At its conclusion, he said: “I was very much pleased with the result of the game. It was a good, gentlemanly contest and, in my opinion, the playing fairly corre- sponded with the best Eastern football. California showed excellent organization in the line and behind it and thg mechanical precision with which the team worked aroused my highest admiration. I was also much pleased with Stanford's revival in the second half. The capdinals im- proved in their punting in the latter part of the game and gave the spectators a very pretty display. It was a thoroughly good contest and everything con- nected with it was worthy of the two universities.” ley's backs carried the pigskin over Stanford's goal Mne In the first half despite the most desperate defe e ef. longed the honor of the last touchdown. | forts of the well-conditior cardinal Through a gap in the center he squirmed | men.
