The $4,000 prize that goes to the winner
oil the Los. Angeles Derby. This event
will be at a mile and quarter ana
has a guaranteed value of $1,000, with
a. $4,000 guarantee to the winner.
While it will not be worth as much
in the gross as the California Derby
paid to the winner of that race, 1t VIII
have a much larger and classier Held:
1t is expected that a dozen starters Will
go to the post if the track is fast
Among the probable starters are Friend
Harry, Harrigan. Gerrymander, Sir AL
vescot, High Private, Joe Madden,
Lawton Virgins, Donald Macdonald,
Cotytto, Torbellino, DIR. Kolzberg, Lee
Rose and Fitz Herbert. High Private
is owned by F. A. Forsythe and won the
California Derby last Monday. Fitz
Herbert may not start owing to an liz
jury which is slow in healing. Derby
day always has been big day at local
race meetings and ii is believed that
it will be the day of all days this year.
Mike (Twin) Sullivan kicks in with
an explanation. He says that he did
not experience an attack of frigid feet
at New Orleans when he ran out of his
match with Harry Lewis, but that he
ascertained that the box office receipts
would hardly be sufficient to pay his
fare across the river, and he did not
feel inclined to tackle a mans job for
boys wages. He now wants one OF
the local clubs to stage the scrap. They
probably will do so-when the pro-
motors go crazy.
Another three-cushion billiard tour.
nament has been arranged by Her
Berry, to start one week from tonight
at his Hoffman parlors, and six en-
tries have been received The winner
of this tournament will play Howard
winner of the previous tournament, fol
the amateur championship of Southern
California. Howard will not be eligible
to this tournament, as the object to bC
attained is to find worthy opponent
for the playoff series with him for thu
championship. All the players whC
participated in the former tournament
will enter, and as the games in thai
series were SO close and holly contested
that good crowds attended each night
it is expected that a greater interest
will be manifested in this event.
Harry Baker is training every day
down at Venice in anticipation of get

crack scrappers in his division, anC
wants to be in condition to show at mis-
best form when he is asked to boz

Los Angeles, and match between hin
and AID Wolgast would be just the
gravy. AS Wolgast seems to be the
most likely candidate for the feather
weight championship at this time, Har.

cellent line on just what the Milwaukee
whirlwind can do when forced to fight
at his best form.

.HOGAN'S TEAM
BEATS ANGELS
.ALL-STARS WIN CLOSE GAME
BY4T0 z SCORE
ATTENDANCE LARGE, BUT NOT
UP TO EXPECTATIONS
Dolly Gray Twirls for Losers and
Shows old.Time Form, but Is
Poorly Supported at
the Bat
BY JAY DAVIDSON

The baseball season of 1909 was
opened at Chutes park yesterday after
noon when the Angel band and an all
star aggregation of league players met
in a close and highly interesting game
for the benefit of the Elks' entertain
ment fund. Cap Dillon captained tile
Angel players, while his rival, Hap
Hogan, was boss man on the job for
the All-Stars. 1t was the old rivalry
opened up afresh, and Hogan did lot
of growing after the game because MS
team won from Dillon's aggregation
by the score of to 2. The attendance
was not as large as had been antlcl-
pated, but probably 1000 persons We're
in the grand stand and bleachers dur
ing the game and made ,as much noise
as usually is dished up at the COAST
league games.
Dolly Gray, who made his farewell
appearance in Los Angeles UNIFORM
twirled for the Angels until the sixth
inning, when Tozer was substituted
Gray held the smuggling All-Stars down
to five hits, and Tozer gave them only
one, yet the Hogan gang won. Dolly
showed his usual speed and control ana
gave only one free pass, but the OPP
posing batsmen were fortunate III
punching their hits at opportune times
and managed to chase quartet across
the pan.
Griffin did the tossing for the All-Stars,
and each proved very effective at al
stages of the game, although Griffin
probably showed the best form. he Is
a member of the Seals regular twirlins
staff and seems to be right up to mid
season form now. Practically every
PLAYER on both teams is a member OF
some league club, and this was their
first real workout of the season. 1t was
apparent early in the game that all OF
them were a bit shy with their batting
eyes and were unable to hit at their
real gait.
The game was umpired by II. M
Walker of the Examiner sporting stan
and the writer, and all the bouquets
that were sent onto the diamond dur
ing the game were intended as ex-
pressions of appreciation by the vast
throng of the very excellent work OF
these officials. They set standard OF
perfection that will make the Coast
league umpires hustle to keep up with
this season, and the various encourag-
ing wells and boots from the grand
stand and bleachers during the game
attested in no uncertain manner the
distinct APPROVAL 60 by the crowd Of
the superior article of umpiratical stun
that we handed out. Very few decision
were disputed by the players, and the
game was played without any rowdy-
Ism or farcical byplays, because the
umpires had the foresight to order Hen
Berry to the bench just before time
was called. He wanted to get on the
coaching lines, but was suppressed SO
speedily and effectively that the game
took on a serious and classy nature
from the start.
Following is the result of the official
scorers work, Hamlet Oliver having
officiated in that capacity:

