Mormon Backs Tear the Line to Shreds. -)': V. i. L) BY WILLIAM 31. HENRY.

Two plunging backs smacked Into a line that didn't tackle and the expected happened. The backs were Romney and Kay of Utah and the line was that of U.S.C. Utah won 2 7. to 12. Had It not been for two of the most scintillating; runs ever seen on any football field, both by Frank Malette, the Trojans would have been skunked S7 to 0.

Once Malette took Romney's punt on his own 16-yard line and ran through the entire Utah team for a touchdown. That was in the first half. In the third quarter he took the ball on his own 20-yard line and dashed eighty yards for another score. HANDCUFFED. 1 The U.S.C.

Nervousness on the part of the Utah backs coupled with 15-yard penalties by the dozen and excellent punting by Malette kept the Mormons from getting any place In the first quarter, but steady hammering, assisted by rotten tackling, brought two Utah scores with painful certitude In the second quarter.

The game was fiercely played and severe penalties were numerous. i Sparks was the star. He made spectacular runs of ten, fifteen and twenty yards, and directed his offense with good judgment.

-vVILLLVMS. With about everythinr done except hanging the crepe on the 1H season, "a few posthumous remarks may be made with propriety, The Los Angeles club is Just coming out of vthe fiercest fight ever waged In the Coast League, and has stood every test Meantime, hopes for a "last big week" In Los Angeles have been dynamited. There could be no more thorough testimonial to the honesty of baseball than the fact the closing series between Los Angeles and Vernon will not come' under the bead of "crucial." "The Los Angeles and Vernon clubs will be Jockeyed so as to be close together when the final week starts," a remark frecuently dropped by a few plnheads. who thereby displayed their utter Ignorance of baseball.

the Angeles take things easy? Not so that you could notice it A nine-game lead found them ftathting as hard for every game as when they were leading by only a point or so and pressed to the They were after the old flag and prized It above the gate receipts. On the basis of past perform-aances they could have gone inte the final series against Vernon with a one-game leedsor no lead at all, and won the pennant In the final days of play, with huge crowds turning out for every game. Instead, they went right alon smashing their way through all opposl tion, and two weeks before the sea son ended had piled up a lead that took all Interest out of the race. This meant a fortnight of baseball played at an actual and very considerable loss to the club. Instead of packed stands and fat gate receipts.

A "last big week" here meant anywhere from $30,000 to 000, and had ft so happened that the race wasn't decided until the last day of the season the park couldn't have held the crowd even with (Continued on Fourteenth Page.) try, and Frank Malette, one of the I i.n.innat hAk. it ha. evr kicking the goal was a mere formal lLr, to look unon. both The same pounding process our pleasure to look upon, both itv- Th to do their durndest.

In game full of thrills from atart to The champions. Here ta the club, tie manager, the owner and the boy who brought the finish, the Nebraska University football team ripped through the famous Oregon Aggies, particularly In the last half of the contest and carried away a well-earned victory to the tune of 17 to 7. It was fight to the finish.

Nebraska drew first blood and took seven points after line plunges and end runs, Caley carrying the ball over the Oregon Aggies' goal line five minutes after play started. Hardly five minutes more had passed and the' visiting Cornhuskers carried the ball again to -within twenty yards of the Oregon goal, where a fumble by Nebraska resulted In the O.AC.'s ten-second sprinter, "Tufty" Conn of Pasadena. grabbing the ball behind his own goal and, tearing through his opponents, he ran the full length of the field, a total of 100 yards for a touchdown.

Surprising the Huns by a whirlwind attack and a stonewall defense, the Sherman Indians this afternoon held the Pomona varsity to a l-to-0 score, while for the first half of the game there was little to choose between the two teams.

Only the return of Elliott to the game In the last half saved the contest for the Huns. Elliott carried the ball the length Of the field, almost by himself, and then took It over for the only score of the game after the Indians had held the Huns for three downs on the S-yard line. As was anticipated by many, the redmen staged a real "come-back" against, the Huns this afternoon. Time and again the Pomona backs carried the ball to the 8-yard line, only to be thrown back without a score, while at one time the Indians carried the ball, by means of a long forward pass, to Pomona's 40-yard line. Attache played a star defensive game for the Indians, but was nearly ruled out of the game several times on account of roughness.

Elliott was saved during the first half, but the coach sent him in as a last resort when the Huns failed to score during the first period. The first quarter produced little real football. After the Huns had lost the ball on Sherman's 10-yard line a punting duel started, which ended with the ball In Shermans possession on her 10-yard line. Again In the second quarter the Sage Hens managed to advance the ball to the very shadows of the enemy's goat this time losing It on a fumhle on the 1-yard line. Elliott sprung hla come-bark In the second half, and immediately an improvement was noticed in the offensive work of the Huns.

Elliott carried the ball for two beautiful 2 to 10. WHITHER OUTCLASSES BUY NOW!
