ALAMEDA eleven
DEFIES The A. AL
Ercinaf City Football Team viii
Play Fresno and Forfeit
Championship

The Alameda high school football
eleven, runners up for the Academic
league championship of this section of
the state. will leave this evening for
Fresno to play the high school eleven
of that city tomorrow afternoon. In
making this move the Encinal city
kickers are acting directly in defiance
to the officers of the Academic athletic
league, which has carded the Alameda
eleven to play Hitchcock for the cham
pionship on the Presidio grounds in
this city tomorrow.
Up to the last minute, it was be-
lieved that the Alameda team would
eventually bow to the ruling of the
game with Hitchcock However, there
was a switch in the plans last night
when the officials of the Alameda club
decided to throw down the gauntlet to
the league officers and fill it's date by
taking on the Fresno eleven and pass
ing Hitchcock up.
The Alameda lads claim that they
had agreed to take on the Fresno team
before the officials of the Academic
league ruled that they should play
Hitchcock in this city. The Alameda
boys say that they are perfectly will
ing to take on Hitchcock on any other
date that the league may name, but
they absolutely refuse to break the
date they have already made with the
southern eleven for tomorrow after
noon. This has started a merry war
between the school and the league di-
rectors.
In the meantime the league has de-
cided to substitute the Lick school to
take the place of Alameda in the con-
test with Hitchcock on the Preside
field tomorrow afternoon, although
Lick really does not figure with Ala
media so far as championship form is
concerned.
Late last night the Alameda people
announced that they will register a
formal protest for the championship
against the winner of the proposed
Lick Hitchcock game The Alamedans
apparently are sore through and
through and tehy even go so far as tc
say that the league officials are en-
deavoring to force them into playing
Hitchcock here tomorrow for the rea
son that its treasury is low and thai
1t needs the funds to replenish its
coffarc

Third Power i'm Fight

While Madero and Bernardo Reyes

day Guillermo Kotta, a member of the

"Ahumada is the favorite of the
Mexicans for Diaz's place. He is the
dark horse on whom we hope to see

American Association in
Queer Role

CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-Ignoring Of re-
quests made by the American assoct-
alton at previous meetings of the Ma
tionaI Association of Professional Base
hall Clubs explains the failure OF the
growing minors to have an official
league representative at the recent
gathering of the big baseball commits
sion in Chicago.
President Thomas Chivington of the
American association yesterday offered
a light on the disinterested attitude
of the association toward the national
body.
The surprise of the annual meeting
last week was the failure of the
American association to even put re-
quest for the reclassiication which
would raise the organization and the
eastern league into class by them
selves, to be rated as AA. This has
been given out as one of the points
which 4 A uld surely bring up a heated
fight during the course of the gather
ing. The threa tened move did not ma
terialize. however. for the simple rea-
son that the association magnates re-
sarded a request as hopeless and pre-
ferred to wait.
THE Willingness to remain under the
same classification for another year al
least is explained by the fact that next
fail the national agreement under
which the minor league clubs operate
EXPIRES 1t was intimated yesterday by
the American association head that the
respective club owners will consider a
long time in 1911 before entering an
other compact under the present ar
rangement.
No definite line of attack has been
mapped out as yet. but indications point
toward one thing-a combination OF
the Eastern league and American as
sociation in demand for raise in the
classification lists.

Ahumada is said to have been given
his present position TO balk his poll
tical activity. He has always been a
thorn in the side of the Diaz support
ers because they were aware of his
popularity with the common people.
Seven years ago he was prominently
mentioned as d successor TO Diaz, but
his supporters were squelched before
they made muck headway. In the
meantime Ahumada has kept very
quiet and the fact that he is the favor
ite of the most radical wing of the
Mexican revolutionists will come as a
surprise to many.
STUDENTS AROUSED RADICALS
A mining man who arrived from
Mexico few days a go says the radi-
Gals make pretense of opposition to
Americans to arouse the United States
against DiaZ. The students in Mexico
City, he stated, were the first to COM
nit overt acts following the Texas
lynching and their activity gave the
radicals the looked for opportunity of
striking at the government. The revo-
luton will end, he says, with death or
imprisonment for the ringleaders of
the rebels.
