Martinez Girls Win Hoop Game, 20 to 11 MARTINEZ, Nov. 27 The Shell-ettes, composed of girls employed at the local office of the Shell Refinery and business houses of the city, added another victory to an already long string last night when they defeated the Senior girls of Alhambra High school on the Al-hambra Court 20 to 11. The score at half time was 10 to 6. Miss Inez Ray was high point scorer for the evening when she tallied half of her teams points.

By ART POTTER f'H 4 WITH the question of who -wiirbe their coach still in doubt, the California varsity basketball squad is ng the final stages of its preparations for their game with the Oregon State five at Harmon gymnasium December 23.

Coach "Nibs" Price has resigned both as football coach and hoop mentor, but the executive committee of the Associated Students recommend that his services be secured to' tutor the basketball Price has been the outstanding cage mentor on the coast for the past seven years. In that By BURNELL GOULD STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Nov. 27 "We'll let the gam tell its own. stpryA That was Coach Jack Cannell's answer to the question of how Dartmouth might fare against "Pop" Warner's Stanford varsity in Saturday's intersectional contest at Stanford. "Will the weather bother us? Not a bit." Cannell was not concerned with a change of climate, but possibly it was because the temperature at Stanford was far from humid.

Rain, in fact, started shortly after Coach Cannell and his men arrived for a brief yesterday anfl h)tg straI hter ana narjer; The trouble seems to be in lining up the managers. Since the fight with Shaff in New York, December 19, was announced, various divers and sundry folks have bobbed up with "pieces" of Max. J. Ham Lorimer holds the original contract. He sold part of it to Ancil Hoffman for $5000.

Pegg's Pride, Outsider, Wins Bayshore Pace BOWIE, Md Nov 17. (W With seven of the best horses quartered here entered and four of them racing for a victory af tho finish, Pegg's Pride, startled- racing followers by winning the Bay? shore handicap today. Pegg's Pride, a despised outsider In the good field, got a nose decision over Gun Royal in the six furlong event with JUdge Schilling a close third. Pegg's Pride was held at $37.80 to win in the mutuel betting. Judge Schilling was a lukewarm favorite and almost Justified tho choice, holding the lead until halfway down the home stretch.

Jockey Carroll on Pcgg Pride elected to come through along the inner rail and found a passage open to vie tory. Pegg's Pride came up in the last few strides to win. BURNS BATTLE TEUTONIA TO 0-0 TIE "V7ET weather yesterday made the field at Neptune Beach stadium soggy, but it did not keep the Burns and Teutonia from playing their league soccer game last night as scheduled. Muddy 'conditions proved too much of a handicap for scoring plays and the battle ended in a scoreless tie. A preliminary game between the Rangers and Redmen, two Junior clubs, also ended without a score.

Only a few hardy fans were on hand to watch the Germans play the Burns team, but those few were treated to an exciting struggle, despite the fact that It was almost impossible for either team to score. Both squads were playing brilliant defensive ball. All eyes were on Hans Specht, the new German center forward, who played an excellent game for the Teutonia team and provided the one real flash of the game by booting the ball through the Burns' goal for an apparent goal, only to have the referee call a foul on one of the Teutonlans and cancel the score. It was the only scoring spurt of the game and Specht lived up to his advance notices. It was apparent last night that the Burns felt the loss of Frank Gordon, star player who was suspended for a year for taking a punch at the referee in one of the Burns' games.

Jack Sneddon, a capable soccer player, took Gordon's position last night, bnt showed he Is still unfamiliar with the team play of the Burns. He should aid the team after another game or so, however, for his ability is unquestioned. The scoreless tie last night gave each team a single point in the league race, wh'ich Is headed at present by the Neptunes, Alameda's sole representative, and one of the surprise aggregations of the Burns went Into a triple tie for second place by virtue of the extra point gained last night They are tied, with the Barbarians and Olympic club, each having 10 points, while Neptunes hojd a slim lead with 11 points.

