Daruma, Nuns Yelling and Azora. Da-
ruma was a good horse here last sea-
son, but has not done anything since.
If she is in form she should win. The
market will tell. Nuns Yelling should
beat out Azora for the place. The lat
ter has run over a distance of ground
and always showed speed. Should come
in third today. Lolita Gladstone and
Bauble have an outside chance to show.
Cicely only has a feather on her back
and has the speed of this bunch. Should
win all the way. Piquet has always
shown speed, but was in with better
horses. Looks as though she cannot be
worse than second. Merlingo has only
Jetsam to beat for the show money,
which he should do. Legatee has lot
of weight up. Uncle Henry might wake
up today.
The fifth race is very open affair,
as Edwin It. Fryer, Pepper and Salt,
DR.. Crook and Cyclops figure so close
that riders and racing luck will figure
in selecting the winner.
Like them to come Pepper and Salt,
Edwin T. Fryer and Cyclops.
Salina beat this same bunch last
time they met and should do so again.
Comedian does not run to his work and
might do better over a distance of
ground. Van Hope will be hard to keep
out of the money. Freesias and Diam
ante have a good chance and should
finish close up.

GREAT BALL GAME
IS SCHEDULED
CHASES AND CHANCES MEET
TOMORROW
Fast Array Of Talent viii Appear at
Diamond Affair at Chutes
Professionalism to
Umpire

Frank Chance and Hal Chase will
present a handsome array of diamond
talent at Chutes park tomorrow after
noon when the two great ball leaders
meet in battle royal Last Sundays
game between the Stockton team and
San Jose nine was one of the prettiest
affairs witnessed on q local diamond
for many a day and indications point
to even a better exhibition than be-
fore, as stronger mines will oppose each
other.
Chance will catch for his own team,
as Donohue has wired from the north
that he is working and will not be
able to reach Los Angeles for the
game. Mason, formerly an Angel
twirler, will be on the slab for Chance,
while Kid Mohler, the wonderful little
keystone man, is to be at second base.
In all probability Cravath will play
in right field, while Spike" Shannon,
the famous New Yorker, will be in left
Dillon and Jake Beckley are also prob
able members of Chances nine.
Hal Chase will have Bobby Eyer
receiving from McVickers or Garvin
Jud Smith is to be at third, with
kitty" Brashear at short. Carlisle
has been signed for left, with Eddie
Householder and Curtis Bernard in
the field.
Fans should witness a rafting per-
Torrance if grade of material counts
for anything. Such men as Shannon,
Chance and Chase are not to be seen
every day on a Southern California
diamond and it is such players as these
who drive eastern enthusiasts to a
frenzy during the ball season.
The big leaguers are not by any
means the whole show, however as
their team mates rank with the fast
est minor men in the country and
starred in the Pacific Coast league.
No game will be played today, as
previously announced, owing to the
fact that several players will not be
able to reach Los Angeles until this
evening. Orvie overall will probably
appear in the game week from to-
morrow.
Jack Sheridan in all probability will
umpire.

PROBABILITIES FOR TODAY

The best card OF the season will be
run off at Ascot this afternoon, with a
handicap of one mile the feature event
Ten of the best horses at the track
are entered, and as the weights are
arranged they all have an excellent
chance. Tartan carries top weight. 119
pounds. This weight will sit heavy on
him. but he is game and win be fight
ing 1t out at the end. Stilicho is always
close up at the finish Supreme Court
ran q good race his last two outs. The
dark ones here are Royal Ben and
Waterbury and as they are working
we'll they will have a very good chance.
Varieties is always right there. Like
them to come stilicho, Supreme Court,
Royal Ben.
Prolific only has Halton to beat for
the first race, and as he has done 1t
twice before there is no reason why he
should not do 1t again. Illusion has a
lot OF early speed and should show the
way home. Fraseuelo spread her foot
last week and VIII go better on heavy
track.
The second race looks 70 be between

Meeney was clever last night, clev-
erer than he has ever shown himself
before, and incidentally had opposed to
him a whirlwind in the person of john
son who, under the tutelage of some
boy like Abe Attell, might develop into
a classy one at his weight.
To the fourth round the lads went at
each other viciously but not without
science. Meeney worked his left like a
piston rod and soon had Scotty's face
in bad shape. Johnson started the
fourth period with every intention of
knocking out his clever opponent and
came within an ace of going down af-
