42 Comiskey's Stars Due Tuesday for Annual Spring Practice WHITE SOX COMING ON TRAINING TRIP Famous Squad to Be Divided and Play Alternating Games Here and in South Charley Comiskey .and his > latest squad of _'"; Chicago' American league bait to«sers are '&s>* eding on "their way to s?&n Krancisco- as fast as a well equipped. special train can carry them. This, merry party will arrive here on • Tuesday evenfng'; and .as usual will make its headquarter!? at the Fairmont hotel. This is the third trip that the "Old. Roman", of. baseball has made to the .toast, for the spring, training of his -squad' and it "promises to be the greatest and most eventful that any major lengxte club has ever attempted* Arrived in this city. . the Sox will spend two days in Umbering:, up arid practicing before they trot out on the rte.ld to take part la. their first game against the Sari Francisco Seals. In the meantime Danny Long will, be showing plenty of speed in order to have his own bunch of tossers tit and ready ;o do battle with the Chicago.ag • • gregdtian. . • \u25a0•• • WILL DIV*DE His J.QUAD . . Upon their, arrival here :the Chicago boss will divide his squad into two sec* . lions. One will go to L.os Angeles and . play the Angels and semiprofessional \u25a0\u25a0•' - team's in the' southland, while the. other \u25a0 >vill remain here to entertain the Seals. After the first, week the teams will switch around. In the meantime each '. Will make several junketing trips, tak ing on the various college teams here and in. the .south and also such country iiin^s as can make the' necessary guar ' ;". ur.tevr. . . " ' . Comiskey has a great aggregation of talent under !iis wing this year. He always lias had. In f«iet,. but this time . his squad looks ev^n more formidable . than it did last year and the 'year-be fore. Many, of the veterans have been '. weeded , out and their places taken by : promising youngsters, who either sub stituted last season; or who made good frith fast minor league clubs. Among the most promising of the young tossers are the. two Coast lenjrue favorites. Ddille: Zeider of last year*.* San Francisco club- and Arnold O.andil. the- big Sa.craniento lirst base man, who hit the ball so hard. Each seems sure of holding his job with the Sr.x. though neither is certain yet just where he will play. They will be tried • >iit in several positions. »i kpev nmccr* playinw The playing of the Sox will be <li rected this year by Hugh Duffey.. the old time Boston star, and one of the most popular men that baseball has ever known. Comifk^y looked around for more than a year and finally he decided that Duffey was the very man to fill the shoes of Fielder Jones who 'probably will never return to the game again. Billy Sullivan. the great little catcher, and the man who managed .the Sox la.«t year.* will, as usual, do the heavy work behind the bat. Though ""not much of a hitter, Sullivan is one of th«* greatest. c.f» tchers who *ver drew on a padded mitt. He is a prime " favorite with the' fans of San Francisco as well as with those of Chicago,- and a royal welcome awaits him. Among- the other veterans in the • iineup are Fred Parent, the shortstop; Frank Isbell. the first and second base man, and Doc White, the southpaw pitcher. They will all be. on the Job. • All are well knov^n here,, having made, ; the trip with Comiskey for the last three years. White is sure of his job, though it looks as though Isbell and Parent will have to hustle. They will have, as rivals Zeider and Gandil and the m*n who show up best will wLn out. . In the outfield Comiskey will have our old friend, Pat Dougherty. Hahn and Messenger as regulars. All these . men played steadily last, year. Mes senger filling in during the middle of the reason and making good by : his clever base running and good stick work. He looks like a certainty now. SEVERAL YOUNGSTERS LIKELY . In addition the Old Roman has sev eral youngsters to be tried out In the garden. Among them is Beall, the big lx>i? Angeles slugger who had all the pitchers in the Coast league guessing last season. Cole, .another likely re cruit, will be given a chance to. show what he. can do. as will several others whom Comiskey's special will pick up on the way out to the coast. It will be remembered that the Seals have always given the Sox plenty of action in the tryout games, so the fans will be looking for them to make gopd again when they hook up on Friday afternoon for the first game of the sea son. • Long's bunch .is beginning to as semble and the Seal manager expects to have most of his tossers on the job In time- to line up against the Sox. Independents to Play at San Leandro • Ireland's Independents will play the most Important game of the spring sea son today at San Leandro against the strong team representing San Leandro. The teams will line up as follows: S«n I>»»c<lro— Unrphy. nwrond bast; Orr. third b»s*; Westfall. catelier: Merrltt. sbort •t<ip; C. F. Zsm!«.ik. fir»t b«ee; Cooper, center fl*>li!; B»be Uollts. pitcher; Peterson, pitcher; Chrtftrn.sen. career.

