SCOTTISH BoWLERS MEET
ON THE PUBLIC GREEN
Practice and Tournament Matches
Are Played by Experts in
Golden Gate Park.

The members of the San Francisco
Scottish Bowling Club were out In force
yesterday afternoon on the Golden Gate
Park green. Besides the usual large num-
Der of singles and doubles practice
matches, three of the tournament con-
tests were played. This event was COM
menced three weeks ago with an entry
list of sixty-four, the largest ever record
ed in a tournament of this kind.
The tourney matches yesterday were
somewhat one-sided, the match between
z. c. Medau and r. Frohman being the
closest. Foreman when he had made his
necessary twenty-one points was five
ahead of his opponent.
]. C. Moffat won from Robert Dalziel
in a decisive manner, the latter only be-
ing able to win eight points when Moffat
had run up the required twenty-one.
The third competition was between T.
N Latimer and Andrew Wilkie. The
former was too steady for his opponent
and won by score of q to L.
A number of tournament contests are
expected to be played at the park to-
morrow, Labor day.

CRIPPLES LAND
ON IKE BUTLER
Bombard His Offerings
for Six Runs in
Two Innings.
Bill Devereaux Holds Port
land Sluggers Down
Throughout.

Big Ike Butler was sent out on the
mound yesterday afternoon to battle the
Cripples at Recreation Park He bravely
took up the burden. Then the Cripples
took him up, mildly at first, but finally
with a determination that would drive
any slabster to the timbers. When it
was all over the Cripples had amassed
six, and the game was theirs, though it
dragged along for seven more innings
Score. s to 2
Such a walloping has not been equaled
here in a long time. Every hit that
sounded and echoed through the expanse
of the lot was a clean one with that gen.
uine baseball ring to it.
Messerly inaugurated the little matinee
in the Cripples' half Of the second round.
He led off with clean drive. Then Uncle
Peter responded with another, and so 1t
went down the line. every one taking a
swipe at one of Buffers best and send
ing the ball on a mad career to the iso-
lated corners of the lot, where no waiting
fielder's mitt was ready to receive it.
When the bombardment at last came
to a close Mr.. Butler was told TO be seat
ed on the bench and Mr.. Thielman trot-
ted out and got busy on the firing line.
The little German was the goods for the
rest Of the game. They only landed on
him four times and secured two runs,
one of which he allowed with a wild
pitch.
Meanwhile the Red Dog" Mr.. Brindle
Devereaux, was pitching some that the
Brownies could not solve, try as they
might To be sure. they landed every
once in q while on one of Bills specials,
but never with force enough TO do any
damage. In the fourth O'Hara and Mes
serly made a pair of errors. This allowed
a run. The only time the Brownies hit
Bits offerings hard was during the pro-
gress of the eighth, when three in a row
netted one more, the last for them.
After the game many Of the generous
fans had a sort Of meeting and decided
to throw Bill a few pieces of money in
recognition of the way he handled him
self during the stormy siege. So they
began to shower the coin from the stand
and Bill graciously accepted 1t. He is
richer by 50 Il.
Sam Morris, the Indian pitcher, will join
the Brownies this evening and will make
his San Francisco bow in Monday after
Moons game, pitching against Devereaux.

made a much better showing than was
expected, the second set being 9-7. In the
semi-final round the Misses May and
Violet Sutton, who held the championship,
defaulted to Miss Dobbins and Miss Flor
ence Sutton. The former were not pres
ent when their match was called.
In the mixed doubles play was com
pleted in one half down to the final and
in the other down to the semi-fnals. In
the upper half Mrs. Seymour and Louis
Freeman won a place in the final and will
meet the winners of the match between
