JOHNNY MORE, THE CLEVER QUARTERBACK, ‘IS SHOWN AFTER HAVING BIG GUARD'S KICK. % ERKELEY, Oct. 23.—The recent Bs\nrmy weather has interfered greatly with the football work at the university. The squad has not ap- | peared upon the field since Monday night, but has had to content itself with light signal practice upon dryer ground off the campus. The second eleven has 1.6t lined up against the varsity at all for the last five days. ‘The forced cessation from hard practice has rot worked any material hardship upon the team, as it has been the policy of the coaches and tralner to ease off_on the work of late. The men are nearly in condition at present and no chances will be taken in having any of %hem laid {vp in a hard practice with the scrub eleven. Much interest is aroused among the varsity over the coming game between Nevada and Stanford on Saturday and | considerable speculation 18 indulged in upon the showing which the cardinal will make against the sagebrush team. The games between Nevada and the two big universities will give. the only reliable tip on the outcome of the big intercol- lcgiate game on November 8, for the con- t=tant changing of both the Reliance and |the Alumni teams has afforded no pos- sible criterion to judge by. Last year the Nevada team made a bril- liant showing on' the local gridirons. Berkeley was startled by their whirlwind style of playing and was unable to score until the second half, when superior con- | dition finally won out. C. Smith, Nevada’s | glant guard, made -a monkey of Stow, Berkeley's left guard, and forced his withdrawal from the game at'the end’ of1 the first half. | The general feeling at Berkeley is that | the Nevada gamés will'be the crucial test | of both Stanford and .California, and that | the team which makes the best showing against the Reno boys will be the winner of the intercolleglate laurels.. Berkeley wiil consequently go-into the game. with Nevada with the determination to win by a large score. An impartial size-up of the present con- dition of the Stanford and Berkeley teams, made by V. D. Lederman, half back on the '99 Columbia team, favors Berkeley as the winner of the intercolle- giate. He mentions the superior kicking and team work of Californla as belhg | points strongly in her favor. : “The California varsity,” said he, *“is | especially strong in having -a .quota of men, consisting of Overall, More and Sherman, who can be safely relied upon to boot the pigskin for forty or fifty yards, Stanford has but two men who punt:with anything approaching consisténcy and ad- curacy, and they do not admit of the ends getting down on the ball. “Overall's kicking far outclasses any-| thing dore in the punting line by Stan= ford’s backs. both in ease and accuracy, The amount of practicing -done by the Callfornia punters in trying place kicks and kick-offs is highly commendable and shows California’s superiority in this branch of the game. “One feature, an all important feature in the game, California excels in. They get into play with a uniform jump which Boes far toward advancing the ball. Stan- ford has a pretty formation in receiving kicks and running them back which will bother California’s ends greatly.. On the whole California has the superior team.” Of the men who played in last Satur- day's freshman game, one stafds pre- eminent as a strong candidate for varsity honors. This is Middleton, captain and right tackle of the California freshman team. He will continue training' and will make a bid for the vacant right /tackle on the varsity. ‘Weighing about 160 pounds, quick to get in the play and. aggressive from start to finish, Middleton has all the. qualities of a crack player. 1lie is strong in the defense, as_was shown by the futlle bucks sent at him last Saturday. On the offense he is a hard man to keep from breaking through the line. e — NEW EEAVYWEIGHT BOXER MAKES SUCCESSFUL START Spider Kelly's new pugilistic discovery, ““Toothpick™ Kelly, made his debut last night at the Bay City Athletic Club anc succeeded in racking his opponent, George Klinke, to sleep in the first' round. Thz2 bout between the two heavyweights was Wwildly exciting. Kelly looked bigger than Jeffries when 'he stepped into: the ring. Klinke, though not so large, was stock- ily built and well. muscled. -Kelly made an excellent showing. for a novice. R. E. Arrow and George Murray, two middle-weiglits,: put up a rattling good bout-while it lastéd. Near.the end of the first round’ Arrow caught Murray a.crusa- ing right<hander on the jaw and he,went ‘to the floor. -Jack “Cordeil--and . George | Hermann, a'brace: of welter-welghts, fur- nished ‘a fast bout.- .Hérmann had _the | better of the bout.in the first round,. but Cordell. - was too shifty for him. ~In a mix-up Hermann went groggy and Cor- del finhshe«_l him' with ‘a.smash in the {stomacir. Joe Carrol knocked ‘ouf Tack Summers in two:rounds. Dick Highiand and Man- . uel Torres fought two whirlwind rounds. -Torres. was all over his opponént «in, the first round, ;but Summers kept : plodding. along in the.second: and Torres quit after getting a ‘hard right in t stémach. _Joe CroWley sent James Perry groggy in the fourfh roynd after making a rally against .“his 'clever: oppo Réferee :Jimmy McDevitt then -stopped’ the bout. ‘The decision went justly to Crowley.

