for owens lake to investigate the extent
of progress upon the aqueduct and to
put in a week at fishing, hunting and

Clarence Berry is a regular at the
games since Saturday, and he can
easily claim the medal for being the
champion baseball rooter of the coast.

wants to see a Californian selected, es-

pable, honest and otherwise qualified
as any other referees in the world, if
not even more qualified by reason OF
their wider experience in handling big
fights. Down this way, every sports
man is pulling for the selection Of
Charlie Eyton, and no better selection
could be made.
