Notes of the Games

Beall showed yesterday that he is
becoming accustomed to his surround
ings and is just rounding into readi-
ness to show his true class. He lined
out a hard double in the afternoon
game and ran bases like a hend, keep
ing the Vernon pitcher on edge while
on the diamond. The tall Chicagoan
shows signs of more class than has
been seen around these diggings in
many month
Happy Hogan had his throwing arm
with him yesterday and lined long
shoots to second, saving a stolen base
twice. He never lost a chance to in
ject ginger into his men. To this VIM
producing ability of Haps must be
laid more than one victory.
Dillon brought the bleachers to their
feet in the eighth by making a one
handed grab of Motifs stiff swat over
first. This evened him up for Motifs
long running catch of his foul to the
left field bleachers in the second
Truck Eagan was out of the game
both morning and afternoon, being
somewhat indisposed, as is said of
heiresses and stars. Graham took his
place.
The cushion throwing after the game
occurred again yesterday afternoon,
even after the warning signs had been
posted. A special officer will be
placed on the field to stop this dan
gerous habit of the roughnecks.

AMATEUR PLAYERS
SECURE NEW BERTHS
Several Changes viii Occur in Lineup
of Southern League Teams
and Fast Men Will
Move

Two of the fastest amateur baseball
players will depart from Los Angeles
for new berths during the next few
days. Pitcher Enloe of the Long Beach
high school will leave about the first
of June for Cananea, where he will
twirl for team of that city and work
in the copper mills. Enloe has made
a good record for himself while twirling
in the Interscholastic league, placing
column and holding the lead by
eight games. 'Pinkey'' Grindle, form
erly catcher of the Redondo club lead
ers and one of the fastest amateurs in
the teams of the Southern State
league, winning the pennant In the
lnterurban league, will leave the latter
part of the month for Portland, his
new berth.
Myers, who formerly twirled for the
Long Beach team in the Southern
State league, may be given an oppor-
tunity to make good" on the Los An
geles team. Captain Dillon had two of
his friends looking over Myers as he
was pitching for the Maier team yes
terday against the Mccormick club,
and it will depend upon the report
these people make as to tn possibility
of Myers joining the Angels next sea-
son.
Myers is said to be a fast southpaw,
and If given a chance should make
good in classier company.
Shute, the fast little sprinter and
baseball player, is reported to have
said that he will return to the Uni
versity of Southern California this
fall. Shute has played for several
months with the ST. Vincents college
team
