HIGH SCHOOL CANDIDATES TURN
OUT FOR FIRST RUGBY PRACTICE

is remembered by many sood 10y ,
All tore off his left glove and exhlpiteu
a swollen hand, saying he nad prohe 7l
il in the second round There were
some few at ringside who were ~
clined to doubt this statement, ascIlp-
ing the flash by Al to an attempt 10
excuse his defeat. But Emmick Is not
made of that sort of mettle. He is a
game loser and only showed his manu-
to let it be known to his friends that
there was a good reason for his fallure
to measure UP to their expectations.
Emmicks hand was so badly crlppIeu
that he was treated at receiving hoSpl-
tai Yesterday and when the surgeons
examined the knucl<les under the a.
ray it was found that he was sufterlhg
from a fracture of the metacarpyl bone
of the left hand just above the khuckle
of the first finger. The break was
clearly visible under the X-ray. Or.
Cook set the fracture and placed the
hand in a splint. AL will be forced TO
keen away from the mitt department OF
his profession for several weeks. EN-
mick authorized the statement that ne
is very DESTROYS of return match ana
is willing to give Danny substantial
side bet. A second meeting between
these boys would draw a big crowd,
after their whirlwind exhibition.
Now for a long pull, strong pull
and a pull altogether San Francisco
and Los Angeles, the two leading teams
in the Coast league have each won a
game of the series for which both
teams are fighting hard, victory in a
decisive manner meaning a big boost
in the pennant climb. With the two
top teams playing some of the classiest
ball the fans have witnessed In many
a month, there is every reason why
they should be given all the encourage
ment at the disposal or the local en-
thusiasts. Henry Berry surely deserves
every ounce of support that can be
uncovered. Frank Dillon deserves
likewise. So does every man on the
Angel lineup. The Champions are not
always winning to be sure. nor would
ninety ine fans out of hundred de-
sire the race to become runaway af-
fair, as was that of last season. but
they are playing the most consistent
game of any team in the league. This
is one of the most stirring series in
the schedule. 1t is a nose and nose run,
and not a fan should miss the leaders
in action. Uncork your lung power,
bring out your choicest collection of
baseball language, gather in the front
row and holler all you Hike, as long as
the Angels are playing the game.
frankie Neil will have a chance to
win back his bantamweight champion
ship on June 10. He and Monte Attell
have agreed on the weight. which is to
be 116 at 10 o'clock in the morning.
The winner of this bout will have as
good a claim on the title as any of the
little fellows. Johnny Coulon has
posed as both the bantam and 105-
pound dandy. He doesn't seem to
want any of Attell's game. and there
isn't much of a chance that he will
enter into the final race for the palm.
Attell looks the best of them on form.
Neil is still full of fight at that.

oLYmPIANs HOLD MEETING

BERLIN, June 2.-The most impor-
tant act of the international council of
the Olympian games that has been in
session here was the recommendation
of the principle of an international jury
to decide the events in future Olym-
pads. The council took under consid-
Grafton the unfortunate controversies
that arose in London in 1908 and final
ly decided that it was wiser to intro
duce an international system of judg-
ing rather than leave this to the sole
control of the country where the games
take place. The council, it is explained,
did not act in spirit of criticism of
anything that happened in England;
its opinion was that the contest could
be conducted with greater good will
if they were under international con-
troll
The Swedish committee has invited
the participants in the games of 1912,
which are to be held in Stockholm, to
reside in Sweden during the period of
training should they desire to do so.

