BOWLING

The beginning of the end is now at
hand, as the last lap OF the City league
tournament started this week. The Co
lumbias still hold their lead, although
the Morleys caught up with them In
the percentage column. The averages
of the high men have changed triile,
but not enough to hurt them or to put
them in any danger of being passed by
other competitors,
Being so near the Windup, all the
boys are taking more courage and rail-
ing their best, with the result that
better games and incidentally better
averages are being bowled. Also, as
the elimination tournament is being
held on the same alleys, and nearly all
the men entered belong to the city
league, they have a double chance to
help their scores. This tournament 50
far has well served its purpose of Gre
ating more enthusiasm and better feel
ing among the bowlers of Los Angeles,
as was intended at the beginning. The
boys are getting closer together and all
petty ill feeling is being dropped out,
and the boys vie with each other in
general good fellowship.
The following is the standing of the
teams, with their pin totals:

F1ERALD'S
RIAL TO GOSSIP
By Jay Davidson

a CCORDING to the statements is
4 sued by Jack Gleason and Tex
- Richard, the fight fans of the
where the big fight between Jeffries
and johnson will be held They have
been unable to agree so far, but Rick
ard shows signs of weakening in that
he will so TO Frisco this week to look
over the propositions there for holding
the big fight in the northern metrop-
oils. Rickard is quoted as saying that
he feels the influence of the governor
of Utah against the fight in that state
and that he is becoming convinced that
it might operate against the attend
ance ii an effort should be made to
hold the fight in his jurisdiction as long
as he is opposed to it. Riekard should
know, probably he does that san
Francisco can turn out a bigger crowd
to big fight than any city on earth
and that it would be financial foolish
ness to try stubbornness against
money. II begins to look more than
ever as If the fight would go to Frisco
after all. Gleason is we'll liked by
fight and baseball fans all over the
coast and can draw u bigger crowd
than any other promoter because they
have confidence in him. He is
square fellow and here's hoping he
lands the fight.
Johnny McGraw has sent the advance
guard OF players to Marlin Springs,
Texas to get ready for the spring
training stunts. He will follow in a
few days with the remainder of the
team and probably will be the first
team in the National league to get
into spring work, In few days Com
iskey will start west with his bunch
of White Sox and viii train for the
last time on the coast. He is quoted
as saying that he win train in future
in Missouri or closer to home. We will
miss White SoX, old boys, but there
will be the Washington Americans and
the Boston Americans to take their
place. So, why should we worry? Nc
Aleer and John I. Taylor are good

WINTER BASEBALL

IN HERE will be hot time in that
old Pasadena town this afternoon
II when the Shamrocks and the
Crown city aggregations mingle on the
diamond of the aristocrats. There is
nothing under the rays of Old Sol that
will stir the fighting blood of Joe
Judges pets as quickly as the Haunt
ing of a green -hued baseball suit, and
as the Shamrocks always are full Of
pep and ginger the diamond battle
of the day should result. Considerable
rivalry, which is of ancient origin,
having commenced in the tender days
of the Winter league organization, still
exists between the two clubs, and
whenever a game is heralded between
the green and the silk stockings, base
ball fans are assured of a lively eX-
hibition.
Two ball players, one an initial sack
er and the other third baseman, are
on the lookout for positions with some
fast local club. Any club desiring such
additions can get in communication
with these two players by calling Tenn
pie 1865 after s a. m.
Leo O'Conner, the st. Vincent catch
er, has received an offer to. catch for
the Santa Clara college, and as base
ball at present is in dormant state
at the Catholic institution, Leo has
decided to accept the offer, and will
leave for Santa Clara in a week or two.
The Pasadena fans who attend
today's contest between the McCor-
micks and the Silk Stockings will get
their moneys worth in watching the
work of that corking left fielder of the
Shamrocks, Goose" Pittman. Goose"
is about due for another of his cele-
brated stunts. Watch The Herald.
