Two teams bf |lon,, -haired youths were waiting and | eager for the fray. | thusiasts had gone to the college town { from neighBoring cities to cheer the ered the strong- | youngsters while they bruised each | | other. All things looked auspicious. | Then Coach Hopper, the diminutive | head of the blue and gold, announced | there would be no game on account of | rain and a muddy field. | *Pete” Smith nearly had a spasm when he was informed of the change of plan by telephone. He had already begun to congratulate himself on the | vietory he expected to win. His men | were disgusted. The crowd that had | come to see the game was disgruntled jand would not accept the explanation | offerea. No one had ever heard of a football game being called off by reason of rain. Easterners who were present remem- bered that a good field and a clear sky are rarities for the big November | games and said Coach Hopper was afraid that Olympic would do to Berke- ley what she did to Stanford last Satur- day. Some observed that . Hopper | thought his young hopefuls might catch cold. Others believed he feared *“‘Pete” Smith’s huskies might treat their rivals | in an unladylike manner once they had them on the field. Olympic and Cali- | fornia supporters alike”were puzzled and angry to hear that the game was called off for such a reason as that ad- vanced by the head of the football - | boara. Hopper said a game in the mud would { be of no benefit to his men and would afford no interest to the spectators and that, therefore, he felt it best to cancel the contest. | Captain Smock of the Olympics said: | “No one ever heard of a football game being called off on account of rain and mud. Back East we are sure of bad :grounds after the first of November. If Stanford had beaten us about fifteen to nothing there would have been a | game to-day. Hopper knows we have a crack-a-jack team this year and he knows we would have beaten Califor- nia. That is why the game was called off. Cavanaugh, the Olympic giant center, sald: “This is twelve years of footbail | for me. I have played on the Univer- sity of Chicago eleven and on other big’ | teams in every sort of weather and on | flelds where the mud was a foot deep. | We were ready to put it all over Cali- | fornia to-day and they knew it. I never saw a game canceled on account | of mud.” Olympic will try conclusions, with Stanford again next Saturday and with California October 8, Several of the blue and gold football men are out of commission at present, but it is con- fidently expected the aspect of affairs will change shortly and that the pros- pect of turning out a champlonship team will become drighter. Some of the California students were wishing for a coach of the caliber of Garry Cochran or of “King” Kelly after the flasco of yesterday. it e e e i B of the morning game. Shortly after the game commenced he made a forty- yard run for a touchdown. Wilmerding was constantly on the defensive and the score would probably have been larger if the field had been dry. Lowell scored a touchdown in each half, but failed twice for goal. The final score wag 10 to 0 in Lowell's favor. The line-up follows: Lowell. Bregnol! Egenhoft (Capt.) ‘Wiimerding 0.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Sept. 24.—The Btanford football team easily defeated the eleven from Pensacola Training School this afternoon, mak- ing six touchdowns and kicking four goals for a total of 34 points. The sailors could not get near the mrln" line. game was far from satisfactory to the cardinal supporters. Fumbling was frequent, the Stanford backs twice losing the ball to their op- ponents and failing to gain because of this fault a score of times. The sig- nals seemed elusive, too, the backs getting the play mixed and hitting at different spots in the line, while the quarter was left standing with the bn.u vnlnly trying to pass it to some- Penallr.lnx was frequent, the card- inal being fined seven times for a total of ninety-five yards. Although the game was not satis- factory as a whole, yet there were a great many pleasing features about it. Chief among these was the improve- merit in speed.

Graves- end courge “to-day nearly 20,000 per- sons, all anxious to see if ‘this grand filly could retain her crown when op- posed to. Broomstick, Africander and McChesney in the"Second Special. The question was answered in the affirma- tive and in such emphatic style that no one could be found to deny the superla- tive merits of this famous filly. Taking the lead when the barrier was released Beldame opened up about four lengths in the first four furlongs. At this time Africander was running sec- ond, Broomstick third and McChesney was plodding along in the rear, three lengths behind Broomstick. It was noticed that when one mile had been covered McChesney was holding his own, Africander’s effort to reduce Bel- dame’s‘lead eventually told on him and, while the great fillly came home an easy winner by several lengths, there was a stryggle for second place. Burns nursed the"tiring Broomstick so clever- ly that he earned second money. Afri- cander stopped so fast that McChes- ney, coming up next the rail, got through in time to be third by a small margin. TRe time for the mile and a half was 2:35 2-5.