ATHLETICS

h EGINNINC this afternoon, all To-
II cal games on the Chutes and YER
- non diamonds in the afternoon
will be called at 3 o'clock with the sin
gle exception of the Sunday afternoon
game, which will be started at the
usual hour, 2:S0. Two of the fastest
organizations among the coasters,
working with a speedy and hustling lit
tie umpire, Jimmy Toman, are grind
ing away daily at Chutes, but their
games are not as brief as might be
looked for, despite that few long in
nings have delayed proceedings. The
reason for this is plain. The intense
heat of the afternoon sun blazing
down on the bare diamond has natural
ly slowed up the players. In fact, one
of the San Francisco men had to leave
the game Tuesday through fear of be-
ing overcome by the heat. Therefore in
order to safeguard the health of the
teams as well as accommodate the pub
lie by holding the game during the
cooler hours, the commencement of all
weekday games was decided for one
half hour backward. This is effective
until further notice.
Word was received by the Pacific
Athletic club yesterday from Tom
Jones, manager of Ad Wolgast who
is stopping at Hotel Bartholdi, New
York, that the little Milwaukee feather
weight has arranged three short bat
ties to take place in the east
this month, and after his third en-
gagement he will leave at once
for Los Angeles in order to be on the
ground to prepare for the coming SEES
sion with Battling Nelson, scheduled
for July II. Jones states that Wolgast
will be perfectly willing, nay, glad, to
meet the Battler, and he countered the
offer of the Pacific with new terms.
The local club wired back another an
swer, and McCarey expects the bout to
receive official sanction today by the
reception of a confirmatory telegram
from Jones.
Wolgast will box Tommy Langdon,
a Philadelphia lightweight, June D.,
over the six-round distance at the city
of Quakerly love. On June Ad will
meet Brooklyn Tommy Murphy at
Boston in a twelve-round battle rms
date had been arranged with Matty
Baldwin provided he beat Murphy, but
the latter came out victorious in their
meeting a couple of night ago, and thus
Murphy will be his opponent. After
this match Wolgast and Jones will
return to Philadelphia, where AID
will meet Tommy O'Toole on June 10.
Then will come the return trip to the
western country. Jones writes that Ad
is feeling bright and clipper and has
regained his former confidence.
without detracting one iota from the
credit Danny Webster deserves for his
victory over Al Emmick, the San Fran
cisco boy, Tuesday night, In their ten
round Maud session, Emmick must he
given all praise for putting up one of
the gamest uphill contests seen in the
Junction ring for many a day. After

Los Angeles high school. notwith-
standing the fact that the students
have been playing the American game
for the past four years, turned out
large squad for first Rugby football
practice yesterday afternoon on the
| Fiesta park stadium. Before the hour
scheduled for practice at least a score
of athletes appeared on the field, many
of them being members of the track
| squad. The students trotted upon the
field more appropriately attired for a
| Salome dance than a football game,
owing to the heat, and many found
severely sunburpt backs after their
days hard practice.
Philip Harrigan of this years track
team showed up well and was a consist
ent player. Teddy Giessler, captain of
this years Rugby fifteen and high
| schools fast man in the fifty and 100
yard dash, adapted himself to the new
| tactics speedily after playing the old
game for so long. Gadwood, the fast
100 and 440 yard athlete, was on the
field, and did we'll for the f. st time out.
Among the other members was Mickey
| Mcclure, who, as usual, could not re-
sist the temptation of being slightly
injured, receiving a painful wound over
| the left knee.
i 0dIOIIn9C 10 hiCliHl
Baldbridge was the most unfortunate
victim, and after making a long run
with the ball he stumbled into a pile of
lumber which was in his path and
| brought the entire team down on him.
No one was injured except Baldbridge,
who received a slightly bruised arm for
his trouble. On top of this, Rawlings,
who plays shortstop on the baseball
team received a sprained ankle and had
to be carried off the field on the back
of one of his schoolmates.
Los Angeles high schools prospects
for Rugby this season look very bright.
| The scrubs worked hard, but failed at
times to lead the ball out clean. The
back field showed up well, and will be
a hard proposition to beat this year for
speed and accuracy The backs this
season will include Giessler, Dave New
man, brother to Miller Newman, who
plays on the Polytechnic high school
| club, and who was star at the three
quarters last year for Poly.
Noble put the team through the New
zealand formation practice in the
serum, and worked the boys enthusiasts
| tically and snappily for the first time.
The back field showed up well. and in
their light attire the candidates for the
Rugby team show evidences of intelli-
| gent Interpretation of the new and con-
sequently unfamiliar style of play. 1t
Will require long and ard-.ous study to
perfect the high school players of
Southern California in Rugby, for the
open play is so radically different from
| the American game that the gridiron
veterans of the interscholastic division
are up against the problem of practical
| ly learning a new game. High schools
! fifteen will be solid and fast, and from
the results brought out in yesterdays
brief practice it is evident that when
they are drilled in the finer points and
acquire working knowledge of Rug
by the blue and white aggregation will
put. up a hard fight.

