Playing a strong line of football and Completely outclassing their lighter jpponents, the U. S. C. freshman team lefeated the Santa Ana High School fcleven 28 to 0. The game was played before the Stanford-U. S. C. battle, Saturday, and was in every way rar'hy of the crowd present. Thrills irere provided by Dolley, Lawson and Taylor of the backfield, while Milton flayed his usual steady game at full, (n the line Farrow, Cummings and i'reemen were especially strong, and the team, as a whole, demonstrated that it is one of the best peagreen out-its on the coast.
Victories Monotonous The only trouble with the freshmen iis that they are too good—though Cliff [Herd may raise his voice in disagreement. They have played three games land in no case have they been in great [danger of being scored on, the strong [line and speedy backfield taking care
I	of ambitious opponents with promptness and vigor.
Dolley Goes 85 Yards The quarters in the frosh game J were only 10 minutes in length, and one slipped by before the peagreeners scored. Santa Ana played a good game, though outclassed in weight and ability, and kept the quarter fairly even by brilliant playing on the part of Coffman and Westgate. In the second quarter the scoring started when Chet Dolley grabbed a forward pass by Santa Ana and ran almost the full length of the field to a touchdown, going thirty-five yards through Santa Ana and traveling the remaining fifty without company. Good interference was an invaiuable aid to the former Long Beach star’s miniature marathon. Milton kicked the goal.
Taylor and Cummings Score Straight football brought the ball near the last line a second time, and on this occasion Thatcher Taylor carried it over, Milton converted, making the score 14 to 0. Shortly afterward their ability to follow the ball was demonstrated by Herd’s youngsters. Cox, Santa Ana fullback, was about to kick, when Von Mohr clambered over the visitors’ line, arriving in time to block the punt, which he did. Cummings seized the pigskin and tore up the field for 40 yards, bringing the total score to 20. Milton kicked a moment later, and the half ended.
One In the Fourth Quarters were shortened to eight minutes in the last half. The ball was carried back and forth without a score during the third quarter, but in the final stage of play the frosh worked the ball up the field and scored six when Dolley made a forward to San-S^r, who was playing right end. John Hawkins converted, bringing the final frosh score to 28, while Santa Ana was held without a point.

ASSOCIATION LEADERS THANK STUDENTS FOR
T
Both Campaigns Are Successful; Students Gave Very Liberally
Both the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. campaigns went above their budget goal. Totals have not all been checked up as yet, but the latest check shows that of the Y. M. C. A. to be a little better than $1500, or $300 in excess of the amount asked for. The Y. W. C. A. reports a little over $1300, or $300 beyond their goal.
No prolonged solicitation in the campaign was necessary; those who gave did so freely and with a fine spirit. “The promoters did not go as far as they could have done had it been necessary,” commented Howard Butterfield, president of the Y. M. C. A. “The results of the campaign show that the student body as a whole has faith in the work of the two Christian organizations.
“The students gave willingly because they know what the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. are doing for U. S. C. There was a goodly number of students who did hot feel able to give for various reasons. These students are entitled to the privileges of the Association just as much as the others. They are asked to call upon either of them any time they can be served.
“The success of both campaigns enables the organizations to carry out their plans in full. From the interest which the students manifested, the ‘Y’s’ will have a banner year.”
Miss Marion Curtis and Howard Butterfield wish to thank the students and faculty who gave bo gladly to the campaign fund. “To the members of the student body who assisted so cheerfully, * the success of the campaign must be credited,” continued Butterfield. “The first step toward a big year in the two Christian Associations has been taken. Get behind the two ‘Y’s\ They are worth while.”
CHARLIE DEAN BACK IN LINE-UP SOON
Frosh Objects To Bleacher Combers
By H. F. Brown
We all went to the game Saturday, and we all enjoyed it more or less. That is, some more, others less—I less. And it all came about this way.
Many were those who fondly but suddenly parted with cherished objects which till then were their very own. After the first half a flying squad of boys oozed under the bleachers, no one knows how, and what they didn't pick up and make off with wasn’t to be picked up.
One lady, in the excitement of the game, jumped up, and when she sat down her purse had disappeared.
