SAN FEANCISCO, Nov. 22. The Big Game wag bigger and
better than ever, in every direction except football. It was the
largest, most colorful and most
not one empty seat in that hngo
football, the skies clearing, after a dank, dreary morning of
thick fog. The cheering on both sides was thunderously thril
ling from the first gun to the last, a marvelous demonstration
of perfect timing and coordination. The stunts between the
halves were never better. Our scats were on the Stanford tide,
so we couldn't see the Stanford cheering section, but other
members of the party across the field, gave high praise to the
Palo Alto cheering section, and we can say that the California
presentation of poor Tiny Thornhill, with the placards offering
a perfect portrait of the Stanford coach, in its cleverness and
perfect execution, surpassed anything wn have ever seen in a
rather extended football experience.
. . e
But the came itself, particularly from the viewpoint of con
firmed Stanford sympathizer was terribly disappointing. We
were quite prepared for a defeat but not for a one-sided
SLAUGHTER, -a game in fact in which the red shirts from
Palo Alto were outclassed not in one department, but in all,
and were only lucky not to have the final score, 27 instead of
20 to 0 against them. Kicking, passing, deception, blocking,
line drive and zip in everything but the old fighting spirit, the
hitherto lowly Bears, had it over their ancient rivals, from the
first kickoff, like a tent. If as the pre game dope had it, Tiny
Thornhill, had a new and original razzle dazzle offensive, which
he felt it necessary to explain to the officials, before the kickoff,
to convince them it was in conformity with the rules, it never
was presented. California was the daring, quick thinking,
resourceful aggregation, not Stnnford, in fact that element of
surprise, of doing the unexpected, of mixing them up, in rapid
fire sequence, so characteristic of Stanford in recent years, was
entirely lacking. Stanford was ploddingly orthodox all through.
When rushing was expected, Stanford rushed; when a pass was
indicated Stanford passed; when
kicked. Without the services of
bv the name of Coffis, who was
off and tearing his fighting heart out all day, practically un
assisted, the coast champions for lo these many years, would
have had nothins at all to talk about. If Coffis had been ttiven
any adequate protection, if his line hadn't broken before the
California charge like tissue paper, the Bears would still l ave
won, but the Bcore might well have been quite different.
- -
We have no desire to alibi for
and earned every point they gathered. But this overwhelming
victory, like many others in football this year, clearly demon
strated, not only that football is very uncertain sport, but that
football teams, like race horses,
bad ones. Yesterday everything clicked for California, and J
nothing clicked for Stanford. The Bears were on, the Indians
were off. One well known San Francisco sports writer main
tains this morning that game demonstrated California has the
best team on the coast, and should go to the Rose Bowl instead
of Washington. This is supported by the slaughter of Stanford,
and the letter's tie game with the Huskies. Having seen Wash
ington just nose out Oregon in Portland, we believe, that bad
California played the Huskies instead of Stanrora yetsero.ay,
they would have won. But yesterday was yesterday, and to
morrow is another day again.
Our own view is, such a conjecture is not exactly sportmg.
After all Washincton hasn't been beaten, and California was
beaten twice in the conference
not one game in the foason, but all games in the record tnat
should determine the champion. Unless Washington should be
toppled ovor by W. S. C, the boys from Seattlo should get the
bid, for they have earned it.
On the other hand, this modern game is so uncertain, the
breaks so important, the psychological faotor such an item, if
California should be forced Bay to replay Stanford, next Satur
day, the result might vory well be entirely different. The only
certain thing about football these days is its uncertainty.
The first few minutes of yesterday's gamo however clearly
demonstrated the way the wind was blowing. Shortly after
the kickoff California fumbled on its 20 yard line, and Stone,
end for Stnnford foil on the hall. Hero was as smnsliing a
"break" as any team could have hoped for, first down on tho
enemy's 20 yard line, ft few minutes after it had kicked off.
It is our belief if Stnnford had on the first down, lived up to
its reputation and dono the unexpected, the result of tho game
might have beon different:. California lined up for a running
attack, nnd Stanford tried tho line. A bullet pass instead of a
line rlungc at that moment, oh well it's all speculation of
course along tho line of what would have happened if the little
dog hadn't stopped, but little things like this often do make
the difference between victory and defeat, a nip and tuck,
hard fought battle, and a holocaust.
. .
Coming up in the hotel elovator after the game, a middle
aged Stanford alumnus, with a battered cardinal carnation in
his button holo was grousing ovor the result, and finally came
out with the inevitable squawk Tiny Thornhill has always been
ovor-ratcd as a conch, the timo has como for him to stop out.

