 GIANT BATTLE
Old Rivalry Stimulates the Strengthened Teams to Supreme Effort This Af- ternoon at Tempe-Hard Game is Promised

TEMPE, May 3.-Preparei to en- gage in the hardest fought for game played in the valley this year and each determined for weeks past to win. the Tempe and Mesa baseball teams will cross bats on the Tempe park diamond this afternoon at 3 o'clock. To say that the game is be- ing looked forward to as the best of the season is not eNaggerating in the least. Both teams have been practicing for weeks in anticipation of this afternoons fray and the en- tire southsde is worked up to un- surpassed interest.
 Tempe and Mesa always have been strong competitors in baseball, yet on ali occasions in the past two seasons the former nine has come out victor ious. As much as fourteen innings have been required to beat Mesa. for Tempe never took the lead by more than a few tallies.
 Since a hard fought game in Mesa a number of weeks ago when Tempe won by a score of 4 to ,, the Gem City boys have not been playing. In the meantime they have acquired considerable new Uaterial and have rut in each evening on the diamond in hard practice. Win or die" is their motto. one that has been stand ing for weeks in view of this after rOOn'S game
 Yet the Tempe boys have not been outclassed by Mesa They have been practicing hard and constantly ac- quiring new material. If practice makes perfect Tempe will some day sport q baseball team that will find no match in this part of the country.
 Tempe will lineup with a number Of changes today. Hatch. the regular catcher has returned to the coast. In his place. Joyce, an old league player is holding out. Olivier, Tempe's us- ual pitcher will work in the box Griffen retains his place on the mi tial sack. On second has been sta toned Hudson. late from Tucson where he played with the Champion Brannen nine of that city. Aside from his work in the field he is no boy with the bat in hand. K. Mouer has been given regular position at third. J. Spikes completes the in- field at short. In the garden will be Mullen, Lafevre and Oviedo, all old men.
 Besides the crowd which Tempe will turn out, over q hundred are eX- pecteG from the Gem City Special rates have been granted by the rail- road company and an excursion is to be run reaching here about } o'clock.
 Both hines are fully confident of winning. and besides Tempe has even signified it's willingness to put up a little cash. Mesa said something re- lative to this in times past too. But at all events the game is going to be hard fought from start to finish and well worth seeing for ong who has any baseball enthusiasm in him at all

play the ball that has the biggest
bonus attached to it, rather than the
one they like best.
McDermott was appointed by sew

refused to give up the ball used by the
Massachusetts amateur champion In

Mcnamara won the Metropolitan
open and ssachusetts open with
in two consecutive years, and as the
latter player is the golf salesman of a

balls there could be only the best

stance mentioned.
Take Advantage of Opportunities.
Professionals would be foolish not
to take advantage of opportunities to
pick up money this way as well as
setting a figure on their play in pro-
fessional matches. The demand for
Ray and Vardon exhibitions may not
be as numerous as would have been
the case had they won, for first and
second money at the head of the best
American field ever assembled would
have made them wonderful drawing
cards
Estimates from $4,000 to $25, 900 are
spoken of in everyday conversation of
what the Englishmen may pick up by
their play in this country. Golf is
here to stay, Vardon won every match

1t was reported that the National
course, whose nucleus for member

refused to put up a purse of $500 for
an exhibition, but the Englishmen
didn't come down in their price, say
ing they had about all the exhibition
dates scheduled ahead that they coul0

Britons to Play at Chicago.
Chicago is to have a glimpse of the
nOtables when Chick" Evans ana
Warren K. Wood, past and present
Western amateur champions, will
play foursome with them.
Naturally the amateurs are not go
ing to try to get any money. 1t
would end their amateur rating, and
it is also a cinch that the Englishmen
are not going to go to Chicago, down
South, and all over the lot for their
health.
There were many bets made at the
Country Club Saturday, one of the
best being a 10 to l shot that Tom
Stevenson took for 500, thereby win
ming a thousand dollars by Ouimet'S
fine play.
The chances of the amateur against
two veterans, where he was sand
wiched in, and the odds more than
to l against him, makes the result
appear all the more remarkable. This
fact was the cause of much rash bet
ting and bets from to up to 10 to
were heard on all sides. Thousands
changed hands.

Professionals Well Paid.
1t is much Of a question just what
the big professional golfers get for

nized as a gentlemans sport, it has
many sides that may be turned 10

Ing made from golf
Edward Ray, who was one Of the
great trio in the triple tie play-off, re-
marked that even though he finished

As it was generally known that he
had made three 5000 bets that he

All golfers like to have a little
something on the side when playing
match, and the fact that Nardon and
Ray must have left little tip at home
for their friends to follow was borne
out when cable arrived at the club
house on the night after the qualify
ing round, announcing that there was
$4,000 in London ready to 90 up at l

Englishmen would win the United

Significant Remark.
When Ray says he finished $500 to
the good it has a note of significance
attached. Il might mean that his side
bets had aggregated nearly treble

inning, allowing one hit and no runs.
