LAST TRIAL FOR
BASEBALL
GLORY
81. Mary'S and Santa Clara to
Decide Championship
This Afternoon
By viii Scarlet

The amateur baseball championship
or the Pacific coast will be decided
this afternoon at Luna park, San Jose,
when the teams representing st. Mary's
and Santa Clara colleges engage in the
third and final game of this years
series. In their previous encounters
on the diamond both teams have made
splendid showings. which they are de-
termined to outdo in this afternoons
tussle.
Last Saturdays defeat has quickened
the Oaklanders to adopt several radical
changes in their lineup. Correia has
been relieved and Miller taken from the
bench. Young Miller has already played
In number of Phoenix games this
year, notably in the mixup with the
chicago White Sox, and has reputa-
has not thus far appeared in any of
the st Mary's-Santa Clara games ex
cept on Saturday, when he batted once
right garden this afternoon.
The Phoenix management has decided
TO give wilcox a chance in the box.
Accordingly, frankie Hart, who twirled
in the two preceding games of the
series, will play in left field and will
head the batting list. Hart enjoys the
distinction of being an all around
Wilcox has never before faced the
Santa Clarans on the mound and hopes
to puzzle their clever stick wielders
in todays decisive battle.
The Santa Clara players are much
encouraged by Saturdays triumph and
are determined to do all in their power
TO win the coast championship this aft
ernoon. Friene, who pitched so con-
sistently in the preceding games of the
series, will again fiji the box, and the
other players will occupy the posi-
tions and follow the batting order OF
last Saturday.
Yesterday found determination and
confidence abounding in the rival
camps. We beat st. Mary's last Sat-
urday, so why can't we do ii again?'
So runs the Santa Claran expression
of views. We've already shut out
Santa Clara handily," say the Oakland, :.
ers, "and we're able and willing to do
il again. Our infield Is unchanged, our
outfield is impregnable and we. have
taken Santa Clara's measure" And
both teams cry in unison: "Just watch
US shut them outi"
The St. Mary's athletic association
has chartered a special train for San
Jose and return, which will leave Third
and Townsend streets at 1926 today.
Accommodations are thus afforded not
only to the students of the Oakland
institution, but to the friends and
alumni of both colleges. The St. Marys
special will reach San Jose in ample
time for the game, which is billed for
3 o'clock.

THREE THINGS TO
MAKE CITY SAFE
Sierra Supply, Spring Valley
Works and Fire Protection,
Says the Mayor
Taylor Urges Governor to Sign
Bill Giving Power to
Condemn Plant

letter urging Governor Gillett to
sign the bill which among other things
will give the city of San Francisco
power to condemn the plant of the
Spring Valley company and to take
it at a fair, judicially determined valu-
alton was sent to Sacramento yester-
day by Mayor Taylor. The mayor
said San Francisco needed three things
ito be as secure of the future as she
ought to be and as she must be-
ownership of Sierra water supply, of
the Spring Valley water works and of
fire protection system.
With these three we can front the
future with absolute confidence ana
security and without either one of
these we can not be as safe as a city
like San Francisco ought TO be-"
The mayors letter in full follows:
My Dear Governor Gillett: trust you will
see Your way clear to signing the bill which
Includes water works in the list of those
things which may be brought under the law
Of eminent domain. To us in San Francisco
this Is the most vital of all Governments.
In my judgment must secure, beyond
peradvenfure Sierra water supply, and we
must also secure in municipal ownership the
property or the Spring valley company. The
city, to be secure of the future as she
ought to be and she must be- should not
only own the Spring Valley water works
but the fire protection auxiliary system
which we now constructing and a Sierra
source of supply in addition. With these
three We front the future with absolute
confidence and security. and without either
one of these we can not be safe as a city
like San Francisco ought to be- If we can
not secure the Spring Valley water works
at compensation which can be agreed upon
between the city and the company We ought
certainly TO have the right of determining
the valuation In condemnation proceedings
In other words, we must In some legal way
+ or another secure the Spring Valley water
plant at a fair valuation meaning by This
valuation fair not only 10 the city but TO
the company as well. II has often been asked
why we do not seek to condemn the Sprfur
Valley. The answer is. that as the law Is
now 1t seems to be impossible. | can not
