LOS ANGELES. Aug. *— 3*—
’Gus" Shaver o! Southern Cali-

snatching victory for the western
Big Three'* eleven from an
eastern team last evening in a
demonstration game of American
oollege football played under
the floodlights of the Olympic
Stadium with many of the 60.000
5 eta tors seeing their first con-
test.
The final score was 7 to 6 In
favor of the combined forces of
U. s C. California and Stanford
against the aggregation repre-
senting Yale Harvard and
Princeton but the far western
players gave a more superior
exhibition of offensive football
than the margin indicated. All
the scoring was confined to the
last period and the west's win-
ning spurt came with only three
minutes left to play and the east
fighting desperately to hold its
touchdown lead.

American Railroads Can Be Great
Influence In Restoring
Normal Conditions
►
A Statement to tbe Public by L. W. Bafdwfn
President of tbe Missouri Pact do Lines
AMERICA never has been prosperous when oat
L railroads were suffering and tha nation always
has prospered when the railroads did. Railroads
* have sutfered terribly in the last three years losing
enormous volumes of traffic and revenues as a result
of having to combat simultaneously both tha eeonomio
j depression and unregulated subsidized competition.
i
Q Hardships to which railroads have been subjected
have resulted in their being compelled to contrib-
ute unwillingly to prevailing distress. Great numbers
of employes have been deprived of work because of tb«
decreases in traffic volume and purchases of tha rail-
roads have had to be curtailed drastically because of
lack of funds resulting from decreased revenues.
Q These conditions can be improved measurably if
- tbe entire transportation situation is stabilised.
In other words. If railroads and other forme of trans- ■
portation are placed on an equality with regard to
regulation and opportunity the railroads can be de-
pended upon to provide America with the character
of transportation service the country muat have at
reasonable rates and the railroads will find it possible
to re-employ thousands of workera and again go into
the markets for millions of dollars worth of iron and
steel products fuel—both coal and oil—lumber and
forest products and miscellaneous manufactured ar-
i tides of every character.
t
Q The restoration oi tbe purchasing power of Amer-
ican railroads can be made tbe balancing factor
in bringing about a turn in present conditions and
eventual restoration of normal conditions.
Q The time has come and it is essential that all
forma of transportation be treated equally fairly i
and justly in the public interest. This will be done ;
when the American people want It done and make
their wishes known.
