CRACK COTTON NINE
FACES STIFF GAME
Defeat Would Hurt Either Team, and
Today's Contest viii Be a
Hard-Fousht One from
Start to Finish

Followers of baseball will have an
opportunity this afternoon to witness a
real game of baseball, when the Poly
technic high school nine tries conclu-
sions with the undefeated aggregation
that halls from Cotton.
The Cotton ball tossers have been an
nexing the scalps of every team in their
vicinity and come to Los Angeles for
the express purpose of adding further
laurels to their list.
In tackling Poly the boys from San
Bernardino county will go up against
some real class, and, judging from the
games in which Poly has figured lately,
the Cotton students will have to travel
fast or else return with one dent In
their unbroken list of victories.
Tompkins will be in the points for
the Polys and Harry Price will don the
mask behind the bat. Tompkins has
been showing up of late as remark
able dispenser of curves, and on his
work today the supporters of Poly
place their hopes of victory
The Cotton team on paper appears TO
be the fastest aggregation that has in
vaded Los Angeles this season, and for
that reason a victory for Poly would
mean material prestige.
Despite the rain of the last few days
the boys of Poly have been practicing
diligently, and if they go down in de-
feat this afternoon they VIII nave no
excuses to offer.
April the Polytechnic team will
leave Los Angeles for a transforming
tour throughout Southern California,
and the players realize that in order to
secure games and be an attraction they
must start with a good record. With
a victory over Cotton high, and by
clinching the pennant in the Inter
scholastic league their ambitions will
be realized.

CHINO HANDICAP DRAWS OUT FIELD
OF CLASSY SPRINTERS FOR TODAY
Ms 1aaS : ss'Sa51

II ARNEY SCHRIEBER, who has
IL done more for the American turf
~ than any other man in the wide
west, enjoyed racing yesterday from a
chair which he placed in the rear of
Jack Atkins book. Barney also had
a lot of fun with those bookmakers
who refused to consider his entries in
a serious light. He bet heavily on
Sainposal, Kiora and Buchanan and
cashed with the first two. He will
remain here for few days longer and
then return to Emeryville, where he
has a book on and also has one of his
racing divisions there.
r. L. Thomas was out again yester-
day, but forced to limp slightly as he
walked about the grounds. He is
much improved, but still is very sick
man, and will return to his Kentucky
home in two or three weeks to have
an operation performed.
Stanley Page, the newsboy rider.
who sustained a broken arm Few
weeks ago while exercising one of the
st. James stable horses, was about the
paddock yesterday minus the sling in
which his arm has been hanging since
the injury. He says the injury is
nearly healed and that he will be
riding again in another week.
Only nineteen books cut in yesterday,
which is a decrease of two since the
previous cut-in day, Izzy Ham and
Sam Stevens dropping out, Ham mas
gone to Emeryville and Stevens is
sick.
Benny Wilson no longer is a joke
Jockey This kid is one of the finds or
the season, and il he could get rev
mounts on horses that had chance
to win he would be seen in front at the
wire more frequently than now. How
ever, he is surprising the natives every
day by riding long shots into the
money and occasionally putting over
winner. He will go to New York for
the spring meetings, and, If capably
handled, should develop into a real
star of the saddle.
George Ref boosted the selling price
of John Louis from S1100 to $500 yes
terday. He formerly owned this horse,
but G. c. Baker acting for Ed Alvey,
bought him out of a recent selling race.

Old Timer Loses Feature Event to
John Louis, Which Shows Re-
narkabe Improvement
over Previous Race
NY Jay DAVIDSON

Favorites had rough shedding yester-
day afternoon at Santa Anita because
the specializing public did not like them
and went TO the outsiders in the bet
ting. All the winners. however, Were
we'll backed and the sharpshooters had
a big day, although all the books Won
during the afternoon. Valley Stream
was the first favorite to fall down. be-
ing held at odds-on to win the opening
overture, and from that time to the
close of racing for the day the talent
had to look In vain for some sign of a
winning favorite. Shortsightedness by
the bookmakers and short prices they
laid explains the fact that the public
was not badly outguessed, as those who
liked the favorites We're unable, in a
majority of cases. to play them at the
odds-on prices offered.
Old Timer was taken out in front IN
the feature event, at nine furlongs, and
ran his head off before turning fer
home but his great speed and game
ness enabled him to hold on long
enough to get the place from st. Ilario,
while John Louis won in a hard drive.
With weight off his last race and O.
switch in weights with John Louis that
made him look like a veritable cinch,
ST. Ilario could not beat John Louis, the
latter showing remarkable improve
ment.
Barney Schrieber managed to win
two races during the day and should
have won three but Buchanan. favorite
in the last race, was unfinished by
Chaplet, with Glass up, and only ran
second. Sainposal and Kiora, however,
increased the Missouri baron's bank roll
immensely, as he played all his horses
to win. Kiora was much the best at
the distance in the baby race and had
no difficulty in winning from Jack
Dennerlen. the good thing, which was
poorly handled and might have won
with well judged ride. Sainposal ran
over Belleek in the sixth and won just
as she figured to do. Belleek was Sec
ond and Miss Naomi was third. Jane
Laurel, played off the boards by band
of sharpshooters who thought they
knew something, got nothing.
Biskra was overlaid by many points
and came along and won the third race
with fairly good ease from Lord Nelson.
although the latter was much the best
and should have won. MCGEE became
overconfident when in front fifty yards
from the wire, and Belleek ran over
him. Free Knight the Bear was third
and was we'll played by the public. LA
Gloria, the favorite, was nowhere
Velma won the first race from Val
ley Stream and Evados because But
we'll was In the saddle and hustled her
along throughout the journey. Valley
Stream was away poorly and never
could make up the lost ground at the
start.
Bye Bye III surprised everybody by
winning the fourth race from Friar of
Elgin and Vesme. The latter was
favorite and played by the stable con-
nections, but was miserably ridden.
Friar of Elgin had little Benny Wilson