Not Turned In
Another lady dropped a fur stole, but a careful search over all the ground beneath the bleachers indicated that it wasn’t there. Mr. Hughes says no lost articles have been returned to the Lost and Found.
And as for me, just before the end of the last quarter, I dropped my cap. Before I could clamber down to get it, a bleacher scourer had grabbed it up, and was dusting it off. I called to him to toss it up and that it was mine. By way of answer he carefully adjusted it to his head and, grinning up at me, asked:
“Is it yours?”
And he scampered on under the ^’eachers. I went down after him, but he had vanished.
Now, it is no joke to lose a cap with caps costing $1.98 and up and up—
So I do protest against letting bleacher combers in at any period of the game, for besides grabbing valuables, it is said that so many silk stockings are ruinous to their eyes.
Let us protect their sight by keeping them out!
F
Will Appear on U. S. C. Campus Within a Month’s Time
Charley Dean, hero of U. S. C., idol of the kid fans of Bovard Field, and one of the greatest backfield men in the United States, will be in tip-top shape for the Oregon game Thanksgiving.
Dean was one of the shining satelites of Saturday’s game until he injured himself making a tackle on the sidelines. It was thought at first that his leg was broken, but ! an X-ray showed only a strained tendon. The doctors have reported that he can be in uniform inside of two weeks and that he will be as good or better than ever for his battle with Oregon.
Great rejoicing reigns on the Trojan campus, for when it comes to half backs Charley Dean is all of them plus.
Wanted
At Woman’s Hall, 903 West 35th street—four table boarders.
Wampus, that snarling, growling campus cat, in new glory, with a revamped staff, and some up-to-date ideas, will come bursting forth on the campus within a month.
Students who possess any alleged humor are encquraged to become kittens. Write your alleged humor in the best possible Spencerian or Underwood style, steal gently up to Al Wesson, Wendell Neeley or Don Ashbaugh and they will relieve you of the burden of worry. Wesson may be found at the Phi Alpha house or in the offices on the second floor of the Journalism building. Neeley can be discovered at the Sigma Chi house. Ashbaugh will be found at the Trojan office or the Delta Beta Tau house. Wendell Neeley will edit the comedy sheet this year, with Al Wesson as associate editor. The latter will have charge of the literary contributions and be assisted by ABbbaugh.
Humorous stories, jokes, drawings and anything purporting to tickle the funnybone of the U. S. C student will be received with grateful arms. The Wampus inviteB the student body to pass In their contributions.
OFFICE NOTICE Registration cards must be turned in to the office immediately. At the end of this week cancellat'on notices will be sent to the classes of all students with late cards, and it will cost $2 to re-register.

SONS OF PALO ALTO GET ANNUAL DRUBBING ATHANDS OF SO. CALIF.
Dean and Leadingham Find Holes in Card Line Without Trouble Until Former Is Injured. Rest of the Team Plays Great Game. Stanford Individual and Ragged.
By Carl
They came, they saw, they conquered not.
Such, no doubt, would be Julius Caesar’s report of the Stanford gridiron crew had he been at Bovard Field Saturday instead of having been unfortunately used as a super-pin cushion some two thousand years ago.
Hailed by their supporters as conquering heros when they trotted out on the field of battle, clad in crimson uniforms, the mighty Stanford eleven was defeated for the second consecutive time by Coach Henderson’s group of Trojans, after an hour of fast and exciting play. When the final whistle blew the Cardinals had exactly as many touchdowns as when the game started .while U. S. C. had been improving the time by scoring twice— once on a touchdown and once on a field goal.
Trojan Goal Not Threatened
The final score was 10 to 0, and at no time during the game was the Trojan goal seriously theratened. Once or twice, it is true, the Cardinals succeeded in working up to the 25-yard line, but their energy always fizzled out in the face of the resistance they encountered and frrther advances were checked, the ball going to U. S. C. The next thing on the program was to slip the ball to Long John Leadingham, who kicked back into Stanford territory and thus sent the Card hopes glimmering. This scene was enacted more than once, and every time Leadingham kicked he knocked the visitors’ hopes higher than the spirals which he booted so carefully and effectively.
