6 RACING ATHLETICS BOXING ANGELS AND WHITE SOX BREAK EVEN IN DOUBLE HEADER SERIES COAST LEAGUE TERRORS HUMILIATE VISITORS BY WHITE- WASH ROUTE IN AFTERNOON Only Handful of Fans Attend Morning Game at Vernon, When Chicago Aggregation Wins by Rally in Final Innings, but Attendance in Afternoon Is Large, and Los Angeles Club Plays in Sensational Form in Field and at Bat —Howard Gets Home Run and Three Doubles in Eight Times Up and Scores Four Runs—Hosp and Tozer in Midseason Form JAY THOSE baseball cranks who turned out twice yesterday to witness the games between the Angels and the White Sox were amply rewarded for the time and expense Involved, as they saw a pair of classy performances and had the pleasure in the afternoon of seeing the Coast league terrors humil iate the bis leaguers by the shutout route. The crowd that went out to Vermin for the morning game was disappointing In size, but the attendance in the afternoon at the game at the Chutes wen very satisfactory In size and enthu siasm. The Sox won the morning game by the score of 8 to 3. making it two straights from the Angels, but Dillon's boys got Into the gome with a ven geance In the afternoon and played In mid-season form, pulling off brilliant fielding plays and showing up like demons with the stick. Howard was the Angel star In both games, his fielding and batting being of the sensational order He got four hits and scored as many runs In eight times at bat, his stick work including one home run and three two-baggers, and accepted twelve of thirteen fielding chances, giving him a fielding average of .923 In the two games played the Angels showed up as the superiors of the visitors in every apartment' They made nine of the seventeen runs scored, got eighteen of the thirty-two hits recorded and made only four of the nine errors charged up in tmrtj two S Although Doc white, Nick Altrock, Lang and Miller were on S ndng "noli the Sox during the double-header, Hosp, Tozer. Cowley and Phil had only a bare shade the worst of the aggregate pitching honors, the fry ut youngsters shoving up favorably with the veterans of the big brush. Sosp and Tozer pitched in brilliant form in the afternoon game and always held the Sox batters safe. Dillon gave Cowley, a Los Angeles semi-professional twirler, a tryout in the morning game and. while the youngster was a bit affected with stage fright, he twirled In fine form and al lowed only live lilts in seven innings. He pitched for the RalnleM of Seattle for two years, and Dillon believes lit will develop into another high-class box artist. Errors by the Angels and their inability to negotiate the bases after getting vii them accounted for the de feat In the forenoon, although the Angel batters got as many hits as did the Sux. The Sox scored seven of their eight j runs in the seventh and ninth innings,; getting three runs off as many hits in i the seventh and turning two hits into four runs In the ninth. Errors con tributed largely to this result and en abled the Sox to win the game. Before a large crowd in the afternoon the Angels played real baseball and won the game by the whitewash route to the tune of 6 to 0. Tozer and Hosp were steady and effective throughout, and in no inning did the Sox make more than one hit and only in five innings did they connect safely with the Angel twirlers' curves. Howard was wal kpirrg the ball in fierce fashion in the afternoon, as he did in the morning, and both of his hits were two-bagger* Tozer and Hosp gave only one base on balls each and fanned half a dozen of the visitors. The Angel Holders put up an errorless game behind the pitchers, and there never was a time during this game that the fans had any fear that the Windytown boys would win out. They could not even start a bat- ting rally. These two games have put the tans on edge with enthusiasm regarding the showing that the Angels will make in the Coast league pennant race. With the boys rounding to form in such epeedy fashion, playing together like the parts of a well oiled and smoothly moving machine and hitting the ball squarely, fiercely and frequently, there is no doubt that Dillon will have as strong a team this season as last, when the Angels thoroughly outclassed the other three clubs In the pennant race. Another very pleasing element of strength is the great form that the pitchers are showing this early In the spring training. Hosp and Tozer are twirling in mid-season form, and those Who have witnessed the work Of both crack twirlers In their box work for the Angels' band In Other days will be delighted to know that both are In form good enough to hold their own with any pitcher that will draw salary from the other clubs. Both will be on regular staff duty throughout the season and should more than win a majority of their games. The double header yesterday winds up the first series between the Angels and the Sox. There will be no more games until Wednesday, when the Sox and Hogan's Vernon team will play at Vernon. The Sox will alternate be tween Vernon and the Chutes In a double series, the schedule Ing as follows: With Hog '- Vernon team at Vernon, Wednesday and Friday afternoon and. Sunday morning; with Dillon's Angels Thursday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons at the chutes.

