On the next kickoff, Pasadena neared
the Hollywood line when Captain
Taylor of Hollywood tore off beauti-
full 55-yard punt, but Heaton recovered
and ran through the visiting line for
full thirty yards. Temple went out
of the game because of a wrenched
ankle and for the remaining three
minutes of play, Hollywood worked
with only ten in the field. Because of
her weakened line Hollywood lost
steadily, and Pasadena sent her
speedy full over the line for the last
touchdown Of the day, and here, Seifert
again made a pretty goal kick. On
the next kickoff, Hollywood fumbled
and a touchdown resulted. Taylor
punted into Pasadena's territory but
the heavy home team showed the pig
skin to Hollywood's 15-yard line,
where the game ended.
The lineup was as follows:

GOSSIP OF THE DIAMOND
By RED PERKINS

VNRANK POE, pitcher for the Nor
walk team, is one of the leading
n semi-professional twirlers in the
miscellaneous ranks. He has been
+wirling for that club for the past
eighteen months, and in that time has
won twenty-seven games and lost only
six. Poe also twirled for the Order OF
Pendo team, and was one of the fast
est pitchers in the Summer league
ranks. Although only % years old, Poe
has the essentials of a good ball player
He will leave shortly for New York on
a business trip for his father for the
next six weeks. Manager Burke is well
pleased with Poe, and says that he not
only is a box artist, but an infielder of
good class as well, and is one of the
fastest sprinters on the team. Poes
hating average has been close around
the 800 mark, and as he seldom makes
an error while playing the field his
fielding average is high. Those who
have seen Poe in action consider him
one of the best pitchers in the south,
and with a little more practice predict
he will develop into fast player.
The Angels picked team and the
Los Angeles Giants will play this af-
ternoon on the JOY park diamond, and
a classy game should result. The
Giants stock was given big boost
when they won from the Orange Ath-
Ietic club, with Walter Johnson, the
famous pitcher of the Washington
American club, twirling against them,
but Johnson's friends contend that his
defeat was due to poor support. The
lineup of the Giants will be as follows;
Clark and Hunt, pitchers; Slater, catch
err; Bronson. first base; McClain and
Bartell, third base; Hunt, left field;
Battles, center field Brock, right field;
Hubert, substitute.
