FERRIS "NIGHTINEE"
PROMISES SUCCESS
Great Interest In Night Baseball Game
Between Seals and Angels-5oost-
ers VIII Benefit from the
Unique Affair

Saturday night at Chutes park will
be a real Dick Ferris night. The CIV
ing of this title to this particular Sat
urday evening is because Dick will
then introduce into Los Angeles an
event the predecessors of which have
sent the baseball fans of the east wild
with enthusiasm. Dick has planned
a lot of things in the way of amuse-
ment for Los Angeles, but never any
thing that possessed quite as broad a
novelty as baseball game by electric
light,
This game win be no exhibition, but
will be played absolutely upon its mer-
it's, the two competing teams being tha
old rivals, San Francisco and Los An
geles. The entire field of Chutes park
will be brilliantly illuminated by means
of special electrical equipment and for
once night will be absolutely turned
into day in Southern California. Under
any circumstances the game Will pos"
sess a novelty which will attract every
person who is at all interested in the
national game, and should it prove
successful 1t will mean the inagura-
ton of a series of these "Nightinees"
to be held from time TO time during
the winter season.
One of the advertisements published
in connection with the proposition
states that "Dick will get all the glory
and the Elks White Squadron drill
corps will get all the money" This
is a fact, for Dick has planned this
whole thing in order to assist the White
Squadron in materially increasing their
Boosters fund, which is expended by
this body in advertising and boosting
the city of Los Angeles.
Under the promised conditions there
will he full value for everybody in an
interesting game of baseball under
peculiar circumstances, and it is prob
able that Chutes park will be packed
from bleachers to grandstand.
Special arrangements are being made
for the accommodation of women so
that they may be we'll cared for in
watching this contest between the
southern and northern teams, played
under the glare of artificial light.
The lights were tried out last night
at Chutes park, and were found to be
entirely satisfactory. Posts have been
installed all around the field. and huge
arc lights with rehectors will be used.

HEYpLER REJECTS PROTEST

NEW YORK, Oct. 7.-President Hey
dler, of the National League, has re-
jected the protest of the Brooklyns
to the game played with Chicago in
Brooklyn on September 3. This game
resulted in a Chicago victory by a
score of 10 to 4, eight of Chicagos
runs being scored in the ninth inning.
President Heydler finds merit in
Brooklyn's contention that the umpire
should have stopped the game at the
tim epreviously agreed upon by the
managers of the two teams, but he does
not feel justified in throwing out the
championship game and altering the
standings of the clubs involved.
The umpires report showed the
Brooklyn club had adopted dilatory
tactics when it was in danger of being
beaten.

REVISED ENTRY P0RT0LA
BLANKS ISSUED NOW
Changes in Plans for Portola Week in
Northern City and Small Cars
Seek Special Contest

The revised official entry blanks for
the Portola road race contests in Ala
media county on Saturday, October %,
were issued by Chairman L. p. Lowe
of the race committee of the Automo-
bile Club of California. The only new
feature of the blanks is the changing
of the cylinder displacement classifi-
cation and the official number of the
events.
Event No. 1 is now for stock chassis
cars having a piston displacement of
231 to 450 cubic inches and minimum
weight of 2100 pounds, The cars in
this race will cover about 80 miles,
making seven laps of the course. The
first prize is $500.
Event No. 2 is for stock chassis cars
with piston displacement of from 450
to 800 cubic inches and minimum
weight of 2400 pounds. The distance Is
215 miles and the first prize is $1,000.
Event No. is virtually a free-for-all.
For it are eligible racing cars and cars
having a piston displacement Of more
than 600 cubic inches, and is also open
to cars which have regularly qualified
for either of the other two events. The
cars will make twelve laps OF the
course, covering about 25S miles. The
first prize in this race is to be cash or
gold plate to the value of $4,000.
Manager w. L. Hughson, of the Stan
dard Motor Car company is still anx-
ious to get one of his small Fords into
the Portofa race, and yesterday he ad-
dressed the following letter to Chair
man Lowe of the race committee:
According to the entry blanks OF
the Portola race cars of less than 23l-
inch cylinder displacement VIII not be
able to run. While I realize that the
idea of making the main cylinder dis
placement as high as possible in order
to insure as high horsepower machine
in the race as possible. I also wish to
say that we are very anxious to put
small car in the race. We do not know
how this can be arranged other than
by making an event of short distance
for low-powered machines, such as
the Ford.
"The Ford cylinder displacement is
1853 inches, and IL an event could be adj
ded to the list already mentioned In
your entry blank in which our cars
together with several other small ma
chimes which I know are anxious to
take part, 1 think the event would
prove a very interesting one to the
spectators If it could be arranged to
have the race on the same day as th7
big event and at the same time not
Interfere with the running of the big
cars. 1 am sure you would confer
favor on several of the agents OF small
cars by making this addition to your
regular entry blank"

KErcHEL GIVEN CHANCE

NEW YORK, Oct 1.-The delay of
the Ketchel- johnson fight until Oc-
tober 16, together with reports of
Ketchers condition and his training
methods, has materially affected the
betting here on the fight.
A week ago Ketchel was considered
only a / to 5 chance, but now bets are
being recorded in which supporters
are compelled to give for 10. Not a
great amount of money has appeared
here vet on the event, but there S a
very large sum ready to be wagered
when more definite news comes from
The coast. The east apparently is TAX
ing more interest in the fight than in
any other for a long time and it is
probable that it win be overshadowed
only by the Jeffries- Johnson fight.

cadlIIao,s Perfect Score

The Cadillac Thirty has been
awarded the only perfect score in the
Kansas City Stars 7S0-mile endurance
run and the silver trophy cup in class
A.
Perfect road scores were plenty, there
being FIVE cars to which the officials
observers had given absolutely clean
states. Examination by a technical
committee was necessary to determine
which car should take the prize, and
this careful scrutiny of the Cadillac
failed to reveal one defect or cause for
even one-tenth of a point penalization.
The Cadillac's closest competitor had a
demerit mark of 81 points.

"UNGRAMMATICAL" is
BASIS OF ATTACK ON
ANTI-RACE TRACK BILL

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1.-THE closing
brief OF former Judge Carroll Cook, sub
mitted in the district court today in be-
half of Frank Oshea, whose trial is
test case of the anti-race track bill en-
acted at the last session of the legis-
lature, attacks the bill on the novel
ground that it is ungrammatical.
The first charge is that one sentence
in the act is thirty lines in length and
so involved and complex as to be unin-
telligible, and the second alleges dis
elimination in favor of a man with a
good memory, since only men using
books, papers, ETC., in taking bets are
barred by the new law.
