NGEMENTS MADE
FOR BALDY CLIMB
Apperson Car VIII Start First Sep
tember 19, Followed by White
Steamer and Pope
Hartford

The confidence that Col. F. c. Fenner
has in his new White car to win the
Baldy race is shown by the fact that
he has reserved a space in his private
office for a picture which will bear
the title white Steamer, winner of
the 1909 Baldy race
Another space in the office has been
reserved and bears this placard, Re
served for picture of White car, win
ner Of 1909 Los Angeles to Phoenix
race"
A spirit of optimism pervades the Of
flee of the White garage and it is
expected that the new 1910 model car
that will carry the White banner will
arrive in Los Angeles in day or two.
Col. Fenner believes that this car
will be the fastest roadster that ever
left the factory and will sustain the
reputation of the famous Black Bess.
No name has been given to the new
car, but the name of Black Bess II has
been suggested and meets with general
approval.
'"Wild Bill" Ruess is just as conf
dent that his Pope Hartford will cross
the finish line a winner September -,
and Leon T. Shelter believes that the
motto TRY, try again" will come true
this time and that the Apperson Jack
Rabbit will be in the lead.
Mr. Shelter has been contender
in two previous Badly races and firm
ly thinks that his car is about due to
win.
With such a feeling in the camps of
the three contenders this years Baldy
run should eclipse all previous races,
The drawing of positions for the 100
mile dash have been announced and
the Apperson car will be the first to
leave Seventh and Broadway Septem-
Der 10. starting at 5 o'clock that morn
ing.
The White steamer will start second,
30 minutes later, and at O'Clock the
Pope Hartford will start on the ar
duous mountain climb.
The attempt to have the time for
closing Of entries extended fifteen DAYS
was discussed, but opposed by both
Fenner and Ruess, who argued that
sufficient notice had been given for
those who contemplated entering In the
race, although they stated they had no
desire to keep out any likely en-
tries

WASP CAPTURES

SAN DIEGANs CONFIDENT OF
WINNING Upton CUP
Big Fleet of Yachts and Launches
Turns Out to Welcome Members
of Contesting Yacht
Club
[sneclnl to The Herald.l

SAN DIEGO, Cal. Aug. 3,--The
Wasp has apparently won the race
down the coast of the members of the
South Coast Yacht club although the
big Mah-Pe was the first to arrive,
early this morning. The Wasp fol-
lowed closely, and then came the Col
umbine and the Mischief IL, the last
named being the present holder of the
Upton cup.
Members of the San Diego Yacht
club are confidently expecting to annex
the Upton cup in the races Thursday
Friday and Saturday. The Aeolus,
owned by Alonzo Jessop, and DR.. Ca
hans speedy Trilby are looked on as
the most likely local contenders in this
classic of the southern coast, and
members of the San Diego club have
gone so far as to wager that a local
boat will win on two days straight
doing away with the necessity for the
third race on Saturday.
The Mah-Pe will be barred from the
Upton race on account of its size, but
will be a prominent contender in the
contest for the special cup offered by
the Hotel Del Coronado, which will be
sailed Sunday. All yachts had an un-
eventful trip down the coast. They
were welcomed on their arrival by the
yachts and launches of members of the
San Diego Yacht club.

News OF the Diamonds
BY CHARLES JERNEGAN

TN HE application of "Scotty" Allen to
charge an admission to Joy park,
Il in the city of Vernon, was denied
Yesterday by the councilmen Of that
city. John Seonis, Vernon trustee,
rose to the occasion and addressed the
village fathers as follows: ALLEN has
a great deal of political power in the
city of Los Angeles and Mr.. Hunting
ton has a great deal of vacant land.
Vernon is no place for Mr.. Allen to
conduct a ball park" At the same
meeting of the trustees Jack Doyle
was granted permission without de-
bate to charge admission to and eper-
ate his ball park at Vernon. Allen
knows of no reason why the trustees
should "have It in for him." and pre-
diets that in the long run he will get
the better of them. His plan is to
charge 25 cents for the bleachers ana
50 cents for the grandstand, and it is
believed that every fan will rally to
his suppOrt. If l have to sell chewing
gum at % cents per stick III beat that

preparation to make his assertion good.

PORTLAND, Ore. Aug. S,-Portland
lost the opening game of the series TO
san Francisco today. The contest
throughout was unsatisfactory in the
extreme Graney was wild and his
three wild pitches cost Portland as
many runs. To make matters worse,
he was poorly supported. All this was
in the face of the fact that Browning
was hit almost as effectively as the
Portland pitcher. The eliminating
event was a close decision by Van Hal
tren. who called Williams safe at home
in the ninth The audience evidenced
it's displeasure by starting to go home,
and by the time Portland came to bat
in that inning more than half the
crowd had left. The official score:

PITTSBURG, Aug. 3.-Hans Wagner
was back in the game with the Pirates
today when the leaders played Brook

the fourth inning Of Fridays game on
account of the injury received during

A rumor that Wagner has heart
trouble and would be unable to play
for many days is denied by the club
physician, who states his injury is only
sprained muscle in his left side, and'
not serious.
