TROJAN ‘FR0SH’ OUTPLAY NAVAL RESERVES; 13-2
Lack of Training Largely Responsible For Defeat of Sailor Boys
BOB ZIMMERMAN STARS
Naval Reserves’ Only Score Comes in Final Quarter On,a Safety
The football eleven representing Uncle Sam’s sea fighters of the naval training station at San Pedro met defeat here Wednesday afternoon at the hands of the University freshmen, by a score of 13-2.
The game was a notable exception to the usual knock-down, drag-out type so often met with when the school plays outsiders. The sailors were most gentlemanly and courteous, besides being good players. That the government men did not win is laid to a lack of coaching, 'for they were all old hands at the game. Big, smiling “Chuch” De Coudres of California played at tackle, King of Pomona at end, and Chambers of Whittier at half-back. Captain McLaughlin was a rare fighter. “Pat” Maguire, former L. A. high school halfback and a member of last year’s California varsity team, did some wonderful kicking. All of his kicks carried the pigskin for a good fifty yards. This being the naval reserves first real game, more can be expected of them before the end of the season.
All of the “frosh” played well after they once got started. Lucas carried the ball for repeated successful end runs. Dean in his line plunges was like a streak of lightning. Jimmie Woodward proved himself to be an able pass grabber, while Blakeslee looked good in his ability to pick holes in the line.
The playing of Bob Zimmerman at end for the San Pedro boys was a feature. Bob was a University student last year.
The first quarter the only score made was a touchdown by Lucas. Evans missed the goal. In the final quarter Beale took the pigskin over for another touch-down, and this time Evans kicked the goal. The only score made by the sailors was in the fourth quarter, when the men behind the guns secured two tallys on a safety. They blocked a kick and one of the frosh fell on the ball behind the line. This brought the final score to 13-2.
Spunky Sophs Seek Revenge
The following statement is given out by the wrathful sophomore girls:
“Be it known that the soph girls’ basket ball team is still on the map!!
“This is in spite of the recent proclamation of our honorable and able ‘frosh’ opponents. As for the ‘two wallopings,’ wait till we get our second wind.
“Come and see the freshman girls’ balloons full of pep get punctured next Wednesday, November 21, when the real game comes off.”
The sophomore line-up is:
Hortense Hannum, jumping center; Elizabeth Wahl, side center; Laura Niemeyer, captain, forward; Pay Levering, forward; Verna Beam, guard; Helen Frew, gua.d.

More Girls Are Asked to Take Charge of Red Cross Room During Their Spare Hours
One of the latest acquisiitons to the University is the building for the
A.	W. S. Red Cross headquarters, located on the corner of Thirty-fifth place and University avenue.
The building is for the benefit of the girls, who will give an hour or so for Red Cross work, knitting, mak ing garments, etc. The girls who have signed up for different kinds of Red Cross work can go there for Instruction and materials.
This building is shared with the Woman’s Club of the University. They have furnished the room, help buy the supplies and share expenses.
It is open every day, except Saturday, from nine a. m. until five o’clock p. m. Some one is on duty practically every period in the day to take charge of materials and finished work. There are, however, nine hours which have not been filled as yet, and an urgent appeal is made the girls to sign up for this work in the Y. W. office.
Volunteers are wanted to make posters and cards with directions and information upon them, to report to Mrs. Maryette Mackey, dean of women.
There is a very definite way that the University men can help. About a half dozen contribution boxes are wanted. These are to be placed in the Red Cross room and also in the halls. Mrs. Mackey will give the men instructions for the making of these boxes if they will see her.
The girls are asked to save all old kid gloves and tops of soft leather shoes to put them in these Red Cross salvage boxes. These pieces of old leather are used to make jackets for aviators and ambulance drivers.
Universal Film Company Filins Pretty Co-eds Learning Secrets of War Bread
PHARMACY SENIORS
WIN FROM JUNIORS
“Mrs. Spencer will demonstrate the making of potato war-bread today at 3 o’clock. All Interested are invited,” read the enticing sign on the cafeteria black-board yesterday. Mrs. Spencer did not mention that the Universal film company was going to have Its camera-man around to catch the fair chefs and the feminine of chefs. At any rate, the idea was spread abroad and a delightful cast of future housewives and film queens were present. There was _ also a surprising number of men around. Mrs. Spencer had everything ready before hand, and proceeded with the demonstration.
