'0Rv|E OVERALL
. TW|RLs GAME IN
BIC LEAGUE FORM
Five Thousand Loyal Fans
Line Up to Pay Tribute to
Former u. of c. Star

Orvie Overall injected few of his
famous big leaugue tricks into the
game yesterday afternoon and the re-
suit was a clean cut to ! victory for
the Seals over their ancient rivals from
over the bay.
The big pitcher was ably assisted and
abetted by all his assistants, with the
exception of Mig Clarke, but all the
fans agreed that the former Chicago
Cub HEAVIER loomed up as the great at
traction of the afternoon.
Nearly 5000 of the loyal ones lined
up at the. park, more to pay tribute
TO Orvie than anything else. They had
the big, gladsome hand ready for him,
stepped into the box. All he needed
was little encouragement He did
the rest himself.
Opposed to the former University of
California star was Harry Ables, the
Oakland sOuthpaw and once the main
pillar of strength of the team. But
those good old day have passed. and
with them the effectiveness of the left
hander. He was forced out of the
game in the seventh round. after the
Seals had put two ta1lies across-just
enough to win them the game.
NO STALLING
There was no stalling nor beating
around the brush on the part of our
hopefuls. They showed in the open
ing spasm that they meant to turn the
trick as quickly as possible. Charles
laid down a. nice bunt and got away
with it. Then McArdle boosted Charles
down to second with q sacrifice, and
Jimmy Johnston beat a scratchy in
field hit which sent Charles over. John
ston stole second, but he died there
as nobody could shoot him over
Overall was wonder for the balance
of the game. He pitched ball that
should have entitled him to shutout
but a boneheaded stunt on the part
Of Clarke Grabbed him of this chance
in round seven. The Oaks were then
legitimate.
Gardner opened UP with double to
center. Coy fouled out to Cohan and
Kaylor lifted one which Johnston took
care of. Then Jerry Downes booted
an easy grounder from the bat of Ness.
GIFT TO OAKS
BY this time Gardner was on third.
He and Ness started a double steal.
Clarke heaved the ball to second a la
washer woman. Gardner slid over very
handily, and Ness got to second. This
is how the Oaks got the tally which
they did not deserve.
But the Seals showed their game
ness in their half of the inning. They
grabbed off a tally and made it goodby
and good night. Clarke was passed
and Overall famed.
Then followed singles by Charles and
McArdle. right through the Oakland in
field. The latter was good enough to
boost the Seal catcher over, and as the
Oaks were unable to do any more with
the twisters of Overall the game prac-
tically ended then and there, and the
Oaks were buried still deeper in the
cellar. Score:

STARTER DWYER

Discusses Racing and Will
Make San Francisco
Home

Richard Dwyer, the far famed horse
man and one of the greatest starters
that the game ever has known, is back
in San Francisco again, and this time
he intends to remain here. Dwyer has
purchased an elegant cafe at 217 Kear-
ny street, and all day yesterday he
was kept busy receiving the congratu-
lations of his many friends,
Dick" as he is so well known to
the horsemen from the Atlantic to the
Pacific coasts, was induced 70 go back
and start at the recent race meet at
Hammond, Ind. He reported on the
job in time to get busy and hustle up
additional horses, and he was right
at the barrier on opening day, remain
ing at the post for the first 10 days.
ut was a nice little meeting" said
Dwyer. despite the fact that the pro-
difficulties. Large crowds turned out,
and the attendance was on the increase
daily. The oral betting was in effect
and the county authorities saw nothing
wrong with it. so the game continued
to get better right along.
They start tomorrow for another
meeting of l5 days. and ! think that
this one will be a real winner. They
wanted me TO handle the barrier for
them. but 1 had this proposition in
view here, so / decided to come back
to San Francisco, and believe me, /
intend to remain here this time no
matter what happens"
Dwyer says that the long looked for
revival of the sport of kings is due.
He reports all sorts of interest through
out the east and the middle west, and he
declares that we will have racing under
the oral system here by fair year.
Dick is a shrewd observer, and he
knows conditions, SO his opinion ought
to be worth something.
according to him. the Hammond meet
was started for an experiment only,
and the promoters did not expect to
make any money out of it, But the
venture was financial success from
the outset, and 1T paid handsomely.
Horses were scarce at first but the
owners quickly fiocked in when the
good, fat purses were hung up by the

The championship pair defeated
their youthful rivals in straight sets
at 81. 7--5, 6---1, and even these fig
ures do not express the margin Of VIC
tory always in the hands of the elder
and more experienced players.
The ehallengers, by virtue of their
spectacular march through the preltm-

the season, were expected by many OF
the spectators to give Mclaughlin and
Bundy sensa tiona1 battle.

showed no indecision and played 9

The challengers played their besI

An adequate idea of the difference ir

Mclaughlin and Bundy appeared tt

Strachan and Griffin made theii
stand In the second set, but while they
carried it to deuce they were unable
