Boy Wonder Earns Berth With Bears in the Second Game Tempe Has Won; Visitors Uncover Streak of Pure Luck in Eighth
Special to The Republican,

MESA, April 23.-After seven inn ings of ir-tight baseball with Mesa, claiming the big end of a to 0 score. Tempe struck a pure streak of luck in today's game and succeeded in putting across four tallies, taking with them another victory as hard fought as the one they took last Sun day from the Jewels.
 The contest was pitchers duel from the start, and that Mack NeV- itt who was in the box for the Bears has won permanent berth is evi- denced from the record he made in letting the heavy hitting Mesa bunch off with but four bingles. Mike At
 taWay pitching for Mesa held the
 visitors to five hits up to the eighth
 inning
 Todavs game through the first
 seven innings was purely a pitchers exhibition, the two moundsmen work ing slow and hard for every gain The Jewels scored one run in the second
 on a hit and another in the second when Mack Nevitt filled the bases and then walked the batsmen, forcing d tally across. After that he tight
 ened up and through the remaining seven innings the Mesa boys were | only good for three scattered hits. Tempe's winning streak came in 1 the eighth. Bauer hit, stole second and went on home when Ernie Will | liams, hampered in his fielding by | some of the miniature trees that adorned the outer gardens, dropped | Thurmans fly in deep left The first of the ninth opened with Stewart at
 the bat and he touched the first ball ! over for liner into center field that took lucky bounce over the fence
 and developed into a home run. That l stunt tied the score and the next
 batsman touched Mike Attaway for
 another bingle with the subsequent 1 result that two more runs were put | across in quick succession. | Ladies day proved a novel attrac-
 ton and more than two hundred fans
 ana Idhhettes were out to see the 1 game.

In Second of Three Game Series, Bandits Trim Smi- ley's Maroons; Miller Holds Maroons ; Hits Winning Single

Once again the Outlaws defeated the Maroons, and the come back try-outs of Jose (Smiley) Sonoqui are still hampered by the inability of his team to make enough hits at the right time to win for him.
 It was d close game they played on the Polk street grounds yesterday, the Outlaws winning to ?, all same Chi cago damned the Tigers.
 A ninth inning rally, in which Pitcher Miller figured strong, won the game After scoring two runs in the first (mainly on errors) the Maroons were held runless by Miller Miller stalled the opposition with these two runs and six scattered hits, and then clouted out the clean single that drove in the ninth inning run.
 Captain Fin Westfall of the Out laws stood way out in centerfield, making difficult catches of what seemed to be safe hits. Smiley, cap tain-pitcher of the Maroons. pitched with his noodle. but the heavy hitting Bandits proved too much for his carly season delivery.

 The Outlaws will probably take on l the newly organized White SoX as soon as the latter get in trim Indeed. they made the offer yesterday to play the Sox for the nifty new green and white suits that are soon to grace the forms of the latest additions to the amateur ball aggregations of the valley. But in the meanwhile, the Outlaws desire to have a word with those two husky south side teams, the Bears at Tempe and the Jewels at Mesa. The good old days of inter-city ball will 1 then be revived for the north as well as for the south side of the river.

The Americans were hampered .by postponements, as was the National. and there was a resultant greater shakeup in the league standing.
 New York assumed Boston's place at the head of the lague. The Yankees won four games and lost one through good batting by Baker and Gedeon, and mid-season pitching. IL took them eleven innings. however, to defeat Washington Saturday. New York meets the Red SoX during the coming week and stiff fight for the lead can be expected.
 St Louis continued it's good work Its fifteen-inning battle Saturday with Cleveland to l-l tie was the longest same yet played this season.
 Boston. after losing two games earlier iB the week to Washington. lost two more to Philadelphia Friday and Sat urday. Carrigan's men played well afield. but at bat and in the box there appeared Co be something lacking
 Detroit through fine hitting and steady work in the box, spurted dur ing the week, winning four games to one lost.
 The White Sox played erratically. Their batting was much weaker than is to be expected from a team having Eddie Collins. Jackson, FOurnier and other stars. However, they found a place in the first division by defeating Detroit today.
 Batting hard one day and weakly the next Washington slumped slightly. Walter Johnson met his first defeat Monday at the hands of the Red SOx.
 Cleveland showed less winning form than during the first week, losing a i2inning battle Monday and tieing St nrflz in iuuiuug Saturday
 Connie Mack's Philadelphia aggrega- tion entered the games won" column Friday by defeating the Red Sox and continued the good work by another victory Saturday.
 Rain interfered with some of the American Association games which be- gan last Tuesday. but early results indi- cate the race will be close. as every team has won at least one game.

While the trout fishing season al ready has been opened in many DOT tions of the Pacific Coast, California's anglers have been forced this year to wait until May l before they are able to indulge in their favorite out door sport The streams of Marin, Alameda, Contra Cista and other counties easily accessible to the bay cities are reported unusually prolific of fish and a banner season is pre- dicted on all sides. Reports from the country districts in the watersheds beyond Hayward, Livermore and Pleasanton are to the effect that the trout are especially large and abun- dant.
 While the trout fishing season opens throughout California on May l. Lake Tahoe. which has been heav- fly fished, is an exception to the rule. Here the opening date has been fixed for June l.