At all events one is card- | ed for March IT, St. Patricks clay, and if the weather only will continue good for the next two weeks the horses and ' track will both be in great shape, ah the matinee brigade »n<i some profes sional racers are getting their work! regularly at Agricultural park these days and though no sensational miles have been chronicled as yet there have been several k<>o,i stiff, ones with trial! quarters at a free-for-all gait, show ing that the horses have not gone back after their long let-up and that all they need is to be stayed up suf lieiently to carry their clip. After the St. Patrick's matinee there will bo one given later for the benellt of the Elks' fund for their reunion in July and a most attractive program will be made up. At the matinee March 17 there will be a free-for-all pace, a 2:25 trot, a dash of one-half mile for 2-year-old ■■■■■■ '' 'v ' RATHBORN colts, which would bring out a field of youngsters, including Mr. Clark's Bon Voyage; colts that are nothing short of sensational, and C. A. Can field's babies by his great stud Walter Parker by Heir-at-Law, and there are others. A handicap and one of Dan Hogan's specialties, for the proprietor of the Westlake tables is celebrated from Denver to the coast for his nov elty races, as well as for his general horsemanship. The second race for the beautiful Clark cup will have a place on the program and altogether a better day's racing could not be asked for. The bill for improving Agricultural park has not as yet been presented at Sacramento. If it is, and with the amendment protecting the horsemen and live stock exhibitors, everyone will hail it with delight and do his ut most to make Agricultural park the most beautiful fair grounds In the country and with a track as good and fast as Readville, Jlass. Zolock, 2:06%, the great son of Me- Kinley, 2:11 V;, is probably the best known sire of race horse on the coast. He is a beautiful dark bay, standing 16 hands and weighing 1200 pounds. He is magnificently proportioned and is not only a race horse himself but the sire, of race horses, having gut Sherlock Holmes, 2:06%; Bystander, 2:07%; De lilah, 2:07%; Josephine, 2:07%, R. Am bush, 2:09%; Velox. 2:09% (separately timed in a race in 2:04) and a 1 number of others that can step into the 2:10 list any time they are asked to. He is ZOLOCK owned by the Davis estate at San Ber nardino and was given his record by Henry Delaney of Agricultural park. Zolock is now here for the season at University station in charge of N. S. Young. • ' One of the best looking and best bred studs at Agricultural park is Rathborn, trial of 2:10% by Peter the Great, dam by Sultan, second dam to dam of Buesetta 1, 2:06%. He is in Henry Delaney'a stable at Agricultural park and is admired by everyone who sees him. He is a most symmetrically built brown stallion about 15% hands, with the most beautiful head and neck im aginable. As a' 2-year-old he trotted a mile at Lexington in 2:22, and lie is now 8 years of age. He has had a hard life BO far and was born under an unlucky star, but as a stock horse it would be hard to find a better one, and should make a great cross on the McKinney mares out here and add a very strong strain of blood to the coast horses. Horsemen and Horses J. C. Wallace of San Diego has just returned from Pleasanton, where he purchased the stallion Kenneth C, 2:13V4. by McKinnay, 2:11%. Kenneth C is one of the best bred horses in the state, his dam being by Cresco, a son of Strathmore by HambletonlMi 10. and has four in the list, Including Tom Carneal, 2:08%. Dick McMahon visited Pleasanton last week and bought Velox, 2:09%, for $8000, and Alsandra, 2:12, and Vaticum, the 2-year-old by Bon Voyage, the last two the property of Ted Hays, for $3000 and shipped them on Wednesday with Bertie Mack, 2:08, that Doc Tanner bought for C. K. G. Billings and a couple of others. ].- C T. Hewitt sold last '■week the black mare Phyllis H. trial 2:13%. She is a well bred mare by Zambro out of a Allamont mare. Mart Demarest is a visitor at .the track very often in the mornings and is in demand to work or jog something. Silver Bill Rlley has gone to.Tucson, Ariz., to recuperate after his attack of pneumonia. He writes that the climate agrees with him and he hopes soon to be as good as ever. If good Wishes will help any he should be well by this time, for his friends are legion. • * WOLGAST AND BAKER WIND UP^ TRAINING FOR TUESDAY SCRAP Jeffries in Gotham JIMMY JEFFRIES went to Gotham, which is otherwise New York, . „ , Being quite a likely village where the seas and rivers fork; And the villagers—four million, or perhaps a trifle more- Tumbled out to greet the Big One from the far Pacific shore; Ob, they tumbled out and tarried in the streets from morn to noon, Just to get a glimpse of Jeffries and to clamor, "Kill the coon!" Many men of big dimensions visit this Manhattan isle, But they don't create a ripple that is felt for half a mile. There is Mr. Taft, for instance, who has walked the Gotham streets, Minus nods of recognition from the millions that he meets; There are statesmen, there are poets, there are plutocrats and such, But in Little Old Manhattan they are not so very much. But when Jeffries got to Gotham all the populace turned out (So the press dispatches tell us) with a universal shout; They were filled with such delight, so highly honored by the call Of the Biggest in the Business that they cheered him, one and all; And they nabbed him and they grabbed him, and rioted around. Making such a noise