PICKED TEAM OF cOLLEGIANS
DEFEATS SANTA BARBARA ELKs

Special to The Herald
SANTA BARBARA, Aug. ia
picked team of school and college
players yesterday defeated the local
EIks by score of to 5. Neither team
had had any preliminary practice and
errors were plentiful, although the game
proved to be better than usually is seen
between teams picked up at such short
notice.
Sam Spaulding did the slab honors
for the Elks and his younger brother,
Albert, served out the benders for the
collegians. Both were raped pretty
hard at times, but got out Of some
tight places creditably. A fielding
feature of the game was Keeney's one
handed stab at Herbert's line drive over
short and the work of Bard at the
initial sack. Bard plays this position
with Princeton.

IT have for some time past watched
with ever increasing regret the tenden-

some extent in the country districts
toward complete paganizing of Ameri-

munities have gone of late in appoint
ing every sort of game and amusement

ing Sunday resorts less and less decent
are such as to create just alarm among
all thinking citizens. 1t was under this
conviction that / observed the very bold

Burgess George w. Grady had an ex-
citing tussle with a six-foot alligator
here today The reptile has been in
Mr.. Grady's possession for twenty
three years and a few weeks ago was
placed on exhibition in the show win
dow of drug store.
1t was decided to give the alligator
a square meal and several porgies were
thrown into the window today.
The reptile refused to touch the fish,
and Charles Daub secured an umbrella
and after spearing one of the fish
dropped 1t into the aligator's mouth.
Instead of eating the fish, he stood
up and struck the fish against the large
glass with such force that the window
shook. This was repeated several times
and Mr.. Daub summoned Mr.. Grady.
Grady seized the reptile by the tail
and tried to lift him out Of the win
dow. The alligator resisted and for
several minutes there was an exciting
tussle between man and alligator. Fin
ally Grady secured a good hold on the
alligator's neck and he was thrown on
the floor, still holding the fish in his
mouth.
After eating the fish, the alligator
did not again show fight and was easily
handled.

NEWPORT, r. l., Aug. 13.-In trying
to shield Mr.. and Mrs. Craig Biddle of
Philadelphia from the efforts of a cam
era fiend to take their picture in front
of the Casino today, Harry Lehr be-
came the central figure in lively con-
troversy into which the police were
called.
Mr.. Lehr arrived with Mr.. and Mrs.
Biddle in their automobile and as the
party stepped out the photographer
turned his kodak toward them. Mr..
Lehr complained to policeman. The
camera man then took a picture of
Lehr, who made a futile effort to cover
his face with his arm. Nevertheless,
he saved Mr.. and Mrs. Biddle from be-
ing photographed and they ran into the
Casino.
When the officer declined to interfere,
Lehr grew angry and complained to
Chief of Police Crowley. Meantime, a
fight was nearly precipitated by Miss
Anita Sands calling for volunteers to
smash the camera. Mr.. Lehr asked
that the camera fiend be arrested. but
Chief Crowley declined to do so.

FIRST BIC MILL
IN MANY YEARS
BRITT-NELSoN CONTEST IS
REAL THING
SCHEDULED FOR SEPTEMBER 9
Admirers Of Dane say He VIII Have a
Walkaway at Long Distance and
VIII Be New Champion
When the Sun Sets

The most important event in pugilis-
tic circles since the Jeffries- -Fltzsim-
mons affair, when the big bollermaker
stripped the title of worlds heavy
weight champion from the redheaded
Antipodean, is scheduled for September
0, when the peerless Jimmy Eddie
Britt hooks up for a finish fight with
the unknown quantity, Battling Nell
son.
Probably 1t is well to say that the
world may look for a new champion In
the lightweight division. Jimmy Britt
IS a first class quarter horse, but his
ability to go route has not been
tested TO the satisfaction of those who
expect to see him win from the Dane.
On the contrary, Nelson is stake
horse, which means that he is no good
as sprinter, but is bear at a dis
tance. His hopes for championship
honors lie in the unlimited, or finish,
fight and his ability to go the limit is
better than a doubt.
1t therefore is not improbable that
Nelson may loaf during the early stages
of the game and come through the field
ir the final quarter, and whenever Britt
begins to puff through the final stages
1t is better than even money that Mel
son will get the decision. VA
The smost certain result Of the fight
is the elimination of one of the COM
batants from the pug world. If Nelson
fails to make good in this fight, when
the conditions are to in his favor,
he will be under the painful necessity
of seeking employment at stated
salary. His drawing powers will have
vanished, because it will be conclusively
demonstrated that he is out of the
game. Should Britt lose there is no
room for him In any other quarter and
lightweight scraps will be extended
affairs in the future.
Nelson is a hard nut to crack at even
the short distance. At his own game,
a finish fight, where he will be given
the opportunity of demonstrating the
worth of his claims that he is finish
fighter, his admirers expect him to pull
down the long end of the purse.
1t will be the most important battle
In years and will doubtless attract
lovers of the game from all over.