Kicking Featured Game
From one end of the game to the other, and from one end of the field to the other, kicking was the feature of the afternoon. Even in the first quarter before any scoring had been done, half a dozen puntB had been exchanged between Leadingham and Wilcox, with the former having the better of things. To begin at the beginning, Evans kicked off over the Stanford line, and the ball was brought out to the 20-yard line. Schlaudeman, Cardinal left half, broke through for 15 years. Stanford then fumbled, and Jimmy Smith got the ball. A moment later Dean fumbled and Schlaudeman recovered for the Cards to the great joy of 'he Stanford rooters, whose rejoicing was doomed to be short lived. With the bail with Stanford and with 35 yards to go, the stands were settling down in expectation of a score, when Leo Calland spilled the Cardinal beans by falling on the ball, which Stanford conveniently fumbled.
Leadingham Kicks a Mile
At this point Long John apparently tired of the business of passing the pigskin around on a platter for both teams to fondle, and so he booted the ball a mile up the field. The Stanford runner was nailed in his tracks on the 5-yard line, and Wilcox punted out on the 30-yard line. A hasty for mation followed, and Leadingham swung around Stanford’s left end for 15 yards, taking the ball again for five before the notherners knew what had happened. Dean made a yard, and then John t*'ok the ball on a criss-cross and parked it behind the line for six points. Evans said something about “come seven," and his prayer was answered wheu he dropped the ball be-
Farman
tween the posts for the additional unit.
Another Fumble Stanford chose to receive the kick-off, and Evans booted it to the 10-yard line, where Jimmy Smith stood the unfortunate Cardinal runner on his pompadour. No gain was n:a0e at center, but Tiny Townsend hit th& man carrying the ball so hard that he fumbled and U. S. C. recovered. A line plunge and a forward failed to gain much territory, and the whistle called the end of the quarter as Evans was preparing to execute a place kick from the 25-yard line.
Three Points In 8econd This kick was postponed a minute and 20 seconds, but was, nevertheless, inevitable, and Evans started the second quarter with true Trojan efficiency by gaining the three peints de-Bired. Discouraging as this total was for the red and white to overcome, they tried hard during the rest of the quarter and, at times, broke through for sensational gains, which were offset by the stiffening of the Trojan line before the danger point was reached. For U. S. C., Dean, Leadingham and Jimmy Smith were the particular stars. Charlie ran interference, bucked the line, and tackled ambitious CardinalB with ease and efficiency, playing like the all-American material that he is. Leadingham was right on the job when a gain was needed, and his kicking was one of the features of the quarter. Not once did he meet the demand for a kick with an Inferior brand of punting, but always booted carefully and for a long distance.
Smith Strong at End Those who had not seen Jimmy Smith in action before found out why he was all-State end last season. He was down the field on most of Leadlng-ham’s kicks ln time to throw the runner so hard that the unfortunate player bounced a foot off the ground and sometimes fumbled. If Smith keeps up the style of play he used Saturday, southern scribes will not need to look far for all-State right end this year. Greene at left end also played a strong aggressive game. The half ended with the ball in Stanford’s possession with 40 yardB to go.
Dean Hurt In Third Early In the third quarter Leadingham staged a beautiful play. He received the ball and was about to kick when three Cardinals arrived on the spot to shake hands with him. John paused long enough to say what he thought about it and then dodged through the line for 15 yards before he was tackled, bringing every spectator to his feet in the excitement of the moment.
This quarter saw Charlie Dean’s ankle so badly hurt that he was carried from the field. A Stanford end run netted seven yards before Kincaid tackled his man just as Dean arrived on the scene of action. Wishing to avoid getting tangled up with the fallen men, Charlie leaped over them and struck tbe ground on his left ankle .tearing the ligaments badly.
Carried From Field Though protesting aguinst it, Dean was carried from the field to the training quarters, Lockett taking his place, This loss, combined with that of Evans, whose shoulder was hurt, probably resulted in one less Trojau score, for ln the last part of the third quarter Leadingham intercepted a forward
