BASEBALL BOXING SPORTS HENDERSON GLOOMY OVER TROJAN TEAM LOS ANGELES, Oct. 4.—With one hurdle successfully but not satisfactorily cleared, "Gloomy Gus" Henderson is busily engaged remedying defects in his U. S. C eleven that showed up last Saturday when the Trojans were held to an 18 to 7 score by Caltech in the initial collegiate grid game. Needless to say, the showing of the 1923 Trojans in their first appearance was far from pleasing to rooters and writers who have been counting upon the Henderson machine to be strongly in the race for Pacific Coast Conference football title honors this year. Henderson is anything but satisfied with the Trojans' showing and is working his squad hard that it might put up a much improved game against Coach Engene Nixon's Pomona Sagehens in the coliseum Saturday. Big Norman Anderson, star Trojan tackle, will not, in all probability, get in the game against the Sagehens Saturday because of a badly wrenched knee suffered against Caltech. With Anderson out of the lineup, the Trojan defense will be weakened greatly, out it is thought that Fay Thomas, a sophomore who showed up in great style at tackle during the latter part of the Caltech game, will be able to fill Anderson's place until the Nevada struggle rolls around. Ed Green, a substitute half-back, was the only other Trojan injured in Saturday's game. Greon had two of his front teeth broken off. Henderson's biggest problem this year is his backfield. The defensive strength of the Trojans this year is even greater than last year's but 1922 WOMEN'S GOLF CHAMP ELIMINATED RYE, N. Y., Oct. 4.—Miss Glennna Collett, of Providence, R. I., who held the national golf championship for women in 1922 and was favored to repeat this year, was eliminated today in her third round match of the championship tournament by Mrs. Clarence Vanderbeck of Philadelphia 2 and 1. The defeat of the Providence girl came as a stunning surprise to the large gallery. While Miss Collett was losing her championship, Miss Alexa Stirling the Atlanta girl moved into the semifinal round by defeating Mrs. Melvin Jones 7 and 5. 77at-66nuSHRDLU P YW F R AF FIRST GIRLS' TEAM BEGINS PRACTICE Coach Irane Jacques at Anaheim H.

This is her first year at Anabeim Hi. With Esther Hile as the other guard, Coach Jacques feels she has a combination that will be hard to beat. The Anaheim mentor is satisfied with the fact that she has the same winning chances this year as last. There are four letter players. The selection of jumping center is a task as also running center. Several girls have tried out. In a practice game this evening, Coach Jacques will place Miss Mae Requairth at jumping and Miss Irma Young, running.

Spor) NEW YORK, OCCUPY OF COMMITING ABSELL OF THE MAN IN QUESTION ADMITTED TODAY THAT TO STEP OUT WITH A PITCHED GAME OF THE TO HEAT THE Yankees OF THE WORLD'S SERIES NEXT. John is of the man he selects must on the particular day fact that the worthy is that to be sold on starting Sam Jones smartest pitcher in League today. "I have been given that Jones will pitch game for the Yankee." We will have to hareer to oppose that man old bird with a grit and fast. He knows up. Comparisons between Jones and another great curry whom we have know every time he has fared out of order. It, Morrison isn't new Jones is." As matters stand, they oppose Jones will of doubt until the season any one of four new Scott, Ryan or Watson selection were left to the Giant playerr. No most unanimously seced However, the player to do with the selec Trojan defense will be weakened greatly, out it is thought that Fay Thomas, a sophomore who showed up in great style at tackle during the latter part of the Caitech game, will be able to fill Anderson's place until the Nevada struggle rolls around. Ed Green, a substitute halfback, was the only other Trojan injured in Saturday's game. Groen had two of his front teeth broken off. Headerson's biggest problem this year is his backfield. The defensive strength of the Trojans this year is even greater than last year's, but a powerful offense is as wet missing. This perhaps was more pronounced against Caitech because the Trojans were using but three plays. However, even with the use of only three plays the regular varsity was able to score three touchdowns in the first half. The Trojans are almost certain to defeat Pomona Saturday as the Sagehen eleven is composed mostly of new men. However, reports from Claremont have it that Nixcn has built up a pretty formidable crew and hopes to give the Trojans a good rub in the coliseum dedication grid festivities. Bell and Merrit especially have been doing good work in serrinage, say the reports. The honor of playing the first game in the coliseum will go to the U.S.C. freshman eleven, which meets Santa Ana high in a preliminary tussel to the Pomona-U.S.C. game. RUTH CRACKS 39TH NEW YORK, Oct. 4.—Babe Ruth cracked out his 29th homer of the season in the first inning of today's game against Philadelphia here. Hasty was in the box for the Athletics. The problem of picking the forwards will be the most difficult. Evelyn Cordes is the only one who remains from last year. She is keeping up her practice for the same position this season. A forward, quick as a flash, is Rosie Labourdette. She has played on the lightweight team for three years and knows the ropes. She is several inches taller this year than last and is rated as one of the best in the county when it comes to shooting goals. Lydia Mohr, a freshman and new in the game, is putting in many periods practicing and it rated as a speedy player. Elizabeth Schwienfest deserves a position on the team and no doubt will add laulets to the school if placed on the squad. Active practice for the first team started this afternoon. Coach Jacques will soon place a second squad to act for the defense. The first practice scramble is dated with Garden Grove for Oct. 11. Santa Ana will meet the Mother Colony girls following Tuesday. Other outside competition will be arranged before the season starts.

