HIGH SCHOOL BOYS

Glass
L. A. High IS, Japs 9

Los Angeles High school took the
Japs into camp yesterday afternoon
at Joy park, after the latter had ap-
parently won the game with five runs
in the very first inning.
The high school boys were not to be
so easily defeated, however, and rallied
in the last half of the game, running
around bases until tired out. Iwasa,
who was on the slab for the Japs,
proved entirely too ineffective for the
heavy high school sluggers and before
the game had been finished the hilltop
lads had gathered seventeen safe
bingles off his delivery, three of which
were triples.
Newman put up a sensational game
for the high school, for he not only
distinguished himself in the center
garden by several pretty catches, but
also sent three of the props across the
pan on a beautiful three-base hit in
the sixth inning. Wilson pitched a
steady game for the Fort boys and set
tied down when hits meant runs for
the Japs.
Both teams played loose ball ON the
field, the Japs being the heaviest Of
tenders in this part of play, having no
less than twelve errors chalked up to
them.

cold that caused him much trouble
with his wind when he last appeared in

Sullivan has been conditioning at
Doyle's South Side Athletic club, where
Austin and Willie Mack have been

wallop is stronger than ever, and it
is his punch on which he relies to
win. In Hefron, however, he is pit

WINNING WALKERS
MAKE SECOND MATCH

The walkers in the siX-day walking
contest which took place in the Made
in California" exposition building nave
changed their minds and acknowledged
that the statements they made in re-
gard to not having been fully PAID were
made without thoroughly understand
ing the conditions.
Manager Newman, who conducted the
race, stated yesterday that it was part
of the written agreement that the
walkers would have deducted from
their paw their legitimate expenses
which they incurred during the walk.
MIR. Newman furnished the walkers
with bandages and liniment, physi-
clan, and paid one-half the services of
a rubber during the week.
1t was over the hitch in regard to
whom should stand the expense ac-
count that the disagreement arose. The
walkers are now satisfied that the
agreement was lived up to, and ac-
knowledged that Manager Newman
acted squarely in the matter.
TO show that everything has been
satisfactorily settled, the four leading
walkers in last weeks contest have en-
gagged the walking pavilion for match
race that will be pulled off Saturday
Welfare and Morgan, last weeks
winners, will be pitted against Young
Mltcnell ana SPARKS, WHO HnlsHeu sec
ond. The race will not be in teams,
but individual matches of forty miles
for a side bet of $50 in each match.
Bitter rivalry arose between the two
leading teams, and the dispute as to
the relative walking qualities led to II
bet of $50 that young Mitchell could
defeat Welfare, and that his partner,
Sparks, could defeat Morgan in forty
mile contest. The contest will start in
'tha Panorama building Saturday morn
ing at 10 o'clock, and Judging from the
walking abilities and conditions of the
contest should be finished by II o'clock
Saturday night.
The contest should produce some clas-
sly walking, as Mitchell states that his
ankle has rounded into shape.

ing that the alleged decision of Killing
is news to him, but no surprise.

Murphy's headquarters some time age

pay fine of $1,000 before he would be
allowed to play with the champions
This statement was modified later by
President Murphy, who said Killing
would 'have to patch it up with Man

This remark certainly sounds startling in these days of cleanliness and hygiene; but the introduction of such a soap pow der as Gold Dust has made the slow dissolving cake of soap back number.
 The reason is simple. Soap must dis solve before it can soften water or re- move dirt The cake must be cut up and dissolved to make a soft soap before 1t Is really effective for washing clothes. The fine grains of Gold Dust, however, dissolve at once and in dissolving there is a double reaction in the water; the Gold Dust dissolves the hard lime, etc, making the water soft, and in so doing is instantly dissolved itself. Gold Dust is, therefore, not only the most conven- tent, but also the quickest and easiest cleanser for clothes and everything.

Three weeks ago, when Westerly won two games from Stonington, it decided the championship of the Rhode Island Connecticut baseball league, for with two games to play Westerly could have lost both and still be the champions of the league for 1909. It was then when Wakefield got strong and started in to win the two final games from the champions, just to show that the sport ing blood of Wakefield was not of the weak and watery kind. The Wakefields came to Westerly Saturday with a team composed in the main of the champion Monitors of the Rhode Isl- and Intercity league, and the result was a hit and run game of the kind that kept the fans. flaming from start to finish. The visitors got in some pretty good licks on Glennon and the Westerlys did not spare the Rowland wonder. champion pitcher of the Inter- city league. and the result was a de- cidedly exciting and interesting game of baseball.
