The Bankers league will play their
second games of the season this aIter-
noon on the various Southern Callfor-
mia diamonds. The article of ball put
up by the First Nationol and the Ma
tional Bank of California In playing a
tie ten-inning game shows that there
is some classy material connected with
this organization. Knowles and Wit
mer, the opposing pitchers, are consld-
cred to be two of the best mound ar
lists in the Saturday afternoon ranks,
and no doubt will give the other bank
clubs in the league a hard run Tor
pennant honors.
The game last Saturday between the
German Americans and the Farmers
and Merchants resulted in the largest
score of the day. The former scored
the unlucky thirteen, while the Farm
ers and Merchants sent one over the

Expected to Be

three games with it's closest con-

starting May on the Long Beach
diamond
Polytechnic has shown it's ability In
the past, both in the Interscholastic
and out-of-town high school games
and owing to the fact thatgthe pennant
hangs on this contest, it was agreed
by both faculties to play three games
The game, with Long Beach's
premier slabster, Enloe, on the mound
and Tompkins and Porter opposing
him, should develop into fast battle
as these athletes are considered to
rank among the best in high school
circles. ~
A large following is expected to
watch these contests. The teams OF
both schools have been indulging in
hard practice and each says 1t will
carry away the honors.
On the days set for Poly to go to
Long Beach arrangements will be
made by Coach John Brewer to charter
a special train SO that the expense will
not be burdensome on students. The
officials of the Pacific Electric always
have granted special rates to other
baseball teams to out-of-town resorts
where a large number is guaranteed,
and no trouble is expected in securing
