HOGAN'S TEAM
FIRST MATCH TO BE HELD
WITH PROFESSIONALS
Game VIII Take Place at South Side
Athletic Clubs Grounds
Next Tuesday In
Vernon

Arrangements were made yesterday
afternoon by Representative MeAleer
Of the Los Angeles Polytechnic high
school baseball team to play the YER
non team at South Side Athletic club
Tuesday next, starting at 3:15 o'clock.
Polytechnic, although not expecting TO
defeat the professionals, will no doubt
give a good account OF herself, as she
has been putting up strong article of
ball in the 1nterscholastic County
league. Both the first and second team
of the Washington street institution
will be seen in the lineup against the
Vernon club, while on the other hand
Manager Captain Hap" Hogan will
try out all his material. as in the ST.
Vincents contest.
For the Washington street school
Porter. Terry, Tompkins and Carcirle
will go on the mound, while Price VIII
act as catcher. Bryan will be first
base; Bibo second base; Monk
Pierce, shortstop; McAleer, left field;
Terry, third base; Mary" Pierce,
right field and Sebastian. center field.
The Vernon club will line up as fol-
lows: Haley shortstop; Sturgeon,
right field; Martinke, left field; Bra
shear. first base; Mott, third base;
ond base; Hogan, Kinkel and Goliath,
catchers; Coy, Shafer and Hensling,
pitchers.
This will be the first time in the
history of the Washington street team
that it will have lined up against really
classy ball players and no doubt the
boys will learn many fine points from
the old timers.
A small admission fee will be charged
at the gate to defray the expense Of
the students journey from their insti-
tuition to the South Side Athletic club
diamond.

ID OUCH riding tactics by jockeys
X, serve to put racing in disrepute
~ with the patronizing public, and
the Santa Anita judiciary very prop
erly is going after the offenders with
a sharp stick. The exhibition given
yesterday in the Derby race marred
the enjoyment of the crowd for the re-
mainder of the afternoon, and the news
that the judges had dealt out severe
penalties to the offenders was we'll re-
ceived in all quarters. Because many
believe that an untrue result obtained
by reason of these foul tactics there is
a general demand for a Derby Re
newal race, in which the same field and
at the same weights will meet over the
same distance, and since f. A. For
sythe, owner of High Private, yester-
day proposed such race and prom
Used to keep High Private here to start
in it there is an excellent prospect that
the race will be put on. Joe Madden
Is a crack racer and q colt of great
class and speed, but, regardless of his
chances to beat High Private, the pa
irons of the sport will have keen in
terest in the renewal event If 1t is put
on, and the attendance will be mate
rally greater than that which wit
messed the Derby race yesterday. Hill
dreth is one of the gamest sportsmen
on the turf and undoubtedly will be as
anxious as Forsythe to have the re-
newal race arranged
Jockey Schilling seems to have
plunged into a big bundle of trouble all
at once. The judges announced yes
terday afternoon that this crack rider
had been suspended indefinitely "for
rough riding in the Derby race and for
other suspicious rides" Evidently the
offenses or offenses with which Schill-
ing is charged extend back into other
days than yesterday, and this decree
iustifies the rumors of the last two or
three days to the effect that Schilling' S
rides lately were under investigation.
Martin Hebron, the crack bantam
who recently arrived from Goldfield, is
finding great difficulty in persuading
boys in the bantam and feather divi-
sion to talk seriously of fighting him.
He seems to have made a powerful
impression upon them by his quick
victory over AL Fellows the other
night This Heron kid is some classy
lighter, as his three victories over
Eddie Menney indicate, and local fans
want to see him given a thorough try
out here. He bears the earmarks of
a near champion and should be given
an opportunity to prove or disprove
his class.
Jimmy Austin has interested some
wealthy friends in his pugilistic career
and one, a prominent bookmaker at
Santa Anita, said yesterday that he
would back Jimmy to the extent of a
$3.50 side bet for scrap with Kid
Cleveland or any other of the local
105-110- Founders. Jimmy is training
lightly and will be ready on short no.
tice to make the effort of his life,
Mel Lawrence, II. A. Unruh and Tom
Cooke returned yesterday from Frisco,
where they attended the funeral of
"Llucky" Baldwin. Cooke shipped the
Emeryville division of the Baldwin
string to Santa Anita early last week.
No disposition of the Baldwin horses
has been decided upon and they may
be raced throughout the season.

SWEDISH RUNNER
RECORD BREAKER
Svanberg Has Turned Professional
Since Olympic Games in Lem
don and Races for the
Simoleons

NEW YORK, March with a
string of records that make the best
American figures look sick, jain F.
Svanberg, the Swedish professional
runner, has arrived here.
Svanberg can run any distance from
one mile to the tWenty-siX and frac-
ton that make up the London Ma
ration distance. At the shorter dis
tances, however, he is not so good that
several of the local amateurs-Trube,
White, Collins and Sullivan, for ex-
ample-could not beat him. But above
three miles he is a wonder.
Most Of the records were made while
he was still an amateur, and are as
follows: One thousand five hundred
meters, All; one mile, 4:24 5000 meters
q miles 1888 YARDS, 15131a, a worlds
record; four miles, 1850 2-5; five
miles. 24:S7; 10000 meters C miles 376
yards), 1880; ten miles, 1883; 10000
meters az miles 1852 yards), logic;
$4,000 meters (1S miles 234 yards
1854 %: $4,000 meters (22 miles 694
yards), 2:15:54.
Since he turned pro shortly after the
Olympic games at London last sum-
mer Svanberg ran five miles in
24:312-5 Shrubs best record for the
distance is accepted by the Swedish au-
thorities, however, because none of the
official timers held their watches on
the race.
For some years Svanberg was one OF
the greatest distance men in Europe
At Athens he finished second to Sher-
ring in the Marathon, and at the Lon
don Olympic was eighth in the race
won by Hayes after running second tc
Voight in the five-mile. Svanberg was
far from being at his best at that time
Still Voight was forced to do the dis

the sport has been attacked in the
last two or three years.
A. II. Harlin, prize press booster of
the outlaw State league and editor of
the Stockton Independent, left for home
this morning after visit of ten days
in the south. His sister has been seri-
ously i'll for several days, and he came
to visit her, remaining until she had
shown sufficient Improvement to justify
the belief that she has passed the dan
ger period in her illness. Harlin for
rnerly was employed by local papers
and Is we'll acquainted here. He is
about of the same build as Hen Berry,
and as much of "llidder," and since
he is on the other side of the baseball
fence, he and Hen had a lovely time
last night trying to bull" each other.
Harlin says that the outlaws will go
into Sacramento and Los Angeles next
year and rout the Coast league clubs:
Same old talk same old laugh, and
probably the same old result.
