ANNOUNCE LINEUP FOR ELKS' FIRST PRACTICE BATTLE Manager Pet Hax announced he would take the following talent with him Sunday to Irvine for the first practice game of the Elks baseball season: Catcher, Captain Buster Callan; pitchers, Hughes and Salveson; infielders, Ramage, Doty Bush, Pendleton, Ray Bush; outfielders, Archie Hawkins, Phil Schrott, Coffman, Vic Ruedy, Brown. Manager Hax is not certain that Doty Bush can get off from the Angel training camp Sunday. Glenn Callan, veteran of many an Elk league battle will not be on the field Sunday. It now seems his business affairs that day will prevent his participation this year. However, he may be able to get in harness when the regular schedule opens. The Irvine team, champions of the Orange county Harbor league, would like nothing better than to claim the Orange county championship by defeating the Anaheim Elks. Irvine has some fast talent, including the Mitchell boys, Perry Calalhan and a demon pitcher. "Curly" McClaim, veteran Vernon backstop, will be in a uniform Sunday for the first time in more than a year. He will attempt a "comeback" in the outfield if he can get into shape again. COUNTY GUN CLUB TO SHOOT SUNDAY The Orange County Gun Club will hold a regular shoot at the club grounds on Brookhurst avenue Sunday at 9 a.m. Secretary Ben Christileb has been informed that a number of the members of the Vernon Gun Club will be present. Much interest is taken by the Vernon shooters; in the club here, because of the excellent sky line. There will be several prize events Sargum Sproutings By Sargum Sprout The purchase of the Seattle franchise by two of Wm. Wriggley's employees, will not patch up the difference of the two factions that have been having such a merry little war of late. It will swing the balance of power over to the opposition of Pres. McCarty. McCarty has held the balance of power in his own hands by exercising his voting power when there was a dead lock and there has been four teams in each faction. The new Seattle management will slide with the "little four" and therefore Pres. McCarty will not face a deadlock and he will be shorn of his power. Another phase of the question that will not help to quiet the troubled waters—that Wrigley capital is not involved in the deal. A few years back a terrible howl was created when Henry Berry sold the Los Angeles team and while hording a mortgage on that property acquired the San Francisco team by purchase. It was claimed that Berry was interested and had a controlling voice in the two teams. A rule or by-law of the league was dug up where by one man could not have a voice in the management of two teams. Now if Wrigley capital is behind the Seattle Club there will be another bowl. It would appear that Mr. Wrigley in winning his victory by cold business methods which should not hurt the game from an attendance standpoint, but will open the breach between the two factions considerably. Santel did not have a great deal of trouble in disposing of Herman Stroh the other evening. Ad got the first fall in an hour and twelve minutes and the second in twenty-seven minutes. Ad just tired Herman down and then beat him. The wrestler beat the boxer in the first round of their scheduled four round go. Now Johany Meyers is after Harry Greb for a mixed match. The much talked of mixed match between Jack Dempsey and Strangler Lewis is losing its momentum reason of one or the other of the principals not being over-ank.

Schmacher Co., for "Everything in real estate." Hold Her Down Over 200 feet into the Meyer sand, White Star No. 2, is showing the kind of a roaring, howling well she's bound to be. Oil? More of it with every foot! Gas? Just watch her foam clear over the ditch with gas-rilled mud. No. 2 is billed to go another 200 feet into the grease—and then we set the perforated pipe and let her blow in. Wells with 300 feet of Meyer sand come in with production reported at 8500 to 9000 barrels. What will White Star No. 2 be with 400 feet of the same stuff? No. 3 is contented on the Bell Sand, waiting just a few days more before drilling through and going on down to "Mr. Meyer." No. 1 is taking her last, final cote to determine the exact foot where we land and cement the 6½-inch down to "Mr. Meyer." Look for No. 3 on production in 35 days.

CHANEY LOSES IN LAST TO BABY GANS Fighting like a demon in the last minute at the Urbita Athletic Club's boxing she wat San Bernardino last night, Baby Gans of Los Angeles overcome Joe Chaney's lead for two rounds and won the decision. Chaney for the first time was slammed and banged around the ring and only his gameness and cleverness enabled him to weather the avalanche. If was an exciting climax that had had the fans on edge all the way, Gans was lucky to win and many Gate City fans believe Joe is yet the better man. The dope was again out of form when Paul Wilkins was given the nod over Toby Montoya, fast Fullerton ton ligh- pounder in another exeiting affair. Paul was fast slowing up to the last round with Toby rapidly coming to the front. Only for a couple of fluke knockdowns, Montoya would undoubtedly have received a draw. Tex Jones lost to Benny Jordan of Redlands when he blew up in the last round and Jordan, scenting victory, pelted the Arkansas wildcat all over the ring. Battling Doty of Wintersburg and Young Sheller of Colton once more went a draw in a contest that was a fight all the way. Danny Hererra, of El Monte, scored his third second round consecutive K. O. when he put Al Moody to sleep with a hard right to the button. Joe Haskins of Fullerton also went out via the K. O. route when Pete Brown of Anaheim slipped over the old sleep pellet in the second round. A good turnout enjoyed a good show, Billy Darnley of the local club refereed with satisfaction.

Doty asked Krug yesterday if he was to be kept with the Angels; otherwise requesting his release. "What team wants you?" asked Krug. "None," said Dety, "I merely want my release." "We'll let you know about that Friday!" said Krug. Billy Kuitt, Anaheim's cratwhite baseball magante, was willing to wager $10 that Krug would be reluctant to let go of Bush, after having his attention called forcibly to his shiftiness at second.

NOTED MINISTER IN TEMPLE SERVICES Rev. Dr. Rufus J. Wyekoff, who will conduct the evangelistic services at the White Temple next week, is not a professional evangelist but an active pastor, until recently in Baltimore and before that in Chicago. Dr. Wyekoff is a graduate of Ohio Wesleyan University and of the Boston School of Theology. Besides his bachelor degrees, he holds the doctor of divinity and the doctor of letters and yet he is a man of the people and preaches in the simplest possible manner. Those who heard him a few weeks ago know also that he has a gripping power in his preaching and easily reaches the hearts of his hearers. He conducted a series of meetings for the Methodist church in Redlands recently and this week returned to Redlands to speak at the union meetings. He comes fresh from that campaign to Anaheim. Dr. Gelissinger and Dr. Wyekoff have been friends since their earliest ministry and have ridden all over Southern Ohio on bicycles together. They have also taken long tramps and have been most intimate friends. Dr. Wyekoff comes to these meetings to help out an old friend. At the time the arrangements were made it was felt by the official board that Dr. Gelissinger would not be able to conduct these meetings, the first time that has been true in 28 years of ministry. Fortunately, Dr. Gelissinger has fully recovered his health and will help in the services. Anaheim is fortunate in being privileged to hear a preacher of Dr. Wyekoff's pulpit ability and it is certain that he will be given a good hearing. SEES 'SPUDDING IN' ON COVELL LEASE W. H.
