FAVOR ANNEXATION
AT EAST HOLLYWOOD
Motion to Postpone Movement Until
Good Roads Funds Are Dis
tributed Lost by Big
Vote

The recent action of the East Holly
wood Improvement association, in Vot-
ing for the annexation of that suburb
to Los Angeles, was indorsed unani
mously at meeting held in Hqegee
hall, Vermont and Prospect avenues,
East Hollywood, last night. A motion
to postpone the annexation movement
until the good roads funds have been
distributed was lost by a vote of 80 to
20. The latter question was the cause
of a long discussion i'm which Arthur
Let's participated, speaking in favor
of postponement 1t was pointed out
that practically all the good roads
contracts have been let and that the
East Hollywood citizens have assur-
ance that they will receive the full
quota of highway Improvement to
which they are entitled.
Petitions for the annexation of the
suburb were circulated In Los Angeles
yesterday and. the friends of the move

Guilty in bringing about the union with
Los Angeles. They admit there is still
an opposition to the plan, but this
they hope easily to overcome by a
vigorous campaign which they have

OCCIDENTALS.W WILL
MEET M'CORMlCKS
TO PLAY CHRISTMAS DAY AT
CHUTES PARK
Both Managers Confident of Victory
Last Time Teams clashed the
Game Resulted in No
Run Tie

Chutes baseball park will be the
scene of real exhibition of the ma
tional game Christmas day, when the
McCormicks and the Occidentals will
make a second effort to decide who is
who in the local baseball world. Last
THANKSGIVING day, when these two
teams elashed, the game was called in
the fifth inning when neither side had
been able to cross the rubber.
1T will so to the finish this time"
declared Manager White yesterday,
''and when the grand total of the score
columns are struck, you can take 1T
from me. the balance will be in favor
of the colored champions"
Mccormick thinks otherwise, and
when the two managers were making
final arrangements for the game he
happened to drop the following re-
mark within hearing distance of Man
ager White: I'VE are going to get the
Occidental goat Christmas day. and
after the game we will stake it out to
Craze in the alley back of this pool
ROOM"
Huh! Mister Mccormick, that goat
of ours is not stake broke, and further
more I don't propose to have it exist
on cobblestone and pavement" retorted
White.
As the relative merits of the players
on the two teams was discussed by the
managers, both of whom considered
that they had the class in local ball
dom, it was decided to include field
events with the ball game and thus
settle the supremacy in the sprints and
the heaving.
Manager White declared he would
match Pettus and Langford against
anything that Mccormick could pro-
duce. The latter manager seemed to
fight a little shy of this proposition and
proposed to make the meet a little
more general.
1t Is probable that Harris. Clark,
Newell and Pittman will represent the
McCormicks in the throwing and
sprinting events.
Manager White concluded that Pettus
and Langford would be sufficient to
handle McCormicks entries. But it
is probable that all members of the
two teams will be entered in the diff
ferent events