Moskimon demonstrated at Stanford on Thursday that he has rapidly round ed Into form. The game promises to be a. fast exhibition. .' -s, American Athletes Win Oxford Honors • — .

IN A; SERIES OF PRACTICE-GAMES HERE. ;1j TENNIS RESULTS VERY UNCERTAIN California Club Teams Matched in Doubles Play Varying Styles of Game GRANT SMITH Two tennis tournaments will be com pleted on the local courts today.' At the California club the handicap doubles tournament for the cups pre sented by Doctor Younger and Douglas Grant will be disposed of. The first and. third class players will finish their tournament commenced on the Golden Gate park courts last Sunday. The California club event is down to the semifinal round and the three remaining matches should all prove close and interesting. Two of the most heavily handicapped teams are still in the competition and each will meet a team playing from scratch. In one half Harry Weihe and Sherwood Adams (owe 15) will oppose Cutter and Xourse (scratch), while in the other half Rose and Flnnigan (owe 15) will meet Derby ! and Wescott (scratch). j Weihe and Adams will find them selves up against two of the steadiest players In the club and will have to play pretty close to their old time form to dispose of their opponents. Cutter and Nourse simply get the balls back in grood shap#> and depend upon their opponents' nets and outs to win. The old pony team is by no means as steady, but they play a much faster game. Adams is in good shape at pres ent, but Weihe is not as sure of his strokes as formerly. j In the other semifinal match the han- | f , dicap team is the brilliant but un- I j Fteady one. while Rose and Finnlgan 0 < play a. steady, careful game. Derby re 1 1 lies almost entirely on his forehand j ' c drive and rarely uses any other stroke. r Weecott's forte is his overhead, work. 5 He is a good smasher, but his back ' > court game is not up to that of hi? < 1 partner. Rose and Flnnigan play well ' in all parts of the court and can be re- j ? i lied upon to make* very f«»w errors. ; ] The semifinal matches will be played * - in the forenoon. While the final match I J \u25a0" is set for 2:30 in the afternoon. The J 1 - j semifinals will consist of two sets out ' ? of three and the finals three sets out of J [ five. The cups have to be won only ' > once and will go to the winner. of the £ 1 tournament "permanently. ' • In the first class event at the park l 1 George Janes looks a sure winner. He A • won his matches last. Sunday without j ! exerting himself and went In to the ' ' finals without the loss of a set. He r \u25a0 will meet the winner of the match be ; tween Batkin and Fltz Guerin In the -* finals.. The latter started their semi- * 1 final match last Sunday and it proved J j one ot»the closest played on the public I courts in some time. The score stood set .all and 7— 7 when darkness put a stop to play. The entire match will be played over this morning: and if both play as well as they did last. Sunday it will be well forth going to see. It was expected Batkin would prove a rather , handy winer over Guerin, but. the latter played unusually well and looks to have a good chance to beat his younger opponent. Neither one looks, to have much of a chance against Janes, who should win easily in the finals. In the third-class Flanders quali fied for the finals, where he will meet the winner of the semifinal match be tween Still and -Bass. The last men tioned player has twice won the. cup and is expected to score his third and final win today. If he does he will play in the second class in future. The defeat of McLoughlin and. Long, Che International team, at the hands of Sinsabaugh and Browne at Long Beach last week proved a- great surprise. Long and McLoughlin won the. .first set easily, but made a poor showing In the next two sets. The change 'from turf to asphalt no doubt affected the play of Ijong and McLoughlin; but at that they figured to win easily from the southern California cracks. Mc- Loughlin redeemed. himself by winning the singles. Miss May Sutton once more took Miss,, Hazel Hotchklss, the national champion, into camp, and with such ease that the little Berkeley player hardly looks to be classed with her. Miss Sutton's easy victory proves "that .she Is playing. a« well as ever, and she should regain the title of world's cham pion if she decides to" go after it this year. Carl Gardner, a former crack of this city, has been distinguishing himself in the national indoor championship tournament in the east. He reached the semifinal >round of the singles, where he was beaten by George Touch ard, a former Berkeley player, who, with Gardner, won a place In the finals of the doubles." Western <Glub to Put On Boxing Bouts The Western club will hold its. first boxing tournament In its clubrooms, Jefferson square building, , this even ing. Boxing 'lnstructor George^^ Green has several- likely amateurs of- various weights under his wing,, and he \u25a0 will turn them loose this evening, for their first public appearance. The exhibition is for. members and' their i friends, only, and admission will, be by card' and In vitation. \u25a0 \u25a0 f \u25a0•'.•••: GOTCH THROWS TWO CHICAGO, Feb. 26.— Chanipioh;Frank Gotch took .a little workout last v night preparatory .to his meeting.

