NLISTED MEN GIVE ENJOYABLE DANCE Fully a Thousand Guests Ac- cept Sailor Boys’ In- vitation. The third grand ball given by the en- listed men of the United States Naval Training Station, Yerba Buena Island, took place last night. The dance was given in the great drill hall, which is large enough to accommodate an immense assemblage. Everywhere there hung flags on either side and along the full length of the center of the hall. The grand march was led by Command- ant C. P. Perkins and Mrs. Perkins, and coming next were Lieutenant J. J. Rady and Mre. G. W. Brown, Surgeon and Mrs. Stuart and Chaplain Patrick and Miss Serpell. There must have been three hun- dred couples in the march, and the whole attendance of Ruests numbered quite a thousand. The hosts dispensed hospitality with the proverbial heartiness of the sailor lad. It was midnight before all hands took their departure after enjoying a very pleasant evening. e i LIBELS FOR LARGE SUMS FILED IN DISTRICT COURT L [ [ | - E Umatilla and Aurelia Demand Dam- ages From Each Other for Injuries Received in a Collision. The Pacific Coast Steamship Com- pany, as owner of the steamship Umatilla, filed a libel yester- day against the steam Schooner Aurelia to recover $3000 damages, and the Rassell & Rogers Company, owners of the Aurelia, filed a libel against the Umatilla to recover $9500 damages. Both suits grew out of a collision be- tween the vessels on October 27 near Broadway wharf. Peter Larsen filed a suit yesterday in the United States District Court against H. H. Peterson and John Doe Glynn of Delmar Landing to recover $10,000 for personal injuries sustained by the complainant by the fall of a bundle of Jumber upon him while engaged in loading a vessel at that landing. Lar- sen alleges that the accident was caused by reason of the negligence of the defendants. —_———————— LOSES HIS FINGER.—Charles Eichhorn, an empioye of & sausage factory at 1317 Pacific street, had one of his fingers taken off in the maching yesterday afternoon. He was at tha Emergency Hosvital \Enthusiasts Certain Eleven Will Beat California STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Nov. 10.— “We cannot and we will not lose,” is the spirit of the Cardinal community. “By what possibility can California expect to best our varsity, although they have nine veterans?’ *“Who cares for these veterans? They are the \remains of a badly beaten squad.” This determined and enthusiastic stand is expressed at every turn upon the “quad” and campus. “Where is California superior to the Cardinal?” “Surely not in team work!"” At least this Has been the testimonial of every delegation that has attempted to withstand the two big teams. The Sherman Indians, who, although they managed to hold Stanford down to a meager score in comparison to that run up by the Blue and Gold, one and all come forth and declare the fight put up by the men under Jimmie Lanagan's care was far superior in all depart- ments of the game to that of the Berk~ eley contingent. Glancing down the line-up the con- clusion is apparent. For instance, there is the speedy Snedigar, who is idolized by California. In the Oregon Agricul- tural gdghe he made a pretty run. But how coujd he help escaping if he had a spark ‘of talent at end running? All the men made an attempt to grasp the form of the bulky runner about the waist and shoulders. Perhaps Vander- voort can't do the classical hundred in ten flat, but he can put up a fair bluff, which in his ability to dodge and hurdle makes him, ecritics have de- clared, the more formidable of the two back-field stars. CHALMERS IS PRAISED. What man on the Berkeley line-up can call nimself in a class with Bull Chalmers? None could last year, and it remains to be seen whether or not Mead, with all of the coaching of Knibbs, has the faculty. Crow is at fullback, but whether th his. game | leg he can play his part in the contest as he has been doing is a question. If the handicap is not serious it is safe to say Snedigar will not find many chances to break away should he be fortunate enough to advance through the Cardinal line. When Crow retires, as it is expected he will be obliged to do, a substitute of marked power will be put,in. This man is Slusher, who, coming from another university last year, is eligible for the first time this season. He is superior to Crow when it comes to advancing the ball, but he cannot back the line with as much certainty. Of course “Stump” Stott wiil be at the position of field general. The most i sanguine of Berkeley fans do not at- !next to “Vet” CoE - PROFESSOR SEARLES PRAISES TEAW. Stanford football players must look forward to the game with some apprehension, not that their team Is weak, but because their ppponents seem on strong, unusually strong paper, at least. Experts o give a better line on the in- dividual players who compose the two teams, but Stanford ad- mirers were mnever more justi- fied in belleving that their team will put into their play every particle of strength and skill they have in them. That is important factor in such a con- test. The diseipline has never been better, the spirit never finer and if the University