6 MERRILL'S SQUAD IS VICTORIOUS OCCIDENTAL AND U. S. C. PLAY RAGGED GAME Constant Fumbling Mars the Contest, Men Being the Worst ffenders In Merrill the Star WHAT THE COACHES SAY I am pleated at the outcome of today's game and feel that my men are rounding into good playing form. Tho toam work was excellent, the fumbling marred the contest.

Some of my men were not In tho best of physioal shape, but by the time of the Pomona game wo will be prepared to meet any opposition that the Pomonas may offer. There is much room for improvement, but during the coming week the weak place will be touched up. Coach Merrill of the Occidental team. My men never played poorer football. Fumbling lost them any ohance to soore.

Coach Holmes of the University. In a game replete with fumbles that made the contest uncertain and slow, the Occidental football team was vlcorlous over the University of Southern California yesterday afternoon on the Highland Park campus, by a score of 10 to 0. Outside of the fact that both elevens showed well at times on the offense and defense, fumbling marred what might possibly have been a fair exhibition. Something like hypnotism appeared to hover over the players of both teams and fumbling finally developed Into the spectacular part of the struggle. U.

S. C. did the most miserable work In this respect, and time after time the cardlnal-sweatered huskies would start on an advance march only to throw away what chance of a touchdown there might be. Merrill's team played with something of. machlne-llke precision, especially before Spaulding left the game, giving way to Hodge.

The latter played a good game in the field, but lost more than one opportunity by slowness in driving the team with quick signal work. Occidental Charges Well In rapid charging the Occidentals were superior to Holmes' squad and gained most of their ground by getting Into the plays low and hard, the men working together in fighting for the inches. The varsity team was able to gain through the black and gold forwards, but not with the same degree of success that marked the line plunging of the Highlanders. The Occidental ends were practically impregnable, A. Merrill and Hagerman In most instances throwing the varsity backs behind their own line for losses.

Merrill's men showed a strong defensive game all around and the big forwards had little difficulty as a rule in -getting the Jump on the university formations. Petty and Weiman played In; better form on the defensive than In any game during the season, though the former was not up to the form he has previously shown at the offensive play. The most ragged work of the day must be charged to the university men who fell below what was expected of them after the game with Stanford. Ochoa undoubtedly loomed up as the strongest player of the Methodist squad, and on both offense and defense he gave evidence of a natural ability for gridiron work. His line plunges netted the best gains of the day for the university during the first half, though Jack White, who entered the game in the last half, shared equally with the big full back in securing the needed territory.

Hairier was heavy, and at times made fair gains, but his slowness gave the Occidental backs ample opportunity to down him when he got through the forwards. A. Merrill the Star A. Merrill of the Occidental eleven carried off the honors for the longest individual gains, and in one instance on a split play skirted the left wing of the university for thirty-five yards bringing the ball within the shadow of the U. S.

C. goal posts. Clark, the big full back of the orange and black, showed the same steady form that distinguished his play against the St. "Vincent team and was equal to a gain in nearly every Instance that ground was needed. Bruce Merrill and Thatcher played more consistent ball than In any of the games thus far during the season, and showed a better aptitude at the defensive game than in the previous contests.

The orange and black line exhibited the result of low charging drill and with the exception of a few Instances fell before the opposing rushes of Holmes' men. Had it not been for their fatal fumbles the Occidental men would have run up a larger score, as the varsity players found it Impossible to keep the ball for more than three or four downs without tossing it to an Occidental man. U. S. on the other hand, would in all probability have scored at some stage of the game, barring their fumbles, for in more than one instance they started off in a steady march to the Occidental goal for what seemed In all likelihood a touchdown.

The team work of the Highlanders wag far ahead of that of their opponents, and that fact alone would have given them a victory, casting the fumbles of either side out of the question. Occidental Must Work If Occidental is to win against Pomona next Saturday, however, there must be gome hard work, for the Highlanders do not appear fast enough to take the measure of the Claremont men, on yesterday's form, and the possibility of Merrill's men winning from Pomona does not loom up In striking fashion. the U. 8. C.

left end, was fast at getting under Ochoa's punts, and showed the that marked his play of former seasons. Weiman and Ochoa engaged In a punting battle during the last half with honors even, although the Occidentals might have gained to advantage by further resort to the kicking game, considering; the U. 8. C. tendency to fumble.

