COMMUTERS HOPES
PERISH IN THE
LAST ROUND.

Oakland and Fresno played another
snappy game yesterday at Idora Park
and mixed in so much uncertainty that
up to the ninth the outcome was in the
balance Reidy and Fitzgerald pitched
evenly throughout, and in spite of the
fact that the Commuters got more hits
Fitz scattered them well enough to
keep his team in the race every minute.
and they won out in the ninth by clean
hitting.
The men from the south plunged into
the midst of things at the start and
worked Doyle around on q pass, a hit
by Woiters, Casey's sacrifice and Truck
Reidy pegged to second so poorly that
Wolters came home, but Mclaughlin
and Delmas were good only for easy
outs.
Van Haltren. Kruger and Heitmuller
filed the bases by successive singles in
the fifth, but Hackett hit into a double
play. and 10 show his grief knocked
down Cartwright after the first base
man had caught him out. Deyereaux
popped out and promising situation
came to naught
Heitmuller slammed hit TO the fence
in the first good for three bases, but he
was called back TO first by the coacher
because he failed to touch the bag, and
that was as far as he got. In the third
he made IL, however, and came home
when Casey hit him in the back in the
attempt TO relay the ball to third ahead

AUTO ROAD RACES
MAY BE HELD
HERE.
BY r. n. L,HoMMEpIEu.

The Automobile Club of California
does not believe in road racing or rae
ing of any kind. IL keeps itself 10
the advancement of the interests of
the automobilists by seeing that the
laws of the State as passed by the
Legislature at it's last session are OBJ
served by the county officials. But
this does not prove that racing, espe-
cially road racing. is not beneficial
Every great road race that has been
held has proven a weak part in the
construction of the automobile and
these errors have been corrected the
following year.
The races in which these errors have
become apparent have taken place in
Europe and Eastern States. For Cali
fornians to hold such races would be
but TO prove what has already been
proven. But why let the East take the
lead in everything? Why wait until
a proposition hes been tried out and
then follow in the procession?
California has the reputation OF be-
ing a leader when she wants to set IN
and take the reins in her own hands.
There is no reason why the state
should not hold road race during the
winter that will center the eyes OF the
automobilsits on the Pacific Coast, Way
allow a Vanderbilt or a Gordon BEN
nett to offer a cup that would. call
out the best that there is in the sport
II
Tobins. Martins and the CrockerS?
All these families arc interested in
automobiling and could easily handle q
race e UaI to anything given il the
East But to make it a success they
must have the support OF the automO-
bilists at large. The thing Is to get
enough enthusiasts together to bring
the State 70 the front in the game.
Every great road race teaches les
son and leaves an imprint upon the
seasons history. In 1921 it was the
shock absorber: in 1905 it was. the
armored anti-slidding tire; in 1905 it
was the removable rim. The Grand
Prix was a tire race, out and out. Not
only an improved tire but an i'm
proved style to replace damaged tires
asserted itself. Future racing ears
must adopt the new style and an. al
Iowance of nearly. 100 pounds must be
made for the adoption of the movable
rim.
