First Game for Season VIII Be Con-

Ball Players

. The first baseball practice of the Po-

day at the Pomona diamond, and those
who are interested in this feature of
athletics at the high schol this year
were more than pleased with the APP
pearance of the men.
There is the same infield this season
as last, with Hal F'lemming on first,
Windrem at second, Mahoney at short,
Ned Fleming at third. In the right
field is Earl Kaufman and at left field
Harold Doolittle, as before, but the
school has lost its battery and CEN
ter field man. For the present Tom
Dillis is in the pitchers box and Sidney
Boyd wears the mask. while three can
didates are fighting for the center field
position-Bougher, Brewer and Becker.
The first game will be played with
