ANAHEIM ELKS WIN FROM BATTLESHIP Pete Hax and his Anaheim Elks won a hard fought battle from the Gobos of the Battleship New York on the local high school field yesterday, the game was close at all times the home club putting across the deciding run with two men out in the 9th inning. Both Hughes of the Bills and Wyatt of the Sailors pitched good ball in the pinches, the former striking out nine and walking two while Wyatt walked eight and set 13 down on strikes. The locals scored two in the second on Captain Callan's walk and Hawkens' long triple to left-with-a long fly by Coffman; two in the third on a walk to Pendleton and Ramage's home run in right center, one of the longest hits ever seen on the high school field; they tallied one more in the sixth on a walk to Hawkins, Coffman's single and Ricker's error. The visitors scored one in the third on Crawford's single, Wyatt's sacrifice and an error by Hawkins; again in the fifth on Buster Callan's error and a fielder's choice; they tied it up in the sixth when Curran doubled. McClendon got his second hit, a base on balls to Miller, Wyatt's sacrifice and Ricker's single. It remained that way until the last of the 9th when Pendleton flew to left. G. Callan singled, Ramage was purposely walked, Buster Callan got his third free pass, Hawkins then left a long fly to center field and the ball game was over. Johnny Pendleton played a wonderful game at short and Doty Bush handled several difficult chances at third. Manager Hax expects to receive a copy of the Elks schedule, this week. The season is about ready to open and the Anaheim Bills are out to make it three time in a row, something no other club has been able to do. BOX SCORE U. S. S. New York— AB. R. H. PO. A. E.

LONG BEACH OPENS WRESTLING ARENA (By International News Service) LONG BEACH, June 4—Leading wrestlers of the nation will be seen in action at the new Long Beach Athletic arena at Gaviota avenue and East Anaheim street under the direction of Lou Daro, former heavy-weight wrestler, who is promoting the local matches. "Strangler" Lewis, world's heavyweight champion; Earl Caddock, the two Zybyszkos, Londos, Gardini, Sanet and other well-known matsmen will do their stuff in the local arena within the next few months if plans announced by Daro go through to completion. Daro is western representative for Lewis, and is in close touch with the leading grapplers of the country. In the opening show at the new arena on Friday night, June 8, Sam Sandow, Long Beach middleweight who aspires to the title now held by Johanny Meyers, will oppose Douglas Park, mid-western chimpion. Two preliminary matches will open the show. Seats for a total of approximately sixty-five people will fill the arena.

MERELY The corner stone of the new school house will be laid next Monday Aug. 19, with ceremonies commensurate with the importance of the occasion. Our neighbors in the county should not fail to visit Anaheim on that day. Mr. Reiser has shown us a letter from Mr. Denker stating that the Masons of Los Angeles are coming in a body and have secured an excursion train. Come on MacDuff. The more there is of ye the better we shall be pleased. In the same issue of the Gazette we find that the city tax rate was 50c on $100 and that it was intended to raise a total of $1700. The paper also tells of the discovery of coal near Anaheim, and that ore from the Silver Slope silver mine is expected to assay $20,000 to the ton. Mr. Molrose does not guarantee this information as it is carried in a correspondence letter signed by John Smith. Samples of the ore and the gold are found in the box. The school building cost $9,500 and a sample $500 bond is included among the reliefs. It calls for interest at the rate of 10 percent. Several coins that were in common use at the time of building are included, some of which are no longer in circulation. Among these are a large, old fashioned penny, two two-cent pieces and a twenty cent piece. A five cent "shinplaster" is the clown of the collection. If the authorities had thought to include an up-to-date American flag it would have shown 58 white stars on the background of blue. It is the purpose of the present board to put both these collections of reliefs together with some interesting present day facts under the corner stone of the building now under construction. These two collections of reliefs will be placed on exhibition about the middle of the present work in the window of the Golden State bank. GIBBONS O TRAIN AT SHELBY, MONT. (By International News Service) SHELBY, Mont, June 4.—A flock of carpenters shifted hurriedly from arena building today in order to build training quarters of Tommy Gibbons, challenger, who will meet Jack Dempsey for the world's championship here on July 4. The St. Paul knuckle bouncer has decided to train here instead of at Havre, 150 miles to the east. Gibbons probably will be here on Wednesday, accompanied by his family. Immediately after his arrival he will don his war paint and proceed to the business of fitting himself for the most important flight of his career. The townspeople are paying for the arena where Gibbons will train.

THE PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIF. THINKS DUNDEE CAN LICK CRIQUI I. N. S. Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June 4.—Looking none the worse for his punch knock-out Johnny Kilbane today accepted the passing of his featherweight title with philosophical calm and even went so far as to pick the man who will be his successor. Eugene Criqui, the new champion, and Johnny Dundee are to meet in a championship bout either July 28 or August 4 at the polo grounds, it is said on good authority. Dundee, win, according to Kilbane. He bases his opinion on the belief that the Frenchman is inclined to uncover his jaw in order to make use of his now famous right hand. "He can hit," Kilbane declared tersely, "and any boxer who can be hit can be beaten." At that, the former champion could hardly do other than concede that Criqui mustered a surprisingly strong defense. This was accomplished, Kilbane said, by humping his left shoulder well over his jaw and keeping it there, except at more or less rare intervals. It is these intervals that will afford any smart boxer the opportunity he needs in the opinion of Kilbane. That he himself did not take advantage of these temporary exposures can be laid to the matter of bad hands. Kilbane explained. "I hit him three times," "but after the first punch there was nothing behind by wallops. The hand had gone bad. My left went out of commission in the first round. These are facts, not alibis. I want everybody to know that I think Criqui is a great little fighter and deserved to win." Criqui put in a quiet day at his cottage at Manhasset, L. L., denying reports that he intended to sail for France almost immediately. Through an interpreter he made it clear that he intends to go through with his agreement to box Dundee in defense of the title within sixty days. The fight itself will go down in the records as a knockout of Kilbane.