Few if any feel confident of a -varsity victory in the light of the recent defeat of the Reliance eleven by the University of Nevada foot- ball players. In the game between Ne- vada and Stanford played on the cam- pus two years ago the Reno players proved the victors on a muddy field. In- dications point to a gridiron in equally poor condition to-morrow. It is hardly expected that history wiil repeat itself as to scores: In last year's game the sagebrush eleven went down to defeat before the cardinal team by the score of 12 to 0. There are many careful students of the game who will claim that Stanford’s team is weaker now than ‘last yeéar and that Nevada's has been strengthened. The game will undoubtedly be 'a hard-fought contest from start to finish. The Reno boys have had the best of coaching this season and should be well up in all the points of the game. Coach Steckle was rated a mem- ber‘of the All-American team after play- ing on the Michigan varsity. Steckle has two brothers” on the team, one at right half and the other at left tackle, who are sald to have, in a large degree, the football instinct and ability which charac- terize the playing of the elder Steckle: Yesterday's practice was a repetition of the preceding one, the second eleven hold- ing. the varsity for downs on several oc- casions and’ allowing the big team to score only once during the entire practice. The heavy downpour soaked the field and made. the-ball heavy and slippery, both teans fumbling it frequently. Nevada's‘games with Stanford and Cal- ifornia ‘should form a-good criterion from which_ to .judge, the relative strength of the rival varsity. .elevens. California, howeéyer, should be in almost perfect coa- dition'when it meéts Névada on Novem- ber’ 1,-"while. Stanford- may develop con- siderahly after.itsigamé - with the Reno team. !

The San Fran- cisco Yacht Club, having recently had a jinks, a day of nautical sports and a night at the theater, will give a dance in the main hall of the clubhouse at Sau- salito. out to Fort Point and- along the water LL the yacht clubs hold their elos- front. It will be high water at 8:01 in tha merning, and there will be an ebb tide entil 1:56 ». m. Already the fleet of the San Francisco Yacht Club is beginning to seek winter rters. hker summer moorings in front of the clubhouse and has taken up her winter | meorings to the north of the ferry slip, | where the schooners Virginia and Ra- mona and other craft are already lying. | On Sunday W. M. Edgell took the launch Imp from Sausalito to Suisun, making the trip in 3 hours 55 minutes, towing no skiff. The Imp will spend the winter in the sheltered waters of Suisun Creek. The racing yacht Challenger took out a parcy of young people on Sunday, being navi- gated by Allen Miller and C. Buell in the absence of her owner, W. G. Morrow. She will spend the winter on the ways belonging to W. G. Morrow at Old Sau- salitc. sloop Juanita, with D. Meyer’s sloop Hal- cyon and probably some other craft, will enter the lagoon at Tiburon on Sunday, November 2, to remain until the opening of next season. Dr. T. L. Hill's sloop Cygnus and Hill & Welch's sloop Quesn will lie in Corte Madera Creek off the boathouse. That it is already becoming dangerous to leave boats at their summer nioorings is shown by the fact that the big sloop Ariel and the little sloop Sea Fox were carried ashore by the moderat storm of last Monday morning. The Corinthian Yacht Club will close the season to-night with a vaudeville en- tertairment at {ts Tiburon clubhouse. After the usual supper of clam chowder, pork and beans and other nautical dishes, the miembers will adjourn to the main hall for the jinks. The following will take part in the entertainment: J. Cath- cart and George Ryap, Oscar Franks, Ben Tarbox, George McBride, “Kid” Nel- son, Joe Eppinger, Harry Dimond, Sam Montserrat, Clarence -Wendell, ‘D. W. McLaughlin, “Pete"” Sloane, C.