of California wins it will be be- cause it has a team that has more in it than the men of Stanford. — Professor Colbert Searlgs, Chairman Faculty Ath- Ietic Committee, Stanford Uni- versity. —_— 3 tempt to put any of their quarterbacks in the class with the Cardinal general. Hardly less proficient is Kenny Fenton. The youngster is deprived of being in the initial line-up because of his lack of weight.. The heady lad and his deadly drop kick are likely to be added to the scoring possibilities of the Stan- fordités before the end of the game. STANFORD LINE IS LIGHT. Coming to the line players the Stan- ford men, although considerably light- er, still seem to have.the advantage. There is one exception to this. For that matter it is the ‘only point, or properly speaking points, in the team the Cardinal backers will admit of any superiority. This “bugbear” and cause of many sleepless nights for Coach Lanagan is the filling of the terminals with proficient men. Besides an un- usual scarcity of material the coaches have had to combat with hard luck and sickness. The men who were looked up to two weeks ago to be the candidates for end were Lyons and Stanford. The fates have decreed that Jimmie Stan- ford is not to be successful despite his efforts. At least it is generally be- lieved he will not be one of the first to | enter the game, as he has recovered only a part of his strength which has wasted away while he lay on his back sick with la grippe. Lyons will surely be one and bably Koerner the other guardian of the terminals. These men are hardly in a class with the veterans California Las to oppose them. The Cardinal tackles are the pride Y /Hor is the of the coaches. , who, heaviest Clever Team Work Expected to Show Big Results. man on the team, will give Captain “Jim"” Force the game of his life. It is safe to say that on end plays Fresh- man Crawford’s man will not interfere to a great extent. These two husky lads will probably be called on to ad- vance the ball as much as any man on the team. s THOMPSON A VETERAN. Stearns and Gray will find their equals if not superiors when they come face to face with R. A. Thompson and Frizzell. Neither of these men is new to the game. Thompson has played three successive seasons with the Car- dinal and Frizzell, after learning the game at the Oregon University, has been a substitute of quality at Stan- ford. In his freshman game, when Stanford 1907 took the crack team of the Blue and Gold into camp, Molfino, played rings around Freshmen Center Haffey and is scheduled to repeat the per- formance. After sizing up the principal actors in the struggle there is another hardly less interesting topic and one which is hard to determine. That is whe is the superior coach and which system of coaching is most desirable and success- ful. Jimmie Lanagan is upholding straight football, played after his own style. Knibbs comes for the first time brimming over with trick plays and secret practice. Which will prove the best remains for fickle fortune to demonstrate. THINKS SHE IS SANE, BUT IS SENT TO AN ASYLUM s Friends of Her Mind. Miss Mary A. _to Because she took great pains to im- press on the minds of her friends and neighbors that she was perfectly sane, Miss Mary A. Hardigan, a dressmaker, residing at 660 Capp street, was sent to the insane asylum at Napa yesterday afternoon by Judge Graham. Miss Hardigan has been laboring under the hallucination that she has been pos- sessed of a sound mind for the last seven years and of late she became so demonstrative that the neighbors com- in Miss igan on several occasions wrote letters to the police, telling them that officers had been threatening to railroad her to an asylum. She bother- ed the neighbors till they could not tolerate her any longer and her arrest llowed. It took the Lunacy Commis- 1 ‘:fimmummum to discover the ‘woman to be a real maniac < — has Our men have condition eame opportunely, it it had to come, as there has beem suf- ficient time since then to key up the men to the high tension required by the ome game of the senson we have set our hearts on winning. A feeling of confidence is felt by every member of the squad, which is a good sign at this period.— Cn:del James Lanagan of Stan- ford. - FLOWER SHOW CONTINUES TO ATTRACT BIG CROWDS Prizes Are Awarded for Best Floral Designs and Table Decorations. The flower show of the California State Floral Society and Pacific Coast Horticultural Society attracted another large audience !? the ferry building last night. The beauty of the opening exhibit was enhanced by a number of magnifi- cent floral designs and table decora- tions. The first prize among these was won by Frank Pelicano & Ce., 225 Kearny street. Their design represented a Venetian boat, about six feet long, wrought in Bridesmaid rosebuds, the deck of the barge being filled with lilies of the valley. This exquisite ornamentation rested on a bed of soft, filmy ferns. The second prize was won by Louls Motroni, 2332 Fillmore street. It rep- resented a barrel of wine. The barrel was made of yellow straw, covered with grape leaves and clusters of grapes, surmounted by great bunches of