UP) Tho UniWsiyt of California at Los Angaios Bruins, determined to win at least one Conference football game this year, will forego part of tha usual Thanksgiving day holiday today to practice a bit more in preparation for their "cellar championship" game with Idaho here next Saturday. Tha Invading Vandals, tinder Coach Leo Calland, will arrive here tomorrow.

Like tho Bruins, they have lost all four of their conferenco starts and with the exception of Head Coach Bill Spanning, about everybody on the West-wood campus expects to make it five in a row for the northerners. Both teams have been well scouted. Bpauldlng has been drilling his charges assiduously in offensive plays. GRiTCLllES CANCELLED BY STORM CHICAGO, Nov. 27, (JP) One of those tough winters the old-timers talk about must be upon us, for it is indeed a tough winter that causes football games to be cancelled.

From all parts of the country, but principally in the middle west numerous cancellations and postponements were reported today, with severe snowstorms and cold tha reason for depriving gridiron enthusiasts of their Thanksgiving Day football entertainment. Snow, cold and Icy fields caused postponement of the following games: Bradley College-Cornell ot Iowa at Peoria, III. Luther College, Dccorah, -Columbia College of Do buqne at Decorah. United States Marines-Davis Klklns College at Grafton, W. Va, Scores of high schooii games In the mlddlewest wore called off or postponed, and the schools faced serious financial setbacks by the loss of the feature games of their seasons.

The weather was helped out by tlVe threat of a scarlet fever opl- deroio at Carthage, 111., which caused cancellation of the Carthage College-Western Illinois Teachers game tomorrow. Coach Knute Rockne of Notre Dame, remembering that a frozen gridiron In New York last year almost left the Irish with a score less tie with the Army, was apprehensive about playing conditions on Soldier Field, where tho Bame teams meet Saturday, but learned that the gridiron on the lake front was covered with tarpaulin. There was no guarantee, however, that the ground would not be as hard as stone. ii Sarazen, Es'pinosa in Match Play Victory VICTORIA, B. Nov.

Sarazen and Espinosa won the match and 8 on the 490-yard dog-leg fifteenth when the hole waa halved, In ar tours, HALFBACK FOR Hnjnr Hlllman is the line cracker Innft TTflrlnw nth Arf nft tonW-ta line for some of the longest gains of the year.

Stanford's most devastating work, nevertheless, bas been by nso of brilliant forward passing. Passes scored twice on Southern California, bent, Washington by three touch- downs, and paved the way for a second half rout of CallXor. nla. Moffatt Is a sure receiver, and that lateral after a forward to either end is a dangerous weapon not employed at all last week. The forward walls seem at standoff.

Dartmouth has the weight, but Stanford linemen, play- Ing the game they are capable of, can overcome this with a fast charge and smart playing. i Visiting critics of eastern foot ball, contend that two men the Dartmouth line are worthy of I series All-East consideration, mey say tnat Tackle Bill "Cretiart is a real All-American. It is a i pity that Captain Ray Tandy can nor nave a- cnanca to piay. With Crehan Is Gay Brom berg, left guard, who is equally powerful on both offense and defense. Then there is Captain Hal Andres, center, who is said to have outplayed tho much-heralded Ben Tick- nor in the Harvard game.

Stanford's line stars are few. Phil Neill is-not in the best of shape, and his substitutes, Don Col- vm, is chieriy valuable for his re-' markable ability at snagging forward passes. Bardln is a steady guard, and Hulen a fast one. Douh fighta hard, but astonishing gains have been registered around his end. "Lighthouse" Charlie Ehrhorn la a coming tackle, and Grey is also dependable, but at center Marks Is not In Taylor's class, and Perry, perhaps due to has not been playing his best ball.

Altogether, tha Stanford line Is far from great, but has played good ball In flashes. If Neill and Taylor are out, the guards will be the only veterans. Neither team Is confident. Dartmouth bas heard too much of western football, and Stanford is aware of both th Green's nndefeuted record, and Stanford's own inconsistency. Sherman expects Dartmouth "fto- hold SranJord for half, then crumple before superior reserves to lose by several touchdowns.

