NEW COACH ISSUES FIRST GRID CALL
A. E. Fitzmaurice new A. U. H. S. coach recently of Grossmont has rent a call to local athletes who are interested in playing football the coming term. Mr. Fitzmaurice is handicapped by not knowing the material for the team and wishes to meet football players at the gym room. Monday Aug. 27, at two e'clock. Capt. "Al" Hile star of last year, and Coach Fitzmaurice will look over the lads and read them the rules and regulations.
Anaheim boys should realize that they have a responsibility thrust upon their shoulders this coming term because it is up to them to win the championship in football, now that Fullerton and Santa Ana are out of the league. This places the Mother Colony lads in top position. The schools that rank in ability with Anaheim are Orange, Huntington Beach and possibly Whittier, also admitted to the Orange league.
The boys who are interested in this meeting are asked to pass the word along so Coach Fitzmaurice will be encouraged from the start. Anaheim is indeed fortunate to have Mr. Fitzmaurice as instructor and the boys have a “prince of a chap” for a guide.
JENSEN WINS CUP IN SWIMMING MEET
Reports of young Robert C. Jensen's showing in the swimming contest in Los Angeles last night said nothing about his time. He swam the 75 yards in 49.4 seconds, says has father, Robert V.

MILLER AFTER ALL SHOOTING HONORS
SOUTH SHORE COUNTRY CLUB, CHICAGO, Aug. 23—Phil Miller, Dallas, Texas sharpshooter, who this morning became the holder of both the singles and doubles championships of the grand American trap-shooting tournament here, started to make a clean sweep of championship honors this afternoon, by making the first perfect score of the day in the class championship.
Shooting conditions were nearly perfect and other records in the class championship event for the day were expected to be hung up.
CARMEN GIVEN EDGE
PORTLAND, Ore., Aug. 23—Dode Bercot of Seattle boxed a ten round draw with Young Carmen here last night. Carmen was conceded the edge, out-hitting Bercott, altho his blows were light and undamaging.
Dale Freeman and Joe Blank, both of whom recently turned professional, boxed a slashing four round draw and Richie Davis and Joe Dunn went another draw in six rounds. George Burns beat Sammy Green and J. Murray stopped J. White in the curtain-raiser.
SARGUM PROUTINGS
Luis Angel Firpo has at last got down to real training for the Dempsey fight, that is, he has established a training camp. The time is too short for him to learn much of boxing and the Firpo that will oppose Jack Dempsey September 14th will not be greatly changed from the Firpo that downed Jess Willard.
Horatio Lavelle, Firpo's new trainer, is on the job. Firpo has not learned much of the English language and De Forest knew nothing of the Spanish so Laville will have...
JENSEN WINS CUP
IN SWIMMING MEET
Reports of young Robert C. Jensen's showing in the swimming contest in Los Angeles last night said nothing about his time. He swam the 75 yards in 49.4 seconds, says has father, Robert V. Jensen, local battery expert. The contest was under the auspices of the Ambassador Club and the Los Angeles Athletic club.
Jensen was second to George Leath of the latter club by only two seconds. He won a beautiful silver medal. Last year Jensen beat everybody in his class in the annual Pullerton swim.
Tagging All the Bases
A five run rally in the sixth gave the Tigers a 6 to 3 decision over the Yankees, Johnson and Bush having previously engaged in a strong arm duel.
Ken Williams smote his twenty-third home run of the season and the Browns beat the Red Sox twice 8 to 7 and 6 to 1.
Genewich not only confined the Cards to a single tally but drove all of the Braves' runs with a single and a double. Score 3 to 1.
After Thurston had fanned six men in the last three innings, three of them on nine pitched balls in the twelfth, Miller's single, his steal of second, and Welsh's safety gave the Athletics a 3 to 2 victory over the White Sox in the thirteenth.
MORGAN WINS TITLE
SEATTLE, Aug. 23—A new Pacific coast featherweight champion was crowned last night when Bud Ridley lost his title to Tod Morgan of Seattle by a decision after six gruelling rounds.
LAST NITES FITES
New York—Pancho Villa, Manila, knocked out Jackie Feldman, New York, third round, Archie Walker, New York, was disqualified in the seventh round of his bout with Kid Brown, Philadelphia, for holding; Mike Ballerino, got the decision over Joe Nelson, ten rounds.
At Cincinnati—Willie Sullivan, Cincinnati, and Frank Mason of Ft. Wayne, drew ten rounds.
Ot Oakland—Young Fisher, "Syracuse Caveman" was completely outclassed in four rounds by Jimmy O'Hagen. Frank Farmer won a decision over Al Hoag, four rounds. Eddie Mahoney and Gene Cline drew in four.
Luis Angel Firpo has at last got down to real training for the Dempsey fight, that is, he has established a training camp. The time is too short for him to learn much of boxing and the Firpo that will oppose Jack Dempsey September 14th will not be greatly changed from the Firpo that downed Jess Willard.
Horatio Lavelle, Firpo's new trainer, is on the job. Firpo has not learned much of the English language and De Forest knew nothing of the Spanish so Laville will have one great advantage over De Forest. He can instruct Firpo without the aid of an interpreter. Maybe Lavelle as friend and advisor can be of more beenfit to Firpo than the expert De Forest.
Firpo is a peculiar bird who likes to use his own wings to fly with. From all accounts he does not take advice well. He knows how he wants to fight and that is the way he has always fought. He has been able to make his methods work out so far and he may know Firpo's ability better than anyone else.
Most of the fans seem to think Dempsey fast enough to slug Firpo and at the same time keep covered up and out of the way. A man has to be set to deliver a knockout blow and the ever boring in of Firpo is bound to catch Dempsey unless he is stopped early. Dempsey may win in the first few rounds but the longer the fight goes the more chance Firpo has. The great Jack has no chin.
Tex Rickard is trying to sign Harry Willis to box Firpo next spring and Willis wants the bout if Firpo knocks off Dempsey but otherwise nothing doing. In other words, Willis wants just one crack at a championship bout and the big money connected with it. We do not blame Willis, for a bout with either Firpo or Dempsey would probably be Mr. Willis' last fight.
Jim Coffroth is still angling for the Dempsey-Wills scrap to be staged at his race course in Tia Juana. Mr. Coffroth is going east next week to try and tie up the match.
Johnny Meyers, middle weight wrestling champion, succeeded in defending his title against Joe Carr of Minneapolis in Chicago.
Johnny promised to return to Los Angeles and settle with Sam Sandow, and also to tie Roy Mabee into knots but Johnny some time fails to keep a promise.
The Little Mohave river that afforded such good trout fishing earlier in the season has about dried up and has been fished out. Good catches are still being made in the upper Santa Ana river.
Fishing has been very good at all beaches for the last two or three weeks.

