St. Vincent's
college are to play the game of ten
years ago, for the benefit of the col
lege and university alumni and to sho\v
what the old fellows claim to be the
superiority of the old-time game.
Then the U. S. C. varsity is to play
the U. S. C. preps in the revised Amer
ican game. Wheelan has secured the
consent of Principal Dunn and Super
intendent Francis to permit Polytech
nic high school to play Los Angeles
high school in a rugby game, but the
Hilltop boys, with the state champion
ship tucked in their belts, say they
would rather not continue their train
ing. Wheelan has hopes, though, of
securing them for a match game and
give them the opportunity to prove the
excellence of rugby.
The English .game, soccer, is to be
played by the Thistles and the Hang
ers. The Britishers are eager to show
off the real "football" and are confi
dent of winning the favor of the spec
tators.
Wheelan is planning to give a trophy
to the winning team which receives
the greatest applause and the biggest
number of votes in a coupon ticket
contest which is to be operated in con
nection with the admission tickets.
The persons to whom Wheelan has
broached the scheme agree with him
that it is a great idea and should draw
the banner crowd of the season. Never
in the history of sport has such a car
nival been held. There are instances
where rugby and the American game
have been pulled off on the same field,
but never has a community been able
to produce four kinds of football, each
of which has Its strong band of rooters.
St Vincent's, through former Coach
Walter Rheinschild, has agreed to put
a team In the Held and many of the
old-time stars, such as Grindle, Gait,
Neighbors, Crawford, Ciago and others.
Tommy Tbarrando expects to come
down from Santa Clara college to play
quarter. George Rlieinschild, brother
of the coach and formerly a Saint
player, also desire's to be in the lineup.
Los Angeles high, which W>n the
state championship yesterday.-fins l«»
selected by Wheelan because it is the
best team in the south and will be
able to show the way to play Rugby
up to date. The game the hill boys
put up yesterday was a revelation
even to old Rugby experts, and the
supporters of the English game want
to see them in action again Christmas
to win the honors of the day.
Polytechnic's team is eager to get
into the game, not so much from a
desire to play Los Angeles, but for the
moral effect the contest will have in
persuading the powers that be to per
mit the organization of a fifteen for
interscholastic games next year, me
students are jubilant at the idea that
they will be able to play through regu
lar permission.
Coach Bullock of the Indians has
gone to Salt Lake, and Wheelan will
have to look UP a coach for the Red
skins. He expects to visit Sherman
today and hustle things up. The In
dians have been willing to play, but at
first desired the New Year's date.
However, it is believed they will con
sent to the earlier date provided the
old game is played, as most of them
are veterans and will know how to
plunge through in the same old way.
Warren Bovard, manager of athletics
at U. S. C, said:
"The Los Angeles high players have
clearly proved themselves to be the
champions and most popular Rugby
players In the state, but they have yet
to defend Rugby against intercol
legiate football as the popular game
■\s they are the best exponents of
Rugby, and as U. S. C. is second to
none in playing intercollegiate, it will
be Interesting to see which same the.
public will choose as the best game
after seeing both teams play in the
football Christmas carnival."
Walter Rheinschild, former coach of
St. Vincent's said:
"There is no doubt that the new In
tercollegiate football is superior to the.
old in some ways, but I myself would
l-ather play the old. I believe that the
biggest objection to football under the
old rules was the number of Injuries
received by the players, and I will have
to admit that this objection seems to
have been overcome under the new
nil's.. But as to Rugby, why I can't
become enthused, or at least I haven't
been enthused over any game I have
si>, n yet. It seems to me to lack the
scii nco of the old gam'! and in fact
reminds me of a college rough house. I
think this plan of actually comparing
the ijames is an admirable one, and
I am sure the old game wilL win."
George Rheinschild says: V
"There is nothing- to it but the old
game for me. People can talk Rugby
and new stylo intercollegiate all they
want to, but for B good game, both
from the spectators' and players'
standpoint, give me the old intercol
legiate game as it was before they
poked in the new rules. We do not
eara BO much to beat the Sherman In
dians as we do to show the public that
the old style of play is the only thing."
LENNOX TO RE-ENTER U. S. C.
Howard Lennox, the former 11. S. C.
track captain, who was perhaps one
of the best sprinters and hurdlers of
the intercollegiate class in the south,
and who broke down after last year's
track season, has returned to his home
in Glendale after six months spent re
cuperattng on Mt. Washington. Len
nox is now in fine fettle and is consid
ering entering the university for th«
second semester, thus enhancing the
Methodists' chances In track a great
deal.

Weak Men-Free
Send Name and Addriss Today—
You Can Have It Free and Be
Strong and Vigorous
I have In my possession a prescription
for nervous debility, lack of vigor, weakened
manhood, falllnc memory and lame bacit,
brought on by excesses, unnatural drains, or
the follies of youth, that has cured so many
worn and nervous men right In their own
homes—without any additional help or inedi
cne i that I think every man who wishes to
regain his manly power and virility, quickly
and quietly, should have b copy. Ko I have
determined to send a copy of the prescrip
tion free of charge, In a plain, ordinary
sealed envelope to any man who will write
me £ur It.
This prescription comes from a physician
who has made a special study of men ana
I am convinced it Is the surest acting com
bination for the euro of deficient manhood
md vigor failure ever put together.
I think I owe It to my fellow men to send
them a copy In confidence so that any man
anywhere who Is weak and discouraged wltli
repeated failures may Btop drugging himself
with harmful patent medicines, secure what
I believe Is the quickest acting restorative,
upbuilding, SPOT TOUCHING remedy ever
devised, and so cure himself at home quietly
and quickly. Just drop me a line like this:
Dr. A. K. Robinson, 4086 Luck building, De
troit, Mich., and I will Bend you a copy of
this splendid recipe In a plain, ordinary en
velope free of charge. A great many doctors
would charge >3 to %:> for merely writing
out a proscription like this—but I sand It
entirely Ira*.
