ANGELS TO
PLAY TODAY
OPEN SERIES WITH BoooLERs
AT cHUTEs
Randolph and Joy VIII Perform on
the Slab and Hot Game Is Ex-
pected-DoubIe Umpire
System

Get out the Sunday voice and dust on
the megaphone attachment! The Angels
are due to perform on the home lot once
again, and this afternoon they win hook
up at the Chutes with the Boodlers.
Berry's pets are playing the game like
National leaguers, and as they are In the
lead for the pennant the fans will turn
out and welcome them with open arms.
Just to start things off right, Barney
JOY will do the slab work for the visitors,
while Red Randolph is slated to mount
the hill for Cap Dillon. 1t is mighty hard
work to dig up nicer pair of slaosters,
and there ought to be something doing
from the start
With one or two exceptions the full
Angel team will be in the lot Jud Smith
is not quite well yet and Walter Nagle
will not don uniform, but the rest OF
the bunch will be there in old-time form
This leaves Brashear on third and Ber-
nard on second, while Rube Ellis must
take care of the center field offerings.
The Angels have certainly been clouting
the ball lately, and they expect to do
things to joys offerings. The Kanaka Is
spoken of as the best twirler In the
league, but this will not save him If the
locals are seeing as wen dS they uiA ie'St
week.
Ought to Win
From the looks of the standing at
present the Angels ought to win the pen
nant without much trouble. While the
team is in patched up shape every man
on 1t is playing ball for all he is worth,
and the twirlers are doing everything
that can DE expected. Berry'c new man.
Hess, seems to be a good one. and the
manager thinks he will pan out with the
top liners.
One thing Berry can't see through is
the failure of the eastern magnates to
draft Dolly Gray. The lanky one Is win
ming his games with unusual regularity.
and Berry will rely on him to a great ex-
tent for the rest of the season.
And another thing that Hen is tickled
almost to death over Is the fact that he
will be able to retain Delmas for another
year. The local manager had some KIND
Of a dicker on with Boston for the short
stops purchase, but 1t tumbled when the
Bean Eaters failed to come through with
their part of the agreement.
'Delmas is playing sensational ball,
said Berry yesterday, "and is really the
wizard of the league. He Is faster than
any shortstop in the bunch and in addi-
tion to this Bert is singing the ball all
the time Up north they're all sorry they
let him slip and give me chance to put
him on my payroll"
The double umpire system will be
worked here for the rest of the season,
and to- start off with Quigg and Moore,
who have not been seen at the Chutcs
yet, will perform. Quigg is spoken of as
a good Indicator man, and he and Moore
ought to be able to give satisfaction.
