Stanford attempted to score again and for while it looked I PROBABLE, but the teams were by TINS time settling down to work and Stanford $ | gains were not dangerous. Berkeleys at TEN pts were ncar being rewarded | couple OF times, put with the ball close Stanford held them from their line. Alcklng was resorted to frequently and stanford Was evidently playing to retain her lead more than to score. Ransome made brilliant run, passing all the | Stanford team but Cochrane, whose KICK ne caught and ran IN. He landed the ball close to the goal, but Berkeley could not | push it over. The second half began by Ransom kick ! in. to Stanford’s 10-yard line. BY slow but steady advances Stanford reached its own 30-yard line, and then Cochran punt ed for forty yards, the best punt he made | during the game. Hilborn caught it.and as soon as the team lined up Ransom | punted for good distance to Cochran. J. Reynolds, with splendid interference to assist him, circled the end for gain | OF eight yards. At this stage Hilborn, who had replaced Hnpp, was ruled off OF the HELD on charge of smuggling | Fickert of the Stanford eleven. Carr took MS PiuSos aRulu tTIet Suiiioi- | MAS right end and was equally success | ful in his gain of territofy, but the next | play the oval was fun bled and Cslifor- MIA secured it. Ransom kicked to stan ford’s 50-yard line and Cochran got the ball. l, was evident that Berkeley was going to utilize kansom’s kicking ability to The utmost. After the Stanfords saw mat rlunges Though the center were fruitless they gave the ball TO Cochran 10 punt, but his kicking was turned toward the side and advanced tho ball only ten yards. Ransom then tried the same sort OF game ard with greater success, punting the pigskln to Stanfords’ 35-yard line. California, in its several trials, lost the ball on downs. Stanford drove 1t back by variety of line plays to within forty yards of CALIFORNIA; goal and then lost the ball. Ransom kicked to the Stanford 45.yard line, and on a Stanford fun ole Berkeley secured the ball. After California had tried to circle the Cardinals ends, Ran som punted to the Stanford l0-yard line. but Cochrane caught the bail and ran fifteen yards before he was downed. The Berkeley people we’re putting up detense and Stanford resorted to punting. After the second down Cochrane punted for thirty yards. Then sherman, WHO was doing the line hucking and rum NJ for his team in all these short gains. hit the Stanford inc for five yards, but his men were unable to gain the necessarv distance in the three succeeding tries. Spaulding, whose running was feature of the game, made long dash around Wilson’s end for aftesn yards. Cochrane followed HIM with Kick to Berksley’s 45-yard line. Ransome returned the punt to Cocbrane, who was downed in his tracks, OF his own 40 yard line. BY rushing Stanford moved the ball ten yards and Cochrane punted to California’s 40-yaid line, but Ran some fun bled and Stanford got the oval once more. Spaulding dashed through the center for ten yards, but on the four succeeding downs California got the ball. BY short advance and a long runt of Ransomes the ball settled on the Stanford 5O-yard line in Californias possession. The ball was given to Ran som and with the interference OF Hutch inson he eluded his pursuers and made a beautiful run of forty yards, the longest of the day and the most brilliant per Torrance seen In this city during this game. He cleared the line men soon after the start, shook off two or three of those who attem pied to tackle him and dashed up the field toward Stanford’s goal. Cochran, on Stan ford’s tenyard line, was there waiting Cor the fleet runner and he tackled Ransome, bringing him to earth. Without systematic or appointed inter. ference the brilliant full back had COW cred over forty yards. California was I’M able to force the ball over and Stanford, by the strongest KIND OF defensive play, managed to keep the Berkeley men from scoring. Cochran, getting the ball on downs, kicked poorly to the side for ten yards and again Berkeley returned the ball to the ten-yard line on run by Sherma He fumbled, and Stanford took the ball. Cochrane again punted to the side for ten yards and California tried but could not advance the oval the necesa ilfn 90 Sf.n r1 vro n in M H IN try. No appreciate advancs could be made aud Cochrane again took the bsll to punt and gained only five yards. With the bail on Stanford twenty yard line. Ransome and Sherman were forced through the tackles ana ends an1, step by step were nearing the enemy’s goal. BY desperate smashing and breaking through the line the ball was carried to within four yards OF the goal Twice Cal ifornia sent Its men against the Cardinal line and twice they were repulsed with little gam. The signal was given the third time and now it was Plunketts time to show his strength and ability. He responded and MADE the hole for Sherman to crawl through to touch down. California, in its several trials within a few minutes, succeeded at last and the score stood to 4.

Chicago 4, Boston 4, is the way the score stood at the end of the otball game played between the athletic clubs of the two towns today, and it was great game, at least anybody who knows anything about football says it was.

The South Berwick played as one man and defeated the Phillips Exeter Academy boys 8 to O. q. p. 46, Cornell 2. lin field this afternoon, amid the cheers of $4,000 people, the University of Penn sylyania closed the second season of I’M broken victories in foot ball by defeat ing the Cornell College eleven by a score of 46 to 2. From the start to the finish Cornell was never in the game. Penn sylyania scored II points in the first half and 20 in the second. Cornell scored it’s two points on a safety touchdown from Brookes fumbling the ball when it was passed to him for kick. Throughout the entire game with the exception of few moments in the first half, Pennsyl vania S was offensive and defensive piay was as fine an exhibition of fast scientific football as has ever been seen in this CITY. Over weighted, out-played and swept away before the furious onslaught of thu Quakers, the Ithacans fought braveIy. but it as in vain that their backs hurled themselves against Pennsylvania’s i’m preqnable line, or attempted to start the ends, and towards the last it only became a question of time for the red and blue To score touchdowns after touchdown.
