Angels Brace Up and Check Oaks on Own Lot
Lucky Hit Puts End
To Winning Streak
Bad Bounder in Fifth Gets Away From Cook
And the Tide of Battle Is Turned
WILLIAM J. SLATTERY
valiantly for that fourteenth straight victory. The finish was 4 to 2.
The Oaks died game. They fought every inch of the way, and they
were not beaten till the last man had been declared out. But the superior
stickwork of their southern opponents
and the superior pitching of Tozer
proved a winning combination which
the dashing tossers from across the
bay could not overcome. They were
beaten fairly and squarely.
The luck of the game also rested
with the Angels. Borne team always
has a certain amount of luck running
for It, and L,os Angeles was the team
to get right yesterday. Oakland was
the favored one during the many games
played since the season opened up near
ly three weeks ago, but the switch came
at last and It also tended to work
against the league leaders.
fans to toss their hats skyward and
root and shout and wish themselves
back Into the realm of childhood once
more. Oakland got off into the lead,
but this seemed only to spur the An
gels on to more action. They were full
of fight, not subdued before they start
ed, as on the previous day.
Many of the Oakland fans blame
Manager Bud Sharpe for not taking
Pitcher Cy Parkin out of the box early
in the game. This comedy tosser was
not himself at all. He could not locate
the plate, and when he did his oppon
ents managed to locate the ones which
be slanted across. Their rally in the
fifth spasm settled it. There seemed
no chance for the Oaklanders after
that.
The luck asserted itself in the fifth
round, when a glancing bounder from
the bat of Metzger ran into a pebble
just when Cook was set to grab it. The
ball bounded into the center garden
and. as the bases were all loaded, two
of the Angeles hurried themselves home.
Maybe the Oakland ground keeper will
roll the infield today, so that the peb
bles won't interfere any more.
The Commuters started the scoring
In the third frame. After Mitze had
faded away, Page booted Parkin's
grounder, making a very glaring error
on a soft chance. Cook followed with
one to Berger, and the Oakland pitcher
was forced at second. Things did not
look bright, but Lefrrd swung in with a
ripping two sacker to deep center and
Took came all the way in. took
a chance with a dash for third, but he
was pegged out.
This lead of one tally looked pretty
good until the fifth, and then Parkin
went bad. Even during the earlier
stages of the proceedings he showed
signs of unsteadiness, and the fans kept
shouting to Sharpe to remove the wild
man. But Sharpe refused to act, sc
Parkin and the entire team suffered.
The eventful fifth was inaugurated
by Tozer, who singled against the left
field fence. Howard, who had replaced
Page at second, drove the ball to the
center garden and Berger singled over
second, Tozer rounded third and then
stopped to pose. Finally he put on a
little more steam and made for the
plate, but it was too late. He was
nailed and a run had been wasted.
But the Angels were not at all dis
heartened. Instead, they kept on
er rapping Howard and Berger ad
vanced on this single and Daley pulled
a long fly to Zacher. The fleetfooted
Howard easily spiked the pan on this
one and the score was a tie, with one
tally for each club.
Then Parkin tried to get away with
a few stunts which were foreign to the
fans who were pulling for the Oak
landers. He slipped Heinie Heitmuller
a base on balls and the big German im
mediately got away with a steal of sec.
ond. Another pass fell the way of Dil
lon and the bases were filled up.
Parkin probably figured that Metz
ger would be soft for him, but he found
himself in bad. The Angel shortstop
cracked the ball hard and sent it down
to Cook. The Oakland short fielder was
right in front of the sphere and set
for the throw, when it suddenly hit one
of those famous pebbles, bounded over
Cook's shouider and made its way into
the center garden. And in the mean
time Berger and Heitmuller were in
and the Angels held the lead.
After that it was nip and tuck till
the eighth when the southern crew
again tumbled up some more luck. Two
had been downed when Corr waited for
free transportation from Parkin.
Hughey Smith hoisted a Texas leaguer
to left field and once more the pebbles
crushed in. this time the ball bounded
away from Hoffman and rolled to the
fence for a two sacker. Core kept on
tearing and reached the plate with the
fourth taily for the southern crew.
Another little hit, might have scram
bled the eggs for fair, because the An
gels kept right on going. booted
Tozer's grounder. This seemed to un
nerve Martinoni, who had taken Par
kin's place on the mound, and he wal
loped Howard in the slats, making it a
full house. Tt was all up to Berger,
but the best he did ■was to force Smith
at third and the rally had ended.
The Commuters made their last stand
in the final round, but it netted only
a lonesome tally. Tozer lost his con
trol for just a moment and passed Hoff
man. Coy tried hard, but had only a
fly to short. Hetling followed with a
single to right and the crowd stood up
end cheered. Everybody seemed to go
mad at once as Howard booted Tierle
mann's grounder and allowed Hoffman
Krefrister, but it was all over when
ze forced Tiedemann at second.
utside of the third and the ninth
inninss Tozer had all the Oaks on his
staff. The four hits which they gath
ered from his offerings were well scat
tered, and he had good control most of
the time. No other pitcher who has
yet faced the Oaks gave vuch an exhi
bition as did the big angel.