Hagerman and Merrill were speedy following Welman's punts, and when Hodge entered the game he also displayed clever ability in downing the man receiving the kick. Story of the First Half Ochoa. kicked off out of bounds and the ball was brought back. Ochoa kicked to Clark and the full back cume back for five yards. Occidental carried the ball to the forty-yard line on bucks by.

Merrill, Weiman and Clark, and B.C. took leather on a fumble. U. B. C.

brought the ball to Occidental's fifteen-yard Una and Merrill's men held for downs. Weiman tried to OCCIDENTAL WINS FROM ITS OLD GRIDIRON RIVAL, U. S. C. punt and the attempt was blocked, U.

S. C. falling on the ball. U. S.

lost on downs and Weiman punted to Best who was tackled In hia tracks by A. Merrill. Burlck and Ochoa made two yards and Ochoa kicked thirty yards. B. Merrill made two yards and a quarter back, run waa stopped by Westover, who broke through the line.

U. S. C. secured the ball on a.fum-[ ble, and after a gain of twenty yards Ochoa punted to Occidental's twentyfive yard line, Occidental fumbling the kick. U.

S. C. made five yards on a double pass, Ochoa slipping the ball to Halgler. Ochoa was unable to gain around A. Merrill, and another futile I try by Halgler gave the ball to Occl- dental on her seven-yard line.

Weiman pent a long punt that, with a roll on the ground, was good for fifty-five yards, and Best was downed in his tracks. Ochoa made six yards through center and a moment later had his punt blocked by B. Merrill, I Occidental securing the ball. The! moat spectacular run of the day came off when A. Merrill, on split play, went around U.

S. C. left end for a thirty- yard spurt, bringing the ball to university six-yard line. B. Merrill failed to gain, but Clark went over the line on the next play.

Hagerman missed goal and the score stood 5 to 0. The remainder of the half witnessed innumerable fumbles for either side, and the whistle blew with the ball in the center of the field. Second Half Hagerman kicked to the twenty- 1 yard line and U. S. C.

fumbled the punt, A. Merrill securing the ball out of bounds. Shute. the university right end, was obliged to leave the field, i Occidental began an onward march for the goal and did not stop until Clark went over for the second touch- down. A.

Merrill missed goal and the score stood 10 to 0. White took Bu- rick's place. Hagerman kicked to Ochoa. White went through the Occidental right wing for six yards, and the university men began a series of consistent bucks that netted thirty yards, Ochoa finally kicking to A. Merrill, who was stopped by Elliott.

Occidental fumbled again, U. S. C. repeating the trick. Occidental met with the strongest defense offered during the game, and Weiman kicked to Best, who fell before a hard tackle of Hodge.

"White and Halgler made sixteen yards off Occidental's left wing and Ochoa punted to Hodge, who returned five yards. Hodge kicked to Best, who fumbled. The remainder of the game was succession of fumbles, and brilliant tackles with both sides playing even, Several substitutes were put In by Holmes, and U. S. C.

resorted to the kicking game again, the players run- 1 nlng up and down the field beneath I the whirlers of Ochoa and Weiman. The game ended with the ball on U. I S. forty-yard line. The line-up: OCCIDENTAL.

Objects to College Yell Because "hell" is used to rhyme with "yell" in the Michigan eleven war cry, I strenuous objections have been made and the order has gone forth to mate the word. If the order should become general and the elimination ap- I ply to football generally what a dull game It would be. Physical Culture Club Prof. Frank S. Lewis, who trained Jack Twin Sullivan for his fight with Tommy Burns last month has completed ararngements for opening a physical culture club next month.

I Lewis expects to open his club rooms before the Christmas holidays in a down town location and has fifty members already assured. Walcott Loses Title? i It Is reported that when the Lewis fight was stopped by the Detroit officers the scrappers repaired to a i barn a short distance from the fight i club, but Walcott refused to fight I there and Eddie Ryan, the referee, i awarded the battle and welterweight 1 championship to Lewis by default. And thereby another title may have become befuddled. All After Fltz Since Grandpa Fltzslmmons arose from his pugilistic grave and rattled his dry bones, all the "dead" ones and "live" ones who are able to raise their arms In fighting pose are seeking matches and advertising at the expense of the sun-crowned spook. Fltz insists that he is the liveliest hasbeen In the business and Is working his Jaws over; time telling the public what he Intends doing to Jack O'Brien.

