Olympic Club Scores To Beat Cards At Palo Alto Field Goal by Campbell Near End of Game Makes 0.

C. Victory Secure, 9 to 0. NEVERS STANFORD STAR Inexperienced Line Falls Before Winged '0' Attack; Fumbles Help S.F. Club. STANFORD UNIVERSITY STADIUM, September 26.

Playing savagely but ineffectively against a fundamentally Warner's Stanford Cardinals superior team, Coach Glen took a 9 to 0 beating from the Olympic Club in thcopening game of the 192! football season here. Twelve thousand persons witnessed the game. While admitted to be a bitter pill for Stanford rooters. It was a healthy and much-needed lesson for a dozen or so red-shirted football players, and an Invaluable1 Indicator for Coach Warner. Stanford was swept off Its feet In the first ten minutes of play by the superior team work of the experienced Olympians.

The raw lino material with which Warner had to build a football machine this year was easily up-fcet by the finely organized offensive. Partially recovering, Stanford waged a heroic but futile battle for the last three quarters of the frame and it was not until Pat Campbell kicked a field goal In the last three minutes of play that Stanford conceded the Olympian rlctory. For the major part of the game the two teams battled evenly in the middle of the fled, Stanford pitting the strength of Nevers Igainst the backfield of veteran tollege playes. The Winged players were quick to take advantage of. a fumble on the play after the kick-off by Mike Murphy, former Berkeley High lad, who played on the freshman team last season.

Murphy's fumble was recovered by Harrison on Stanford's. 35-yard line and the San Francisco team started a driving offensive at the Cardinal's Inexperienced Mne. "MOOSE" FAWKE SCORES. Bucks by Jack Patrick, giant club fullback, "and Scotchy Camp-Jbell, who captained Stanford two years ago, placed the ball on the Card's 20-yard line for A first down. Norman Cleaveland, another former Stanford player advanced the ball 7 yards through tackle, but the Olympians were forced to resort to a pass on the last down.

Campbell received the toss and was downed on the 3-yard line. On the next play Fawke plunged through left guard for a touchdown. Campbell failed to kick goal, but the margin of six points was too great for the Immature Stanford team to overcome, although Warner's athletes fought valiantly to the end. SCORES FIELD GOAI. The Olympic offense was again headed for the Cardinal line three minutes before the game ended, but when the forward defense stiffened at the 20-yard line, Campbell dropped back and scored a field goal on a place kick to make the victory even more certain.

Although the sowing of the Cards was a disappointment and somewhat a surprise, Warner's team was not without Its stars. Captain Ernie Nevers played an ex-centionallv strong defensive game. and time and again saved his team from being scored upon by his (Continued on Page 2-D.)

Look for him to be back in the game in HAN i a ew wee8 displaying the same old fight. It a great relief to the thousands who witnessed the game to know that the game little fighter wasn't counted out for the season. In the first quarter Andy Smith dusted off last year's com the ruck of players cleared away he lay inert, and while stretcher bearers bore him from the field the vast throng of Cali fornia supporters stood is hushed grief. A severely wrenched back, with a possibility that some of the musclos may be torn- that was the verdict of the university surgeons after X-rays had been taken. The.

injuries will keep him from the game tor several weeks at least, and his loss will be keenly felt. Twenty-seven howling fans witnessed the opening game of the year. Imlay Worthy Successor To Great Babe HorrelJ. Imlay is a leader, a worthy successor to the great "Babe" Horrell. last season's All-American skipper.

He proved that yesterday in the period and a half that he was In the game. Lightening fast, he is as perfect a broken field runner as could be found. Always-in the thick of the play, breaking his way through, he showed to be a consistent ground gainer. He is going to be sadly missed, especially if he Is out of the Mary's game in three weeks. The Bronchos tried to emulate the Iron Horse yesterday, but they couldn' make the grade.

They showed all the pep and charge of the famous electric pony of White House fame, but like that pony they were kept solely in their own back yird. Only once did they get under way, and then for a few minutes In tHo third quarter it looked as though the highly touted Notre Dame shift was going to take them down the field to a touchdown California seemed slowed up as their lighter opponents danced around with a "Hip. Hip Hooray Hike!" and sped down the field lor fifty yards. Cock Snares a Pass to Save the Golden Bears. The ball was in California territory, and things looked dark for the Bears when Cock snared a pass from Cass.mova and saved the situation.

Santa Clara seemed to have expended all their offensive fight in that drive, and their failure to score seemed to take the heart out of them. From that time on their backs were to the wall, the Bruins constantly menacing their goal lino. And for a light team they put up a. splendid defense against their heavier more experienced opponents. Indeed, they mane me heroic ever seen in this ot the world, late in the.

The third quarter was a long beautiful kicking duel between Cassunova and Dixon, with the green-shirt outdistancing the Bear hooter on every exchange. But here ICallfornla gained a great advantage, as the speedy Bear ends were down under every one of Dixon's punts while they made good returns of Cassanova's efforts. The Broncho back was sending off beautiful kicks, high and long. Korty-five and fifty yards he sent the pigskin. And there was never danger of his hall being blocked so fust did he send them off.

NEW YORK, fcept. 2. Money favoring Pittsburgh to beat the Washington Senators in the world's series was the first to appear when two betting commissioners In the financial district announced they had $3000 to offer at even money on the National League champions. Some Washington money also made its first appearance looking for odds. One bet of $5000 was of fered ngainst $6000 that Buck Har ris would repeat his popular victory of last season.

The slight difference In the sentiment of the boys who are supposed to know why and how they bet, reflected the popular opinion mi the outcome of the series1 almost an even lift with the breaks to be considered. Practically all of the National Leagup munagcrsnnd players think Unit the Pirates will win and they all quote the samp reasons younger pla.vfrs, greater speed and stronger hitting. Anions the American League Connie Mack and Miller Muggins fool just as certain that Washington will win again, because it is a smarter and more exper-enced club. Some of the AniPi ican League backers who do not care to be 'tuotod. said another reason was the are a gamer ball club than the Pirates.

The idea that the Pirates lack courage is based upon the collapse that the club experienced in several recent years, when they blew up with a fine chance to win the pennant. There has bee no Indication of timldness in the actions of the cliib this year, howover. Won. Lost. I'ct.

"Tut" also reeled off a few yards in running back Cassanova's punts. Willi, who was substituted for Imlay, proved an adept pupil and was on the receiving end of a number of passes for substantial gains. Willi was a member of the Goof- squad last year and today marked his baptism under heavy fire.

With results of this kind Andy Smith can look forward to plenty of reserve strength. And with this thought in mind1 Andy trotted the entire reserve squad into action and took a careful survey of the, imperial on hand for future reference. Adam Walsh is to lx congratulated upon the fight shown by his team. Their playing, for the short time he has been in charge, was a revelation to their staunchest supporters. Al though the score of 28-0 was larger than the score of last year it is well to concede the superiority of the Bears this season.

The feature work of Santa Clara was done early in the game when they held the Bears for three downs inside their own two-yard line. This was made possible by the fierce charging of Gallagher and Chisholm. Both of these men played a star came throughout the (entire contest.
