VICTORIES
Coach Haggerty Has Strong Material
for Baseball and Basketball Rep
resentations-Four Men to
Form Nucleus

Baseball land basketball are to be the
principal athletic features at St Vim
cents college this year, Coach Hag-
gerty not having developed track
team to compete for the championship.
st. Vincent's has quite few new men
trying out at the different positions,
many Of whom promise to make a good
showing during the coming season.
Four of the old men who played on
the baseball nine last year are still
with the college and will help to place
the team at the top of the list Cap
tain Mccain, one of last seasons men,
will take up his old position at third,
while the three others, Lamar, Cum
nlngham and Phillips, will hold down
the same places they did previously.
Pitcher Phillips is to be one of the
standbys in the game this season.
Doubtless a dispute will arise as to
whether Phillips is eligible to play on
the college team under the pretext of
professionalism.
Coach Haggerty has a list of candi-
dates for the team this year which
should result in one of the strongest
teams of Southern California. OF these
are Childwater, who is trying for a
place behind the bat; Flick, a candi-
date for second base; Lane, who will
doubtless get q place as pitcher; Win
ME. who is endeavoring to secure
position in the outfield. Several 9TH
ers whose positions are not yet cer-
tain are Brennan, O'Malley, Burg and
Armmon.
Lengthy Schedule
The complete lineup is not yet ready
for publication, but the men who have
been named are the ones likely to Sc
cure places on the team. Coach Hag-
gerty has been corresponding for some
has arranged a schedule, the first game
of which will be in March. Haggerty,
in speaking of the prospects yesterday,
said:
81 think that we will have one of the
best teams in the history of the college.
The wet grounds have kept the men
from practicing before this, but now
we have the field in comparatively good
condition and practice will be continued
without interruption. The four men
who were on the team last year and
who are still with us will be a great
deal Of help, although we have a strong
list of new players, most of whom
should make the nine.
"I don't hesitate in saying that we
will give the other colleges of South
ern California one Of the hardest fights
for the pennant this season that they
have ever experienced. The men are
all working well and are trying with
all that is in them to improve the gen.
eral standing of the team.
I'VE have arranged a schedule of
games for the college series and also
an interclass series. The first of the
college games will be played in the
| north as we have them scheduled for
several contests with the northern COL
! leges.
1--WE have also arranged a basket
ball schedule, the first game of which
| is to be played next Saturday with Oc-
cidental, on our grounds. We have a
strong basketball team and expect to
sweep everything in this section of the
state"
The basketball team is in fine condi-
tion and will be able to give Occidental
a hard fight for the victory. Lamar is
captain and will play forward, with
Cunningham. Folsom is placed at CEN
ter, with the guards to be chosen from
Dolan, Wall and Hahn.
The team has been practicing regu-
larly for some time and the players

terial in the college. The schedule of
