new JERSEYS PLAYERS WIN
CONTEST
DoubIe-Header Played at Joy Park.
Large Crowd Attends Games
and Cheer1 the
Salts

A crowd of about 400 enthusiastic
fans Travelled out to JOY park yesterday
afternoon to see the jackies play ball.
AS a result they were treated with some
of the best ball ever played by amateur
teams in this part of the country. Two
games were played, the tars of the New
Jersey winning from the crack Dyas-
Cline by the score of 1 to 0, and the
tackles of the Ohio loosing to the
Eagles by the score of to 2.
1t was 2:30 before the jackies appear
ed on the field. The sailors said that
they were misinformed as to the loca-
ton of JOY park. They were directed
by the conductors of the cars to Chutes
park, where much to their surprise they
saw hundreds of fans to welcome Them
When they were tolC that they were
misinformed as to the location of the
place they turned with a grunt in
search of the park of joy. This un-
necessary transportation delayed the
tars SO much that it was necessary to
cut the-game down to seven innings.
The jackies showed the fans how the
game should be played and it would
make some of our big leaguers wake
up to see the class of spirit that was
shown yesterday. Every man on the
navy team was there to win, and with
odds against them they worked the
more. There was one apparent defect
in the sailors camp. This was their
weakness in running bases, which is due
to the fact that they are always on
board where there is no room to prac-
tice running; aside from this they
showed better team work than their
opponents.
The Ohio boys started badly when
three runs were scored in the first in
ming, while O'Connell was in the box,
but things settled down when Scott
went in to pitch in the last of the first
with three men on bases and no outs.
Here he showed his class by pulling out
of the hole without run scored against
him. Had 1t not been for several costly
errors made by his teammates he would
have won the game.
The champion New Jersey team well
deserves its title. Besides having a
crack pitcher, all the men on the team
are excellent fielders and batters Only
three errors were made in yesterdays s
game and two of these were made by
the Dyas-Clines. The game was fast
and exciting. Several brilliant stunts
were pulled ok by the tars.
The teams from the Minnesota and
Kentucky will meet tomorrow at 230
The scores follow:
Los Angeles herald., 1908-04-20

A number of new men will be there to
try for the back positions, and with
Casey, Huppert Calf and Stoney to
pick from fast trio should be ar
ranged.
Although several rumors were spread
that Gait, the crack Indian fullback,
was going to Carlisle he firmly stated
that he will play on the Saints eleven
next season.
Games have been arranged with Los
Angeles high and the Oregon Aggies
to be played in Los Angeles. Negotia-
tions are now under way for games
with Colorado and Utah universities
and Colorado School of Mines. Coach
Hempel will make an effort to take his
team on an extended trip to Oregon
and Washington during the Christmas
HOLIDAYS.

SPEAKER CANNON FEARS
REPRISAL BY DEMOCRATS
Memorial Service for Late Repre-
sentative Guarded by "Unoie
Joe" and His Floor
Managers
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, April 19.-Memorial
services were conducted today in the
house Of representatives for the late
Representative George w. Smith OF
Illinois. 1t is the first time in two
weeks the proceedings were opened
with prayer, the house during that
period having practically been in con-
tinuous session.
In view of yesterdays episode be-
tween Speaker Cannon and Mr.. Will
liams, the minority leader, growing
out of the speakers arbitrary adjourn
ment of the house, it was deemed wise
from a party standpoint to have as
many Republicans as possible on
hand.
About 100 responded to the notifica-
tion, although any prospect of a clash
with the Democrats was dissipated
when it was observed that only a few
were in their seats. Speaker Cannon
and his floor managers, Messrs. Payne
and Dalzell, occupied their accus-
toned places until the journal had
been approved and a resolution adopt
ed providing for adjournment innme-
diately after the delivery of the eulo-
gies on Mr.. Smith, when they took
their departure, as did many of the
members.
With the exception of Mr.. De Ar
mond, none of the minority leaders
was present.