Without committing himself on the identity of the man in question, John McGraw admitted today that he would have to step out with one of the best pitched games of the year in order to beat the Yankees in the first game of the world's series on Wednesday next. John is of the opinion that the man he selects must have everything on the particular day if only for the fact that the worthy Miller Huggins is that to be cold on the business of starting Sam Jones, possibly the smartest pitcher in the American League today. "I have been given to understand that Jones will pitch the opening game for the Yankees," quoth John. "We will have to have a great pitcher to oppose that man. He is a wise old bird with a great curve—slow and fast. He knows how to mix them up. Comparisons have been made between Jones and Johnny Morrison, another great curve ball pitcher, whom we have knocked out almost every time he has faced us. These are out of order. As I understand it, Morrison isn't nearly the pitcher Jones is." As matters stand, the Giant pitcher to oppose Jones will remain a matter of doubt until the series. It may be any one of four ones, namely: Nehf, Scott, Ryan or Watson, but if the selection were left to the judgment of the Giant playerr, Nehf would be almost unanimously selected. However, the players have as much to do with the selection of one. FREIGHTER AGAIN MAY BE IN PERIL LOS ANGELES, Oct. 4. The freighter, Dianno Dollar, of the Robert Dollar line, which was reported last night to be preceeding to being ravaged by a fire in her hold PROBE FINDING OF MURDERED RANCHER LOS ANGELES, Oct. 4. Details of the finding of the mutilated body of Rosario Mieciche, hatched murder victim, were to be recounted today before a coroner's jury when the in- As matters stand, the Giant pitcher to oppose Jones will remain a matter of doubt until the series. It may be any one of four men, namely: Nehf, Scott, Ryan or Watson, but if the selection were left to the judgment of the Giant player, Nehf would be almost unanimously selected. However, the players have as much to do with the selection of our Mr. McGraw's pitcher as the bat boy. "I won't make any decision until the night before the series," McGraw declared. "Perhaps even then I will not pick my man definitely. It may be Nehf or anyone who happens to look good to me. I will say this for Nehf. He has been improving with every appearance lately." Baseball men in general believe McGraw could look fatter and do worse. Nehf has proved himself a fine "noney" pitcher in the last two series and he holds the psychological edge of having stopped the Yankees every time he has faced them. But McGraw is in a more strategic position than he was at this time last year. Then it was to be Nehf or no one. Now, he can start any five men and be assured of a reasonably well pitched game. "Our pitching looks better than it did at this time last year," McGraw admitted. "However, you can't tell about that. Scott, Barnes, Nehf and McQuillan came thru with splendid performances then, but it is hard to say what my men will do now. In fact, doping any short series is precarious business." "I see they have made the Yankees favorites again. That suits me. I like to fight against odds and so do my men. It should be a great series. That is all I care to say about the matter." JUNIOR GIRLS WIN FROM SOPHOMORES Anahiem H. S. Junior girls basketball team defeated the sophomore squad, 16 to 5 yesterday afternoon after a fast 30 minutes of real play. The Juniors showed real speed and Coach Jacques found some real casaba shooters in the lot. M. Tousseau as guard, showed up exceptionally well and is headed straight for the first team. Wilma Mitchell of the winning squad executed brilliant work as forward. Elizabeth Schwienfest starred for the senior team. Junior players; Showalter, Mitchell, forwards; Miller, Cheatham, Patton, centers; Tousseay, Latourette, guards. Senior team, Schwienfest, Fay, Ruedy, forwards; Young, Holsworth, Murch, centers; Hile and Bemish. FREIGHTER AGAIN MAY BE IN PERIL LOS ANGELES, Oct. 4.—The freighter, Dianno Dollar, of the Robert Dollar line, which was reported last night to be preceding to being ravaged by a fire in her hold this port under her own power, after being ravaged by a fire in her hold Monday, may yet be in a serious plight, according to radio messages intercepted at the local harbor today. The Diana Dollar is reported approximately 990 miles south of San Pedro off the Mexican coast. All hands reported safe. These messages, it was said, were from the captain of the burned-out ship and were urgent requests for nearby vessels to transmit to him their exact position. It is believed Captain Anderson of the Diana Dollar, fearing to buck the northwest trade winds off the Mexican coast with a heat-warped tail shaft, is striving to join some other vessel that is northward bound. The intercepted calls have led local mariners to believe she may be drifting helplessly off the rough coast. The oil tanker W. E. Hutton is reported to be $8 million north of the Diana Dollar. It is reported damage to the freighter and her cargo by the fires will exceed $450,000. CABINET ENDORSES PREMIER POINCARE (By Frank E. Mason) (L. N. S. Staff Correspondent) PARIS, Oct. 4.—The cabinet today unanimously approved the stera and uncompromising attitude maintained toward Germany by Premier Polincare since announcement was made in Berlin that Germany would end passive resistance in the Ruhr.

Consequently there is no German offer "on the table" at the present time for allied consideration. Polincare's policy of neutral observation of German internal events was approved. According to advises received at the foreign office from Nuremburg, Premier Von Kahr of Bavaria threatens death or life imprisonment to any Bavarian who works for the occupational military forces.
