Los Angeles, o. Oakland, 3.
Hy Berry stood at the Chutes park
gate yesterday to welcome his numer-
Gus guests and the smile which adorned
his cherubic countenance was of huge
dimensions. When at the close of the
afternoon session with Oakland and the
aforementioned guests had departed the
beatiflc facial expression was still there
and Hen was happy manager.
The principal reason for yesterdays
gladness. aside from the strenuous
labors performed by the ticket takers,
was the fact that the Angels again
hung the Indian sign on the oakland
ers and incidentally made 1t six
straight from the Greeks. They played
swell ball to do it, too, and If the
good work only keeps up the rag will
hang from the Chutes flagpole at the
end of the season.
But all that's getting away from yes
terday's game, which was filled with
features that pleased the packed
stands. The Smith twins, Judson and
Jimmie, threw in a couple of special
ties which brought down the house, and
Robert Lee Eager, at the time adorn-
ing the coaching line, brought down.
along with the house, the wrath of
Bull Perrine.
Freddie Bergeman, sore arm and all,
went on the firing line for the locals,
and after the first few innings he was
all to the good. In one or two rounds
it looked kind of stormy for the
twirler, but when 1t came to a real
showdown Bergeman was there with
the tabasco wing.
Wright dished them over for Van
Haltren in the opening spasms. but he
was a regular tabloid salad for the An
gels and was finally retired. Jim Smith,
who held down left field until Wright
NHa,, sr,NT lO,-
and his execution kept the Seraphs
guessing for the rest of the afternoon.
When the gong sent the teams to-
gether neither side lost time in fiddling
for an opening, but made marks on
the score board at once. Jim Smith,
first up for Oakland, landed on one of
Bergeman's choicest for a good two
sacker, which Ellis failed to get back
for in time. Van Haltren went out via
the Jud Smith-Dillon route, Jim Smith
landing on third while it was taking
place, and when Bergeman made a
clever put-out of Heine Heitmuller at
first he scored. Truck Eagan's bingle
failed to gather any moss and he died
on the pillows.
Carlisle responded to the noise when
he opened things for the locals by lin
ing one down toward second with all
the reverse English on. Haley threw
wild to first and by the time the horse
hide was back in the lot Carlisle was
roosting on the keystone stopping
place. After Ellis had failed on the
first bunt he laid down a pretty sacri-
flee along the third base line and Kitty
Brashear's pretty bingle to left field
scored Carlisle. Jud Smith shot a pip
pin out past Bigbee that singed the
hair of the initial pillow, scoring Bra
shear and drawing three bags for the
dentist. He died there, though, for after
Dillon had walked Cravath and Delmas
both fell by the wayside.
The second went by without incident,
but in the third the Angeles got to-
gether in earnest and touched off the
fireworks. When the hat was passed
Ellis, who by the way is playing real
ball these days. contributed a neat lit
tie single past second. Kit Brashear
followed with one to Eagan that the
big fellow failed to land, and Jud
short. Dillon sacrificed, and while
Wright was busy bouncing Cravath's
effort off his back Brashear crossed the
platter. Jud Smith took too big a lead
off third and was nailed, but Cravath
came home with another run when
Delmas got his weekly single.
Then came Bobbie Eager's star stunt
on the coaching line. Robert Lee was
making quite some noise over by first
base which, together with some ground
and lofty tumbling, displeased Mr..
Perrine. Bull waved Robert Lee over
to the side lines. and had not the inning
ended would have done the same with
Nagle, who succeeded Mr.. Eager, both
In person and actions.
1t looked like the dish was in the
ash can for keeps in the fourth when
Bergeman pulled himself together to
back out of a tight hole. Bigbee Sc
cured a place in the score column be-
cause OF nice single, and after he
had completed the circuit the bags were
filled. Bergeman was Johnny at the
rat hole, though, and retired the side
by giving Rip Van Haltren three that
he couldn't use.
Mr.. Wright had bad time of it in
the Angels half of the same act Berge-
man waited for wide ones and walked,
and after Carlisle had laid down his
life in the good cause Ellis also drew
transportation. Brashear was there
with a single to left. and with the
bags full Jud Smith bounced high one
over second that scored Bergeman and
Ellis. Brashear was caught off third,
but while they We're running him down
Smith sneaked over to the corner bag.
Dillon made the initial station in safety
and both he and Jud scored when Cra-
Vath caught a bender on the seam.
Oakland added another to her total
in the fifth fiesta, but from there on all
signs of work for the bellringer ceased
Jim Smith relieved Wright when the
locals came to the bench. and he was
stingy enough to hold them down to
two bingles at separated intervals. The
fight by rounds is as follows:
