HJ HE Redondo Beach baseball team,
even if it loses the game next
Il Sunday against the Florence Gra-
hams, which, by the way, will make
strong bid for championship honors,
will have won two league pennants in
twenty-three months, which is going
some for an amateur organization.
The first pennant the Redondo aggre-
cation had the honor of winning was
the Interurban league championship
emblem, and on top of this they carried
away the silk pennant donated by the
members of the Southern State league.
The game next Sunday, no doubt, Will
be one of the best ever played IN
this organization, and the winner Will
be declared the champion team.
1t is hard to keep a live baseball man
ager down. Les Welton, who, by the
way, is one of the best press agents,
and has Ban Johnson of the big league
beaten straight, place and show, olmes
through with the announcement he has
signed two new players in Terkorn and
olson Now, one would not think much
of this notice, but as matter OF fact
Welton went to church last Sunday, and
on his way out met these two boys,
who confessed they were ball players,

spot.
The managers of the Southern State
league are working to form twelve
club league this summer But from
what Old Sol has been doing the last
few days it is not likely there will be
any Sunday baseball during the month
of August at all. This seems to be the
warmest month to the sand lot players,
and there is a possibility that they will
forget the diamond while harvest days
are on.
Manager Peter Hansen of the Thistle
baseball team has purchased a sweater,
and, to make things worse, 1t has all
the hues of the rainbow. Hansen says
he does not care how warm it may get,
he has ordered another set of uniforms,
and will have them by the opening of
the new season of Southern State
league.
Coach John Brewer will be happy in
the next few days, for he will forget
baseball at the Polytechnic high school
and go to farming among the straw
berry patches of Inglewood. Believe
me, no one could keep Brewer away
from baseball game, if he had to get
up at o'clock in the morning and walk
ten miles to witness it. No. he is not a
crank, but loves to be there just for the
fun of it.
The Redondo Beach baseball aggre-
cation will not enter a league until
next winter. From information CLEANED
yesterday the manager will play inde
pendent ball, and already several games
have been scheduled with various anna
teur clubs in Southern California and
also with the Yuma Indians.
Every hoy, child and chick knows
Scotty Allen. 1t is said Allen is think
ing of running for city councilman next
fall 1t is a safe bet to say if Allen is
elected he will try to have built large
amateur park for the amateur baseball
players, both young and old.
The Florence Grahams will have
most of the players of the Rivera club
on their team when they try conclu-
sions with the Redondo Beach team,
and, by the way, Manager Nagle will
hike to Newport Beach, where he will
try to capture several yellowtail with
rod and reel. How about it, George?
The Sunday school baseball league
will start playing ball today and din
ner will be served.
The Los Angeles Athletic club wants
a game for tomorrow. Call up Jay
Welton at F6746 before o'clock.
The Alhambra baseball team desires
a game for this afternoon, and will
hang up a IS gold piece for the team
winning the contest. Call Parker Dear
jr., at Alhambra So for further infor-
nation.
Los Angeles Giants (colored) will try
conclusions with the Orange baseball
