ANGELS WAKE UP
IN NINTH INNING
TURN TWO HITS INTO THREE
RUNS
After Drawing Eight Goose Eggs, the
Seraphs Find Shields and in Ex-
citing Finish Turn Defeat
Into Victory
Los Angeles. 9; Seattle, 2.


The scrapping qualities of the Angelic
crew were shown yesterday when, after
being shut out and beaten until the
ninth inning the Morleyites came with
rush, tied the score and in the tenth
inning put over the winning run.
Shields pitched a magnificent game
for the Siwashes and deserved to win,
but the hoodoo which has pursued all
the Angeles opponents since their re-
turn from the north had a bulldog grip
on the game and the monotony of
Seraphic victories could not be shaken
off.
Tozer, too, was in splendid form and
to his steadiness in the box, more than
any other one thing, is due the victory.
To snatch a game out of the firse as
was yesterdays is the real article OF
ball playing which the limited number
of loyalists who attend the games de-
light in.
When the winning run came in for
the Angels in the tenth inning the 1900
fans gave momentary evidence Of ap-
preaching insanity, but the excitement
died away when the teams started Off
the field Immediately after the score
was made.
The game was close and exciting
throughout. but was not nearly as good
a game as the score would indicate.
Misplays were frequent and the locals
error column contains an official quar-
tet, whereas their opponents could
make but one misplay.

Turner's Defeat Whlttiers In Match I,e-
spIendent With sIugglng and
Strong Rivalry

The Turner Tigers defeated the
Whittier basketball team on the Whit
tier grounds yesterday by a score Of
13 to z.
The game was fast and hard fought
and at times rough, one of the Whit
tier boys being forced from the game
for slugging.
Although the college men put up a
game fight, their forwards were no
equal for Welch and Karstens, the
speedy Turner guards.
Whittier turned out en- masse to
cheer their players and brought along
the whittier brass band, which came
out second best in opposition to the
two hundred pretty co-eds who, with
their songs, urged the college men to
victory.
The struggle against the Turner's was
in vain and the collegians went down
to defeat.

JIMMY WALSH SEEKING DATE
WITH NEIL
Conqueror of Digger Stanley Wants
to Come West and Fight Holder
of American Bantam
Title

1t is within the range of possibilities
that Jimmy Walsh, who sprang into
prominence by defeating Digger Stan
lev claimant of the bantamweight
championship of England, will be seen
on the coast this winter.
Since defeating Stanley, Walsh has
announced that he will seek a fight
with Frankie Neil for the American
championship, and thereby attempt TO
merge the titles into a worlds chaH-
pionship. .,.,,
Walsh has asked for a fight with
Neil and Neil has written to Tom NC
Carey for a date at the Pacific Attn
Ietic club. If McCarey succeeds IN
bringing the boys together for a cham
pionship struggle the battle Will pc
held in Los Angeles during the hoh-
days or Immediately afterward.
Neil and Walsh are hanker1ng Tor d
scrap and McCarey is in the business
of accommodating them. The battle
would be another excellent card for
the local club, and McCarey is hopetul
of success in matching them.
Since the retirement of Bowker from
the bantam field Neil is the logical
holder of the worlds title, as he lost it
to Bowker. Neil holds the American
championship and is anxious to defend
It against all comers, although he has
not fought for many months.
Walsh is a clever chap and is being
hiehly praised by the eastern press
for his remarkable development as
topnotcher in the bantam class in the
last year.

MT'S Me, MULLEN OF LICK'
Epiarammatic Expression Born During
a Scrimmage Has Become Famous
ON Stanford Campus

TITS me. Mullen. of Lick" Is the ex-
preston of the hour on the Stanford
campus and the incident leading up
to it came about during the Oregon
Stanford game two weeks ago.
Mullen, who is the crack punter and
place kicker of the webfoot aggrega-
tion, was formerly of the Lick high
school team. What makes his booting
the more remarkable is that the toes
of his driving pedal are missing.
The Stanford men feared Mullen's
appendageless foot and at every op-
portunity he was buried beneath the
pile. One scrimmage was unusually
fierce and the referee had difficult
time in pulling the men apart.
The last player on the ground pre-
sented such a flattened and unrecognlz-
able appearance that the official shook
him by the arm and demanded his
identity. TITS me, Mullen. of Lick"
was the half smothered response and
the epigram, which found life at the
bottom of a scrimmage pile promises
to become an undying phrase among
the Palo Alto men.

Second Victory of Season

Both elevens were evenly matched
and the touchdown was made in the

The Bankers played a good game,
but their play, the majority of which
was directed at Tackles Morris and
Johnson, did not avail them enough
ground to cross the military goal.
The military team will play the

tomorrow afternoon.

half for California. Snedigar got past
Dolan, Oregon's right tackle, and had a
clear field in front of him. Williams,
Oregon's speedy left half, shot after
him and kept gaining until the goal line
was reached, when he tackled Snedi-

Californian was over the line and had
