In the scrappiest, most exciting and bleacher enthusing contest of the
local season, the slugging Senators nosed out Vemon in the eleventh inning
at the Chutes yesterday, and put themselves on the long end of a seven to six
score. In many ways the game waa distinct in the annals of the Lop Angeles
diamond. Twenty-six players were in action during its long existence, thirty
hits were made by the combined forces; Carson, who pitched but two innins*,
is charged with defeat; the captain-manager of each team was ordered off the
field by the umpire; six different times the game appeared to be safely in the
grasp of one team or the other; and last, but not least, Eugene McGreevy
placed himself firmly with the inns by his prompt action whenever a player
was inclined to crab at one of his decisions.
It was a ball game to be remembered, for while it did not change any vital
standing in league percentages, the action was so evenly distributed, and so
rapid were the transfers of the long end of the score, that the fans were kept
in their seats until the very last man had been put out in the final round.
The Senators apparently bnttled things up for themselves in the second
Inning, when they put two men over the counting place. Vernon came right
bark and hit the bulUeye once, and from there until the eighth it was a see
saw affair, with neither side being able to advance men clear around the cir
cuit.
Batfm, who had taken Nourse's placo tn the third act, wheji the latter dis
played signs of weakening, was easy for the Villagers in the eighth, and
tiogan's sparkling humor again became audible to the stands. Three hits and
as many runs were, garnered by Vernon, and the fans looked on it as a gift
from the Senators.
However, Graham's visitors were not through fighting, for in their half of
what would usually have been the last inning the Capitollsts pounced on Hitt
and before the smoke had cleared away were once more in the lead with six
tallies to their credit.
Vernon, not to be outdone for gnmeness, came right nack in their half of
the'same frame and tied things up again, two nits netting two runs. The
next spasm went by with the Senators trying every foot of the way and get
ting a man as far as third v lth but one gone, but there was no scoring.
Then cairn- the blowoff. Carson, who, at first base scored Hensling, and
had relieved Hitt at the beginning of
thi tenth, lost all semblance of con
trol. Bhtnn, the first man up. went
..in on a foul, but liurns and Perry,
followed, were allowed first base
on four balls each. Hast] let a rather
loose pitch by hlni and the men moved
up a peg, and while Danzig wa
ing retired via the Burrell-Bra
route Burn? romped home with what
proved to be the winning run.
The second Inning saw Sacran
begin Its work. Boardman and I
both copping singles off llitt and ail
ing the third and s-econd cushions be
fore the third man came to bat.
Helster's roaring two-bugger put them
both on Easy street, but the other
btngle of the inning fell flat because
ol a nipped in the bud attempt at a
double steal, Helster being nailed at
the plate. »
Vernou went right back nt the.
visitors, when Coy followed Roy
Brashear's out with a double to cen
ter. Jiurrell tore off a singlo that was
long enough to allow Coy a chance
at the final station, but Lindsays
single did no good, as Burred, trying
to get clear in on some poor coaching
of Hogan's v>ag nailed good and hard
by Si lesman.
On the lirst ball pitched in the third
round Hltt nailed a single and Nourse
removed from the
tow Bones Baum a chance.

WOULD GIVE JEFF
$50,000 TO FIGHT
Philadelphia Promoter Wants the
Former Champion to Oppose
Kaufman Six Rounds
BIG FELLOW MAY ACCEPT
Manager McCarey's Move in the
Staging of Ten-Round, No-
Decision Bouts Favored
Billy JlcCarney, one of Philadelphia's
boxing promoters, is ready to Rive
former champion Jim Jeffries $50,000
to meet Al Kaufman in a six round,
no decision bout nt one of the Quaker
city ball parks Labor day. This news
was embodied In a telegram McCar
ney sent to a friend of his here yester
day, and a further bit of bait for Jeff
to nibble at was contained in a sen
tence stating: 40 per cent of the gross
receipts would go to the biff boy in
case he preferred to take a chance In
stead of the lump sum.
