16 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1897. STANFORD ARSITY DEFEATED Remarkable Reliance Team and a Furious, Smash- ing Contest. GIANT AGGREGATION SCORES 1EN 10 NOTHING, Twice Murphy Tried to Kick a Goal From the Field---Collegians Overmatched by Fast and Heavy Revolving Forma- tions and Lacked Quick, Adhe- sive Interference. The Reliance Club football team, com- | posed for the particular occasion of the most formidable and the heaviest acgre- gation of veteran gridiron talent ever a: sembled in one line-up on the P Coast, defeated the previously unbeate Stanford Varsity eleven yesterday after- noon at Recreation Park by a score of 10 to 0. Following was the line-up with the stripped weight of the men as they op- posed each other: Rellance. Stanford Lanyon, 138..

The close, heavy, revolving forma- ons that Reliance sent with a quickness d a fury into the Stanford line, thougn often opportunelv broken up, were in the n good for a gain, despite the equal y with which the lighter college men threw themselves desperately under them. Reliance scored a touchdown and a goal about the middle of the first half, afier tremendous exertion, that promised ex- haustion of some of its players late in tbe game when it was expected the supposed superior training of the Varsity men would tell tothe advantage of Stanferd. The half ended without either goal bring Tcam approached nearer than the 20-yard ine. In the second balf Murphy, the regular quarter and expert kicker, who was not in he game until late in the first haif, tried twice for a fieid goal for Stanford and missed both only by a few feet.

His hold slipped to a grip on the fag end of Seawright's jersey, and the impetus of botn men was such that tackler and run- ner slid on npearly thirty feet before they stopped. And that was not the only valuable as- sistance tne former Stanford player gave to the team he affiliated with only re- cently, when it began strengthening itseif for the final struggle of its s ason. Sea- wright was intrusted with much of the lunging line-bucking that Reliance used so effec Iv. The personnel of the Reliance team and | the distribution of the players were such | that a comparison with showings made in the other games of the season against Stantord and California would mean little, for Reliance never before had so powerful an eleven. The season’s games in their order stand : Reliance 10, California 0; Reliance 4. Stanford 6; Reliance 4, California 4; Re- hance 6, Stanfora 8; Reliance 6, Stanford 12; Reliance 4, California 4; Reliance 10, Stanford 0. | It was a supreme effort with Reliance— a determination to gather together the cream of svailable veterans to make a successful ending of a season that had promised much for Reliance and had not in a conspicuous three big teams of the coast. coast.

For Stanford it did not mean so much. With the coast championship already se- cured in the present series present viciory was not so important as the preservation of players and the determination of the value of certain plays planned for Thanks- giving. The Stanford team did not show indi- vidual weukness in defense. It went up against a heavy line with quick-starting backs, that clung into close interference that was difficuit to break up and always came quick.y. Btanford’s interference was inferior. In the first half, with Erb’s slow and mediocre passing, the slower Stanford backs were not effective. Cotton’s bucking, in the second half, was reliable and R-liance failed to stop him. It was the best seen in the game. Murphy outpunted his opponent, but his recent lay-off told in his handling of kicks. Although he missed some tackles, his tackling showed improvement. His passing was qu ck and accurate, and his | thorough knowledge of the plays put con- fidence into the team where Erb’s com- parative unfamiliarity could not. The tackes, always the most frequently atiacked positions in a line, played hard. Rice particularly got under the forma- tions persistently and fizured in many tackles up the field. Thomas was respon- sible for several of the men siipping un- guarded by his position. Neither, how- e ver, got mild interf rence as they should have and both were boxed by their heavy opponents. The guards’ back play so effectively used last season by Pennsylvania was repeat- edly tried by Stanford, but it was not a success, at least azainst Reliance. When distance would just be gained the man with the ball was frequently forced back for no gain or a loss. As a whole the Stanford team showed no alarming weakness that would make its partisans apprehensive for the Thanks- giving game. For so far the team has not got into the speedy style of play that charzcterizes the practice of the very end of the season. Coach Brooke seemed not at all dis- concerted at the result of the contest. Notwithstanding the appearance of the score, it was remarked by Stanford men that on Thanksciving aay their same team with the advantage of finishing vrac- tice could defeat the Reliance team of yesterday. 1 During the game Erb of Stanford and Py We fill and extract teeth with- out pain and at prices less than one-half those charged by other firat-class dentists. $500 If we cannot perform any ordinary extraction without pain.
