pearance. At present three clubs are
tied for first place with four points
each. and each one of these three teams
appears to be gaining in strength each
week.

and the Barbarians today promises TO
be one of the most stubbornly con
tested seen here for some time. lie

The proposed game between Los An
geles and San Francisco. 10 be played
at Del Monte on July 4 and ,. is still
in a state of uncertainty. The secre-
tary of the California cricket aSsOcia-
ton is in correspondence with the Los
Angeles club. Wilding has asked the
southerners if their offer of expenses
in the event of a local team going
south. made some time ago. still holds
good. If a favorable reply is received
to this IL is probable the association
will send a team TO Los Angeles.
A meeting of the association will be
called at an early date TO consider the
whole matter