This news was flashed to Jeffries
! over the wireless to Catallna island,
where the ex-premier heavy is fishing:
with Tex Rlckard and Jack Kipper.
A reply one way or the other is ex
pected today, and by night McCarney
should be able to show—provided Jeff
accepts— he means real business
and is not out after some cheap ad
vertising-
In view of stories making the rounds
that Jeff is considering a return match
with Johnson, the Philadelphia offer
exactly fits in with conditions. If
there is nothing in the "mental col
lapse" and "dope" talk. Jeff should be
able to dispose of Kaufman inside the
six rounds which they are to battle,
and his re-engageuient with Johnson
I would prove a drawing card scarcely
I less Important than the Fourth of July
: mill at Reno. No doubts exist in the
I minds of those who saw that bout
1 as to the almost unbelievable way in
i which Jeff moved around, and if be
: made pood with Kaufman, who has I
been knocked out but once In his ca
reer, the big boy would again have the 1
backing of the majority at his former
I adherents. Should Kaufman make a
I creditable showing, then all hope of a
! r"turn battle between the smoke and
! Jeff would be out of the question, as
it would not draw enouch to pay train
ing expenses for the principals.
It look? like the ten round, no de
clslon fights held here for many mdons j
past will be the popular ticket up and j
1 down the state. Reports from Ban
Francisco indicate the northern pro
! moters will trail in behind Managev
' MeCarey or the local rhib, and the
short bouts, with no official verdict
at their termination, will have their
inning where twenty round events
formerly were offered as drawing
cards Seattle is also slated to blos
som forth as a fight town of the short
mill variety, and what has long been
looked on ns the Mecca for mitt ar
t Nts will descend to tha level of New
York. Philadelphia and other eastern
' ' \ report on the local situation, pub
lished in theso columns yesterday,
caused the fans to discuss the many
phases of boxing future, and on all
sides the suggestion that Manager
McCarey keep his bouts down to
child's size until after the ■ reform
wave haa gpenl itself was received as
the proper thirfg to do in the clrcum
! stances. Liberal patronage for ten
round bouts at Vernon is promised, ana
the sport can go on uninterrupted,
save there will be more science and
less slugging interspersed into the
action.
The wise promoter of his day is sure I
to pick out boya of skill rather than ;
endurance and wallop, and McCarey Is
no exception to this rule. As his ppen
er nt Vernon. he has tentatively
signed Pammy Kellar and Danny \Veb
ster little fellows who are on the
move all the time, but whose records
show comparatively few knockouts to
their credit. They are ,lust what the
doctor prescribed in the present In-
Btance. The strictest interpretation of
tho state law could not call a match
between them a prize fight, so no In
terference by the EJureka solon can be
contemplated.
But McCarey may not have, cicar |
' sailing in securing Kellar's services,
1 unless he already has the little fellow j
! bottled UP with a contract. Jim Grif- !
I fin, the San Francisco promoter, is
I after the Englishman for a bout with
i Jimmy Carroll July 1:9 at Dreamland,
and as McCarey expected to BtagQ his |
go early in August the, dates sort of i
conflict' But Mac is on the inside |
track, having Kelhir right here at i
Venice, so In all probability Qrifnn will I
be left in the cold, bo far as Sammy |
is ncerned. , , I
The Carroll-Kellar bout is planned
by Orlffln as a substitute for that be
tween Frankle Burns of Oakland and
1., iv Powell, who were to have boxed
for Griffin on the twenty-ninth. Powell
demanded too much weight concession,
and efforts to set some lightweight to I
take his place were unavailing.
Cyclone Johnny Thompson has come
forth as his own fair press agent.
That grand old fighter, champion of
the applewoman class, has issued a
four-page booklet from the Sycamore ;
farm which tells how great Cyclone
could be if he only had a chance.
Thompson is surely some booster for
H'l Johnny, but he's about the only
one who can s<so the cycloneless Cy
clone.