Thompson, “Ed- Angelo and Walter Howe. -morrow at 11 o’clock the Corinthian fleet will cruise over to Sawzalito, where it will join the San Francisco fleet, sailing thence to Fort Point and along the city front, where the California fleet will be met. The cruise of the combined fleets of the three clubs will present a pretty sight from the shore. On Sunday, November 2, the bridge at Tiburon will be raised at about npon and the Corinthian fleet will pass into the lagoon. The Californla Yacht Club will hold a clesing jinks for its members at the club- house on Oakland Creek this evening. To-morrow the last crujse of the season will be taken along thecity water front in corjunction with the San Francisco and Corinthlan fleets. The California Yacht Club last month adopted a design by Miss Roberta Clay for a seal. An old- lime galleon stands in relief in the center <f the seal and around it is the club's name and the date of incorporation, The wotto is “Remis Velisque.” ————— Lawson’s Horse Loses Blue Ribbon, ICANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. %L.—Before thie largest attendance of*the week at the Kansas City horse show in ‘Convention Hall the most notable feature was the de- feat of Glorfous Enderling Prince the great — $5000 chestnut “nigh school” saddle horse, . owned by Thomas W.

The first eighteen holes of the match were played last Saturday on the course | of the Menlo Park Golf Club and resulted jin a lead for the home team of 5 up. A. G. Harvey, who, as the strongest member of the San Rafael Golf ub, | played No. 1 on the visitors’ team. made the ‘excellent medal play score of 38 for one round, notwithstanding the fact that | the first hole cost him six strokes. Perry Eyre of the Menlo Park team, HE second half of a home-and-home golf match over thirty-six holes be- made the good score of 41, 42. He was enly 2 against Mr. Harvey. For the San team the largest gains were made by iton A. Curtis, who beat Burke Corbett 6 up, and by E. J. Hooper, captain of tke visitors' side, who won 3 up from Percy Selby. For Menlo Park the best score was R. A. Macondray's | R. J. Davis. | to-day begin at 1t | n Rafael men, though | without the valuable help | A. G. Harvey, hope to wipe off tha five holes against them and win mateh. R. Gilman Brown has returned to | Rafael from the East, whither he a | panied Mrs. Brown, who played in the | annual contest for the women's cham- | plonship of the United States. He will | probably take part in-to-day’s match, After the match is finished the visitors will be entertained at luncheon by the San Rafael Golf Club. This is the first | event arranged since E. J. Hooper be- came captain of the San Rafael Golf Club. | He is much encouraged by the interest that has been taken in it. In previous seasons, as soon as the summer schedule of events has been played out, the San Rafael Club has gone to sleep and has not awakened until the following spring. This year Captain Hooper hopes to mair- taln interest by a serles of inter-club matches, the next being probably against the Burlingame Country Club. Later 2 match may be arranged against the Qak- land Golf Club. The place of W. E. Lester, who is In Europe, on the tournament committee of the San Francisco @Golf Club has becn taken by H. M. Hoyt. It is probable competitions will be arranged to take place on the Presidio links on election day ‘and on Thanksgiving day. The tour- nament committee, whicn consists of Warren Gregory, H. C. Golcher and H. M. Hoyt, will shortly issue a schedule of events for the fall and winter, It is doubtful whether the Sausalito Golf Club will be able to maintain its existence. For about a year-the course, which is on the United States military reservation at Lime Point, has been tm- available owing to the extensive building operations carried on by the Government. So many buildings have been erected or are contemplated that it will be impos- sible to get g course. The country aroung Sausalito is so hilly ana rugged that a tract suitable for a links is impossible to obtain. Golf being impossible the hill tribes of Sausalito will try to establish a lawn tennis club and to build one or two asphalt courts, which will be available for play all the year round. the ———— Golfer Vardon Defeats Braid.
