BIG CROWD ATTENDS
First Touchdown Is Scored
Within Seven Minutes

Thrilling One.
BERKELEY. Calif.. Jan. 2.
The University of California foot
ball team, undefeated for five con
secutive years, was crowned with
1924 post season honors here yes
terday when It defeated the. Uni
versity of Pennsylvania eleven,
rated as one of the best football
teams on the Atlantic coast, by a
score of 14 to 0 two touch
downs with added points.
A crowd of more than 50,000 saw
the Cnllfornian's outclass, outrun
and oulklck the Pennsylvanlans.
The first touchdown was scored
within seven minutes after the
game started. The Quaker play
ers Interfered with Imlay, on a
fair catch on the Pennsylvania 40J
yard line. No one touched the
ball, so Dixon, California, picked it
un and ran 26 yards to Pennsyl
vania's 14 ward line where he was
forced out of bounds. California
refused the penalty for the Inter
ference and took the ball on the
14 yard lino. Three line plunges
by John Young, California, shoved
over the touchdown and Carlson
kicked the goal.
California took the offensive In
the second period and by a series
if short passca and a 29 yar'
nin by lmlay touk the ball far In
to Quaker territory. With a
touchdown in sight, the gun ended
the second period with California
on Penn's four yard line.
The Quakers came back with
more power in the third period
and by subtle reverse plays and
heavy line plunges by Field, Leath
and Thomas carried the boll after
receiving the kick off on their one
ynrd line. On the fourth down
wllh a yard to go, California's
defense stiffened and Penn lost the
ball on downs and with it a chance
to tie the score.
The Callforninns were able to
withstand the famous attack In
the fourth period when they broke
It up and left the Quakers won
dering. Taking the ball on down
after breaking up Bevoral over
head attack on the California 45
yard line, the western team swung
Into an offensive once more.
The Californians on four buck
through the center of the Quaker
line like a battering ram, carried
the ball from the 40 yard lino to
a touchdown. Tho last plunge of
ten yards was made right through

Than Proposed.
(Aaaeclated Pre !ied Wire.)
WASHINGTON. Jan. 2. The
senate Dost office committee ap
proved today the administration
bill providing for Increase in
postatl salaries and rates.
Kate Increases recommendoe
by the post office department
however, were reapportioned at
that second class mall will be
charged considerably less than
orglnally proposed.
The bill would be effective '
April 15. this year, and term! r.
ate February 15, 1926. It p:
vtdea, however, for creation
a joint congregational commit
tee to 'conduct hearings in tb i
rate increases and report to eoi..
grass by the first week of tl.a
regular session.
The new measure provides ior
a flat 1 1-4 cent a pound rate on
all second class mall devoted to
Tending matter, instead, of two
cents, as proposed by the post
office department. The present
rate is 1 1-2 on all matter ex
cept that devoted to religious,

terial, which is now charged
1 1-4 centB a pound.
The eight zones for mall with
advertising matter are grouped
under the' new bill into three
divisions with rates of three
cents a pound In the first three
xones, six cents a pound In the
fourth, fifth and sixth xones and
eight cents a pound in the last
two zones.
This results In a slight in
crease on the lir-f two zona
rates over the .-ent law and
a reduction In t..e Inst three
zones from the present lnw and
Is less on the latter zones than,
proposed by the post office de
partment.
The proposed Increase of hair
a cent on drop letters and postal
cards is eliminated, but private
mailing cards and souvenir post
al cards are advanced from one
to two oenta.
The limit on weight of third
class mall Is reduced from eight
to four ounces and the rates In
creased In this clans proposed by
the department retained.