Whalen Wants Car Fare Jimmy "Whalen of the Seals, who was sold to the New York Nationals, Is kicking on the terms. He Is satisfied with the salary question, but avers that he will not budge an inch toward the I metropolis of the western hemisphere I until the genial Clark Griffith comes across with a round-trip ticket between 'Frisco and New York. Griffith turned down Jimmy's appjlcatlon for a oneway ticket and now Whalen insists upon a round-trip punch-out. GARDNER MAY FIGHT HERRERA Should Negotiations for Another Battle With Hanlon Fall, McCarey May Match These Two Jimmy Gardner, who fights Mike Twin Sullivan at 'Frisco November 24, may be seen In the local arena within a few weeks. He telegraphed his desire to meet the winner of the Hanlon- Herrera battle in Los Angeles during December and if negotiations for a return match between these two fail, Gardner may be substituted.

Herrera is staying in Los Angeles to make terms with any of the lightweights who have a hankering for a mill with him and while he prefers to Rettle the draw with Hanlon he has authorized McCarey to make a match for him with any others who may bo eligible and agreeable. Both these battlers are In condition and would require but a short time for final preparations for a scrap, and after November 24 Gardner will be free to go on with Herrera. This would be an attractive card end would be one of the best attractions possible for McCarey to offer the local fight fans. Gardner is ambitious to get on with Nelson, but Billy Nolan has announced that Nelson will not fight again before spring. It Is probable that the winner of the Gardner-Herrera battle would be given preference on Nelson's docket, as Nolan has promised Gardner first whack at Brltt's conquerer.

BROWN EASY FOR YALE TEAM Old Eli Maintains Its Clear Record for Keeping Opponents From Scoring By Associated Press. NEW HAVEN, Nov. In a game full of sensational play, Yale defeated Brown university today by the score of to 0. Not until well through the second half did the Yale supporters feel certain that Brown would not score a touchdown and early In the game they even had quaking lest the visitors turn the tablos and win out, because of the strength the visitors showed In rushing the ball. Along in the second half, when Yale had the game well In hand, a mlsplay gave the watchful Brown players their opportunity to make a supreme effort to cross the goal a feat that no team him accomplished this year.

Yale's rush line waa steadily pushed back, but with diminishing power until under the shadow of the goal. They sent back three successive charges armed at center and took the ball on down on the elght-yara line. PLUCKY ARIZONA IS OVERWHELMED POMONA VICTORIOUS BY SCORE OF 41 TO 5 I Coach Noble's Men Play In Good Form and Swamp Unbeaten Eleven From the Sagebrush Territory Fighting every Inch of the way, smashing through line bucks and ripping up end runs with the courage born of desperation, the gallant eleven from the University of Arizona went slowly down to defeat at Fiesta park yesterday afternoon, while the boys from Pomona tore up their interference, overrode their line, outplayed, outgeneraled and everything but outgamed them. The final score was 41 to 6. It was the fight of the raw, willing material against the well trained and finished article, and it was pitiful to see the strangers playing with every effort In them and yet slowly but surely going down to defeat.

Many games have been played in Los Angeles during the past score years any many gallant stands have been made, but nothing In the history of western football can compare to the quiet, desperate courage with which the territory lads faced their first overwhelming defeat of the season yesterday afternoon, faced it with the grace of the hero and the desperation of the fiend and played football for its true worth down to the last minute. Arizona Is Game Pomona won but the game hal hardly been called before cv.cry man of the blue and white cheered and cheered again for their game opponents. That was simply the courtesy of the field, and Arizona returned the compliment, but nfter the Pomona men had reached their hotel they again gathered together and sent forth a last great cheer for the opposing players. The game was marked by brilliant individual work throughout. Both teams played open football, giving either side a chance to send a man through the line for a score, and many spectacular runs resulted.

Time after time Davidson, the big blonde athlete from the sage brush state, broke through the Pomona line, sending his tacklers right and left, only to be downed by the speedy Wharton who guarded the back field. But Pomona was In fine trim and would not be denied. Moorman. Kepner, Wharton, Balrd, Spurgeon and Chlsholm for the Claremont eleven gave exhibitions of championship football, and unless the Occidental eleven is prepared to play the finished article of football next Saturday they have a beating in store for them that will be a subject of sore distress throughout the history of their gridiron experiences. Pomona will have practically the same line-up when the game with Occidental is called next Saturday, and the southwest has failed to find a team this year to defeat the Claremont eleven.