CONFLICTING DATES CAUSE CONFUSION University of California's Action Results in Changing of the Meet Schedule HERBERT HAUSER The announcement that the students of the University of California are con templating: holding an lnterscholastic Held day on April 30 In place of the big: C annual relay carnival is causing; considerable discussion araonfc the stu dents of the various high schools, as well as the college, men. The Stanford interscholastic associa tion, which has been holding •'prep* school athletic meets for several years past at Stanford, had originally in tended to hold its annual meet of this year on the first Saturday -in May or the-last week In April, and all the schools .in the state' were, under the impression that such would be the case, but the story leaked out that California would hold a meet on April 30, so the Palo Alto boys have gone.their Berke ley friends one better and set their meet for April 2?,. The Bay counties league had set April 23 as the date; of its' meet, but this will probably be held either on April 2 or 9 in deference to Stanford. • . *.\u25a0.\u25a0'•-. The basket ball tournament' for the Pacific athletic association champion ship will begin "Tuesday night at the 1 Pastime athletic club with 38 teams entered. While in numbers the event does not equal last year's champion ships, the. teams that entered have more class. The 110 pound class; champions of last year's Oakland high school will participate in the clasß above, their strongest opponents probably being the .Columbia park ' boys' club. In ..the 110 pound Class the St. Mary's college Vic tors are conceded the favorites. The University, of California has a strong 130 pound 'five, as -has also Petaluma and the Swastikas of this city. The 145 pouryl class will- bring out the Ponies, the University, of California and the Pioneers of the Columbia park club. The unlimlteddass should be a great fight between "the Stockton All Stars and last year's; champions, the Uni versity of California. ; The game sched uled for the Columbia, park learn 1 on the first- has' been, postponed to March S and the Swastika-Wlenlawskl game substituted. - ' '.','\u25a0•\u25a0'* ' \u2666 , *VV 'The members' of \\he> .Ba>barian : club are busily preparing for, their "stag" evening on next Thursday.

The Lowell team, has been practicing oft and on for the last two weeks) but no organized effort has been made to I get the. whole team out. Mission high ', will al3o start practice under the coach- ! ing of last year's coach, Ren wick. It is possible that Renwick will coach the Commercial high next season as well I as Mission. ' ;; Other schools are mentioned as hav- j ing announced their intention of trying out the Rugby game, and competing in the Academic league championship next September and October. Among these newcomers to the Rugby fold, Lick, Cogswell and probably Wilmerding are all said to have leanings toward the Rugby code. The Berkeley- high and possibly the Oakland high will also be in ; the competition. ; Considerable interest -Is being mani fested in the newstyje of football that the Columbia park boys are going' to introduce from/Australia. The; Victo rian game, as it is. known, is an ex tremely: fast and open game, and the Columbia boys have proved themselves adepts at it.. After the boys arrive on March . 1 .it is very likely that an- ex hibition game. will be arranged between two. selected teams, from the boys that made the. tour of Australia.

LAST SOCCER GAME OF SERIES TODAY Thistles Touted to Win From San Franciscos in Final '"'•\u25a0>' \u25a0.- \u25a0 League Contest . \u25a0 BOB SHAND The final game in the series of. the California , football league will »c; played' at Freeman's park, Oakland, this afternoon, when the Thistles and San Franciscos will hook up. The Thistles are looked upon as sure win ners. If the Thistles win they will be awarded the league championship, while if they lose they will be out ©f the running. The trouble between the association and some of the league clubs has been adjusted. There never was anything seriously the matter and after a heart to heart talk the entire business was satisfactorily disposed of. Some of the teams threatened to withdraw from the association and arrange a series of games to take the place of the reg ular cup. competition. This would have me%nt the disruption of the as sociation, and when the matter was considered in calmer moments all thought of breaking away from the parent body was forgotten. Of course there is . considerable agitation across the bay over the action o* the associa tion in scheduling all the cup games for this side, but it has been suggest ed that the two semifinals be played in Oakland or Fruity-ale, and this will prove satisfactory to the Alumeda county membership^.
