there also is considerable activity IN
the two minor leagues recently or
ganized in Southern California. Jess
Orendorff is at San Bernardino, ar
ranging details connected with his
franchise in that city. Yesterday
Dalrymple, who will be manager-in-
chief OF the Riverside hopes, returned
from that city and reports that every
thing in regard to the league club in
that town is fine and dandy. Accord
ing to the schedule that has been
practically agreed upon, the season
will open April 6, which allows the
promoters but very little spare time
between in which to perfect final ar
rangements Hence this busy form
shown by the managers. The league,
comprising san Bernardino Riverside,
Redlands and Ontario and Upland,
which latter two towns will unite in
the support of one club, will play six
games a week while the local South
ern California Trolley organization, of
which Jim Mccormick is the presi-
dent, will play only Sunday ball Ac-
cording to this arrangement the
Southern California league should be
able to pay a higher salary average
than the local organization, while the
players in the latter, besides drawing
a nice little amount for their Sunday
work, will be able to keep up their
regular weekly work. To a player
who has the opportunity of signing
with either organization it is mat
ter OF whether he only wants to play
ball the season through or whether a
job with a game on Sunday is the
thing he wants. Managers of both
organizations will be getting busy inn
mediately and it will soon be up to
the local amateur cracks who are

would arrive Saturday night.
But In case the white soxed aggre-
CATION fail to put IN an appearance.
Hen Berry has arranged a national
game seance for those who are hunger
ing for an exhibition of big league
ealiber. In arranging the game, Berry
has divided the Angel squad into hrst
and second teams, the first being COM
posed of DAILY, center field; Ross, left
fleld; Bernard, short stop; Howard,
second base; j. Smith, third base;
Gill. first base: Hanson, right field;
Grihdle, catcher; Nagle, Delhi ana

each one of the Angel band was
mighty glad to take to the dressing
room and a cold shower.
With the exception OF Delhi, Grin

was out and the park sure had the
appearance OF lively spring prac-
tlce. The infield worked in better
form than II had shown yet, each
player seemed to feel more sure OF
himself and with this confidence the
snappy work ON the diamond assumed
the appearance of midseason warm-

fight for racing is expected to be made
at the next session of the Legislature.
1t is needless to say that no bookinak-
ers were present in person or by proxy,
as these horsemen are not going TO
fight for this style of sport. 1t Is
probable, however, that pari-mutuels
will be indorsed and the legislature
will be asked TO permit the operation
of the mutuel system at all state,
county and district fairs and licensed
race meetings.
Big joke-I.isaro is among the eligi-
bles TO the Metropolitan handicap and
his name stands out like sore thumb
i'm the published list OF nominees TO this
big stake. Just what sort of joke
Earl Linnell is trying to play on him
self is not apparent.
Little Lord Fauntelroy returned yes
terday from Phoenix. where he took
his airship-photographi outfit and
did land office business during the
aviation meet there. Among other
things that the lord acquired was a
beautiful coat of tan on face and
arms and the way 1t is peeling off,
IT looks like he might get back into
the bantam division once more.
John /. Taylor, boss man OF the
Boston Americans and who Is inter-
ested i'm the Sacramento Coast league
club is on the coast and will be here
in a. few DAYS to take feel of the
sunny cline and test it for future ref
erence when he begins to plan for
next years spring training trip. He
makes no bones about his desire to
come here with his Beaneaters for
the spring training trip next year and
as Comiskey does not intend coming
back again, Taylor will find welcome
waiting for him and lots of influence
to get him to make the trip.
Eddie Ryan, as fat as a straw and
as lively as a flea. came in from
Juarez yesterday and says he gained
four ounces while wintering at the
Mexican race track. Eddie delighted
a lot of friends by getting back alive,
az discouraging reports were brought
here throughout the winter by those
who returned from FL Paso. He will
stay in Los Angeles this summer un-
less the call of the weeds takes him to
salt Lake city, Eddie being unable
most of the time to resist the call
of the brush meetings.
Kitty Brashear arrived yesterday
from Pomona, where he has been
coaching the Claremonters in the art
of ball playing. Kitten still is a MEM
ber of the Vernon ball-tossing aggre-
cation and Hogan is unwilling to talk
trade for him. 1t looked for awhile
like Kit might be made manager of
the Frisco State league club, but ne
gotiations are dragging along slowly
and he does not think much will come
of them now.