you couldn't even hear Long Island Sound! Oh, it's fine to be a Big One of the pugilistic stripe If you want renown in Gotham when a finish fight is ripe! What are wars, inaugurations? What are large affairs of state In comparison to Jeffries with a scrap upon the slate? Hark the villagers of Gotham —hear the rhythm of their rune As they greet the Undefeated with the clamor, "Kill the coon!" lIiIALTOIIPfOSS IP RIALTO GOSSIP BY JAY DAVIDSON SELLING platers will have their Innings today at Panta Anita park, but this fact d*es not dis courage the racegoer In this part of the country as It once did. The class of horses at Santa Anita is so high this season that the stake horse of other seasons hardly classed with the average plater of this setson. When horses of the class of Adrluche, Ethon, Fleming and Dennis Stafford are put In selling races it speaks well for the class of thoroughbreds that run at the meeting. This quartet will furnish the feature event of the card today and will travel over a course of seven furlongs. Clear skies nn.i high winds usually contribute to innking a fast track, and unless heavy showers occur before post time this afternoon race goers will see some fast time hung out in the various events. Fifteen maidens are encaged in the first race and the day will wind up with a race for non winners at the meeting. The fourth race is the only humorous affair of the day. and it would not be so funny if it was not for the conditions of the race. The conditions Indicate that stake horses are to perform, since only those horses that have not won more than two stakes since opening day are eligible, hut a glance over the list of starters, after reading the con ditions, causes the smile, as there Is not a horse in the bun.oh that any owner would think of nominating to any sort of a stake, bush or other wise However, the card as a whole I? a good one. and as all the horses have definite form, it Is possible to figure with fair deflniteness upon the prob able result. .Tnrkey Kenfiedv Is fast becoming a popular rider at Santa Anita, owing to his surprising successes this season. He was considered M a .Inke for a few ,vpeks, even after he had won his first three or four races, but when he rode three in a row Saturday the race going public sat up and took notice and then he rode another winner and caused almost a sensation. He did not always ride the best horse in the race, either hut he seems to know what to do when he gets in the siddle. Better keep an eye on this kid. you specu lative ones, as he is a comer. But-.vell will be back from Emery ville today. In all probability, and since Schilling has been set down ami McCarthy is in the hospital for the remainder of the season, good riders will be more appreciated than was the ense when so many of tbxm were hero. Monte Preston, too. will be getting back in the harness In a few days and then another star rider will be on duty. This Is the final week of the season for Jake Holtman at the Santa Anita barrier. He has served overtime on his schedule alrendy, occasioned by th° Illness of Mrs. Dick Dwyer. He will leave Saturday night for Rmervvllie. where he will finish the season, Dwyer coming south at the same time. Holt man has been an agreeable surprise to his friends and enemies by his excel lent work at the barrier this seas >n and has seemtd to bt getting better all the time. Teddy Murphy and Jim Barry are headed for New York and should ar rive there in time to be in at the "con vention" of heavyweights, which will include Jeffries, Kaufmann, Jack Rob inson and nearly all the other big guns In the stout division. Barry figures that if Jack (Twin) Sullivan can gel B sera pin New York, he ehould be INDIANA WILL SECURE YEAR'S STOCK EVENT Great Many Entries Are Promised and Little Doubt Is Entertained of Its Being an Entire Success There is every indication that In diana will secure the great stock car event of the year in automobile cir cles, the contest under the auspices of the Chicago Automobile club for the Cobe trophy. In event this great race is held a great many entries are prom ised, and there now seems little doubt of its entire success. The Haynes Au tomobile company, with a race so near at home, contemplates an entry. Thla company entered two of the Vanderbilt races and won sterling honors in both. The Haynes stock car <iuallfled for both against the big racing cars, and after being shut out of competing in the final of the first race by the racing board gained a prominent position In the second event, in which It com peted, "We have the roads in Indiana for such a contest," said Elwood Haynes at the Chicago show, "and we have had the roads all along. Our cars are test ed over them, and visitors to Indiana in cars are invariably taken aback by the splendid system of highways found In Indiana. The race will be a Bplendld advertisement for the state, and as a —ROBERTUS LOVE. quite an attraction himself. Teddy and Jimmy will be hiking for Los Angeles once more in the.near future. , Ther will be no games between the White Sox and the local Coast league clubs until Wednesday afternoon, when the final series will be started. The Angels and the Vernons will alternate every other day In playing the White Sox Yannigans. Vernon comes next, playing the visitors at the Vernon grounds Wednesday and Friday after noons. The Angels play them Thurs day and Saturday at the Chutes, and a double header will be played Sunday, the morning game being played against the Vernons at the SouthslJe grounds, and the afternoon