DEFEAT WHITE Sox BY SCORE
OF To4
REGRET AT DEPARTURE OF THE
cHIcAeoANs
Visitors Have Won Affection of Local
Fans During Their Stay of
Two Weeks-Appreciate
Hospitality

Two brass bands with but single
! thought, that of drowning out each
others sounds. aided and abetted by a
holiday throng of lusty throated fans,
helped the Angels defeat the White Sox
yesterday by the score of to and
assisted in a fitting close of the series
OF games between the two teams.
Those famous 10000 trumpets have no
more harmonious discords to their
credit than were made to order, while
the frenzied bleacherites waited, oy
Joe Farrelrs imported orchestra ana
Jim Jeffries ve-son-noise-rendi-
tioners in support of their favored
clubs. Who couldn't win with this
heartrending backing? Every specta-
tor that sweltered il the bleacher sun
or sat tensely erect in the grand STAND
went to the Acres to see the Colts win
even If it did cost sore throat; ana IL
their expectations had not materialized
we'll there would have at least been
an awful scene.
And still. amid the healthy rivalry
sincere regret was evident at the de-
parture of the strange team whlch mas
won the affection of local fans in two
short weeks, and which signalized its
public leave-taking by quitting the
field yesterday afternoon. Many fare
wells and wishes of good luck were ex-
tended to the Sox by the crowds which
overran the diamond after the last in
ming.
With Greater Hospitality
In their dressing rooms. the Chicago
ans agreed with one accord that Los
| Angeles fans in particular and southern
California people in general nave
! treated them with far more hospitality
than they have customarily received
in other sections of the country where
the training season has been spent
But it is all over now and the tale OF
how it happened will make more inter-
esting reading. The Tourists passed
I'D their first chance to mar the plack-
board in exactly four minutes. ONeh
forgot about Bernie Bernard's failing
of grabbing everything for blocks
around his territory and dropped one
in centerfield which went the way OF
all that land in Bernard's garden. Us
teen was more fortunate and got away
with a single. Kitty Brashear prlcked
ND his ears when he heard Hart's drive
coming and doubled the batter and Os-
teen without assistance.
Bernard stepped up first for the An
gels and waited until four culls gave
him his base permit. Oakes sent MN
rejoicing another lap with a nice little
bunt sacrifice AMI Bernard capered to
the pan while Dillon was dying on
grounder, Mos. to Anderson.
Two apiece was the record OF the
second. Big Jawn Anderson plugged
the left field fence with a double.
Fiene slipped an easy bounce to
Wheeler, but the third baseman had
lost the location of the bag and Ander-
son chased to the final corner of the
triangle while Dillon was recovering
the ball.
His First Error
Oakes contributed his first error by
dropping La Jeune's fly, which gave
Anderson the clearance signal and
boosted Fiene to second. Purteil
bunted out Hogan to Dillon. weaver
bunted to Gray and Fiene was naooed
at the plate. Delmas failed to cover
the middle station in time to head
Weaver off on a steal and La Jeune
came home while Bernard was running
the horsehide down in the back yard.
Most struck out.
The Angels finished making theirs
quicker, but they made them just the
same. Wheeler stood still until the
fourth flaw sent him to free rest ana
Ellis waltzed him clear around the cir
cult a moment later with three-sacker
over Fiene's shoulder. Delmas followed
with semi-bunt out of Osteen's reacn'
letting Rube eros the rubber. Delmas
brought about his own end in stealing
second and Hogan and Gray famed.
The Sox added one more to their
string in the first half of the fourth,
which was instigated mostly by La
Jeune's triple. Fiene popped to Brash-
ear and Ellis could do nothing with a
long fly from the Frenchman after
hard run. Purtell walked and stole
second. Cakes redeemed his error or
the second inning by making one
handed circus catch of near double by
Weaver. La Jeune came home on the
throw in and Purtell was caught asleep
at his post.
