Moran, so they must think pretty well
of their chances.
Los Angeles seems to be the Mecca
for all the fighters out of a job just
now. as they are pouring into the city
in streams. In addition to Phil Brock,
Billy Papke and Jim Barry are among
the late arrivals, all of them looking
for trouble. Papke has gone to Venice
10 open training quarters in anticipa-
ton of getting a match with Jim
Flynn for about June IS. Flynn is will
ing to take on the KeWanee boy again,
although he has trimmed the Thunder
bolt twice. He says he can keep it up
for a lifetime if there is enough money
in it. Papke does not believe much in
the Flynn claims of individual suprem-
acy, however, and if they can agree
upon the weights the match probably
will be made today. Ed Papke, trainer
and manager of Billy, is with him.
Barry would appreciate the chance to
make some money by taking on any
scrapper Uncle Tom has in stock for
him; and as he is fit and ready, he
may be accommodated, although the
local fight docket is nicely filled for the
next month to come. With such classy
fighters as Ad Wolgast, San Langford,
owen Moran, Frankie Conley, Lew
Powell, Jack Burns, Sandy Ferguson,
Billy Papke and Jims Barry and Flynn
to pick from, McCarey seems to have
many a good scrap in sight for the next
sixty or ninety DAYS.

Now that the intercollegiate baseball
season has become a thing of the past
and the fans of the diamond have
eased their throats little, the rah-rah
boys will begin the first tryout of the
gridiron warriors. This year is the
first that spring practices for the fan
football. season have been attempted
in the west and the husky beeves of
the sawdust arenas are all eady f1gur-
ing on the championship school ana
looking around for likely timber with
which to produce a winning squad
Ernest Wieman, two years captain or
the Occidental college eleven and one
of the best football men the south has
produced, has been chosen to guide
the Tiger bulls in the 1910 schedule
He has experienced six years of the
sport and is postmaster in the
science department of the game. A
member of the class of 1911, editor of
the Junior Annual and possessing titles
galore, he has become one of the most
popular men in the college. President
Baer declares he has implicit faith in
the undergraduate coaching system
and in Ink Wieman, its first repre-
sentative in the west.

to fall just as short June 7 as he did
last Sunday. Ruhianism does not ap-
peal to the fans of Southern Califor-
MIA, and If the methods adopted by Mo
ran are to be taken as an example of
how he is to train for future fights
here. it will be to the interest of the
game for McCarey to tie can to him.
1t would seem to a billy inclined
man that a fighter who has been up
against 1t like Moran would use some
decency in his efforts at getting back
in the good graces of the fans who
make his living for him. We do not
need that class of fighters down here,
anyway.
Conley began training Sunday at
Doyle's club, and is working regularly
every day. In addition to road runs,
he boxes every afternoon with Hobo
Dougherty, Marty Kane and other
tough nuts, and is getting into good
condition for the supreme test he knows
is in store for him. Conley always can
be depended upon to train properly and
to fight every inch of the way so the
fans are not a bit worried on this score.
He showed in his scrap with Danny
Webster that he can travel at a fast
pace and fight effectively, and as he
must be able to hit it up at a lively
rate when he tackles Moran, he is
training as much for speed as anything
terday, looking for some Moran money,
but the odds have not settled yet. The
Conley brothers will bet on beating

RialtO Gossip

n AKLAND will be the attraction at
the local baseball parks this
~ week in a seven-game series with
Vernon, beginning this afternoon at
the Chutes. This will be the first APP
pearance Of the Commuters on the
local diamonds this season and despite
their position in the league pennant
race tEe team is playing classy ball.
The Commuters climbed into four
place last Sunday by beating the Port
land Beavers twice in one day, dis
lodging the Angels and dropping them
into fifth place. The Villagers do not
fear any of them, especially Oakland,
but may be surprised and the series
should furnish the fans with some
snappy baseball. The Coast league
pennant chase will be resumed this
afternoon in San Francisco and Port
land, too, with Los Angeles playing the
Seals and Sacramento tacl1ling Nc
Credie's bunch in the northwest. If
the Angels do their duty, they Will
push the Seals farther down the lad
der and out of the way of the Yer
non club, which is a full game ahead
of the Frisco bunch. While Vernon
is trimming the Commuters and help
ing the Angels to get back up the lad
der, the Angels can help themselves
and Vernon by trimming the Seals, and
these little brotherly kindnesses will
come in very handily this week. Bris-
walter probably will toss for the An
gels in Frisco, as it is his turn to work,
and Henley probably will oppose him.
Hogan may use Willetts this afternoon
and Oakland undoubtedly will send
Nelson to the firing line.
Fred Schiffman came in from his
Glendora ranch yesterday to look up
his old pal, Baron Long, but was just
a few hours too late, as Baron had
departed the night before. Fred has
a lot of other good friends here,
though, and while he was disappointed
at not seeing the Baron, he found his
trip to town quite pleasant Vaca-
ton from the duties of raising oranges
for the effete ones down east Fred
was in such a hurry to get in town
that he ran half way up giant euca-
lyptus tree and broke a pair of auto
mobile wheels that were doing finely
until Fred overlooked the location OF
the tree in the road. Rather than ride
back home on an ordinary street car
he decided to remain over day or two
and have new wheels put on his gaso-
line buggy.
Joe Levy, who is looking after the
interests of Danny Webster in the
north, writes to inform his local
friends that Danny is doing beautifully
in training and that victory over Harry
Baker seems assured when they meet
tonight Levy intends going after
Johnny Coulon for match with Web
ster in the event Danny wins Cou
Ions dad has promised Levy a match
in that event.
Matchmaker Hancock has arranged
three of the four preliminaries to the
Ferguson Burns scrap for next Tues
day, matching six we'll known boys for
six round bouts. The cards arranged
are: Hobo Dougherty and Herb White.

BOWLING

There is a very close race on in the
Electric Bowling league for first team
prize The Woodill -Hulses are still
leading by a small percentage. The
Electrics have strengthened their team
by the addition of Burger, who is
promising new bowler. The Newberry-
Bowers are now much stronger on ac-
count of Arbogast getting back into
his old form. In their match against
the Westinghouse he bad 1856 average,
which is the record for the league.

at the game, and Berry, Hatton and
Harry Dunn undoubtedly will inter
est the fans during their return match,
as they created some excitement in
four rounds last Saturday at Vernon,
when Dunn gave Hatton a beating and
had to be content with a draw. One
other bout is to be added to the card,
making five scraps in one night.

would like to get some action against

cause he thinks Stanley is sidestepping
him all the time for easier game, and
he believes that match between him
self and Ketchel would drag a lot OF
money into the Vernon shed. Just
right. too. And Flynn probably would
clean up the champ.