TUESDAY NIGHT
Milwaukee Whlrlwind Assures His
Friends That Frank Picato VIII
Not Have Any Material
Weight Advantage
BY JAY DAVIDSON

BY JAY DANADSON
Fight fans have been worrying con-
siderablv of late about that big weight
handicap which AID Wolgast is popular
Iy believed to be going up against
when he meets Frank Picato for ten
round argument next Tuesday night,
but that he is not going up against
handicap as great as generally believed
is proved by his own statement, made
Yesterday, to the effect that he will
go into the ring at 129 pounds. They
have agreed to weigh in at 1873 pounds
at 6 o'clock, so AID will not be giving
away more than four or five pounds.
Picato is not expected to take on very
much weight after the hour for weigh
ing in.
Quite number of the wise dopesters
are figuring that the odds of favoritism
in favor of Wolgast are all wrong ana
seem to believe that it will be case
of a good big man against good little
man, with the inevitable result that
the big man will win. Some fighters
even are taking this view of the stu
alton and will string with Picato to
win One prominent fighter said yes
terday that he considers Picato cinch
on these very grounds; that he is a
classy big man and Wolgast a classy
little one, with the difference in weight
representing the only real difference be-
tween them.
Wolgast is not worrying about losing.
however, and says that he is so sure
he will win that he will bet on him
self. He has accepted a match with
Percy Cove, to be fought at Calgary,
Alberta county, Canada, in a few weeks
and will leave, with Manager Tom
Jones. for that place Immediately after
his scrap Tuesday night. He wants to
go away from Los Angeles with sue
cession of victories and will extend
himself in order to decisively whip
Picato.
This scrap undoubtedly will prove
equally as attractive to the fans as did
the Flynn-Papke affair, which packed
the Maud Junction pavilion. With two
such classy boys, both great popular
favorites, meeting for a ten-round slug
ging bee, the fans will be unable to
resist the temptation to attend. 1t GER
.tainly will be one great fight while it
lasts. Neither boy can afford to lose
and one of them is sure to fall. So each
will go into the ring with his mind
made up to engage in a fierce battle
from the first tap of the gong. And
they will fight some too, before the
scheduled distance is travelled.

big success, owing to the popularity
of the beach city and it's accessibility.
Quite an attractive card has been ar
ranged by Manager Billy Burk of the
lakewood Athletic club, Arcadia, for the
show, Saturday night. Young turner,
who was defeated last week by Martin
Hebron. will take on one of the new
pugilistic stars that have been deVel-
oped in the last six months, and a
couple of good preliminaries will open
the show.
Baron Long will go back to that dear
old big town the latter part OF TINS
week but undoubtedly will be back in
Los Angeles within a short time. He
has resided here so long that the
strange vet unaccountabe attraction of
Los Angeles has got it's work in on him
and he will not be able to stay away.
Baron is a fine fellow, personally and IN
a business way, and the sports Will
miss him very much.
The Chino handicap. at six and half
furlongs, will be the premier attraction
at Santa Anita this afternoon, and with
such cracks as donald Macdonald,
Fair Annie, Footpad, Glorio, Green
seal. Magazine and Pills named to
start over this brief route, and with a
probably lightning fast track TO faVor
them, racegoers will see a great race
and some fast time. The sixth race
also will be quite an attraction. 1t is
at five and a half furlongs and brings
out such speedy ones as Colonel Bob
Enfield, Footpad, Harrigan. Lady irma'
Rialto, Waterbury and Wherewithai:
This field represents great class as Wei
as speed. The other events are far
above the average in class, and, with
favorable weather and track condi-
tions. there should be another day OF
great sport.
