FAST EXHIBITION OF COLLEGE
TEAMS AT CLAREMONT
Two Bad Innings Bring Victory to
the Country Aggregation, Who
Hit Local Pitchers Freely.
Score Is II to

CLAREMONT, May 10-The blue
and white cinched the intercollegiate
championship on Alumni field this
afternoon by defeating U. S. c. in an
IL to 4 score in one of the fastest games
ever witnessed here. The contest was
a big league exhibition of the national
game at times and aroused great en-.
thusiasm in the rooters.
U. S. C. was the first at bat and
started things with a rush. After
Craig had allowed Trotter and Cross
man to walk the Congregationalist
forces felt somewhat discouraged.
Reed famed, Burek advanced the men
on bases a peg with an easy single
sack hit. Cooney drove a swift liner
out over left field, bringing in Trotter
and Crossman and making second base
home on a double by Wirsching, who
died on second base.
After the first inning the Congrega-
tionalists had no trouble in finding
Crossman, and Trotter went into the
pitchers box in the last half of the
third inning. Graf and Mahoney found
him for triples. the little second base
man coming in for the high batting
average of the day-four hits out of

Craig after the first inning pitched a
star game, allowing in all but seven
hits in the nine innings. Crossman al

MARATHON ENTRANTS
MAKE RUN TO VENICE

The great Marathon race billed to
come off next Saturday afternoon at
Fiesta Stadium promises to be very
classy affair, for the reason that not
in the history of the state have so
many men been carefully conditioned
by skilled trainers. They have been
taught the proper stride, proper
diet, and each man is thoroughly ia
miliar with just what is expected of
him.
Saturday the international Marathon
race in New York went long ways
to prove how thoroughly that the great
sport has established itself on the
Atlantic coast. There is something
peculiarly fascinating about Marathon
races. Men dragging themselves along
after nature had cried out for a well
earned rest-they fall in death-like
faints-their handlers dash ice water
in their faces, after which they pull
themselves together and plod along
on their weary way. No wonder the
great race has survived almost every
other known sport. 1t has been re-
Vived after centuries because of that
one reason-that it brings out every
thing that is in a man and no athletic
contest ever participated in has tended
to rouse an aL -ience to such pitch
of uncomfortable enthusiasm as the
Marathons, over the regulation dis
lance.
Yesterday morning four of the en-
tries in the next Marathon ran to
Venice for the sole purpose of gaining
some idea of how they compared with
runners who participated i'll the Los
Angeles to-Venice race. Every man
was in perfect condition and seemed
fully equal to it, The starters were
Low, Rainier. Condy and "Kiddy Kit
suse," the little Jap. While the men
were followed in an automobile Lows
time was SO minutes and 80 seconds.
Rainier finished but three or four feet
behind him and the Jap was but a
scant yard behind Rainier and running
apparently as strong as when he start
ed Condy was about twenty yards
behind the Jap and all seemed to finish
perfectly fresh. AS a matter of fact,
some of them said they thought they
could return in almost the same time.

ESTABLISHES REST
CURE INSTITUTION
Former Assistant of Famous Muldoon,
Who Treated Roosevelt, Fits
Up Quarters in Los
Angeles

Through the earnest efforts of sew
eral prominent citizens who wish to
have a rest cure" established in the
vicinity of Los Angeles, over which a
recognized expert should preside, Prof.
J. F. Robertson, formerly of Hoboken,
n. j., has arranged to open physical
culture home where patients to linn
tied extent will be treated.
Mr.. Robertson lived in California a
few years ago and is noted as the for
mer amateur welterweight champion of
the Pacific coast. He is probably one
of the most highly developed men for
his weight on the coast, and having
put years into the business is capable
Of placing his clients into the best pos
sible physical condition.
For years Mr.. Robertson was asso-
ciated with Muldoon at Stamford, CT,
where he aided some of the most prom
inent men in America, among them
being former President Roosevelt. He
was also connected with the DR.. Saw
age institute in New York, where he
was considered one of the most skillful
physical culture demonstrators in
America.
Professor Robertson is young, and
at his home city is favorably known,
being a member of several lodges,
prominent among them being the Elks.
He has secured quarters at 2621 Mag
nolia avenue, Los Angeles, and will
open his institute June / at the latest.
He is already booking clients and with
in a few days will have had all the
patients he can handle at one time. as
he will not overcrowd. his capacity and
refuses to permit others to help him.
Mr.. Robertson expects soon to enter
the roped arena in order to show what
a man trained to a nicely and not fol-
lowing the professional prize fight
game can accomplish against men who
have no other avocation. He leaves
tomorrow for San Francisco to make
contracts with several Bay city citi-
zens who wish to take exercise with
Muldoon's former assistant.

STOPS CHASE OF HAREs

CHICAGO, May 10.-Just as the mem
bers of Cheltenham Kennel club were
preparing to loose the hounds for a
chase after hares in Windsor Parl
their sport was stopped by Mrs. L. F
Young, an officer of the Anti-Cruelty
society.
Previously Mrs. Young had visited
the South Chicago police station and
complained to Lieutenant Smith.
I'll take the officers down there If
you will stop the cruel chase" she
said.
With two other policemen the lieu
tenant got into her automobile and
went to the scene of the chase. Lieu
tenant Smith told the Kennel club
members that it was against the law
to hold the chase, and it would not be
allowed