game being played with the Angels at the Chutes. Comls key and his No. 1 team will arrive one week from Wednesday, and No. 2 will open In the north the same day. Koestner, the crack twirler that the Angels grabbed out of the Three-Eye league in 19907 and who pitched in such good form last season that he earned a regular place on the tossing staff, returned yesterday from his home in Illinois. He will line up with the team this morning in regular practice. Judge Nagle will report today also, and God win will get in Friday. Then the en tire Angel band will be on duty. It is difficult to understand why the fans did not turn out yesterday morn ing for the White Sox-Angels game at Vernon. Such support as the atten dance yesterday morning would indi cate would make continuous baseball a failure in Los Angeles, and the Coast league will not stand for it more than ono season. When the regular season opens. Sunday morning games will be a regular feature, and the fans who have howled for continuous baseball should see to it that the attendance Justifies the howl and make continuous ball a permanent feature of the league sea son by supporting the clubs in a man ner that will leave no doubt regarding its popularity. Weights are due this afternoon for the Norfolk handicap, to be run Satur day afternoon. This is the second four mile stake event in America, and al ways attracts unusual attention. X la hoped that the track will be light nine fast that afternoon, as another world record seems assured In such circumstances. The class of horses that will face the barrier in this event will be materially better than that which ever started in any similar event in America, and as long distance events always have been popular with the patrons of the sport, the atendance un doubtedly will be In accordance. Jimmy Austin still hankers after some of" that Kid Cleveland game, and has backing for a $250 side bot. In fact, Jimmy is so anxious to fight that this side bet goes for any 105 or 110 --pounder hanging around hereabouts. Jimmy has risen to the dignity of hav ing a manager and a wealthy backer, and he wants to get into training with out any further delay.

More than a thousand fans crowded into the Southslde Ath letic club parklet to see Wolgast travel ton rounds with Danny Webster, Fran kie Sullivan and Herb White, and the Mllwuukee boy more than entertained them with hiaVfast walloping. Wolgast ulwAys entertains when he la training becKse his style of milling, even in workotts, is so catchy with the fans that It hi worth going to see. The fact that he was to work out with his two-time opponent, Danny Web ster, lent un additional Interest to his workout, as Webster put up such a good tight for ten rounds In both ot his ring engagements with Wolgast that even a workout between the pair is more realistic than the average flght In the ring. It became apparent yesterday that Wolgast is not going to give away nny weight to Haker when they meet, de spite that the agreed poundage Is to bo 125 pounds at 3 o"clock Tuesday after noon. The Milwaukee boy Is fast grow ing a bit too heavy for the feather division, as Baker already has done?, :m<i when he weighed yesterday after noon he tipped the beam at 128 pounds. This means that he will be only a shade under the 125-pnund mark when welghlng-in time rolls around, anil Baker algo will scale within an ounce or two of that mark. This will send them Into the ring on practically an even weight basis. Baker Is showing all his old-time speed and cleverness In training, and the fans who have seen him work out since he started training have formed an idea that he will be entirely too shifty for Wolgast to reach with any serious result. The average fan holds the opinion that Wolgast and his ag gressive style of milling will earn th-i decision, but that it Is to be any walk over for either is not to be considered for a moment by the average fan. Baker Insists that he will whip Wol gast in a decisive manner and says that he selected the Milwaukee boy as his opponent because he desires to show the fans that he has improved greatly since his last appearance here. Ho also says that he assuredly would not pick out an opponent whom he serious ly doubted his ability to whip, espe cially in his home-coming engagement. The card for tomorrow night will he unusual In many ways, being one of more class than ordinarily is found in these popular price shows, and the fact that It is made up entirely of the little fellows, all popular favorites with the fans, lends an additional interest In th.» bouts. Not one of the scrappers en gaged for tomorrow night will weigh in excess of 130 pounds. Every one of them Is in the bantam or feather division. Although the main event naturally overshadows all other bouts on the card, there is considerable discussion among the fans regarding the proba bilities of ths Frankle Sullivan-Young Turner and other scraps. The Sulllvan- Turner affair gives promise of being as much on the cyclonic order as does tho main event. Sullivan Is Immensely popular because ho is a fighter, one of the Wolgast type, and has not been whipped since he began doing business as a professional. Turner has only one defeat to mar his record, and his quick recovery and knockout of Hugo, after being slammed to the floor and almost counted out. Indicates %hat sort of a fighter he happens to be. The other preliminary bouts average above the ordinary minor event offering, and the card Is regarded as being one of the best that McCarey has arranged in a long time.