"HOME RULE" FLAG
LUCKY FOR HARPS
Tigers Wallop Senators 14 to 8
in Raging Battle at Wash
ington Park
[Special Dispatch to The Call]
LOS AXGEL.ES. April IS. — Hogan's
Tigers maimed the Sacramento Sen
ators today. 14 to 8, in a rag-ins battle.
Patsy O'Rourke began raging early in
the fray when he was the victim of a
questionable decision at third in the
first inning: and hardly stopped for
I breath until Umpire Finney put the
I rollers under him md banished him to
the outer darkness in the seventh.
Patsy waf so reluctant to depart that
J Finney called for a policeman to help
take him from the park. O'Rourke
i vanished in the direction of the club
house before the strong: arm of the law
had a chance to lift him.
Ten minutes later a small but irate
Irishman was seen mounting , the roof
of the gTand stand. He made one awful
grab for the yellow flag , which has been
flying , there in the name of Sacramento
and unfurled from the naked pole a
! bright green creation which had "home
j rule" written all over it.
The game itself was almost as fierce
jas Patsy's outbreak.
Vernon crashed into the run column
i with two tallies in the first. They
tacked up the mates to these in the
second, scored three in the third, ln
', dulg-ed in a breathing spell in the
i fourth and fifth, got back with one in
j the sixth and another in the seventh.
I and then fell on the arm weary and
heartsick Fitzg-erald for five runs in
the eig-hth.
This final cluster looked like adding
ineult to injury, but it proved to be a
I wise provision, as the Senators g"ave a
j gx>od imitation of going down with
their heads up by hammering , out three
tallies of their own in the ninth.
The Senators are nothing if not sassy.
With a four run lead looking them in
the face they went after two runs in
I the third and got them. They showed
i signs of hanging on gamely* with an
; other run in the fourth and then
j stormed Gray from the mound with a
I furious assault in the fifth. This sally
I had netted two runs before Castleton
; came forward and subdued them. He
i easily kept them under control until
j the ninth inning revolt, and that mig-ht
i not have happened had he not felt that
; no harm could come from a slig-ht out-
I break. Score:

NEW GARDEN CLUB
FEARED BY OTHERS
[Special Dispatch to The Call]
NEW YORK, April 18.—The reopen
ing of lfjbdteon Square garden as a fight
arena will probably bring about some
radical changes in the local boxing
situation. There have been many fears
expressed that several of the flubs
will he forced out owing , to their in
ability to compete with the big- arena.
These predictions may not come true,
but it is quite likely that, for a time
at least, the Garden Athletic club will
raise havoc with the attendance at
other clubs. The prestige that will be
given a bout by the fact of its being
held at the garden will enable the pro
moters to corner all the most lmport
j ant events and reap big profits.
Although its opening show is still
a week off, the new club is already
making its presence felt. All the man
agers of the other big clubs have been
racking their brains to find ways and
means to hold their own with their
formidable rival. One of the schemes
devised to hold the attention of the
fans consists' of offering a number of
10 round star bouts for the price of
one admission and thirs make up in
quantity what is lacking in quality.
The elimination tournament to be
staged at the St. Nicholas Ahletic club
next Tuesday will bring out eight of
the best bantams that are boxtne in
the east. The men will be paired off
at. follows:
Johnny Daley and Joe Wagner, Patsy
Brannig'an of Pittsburg and Charlie
Goldman. Tommy Buck of Philadelphia
and Eddie Sherman, Kid Williams of
Baltimore and Battling Reddy. All the
bouts are scheduled to go 10 rounds.
Negotiations are under way for a
match between Johnny Coulon and
Frankie Burns to be held at the Gar
den Athletic club in the first part of
next month. Burns is willing to atrree
to any reasonable conditions in order
tto obtain a return match out of the
champion, but Coulon is holding off.
Coulon has been taking things easy at
his home in Chicago for the last few
weeks.
Two other local clubs besides the
Garden Athletic club are bidding for
his services and he has not yet de
cided which offer he will accept.

