Fora moment tbe ship seemed to hesitate, as t ough awaiting the champagne’ upon her iron prow.

FORTY-FIRST VICTORY. ew Olympic Lightweight Football Eleven, Formerly Y. M. C. A Defeat the Imperials. Yesterday forenoon at the California League grounds, corner of Sixteenth and Folsom streets, the new Olympic light- weight football team, formerly the Y. M. C. A. coast championship eleven, deieated the heavier Imperial team by a score of 19 to 0. Imperial went into the game on short notice to fiill a date made but abandoned by the Oakland High School team. The featnre of the game was a beautiful field goal kicked squarely between the ! posts from the 35-yard line by Evans, full- back for Oiymuic. He came within a faw inches of dupli- caung the performance a few minutes noue have ever oeen kicked by the uni- versities in their entire seven seasons ot playing. The running and tackling of ! Wilson and Hamilton of Olympic were alsc noticeably good. After the rirst kick-off bv the Impe- rial eleven Symmes of Olympic broke through their line, grabbed the ball on a fumbe and protected by Wilson and Hamiiton sped to the goal line and over it for tue first touchdown. The ball slipped and Symmes missed the yoal. ‘ihe second touchdown was made by Keiler on a long-end ru Agaln Symmes missed the goxl. Soon alter Evans made his successful drop kick frorm tue field aud the first halt eaded with 13 points for Olympic. Early in ihe second hali Hamilton, the balfback, skirted the Imperial and ran to a touchdown, from ne kicked a goai and made the score 19 10 0. Thus the game ended, and the little hzhtweight eleven had scored its foriy-first straight victory during its three years piaying as a team. D S.
