ATHLETICS

idea that continuous baseball will not
prove financial success in Los Ange-
les should get rid of that notion. AL
ready the rivalry between Berry and
Hogan, and, incidentally, between the
two teams, is becoming intense, and
the rival managers are claiming the
pennant with much confidence. Hogan
leaves for Frisco tomorrow and says
that if he fails to pick UP enough good
players to insure a successful flag con-
tender next season he will go on east
and pick up some good playing mate
rial. Happy says that if the club will
give him the necessary financial sup
port he will produce a pennant winner
the first season. And he knows a win
ming team when he sees one, too.
That he will have no trouble in get
ting all the good players he needs is
proved by the big mail which he re-
ceives every day. His mail yesterday
consisted of about 100 pieces, and was
supplemented by not a few kilograms
all from players wanting jobs. There
are more good ball players than jobs
these days, and Hogan undoubtedly
will aggregate a bunch that will cause
Hen to sit up and take notice Of real
competition for the first time since he
entered baseball.
With the managers and clubs fighting
in dead earnest for the leadership, the
fans most certainly will get into the
fray, and the enthusiasm that will feat
ure the season never was known here
tofore in the southland. Factions,
friendly, of course, are bound to result,
and these factions will be healthppro-
moters of the sport and make continu-
Gus baseball here an assured and profit
able fact. Each team will have its
army Of rooters and both factions will
be on duty at all games. 1t is a most
pleasing prospect that the sudden
change in conditions has produced.

Noted WieIder Of Racquet Plans to
Enter Other Championship Con-
tests and May Compete
at Wimbledon

Miss May Sutton, recognized as one
of the greatest tennis players that has
ever been developed among women, is
planning to go east this spring to play
in the national championship tourna-
ment which will be held at Wissahick-
on Heights, near Philadelphia, early
in June.
Miss Sutton for several years has not
competed for the championship of the
United States, but has played for the
worlds championship, winning this
great honor twice.
1t is possible Miss Sutton may decide
to go to England this year to play in
the Wimbledon contests for the world S
championship again.
Miss Sutton plans to play in the
Niagara -the-Lake tournament for
the Canadian championship this sum-
mer, but will not enter the Tri-State
championship at Cincinnati. She has
won the Tri-State honors and has $3.50
silver trophy cup to serve as a remind
er Of her skill at the courts in Cincin-
natl.
The little champion has won the Can
adian cup twice and the United States
championship once.
If Miss Sutton goes east she will re-
turn in time to play in the coast cham
pionShip contests at Del Monte. Miss
Sutton and her sisters, Mrs. B. 0.
Bruce and Miss Florence, will partici-
pate in the fifth annual tournament of
the Coronado club February II, Is, 10,
20 and 22 Last year Miss Sutton won
the woman's championship in the sin
giles for the third time in succession,
and holds as her personal property the

championship. Mrs. Bruce and Tom
Bundy won the double honors last sum-
mer.

COMPUTE RELATIVE STANDING
OF SMALL BOATS
Eight Contests Are Included in Deter.
mination Of Official Percentages
OF Craft with Leg-o'-Mutton
Sails

AS the winter yachting season ad-
vances the shippers Of dory boats are
beginning to figure up scores and to de-
termine their relative standing. The
tickle averages bob about, first one boat
being in the lead and then another.
Four official races have now been
held. Each racing day two contests
are sailed. This makes a total of eight
races to be counted in computing the
average standing Of each boat.
The boats which looked like sure
winners at the beginning Of the season
are now dropping to the rear and
others are taking the lead. At present
the tussle is between the Little Mischief
IL and the Red Fox for first place. IT
is too soon, however, to begin to figure
on the final outcome. The boats which
have the lowest standing at the present
time have chance to pull up to the
lead.
The following is the percentage stand
ing of the six boats which took part in
the races Of last Sunday:

The Red Fox had the lead up to last
Sunday when the score shifted for
nearly all the boats. The Doris has not
taken part in the last few races.

NXCELLENT sport resulted yester-
III day at Santa Anita because the
- track was fast and high-class
horses were allowed to go to the post
to contend for the honors. With q
continuation of the pleasant weather
and improving track conditions today
even better sport should result. The
feature of a most attractive card will
be the San Fernando handicap. at
seven furlongs, in which Montgomery
Dandelion, Magazine, Vox Populi and
halket all of proved class, will start
The secondary feature will be the long
race, in which First Peep, Vesme
Niblick, St. Kilda, Ivanhoe, l.. G. Wild
rig and Paul L are to be the conten-
ders. The third race, at one mile
also should prove attractive, as Rapid
Water Dennis Stafford, Duke OF
Bridgewater, Financier The Thorn
Monvina, J. c. Glenn, Harcourt, Adora-
tion, Alma Boy and Capt Burnett
will start. The entire card is an i'm
provement over the good Offering OF
yesterday and the fields are ideal in
size and evenly balanced in every way
Charlie Lercari, one of the Frisco
fight promoters, last night closed ne
gotiations over the long distance tele-
which southern scrappers will appear
in the principal points. Two 15-round
bouts make up a double-header and
will bring together Jimmy Walsh and
Jimmy Reagan at bantam weights,
and Dick Hyland and Lew Powell at
lightweights. A six-round preliminary
between Terry Mustain and Ollie Cor
nett will be staged as the curtain
raiser. Eddie Keevin made the
matches over the long distance phone
and all will go north this evening on
the Owl.
Hen Berry says that the new club
should be known as the Outlaws -
and that name may be applied to them,
despite their protests. Hen says that
Freddie Maier and Harry Lelande
Jumped" from the Angels to the other
club and therefore are outlaws. They
are the kind of outlaws that will win
the support of the fans, however, as
they are the right kind Of sportsmen to
begin with. Happy Hogan, the former
Angel catcher, who will be the manager
of the new club, is nearly as good in a
kidding" bee as is Berry, and every
time they meet there is a bundle of
fireworks turned loose that drives away
the 'blues" without an effort.
James Carruthers, grain broker, di-
rector Of the Montreal JockeyFclub and
formerly associated with Alex Shields
in the ownership of one of the great
est racing stables in the history of the
American turf, is visiting in Los An

to Frisco to take a steamer for the
orient He met many old friends among
the horsemen and racing officials at
Santa Anita yesterday. He will go to
Frisco tomorrow or Thursday and will
sail for Japan next Saturday. Advance