Here is the recipe for yeast and potato bread: One-half cup milk and water, one tablespoon sugar, four tablespoons fat, one and one-half teaspoon salt, one-half yeast cake, softened in one-fourth cup water; four cups boiled mashed potatoes, six cups flour. Combine ingredients. Mix and knead. Let rise until double in bulk, knead again and put in bread pans; bake one hour. This makes two loaves.
Much fun was enjoyed by the girls as they attempted to acquire all the loose knowledge about the kitchen, and not withstanding their unskilled assistance, Mrs. Spencer succeeded in turning out a splendid batch of war-bread. She cut two loaves and passed the bread around, to the secret satisfaction of the students who had forgotten to eat lunch.
Yesterday Mrs. Spencer received a letter of approvatlon from Mrs. S. Maus Purple, 1840 Middleton Place, who is a member of the food administration board. Mrs. Purple expressed herself as very successful with the war-bread recipes which Mrs. Spencer had given to the Express and Times.
The annual football game between the two upper classes of the College of Pharmacy, held on Bovard field Wednesday morning, resulted in the seniors winning with a score of 33-7. The juniors showed ragged form In obeying signals while their passes frequently worked to the advantage of the seniors. Captain Spear commanded the juniors and Captain Robbins led the seniors.
A good crowd of near-druggists turned out to witness the spectacle, and as a result, not much school was held, down at the “seat of learning.”

TROJAN COACH LEADS TEAM IN RAID ON UTES
University of Utah Has Good Team According To Latest Reports
NO FROSH TO PLAY
Trojans Eager To Wipe Away Sting of Previous Years’ Defeat
MARE MO TEAM L MEET 0. S. C.
The Mare Island Marines are coming down to play a little game of football with U. S. C. The Marines are looked upon as having the strongest squad of eleven, on the Pacific coast, and have scored way ahead of every team they have played, yet. They have played some big games, and have not had a single goal kicked, on them. They played California, and won with a score of 27-0; Mary’s College, with 28-0; a picked team from Camp Lewis, with 12-0, and others. Now what are you going to do with a team like that, unless you “kick ’em?" The game with the Marines is scheduled for November 24th. According to J. Paul Beale, president of the freshman class, the U. S. C. team will be composed mostly of freshmen, altho a few varsity men may be allowed to represent the school. That, Is only one way of putting it however. The real reason is that the California game, comes off November 29th, and Coach Cromwell wants the varsity team fresh and in trim for it. Its going to be a hard game and a tight pull for little old U. 8. C. for the Marines coming from salt-water as they do, are likely to be “fresh."
Led by Coach "Dean Cromwell and Manager Cliff Henderson, eighteen football players of U. S. C.’s varsity left the Salt Lake station last night bound for the Utah capital, where on Saturday afternoon they are to meet the University of Utah in one of the hardest games of the year.
The Utes are reported to have a strong aggregation this season, in spite of the fact that they were hit very hard by the draft and enlistments. Coach Norgren has built up a very strong team around the five veterans who reported to him at the beginning of the year.
The Trojans have clashed with Utah for the past two years, and on each occasion the men from the Mor-man city have come out of the fray victorious. In 1915 they barely nosed out Coach Glaze’s men, while last year they defeated the Cardinal and Gold 27 to 12. This year’s varsity has determined to give the foreigners a beating that will make up for their disrespect for Trojan goal lines of former years.
Cromwell will be forced to use only varsity men in tomorrow’s game, as there is an anti-freshman agreement between the two universities. The Californians will also be handicapped by Malette’s injured right paw, as this will hinder the little captain in his forward passing.
The Trojan mentor has been working his men to the limit this week. In between halves of the frosh-sallor game Wednesday the stripes of the varsity could be seen flitting hither and thither as the men ran through their signals. Cromwell'kept them working long after the sun had gone down, and only stopped when it became too dark to see the ball.
The S. C. line from left to right will consist of Taylor, De Armond, Dahl-gren, Hester, Knickrehm, McMillan and Hamilton. Malette at quarter, Miller at left half and Hunter, fullback, wi|l compose three-fourthB of the back-fleid. Before leaving, the coach had not decided who he would put in at right half. The reserves will be Clark, Butterfield, Weiss, Chesnut, Campbell and JoBlin.
The varsity players are travelling to Utah in a special car, and will have a box of canned music to relieve the monotony of the Journey,
If the Trojans defeat their old rivals, it Is expected that a big celebration will be held on the campus on their return next Monday.
“I hope the fallows will realize tho importance of the game and go into it as they did against the soldiers last week, and not let the magnitude of the game with the Marines overshadow it,” was Cromwell’s parting word.
