England Agog
AS Derby Nears

LONDON, June .. tU.P)-The ap-
proach of derby day found England
in an almost unprecedented state
of excitement over the race which
since 1880 has drawn its crowds to
EPSON Downs.
Probably a throng of 100000 will
crowd the rolling course tomorrow
when some 30 colts face the bar
rier for the mile and half test
that will crown the winner the un-
disputed three-year-old champion
of the year.
Interest has been redoubled by
the rich sweepstake prizes which will
be decided by the race, bringing
comfortable sums to many in the
British Isles and overseas. Nearly
$l0,000,000 will be distributed to
holders of tickets in the Irish sweep
stakes and S2,675, 800 in the Calcutta
sweep. The London stock exchange,
Canadian and other
sweeps bring the total to SIS 100000
or more.
The total value of the stakes, re-
gardlesS of whether any. other
scratches reduce the field, will be
s69,500, of which $56,650 goes to the
winner, $6950 to the second horse,
S3472 to the third and $2425 to the
breeder of the winner.

HESS DECLARES
PACHO GREATER
THAN CHAMPION

While coast newspapers have been
inclined to give more space to
Goldie Hess than to Bobby Pacho,
following the latter's sensational
victory over the Ocean Park boy
Friday night, those interested in
boxing know that Pacho's victory
has made a great impression upon
followers of the fight game.
The wise ones" couldn't see
Bobby as winner over the blonde
slugger, yet the local idol beat
Goldie at his own game. standing
toe to toe and slugging it out with
him.
A letter received by the Press
from Bert Morse, Bobby's manager,
says no less an authority than
Hess himself asserted that neither
Tony Canzoneri, the worlds light
weight champion, or Jack (Kid)
Berg, the English boxer, is "one
two three, with Pacho.
Morse is now trying to get Bobby
an outdoor fight at Wrigley field
this summer with CanZoneri, with
the championship at stake. Wheth-
er the champion will come out to
the coast is not yet certain.
Bobby is to fight here Friday
night, with Young Papke as his
opponent. Papke is a good scrap
per. He is not Billy Papke Jr.. son
of the old middleweight cham
pion. The latter fights under his
right name, Billy Papke Jr.
Young Papke is lightweight
who took the name Papke for ring
purposes. He had made 1t tough
for some of the good boys on the
coast and ought to give Bobby a
good workout Friday night.
This will be the last chance val
ley fans will have to see Pacho in
action for a long time as his con-
tract for appearances with the local
club ends with Fridays fight and
in view of his rise to pugilistic
prominence, is not likely to be re-
newed, the kid being due for big
ger pastures from now on.
Harry Woodbury. is working out
a supporting card that will be in
keeping with the main event.
Bobby ought to be in for big
hand from the home town folks,
and we hope there will be a big
turnout to see him perform.

PRESENT SERIES
IMPORTANT FOR
BIG LEAGUERS
BY LEO ii. PETERSEN
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, June 2. U.P)-The
present western invasion of the
eastern teams of the National
League is expected to go long
way toward determining the pen
nant chances of st. Louis, Chica-
go, Brooklyn and New York.
The Cardinals and Cubs, consid-
cred the strongest of the western
contenders, must meet the Giants
and Robins, the class of the eastern
clubs, in eight games within the
same number of days. New York
opened a four game series with the
1880 pennant winners today while
Chicago entertained Brooklyn in
the first of four contests at Wrig-
ley field.
Should Chicago and ST. Louis
win most of their eight games
against the two eastern teams, most
baseball fans will agree that the
1881 pennant will be won by one
of the western clubs.
On the other hand, should eth
er the Giants or Robins win a ma
jority of the contests, they would
come to the front as championship
possibilities. Despite its bad start,
Brooklyn still is likely to be fact
or in the race. 1t was on their
first western invasion last year
that the Robins struck their stride,
winning II of 16 games to advance
from seventh to first place.
Both the Cardinals and the Cubs
have demonstrated that the other
western clubs, Cincinnati and Pitts
burgh, are below par. The Reds
and the Pirates have supplied the
Cubs with 18 of their 81 victories.
The Cardinals have taken 16 games
from the two teams, and in addi-
ton have won six from Chicago to
demonstrate their superiority over
the western sisters in their circuit.
Lead Increased
st. Louis increased its lead over
the second place Giants to game
and half yesterday by defeat
ing Cincinnati to in II innings
in the only major league game
played. A single by Adams, scor-
ing Wilson who had doubled,
brought in the winning run. The
Reds came from behind to tie the
score in the ninth inning and had
the bases loaded with one out in
the twelfth, but Flint Rhem re-
lieved Bill Hallahan and set the
next two batters down without diff
ficulty. Harvey Hendrick, first
baseman, was the leading hitter OF
the contest with three doubles and
two singles in five times at bat.
The second intersectional COM
petition of the year may mean little
in the American League unless the
western teams are able to stop the
Philadelphia Athletics. On the
Athletics first swing through the
west they built up the foundation
for their l7-game winning streak.
However with cleveland playing
the ball that gave the Indians the
league lead during the fore part of
the season, it is possible that the
Athletics may be stopped and make
the 1881 race in the Junior cir
cult four cornered affair between
Philadelphia, New York, Washing
ton and the Indians.

LOS ANGELES, June 2. U.P)-A

Gil Payne, of Louisville, here last

The fight was awarded to Payne

right side had been fractured. The
Kentuckian had slight lead when
the fight ended.
A Suggest between Harry Good
land and Joe Peregrina, local mid
dleweights, was stopped in the sixth
round and awarded to Goodland on
a technical knockout after each had
been on the floor.
Jackie Mandell and Harvey Wal
Under, local lightweights, fought six
rounds to a draw.
Harry Burke, local lightweight,
won a decision in four rounds over
Rudy Cotton, also of Los Angeles.

the feelings Of the Nevada Califor-
MIA Electric company baseball club
in a nerve wracking comedy of er-
rors that resulted in a score of 25
to l3, all in favor of the bakery

Numerous errors, coupled with u
bases on balls and 18 hits, netted
the Cramer score. Price was the
individual star of the game, get
ting six runs, four triples and two
walks in seven trips to the plate.
Patterson and Dilbeck bolstered the
otherwise weak power company at
tack by accumulating half their

These two teams are tied for the

end up with the championship.

Nevada Man To
Visit Here On
Stock Problem

Joe Wilson. farm advisor of Elko,
Nevada, will visit Imperial Valley
next week TO consult B. A. Harri-
gan, agricultural commissioner, con-
cerning the winter feeding OF live
stock ii the valley His visit is a
direct result of trip Robert Hays,
manager of the El Centre Cham
Der Of Commerce, recently made to
the annual livestock fair at Elko.
Conferences with those interest
ed in bringing livestock here for
winter feeding will take place af-
ter Wilson's arrival on Monday.
Upon a favorable report by Will
son and the proposed reduced
freight rates it is believed num-
bers OF sheep and cattle will be SEM
here from Elko, center of a large
stock producing section.
Personal contacts are being made
with cattle and sheep growers in
Utah and other western states
where winter feed is lacking. Since
Imperial Valley is said to be the
only section in the west which has
an abundance of feed, growers are
looking toward this section to sup
ply the means of fattening stock
for western markets.
