GO, 6-3 and 6-3.
The victory entities Mclaughlin and
James to compete against II. II. Hack
EFT and f. j. Alexander, national title
holders, for the championship of Amer
lea, the match to be played August II,
at Newport.
The coast champions fairly played
Pell and Grant off their feet, with the
exception of the first set. when the
young Californians seemed unable to
get into action.
The work of Mclaughlin and James
was revelation in regard to speed,
their returns going back over the net
as though the ball had been shot from
cannon. The service also was brill
liant, especially that of Mclaughlin.
Grant appeared to be the weaker mem
her of his team, and the Californians
| took advantage of this and kept him
busy much of the time
Grant and Pell won the toss and
chose to serve. Pell was the first man
to serve. Two faults were made OH
n
poor return outside the court, which
made the score 15 all. Pell then du-
plicated his first service by making two
faults on the next service. Pell failed
to return the ball, making the score
1910. Mclaughlin then smashed the
ball into the net, which gave Pel one
more chance for the game. Two more
faults, however, gave the westerners
the first game. Mclaughlin easily won
the second game, the southerners Sc
curing only one point off his service.
Grant, on his service, turned the tables
on the Californians. who drove the ball
into the net 1t was fifteen game.
James readily won his first service in
thirty game. In the fifth game Pell
partly retrieved himself for the moor
showing in the first game he served
by winning a love game The games
then alternated until it was a deuce
set, after which the southerners made
two straight games, giving them the
first set.
In the second set Mclaughlin and
James set terrific pace, and won. 60.
Ihe third set was a love game affair
Tour of the nine games resulting in
olanks for either one of the contending
teams.
In the final part OF this set the south
erners weakened and allowed McI I,ough-
I'm and James to take II, 6-3
The fourth set was even easier than
tne TWO preceding for the Californians.
aIthoush the score was 6-3. McIoueh-
I'm and James won the first four games.
Grant and Pell then annexed two
stralght, and the games then alternated
uHtll the fnal one, the ninth, which Mo
Loushlin won in whirlwind fashion ON
ms service by making it love game.

CRACK EDISON NINE
AFTER BAKERSFIELD
Local Team Has Signed Several Star
Players and viii Journey
North Confident of
Victory

The Edison baseball team Of Los An
geles has accepted the challenge OF the
Bakersfield nine, and on September .
will Journey to the northern city TO
play a three days series with the
Bakersfield nine. Whichever team wins
will probably play the San Francisco
nine for the amateur baseball chan-
pionship of California.
The local team has been greatly
strengthened by the addition of several
first class players, and George ward,
manager of the Edisons, predicts that
his nine will have but little difficulty In
bringing the northern boys into camp.
Rhuland, who will probably do the
greater part of the twirling for the
baseball circles, and has won his last
sixteen games, in but few instances
allowing more than three or four hits.
All Crack Players
Encoe, center fielder for the Edlsons,
has been offered several chances to en-
ter major league ball, but has preferred
to remain with the amateurs Encoe
is one of the greatest fielders in South
ern California at the present time, and
has not made an error during his last
three years of play Wilkinson, who
will cover the initial sack for the cleo
tricians, is another bright star of the
fielder Were this player slightly
stronger on his stick work it is moro
than likely that he would be given a
chance to join faster company. Patch,
second baseman, is a first rate fielder,
but outpoints every member of the nine
when 1t comes to slamming the horse
hide, having played his last ten games
with a batting average of $40, which
is going some for a ball player, pro-
fessional or amateur.
owen, shortstop, and Salyer, third
base, are both good men, the former
having played league ball in the east.
while the latter was once captain of
the Polytechnic high school team, and
is considered by many as being one of
the best third basemen in any of the
amateur leagues. Although Ward has
not as yet closed the contract, It is
probable that Kinkle, formerly catcher
TO the Vernon nine, will accompany
the Edisons to Bakersfield, and will be
on+he receiving end of the battery at
that city.
Interest Aroused
The Bakersfield boys, on the other
hand, have one of the strongest line
ups on the Pacific coast, and have won
their last twenty-five games. Much in
tarest has been aroused over the COM
ing SERIES which will be held Septem-
ber 4, and 6. Tt is likely that a
large delegation of fans will accom-
pany the boys on their trip, and among
them will be several of the higher of
ficials of the Edison company includ-
ing superintendent B. F. Pearson. At
Bakersfield the northern team is deemed
invincible, and the Edison boys are
looked upon as easy marks Manager
Ward has, however, one of the strong
est amateur lineups which ever filed a
diamond, and confidently predicts that
he will take at least two out of the
three games played.
