No records were broken in the three-man bowling league last night in the Anaheim alleys, the only redeeming features of the night's play were the defeat of the Blue at the hands of the Browns, it being the latter's first series to win, taking three out of five games.
In the other match the Reds won the odd game from the Whites shooting over 600 in their third game. Morago was high man of the night rolling 238 and 949 total.

SLUGGING FEATURE OF Y. M. C. A. GAMES
"Everybody hits" was the slogan last night for all four teams at the "Y" field at Anaheim. In the first game the American Legion put across 23 runs while the Uplon Oil made 20. In the second game the Salem Evangelical team made 12 runs in the first innning but the heavy hitters of the Kiwanis kept slugging away and finally nosed cut the Evangelical team 29 to 25.
A large crowd had plenty of chance to root as there was plenty of hitting and a lack of high class fielding. This evening a practice game is to be played between the White Temple team and the Kiwanis team. Those two teams are leading their respective leagues and a real snappy game is looked for.

ST. CATHERINE WINS FROM TROOP THREE
In one of the most exciting games of the season at A. U. H. S. field, St. Cathereine's team defeated a team from Troop Three to the tune of 18 to 12. Troop Three had a good team but St. Cathereine's was better. Johnny Escovedo starred in the box. Tom McElheney was the pitcher for the losing side. Roland E. Dye, Orange-co scout executive, rooted for both sides.
George Russek tripled in the eighth, sending in two runs.
Adolfa Escoveco, Troop three short stop, wrenched his arm at a scout meeting and was unable to lend his support.
The troops wish to thank the public for their loyal support and say good-bye as this is the last battle of it.
It isn't necessary to hitch your wagon to a star to get some place in this world.
Thomas Battling Gibbons, who has started training for his great chance at the world's heavyweight title, will tell the cockneyed universe and contiguous territories that.
For Gibbons had no thought of or ambition to ascend to the topmost pinnacle of boxing fame himself when he first donned the gloves. His only hope was to make his own brother a champ. And he it said to Tom's credit that he gave several years that he might have used to forward his own ends in the ring to helping Brother Mike attain the heights he reached.
It was back in 1913 that Tom first entered the ring himself. And then he took up fighting, one might say, as a side line to training his brother. But the success with which he met in his first battles convinced him he himself had a future. He found that a couple of years of sparring with his speedy, clever brother had instilled in him much of the science of the game and considerable ability to hit.
So he hopped to it.
It was in 1914 that Gibbons first drew rest attention. He licked Geo. K. O. Brown, outpointed Billy Miske and knocked out Buck Crouse. The fact that Crouse was nearing the end of his days somewhat lessened the glory of that k. o. though.
Then the next year Gibbons licked Billy Murray, Billy Miske and Harry Greb, among others. Gus Christie was his most formidable opponent the next year and then, in the next few years, up to 1921 he took on all the good middleweights.
In the summer of 1920 he took on weight, joined the heavyweight ranks and left a string of second-rate heavies prone on the canvas in a series of battles that extended from Dan to Dawson.
And as he waded through the big boys he found that the years spent in the gym helping Brother Mike had given him something that ninety-nine per cent of the big boys lack—boxing science.
Gibbons may not stack up with Dempsey as a puncher. He may lack the rugged disposition to go through a long guelling fight with a maneater like the champ but he has the one asset which finally will spell defeat for the Manassa Mauler—boxing skill.
The average heavyweight is so slow on his feet that a bone-crust Dempsey has caught Gibbons has taken from Dempsey and this speed him a chance to have in the way the champ's bored.
And if Gibbons ring world, Brother that Tom has no modest ambition the game—of putting up near the top.

N'T HITCH HIS WAGON STAR, BUT HE GOT THERE
SAY DEMPSEY OUT OF FIGTHING TRIM
(Copyright 1923 by International News Service)
GREAT FALLS, Mont., June 12.—If you are from the east, and start to tell the natives what chumps they are to think they can get away with a big financial success when Jack Dempsey may or may not defend his title against Tom Gibbons July 4, you are going to get some hot words. You are going to get some hot words.
It isn't a Great Falls enterprise, but Great Falls is standing by Shelby 100 miles to the northeast.
You may mention the sparseness of the country and the fact that you travel in a railway coach for hour without seeing a human being who ever had the idea of spending $50 to see two de luxe boxers whale away at each other.
Go ahead making disparaging remarks about the country and see what will happen to you.
They've raised plenty of money to support the battle. They've raised it simply a patriotic duty.
As far as I've been able to learn, nobody has as yet tried to sell any strangers any old stock or anything of the sort, despite the fact that Dempsey, already in good appearance—note the difference in "appearance" and "condition"—is just getting down to the hard licks of the thing.
Some cynics say he has permitted himself to get dangerously far out of actual fighting trim. It is hard for a boxing man, no matter if he be even the wonder that Dempsey is accounted, to remain in idleness for exactly two years and then expect to lick a sprightly young fellow like Gibbons.
It's a dangerous risk, that's all. More than one comment is heard on this time and again.

Three weeks more till the Fourth. Shelby, Montana, will grow and grow till that eventful day, after which Shelby will settle down to just Shelby again. But, say, wouldn't it be a dandy trip to take by auto I mean.
Just gather up the Duch oven, frying pan and coffee pot and purchase some flap Jack Clur, a slab of bacon and a few other article of food and roll up the old camp bed and be on your way.
You would go across California, the lower part of Nevada and across Utah to Salt Lake City, which would take you over some 700 miles of mountains, desert and plain. From Salt Lake City you would head north through Idaho and might dip into Wyoming just enough to catch the Yellowstone National Park, then north again thru Montana to Shelby. July 5th, bright and early you could head west through the north handle of Idaho and on through Washington to the coast or you could go north and west from Shelby into Alberta. L.D. British Columbia to the coast and then down.
From Salt Lake to Shelby would be about 600 miles from Shelby to the coast 700 and down the coast 750 miles, making in all about 2750 miles. This trip would cover most of the great west and would be wonderful education as well as pleasure.
The Dempsey-Gibbons scrap furnishes a good excuse to go, but it would be only a very small item compared with the other advantages of the trip. If you can afford it and have the time, better not overlook this chance.
All that keeps Sargum Sprout from hitting the trail in the morning is slow on his feet and with his hands that a bone-crusher with the speed Dempsey has can get to him easily. Gibbons has the speed to keep away from Dempsey for a time at least. And this speed thereby may give him a chance to send home what he has in the way of punches between the champ's boring-in sessions.
And if Gibbons does surprise the ring world, Brother Mike will feel that Tom has not suffered for the modest ambition he held early in the game—of putting Brother Mike up near the top.
SHELBY PROMOTER INJURED IN PLANE
GREAT FALLS, June 12—Bobby Johnson, son of Mayor Jim Johnson of Shelby; Loy Molumby, promoter of the Dempsey-Gibbons July 4 championship bout; former State Senator Lane, and Earl Vance, a pilot, were injured at Livingstone today when their airplane failing to take off, crashed into a grove of trees.
The plane was wrecked.
Johnson's arm was broken, two of Lane's ribs fractured, and Molumby and Vance suffered severe bruises.
looked great. Roy Mabee, who claims to be an ex-wrestler, watched the Roller-Miller workout, and it was all Old Roy could do to keep from mingling in the fray himself.
Roy is just itching to take on Sammy Sandow, but hates to come out of retirement.
Back to the Miller-Perganton match—it will be replete with action and will be well worth the while to attend.
