A University of California eleven

the title of Pacific Coast confer

ready today for rim referees

Stanford University's Cardinals in
the annual big game la the Me

With a scoreless tie against
Southern California the only blot

Hears, by a vicUiry today, could
make certain a tie for the cham
pionship with the Trojans, also un
beaten, who close their conference
season today against a weak Idaho
eleven.
Bear Wall Invincible
Against the powerful running at
tack of Coach Warner's men, Cali
fornia will pit a forward wall that
has allowed no college opponent
to cross Ub goal line this Beason,
and an ever present threat In the
person of Denny Lorn, versatile
halfback, who runs, kicks and
passes in sensational fashion. The

"B" formation and an overhead
game, with .Captain Eitf Hoffman

hitherto impregnable Bear defense.
Flu Handicaps Stanford
While California, however, comes
to the classic with a team free
from Injuries, Stanford has had to
rnmhat an epidemic of influenza
that has wreaked havoc with her
first string. Tiny Bellman, tackle,
and Walt lleinecke, center, will
enter the fray in a weakened con

the hospital Thursday, while
lleinecke got out yesterday. In ad
dition, Chuck Smailing, quarter

action today, is definitely out, al

CHICAGO, Nov. 24.. Strike
threatB of 42,000 railroad train
men and conductors of western
railroads had exaporated today as
a new wage scale became effec
tive on 55 western railroads.
J. W. Hlggins, chairman of the
conference committee of managers
of western railroads, said the new
scale, providing a 61 per cent In
crease, will add $6,600,000 to the
payrolls. The new agreement is
retroactive to May 1, last, and
runs until May 1, 1929.
Although the Chicago and Alton
Is the only road running westward
from here that is not a party of
the agreement, Its employes are
expected to benefit since officials
several months ago agreed to
abide by the settlement affected
yesterday.
Present Rules Hold
Acceptance of the federal fact
finding commission's recommenda
tion yesterday culminated months
of controversy and conferences,
followed by a strike vote of train
men and conductors of the west
ern roads.
In accepting the decision of the
federal commission the railroads
conceded to employes the right to
enforce present working rules
without changes a point that had
proved that chief barrier to an
earlier agreement. Both parties re
jected an alternate proposal of the
commission providing an increase
of 71 per cent with changes In the
rules.
The unions, the Brotherhood of
Railway Trainmen and the order
of railroad conductors, had sought
a 15 per cent Increase.
No DoublVieaders
The roads had insisted upon a
change In rules permitting opera
tion of doubleheader trains. The
unions objected, claiming double
headers wfl dangerous to train
men and that thev would result In
longer trains, thereby reducing
emnloyment.
Unable to agree after a series of
conferences, representatives of
both sides apnealed to President
Coolidge and ultimately the feder
al fact finding commission review
ed the evidence at conferenren

the trainmen, headed by E. C.

of Tariff.
(AuwUtM PrtM I .rated Wlrt)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 24. An
old acquaintance, dressed In slight
ly different raiment, is waiting for
the members of congress. It is a
farm relief bill, drafted by Chair
man McNary, of pie senate agri
culture commlttet"&tnd it la to be
pressed for a voteJt the approach
ing short session.
The measure calls for the estab
lishment of a federal farm board
with membership of twelve to take
over the marketing of surplus
cropsbut the equalization fee,
the cause of many a legislative
quarrel Is missing. Senator Mc
Nary, co-author of the twice vetoed
MNary-Haugen Hill, has sought to
follow the administration's Ideas
on how to help the farmers. The
new bill abandons the equalization
fee, btit It puts the cost of surplus
marketing on the government.
McNary Seea Guccen I
It would permit the setting up
of stabilization corporations ovr
the country to supervise crop mar
keting. It being the theory that in
the event of a crop surplus, the
corporations would keep this sur
plus off the market, thus helping
prices. The surplus then would be
di&noscd of In off-seasons.
Srmiior McNary said that ad
ministration support of his meas
ure is certain, and that experts
from the departments of agricul
ture and the treasury helped him
get It in shape. He believes that it
can be disposed of at the short
session. However, there are re
ports that some of the legislator
aro fcitll faithful to their first lov.?,
the equalization fee.
Divergent Views
Tlitn In some quarters there is
the feeling that judicious altera
tion of the tariff would help the in

Hoover's strong supporters, Sena-,
tors Borah and Brookhart, have
contended that tariff revision Is al
most a specific In the cure for agri
culture. They may insist on the.
extra session, promised by Mr.
Hoover if the farm problem Is not
satisfactorily disposed of at the
coming session. 1
Speaker Longworth of the house
Is of the opinion that the house can
dispose of farm relief at this ses