cardinal carnations and cardinal streamers. The music of the First Regiment Band, National Guard of Cal- ifornia, was a feature of the evening. The exhibition will close to-night. — RACING! START OFF RIGHT AND TWO-LONG RACING! o lt WIS SHOULD LEAE EARLY Southern Pacific Exeursion Tickets to Palo Alto Can Be Bought Only Up Town P, BUSES AT UNIVERSITY | | Visitors Will Be Transported to the Campus Grounds. Where They Can Get Lunch [ | 1 [ n view of the fact that the Third and | Townsend depot Is so {ll arranged for accommodation of a great number of p kets on an sengers who wish to buy t excursion trip such as to-day's to Pale Alto will be, the Southern Pacific offi- jcials have positively declared that tha excursion tickets good on its special trains to-day will be soid only at 813 | Markat street, 528 Market street, Univer- y Club, Stanford Club and the Univer- sity of California Club. Under no con- ditlons will any exeursion tickets be sold at the Third and Townsend streets sta- tion. It will be well for all who intend witnessing the greatest college game of the year to bear in mind this fact about the selling of the excursion tickets. | The Southern Pacific Company has only [ 150 cars set aside to handle the immense crowd that will journey to Palo Alto. The first spe train will leave at 8:15 a. m. Other ecial trains will follow at 9:15, 10:15, 11:15 and 11:50 in the morning and ¢ ill leave at and 12:15 p. m. ain will make two trips, starting back for this city as soon as it deposits iis passengers at Palo Alto. The excurston tickets will not be seod on any of the regular trains, but the reg- ular trains will carry passengers to Palo Alto at the regular rates. At Palo Alto the buses will be at hand ‘lD take the crowds te the football field, |'xear\_\ a mile away”. It will be well for |evory ome to get an eariy start, for the | capaity of the buses is limited. The train sgrvieg, too, is Ifkely to be msuffi- clent if the crowd waits until the last minute to leave the city. Many spectators will make the trip to | Palo Alto in automobiles. For the first | time the university authorities will per- mit these machines to enter the campus | grounds. Entrance must be made through the east gate, below the main avenue, and the automobiles may proceed close to the field. Preparations are being made to provide | luncheon for the crowd at Stanford. The | University dining rooms will be open to | visitors. In addition the managers of | Rgble Hall, the young ladles’ dormitory, | will serve a buffet luncheon under the | trees just east of the Quadrangle. The return trip on the railroad can be | made immediately after the close of the | game. The trains will be run out of Falo | Alto every few minutes.and the empty | cars sent back to make up new trains. It is here that a congestion of the crowd will likely occur, for the facilities for | handling crowds at the Palo Alto station | are inadequate. Many of the University\ | visitors will remain during the evening to | witness a Stanford production of “The | Beauty Shep,” which will be given as the Iregular football show. e s i ‘; ‘Will Enfertain the Poe Brothers. The University of Princeton Club will give an informal smoker’ to-night in the | banquet hall at Tait's. The guests of | honor will be the Poe brothers, who | are here to referee the game at Stan- | ford to-day. All those who have attended Prince- | ton have been invited to participate in | the entertainment to-night, which will begin at 9 o'clock. ——————— SOLID REPUBLICAN DELEGATION OF TEN Senators and Representatives Are Are ranging to Leave California to Attend Sessio: Congress. United States Senator Frank P. Flint, who came up from Los Angeles to at- tend the conference of the California Congressional delegation on the sub- ject of Sacramento River reclamation, will leave the city for the south this evening. Within the next two weeks he will go to the national capital. His family is there now and his children are going to school in Washington. United States Senator George C. Perkins will leave Oakland Thanksgliv- ing evening for the East. Representatives McKinlay and Mo~ Lachlan went to Santa Rosa last even- ing. Mr. Hayes of San Jose and Mr. Kahn of this city will leave here for Washington as early as the 15th inst. . Representative J: N. Gillett of the First and S. C. Smith of the Eighth District were not able to attend the river session at the Palace yesterday. It is expected that the two Senators and the eight members of the lower house, comprising a solid delegation of ten, will obtain for California the rec- ognition that the State deserves from the general Government. —_———————— SOW NASTURTIUM SEED ON BARREN CLIFFS OF ALCATRAZ the Bristling Gums. The Qutdoor Art League department of the California Club made a pilgrim- age to Alcatraz Islad yesterday for the purpose of planting nasturtium seeds on the barren cliffs. The party, under the leadership of Mrs. Lovell White, enjoyed the courtesy of the Government tug General McDow- ell. and tie ceremonies of seed plant- ing were quite successful, despite & scarcity of fresh water. —_—— There is no gaining love without giving 1t RACING!
