POLYTECHNIC TEAM
TRIMS L. A. HIGH
Exciting Game at chutes Won in Ninth
Inning, When Malone Bats
Out Hit and Scores
Pierce

The struggle for supremacy on tht
baseball field between the Polytechnic
high school and the Los Angeles high
school in their spectacular game OF
yesterday afternoon at the Chutes parH
resulted in a victory for the Polytech-
mic by a score of to 2.
Never before did either of the schools
play such a strong game against eacf
other and never before during the pres
ent season did either nine display such
splendid team work. Los Angeles was
confident of success from the fact thai
she had beaten Poly last season witf
about the same men on the field, Whllt
Poly was happy over the reinstatement
of their pitcher. Sam Lafferty, who un-
til yesterday was debarred from the
Polytechnic team, being accused oi
professionalism.
The game throughout was graceo
with many sensational individual plays
chief among which was a flying catch
made by Poly's third baseman, Charles
Richerhauser. A Los Angeles man hao
batted a speedy low ball between thiro
and short and Richerhauser, who was
watching his man on third, suddenly
turned to find the ball coming by about
seven feet from his base. He had nc
time to wait and, jumping iully three
feet from the ground, he made a grace
full dive through the air, catching the
ball in one hand before he landed OF
the ground.
Almost Makes Homer
Monk Pierce, the Poly short, drew
great applause from the rooters when
he batted the ball in the fourth inning
but three inches from going over the
fence. Beamer, pitcher for the Los An
geles nine. displayed great contro
until he got excited in the last inning
when he made several errors from
which Poly gained considerably.
Lafferty pitched a good game foi
Poly and kept his head all through
The Los Angeles outfields did gooc
work and 1t was due to their efforts
that the score was not more in the
favor of Polytechnic, for the support
ers of the blue and gold proved them
selves heavy hitters.
Los Angeles scored the first point II
the game and followed up the first rur
with another. The sixth inning brought
1uck To the other side and the score was
soon tied. From then till the ninth IN
ming both schools played for all ina
was in them, each determined not to le
the other win. In the ninth, however

SAN FRANCISCO, March a.-With
a disadyantage of at least elgh'
mounds against him, Abe Attell, chanl-
njon featherweight of America, To-
night fought Battling Nelson TO III,
teen-round draw. The f1ght was q
most spectacular one ana there Nas ,
not one round that the great croWo
nresent was not on its 1eet shoutiHs
for one man or the other.
At the end of the contest both men
were fairly deluged with blood, Mel
sons face in particular presenting
sorry sight. -, +t,o
AttelI had the advantage of all the
earlier rounds. He matched MS SUI
perior skill agility, cleverness an9
fleetness of foot against the rugged
and sturdier man, and by outgeneral-
ing his opponent in this manner paue
fair to earn clear cut declslon. =
The turning point came, however, III
the ninth round. Nelson, who had
heen taking his punishment without
whimper finally succeeded in getting
mast fine Hebrews heretofore impreg-
nahle guard. and once having paved
+be xyay he worried his man consider
ably. -
Looks Like Finish
In the fourteenth round 1t looked as
if Nelson would score knockout, as
Attell was apparently in distress. But
the wonderful cleverness and KNOW,
edge of ring trickery stood Atteli Wen
in stead and he stalled and smothereo
the round out.
The consensus of opinion seemed 10
be that. while Attell by far lahaeo
the most blows and was the cleNereri
this was, to a great extent, ottset py
Nelson's aggressiveness and the su-
perior power of his blows. 1t was on
this that Referee Smith based his de-
cision. and he so stated to the assem-
bled press reporters.
Both of the pugilists were disSatls-
fed with the decision, each maintain
ing stoutly that clearly the decision
should have been awarded to him.
The conditions of the contest made IL
necessary for the fighters to weigh IN
at 1872 pounds at 6 O'Clock. Both men
easily made the required weight. and
while there was no official announce
ment made of the exact weights, 1t
was generally known that Nelson was
down as low as 131, while Attell
weighed about 124 pounds.
Betting on the result favored Mel
son. odds of 10 to ~ being offered
at the ringside.

The republican mass convention, call
ed by parties interested in the adoption
OF the primary election system In Van
Buren county, met at Hartford last
Wednesday. There was a representa-
tive crowd of people present, nearly
every township in the county icing we'll
represented. The question OF the adop
tion OF the primary nominating system
in the county did not meet with the en-
thusiastic approval OF the convention, as
was anticipated by the advocates Of the
reform movement, and il the sentiment
expressed by the convention is any cri-
terion from which an opinion can be
based, a very large majority of the voters
Of Van Buren, county are satisfied with
the present system OF county nomina-
tions. No one denied the right of the
primary reform advocates to have the
question submitted to vote OF the peo.
pie, and Of course the action take at
the convention was not binding upon
anyone and is not final. Nevertheless,
it must be admitted by even the most
ardent advocate of the primary system
that the sentiment expressed was most
conclusive, and, il it reflects the opinions
and ideas OF the county at large on the
question, there would be little use at
this time to bring the question to a
vote.
The proceedings of the convention in
detail are as follows:
Inasmuch as 1t was an assembly OF
republicans, the county organization
called the convention TO order, and in
the absence of hon. n. +. Simpson,
chairman Of the county committee, Don
+. Cochrane acted in his stead and read
a telegram from Mr.. Simpson explaining
his position on the primary question.
Geo. l.. Rich presented the name OF
Milan Virgins for chairman of the con
vention, and Harvey A. Sherman pre-
sented the name of Hon. G.. ID. Lawton.
A ballot was called for by County Clerk
Moser, and the chair appointed John
Mutchler and Volney Olds as telers,
who announced the result of the ballot
as follows:
Whole number of votes cast 10, of
which Hon. G.. D. Lawton received So,
Milan Virgins 43 and scattering 2. Mr..
Law.on was declared elected. +. n.
Wakeman was elected secretary.
