CALIFORNIA TENNIS EXPERT WINS
WAY IN NATIONAL RACQUET PLAY

fair opportunity would probably De
there yet
Engagements and weddings seem to
be the fashion among the coasters now
adays, and House is in the FORMER
class. Despite that he is a demon at
hat and a whirlwind in his position
afield, he is a quiet boy; but while he
was packing to go to the train yester-
day drew him out bit, and he talked
a little of his history and prospects
Considering that he is the only lndlah
playing big league ball in the west, ne
is worthy of attention ana also MS 4ui
share of credit
House next fall will return to his old
home in Oneida, Wis, and there VIII
wed the girl of his boyhood love. The
blacl<-haired boy is half German, his
mother being full German and his IA
ther a high-bred Indian of proud pedl-
gree. The lady of his choice is also
demure little German girl, whose tatner
is mayor of Oneida. Her name is MISS
Rose Hill When the blood-red In
dian summer crowns the middle west
in all its glory the little German girl
will change her name, but not her lll-
tial, and a twenty-six acre ranch VIII
be awaiting the pair. House probably
will remain in Coast league ball, now
ever, for he likes the game. johnny
has four brothers and six sisters, and
his father is large land owner of Wis
consin. His baseball record is of inter-
est.
Following three years service as
catcher for the Carlisle school team
House went to Burlington, Iowa, where
he entered professional ball. Then st.
Louis took him up, but, although he
was on their pay roll for three months,
he was given little chance to show
what he could do. st. Louis farmed
him out to Lincoln, Neb., but he was
not satisfied there and jumped to the
Fresno outlaws, from which team
Charlie Graham, who had seen his
work, grabbed him when the Senators
jumped into organized ball. He is one
of the hardest and most dependable
hitters in the Senatorial ranks and a
surer fielder never waited for the ball.
He is only "a years old, so he has a
future before him.
Los Angeles and San Francisco, the
two rivals for top place in the pennant
contention will this afternoon resume
their argument where they left off
when the Seals bore the series away
with them. The Angels play in San
Francisco, and Dillon is confident that
this is the time and the hour. In other
words, he believes the Angels will
break the long and overwhelming win
ming streak of the Mohlerites and that
the close or the week play VIII see
their positions reversed. With Henry
Berry and his orange and purple hat
on the champions bench it looks like
curtains for the leaders. But you never
can prophecy what is going to happen
in a ball game or a series.
Oakland arrived last night to play
the Vernon lads. and Hap although

ROD AND REEL
BY "RED" PERKINS

Asst Monday Percy F. Browne, who
Is connected with the Pasadena
" National bank, did q little fishing
around Colby's springs, in the Big Te-
junga, miles above Switzer's camp. He
tried in a single pool and for 100 yards
down the stream and landed twenty
eight trout of good size, including two
kingpins of the stream, each measuring
seventeen inches. One of the two big
trout had been caught once before. May
80 a party of the First National em-
ployes were at Colby's and one of them,
ster He fought him hard and long but
ster He ought him hard and long but
the fly broke, and when the trout was
taken by Browne it still carried a frag-
ment of Mr.. Wotkyns' hacSle. Browne
made a killing with the old standby,
"the barnyard hackle."
Arthur McCord, Edward Adelsack
and William Allen of Pasadena yester-
day returned from a two days fishing
trip to Rincon, where they had fair
luck. They report that the rains in the
mountains have damaged the fishing
prospects in that region to some eX-
tent.
Pasadena sportsmen are congratulat-
ing Joseph Welsh and Fred Wilcox
over their election as vice presidents of
the Los Angeles Game and Fish Pro-
tective association.
Fishing at Sierra and Mateo last Sun
day was reported good and several
large catches of corbina were made.
Among the party which left last Sun
day and stayed until Monday were as
follows; r. H. Williams, who caught

ATHLETICS

| NHARLES KIDDO DALTON, the
irrepressible and undismayed local
~ lightweight, has a main event
match on. Charles Kiddo has been
telegraphed by a promoter that he is
signed for fight for July 8, and It's
a main event at that. Also it will go
twenty rounds, and on the big holiday
the Spaghetti lad viii pose as one of
the main eventers of the country. Dal-
ton received a wire last night from
the Denver Athletic club, offering him
match with Muggsy Schools, the in
termountain champion of the 133-
Founders and the 12S-pounders, and re-
garded as about the toughest piece of
| fighting kindling in the region of the
! peak with snow everlasting. The
Denver fans in fact think he will whip
Dalton to a fragile, perhaps even to
strings of spaghetti, but lots of high
class men have said the same about
the dark-haired local boy and Dalton S
roughness and gameness has convinced
| them that somewhere, something had
somehow slipped a cog or two. The
promoters have guaranteed the men a
purse of $500, which makes nice bit
for the boy If he wins Muggsy Schools
somehow has an unfamiliar sound.

of the pugilistic world are known, but
however that may be, this Muggsy
person will have to produce a wallop
and a big bundle of gameness or it
will be flights out" for the pride of
the middle west But to get down to
cases for a moment, Dalton wishes it
announced that if Uncle Tom McCarey
wants to use him Ellzs week he will re-

Los Angeles fandom-or at least that
portion which enthuses over baseball,
and wanders daily along the well beat
en- paths toward the Chutes park dia-
mond to witness the Coast leaguers
trot through their paces-haS been TAX
en- by storm. The fans have simply
been swept off their feet by one grand
little player, and even the beloved Beall
gets little more cheering and attention
than does the new favorite. The latest
pet of the bleachers, as well as of the
patrtcians of the grand stand, Is John
House, the Indian who plays left field
for Charlie Grahams gallant aggrega-
tion which is bearing the banner of the
state capital fans with them this year
in the Coast league.
John House is one of the most phe-
nomenal f1elders at present enrolled
among the Paclf1C slope organized
hrigades. He has speed, accuracy, hit
ting ability-and yet one thing more
which is most essential, he has the
brain which marks the boundary line
between the dub and the ball player.
Houses history is unique. 1t seems to
have just dawned on the fans that
Johnny has the blood of Pocahontas in
his veins, for only within the last week
have the bleacherites taken UP the war

* BUSINESS ORGANIZATION. :.

= :
At meeting OF the Commercial club
Friday evening it was decided to elm
mate the social features, and that part
of%the furnishings, such as billiard and
pool table, etc, will be disposed of.
While at the start of the club, the
social features were taken advantage
Of to some extent, they were not taken
up gen orally by the members.
j. Richie, speaking for the pro-
posed young mems club, said that at
that time there had been raised for the
club 1925, which will possibly be
aided to to some extent. He said that if
they could get together on a price
with the Commercial club for those
things that they did not further desire,
they would like to buy them. A com
mittee composed OF L. o. Vessel. F.
a. Nelson and p. ]. Vasaly were ap-
pointed a committee in the matter.
The club moved Thursday into
larger quarters IN the city hall, which
also can be run at a greatly decreased
expense. With the elimination of the
social features the club will become a
strictly business organization, and
will be of more value than ever to the
progress OF the city and county.

WANTED A CHEAP MARRIAGE
LICENSE.

Used to getting bargains on most
ANYTHING he purchased IN Little Falls,

part of the county came to the city
Tuesday and asked for the two year
marriage license which he understood
would cost him but 81. 25, a bargain OF

marriage licenses were not sold at bar
gain prices, and for any stipulated
time, and soon departed tor home, but
not before he had assured the clerk Of
court that he would get a marriage
license what ever the cost.
