VIZ HEN the Los Angeles Coast
w leaguers mingle with the Tril-
bys on the Chutes grounds to-
morrow Sam Langford will hold the
indicator. This arrangement was defl-
nitely settled last evening when Joe
Woodman, Langfords manager gave
his consent. Previous to Woodman
acquiescence, Sammy's appearance as
the nineteenth man on the grounds
was very much of an uncertainty, as
he had confided to Manager White of
the colored aggregation that as much
as he wanted to boss the affair, 1T
was up to his boss to give the first
decision. With Langford holding the
indicator, Sundays attraction at the
Chutes becomes greater than ever, as
the black demon with the padded mitts
is some drawing card himself.
Manager Henry Save of the Teddy
Bear baseball team is on the warpath,
and should Manager Daily of the Ven
tura club cross that path he will be
the recipient of the tomahawk, as it
was throu~H his failure to keep Sun
days date with the Bears that caused
the Teddy manager to don the war
paint In a letter to The Herald Save
laments the loss of $50 which had been
wagered with the Venturans on the
outcome and also refers to Days eX-
cuse of uncertain weather conditions"
for calling off the contest as an "at-
tack of cold in the low 4Xtremities.'
The breaking of this date leaves the
Bears with an open date Sunday, and
their record during this season of win
ming fifteen out of the eighteen games
played should make them desirable
drawing card on any diamond. Ar
raneements can be made by calling up
Manager Save at Boyle 143.
Pitchers Vance and Fisher are two
new recruits ON the heaving, staff OF
the Los Angeles Pippins in the Inter-
urban league With this new strength
in the twirling department, Manager
Mueller expects to rout the Anaheims
from their position at the head of the
percentage column.
r. Hopgood, the crack slab artist
with the Burke Athletic club team, is
the best ''spit ball'' artist in the In
terurban league. His sptter, COM
bined with that tantalizing big out
curve, make a hard combination to
beat.
Frank Pearne, manager of the Lacy
team, has been having his hands full
trying to patch up the weak spots IN
his team. Trying means success, and
it is anticipated that he will soon rlVet
some hot ones in his lineup.
The Santa Anita club, contrary to
what it's name signifies, is the strong
est competitor that Jim Mccormick S
Shamrocks have for the title they
hear. as all of the Santa Anita club
are very much irish.
Catcher Cheshire has organized a
crack team composed of big leaguers
and near-big ones, which he will take
to Pasadena next Sunday and line them
up against the Pasadena club of the
former Winter league. Cheshire is con-
fident that his picked team will get the
cranes and submits the following strong
array of ball tossers to back his
opinion: Shildwater or Cheshire,
catcher: Vance or Hensling, pitcher;
Molly, first base; Allen, second base;
Nalle, third base; shorty Phester
shortstop; Kelly, left field; Encoe, CEN
ter field; Coy, right field.
Manager Pete Hansen will take the
Tufts-Lyon team to Covina Sunday
where they will mingle with the home
club. The sporting goods team will
present a strong lineup and the con-
test should be warm one. The lineup;
