round White scored so hard and often
that he had Barnes hanging on and
won the decision.
kutchos Wins Decision
Eddie Robinsons Jap, Young Togo,
and Mike Kutchos were the following
performers. The Jap and the Greek
made a queer appearance as they
stripped and shook hands. The crowd
called upon Mike to fight, and he ell
deavored to respond in the first round.
Mike bored in for the orientars wind,
which Togo disliked, but kept coming
in. They tusseled head-to-head around
the ring, their heads almost touching
the floor in clinches. Mike caught the
Jap going backward and sent him off
his feet for a second. The Jap re-
taliated and the second round was even.
The lads faced each other shoulder-to-
shoulder in the third and slugged out
the round. Mike dropped Togo an
instant as they separated from a clinch.
The Jap took all of Michaels offerings
gamely, coming back for more. The
Jap started to rush things in the fourth,
but Mike waited and countered hard.
Togo stung Kutchos with two hard
lefts at the bell in this round, but it
was a slow period. Mike started to get
funny, but Togo stopped it by swinging
him to the ropes with several stiff
whelmed the Jap but could not put him
out Had he possessed as much of
punch as gameness and ability to stand
a walloping he would have made
whipped Greek out of his opponent.
5ell=Coneo Fiasco
Congo Coon and Kid Bell came next,
taking the place of frankie Sullivan
and Johnny Hugo for a siX-rounder.
The men We're supposed to fight. 1t
suffices to say that neither tried, slap
ping with open gloves. 1t was poor
exhibition, and the fight was stopped
and the men thrown out of the ring
for failure to make a showing.
SteeDle Jack Martin and Willie Mack
went on for the SiX-round final bout.
The Steeple's reputation as a 'Whiz'
brought the fans to a state of eX-
pectantcy of a few sensations in this
meeting The tall steeple, who is
street car motorman, doomed up head
and shoulders above his adversary. He
hammered Mack all around the ring
with right and left short swings in
the opening of the first round.
Mack woke UP after a moment of this
kind of milling, and sailed in, poking
Steeple so hard on the point and in
an afflicted eye that the lengthy lad
was in Queer alley in a moment. At
the ropes they swung back and forth,
and Steeple quickly went groggy from
the battering he received. Toward the
end of the round Mack dropped the
car man with a hard right. Referee
Eyton began counting, and Mack went
to his corner for instructions, While
Steeple crouched on the floor Steepie
arose after the count of ten and wanted
to continue, but Eyton motioned him
to his corner. The boy stayed down
moment too long.

MCCreQle showed dQnlfdpl6 nerve III
sticking in the game a few moments
after being hit with a swift ball at
the plate. Those who heard the crack
of the ball as it struck the Beaver
managers head expected to find him
unconscious. He will feel the effects
of the accident today.
Unless the Portland team is checked
in their voluble swearing on the dia
mond some decisive action should be
taken. The Coast league games are
not exhibitions of Bowery classics, but
are expected to produce clean baseball.
Bert Delmas put through one of the
most sensational plays of the season
when he made a wonderful running
backhanded catch of CARROTS ground
err tossing 1t backhanded to Howard,
and forcing Armbruster at second. The
catch and throw were executed with
the precision and judgment of machin-
cry.
Ort was thrown out of the game and
plastered with a flyer fine in the fifth
inning. He hollered to Mccarthy over
some unknown grievance. He had just
thrown out Daley at first, and the
jumps decision had been in his favor,
so Mccarthy is still trying to figure
out what caused Ort's outbreak.
It looked as if a free-for-all was due
in the sixth, when after Willet and
Smith had mixed it, members of both
teams rushed from the bench, bats in
hand, to participate. Mccarthy effec-
tually quelled the incipient fight by
sending the offenders to the bench.
Breen made a fine double out unas-
sisted in the eighth, catching Wheeler's
liner and doubling Howard at second
Not a run was brought in by the
Angels that was earned off hits, all
the scores coming on errors by the Wis
itors, and the double steal by Beall
and Daley.

The score of yesterdays game was
one-sided, because the winners were
more experienced both in their fielding

games there was considerable wrang-

hands full in keeping order among the
pupils.
Owing to two costly errors made by
the winners, two runs We're scored by
the losers LaVelle, catcher for the
Custer Avenue school, was the small

was no other catcher he was compelled
to get behind the bat. Heskell, pitcher
for the winners, was affected in ali

better delivery than his opponent, Ben

president J. CAL EWING, our
Weakened brother who holds
Il the chair in the Pacific Coast
league, will now have a final oppor-
tunity to demonstrate to the fans on
the coast whether he possesses a spirit
of fairness or is so stubbornly devoted
to the McCredie band wagon that he
cannot give d just decision. With the
throwing out of the two players, Smith
and -Willet, from the game yesterday
and the coming submission of re-
port of the incident from Umpire Nc
Carthy, Ewing will find the settlement
of the matter placed directly up to him.
1t remains to be demonstrated whether
he will have the backbone to punish
the guilty parties or will smooth over
the matter as he did the outrageous
Olson affair. The local fans do not eX-
pect Jud Smith to be eXonerated. In
fact he should be punished for strlk-
ing another player during the progress
of a game, no matter what the provo
cation; but they do look to Ewing
to settle some penalty on the men, and
emphatically discourage repetition OF
these rowdy tactics. If Ewing allows
this matter to be hushed up he should
be drummed out of the Coast league
camp, for it is due directly to his re-
fusal to take action on previous oc-
casion that the present encounter came
up. A heavy hand laid on the Portland
ers when the spiking of Captain Dill
Ion occurred would unquestionably
have been the means of preventing
such disgraceful proceeding as that
of yesterday.
George Rose, who arrived in this city
yesterday and will remain over Sunday,
going thence to the Salt Lake race
track where he will remain a few days
prior to trip to New York to look
over the racing situation in the east, is
not all eXuberant over the prospects
for racing next year at Santa Anita
While Rose is, of course, hopeful that
the Baldwin plant will reopen, he is by
no means optimistic and will not COM
NIT himself in the matter. The local
race track followers, of whom barely
bakers dozen remain on the ground,
have turned their attention toward the
rapidly shaping plans for the Tia
Juana race project, which seems des-
tined to supplant the Santa Anita meet
ing at the western winter gathering.
Rose is also somewhat interested, but
is merely looking the ground over
without making any statements. That
there is any significance in his appear
ance in the south, just at the time
when wild rumors of reopening of
Santa Anita are being spread, is de-
MED by Mr.. Rose, who states that he
merely dropped in on his way west
ward.
