Gregg scrap that the two shows are
billed for the same night.
English is a scrapper Of good class
and will give a. good account of himself,
while Gregg is pronounced by Howard
Baker to be the toughest scrapper he
ever tackled. This should mean that
the San Berdoo fans will witness a rat.
Ting good bout. It is sufficiently at
tractive TO local fans to insure q good
attendance from here only for the
counter local attraction. It seems to
be the misfortune of the San Berdoo
and San Pedro clubs to clash with the
local club dates, and as a remedy for
this state of affairs it is suggested that
both these suburban clubs in future
arrange their cards for Wednesday or
Thursday nights, abandoning Tuesday
and Friday nights in favor of local
clubs that have occupied these nights
exclusively, almost, for several years.
In this way there never would be a
clash in dates and the outside clubs
would profit in the attendance Of dele
cations from Los Angeles.
Three bouts make up the card for
| Thursday night that Manager Billy
Burk has arranged for the White City
Athletic club show at Arcadia. The
main event will be a ten-round session
in which Kid Sheridan Of Chicago will
meet Squirrel Jones of New York for
| $3.50 side bet. Willie O'Keefe and
Kid Brady will meet at six rounds in
the semi -windup and Phil Riley and
Jockey Marcado will go on for four
rounds in the curtain raiser. DaI Haw-
kins, formerly one Of the greatest light
weights in the world, but now retired.

1t is to- the credit of the Arcadia club
that at all of the many boxing shows
that have been pulled off out there this
winter the management of the clubs
has preserved the best of order and
| conducted its shows in a manner that
has contributed as much as any other
one thing to the excellent success at

shows and has exhibited unusual abil-

SANTA MONICA STARS

Fcresters Of Los Angeles Lose Contest
Full of Errors and RepIete
with Kicks Against
Umpires

SANTA MONICA, Feb. 14.-The
Santa Monica Stars won long drawn
cut game from the Foresters of Los
Angeles at the Tenth street grounds
this afternoon, landing the winnine
run in the last part of the eleventh in
ming.
While the Foresters are the hest
team that the locals have been against
this season, they did not play in their
usual form, and threw away the game
time after time. Many errors and a
vast amount of kicking were the feat
ures of the contest, which narrowly
escaped ending in a fight in the tenth
inning.
Dickson of the home team took ex-
ceptlon to decision of Umpire Broad
VINO called man out at the home
plate, and he started to cross the field
with the apparent intention of DOING
up the umpire. Dickson's teammates
Jumped on his back and held him until
he cooled off.
While Umpire Delhi concurred in the
decision Of his colleague, most of this
spectators claimed the man was safe
and made many unpleasant comments
on the game, but the decision of the
umpires was allowed to stand and the
game proceeded until the eleventh in
ming, when a run by Russell made the
score to 6, in favor of the home team

New York Giants, was dispelled
when Merkle signed a contract for an
other year with the New York cluo.
The contract contained a handsome in
crease in salary over last season.
So confident is John J. McGraw, man
ager of the New York National league
team, that the Giants will win the pen
nant this coming season that it is said
he is willing to wager all or any part
of $4,000 that the team will carry off
the flag. He bases his hopes on the
addition of Schlei, Murray and Ray
mond t the team.
The Cubs, owing to lack of harmony,
he believes, will be crippled, and he
thinks Pittsburg will dispose of them
in easy fashion. McGraw is confident
he can whip Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago
or any other team that carries off the
American league flag.
Gill, the Pirates first basemGn last
season, who played an errorless game,
has gone back to the minors. If he
could hit little bit he would be a
wonder.
Charley COmiSkey laughs at Jones'
statement that he wants to play ball
as much as possible because he fears
he won't last much longer "Good
many years left in Fielder YETI says
old Roman.
Rube Marquard is going to be put
through special course of training.
Evidently he can't fight we'll enough to
suit McGraw.
Comiskey's frantic efforts to get an
other outfielder gives one the impress
sion that the ultimatum of one f.
Jones carries more weight than the
ordinary midwinter bluff.
Josh DeVere is one of the fattest
men playing ball, and also one of the
smallest. The Giants originally got
him from the Cotton States league, and
his year in the eastern has made him
OF big league caliber.
Jimmy Burk, manager of the Louis
vile club, has returned his contract
to George Tebeau. Tebeau calls for
$500 for Burk to continue as Louis
Ville,s Ves manager. He also demands
$4,000, which is the same figure Charley
Carr gets in Indianapolis.
Lee Tannehill, the clever third base
man of the White Sox, has fully re-
covered his health and says that he
VIII play in his old-time form the com.
ing season. He hasn't been really
himself for couple of seasons. OWING
to injuries; but when he is right he
compares favorably with any third
corner man in the country. He has
already signed his contract. which
makes the worries of President Connis-
key one less, as it was thought that
Tan" might give up the game this
season.

l have been asked several times dur

suggest that every manager send in
their telephone number on a postal
card, so that 1 can keep a record of
them. The Herald will run these
numbers, as they have made several
changes in both the Home and Sunset
numbers.
The Belvidere team desires to hear
from the Covina team in regard to a
game for next Sunday.
AS a result of having his foot frozen
while attending funeral some time

signed to play with Newark of the
Eastern league. Last season he was
manager of the Toronto team.
Charles Comiskey is to buy perma-
nent training grounds for the White
Sox in Texas. They probably will be
near Ell PasO and be used first in the
spring of 1910.
Pitcher Elmer Steele of the Boston
Americans is a bridgebuilder by occu-
patton. The crack twirler swings a
hammer on trestle about 200 feet
above the Hudson river. He says it is
great work, and he will report in the
spring as hard as rock and without

signed for the coming season.
Catcher Jimmy Byrnes Of last sea-
sons Sacramento State league club
has affixed his signature to a contract
to play with Charley Graham's club in
the Pacific Coast league during the
1909 season.
Ralph Willis Of the Seals has not
signed his contract yet because he
thinks he ought to have more money
His 1909 contract calls for more than
he received the year before, but in spite
of that Ralph wants an additional
boost.
Jack O'Connell, the popular umpire
of the Coast league last season, is un-
decided as to his plans for the coming
year. He has offers from the big
leagues of the east, but he is not anx-
ious to leave this city with his family
He may, however, decide to accept a
berth, as the offers made to him have
been liberal.
Pat O'Connor, the little catcher who
more than made good at the end Of
last season, has sent his contract signed
to the Pirates.
All talk that Fred Merkle, the Toledo
member of the New York Giants, whose
failure to touch second base lost his

possibly the worlds championship last
season, would go to the st. Louis Ma