Spurgeon Makes Touchdown The first score of the game yesterday was made by Pomona. After five minutes' of play, Spurgeon, the big right half back, received the ball on Arizona's 35-yard line and bucked his way straight through the opposing line. Like a flash he went forward. Down In the back field Melgrem, the nervy little quarter from Tucson awaited him. Melgrem crouched until he looked like a jack rabbit half hidden from view, while straight toward him lunged the long, greyhound from Claremont.

But Melgrem was plucky and dove fairly at the runner. Without ever ii break in his stride, Spurgeon cleared him and without Interference crossed the Arizona goal. Metcalf kicked an easy goal. Arizona Takes Brace Arizona took a brace and bucked the ball to the center of the field, Capt. Rathrauff, McDonald and Davidson do- Ing effective work, and then Davidson tucked the ball under his arm near the center of.

the field, crashed through the Pomona line, straight armed the back (leldmen and with a clear field made for the goal. The big man was too slow and Balrd of Pomona, clearing the scrimmage, swept down the field toward him and tackled him on the fiveyard line. Davidson was downed but McDonald carried the ball over on the next play. After that the Arizona ends gave out and Pomona sent play after play around for long gains. Toward the latter part of the game Pomona struck the same gait which aided them in holding the fierce rushes of the St.

Vincent team last Saturday, and with their backs playing in splendid style and their tuckles hurdling the Arizona Una for steady gain Pomona went over the opposing goal line for six more touchdowns. The game was marked throughout by the clean playing of both teams and C. Ruthrauff, Coach and Captain of the University of Arizona Team, 1 Which Was Defeated by Pomona 4 Arizona came through without a penalty, while a five-yard penalty for offside work was the only sentence drawn by the Claremont eleven. Twenty-five and thirty-minute halves were played and before the end of the second half both captains consented to have the game called. First Half Davidson for Arizona kicked off, sending the ball out of bounds.

The pigskin was brought back, and on the second try the ball went to Spurgeon, who returned it ten yards. Pomona tried two straight bucks at Arizona's line and failed at both. Then the Claremont lads fumbled and Arizona received the oval on Pomona's twenty-yard line. Twioe Arizona sent Davidson and Barthells against the Pomona llns. Both bucks fniled, and Davidson was sent back for a try at a place kick.

The kick failed and Wharton took the ball to the twenty-yard line and booted It forty yards to Davidson, who carried It back fifteen. By a series of line bucks Arizona advanced the ball fifteen yards, and then Pomona held and Davidson booted twenty yards. Pomona came back with ita line hurdling tactics, Balrd, Spurgeon and Chlsholm making consistent gains until a fumble gave the ball to Arizona on Pomona's fifty-yard line. Davidson hit through tackle for ten yeards, McDonald following with a hurdle of three more. Melgrem attempted a quarterback run but was thrown for a loss and on another attempts went back several yurds.

On the next play Balrd broke through the line and fell on the bull us Melgrem fumbled It. Kepner came buck for Pomona and went through tuckle on tackle formation for eight yurds. Spurgeon duplicated the feat over right tackle, and Chlsholm, on a fuke end buck, went around left tackle for three yards more. Runs for Touchdown The ball was snapped to Spurgeon on the llilrty-llvii-yarct line, and plunging through Arizona's left tackle the speedy back distanced his pursuers and crossed the line for the first touchdown, Metcalf kicked goal. Davidson kicked oft for Arizona, Bend- Ing the ball to the ten-yard line to Chlsholm, who returned the catch fifteen yards.

By steady work on the part of the hacks and tackles, Pomona carried the ball to Arizona's fourteenyard line, where it was fumbled and Woodell fell on it. On the next play Davidson circled Pomona's left end on a fake tackle buck and advanced the ball twenty yards. Arizona's backs bucked the ball to the center of the field, where Davidson hurdled the line, and breaking through the Pomona back field went fifty yards to Pomona's five-yard line, where he was tackled by Balrd. McDonald bucked the ball through Kepner on the next play for the first score and Davldboii missed a difficult goal. Score, 6-6.

Davidson kicked to Chlsholm, who returned the ball twenty yards. The Pomona backs, with splendid hurdle plays, carried the ball to the thirty-Hvo-yard line, where Buird went around end for thirty-three yards to Arizona twoyard line, and on the next play Chlsholm went over the line for the second score. Metcalf kicked a diliicult goal. The ball was In the possession of Arizona near the center of the field at the end of the first half. Score.

