ANGELS PLAY LIKE CROSSROADS BOOBS;
VERNON SMOTHERS THEM WITH RUNS
Los Angeles* Fielders Put Up Ragged Exhibition of National Pas
time and Fail to Give Tozer Anything Like Fair Support, Pil
ing Up Seven Misplays, in Addition to Others That Were
Excused—Hogan and Delmas Put Out of Game for
Doing Too Much Talking, Villager's Manager
Ordered Off Grounds After Being Warned
JAY DAVIDSON
Playing liks a biR: bunch of boob*or crossroads rube*, the Angels go( a
■well deserved licking yesterday In the second panic of the series with the
Village cutups. Seven inexcusable Oils plays enabled the, Hogan-Maler confed
eracy to win the game by the score of ]0 to 4. and boost the suburban lads
■up to an equality with the leaders of the pennant procession. Both teams
started out like they would make the gnme a slugfest, the Angels coring- a
pair in their half of the first, when Vernon had taken the lead with three.
Two more were, scored by the Rerry bOWS in the second, and the visitors again
got on even terms in the third by tallying once. Run getting by the Angels
d ;ift<-r the second innlns?, as WUlett fettled down In the third and al
lowed only throe scattering hits In the. remaining seven innings. Hogan and
'his clouters kept busy, however, until they had taken R commanding lead.
■ scoring two In the flfth, one in the sixth and three in the seventh.
it was a Kami- that tiio fans <io not want to see the home teami play very
often, as the Angri end of the exhibition t. .is ho raned that thsir boasted
i ]as» reamed to be rather exaggerated. They could not liit the WUlett brand
nf carvei after the seoond inning-, and they did io much weird playing In
the field that the form reversal was quits a disappointment However, as the
Angels had won the opening day pnmo with Vernon hy something reeembttng
«. fluke, the fan« seemed to be rooting yesterday for the Villagers to finish on
the lonp end of the scurf, and were well pleased when they did so.
Thrrv were several ilde events during the period of play that helped out
Considerably in making the game both Interestirig and exciting. Hap Hogan,
director genera] of the Villagers, who was fortunate enough to get off Wednes
day with only a genteel call down by "I'uipiri- McGreevy for doing too per
pistent a convenational stunt from the bench, could not stand prosperity,
avid after being warned repeatedly to k^ep ins mouth shut, was put oft the
prounda by order or the umpire. Hap Insisted that he bad a right to talk,
quoting the constitutional provision regarding the liberty of speech, but Me-
Greevy could not interpret the law that way.
Delmaa also not hit In Hie second, when he kept up a crabbing disposition
!n front of McOreevy, who had called Bert out on a force at second. Hert
desired l<> converse In modem CUM words every time he could get his eye
off tli" ball, and MoOreevy insisted that his refined nature was severely
Bliocked; so he ordered Hert put in irons until after the game. Bernard
Wai moved In from right to take Del mas' place, while Ross went to right.
Bernard le i redited with three errors at short, nnd this may have had some
effect upon the tide <>f victory that ■ Witched from I,os Anpreles to Vernon
after Delmai <imt the ga
Waiter Carlisle, the fleet-footed guardian of center garden, was knocked
QUI f"r several seconds In the second Inning when he tried to butt down the
center Held fence in his mad rush after a fly ball that Tozer slammed up
Hgainst the fence. Walter forgot all about this Obstruction and bumped into
Ilie boards aa If lie, had to break down the fence in order to escape certain
destruction. Time was called and the water bucket brigade want to his res
€-ue. He was revived In a few seconds and stuck on the Job until the game
Was finished. He was not seriously hurt, .although It was feared for a time
that he lmd been severely injured.
Toser started in to twirl for the Angels and stuck for seven Innings, when
(Jill replaced him. Few know that Gill also is a pitcher, but he is, and he
Showed it by holding the Veronons down to one scratch safety In the two
innings lie tossed 'cm over. Tozer was off form, but his rotten support
brought about defeat rather thnn any Ineffectiveness on Ills part. It was an
off day for the Angela, In fact, as the error column shows, willctt pitched
the full game for Vermin, and hla assortment of teasers was too difficult to
be worked oul au cc tally by the Angel swatters.

yesterday at the new American theater

easily recognisable. The pictures settle
one dispute very plainly—that Flynn

were of the opinion he fell toward the

up about that bunch of his and believes
he will stay right on top of the heap
throughout the season.
T'mpire McGreevy is the sort of in
dicator man that the fans like to hnvp
around. When he males a decision
he impresses the players and fans with
the absolute fact that there is no ap
peal, and when he tells a player that
sllenep is golden, he means that a
second offense will cost something, and,
if aggravated, will mean expulsion.
There is an air of "strictly business"
nbout him that makes a hit with even
the players whom he disciplines. He
knows !iis business, too, if anybody
happens to nsk.
Jimmy Quinn, a Chicago feather

search of business, and Joe I.eby Is
authority for the statement that Quinn
is a live wire if he Is as good as he

Jim Harry arrived yesterday and will
begin training at once at Doyle's

liever in the ability of Harry to whip
Langford and says that the two weeks
lie has In which to train will permit
him to resi fen- a day or two before
getting down to hard knocks, as h" is
just fresh from his battle with Jack
Burns.
Friends of Harley M. Walker, more
familiarly known as Beanie, will re

Dispatches from Frisco tell of the

boxing and wrestling tournament of
Southern California were successfully
i laat evening. Bach event, no

the K"od natured d^votea <>f the game
present gave a gooa "hand" as each
contestant that entered the squared
circle, whether to DOS or to wrestle,
did his beat
Seated at one aide of the ring were
Charles Eyton, Capt. Ryus and Cliff
Reuman, who presided as judges of
events, while in the wrestling bouts
Clark Jargatorfl refereed, and In the
boxing events Sam Coulter. Although
most of the events terminated before
the scheduled rounds were over, those
that were decided by the trio of Judges
met the general approval of those
present.
Among those of the contestants that
showed the beat were Danny Rooney,
Dave IMcato and Coman among the
boxers, while Retzer showed his class
as a mat artist. Rooney hits from most
any position and has a ripping left.
Plcato shows the speed and cleverness
of his brother Prank, combined with ■
good kick, and will undoubtedly have
to bo reckoned with in settling the 125
--pound supremacy. Coman'a bout was
so short that very little was revealed
as to his cleverness, but one thing is i
known, the youngster has a kick like a
mule. Following la the summary of the
events:
