The heart of football fandom bent
wildly here today as the undefeated,
i ever-tied team of Notre Dame uni
versity fuced Stanford university's
unbeaten eleven in a Uose bowl battle
for east-west gridiron supremacy.
Approximately 50JHK) fans held tic
kets to the game, and other thousands
shut out by the stadium s shortage of
I seals, Uoned to g.inipse the inlersey-
; ticnal clash from the edge of the
uiroyo in which the field of battie
i.i titled.

of the country generally expected
the toughest of tussels, ho. ever
widely Uiey differed ns to the ulti

Staotord was romeued the edge iu

any advantages possessed by the wes

tho three best temis in the east, i
Aside from the outcome o tho i
same, the most uncertain ele
ment was the weather, which was
threatening to provide rain. Ow
ing to recent rains, the field was
likely to he somewhat soggy,
though it was said yesterday thnt
a dry night and morning would
put it in fairly good shape. A
mild temperature was predicted.
The California management ex
pected 50.000, if Mr. Pluvius stay

cause of the long journey and be
cause of adverse weather since
Thanksgiving. They were handi
capped further by the loss of sev
eral Btars from injuries. On tho
other hand, Coaeli Andy Smith's
Bears had fewer men ton the medi
cal list than at any time during
the season. There was doubt
whether an end and a guard could
start, but they were not badiy
hurt and capable substitutes were
trying on their shoes.
Pennsylvania had a slight ad
vantage in weight, averaging 184 '4
to ITS1, pounds, for California, but
this element, unless overwhelming,
counts for little in present day
football. Prophets of tho game
held the two teams to be closely
matched. The kickoff was sched
uled for 2:30.
