Just about this time on the college campus, on the street corner, in club and office there are enthusiasts who are determining the result of the Thanksgiving game betwaen Stanford and California. Some reason on form, others on prejudice. The conclusion reached in all cases is about the same. The Stanford adherent will find after using his own form ‘“dope” that the cardinal must win. The California adherent discovers the same for California.

Twice in the history of the games of California and Stanford two teams were voted by those who possessed the very patsnt facts relative to elther team’s de- velopment to be in a much higher class than the rival eleven. They were the varsity of Stanford in 1867 and the varsity of | California in 1869; for while Stanf5rd’s team won by 20 to 0 in 1556 and California’s by 22 to 6 in 1868, the result was not as easy to prophesy as the scores indicate.

Stanford has more men who are clever in advancing the ball than California, even recognizing that California has three players in Smith, the pesr of halfbacks, and Gammon, hese recent play has been strong, and Pringle, in case his injured knee does not bother him. all of whom are hard to stop. In shert, Stanford up to date has demonstrated superior attacking force and superior team play on the offensive. The team of the cardinal has showed a tendeney to play an uneven game. California has men who are veteran win- ners, whose presence steadies the work of the eleven ard will aid in welding the entire aroup in the final week of training. California, barring Pringle. will trot o4t on the fleld in better physical condition than Stanford, for, contrary to late news- paper statements, numerous although minor injuries have re- farded the general conditionmg and physeal seascning of the men. Lee has a weak knee, Barrett a similar injury, which may take him out of the game at any mcment: Slakes a_bad ghoulder. and Smith a bad side.

Though the personnel of the team is practically decided, the above statement is abso- lutely true, for no one knows just what to expect of the men at any given time. Already the team has displayed meteoric briliancy and sickening apathy. One week they defeated the heavy Reliance team by a 44 to @ score and the next week are defeated by a light eleven from a fourth rate college by a score of 6 to 0. Probably Stanford never turned out a more brilliant or a more uncertain aggregation. It is safe to prediet that it will prove a surprise, but just which way is the puzzle that is worrying the coaches. The team is essentially a grourd gainer. They are happy when the ball is In their possession and are generally sure of their yards. The interference which they can bunch when they ate in the mood would delight thé heart of a Camp or Stagg. The backs can get off together like a bunch of wild sheep if the ground beneath them fs firm, but if the conditions are un- favorable it is a case of each one for himself. But under nor- mal conditions the trio back of the cardinal line can be de- pended upon. Slaker at fullback is the quickest man on the coast to get off with the ball, and his running mates, H'll and Smith, have learned to keep up with him. Upon ths playing of the men in the line depends the out- come of next Thursday's contsst to a great extent. Traeger and De Forest can be depended upon to play a steady, con- sistent game. Lee, Seeley and Burnett are capable of bril- liant work when at their best, but are mcre likely to play loose hall than the two men on the left side of the line. Burnett's injured knee may cause his early retirement from the game, as it is now keeping him out of even signal practice. In case Captain Burnett does retire his place will be filled by Tommy McFadden at end, who in turn will be replaced by Cooper. As matters now stand T. McFadden will go in at right end and either Luck, Stanford or Erb at left end. McFadden is the only vetsran end on the team and can be depended upon to play a steady game. “Stub” Raitt, the crack quarter, who has Leen away tén days, will return from the south in time to go through the last practices with his team and will act as field captain and cover the back field for the cardinal. After Monday no heavy work will be done, the men being allowed to rest. They will be put through light signal work only. BERKELEY, Nov. 2.—With a horde of coaches out assist- ing “King” Kelly of Princeton and with a dozen men guard- ing the practice field from intruding spectators, the Berkeley football men have been spending a busy but quiet closing week in grinding away at their gridiron secrets for Thanksgiving day. The muddy conditlon of the campus has hindered their work, but they have been kept at it vigorously and both first and second elevens have been playing quick, flerce football. The varsity has been trying under unfavorable conditions to HESE are the days of conjecture and prejudgment at both Not a word relating to any subject other than pigskin chances and Thanks- giving day possibllities 1s heard on either of the college grounds and this will continue until the annual gridiron com- bat of 1900 is a portion of intercollegiate athletic history. The game this yvear should be a close one and from all the signs of the time Folsom and Sixteenth street grounds should be larger than ever. wealthier display of color, those two attributes of a Thanksgiving day contest which mean as much to the general at- With the idea of an increased attendance in mind, the football management has made all nee- Falr weather conditions will draw out a crowd such as has never learn its new plays and perfect its team work, which, except on a few rare occasions, has been too ragged and only a dis- appointment. It Is to instill into the eleven the proper fighting spirit @and to whip them into playing together that the coaches are now bending every effort. The great question of backs Is now considered settled. Fullback will be Duden, This important chsnge leaves Braley and Overall out of the race. The displaced men are heavy and strong, of remarkably perfect physique and have displayed considerable ability in practice. Both seemed to be very well fitted for the place, but their fatal defects were in- ability to start quickly and to get off together with the other backs. This fault could not be overcome and its existence de- stroyed team work, demoralizing the interference and weak- ening the whole back field. The cholce of Duden seems rathq doubtful, although he certainly has a style of play that fits easily into that of his partners. As a halfback he led all com- petitors this year, being only excelled by Smith. Whether he will make a gaod fullback at this late day is a problem that 1s causing considerable anxiety, though the coaches have faith in the wisdom of their decision. - Gammeon will be left half. In his special fleld no one can ercel him. He is a dogged line-bucker and a star in swift, scattered fleld running. Mini Is his closest rival, but is con- i time dn:évfi'fil.%r‘ at right half with all his old. e e e —_—— STANFORD s rouisting OFF ROUGH EDGES, neavy work 1s THE orRDER AT CALIFORNIA the colleges—Stanford and California.

As In previous years, he has trained down fine and is at present dangerously near to being stale If Duden can be sure of diving through the center with any degree of success the question of ground gainers is easy, for Gammon is safe at running the ends and Smith for smashing the tackles.
