Yesterday the police placed picket

M. Berkowtz, the man whom Hale is
alleged to have assaulted, has many

When James Hale was seen, however,
he told different story, saying Berko-

Refuses to Discuss Wound

Francisco Velasquez, a Mexican,
was brought to the central station at
an early hour this morning and
booked as a suspect.
The man was found in a barn near
the corner of Sixth and Main. and
when questioned by the officers began
TO run. He limped badly as he tried to
escape, and at the hospital it was
found that the man had a pistol
wound below the knee.
The Mexican refused to tell how or
where he had been shot, but judging
from the wound the surgeons believe
the man has had the wound for more
than a week.
The detectives consider the man a
desperate character, and as soon as
the physical condition of the Mexican
will warrant it the officers say they
will sweat him for Information.

PALO ALTO LOSES
TO POLYTECHNIC
POMONA TEAM WILL NEXT BE
TACKLED BY WINNERS
Feature Is Run by coover In the
Ninth - An Exciting Game Is
Played at ST. Vlnoents
Campus

In a pitched battle between Poly
technic and Palo Alto high school
teams yesterday afternoon Polytechnic
won with a score of one to nothing.
The game started fast and up to the
ninth inning no runs were made when
Palo Alto came to the bat; no man
succeeded In making a base hit and the
rooters calling for ten innings and the
players doing their best to finish the
game by slugging at the ball and the
pitcher doing his best to strike out
the men.
Polytechnic was doing well, having
gotten eight men to the first bag and
hitting at the ball as II 1t was
going to knock the cover off ii, and
Ed Elliot pitching the best game that
he ever pitched and fast making things
hum as he swung his arm and making
the ball twlrl over the plate and the
umpire calling "strike"
Coover, the little left fielder of the
Polytechnic, made the run that won
the game, stepped to the rubber, after
Lafferty had swung at the air three
times, and knocked a grounder to Tay-
lor, who, although being wide awake
and anxious to do all that he could
to save the game. juggled 1T and
allowed Coover to make the first and
Coover being on the alert stole Sec
ond and from there made his way
down to third
Saylor came to the bat and with a
man at third put all of his steam be-
hind him and raped the globe as far
out In left field as he could, letting
Coover down to home, scoring the only
run that was made and also the win
ming one.
With howls of delight the rooters Of
the winning team swarmed down to
the field to shake hands with the boy
who scored the run.
Polytechnic having won this game
will play Pomona at the st. Vincent
grounds this afternoon, and as the
teams are about equally matched some
good playing is to be expected.
The lineup for both teams was:

habit grows on good player. In good

good on low shots, Amestoy is likely to

Several hard-fought matches replete
with fast and clever play gave the Los

tournament a most auspicious start yes

Long before the time scheduled for
the initial engagement, a party Of
"rousters' and boosters" slipped pas.

minute was there a chance to COM
plain of enthusiasm thereafter. Such
roofing" never was heard before at
any local tournament, but I'm many
cases the class of play was worth all
the applause it got.
OF the first days matches the head
liner was easily the battle between
Frank Garbutt and Samuel G. Hail.
These worthy gentlemen occupy the
same Office and are officers of the same
oil company, but the fact never became
apparent in the course of their play.
At the outset one Of Halls terrific
clouts struck the ex-champion in the
short ribs and brought the blood to the
surface, possibly having some effect
upon Garbutts play, though he covered
the court in good style and made very
game uphill fight playing steadily, taxi
ing advantage of the younger mans oc-
tdSlOHdl GNCuTSiOlS up lHtO ttle air, anu
missing only such balls as he could not
get to.
Halls Driving Wins
Hall went the distance little better
however, and his continued driving
smashing game finally won out for him.
though the final tally was IL to 21-a
defeat without disgrace, as it were.
Dick Welcome, another of the veter-
ans, was more fortunate in his partner
than the first of the "other days bri-
gade the first match of the afternoon
going to Welcome over Sam Wood by
the maximum score, Wood failing to
get point. Welcome is not in the best
of shape, but is getting better every day
and is likely to prove quite a factor in
the tournament
Gus Hill and Dick Dunnigan then came
Sn for their little exhibition. Richard
was on dress parade with a swell bath
ing suit which might have won him
home at the beach, but didn't buy many
points yesterday, the score being 81 to

boy 21-14 package after a match that
was well worth looking at. Hill is not

all. LoomiS uses hard overland SER
vice which most players find hard to
return, and he kills the ball effectively
even or low back-court shots. his drive

a hard lad to beat in the finals.