12-5. Second Half In the second half the Arizona ends were worked for steady gains and the Pomona men hit and hurdled the Him until an opening was found and then some back would dash through for a long run and a touchdown. Pomona took the kick off, sending the ball to Arizona's ten-yard line. Davidson advanced the ball twenty-five yards In three bucks and then the ball went to Pomona on the thtrty-flve-yard line on downs. Pomona, after two failures at the Arizona line, attempted to punt and Whurton sent the ball into the grandstand.

Davidson went three yards through right tackle and again the ball wu.) fumbled and Chisholm fell on it. Arizona won the pigskin buck on the next play when Wharton fumbled. Again Arizona fumbled and Pomona secured the ball on the Arizona thirty-yard line. Slowly tliu ball was bucked to the fiveyard line, where Moorman bucked It over' for the third score for Pomonn, Again Metcalf kicked goal. Score, 18-5.

PENN WINS FROM HARVARD Crimson Is Defeated In Fiercest Qrld. Iron Dattle Ever Played on Franklin Field By Associated PieHS. PHILADELPHIA, Nov. today defeated Harvard in one of the fiercest gridiron batles ever witnessed on Franklin field. The final score was 12 to 6.

Both elevens scored a touchdown and kicked goals In the first half and the Quaker eleven added a second touchdown In the second half. That there was 111-feeling between the players of the two elevens was made apparent easily in the first half when Parker, the Crimson center, was disqualified for slugging and again in the second half when Sheble was sent to the club house for a like offense. Both touchdowns in the first half were due to luck. The third touchdown was made on hard, clean football. Pennsylvania got the ball on Harvard's forty-flve-yard line on an exchange of kicks and pushed It over for the final touchdown by straight line plunging.

Tory kicked the goal. In the first half Harvard completely outplayed Pennsylvania and gained ground almost at will, while in the second half the Crimson players made only one first down. Both their offense and defense weakened perceptibly as the game progressed while Pennsylvania's attack and defense improved fifty per cent. The particular star was little Levine, Pennsylvania's left end. He followed the ball perfectly and time and time again broke up Harvard's Interference before the play had gone six feet.

Six times during the game ha recovered the ball after some member of his team had fumbled. Three times during the game he was laid out because of his fierce tackling, but he always resumed play after receiving the sponge bath. HART AND WILLE MATCHED? New York Dispatch Bays They Will Fight for Heavyweight Champion. ship in Los Angeles Dispatches from New York give out the Information that Marvelous Hart and John Wllle, the Chicago heavyweight, have been matched to fight for the championship before the Pacific Athletic club of this city. That the dispatch Is based upon rumor is evident in the fact that Tom McCarey.

director of all things connected with the Pacific, knows nothing of the match and has not given permission for the boui, although he would not be averse to staging the performance. McCarey has a hunch that Hart will be seen in or about Los Angeles before the Christmas holidays and he has been Indulging the hope that Hart will consent to do some of his championship stunts before the local club before he returns east. There is one certainty regarding Hart. He will either deny the utterance of the published accusations made against Jefferles when 'he comes to California or he will be given an opportunity of giving up the presented title he now holds by right of bestowal of the retiring and unbeaten champion of all champions. Should Hart come to the coast and deny the reported Interview with him, in which he accuses Jeffries of framing up a misdeal on him at Reno, It is probable that Big Jim will let him go in peace.

Otherwise, there Is a strong probability that Jeff will force him to scrap for the belt and of course the result is Inevitable. BAD LUCK BEATS WEST POINT Attempt to Kick Goal Fails by Six Inches and Carlisle Wins Thereby By Associated Press. WEST POINT, N. Nov. to kick a goal caused West Point to lose today to the Carlisle Indian eleven.

The score was 6 to 5 In the Indians' favor, and the goal, which would have tied the score, was missed by less than six Inches. Prince Louis of Batetnberg was a spectator of the game. -He watched It Intently throughout, seldom taking his gazo off the play. Two entirely different types of football players were put against each other, the Indians- using trick plays throughout the game and the army eleven relying on its superior physical strength to crush its way to the goal lines. President McCurdy once wrote a poem on "Oet thee behind me, Satan." Evidently Satan and then pushed hard.