"Dartmouth has been en "Irou Man' team," ha says. "Virtually the same eleven men hava play el In the majority of games. Wheilit-e they can survive the Stanford ru-tack la a question." r- Coach Jack Cannell, however, Just says "We'll lot tha gsmo t- i its own story." And that la th. spirit of his men. JAILER FOR ALIAS Daniel Segantlsh of C'Ipvc' was Jailed for having foucht the name of Joe La pened to be ancu'uc time his teams-have-won line fiva times, tied -with tha Trojans 'orice and last season th Bears finished fast-to take- second, placa in the southern -division standings.

Meanwhlla Hap ITouvenln, star 'forward" on the 1924 California team has been in charge of the Houvenin has always led BearB in their early season work as Price has been busy with 'football until late in the fall for tha past six years. I A wealth of material Is on hand i from which Houvenin hopes to mould another southern division itttle winner. Captain Joel Coffleld leads the list of returning letter-'men, and coupled with his name those of Bill Davi and Carl iVendt. These thre men are all Iruards and the chances are that Coffield will be fitted into a for- Wai'd post.

i At center the big struggle for he berth left vacant by Pelb-y I Ten Eyck wiU probably fiijd Bud Warhurst and Jack Reld as the chief contenders for the post. Warhurst was 'len Kyck's understudy and played all through the Kansas series and also in some of tlxvmiuor tilts on the Bears' schedule. Held looms as one of tha greatest hoopsters ever to attend the university. Last season he was the bright star on a freshman team that went through thelf season without beine fjeaten. Reld's floor- ivork Is brilliant and his shooting Is consistently accurate.

He will probably get the over Warhurst unless the latter improves his Xloor play. The forward posts seem to he the weak spots in the Bear line-up. Both Tripp and Pur-cell, who led the California attack last season are gone, and there are no lettermen to replace them. Joe Klntana, who played forward on the Freshman team In 1999, has been showing up weU in the prcllml- nary workonta and may garner, one of the berths but he will no doubt need considerable seasoning before ho is ready to undergo the rigors of conference play. Tha switching of Coffield from guard to forward looms as a likely solution to the problem of the other forward position.

Coffield has a good eye for the hoop and his style of play will allow him to make the -shirt witnout hampering bis abill- 'ties. I In addition to these men there 'are a host of others who have played on the Varsity squad and them Granger and Bartlett seem to be outstanding. From the J'reshman there1, are Chashl, a Ipromlsing guard, and Murdoch, a (forward who seems destined to do jereat things. The Bears meet the Beaver five in Harmon and then rest 1 until January 0, when they will J-tangle with the barnstorming ilontaiu) University team, Tjy Baer got the "five G's" and they laBted him less than two weeks. Frankle Burns was given five per cent for training the -fighter.

So the Jaunt was arranged to take care of only Baer, Lorimer, Hoffman and Burns. While plans were being ruada the invasion in some other folks butted into the argument and demanded that reservations be made for them on the train and that they be con sulted before Max signed for any more fights. The added starters who could not accompany the party Insisted on sending proxies to protect their Interests until it appeared as though it would be necessary to charter a special train or at least a special car. The way tno noys in me dock room tell the story, every time Max felt In need of a few 'G's he would peddle a piece of himself until he Is spread all over the town. Of course this was his privilege as long as he did not start dealing any of the manager's Alden Humphries, who either owns a piece of Max or who represents somebody who does, Insists that ha be Included In the party and that he be given something to say about the fighter's business.

Lorimer holder of the original contract Is the manager-at-Iaw and must sign all papers but Hoffman is the manager-ln-fact and has the right to make all matches and divide all spoils. "Five Per Cent" Frankle Burns wants that and no more, but my goodness how he does want Itl Just how many pieces of himself Max sold nobody knows, perhaps not even Max! but it is rumored around the cauliflower parlors that he retains but a very small Interest in himself. And in the meantime Max's father who was moved in from a Livermore hog ranch and Installed in a palatial mansion in the Piedmont hills Is wondering just where he Is going to get off. When Lorimer held the exclusive contract Baer Sr. got ten per cent 'off the top' but the fam ily has been dealt out under the new arrangements.

