SEALSCAPTIRE
SECOND CONTEST
IN COAST SERIES

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. g. UE)-
The San Francisco Seals took a firm
grip on the Pacific Coast league
pennant last night when they took
the second consecutive game from
the Hollywood Stars.
The Seals won again last night,
7 to 5, after knocking Frank She'll
enback, HollyWood's league leading

exciting contest that six hurlers saw
service.
The teams will play the third
game of their pennant series to-
night and then will go to Los Ar
geles tomorrow for the remainder
of the games. The Seals need only
two more victories to take the pen
nant, while the Stars must win four.
The Stars were leading to l
when the Seals opened up their big
guns. Hollywood had scored on a
homer by Dave Barbee in the fifth
inning, a double by Barbee and a
double and single by Brannon.
Then in the sixth Shellenback
walked two Seals. Jimmy zinn,
pinch hitting. found him for dou-
BILE to score Julian Vera. Mealey
scored a minute later when Johnny
BaSsler dropped the ball.
Vance Page relieved Shellenback
but met even more trouble He was
touched for six hits in the seventh
and the side was retired only after
three runners had been forced at
second. Three runs were scored.
The line score:
Hollywood oil 210 0OO-5 9 ?
San Francisco 0l0 OH 30X-7 l3

Otis jackson, Dawson, absorbed

Otis Jackson, Dawson, absorbed
everything the Scarlet Flash OF
Minot had to offer to lose five rounds
and the decision on the headliner of
the Elks fight card at the World War
Memorial building Tuesday night.
The Flash had things is own way
all during the fight but was unable
to put over the sleep producer. In
the final seconds of the fourth
stanza, the Minot man connected
with series of stiff jolting punches
with telling effect and had Jackson
out on his feet when the bell rang.
The rest period helped the Dawson
fighter, however, and he came out In
te next stanza looking for more.
The Flash caught most of Jack
sons punches on his arms and shoul-
ders. He used an effective left jab
to keep his opponents head bobbing,
electing to keep his heavy guns in
reserve during most Of the contest.
Jackson lived up to his reputation
as a rugged game fighter. Belted all
over the ring for five rounds, he de-
fled the Flash's efforts to put him
away and still was banging away at
the final bell.
The headliners fought on even
terms during the first canto but the
Minoter caught Jackson with q SER
les of wicked jolts in the closing Sec
onds of the second round which left
the Dawson boy blinking. From that
point on there was no doubt as to
the issue.
In the semi -windup, Jimmy Todd,
Medina, won from Kid Vandie, Minot
Mexican, in a bout that was nip and
tuck all the way. Vandie came back
to take the final Stanza but was un-
able to overcome Jimmy's early lead.
The fighting was fast and hard and
earned the applause Of the crowd.
The Tuffy Mosset- Frank Hanish
affair ended up in fiasco. Mosset
was disqualified in the third for hit
ting the Fargo boy while both were
on the floor in the third. Mosset left
the ring with the crowd booing him
Justify.
Kid Kramer, Saskatoon, SaSk., out
pointed Ed Foster Of Minot in four
by wide margin. Foster took neat
pasting but put up determined fight
and was in there swinging all the
way.
Kid Engles, Medina, scored knock
out over Kid Forsythe, Bismarck, III
the second round of scheduled four
round preliminary. The Bismarck
boy received a rousing oveZion from
the fans for his exhibition for game
ness after being hurt. Laid low
time after time, the Kid didn't know
when he was licked, bobbing back up
without taking advantage Of the
count.
Kid Brooker and Sonny Schlosser,
colorful Mandan youngsters, fought
the best fight Of their careers in the
curtain raiser. They failed away at
one another through four lusty
rounds to make merry battle of It.
The fans gave the youngsters rous-
ing applause.

Burnie Maurek, state game and fish
commissioner, said the low level OF
water prevailing In many Of the lakes
in the state during the fall Of 1881

Cubs and Braves Acquire New Talent
Hofnsby Uses Wrigley War
Chest to Recruit Promis-
ing Material

New York, Dec. 16.-(Re1f the
Chicago Cubs and Boston Braves fail
to finish higher In the next National
League race than they did In the last,
ut will not be because they didn't try.
Figures released today by the
leagues service bureau reveal those
two clubs have acquired more new
talent in preparation for the 1882
race than any Of their rivals.
The Cubs, backed by William Wrig-
ley's war chest, have added Is players
to their roster, not counting the deal
that brought them pitcher Burleigh
Grimes in exchange for Hack Wilson
and Bud Teachout. The Braves have
acquired 13 new men including Arthur
(The GreaD Shires.
Brooklyn, with IL additions to its
squad, got all but one Of them by the
simple process Of recalling ten play
ers and manager Charlie Moore from
the champion Hartford club of the
Eastern League.
Cincinnati and Pittsburgh, with 10
newcomers each, Philadelphia with
nine, and New York and st. Louis,
with eight apiece, round out the list.
The Cubs, with q total of 10 minor
league stars either drafted or bought,
probably have parted with more hard
cash than any of their rivals. Owner
Wrigley, at Manager Rogers Horns
by'S recommendation, has purchased
eight players outright. Cincinnati
and Pittsburgh each has put money
on the line for seven.
Next to Brooklyn, the champion st.
Louis Cardinals have spent the least.
The Red Birds contended themselves
with bringing in seven choice speci-
mems from their various outposts and
buying one young pitcher, Albert
Fisher, from Keokuk, Ia.
