GOOD. BALL GAMES
ARE SCHEDULED
FOR TODAY
By WILL SCARLET

Today will be marked by unusual
activity in Catholic athletic circles. The
Redwoods Of Santa Clara and the Col
legians of st. Mary's have game
scheduled for 12:45 p. m. on st. Mary's
diamond. At its conclusion the fourth
teams of the Catholic colIeges-the
Victors of St Mary's and the Angelus
OF Santa Clara-wilI engage in a dia-
mond tussle which promises to be an
exceptionally fine exhibition of base
ball. At $3.50 p. m. St. Peters school
will meet ST. Patricks school at the
Ocean Shore grounds. At the same
hour St. Joseph's Institute and st.
Mary's school viii compete in the Oak
land branch of the tournament at
Freeman's park
The CoIlegians- Redwood game is, of
course the headliner on the program.
The rivalry between these two teams
is IS keen as that existing between St.
Mary's Phoenix and the Santa Clara
varsity. and the rooters of both col
legeS may be relied upon to bring the
choicest variety of college spirit to the
st. Mary's bleachers- The issue of the
contest is in doubt, as the teams have
never before crossed bats with each
other and have rarely, If ever, played
the same outside nine.
The Collegians Will line up as fol-
lows: Benefit or sheehy, pitcher; Smith,
base; Diavila- second base; Dunigan,
third base; Miller, shortstop; Grayson,
left field; Hughes, center field; Sheehy
or Benefit, right field; Reardon, sub
stitute.
The Couegians-R Redwood game will
precede the Victors- -Angelus game on
the diamond of the Oakland college.
The double header necessitates the first
game starting at 1915 in order that
the Santa Clara students may be able
to take the $50 train home.
The Angelus team of Santa Clara
has made an enviable reputation for
itself at the southern college and
hopes TO best the Nictors as decisively
as the Santa Clara varsity bested the
Phoenix. The Nictors hold the Alameda
county championship for 115 pound
Following is the victors lineup: Be
han, pitcher; Spicer, catcher; Haines,
first base; Magee, second base; Horan.
shortstop; Norton. captain and third
base; Young, left ield. Alexander, right
field; Ryan. center field. Myers, Budd
and McClatchy, substitutes.
The &. :. A. L. game at the Ocean
Shore grounds today between St PAT
ricks school and st. Peters is certain
TO be largely attended. Neither of
these teams has been playing for some
time, owing 10 the eccentricity of the
schedule and z week of enforced idle
ness while the circus was in town, and
both mines are anxious to creep a
notch or two higher in the percentage
list. So far as standing goes the
schools are almost evenly matched,
St Patricks having lost only one game
out Of two, and st. Peters winning
two out of three.
The Oakland tournament is drawing
rapidly to a close, but three games
more being required TO terminate the
series. The ST. Mary's school players
will have their last opportunity this
afternoon TO move up from the tail
of the procession of the Alameda
county mines. The Josephites have
made considerable Improvement since
the day they lost to the East Oakland
team and are determined to give a
creditabie account of themselves in
todays conflict.
The players from ST. Mary's school
line up as follows: keenan, or Feeley.
pitcher: Prefontaine. catcher; Calvin,
first base: Ahern, second base; Cox,
third base: Feeley or keenan,, short
stop: Barclay. right field; Evans, left
field; Lyons, center field.