Max of course has bromlsed to take care of his folks but if he has sold as much of himself as some folks say he has he may have a tough time taking care of himself. Don George Wins in Exhibition Contest LOS ANGELES, Nov. 27. OP) Don George, Michigan heavyweight, won a wrestling exnipmon Irora Dan Koloff, Bulgarian grappler, by taking the second and third-falls of their three fall bout last night. Koloff downed George with a body slam In six minutes, 33 seconds tor the first fall, but lost the second In zo minutes seconds to George on a Hying tackle.

Pete Herman Put On Suspended List PHILADELPHIA. N6v. 270P) The state athletlo commission has ordered four boxers, among them Pete Herman, Detroit, suspended indefinitely. No were siren, toe the suspensions. Dartmouth's line, and the experl- ence that the Green team got in the Harvard mud battle, may aid them against the Cardinals on a sloppy field.

Cannell refused to announce a starting lineup; said ho wouldn't do so at all before tho game, but PnbUcity Manager Chamberlain and Phil Sherman, Dartmouth newspaperman, agreed on a likely -oleven. Pop Warner, however, gave out Stanford's starting lineup, and so tho following are the probable opposing teams: STANFORD Pos. DAJtTMOTJTTf Doub REG. Whltehair Bhrhorn RTIi- Barber Bardln RGLi. Bromberg Ta.vlor or Marks.

(C) Andres Hulen LOR Hoffman Grey L.TR Crenan Neill or Colvin.LER Tiranch Hillman Morton Caddel RHL Wolff Moffatt or Clark Rothert Wilkin Stanford's lineup- does not include Captain Ray Tandy, who will be replaced by Chuck Ehrhorn, since Tandy's severe knee injuries will probably keep him out of his last college game. George Orey Is playing In place of Dick Bogue at left iackle. and a cracked rib may gWe Don Colvin phll NolU's place at left end, Just as Bill Marks may supplant the bruised Perry. Taylor at center.

Ernie Caddel Is a surprise starter In the announced lineup, for Guldo Cagllerl was expected to ppen at right half. If wet weather continues, a line game will keep Harlow Kotliert in at fullback in place of tho great forward passer, Bill Slmklns. Dartmouth will be prepared for aerial attack, however, In fact they have one of their own to spring counter. Stanford's passing game. For Dartmouth five reserve ends are contesting for the Jobs held by Forrest Branch and Jay Whltehair.

Len Clark, best Interfering back on the squad the man who paved the way for "Special Delivery" i Al Marsters' brilliant runs last season may start In place of "Wild Bill" McCall at right half. McCall, though, Is the shiftiest of tha. Green backs, and Is a better ground gainer than Clark, who bas the added handicap of being six weeks out of the game. McCall weighs 17 ff-and is "Injuries are also holding I back Arnle another 1 star halfback, bat Frlgard may get In Saturday. Ktan Tudicky, leading end, will see the game, but no action.

Bill Morton, 182 pounds, la the huskiest of a. light T)art month backfleld, which Is completed by Shep Wolff, 113-- potrcd left hair, and Bob Wilkin, 170-pound fullback. The Stanford backs are heavier, but are not lacking in speed and versatility, as California will testify. If the probable Stanford start Phil Moffatt is the trlckleet. but Ernie is pot a bit slow, KNIGHTSof theGLOVES BOB Si Ernie Owens and Dynamite Jackson who box the ten round main event at the auditorium next Wednesday night are due here Saturday and will train at the Duffy gymnasium.

Last time he appeared here Jackson broke his right hand on Hans Blrkle's head but the other night In Fresno he goaled Chief Whltehorse so the hitter must be all right again. Owens was stopped by Max Baer in his last local appearance. Jack Beasley is going good again and will be given a chance with Tlllle Taverna In a four-rounder Wednesday. If Beasley would only keep In condition he would win many more fights than he would lose. Abe Matin, manager of Charlie Belanger and many other well-known fighters died In Portland yesterday after a long illness.
