Oscar Graham took all the fight out
OF the Angel band in the seventh
spasm yesterday at Recreation Park
by swinging on fast one and clouting
it out to the left garden for a couple of
bags, scoring Buck Francks with the
only one for the afternoon. 1t was one
Of those old-time hits that Oscar used
to line out in former days, and he made
himself right with bunch of his old
admirers with that wallop. Score
Oakland l, Los Angeles 0.
Baum bad another of those numer-
Gus hard luck days. He pitched good
enough ball to win any kind of a game
in any mans league, but Dame For
tune would not stop on her rounds.
Several times the Angels could have
broken UP the game with a hit, but
Graham was always there with the big
twists, and hits did not come through
any too often.
Francks started off the seventh by
driving out a fast one over short. Just
then the venerable Peter Lohman ap-
peared on the coaching line attired in
his fighting clothes. 1t was the first
time the old gladiator showed on the
field OF action this season, and the fans
let out few yells. They were sure
Peters appearance was a good omen,
and their dope was right, though it
did not look the part for a moment.
Byrnes followed Francks, and the
best he had was a pop fly that Heine
Spies gobbled. When Graham came to
the plate the fans pleaded for one of
those ancient swats. Oscar heard and
lined the first good one out over Ross
head for two stations, while Francks
tore over the sacks and registered the
lone run.
The Angels looked desperate in the
ninth, for with one gone Smith swung
through to right with a resounding
two-sacker. Neither Dillon nor Cravath
had hit in his bat. 80 the royal
chance to tie up the score fell by the
wayside.
In two other innings, the third and
the fifth. the Commuters cleaned a
couple of bingles from the offerings of
Baum, but the young man always had
the next batter on his staff Francks
made the only error Of the game when
he booted one from the bat of Spies
in the eighth spasm. The score.

George s. Thomas End
cliffe Precise Carries Off
the Highest Honors
PRIZE WINNERS PARADE
Interesting Scene Is Pre-
seAted While the Trophies
Are Being Distributed

The ninth annual bench show Of the
San Francisco Kennel Club was
brought to a successful conclusion last
night in Mechanics Pavilion before the
largest attendance of the season.
The night was given over entirely to
the distribution Of the valuable cups
and trophies won by the best dogs in
the various classes. During the MORN
ing Judge Ashton passed upon the
merits of the various dogs in the COM
petition for the best dog in the show.
After considering all the candidates he
conferred this high honor on George s.
Thomas wire haired fox terrire End
cliffe Precise.
The only other competition was that
for the best sporting dog in the show.
This went to George Bleistein's pointer
Champion Marks Rush, handled by
Ben Lewis.
The spectators crowded about the
ring during the evening while the spe-
cial prizes were being distributed. Mrs.
DR.. w. p. Burnham, wife Of the presi-
dent Of the Collie Club, graciously pre-
sented the artistic trophies. of which
sASiC was q bSWIQcIlH6 fdiiCty VI lhC
silversmith's art.
As the proud owners entered the ring
with their dogs they were loudly ap-
plauded. Mrs. Thomas, who won a
large silver punch bowl with the toy
Pomeranian, placed the little black
dog in the vessel and carried both off
in triumph.
Marcus Nelson, the principal winner
in the st, Bernard class, is handled by
a Chinese. When the latter led his
huge charge into the ring he drew
forth the heartiest applause of the
night
The French poodle in his remarkable
decorations, a team Of four Italian
greyhounds. bull terrier, bulldog
and a number Of others, including the
sensational cocker spaniel Sir David,
were all, admired and applauded.
Manager H. H. Carlton, Ring Stew
ard w. E. Chute and Steward David
Sinclair worked unremittingly for the
success Of the show and for the COM
fort of both exhibitors and spectators.
The show was a marked success in
the class and in the number Of dogs
benched.

BROWN MEN GIVE SOLDIERS
A HARD FIGHT ON DIAMOND
Boys in Blue Take Rides on Kono's
Curves in the Sixth
Tuuty,-

The boys in blue" of the Presidio
baseball team got away with the Jap
anese delegation from the Waseda
University yesterday by the score Of
z to 5 on the Presidio athletic
grounds. The spry little visitors kept
Uncle Sans lads on the run, as the
final result was uncertain until the
last brown slugger had been retired.
The soldiers had their first good
look at the little twirler in the last
of the sixth spasm. when with a COM
bination of clean hits and a tumble
they rolled UP Ave tallies. The sixth
was Kono's only bad inning.
The work of the man behind the
bat for Waseda called for round after
refund of applause from the crowds Of
soldiers and Japanese enthusiasts. At
one point in the; game this small won
der coaxed a man off the third bag
b. clever feRe throw to second. and
lightning-liase genuine toss to the
baseman at third caused the runners
retirement.
Every liner fly or grounder within
reach of the tiny shortstop was nailed
and disposed ST with unerring preci-
sion. At the initial sack the guardian
for Waseda surprised the bleachefs by
his agility. The lads from the bar
racks soon found it Improbable to
steal second, as the ever wat2hful
player at this position was able to put
the ball on a base runner as neat as
any big Lacquer.
The players went to bat as follows:
Waseda-Kono, D.; Yamaki. c.: Izu-
mitani, 1b.; Oshikawa. 2b.; suyama.
Sb.; Hashido, ss. Obara, c. t.; Suzaki,