Los Angeles 4, San Francisco 3


Under the blazing June skies San
Francisco drew a blank in the Coast
league lottery yesterday, steering for
the rocks marked Defeat" being
guided thereto by the skillful banner
bearers lowering under Henry Berry
wing. There were several tacks IN
the journey of the visitors, and some
times the lucky wind veered sufficient
ly to permit the laying of a course
toward the opposite haven of victory,
but after a zigzag journey through
tempestuous hour and forty-tive min
utes the elusive champions finally drew
the leaders toward the losing point.
There was no gainsaying the Berry ag-
gregation yesterday. Alert old Captain
Dillon jumped into the fray in the
eighth, when the tide of battle started
to turn in favor of the locals, ana on
the first base coaching line urged his
men on to the effort that brought in
the winning scores.
Two or three fielding feats of note,
little ragged work and deal of hit
ting by both teams, with the stick
honors well in favor of the home team
these were the contributions in the
second game with the Seals. For al
most the first time this season a

ball player how much the support of
the bleachers means to him and he

Narrow Squeak for Locals
1t was a narrow squeak for the locals.
The northerners got away well by get
ting one run in the first, and for three
innings the Angels were BANKED,
though they found Browning easily.
Hosp had permitted Mohler to walk
in the first, had been banged by Ten
nant for a single and Bodie got an
other one, scoring the San Francisco
captain. Then he steadied down and
for four innings the bay lads made
vain efforts to locate his delivery. In
the sixth they got their two other
runs, but in the meantime the Angels
had chased in twice, and therefore
when the seventh came around the
Seals had only a one-run lead. This in
the seventh of battle between the top
h..eams fighting for first place is hardly
enough to consider a safe margin, as
Mohler found in the lucky eighth.
Howard and Smith scored in the
fourth for Los Angeles on the formers

double Mohler reached first in safety
for San Francisco in the sixth when

EASE BALL
Penn Wins From Parsons.

Parsons College, of Fairfield, may
defeat Penn College in debate, but
when 1t comes to the national game of
base ball, the Pennies have their
neighboring friends beaten to a
FRAGILE" They demonstrated this
fact to nine of the Parsons College
lads who came up from Fairfield Mon
day afternoon to cross bats with
them. The result of the contest was
to 4, in favor of the Quakers.
II was a most interesting game and
large crowd of fans assembled on
the grounds to witness the contest.
1t was exciting and exhilerating.
The cool wind burdened no ones
thought while watching the game,
as the red hair of Boies, the visiting
pitcher, reminded those on the side
lines of red hot stove.
Joe Beach, who has been twirling
the "globule" in "one old cat games
around Penn College for several
years. was placed on the firing line
by Catcher Hawk He demonstrated
that he had several mysterious curves
up his sleeve and showed his ability
as a pitcher by allowing the visitors
only six hits. He pitched a steady
game in spite of the wobbly support
given him by his team mates in the
early part of the game. 1t seemed
that the more he pitched the better
he got, and although he did not
strike out as many of his opponents
as the Parsons pitcher, he carried
off the pitching honors of the game.
The hitting of ''Honus Wagner
Schultz figured largely in winning
the game for Penn. A dark skinned,
1.-THE little player on the second bag
by the name of Williams, also assisted
Beach in winning the game by knock
ing down some hard grounders, while
Hawks work behind the bat was first
class. ... ...