AUTUMN MEETING
A fine snappy fall day. The kind
of day .that makes too many mis
guided Americans wish to watch a
football game
when they should
be playing a
game themselves
or getting exer
cise and diver
sion In one form
or another. A
day Ideally suited
t o blowing off
steam, steadying
more or less Jan
gled or frayed
"nerves," Improv
ing the ctrcula
t i u n, earning
sweet sleep. Xn short, the day for
the autumn meeting of the OOTH
Club. OOTH means oxygen on the
hoof.
It Is all right for a doctor or
health adviser to talk about oxygen
in tanks. Most people are willing to
believe oxygen administered In ac
curately measured doses by Inhala
tion or by Injection may have some
remedial value. But when a doctor
mixes metabolism with all outdoors
the average wiseacre smiles and dis
misses the suggestion as Just more
crazy stuff by or Doc Daffy.
Time was when doctors prescribed
oxygen only when the patent got
blue In the face. Can't blame 'em
for being so far behind with It. Pa
tients generally waited until they
were almost blue In the face to call
the doctor In. While waiting perhaps
they took a few dozen coal tar tab
lets for their headaches, colds, grippe
or fever, and the coal tar stuff con
duced to cyanosis, which Is medlca-
lese for bluenesa of skin, Hps and
nails.
Cyanosis, or bluoness of skin and
Hps, Is not the first stage of anoxia
or oxygen lack. It Is rather the third
stage. The first stage is fatigue, both
muscular weakness and mental de
pression, impairment. of memory. The
understanding is Impaired more than
sensation, bo that the subject sees
without knowing or realizing Just
what he sees. The second stage of
anoxia Is exhaustion. Physicians to
day are administering oxygen by in
halation or by Injection in the first
and second stages of anoxia or as
phyxia; the old timers reserved the
remedy for the third stage.
Metabolism, the internal oxidation
process which Is life, goes on at a
certain rate when you are resting.
Walking two miles an hour Increases
metabolism, the absorption of oxygen,
three-fold; walking four miles an
hour, which la laater than most per
sons oan walk, Increases metabolism
flvo-fold; running 160 steps a minute
increases metabolism ten-fold, and
so does 30 minutes of dancing the

Vitamin C and A
Son, 16, and self, 66, have for three
years taken milk sweetened with
chocolate syrup. Is this harmful in
any way? What do you think of
(let us call It What-a-name) to pro
vide vitamin C? . . . (W. B. T.)
Answer. The chocolate milk is
harmless. Fresh home grown fruits
or their Juices, in season, are the
best sources of vitamin C, Adequate
daily ration of vitamin C for adults
in two or three ounces of freshly ex
pressed orange Juice, freshly express
ed tomato Juice, or vacuum process
canned tomato Juice from freshly
opened can. 'Any such fruit, vege
table or Juice on standing in the air
loses vitamin C strength through ox
idation. Home canned fruit or Juice
deficient in Vitamin C because of ox
idation during cooking. Little or no
oxidation occurs when the food is
cooked or heated in vacuum (her
metically sealed cans entirely filled
so that no air is contained In can).
An ounce of orange Juice contains
14 or 15 units of vitamin O and per
haps 20 units of vitamin A. An
ounce of tomato Juice (fresh or fac
tory canned) contains 14 or 1ft units
of vitamin C and perhaps 170 units
of vitamin A. Orange Juice yields 12
calories, tomato Juice 6 calories per
ounce. Comparative costs depend on
season and geography. In Infant
feeding, or In household economy,
factory canned tomato Juice Is quite
as satisfactory as any other source
of vliomln C and especially valuable
as a source of Vitamin A.

asked very few question of the
arguing attorneys. Last year, they
asked very pointed questions, which
hinted. In some degree, how the csbos
mleht be -decided.
The complacency of the court Is
somewhat discouraging to the law
yers. Their arguments have been cut
short. They suspect the Justices want
to avoid the situation of last year,
when they made the front page head
lines almost dally ith their slgnlfl
cant Inquiries.
Incidentally, In many waya the
court Is dispensing with formality.
Chief Justice Hughe does not follow
the hlstorlo procedure of reading all
the certlorarie granted. He merely an

Introduce several at once. It speeds
up procedure.
LAST CAVE DWELLERS
IN EUROPE ARE MOVED
10
BUDAPEST. (UP) The last settle
ment of cave dwellers In Europe has
disappeared.
Until recently. In a certain district
of the Hungarian county of Borsod,
not far from the Czecho-slovak bor
der, several thousand poor farmers,
together with their pigs and poultry,
lived In caves in which no ray of the
sun ever penetrated.
For many decade, neither authorl
tlea nor public opinion paid any
heed to thlr condition.
Then recently a group of oclslly
mlnded young Hungarian writers
roused the nstlon's conscience and
started a movement to end this me
dieval situation.
Among the first to respond to their
call were members of the csbtnet.
Minister of Interior Nicholas Ko
siuna donated a neat wooden farm
house: this exsmple waa followed by
hla colleagues. Foreign Minister Kolo
man von Tanya, Finance Minister Tl
hamer Fablnyl and Minister of Com
merce Oeza Bornemlsza.
During the summer a new up-to-
date village, with a modern church
and school building, waa constructed.
It was named "Mlkszatfalva," or
Mlkszaf village, after the writer.
Mlkzat, who. by depicting the plight
of the cave dwellers, had greatly con
tributed to the reform.
By the end of September the popu
lation had moved Into their new
homes.
To destroy every vestige of the for
mer shameful situation, the cave set
tlement waa blown up by dynamite.