Kent on Back From Swlnetaart Fac
tory—R. H Keaton has returned from
a three weeks' trip to the Swinehart
Tire factory at Akron, 0.. where he
found his new nonskld tread the cause
of the factory doing- a larger business
than ever before in its history. Keaton !
says:
"The factory is unable to get help j
enough to make the tires the demand
calls for. My new nonsKid tread has
made a big hit in the large eastern
ritles. I stopped over at New York, j
Chicago, Cleveland, Philadelphia and
Pittsburg and found the tires In big \
demand. At New York the Swinehart l
dealer is putting on the Swinehart eel- j
lular truck tires at the rate of 200 a

LONG BUYS McCORY
DETROIT PITCHER
Former Star Slabster of New
York State League Drafted
to Seal Herd
[Special Dispatch to The Call]
PORTLAND, April IS.—Manager
Danny Long of the Seals has decided
upon a switch in hia lineup, and the
I fans tomorrow will see Watt Powell j
lin right field in Melver's niche.
Long also announces the purchase of
i a new pitcher. MeCory, from Detroit.
I MeOary wont 63 per cent of his games
last year for Albany in the New York j
>>tate league.
"I expect to sell Mundorff," said'
Long. "Nick Williams is very sweet
on him and he muy return to Portland.
I put in drafts for both Hartley and !
expecting only one, so that j
when both were allowed I had an extra
man." j
The rain today did not prevent Man- j
J ager McCredle from working the wires j
overtime In an effort to bolster up his i
fast athletes, and Mac jocularly an
nounced that he had purchased Short
• stop Butler from Cleveland and that
the classy infielder wouid be here for
the opening of the Oakland series next
Tuesday.
Butler is a right handed batter, built
something on the Ivan Olsen order, and
has held down the short patch job for
Toledo in the American association for
the last two seasons. Cleveland owns
the Toledo franchise, hence McCredie's
ability to hook him at this time. But
ler will be used either at short or
third base, where Mac has not
decided. He lueis an additional fielder,
1 and both Bancroft and Lindsay will be
i retained.
"1 expected to have Pitcher Klawit
i ter of New Orleans here this week, but
haven't heard a word concerning his
case," asserted McCredie.
When the Seals and Beavers resume
j hostilities today in their sensational
I skirmish for the honor of sitting on
the cellar trapdoor Meikle will be in
i the points for the visitors and Gilligan
I for Portland. Gilligan was suspended
for five playing days by President
Baum, but Baum was prevailed upon to
lift the ban.

Middle Weight Go Is Feature
Tonight of Dreamland Card
Pair of scrappers, xoho will appear in four round bouts at Dreamland tonight. ]
MORROW TO FILL
McGOORTY'S SHOES
Protege of Tommy Ryan to
Meet "Kid ,, George Instead
of Eddie Wednesday
Matchmaker Moffett of the Oakland
Wheelmen's club has made a change In
his card which he will stage on next
Wednesday night at the transbay club.
Instead of Eddie McGoorty, Howard
Morrow will meet Kid George, the
Stockton middle weight.
Morrow is the protege of Tommy
Ryan, one of the greatest middle
weights the ring has known. Ryan
and Morrow arrived here yesterday and
the latter will go into training at Al
White's resort today. He Is in good
shape, as it was only last Saturday
that he knoked out Bert Fagan in seven
rounds at Los Angeles.
According to reports. Morrow won
easily and showed considerable class.
It is safe to say that Ryan would not
be hooked up with Morrow unless the
latter gave great promise. Ryan was
regarded as one of the foxiest boxers
of his day, and outside of the ring he
is regarded as a shrewd individual, and
his judgment in pugilistic matters car
ries a lot of weight. Morrow must
give promise or else Ryan would not
be floating around the country with
him. The Held for a middle weight is
a good one, and Ryan is probably look
ing ahead and picking his way along.
Moffett had been trying to get
Frankie Con ley to meet Eddie Campi,
the local bantam, but, failing to hear
from Conley, Moffett offered Morrow
the chance to box George and it was
quickly accepted.
McGoorty, who was originally billed
to meet George, was unable to make
the trip west owing to sudden illness
in his family. However, McGoorty
promises to come out here later on.
George, who is now under the man
agerial wing of Jafk Costello, is down
at Milletts resort at Colma getting
into shape. The .Stockton boxer has
been fighting in good form of late, and
Costello believes that George is as good
as any of the present time middle
weights.
According to the articles, the men
have agreed to weigh in nt 158 pounds.
* * *
Billy Nolan, who is now looking after
the welfare of Abe Attell, the former
feather weight champion, is hot on the
trail of Ad Wolgast and declares that
he will give the lightweight champion
a side bet of $5,000 if he consents to
meet Attell in a contest from four to
10 rounds.
"1 can get two clubs here that are
willing to put on Wolgast and Attell in
a six or ten round bout and they are
willing to hang up a $10,000 purse. We
prefer a ten round contest. Attel is
willing to take on Wolgast at any
time."
According to dispatches from Tvos
Angeles, Tom .Tones, who is managing
Wolgast, will not allow his champion
to light any man who does not make
133 pounds" ringside. Whether or not
this will affect the proposed Ritchie
match remains to be seen. Ritchie is a
big boy who has not made the light
•weight limit for many a month, and if
he is unable to do tills now the match
may be crabbed.
This is one of th-e reasons why Nolan
is coming to the bat in favor of Attell.
He believes that Wolgast wants to try
himself out here in a short distance
battle and that he will not take a
chance with a man who can not make
the lightweight limit. Attell is only a
feather weight, but there is no doubt.
that he would give the champion a
great mill if they ever met.

