ATHLETIC CLUB TO
HAVE BASEBALL TEAM
MANY FAST AMATEURS AMONG
MEMBERS
Rowing Enthusiasts Are Daily Sweep
Ing over Playa del Rey Lagoon
In outrIggers-Prepare for San
Diego Races

Having entered into every line OF
sport which distinguishes local athletics
the Los Angeles Athletic club has for
mulated plans for placing a strong
amateur baseball nine among the num-
erous stick wielders who are at pres
ent contesting on the diamond.
\ Among the club members are many
who at one time or another classed as
fast amateurs in mercantile or college
mines and with careful coaching and
practice should weld a team capable
of ranking with the fastest aggrega-
tions of the south.
Athletic club enthusiasts have taken
to rowing with a vim that bodies well
for the aquatic feature of the organ
ization's life. The work boats and gigs
which have been delivered from San
Diego are without doubt the fastest
rowing boats placed on Southern Cali
fornia waters. Throughout the week
the lagoon at Del Rey witnesses aspi-
rants for the club crews sweeping UP
and down the course in an earnest
effort to become acquainted with the
outriggers.
Coach Franklin has already proved
that he is a past master at the art and
under his tutelage several of the most
active members are rapidly attaining
fair form.
Among those who have developed a
becoming stroke Is Dick Dunnigan and
the local athlete will make a strong bid
to represent his club at the San Diego
races which will be held in September.
