News of Amateur World

1t has come to great pass when
American teams are being defeated at
their own games. We are hearing daily
of the overwhelming trimmings the
all-star rugby players are receiving
in their contests in Australia, and now
1t is the Japanese who are showing US
our own game and initiating our dia-
mond stars into some of the fine points
which have proved too subtle for the
American but seem easy for the little
brown men. Baseball has taken q
great hold on the Japanese schools and
colleges and 1t Is now the one game of
the schools of higher education in the
Oriental countries. Crack Jap teams
give just as exciting q contest as many
of our major league trays, and the last
picked" so-called team which jour
neyed to the land of the new civiliza-
ton came back wiser and sadder men,
for not only were they beaten repeat
eddy by the Japanese university mines,
but they could land only one victory
and a tie from their entire trip. 1t is
time we were looking to our laurels
and arousing a little of the team spirit
which Is the mainstay of the Oriental
baseball squad.
With the fighting game dead, racing
a thing of history and most of the old
professional sports on the downward
path, amateur sport is coming into be-
ing as the only available recreation,
and baseball in particular Is attract
ing many of the old sportsmen who
cannot live without the excitement of a
struggle for a victory Southern CAL
ifornia is becoming the home of all
kinds of sport and in the mixup OF
every variety of sports and pastimes
baseball has it's frame and the big
crowd is attracted to that side of the
gallery. The hot months always throw
q damper on the schedule, but as soon
as the longed-for swim or day on the
pike has grown tiresome. back will
come the caravans of the diamond art
lists and amateur ball will thrive as
ever.
The Sunday Morning league has
again changed its personnel, but is
keeping up it's schedule in fine shape
and the percentage column is point
of pride to the four clubs now in the
race for the pennant. There will be
two games in the league tomorrow
morning-the Dyas-Clines and Great
Easterns at Mace park; the Euclids
and Ivanhoes at Athletic. There is a
great deal OF interest in the league,
as it is one of the few local organiza-
lions which have solid foundations and
are not weakening before the schedule
for the season is hardly under way.
The lineups for the two games will be
as follows:
