By his work yesterday Hollis proved
himself to be one OF the best twirlers
in the Academic league. He was cool
at all times aud kept his hits well
scattered. On two occasions he got
himself out of a tight place in man
ner that would have done credit to
big Lacquer. Cogswel was superior.
by far, in the base running and made
its first tally by working the squeeze
play. In the sixth inning two more
runs were scored when two or
three of the Lick men stopped to argue
the fine points of the game among
themselves. The Cogswell runners did
not seem interested In the debate and
tended strictly to business. Cogswell
has won every game this season and
now has percentage of 1000. The

The California lacrosse association is
now prepared to open its season and
on May 10 the ball viii be set rolling
when two games take place. The San
jose and Olympic teams win open the
season at San Jose and the Reliance Of
Oakland and the San Mateos will get
together at San Mateo- Numerically
the league is stronger tI.is year than
last, as the San Jose team makes its
first appearance in lacrosse circles this
year. The Garden City team has Sc
cured excellent grounds for the season
and Is confident of securing sufficient
patronage to make the game a financial
success in San Jose. The former Oak
land team has reorganized under the
name of the Reliance club and has
added to Its membership several of the
best players in the association football
league The San Mateo team is prac-
tically the same as last year and that
is saying whole lot for the country
club. considering that 1t won the cham
pionship last year practically under
double wraps. Under the leadership
OF Fred Lynch and Charles Mimic the
Olympics OF this city expect to make
a great showing and with the advent
of several new men the optimism seems
well founded.
AS officially announced the teams in
the competition will line up in the
coming series as follows:
