Coast Southpaw Pitching Sensation
of Ban Johnson's League This Summer

With the biggest curve used by
any left-hander in captivity, Vean
Gregg, last year with Portland, is
standing the American league
upon it's head this summer.
Gregg is the most sensational
pitcher since Waddell was in his
prime. He has everything the
"Rube" ever had and in addition
a head that is NOT filled with
sawdust.
Gregg says his ability to serve
wide, sharp-breaking curves which
have baffled every team in the
league, is due to the powerful
grip he acquired while working
as q plasterer. He recommends
trowel welding to ambitious
beavers.
The southpaw sensation has a
better record than Grover Alex
ander, the National league mar
vel, and a better record than
Christy Mathewson made the year
he broke in.

latter had the better of all close
work. At the end the hopes
face was battered to a pulp, while
the Pueblo man got off with a
lump over the left eye. Morris
at that, landed many terrific
blows, but Flynn seemed imperv-
ious to the gruelling and came
back with left jabs which soon
started the claret flowing. 1t
was one of the bloodiest fights
ever seen here. Morris best blow
seems to be left uppercut but he
has much to learn about the fine
points of the game.
Among the spectators at the
ringside was State Senator Fraw-
ley, author of the new pugilistic
law.
Charley White was the referee.
Praise Morris Courage.
Morris today has a broken
nose, one eye is closed, several
teeth knocked out, his cheek is
pulled to twice its normal size,
besides many cuts and bruises.
Morris courage is highly prais-
ed. He was willing but amateur
ish. While some fans think the
big fellow may improve after his
trouncing, the majority believe
that he is "hasbeen' already.

PRACTICE GAME

There will be no practice game

Vernon, Team Of Castoffs, Setting
Pace for Coast League Pennant
Happy Hogan, David WarfieId and
the BeIasco of Western Base
ball, Leading His Men to Vic
tory by just Sewing Them q
Square Deal"

Los ANGELES, Cal, Sept. Is.
With only a month or so to go.
II looks like Vernon, a team or
ganized three years ago from cast
offs of every club will cop the
Coast league bunting.
Individual players have not
been wonders, and only one man,
Jake Gipe, has been considered
good enough to. go to the majors.
If Vernon wins 1t will be through
the generalship of Wallace l..
Bray, better known as Happy
Hogan
The leader of the Hooligans is a
human dynamo. He knows the
game and as judge of players he
is a marvel. He's the Belasco of
the diamond.
81 believe you can get better
work out of the boys if you give
them a square deal. If one of my
men boots a hard one or strikes
out at critical time l don't roast
him. ! know he feels worse than
/ do. But for lack of judgment
I do correct them and find that 1t
pays. Next time he won't make
that mistake"
When Hogan took charge of the
Vernon club, he realized that his
first move was to educate the
crowd. He has mastered the in
tricacies of working an audience
into a frenzy of faithful support.
He is an actor, the Dave Warfield
of the national pastime. He keeps
the crowd on his side and, at crit
zeal moments, the crowd is al
ways with Hap.

were now considered, which he dared
not divulge to the newspapers.
Among the buildings tnat will GER
