I can air my favorite prejudice, and a
letter to the editor will do no good. I can't
be fired. But why go on? I'm little tin
god on wheels with every soul at my mercy.
One trouble only with this one-day business.
I'm like the little girl who has nickel and
hates to spend it. AS long as she doesn't,
everything in the shop which costs nickel
is potentially hers. Once she buys some
thing, all the others are lost to her There
are so many kinds of column want to write
that hate to settle down to any one.

PACIFIC COAST
LEAGUE GAMES

The San Francisco Seals, pre-
season favorites for the 1884 Paci-
fic Coast league pennant, invaded
Los Angeles today for their first
clash with the club which appar-
emily has the pennant sewed up
tight, the Los Angeles Angels.
Schedule vagaries kept these two
clubs apart until the eighth week
of the season. AS they clash, Los
Angeles is in first place, nine full
games ahead of the second place
club, and the Seals are in fourth
place, liz games behind the An
gels.
The San Francisco club has been
a disappointment all ason.
Strengthened by trades and pllr-
chases that saw their infield re-
built, their catching department
changed completely and their hurl-
ing staff augmented, they were
counted on to make a real race OF
the current pennant chase. But in
ability of Zinn, Gibson and Ballou to
win steadily, an injury to Catcher
McMullent and batting weakness
wrecked the club.
The other San Francisco team,
the Mission Reds, staggered home to
meet Hollywood after losing six
games last week to the Angels. Re-
ports of dissension between the club
owners and Manager Gabby Street
were current as the Missions reach
ed their home lot.

hands for he kept right in the same
frame of mind and gave Beechey a
walk for good measure. This proved
his undoing, for Williams knocked
a vicious single through third which
scored the maestro with the tying
run and put Beechey in position to
score the winning counter.
Hammerslaugh was safe on a
fielder's choice and Beechey, at
tempting to score on the play, was
nailed at the plate on a perfect
throw by the second sacker of the
Coca Colas. Hurst was safe on an
infield error, Jepway was also safe
on another wobble and Briggs came
through with a stinging single
through third, three runs being
chased over the home plate and the
game was then in the bag. Jepway
was the final out when he was
caught off third on a peg from
Brown.
The Coca Colas failed to do any
thing in their half of the ninth,
and fluttering hearts and tangled
nerves were given an opportunity to
rest at last and get in shape for
tonight's game which promises to
furnish plenty of thrills and oodles
of excitement. The principals in
this game are the Studebakers and
Cramer Bakers who will fight it out
for first place in the league.

NEW YORK, May %. - Four de-
feats in five startsl That's the re-
port at the moment on the mighty
Yankees western invasion.
It's too early to say this is the
handwriting on the bullpen, but it
indicates that Marse Joe McCar-
thy's pitching staff is stricken with
the same travel sickness that ruin
ed the Yanks' pennant drive last
season.
His flinging corps appeared robust
and rugged in the east, but little
train ride apparently sapped virility
and changed them into powder
buffers. Only one New York throw
er worked a complete game on the
midland plains. Lefty Gomez beat
the Tigers.
But the Tigers won two encoun-
ters, and Cleveland downed the
Yanks twice straight.
The Indians are only two and a
half games behind the league-lead-
ing Yanks after beating them yes
terday, 8 to S, behind Willis Hud-
Inns effective pitching. He allowed
13 scattered hits. Earl Averill led
the Cleveland 14-hit attack on Uhle
and Van Alta with two homers and
single in three trips. He drove in
five runs.
Detroit kept pace by shading

the furious battle of teeth and
hoofs. Shasta PEBBLES, the eight
year-old victor, was not hurt badly.
John Golf of Tulsa, who was
bringing the horses to Riverside for
the current race meeting said Quar-
terdeck was valued at $500.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., May %.
Jimmy McLarnin is approaching
the fighting edge for his welter title
defense against Barney Ross at New
York Monday night. He opened up
for the first time in training yes
terday and gave his sparring part
ners, Texas Kid Wallace and Tony
Scarpati, a severe battering.
FERNDALE, N. Y, May 22.-Bar-
ney Ross figures that his title fight
with McLarnin will go the full Is
rounds at such gruelling pace that
the man in the best condition will
win. And he figures he will be that
man because "I am in the best
shape it is possible to attain"
LOS ANGELES, May %. - Two
former featherweight champions
meet as headliners on the Olympic's
weekly fight card tonight when Kid
Chocolate tangles in 10-rounder
with Tommy Paul.
With both fighters past their
prime, the outcome was considered
a tossup. Chocolate, once the new
champion, and Paul. who enjoyed
brief championship reign in N. B. A.
territory, were matched as substi-
tutes for the King Levinsky-Art
Lasky bout that fell through when
the Kingfish slipped away to Chi
cago.

ROAD GAMES INDICATE YANKS
NOT SO STRONG AS BELIEVED

&, Washington, 6 to 5. Manager Mick
Fey Cochrane's pinch single in the
ninth with the bases loaded drove
in the winning marker. The Brown;
sank from fifth to seventh position
when walloped, 7 to 3, by the Ath-
letics. Foxx, McNair and Cramer
! made homers for the AS. 1t was
| the eighth of the season for Foxx.
Sugar" Cain held the Browns to
seven safeties, one homer by Cliff.
This victory boosted the AS to
sixth place, just a notch beneath
the Red Sox who nosed out Chicago,
l3 to 10, when four hits and an er-
ror in the 10th gave Boston three
runs. Manager Jimmy Dykes tied
the count for the Chisox in the
eighth by blasting out four bag
ger with the bases loaded. Six Chi
cago runs we're scored in that
frame.
Giants Beat Cards
In the National league, Pittsburgh
replaced the Cardinals at second po-
sition by drubbing the Phillies, II
to 4. The Pirates hammered Pearce
and Moore for II hits, with Harry
Lavagetto and Arky Vaughn lead
ing the attack. Harry drove in five
runs with homer and two doubles,
and Vaughn hit a homer, double
and two singles.
The Cards bowed to the Giants,
5 to 2, when suddenly confronted by
an emergency pitcher, Joe Bowman.
Joe was called to the mound be-
cause Freddy Fitzsimmons was acci-
dentally hit in the spine by Jim
MONEYS bat, while the latter was
hitting fungoes before the game
Bowman limited the Cards to eight
hits. Travis Jackson contributed a
New York homer with mate
aboard.
The league Leading Cubs edged
Brooklyn, 10 to 8, with three-run
squirt in the ninth. In that frame,
Gordon Phelps made a Chicago ho-
mer with Judges aboard. Then
Chuck Kleins single with the bases
full drove in the marginal tally
The Cubs hammered four FINGERS
for II hits, while the Dodgers made
eight off five pitchers, including ho-
mers by Taylor, Lopez and Koen-
ecke.
Cincinnati at Boston was washed
out.

"A certain member of the Walker

here that Mr.. Fischer's silence is
not founded on snobbery, but just
natural dislike of talking, plus a
shyness that is as charming as ii is