AT OTWITHSTANDIN that this is
IN Monday, an excellent card has
~ been dished up by Secretary
Smith for the edifcation of the regulars
at Santa Anita this afternoon. The
third, fourth and seventh races have
horses of good class as probable start
ers, and these three events will divide
the honors OF featurism for the day.
The third race is at seven furlongs and
brings out such good ones as Etnon,
Pal, Adriuche, Ida May, Hasty Agnes
and st. Elmwood, and pretty race
should result if the track continues
fast. The fourth is at mile, and Jonn
Carroll, st. Ilario, Green Seal, Edwin
T. Fryer and Tony Bonero are among
the probable starters. These horses I'M
doubtedly will make enough excitement
when they enter the stretch for the run
to the wire. A sprint at six furlongs is
the last offering of the day, ana SIX
teen speedy ones are named TO start.
Lord Nelson and Mary f., which nave
fought out many sprint duels with al
ternating results, will be among the
starters and will have Marbles, Calves,
Rosslare, Capt. Kennedy, Creston and
a host of other track burners to beat.
First time is a certainty in this race
if it is run over a fast track. 1t is an
exceptionally attractive card for an
OF day otIerlng.
Spring training for the players who
will represent Los Angeles and Vernon
in the Coast league pennant race this
year will begin today. Cap Dillon Will
line up his Angels at the Chutes this
afternoon, and Hap Hogan will trot
cut his tribe at about the same nour
over at the Vernon grounds. Both
teams will give several youngsters a
thorough tryout, and as there is some
very promising material available some
new stars may break into the game
before the season is fairly begun. The
White Sox will be on hand Friday to
start spring practice, and will divide
their time with both Coast league
teams. AS the rivalry between Dillon
and Hogan continues to grow, so do
the efforts. of each at getting together
a winning team to beat the other fell
lows team increases. 1t will be case
of the White Sox facing a desperate
situation when they play with either
team, as neither Dillon nor Hogan will
overlook a single opportunity for beat
ing the visitors Each wants to make
the best showing, and that means that
each will be fighting mad from the time
the test begins until it ends next No
vember.
Walter Little, who was knocked out
in the fourth round of his fight with
Ad Wolgast last Friday night, says
that he was suffering with la grippe
and was weak when he entered the
ring. He still believes he can whip
Wolgast, but at least wants another
chance to make good here, and will
take on any of the 12S-130 pound boys
looking for engagements. Little put up
a good fight while he lasted.
The real blue ribbon event of the
Santa Anita season will be run next
Saturday, when the classiest field of
-year-olds that ever went to the
post in any winter Derby will face the
barrier to contest for the honors and

SANTAAN SHUTS OUT
HOEGEE'S CRACK TEAM
Walter johnson, in Farewell Appear.
ance, Wins His Game by to o
Score, Displaying Major
League Form in Box

The Hoegae baseball club went to
Santa Ana yesterday afternoon and
was defeated by the celery team by the
shutout route, to 0. Walter Johnson
of the Washington Americans made
his last appearance on the Santa Ana
diamond and was in good form, strik-
ing out fourteen of the visiting players
and allowing only four hits off his de-
livery.
Gray, pitching for the Los Angeles
team, twirled a good game tanning
six and allowing the Santa Ana club
only six hits. Johnson, in the first
three innings, made seven of the SPORT
ing goods batters pound the air. Santa
Ana boys played a fast game, not an
error being recorded against them,
while the Hoegees had two misplays
chalked up in their error column.
This is the last game that the fans
of the celery belt will witness until the
Summer league is organized, which win
be within the next few weeks. Captain
Altizer will go to Cleveland this year
and will leave within few days. Mott
will report to Hap Hogan of the YER
non team of the Pacific Coast league,
while Eddie Householder will report
either to the Vernon team or go back
to Tacoma. Householder was one of
the heaviest stickers on the Santa Ana
team this winter and will be greatly
missed by the fans.

