LOS ANGELES BOXERS
TO GO TO SAN DIEGO
TWO MATCHES ARRANGED FOR
NEXT WEEK
Jimmy Austin to Stand Against Red
Corbett and Mike Kutchos
Against Fanny Marshall
at Southern City

Two fighters of Los Angeles will go
to San Diego next month to compete
against some of the pugilists of the
southern city. at the Bay City club.
Jimmy Austin will go UP against Red
Corbett of San Diego over the twenty
round route. Mike Kutchos will go
against Fanny Marshall of the same
city for the same limit of rounds.
Manager Frank Fields is endeavor-
ing to find a hall suitable for the
fights, but SO far has not secured one.
The agreements have been signed by
the fighters with the understanding
that the battles take place early next
month, the dates to be set later.
These two fights will attract more
attention than any held at San Diego
for some time. Red Corbett has all
ways won by the knockout blow, but
the hackers of Austin think that there
is no danger of their man going out
for the count of ten, as he is a high
class fighter.
Frank Kutchos will find a classy boy
in Fanny Marshall as this little fell
low is away above the average and
is the kind who always is in the game
from the sound of the gong until the
final round.

SANTA MONICA GIRLS
DEFEAT OLIVE TEAM

The girls baseball team of the Santa
Monica high school which receitly de-
feated the girls of the Polytechnic high
scool, were the victors yesterday over
the girls of the Olive Street grammar
school from Los Angeles, who lost to
the Los Angeles high school last Tues
day through the unfairness Of the UNI
pire. The score was II to 8.
Santa Monica is one of the strongest
aggregations of girls in the state, and
beside having a swimming club are
out to challenge any preparatory club
in the southwest. In all probability in
the course of a few more weeks will
accept the challenge which has been
received by Miss Dorothy Swensen,
manager of the Los Angeles high school
swimming club team. The game yes
terday was exciting from start to finish,
Notwithstanding the fact that the Santa
Monicans were stronger with the will
low than their opponents from the
Angel city.
In the last of the third inning the
Olive street maidens took a batting
rally and before the seasiders could re-
cover from their fright two home runs
were made by the losers one by Miss
Ferguson and the other by Miss Grace
Smelling. The Santa Monicas, not to
be outdone by their opponents, sent
Miss Gail Hurlburt second baseman,
to the plate with instructions to send
the large sphere out, and to show her
ability as a batter she sent the ball
over right field garden for home run
for her team.
A large and enthusiastic crowd was
present and continual applause greeted
the feature plays of both teams.

STANFORD TRACK MEN
TO ENTER ELK RACES
Meeting to Be Held by AntIered Herd
in Los Angeles in July Will
Be of Unusual ln-
terest

George Braden, who is chairman of
the registration committee of the P.
A. A., and who has charge of the biz
A. A. U. meet which will be held in
Los Angeles during Ellls' week, has
received word from Captain Horton
of the Stanford track team that the
Stanford team will participate in the
big meet, which promises to be of
as much Importance as the A. A. u.
meet which will be held at Seattle
during the summer.
The Stanford team will compete in
the Western Conference meet, to be
held in Chicago June 15, and will
spend the time between these two
meets in Los Angeles. Braden has
received assurances that the Indian
long distance runners from the gov
eminent school at Phoenix, A. T., will
participate in the races. Mr.. Braden
believes there is a possibility of de-
veloping another Longboat among the
Indian runners.
A change has been made in the
program of the meet. The Marathon
race and the wrestling championships
win be held Monday, and the track
and field events Wednesday.

A. A. u. BASEBALL
BOARD WILL MEET
PLANNED TO ESTABLISH TWO
DIVISIONS
Commission Will Make 1t Possible for
School Athletes to Play in
Sunday Afternoon
Games

Chairman oliver Best of the A. A. U.
baseball commission. which was re-
Gently appointed by President G. b.
Raitt of the Southern California
branch of the A. A. u, will call his
committee together at o'clock Tues
day afternoon at the Fairgrounds
headquarters in the city hall. The
members of the committee are oliver
Best of the Echo park playground,
John Brewer of Polytechnic high
school, DR.. Beach OF Los Angeles high
school. j. Johnston of the Euclid
Heights baseball team and Red Per-
l1ins.
The object of this commission is to
place amateur baseball on an equal
standing among all the high school
and college players in Southern Cali
fornia, so that they can participate IN
Sunday afternoon games without jeop-
ardizing their amateur standing in
their college and school ranks.
Chairman Best is we'll pleased with
the movement and says that it will be
a good plan to organize two divisions
to be classed junior and senior division.
In San Francisco the A. A. u. has two
amateur baseball leagues throughout
the winter and summer. and the mer-
chants of the north derive much pub
licity in the various papers by the use
OF I0elf names.
Coach John Brewer and DR.. Beach
are also in favor of this plan and say
it will be a good thing for the school
children and the older folks of Los
Angeles to participate in the national
pastine during the summer.
A student of Polytechnic, in speak
ing of the new amateur baseball
league, said he was in favor of it, pro-
viding the commission would forget
the past and look at the future. When
asked what he meant by this remark
he said he was under the impression
that if student played against a
professional in the past his
faults would never be forgiven. From
the talk of the commission the student
in question is at fault, for at the re-
cent meeting of the general body, it is
understood, it washed the slate clean
and let everybody who desires to Join
or form a team to apply for card.

Through Ranks of Stu

''Will the seniors of Polytechnic high

the same SCHOOL," was asked yester-
day afternoon in the dressing room.
Say, do you think the big chief
(meaning Principal ]. H. Francis) can
bend 'em over after his long ride across
the ocean from Europe" asked Little

year.
'Why, of course he cam" piped for
mer Captain Monk Pierce; IAN let me
whisper to you, he is there with the big
drop, too; and when one of you fellows
go up to the pan you will think it is
one of Admiral Dewey's cannonballs

ooh, go way back and pinch your
self" said Brooks Tompkins, pitcher
on the first team. Senior AS have
not got chance to win, for l dreamed
last night Coach John Brewer was go
ing to give the decision to his fellow
teachers, and that youf wouldn't have
look in"
Mary Pierce, left fielder, was there
with his little say, and said that one
of the pros told him no matter what
the score read the public would never
learn the true score.
"Oh is that SOP" inquired Kelley Nc

Coach Brewer of the baseball team,
when asked what chances he thought
senior A had of winning, said: Il am
happy to see the boys working so hard
in their practice games. Somebody told
me this afternoon L was going to cheat
for the teachers. Well, you can say
for me this is all rot, and the sooner the
senior AS get this notion out of their
heads the better it will be for them"
At any rate, the game should be a
warm diamond battle from start to fin
ish, and great interest is being taken,
both by the students and faculty. over
