Native Son Team Plans a
BarnstOrm Trip
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call


CINCINNATI. o., Aug. dick Egan,
the star California boy who is holding
down second base for the Reds, is plan
ming to form an All California team
from the players of the National and
American leagues and to make trip
to the coast with them at the conclu-
sion of the season. Egan figures on
some Is to 20 players. He has spoken
to many of them already and they all
seem delighted with the prospects.
Egan viii have none save native son"
tossers on his lineup
For pitchers he may get overall of
the champion club; Raleigh, the young
ster sold to the st. Louis Nationals the
other day; Dolly Gray of Washington,
Krause of the Athletics and Bill Burns
of the White Sox. In the infeld. be-
sides himself, Egan is after Chase of
the Highlanders and Frank Chance, the
great leader of the Champions, who
has half promised TO make the trip.
Behind the bat Egan has Easterly of
Cleveland and Bliss of the Cardinals
spotted, while in the outfeld he hopes
to land Ellis of the Cardinals, Heine
Heitmuller of the Athletics and Buck
Freeman of Washington.
This would make a strong aggrega-
ton of talent, capable of holding ITS
own against any team in the country.

Bundy and Sinsabaugh
Beat New York Cracks
Win One Match. and Then Split Sets With
Champion Larned and Wrenn
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

WHITE PLAINS, N. Y, Aug. 7.-on
the turf court at the Knollwood coun-
try club today Thomas c. Bundy and
Simpson M. Sinsabaugh, the California
pair in the first round, met and defeated
the new combination of Frederick c.
Inman, the metropolitan champion, and
George o. Wagner, the Buffalo expert,
3-6, So, 6-4- The Californians then
faced William A. Larned and Robert ID.
Wrenn and divided sets with them.
Bundy and Sinsabaugh captured the
first rather handily at Ga, only to lose
the next, 6-3. They were five all in
the third when darkness stopped the
contest. The remaining California
Texas combination. Melville III. Long
and Harvey M. McQuiston, are coupled
with Alexander and Hackett:
Such an arrangement of the pairs at
this time gives strength to the idea
that prevails that the Pacific coast
players are being tried out with view
to placing one or more of their number
upon the American international chal-
lengfng team for the Davis cup matches
All of the men were in fine form to-
day and their work pleased a large
gallery. Bundy and Sinsabaugh have
improved greatly since their first ap-
pearance, and seemed to be overcom-
ing Larned and Wrenn when their
match was stopped. Champion Larned
was not at his best. He repeatedly
missed short shots and altogether gave
the impression that he had gone back
ward.
In order to get some much needed
practice, James and Sinsabaugh met
Niles and Dabney in exhibition match
in which the pairs split sets. The
remaining match of the tournament will
be decided tomorrow as the majority
of the players move on to the Meadow
club courts at Southampton, Long
Island, Monday.

Baseball Notes

The Oakland fans want to see Boice and Brack.
enridge in action across the bay this morning
and 1t is likely that they will work. These men
gave great exhibition Of pitching on Tuesday
afternoon.
Pitcher Ralph Willis Of the Seals returned
from Harbin springs yesterday afternoon much
Willis is anxious to get back into the game
again and Manager Long probably viii send him
away with tile team when ii goes south next
week With i've pitchers in shape the Seals
surely ought TO be able to get by
Kelly found his batting eye for fair yesterday
and laced out single and double. He had
luck with his last hit opening the ninth with a
nice drive to right. Lewis followed with an
other pretty one, but Kelly ran into it while be
was tearing to second and he was out This was
tough. for Oakland might possibly have started
good batting rally then.
By winning yesterday the Seals have made 1t
an even break with Portland. anyhow. Now. II
they can get away with the game this afternoon
the series will be theirs. four games to two.
This is some playing especially away from the
home grounds and on such very hostile diamond
they have in the north. Portland has not
taken series from San Francisco this season.
Catcher Thomas and Pitcher johnson. whom
Oakland farmed out to the Helena club of the
Intermountain league, but later recalled, arrived
yesterday Both will be put to work nmedi-
atey. Thomas caught Ames, the Seals new
pitcher in several of his games in the north.
and he tells Long that Ames is a corking good
pitcher and will surely do in the Coast league.
Long will work Ames next week. provided that
he shows up good in practice.