NEW YORK, Sept. 24.—Hardy B, Durham, a well-known horse owner and trainer, to-day dropped dead at Sheepshead Bay race track. He had just stabled his favorite horse,, De- kaber, after watching the animal at work on the track. A strange coincidence was connected with the horseman's sudden ending. Last Saturday at Brighton Beach track Dekaber won a race, beating Os- trich in a close finish. When the lat- ter animal was led baek to the stable at Sheepshear the foreman, - Gus Hanan, asked the stable boy if he had won. Learning that the horse, upon which he had wagered a large sum, had been beaten by Dekaber, Hanan threw up his arms and fell dead. ——— PERSONAL.

CHICAGO, Sept. 24—Despite the threatening weather a big crowd took advantage of the last opportunity of the season to-day to visit Harlem track. A good card of seven races was offered, with two stakes—the Prarie and the Forward—as featutes. The first, which ‘was badly punctured by scratches, was won in a hard drive by Spencerian. After a “magnificent stretch effort, he got up in time to de- feat Stroller by a neck, amid deafening clamor fron: the ' occupants of the grandstand, the majority of - whom sidestepped the prohibitive odds on Stroller and played the winner at 13 to 5. The stake had a gross value of $2595, the winner's share being $2095. The result marked Spencerian’s six- teenth victory this year. She has started in twenty-eight races and has been outside the money only three times. M. H. Tichenor & Co.'s handsome black filly Loretta M captured the For- ward stakes for two-year-olds easily from Lady Savoy, with Sis Lee third. Loretta M was said to be able to do great things in the mud and she was made a strong favorite at 9 to 5. Sis Lee had the most speed in the. early part of the race and showed the way by a narrow margin to the stretch bend. Here Loretta M dashed to the front: with a few quick bounds and simply ran away from her field, win- ning by half a dozen lengths. The stake had a net value of $2060 to the winner. 2 The steeplechase was a spectacular affair from start to finish. John T. Owens scored his third straight vic- tory. Nine horses started. Four of them fell at various stages of the con- test. None of the horses nor riders were-injured. Summaries: FIRST RACE—Five and a half furlongs; two-year-olds: Betting, Horse, Wel ot Sare falr.

He claims to be able to double cross any good ball team in_the league, but when he goes against one of the speckled beauties he gets his. Four times have his An- gels mixed it with the Commuters this week and on each occasion theirs was second money. It happened yesterday at Recreation Park, just as it has been happening right along and the wind-up was—Oakland 3, Los Angeles 2. Errors and sloppy baseball helped. The Angely made hits enough to win three ball games, but they were not there on the sacks. Neither could they give Mr. Baum the support his efforts warranted. Although the fleld looked like the Protrero on a merry day in June, many hard chahces were devour= ed by the Commuters, who were on the boards for another high-grade exhibi- tion. While the fielders did not err, Mr. Jackson had everything and each An- gel seemed to be on his staff. Once the misplays happened, Mr. Jackson's deceptive powers seemed to wane. It was ia the sixth that the Angels got together and shoved two over the pan. Mr. Jackson did not show for the next round, but in his stead Mr. Graham took up the unfinished task. The Commuters did not lose any time in landing for a pair of runs. Ganley and Dunleavy ushered the bat- tle in with two biffs to the outfield and Schlafley bunted them on their way. Kruger produced a long fly to Eagar and Ganley arrived handily. But Ea- gar’s throw to Flood was lopsided and while Timothy pawed the mud in search of the sphere, Dunleavy wad- dled right ahead tlll he reached the plate. It went along then till the sixth without any more damage. Brashear was given a chance on Schlafley's fadey juggle and Cravath pushed one through Devereaux. Chase bunted and Mr. Jackson failed to make a gentle- manly toss to Stark, so it was a full house and no one in the cellar when | Toman singled to left and scored Brash. Ross had a fly which sent Cra= vath in, but the next two were easy. The deadlock only lasted half a round, for the Cripples were deter- mined. Schlafley tore off a bingle for a starter and Kruger dropped a bunt at the pan. Spies winged to Toman, who failed to grab and as the ball rolled out to center, Schilafley pulled up at third. Moskiman's long fly was all he needed to score the winning run. The game closed with a fast play. Spies opened up the ninth with a right fleld drive and Baum sacrificed. Eagar fanned, but Flood swung through with a sizzler to center. Kruger's throw was perfect'and Sples was stabbed ten feet from the home goal. The score: H. Los Angeles— AB. R. H.