fast local man, who holds the Pacific
coast marks in the professional class.
will don the colors of the Reading
Standard people as their professional
team man, Derkum having already
given this racy looking cart a fast try
out, but no definite announcement has
been made to this effect as yet.
Jack Prince was as tickled as a
boy with a pair of copper toed boots
yesterday at the success of his efforts
in creating a world record breaking
track and was enthusiastic in his pre-
dictions of what would happen through
out the United States when the track
was formally opened and actual speed
contests began to result in the tum-
bling of all world records.
East Will Be lncreduIous
"They won't believe it," he said yes
terday, in discussing this phase of the
coming meet, when the press reports
begin to tell stories of broken records.
The eastern press will pooh-pooh these
records when they are first announced,
but I am going to be ready for them
with official sanction of the associa-
ton for the meet, with affidavits of ex-
pert stop watch timers and with the
sworn measurements of the track, so
that they will have to stand for what
ever records are made.
1.-THE season is a little short this
year to get all the cracks here for the
meet about to be pulled off, but we
will have about a dozen of the worlds
best here at that in the professional
and amateur classes, and the Pacific
coast has a lot of awfully good men
for record breaking stunts.
Manufacturers Must Get In
Next year there won't be a motor
cycle manufacturer in the world but
what will have his track team heading
for Los Angeles by the first of October,
looking for records. The local men who
are representing these manufacturers
as agents have in a few instances been
slow to get into the game because they
don't realize what Is coming off. But,
tell you, when a few of the really
wide awake manufacturers and agents
begin to shove their machines across
the tape with worlds records then the
others will realize that they have either
got to get into the game and get in
hard or stop blowing about their ma
chimes being the fastest motorcycles
built The men who buy motorcycles
are governed more than anyone real
ICES by what motorcycles can do in
speed and endurance tests on the tracks
and dealers and manufacturers will
soon wake up to what / mean when
they see the machines which have al
ready gotten into the game getting a
leading advantage through their racing
victories.
"Los Angeles is going to be carried in
the date lines of the newspapers of the
world within the next few weeks as the
place where worlds records are made
with motorcycles-you take that
from me"

ROStBEN IS OUT
OF MATCH RACE
OWNER OBJECTS TO WEIGHT
ARRAk CEMENT
SPECIAL HANDICAP FOR WEDNEs-
DAY MAY BE OFF
Trainer Weir Ordered Not to Start
Great Splinter Unless Jack Atkln
and King James Carry
More Poundage

Indications last night were extremely
favorable to calling off the Speed Hand
leap Special race that Secretary Smith
had arranged as the feature event for
Wednesday at Santa Anita, In which
Jack Atlxin, King James and Roseben
were to be the only starters. Two or
three days ago Davy Johnson. owner
of Roseben. wired Frank d. Weir,
trainer in charge of the great Splinter,
not to start Roseben In the event at the
weights announced. After talking the
matter over with Secretary Smith, Weir
/ wired Johnson Saturday night, request
ing permission to go ahead with the
race. Johnson replied that he saw no
reason why he should reconsider his
decision, and unless he does so today
the race will be called off.
Johnson objects to the weight ar
rangement. In the speed handicap
Jack Atkin carried 148 pounds, King
James had 142 pounds and Roseben
| toted 1879 pounds. In arranging tho
! Speed Handicap Special, the weights
arranged by Handicapped Smith were
Jack Atkin 100, King James 105 ana
Roseben 105 pounds. johnson says that
| he is willing to start Roseben II the
/
| cording to the imposts assigned them
in the speed handicap-that is, that Jack
AtlSin should give Roseben nine pounds
and King James should give him three
pounds. According to the present ar
rangement of weights. Roseben would
be giving Jack Atkin six pounds ana
| King James four pounds, as compared
with the way they were weighted In
the speed handicap.
While discussing the weights last
/ night a prominent horseman whose
opinion is worth something said that
If he were asked to handicap the trio
for the Speed Handicap Special he
would arrange the weights as follows;
| Jack Atkin 1876 King James ia, Rose
ben 112. This arrangement might be
criticised with some justification, but
| an equitable arrangement would be
about as follows; Jack Atkin 115, King
| James 100, Roseben 106. This would
permit the horses to get in at weights
that would%not be very troublesome TO
either and yet would adjust the weights
on the same basis as that used for the
speed handicap.
1t will be quite big disappointment
to the racegoing public Ii this event Is
| declared off, as Ii aroused an unusual
amount of interest and discussion and
all indications favored a record-break-
ing attendance. owing to the fact that
Jack Akin practically was left at the
post in the speed handicap. many pro-
| TESS to believe the result was an untrue
one. With only three starters in the
Speed Handicap Special the scale could
be lowered materially and yet furnish a
highly interesting contest and one
which would be fair test of the
sprinting abilities of the three great
horses. 1t is hoped that some plan may
! be arranged whereby the race Will be
run as scheduled.