UVICK AND WEEKS
FIT FOR BATTLE
Eureka Club's Program of Bouts
Promises Eight Good Mixed
Millings
Billy Uvick, the Nebraekan who Iβ
eeeking- the middle weight title, will
appear at Dreamland pavilion tonight
in a four round bout with Billy Weeks,
the crack middle weight from Redwood
City. This is the feature attraction of
the Eureka club's show, which is made
up of eight bouts between boxers of all
sizes.
Uvick's ability as a boxer is not very
well known here, but in the east and
middle west he is regarded as a very
capable performer and a contender for
the middle weight crown. He came
here in search of a match with either
Frank Klaus or Eddie McGoorty, but
being unable to catch on with either for
the time being he decided to take h
whirl at the four round game to allow
the fans to see him in action.
Weeks is a good man. In his recent
fights here he has made good and he
seems to be improving all the time.
Uvick will find the Redwood City man
a tougher proposition than he figures.
The bout is scheduled to go four rounds,
but there should be plenty of action
to It.
The heavy weight bout between
Charley Miller, the giant motorman,
and Joe Hanson of Los Angeles prom
ises to be a whirlwind affair. Both
men weigh in the neighborhood of 250
pounds and are about the biggest men
in the ring.
Willie Hoppe, the local lightweight
who has become a prime favorite with
the fans as a result of his aggressive
battles, will take on Lee Johnson, a
negro boxer from Oakland. The negro
is clever and can hit, and a warm bout
should result.
Ray Bafughman. the Petaluma feath
erweight, and Harry Dell of North
Beach are down on the card for a four
round bout. The lads are fast and
willing performers and usually supply
plenty of action. Abe Label, the crack
lightweight, and young Watson will
hook up. Rufe Turner, the veteran
negro boxer of Stockton, will meet
Tommy West of Spokane. Rufus Wil
liams and Mike Radovich will clash at
the lightweight mark. In the curtain
raiser Dummy Thomas and Jack Doug
las, 118 pounders, come together.
City Junior Leaguers

The City Junior league will hold a
monster benefit dance at Jefferson
Square hall tonight. A large attend
ance is looked for. as among , those
expected are the OakUmd, Ixts Angreles

Manager Bud Sharpe of the Oaks
will lead the grand march with Mrs.
Sharpe.
The Mitchell cars will convey the
Los Angeles and Oakland teams from
the hotel to the dance hall.

78 TO COMPETE IN
GOLF TITLE PLAY
Qualifying Rounds in N. C. G. A.
Tourney Begins Today on
Oakland Links
H. McDONALD SPENCER
Tomorrow morning the knights of
the niblick will trip bravely over to
Oakland to play in the qualifying round
of the Northern California Golf asso
ciation championships at the Oakland
links. The meeting will continue over
Sunday and the succeeding Saturday
and Sunday until the f.nals are reached.
Dr. James Kavets an entrant from
the Presidio Golf club, is worthy of
special mention. Doctor Eaves is a re
cent arrival from Scotland, where ha
played on the celebrated links at Car
noustie —the home of the "several
Smiths" professionals—-and has a repu
tation of being a scratch man there. Hβ
i has been playing excellent golf at the
. Presidio, and recently defeated Camp
■ bell Whyte, in the continuous tourna
; ment, for first place, although I am mi
i formed that in private matches Whyte
I holds his own, giving him two bisques.
It is to he hoped that the doctor will
come through well toward the finals, as
it will be interesting to chronicle a
new- name in these events.
There are 78 entrants in all. which
is quite a banner representation. The
Presidio club enters 16 players, while
the San Francisco Golf and Country
club musters only IS. As might be ex
pected, owing to the tournament be
ing on their own course, the Claremont
club has the largest entry list with 4*5,
Marin county contributing one, ,while
Burlingame and Menlo are conspicuous
by their absence.
