Yesterday. Enfield sure must have
found all of his last years form TO
get away from the speedy King Cobalt.
Comedy of Errors" or horse rae
ing in California. Next act?
Bob Douglas C2:OsA), Sterling Nc
(2:O6la), The Harvester (2:06&). Jack
McKerrof1- (2:O7& and San Francisco
(2:07%) are likely to come together in
a stallion race that A. ]. Welch Will
probably give at Readville next sea-
son. Such a race will prove first-class
drawing card. AS Allen Winter
(2:0615) was foaled in 1908, he should
be Just in his prime next season, but
he will find 1t no easy task TO beat the
aboye-named horses. Both Bob Doug
las (2:06A) and The Harvester
(2:06A) should be faster, stronger, and
race better next season than they did
in 1909.
Archibald's decampment to Juarez
will take away the one fashionable
boot artist at Emeryville. Archibald
is undoubtedly the cleverest boy in the
boot at the northern track. His rec
ord for the first week vies with that
of the Millers. Notters and Dugans.
Saturday he rode in five races won
two; was beaten a head in another
and placed on the other two. Some
record.
Buddy Glass signalized his first win
on Bubbling Water when he brought
the game little brown filly down in
front of Early Tide, with Archibald up.
Glass appears to be a star in the maxi
ing. He is a good post rider and fin
ished strong. 1t was his finish which
won for the Molera and Joseph's en-
try.
Billy Cahill is conditioning President
Williams Big Chief for an early start.
The big horse seems to be fit and will
go well on a fast track.
Gene McGovern is anxious to get a
whack at some of the 116 pound boys
who are after that diamond belt. Gene
is willing to post a weight forfeit. He
probably will be staged as a prelim-
mary for the Wolgast-Picato affair on
the fourteenth. Meanwhile the pocket
edition of Boer Unholz will put in a
few strenuous days OF training at
Venice with frankie Harris and John
ny Frayne.
Won't somebody please come through
with a match for Frankie Conley I?
Wonder why Danny Webster is laying
so low?

ANGELS NEW FIELDER
BECOMES A BENEDICT
Wolf, Amid Beautiful Decorations al
the Home of His Parents, Becomes
Husband of Eastern Bride

Amid beautiful floral decorations at
the home of his parents, 3792 Vermont
avenue, Lee Wolf of the Los Angeles
Coast league baseball team was rele-
gated to the benedict ranks yesterday
evening. The bride was formerly Miss
Ethel Kelley of Maryville, Mo-, and the
wedding is the elimination of a ro-
nance begun in that city last sum-
mer when the husky groom was the
star fielder on the Maryville team.
Throughout the season when the team
played on the home grounds Miss Kel-
ley occupied the same place in the
grandstand and from her place Of
vantage would smile encouragement TO
the striving star of the home team.
When Wolf departed for the west to
try and wrest further honors in his
chosen profession on the local dia-
mond, there was an understanding be-
tween the young couple that if he were
retained in the Angel lineup for the
coming season she would come west
No wonder that Captain Dillon was
so much pleased with his new protege
Who would not make good under those
conditions?
The bride on receiving the happy
news was soon speeding westward and
was met at the station Thursday by
her soon-to-be hubby His former
manager Upton, connected with the
Tufts-Lyon company, who managed
the Pasadena team during the winter
of 1907-0S when Wolf played on the
Crown City team, saw Lee shortly af-
terward and the center fielder was just
bursting with his great secret and be-
tween shutters and giggles whispered
confdentially: "Now. swear you won't
tell the boys" Tilton held up his right
hand and was duly sworn. "Well," con-
tinued the elated one with another gig
gle "I am going to get hooked up
tonight"
Tilton kept faith and the wedding
was a quiet affair with merely a few
of the groom's relatives present.

PENNSYLVANIA TEAM AGAIN

PHILADELPHIA Dec. 1.-Philadel-
phia football enthusiasts who admire
the Michigan warriors may have at
least two more opportunities to lay
their bets for or against the chances
with Pennsylvania.
Announcement was made that Penn
sylvania would offer Michigan a two
year contract and that it would be
gladly accepted is the belief here.
The red and blue eleven has met
Michigan four times. and once was
beaten by the Michigan team. Yost,
Who will coach the westerners next

more games against Pennsylvania, and
he will be glad, it is thought, to hear
of the action of the university football

Ad Wolgast left the scene of his

stop Wolgast inside of ten rounds"
H-m-m-m-m.
Tom McCarey has come through with
little more real dope on the big mill.
The local promoter said yesterday
while waiting for the bids to be opened:
"What do l think of Jack Johnson
He's a fighter of unmistakable class
one OF lne BI6dlcSI lIdI ever llNtu
I don't believe that either Jeffries or
Johnson has ever been extended. A
good many people doubt Johnson's
gameness. 1 think he is as courageous
as the next, I make this assertion
from the fact that at one time 1 staged
a series of fights for him. He never
picked out an easy mark. Instead, he
told me to go out and get anybody.
If he was afraid, he was in a position
to demand easy ones, but he didn't.
'I have staged a good many of his
bouts and know what I'm talking
about. johnson is a Joe Cans on a
large scale. / know Jeffries very we'll
also. He lives in Los Angeles when
not on the road. And a tip that can
go for everybody is that Jeffries will
be in shape when he takes on the ne
gro. OF that l am assured as Jeffrles
is too smart to enter anything of the
kind without being prepared"
Pretty soon they will name an En-
eryville handicap after Los Angeles.
Won't that be nice? The fourth event
today looks pretty fair Remember
how Rey Hindoo grabbed second money
from Rialto in the final race at Santa
Anita last season? Well, are you
wise?
Rather slipped it to them at Juarez
