WILL SEND LACROSSE
PLAYERS TO PORTOLA
Southern California Association to
Have Strong Team in the Field
Against Players of Pacific
Organization

That Southern California will be well
represented in the Lacrosse champion
ships, to be held during Portola week
at San Francisco, is assured by the
preparations now being made by Sec
retary A. o. Wright of the Southern
California Lacrosse association to send
strong team against the northerners.
c. H. Minto, chairman of the Lacrosse
commission of the Portola games,
writes that great interest has been
manifested in the Canadian national
game at San Francisco and that the
Pacific Lacrosse association, with head
quarters at the City of the Golden
Gate, will be represented by a team of
the most experienced players of the
Pacific coast.
The local team will be an all-star
aggregation, chosen from the ShaAn-
rock and Los Angeles players of the
Angel city. 1t was at first believed by
the Portola managers that the south
would be unable to send team which
could make >Inuch of a showing, but
since the recent Los Angeles games,
the Southern California team was
chosen in favor of that of British
Columbia. The play will take place
upon October 20. Much rivalry exists
between the members of the two local
teams as to which men will carry
their colors to victory or defeat in the
northern tournament and almost daily
practice will be held from now until
the players leave for the north.

CAPTAIN Dillons cripples will reap
pear on the home field tomorrow after
noon for a series of a week with the
Vernon team. This is the final return
to the present champions With the
game Sunday at Portland their away
trombone games closed for the season.
From tomorrow until the end of the
year, october 13, the Angels will play
on their home grounds, closing with a
weeks series with the Beavers.
The Angels return home from the
most disastrous trip of the season.
When they left they had splendid
fighting chance to overhaul the seals.
Now 1t is probable they will finish
third. A weak pitching staff has caused
the loss of several series.
Owing to the long jump from Port
land to the Angel City, there will be
no game at Vernon today, and conse-
ouently the two teams will play off the
Tuesday game next Monday. Hogan's
men have been giving a great exhibit
ton of baseball in the last fortnight,
and at their present gait will trim the
Angels in the next series unless the
Berry team takes a big brace.
San Francisco figures to keep up its
winning streak, and still further clinch
it's lead for the pannant by taking on
Sacramento in the Bay city. At Port
land the Beavers look to be in soft
place when against the Oakland team.
The loss Of the last series practically
meant the loss by the Angels of all
chance of getting back into second
place, and several Beaver victories this
week will further strengthen the hold
on the runner up position now held by
the Mercedes.

ATHLETIC OUTLOOK
GOOD AT MONROVIA
Baseball and Basketball to Be Given
Much Attention-No Football
Team for Present
Season

Prospects at Monrovia high school for
a frst-class showing in every branch Of
athletics during the coming season are
exceedingly bright. Basketball practice
has begun already, and fifteen or TWEEN
ty candidates for the quintet are work.
ing daily. Last years squad lost but
one game, and it is believed that the
aggregation which will be selected to
represent the foothill institution during
the coming season will be even faster.
Shepard, Boyd, Glenney, Cornes, Dis
mukes and many others have already
reported for practice.
More attention will be given to base
ball this season than during last year
and less time will be devoted to track
work. Crandall, who was responsible
for the high standing which the school
maintained during the season of 1908-9,
will be back in the curve station, and
with Glenney on the receiving end of
the battery and supported by a fast
infield, every effort will be made to
win the suburban league pennant. Mon
rovia lost the championship game last
year to Compton.
Many stars will also report for track
work, although the absence of MarYey,
who won first place in last years sub
urban team, will be felt. Harvey is
probably the best athlete who ever
graduated from the high school, hold
ing several interscholastic records for
the jumps and shot puts.
Football-Rugby or American-wil
not be attempted by the school, largely
owing to the lack of coach, although
1t is probable that the Rugby game will
be taken up in the season of 1910-11.
Girls baseball will also be one of the
features of the seasons work, and a
strong team of lassies is expected tc
uphold the honor of M. H. S.

BASKETBALL GAMES
ARRANGED FOR POLY
High School Plans Trips for Thanks
giving and Christmas Weeks.
New Suits Purchased
for Players

Basketball Is gaining popularity more
and more as the season progresses at
Poly, and Captain Art Record expects
to develop one of the fastest fves ever
turned out by the Mechanics. Captain
Record is assisted in his coaching by
Prof. Boston of Whittier, who devel-
oped the Quaker city lads into county
champions for three successive seasons.
He expects to make arrangements in
the immediate future for number Of
class games, which he hopes will do
much to add to the general interest of
the sport.
Owing to the fact that Poly will not
enter the county league, she will play a
series of games with Los Angeles high.
She also will meet many of the South
ern California teams. The following
schedule has been arranged by Man
ager Haywood: November 19 or 20,
Compton at Poly; December 4, Har-
ward military at Poly; December 10 or
II, Hollywood at Poly; December II or
Is, Poly high at Pasadena; January z
or s, Poly at Long Beach high; Janu-
ary II, Los Angeles high at Poly; jan
uary 10, Poly at Los Angeles high;
January q or %, Poly at Whittier high;
January 29 the final game with Los
Angeles high will be played.
Thanksgiving week Poly expects to
send her quintet to Orange and San
Bernardino counties, where a series of
games win be played. During the
Christmas week the five will journey
north to Frisco, where games will be
played with Oakland high, Alameda,
Lowell, Polytechnic, Berkeley high and
several others. New suits will be pur-
chased soon for the players.

WILL NOT
JOIN ATHLETIC CLUB
Henderson Turns Down the Offer OF
Rugby Team - Believes Ath-
Ietic Club Directors Are
After Coin

Owing, it seems, to a general mis-
understanding, the CastaWay football
team will not affiliate with the Los
Angeles Athletic club. Saturdays
game with Berkeley at Fiesta park
will be played by a strictly Castaway
aggregation. Assistant Secretary Hen
derson of the Athletic club, aided by
Ed Galley not only secured permission
of the clubs officers last week to use
several Castaway players, but assured
the CastaWay outfit of the clubs sup
port and the use of the gymnasium.
To this the Castaways willingly agreed
and all went smoothly until, through
some unknown source, the CastaWay
players became imbued with the idea
that the Athletic club was hard after
a little free advertising and also had
an eye to fabulous gate receipts.
The truth of the matter is that the
club directors were disinterested in Of
fering the Castaways their support
and figured that in all probability the
season would be closed with a finan-
cial loss. They believed, however, that
the game would be a good one for the
club to take up and that with the as
sistance of Coach Higgins and the aid
of several old players in the back
field that a first class showing would
be made. 1t is on this plan that many
of the eastern athletic clubs have OPP
Grated.
Yesterday the wind again veered and
the Castaways again came around
with a proposition to Henderson to
affiliate with the association. The
offer was promptly refused. The Cast
aways will now go ahead and endeavor
to make a good showing against Ber-
kelley and Stanford. The Los Angeles
Athletic club will put no team in the
field this season, but will employ a
first class coach to instruct fifteen
which may give other local squads a
few pointers on the fine points of the
English game of Rugby