TIA JUANA WOULD DRAW BIG CROWD
By DAVIS J. WALSH
(I. N. S. Sports Editor)
NEW YORK, Aug. 23.—Granting that his alleged plans originated in nothing more than a laudable desire to gain publicity for a race track that frankly makes capital of a great national thrist, the proposal of Jim Coffroth to match Jack Dempsey and Harry Wills at Tia Juana during the winter season is not without downright practicability.
A Dempsey-Willis bout, all hookup aside, would draw like an open cut if it were held on the Isle of Yap. At Ti Juana the enterprise might easily become a gold mine.
The fallacy of the age is the popular impression, entertained locally, that all big fights must be held within a trolley car ride of Times Square. The belief is entirely without fact or foundation.
Within a few hours, ride of Ti Juana is the city of Los Angeles, numboring about 800,000 souls. Then, too, there is San Francisco, Oakland, Sacramento, Portland and other centers of activity to draw from. The coast is hungry for the flying fist and would travel on hands and knees to a championship fight.
What could be sweeter than to run down to Ti Juana, where one can see the fight, the poker chips, the liquor and the horse races at one and the same time.
California and environs, once the last word in affairs of the fist, haven’t seen a title bout these many years. It would have sent more than a fair representation up to Shelby if the latter could have persuaded the doubting public that all was well at least 72 hours before the Dempsey-Gibbens bout. As it was, California had to be content with blocking allBASEBALL TODAY

PROMPT PROBE OF TAMPERING CHARGE
NEW YORK, Aug. 23.—Charges of attempted tampering with players of the Cincinnati team by professional gamblers during the recent series with the New York Giants in Cincinnati today resulted in a prompt investigation of the matter by J. A. Heydler, president of the National League.
The charges were made by Colyers "Eye", a Chicago sporting publication and mentioned Pat Duncan, left fielder and Sammy Bohne, second baseman of the Reds.
The two players were called into conference by Heydler. At the conclusion of the hearing he stated that his investigation showed there was no basis for the accusations.
COURTHOUSE NEWS
In People vs J. B. Demarest filed today the latter is charged with failing to give the number of his car and the names of himself and other occupants following a collision on the Garden Grove road near Fullerton on June 23, Clarence Davenport who swore to the complaint, says Demarest had an assumed authority over the car. The crime, if it was committed, is a felony.
Clyde S. Williams is appointed a deputy captain by Constable E. D. Marion, according to papers filed today with the County Clerk.
An order to enter a default in the case of George T. Schlicht vs Anna J. Schlicht was issued today by the Superior Court.
The estate of the late Alice W. Craddick amounted to $20,661.17, according to the inventory and appraisement filed today. Realty, largely in the city of Orange, compose the bulk of the property.
GET BODY FROM SEA
Coroner Charles D. Brown went to Long Beach today to identify the alleged body of J. J. Hague of Los Alamitos, drowned while bathing near Anaheim Landing.
Hague had lived in Los Alamitos only a short time, coming south from Oregon. He spent most of his time in Long Beach. He was caught in
What could be sweeter than to run down to Tia Juana, where one can see the fight, the poker chips, the liquor and the horse races at one and the same time.
California and environs, once the last word in affairs of the fist, haven't seen a title bout these many years. It would have sent more than a fair representation up to Shelby if the latter could have persuaded the doubting public that all was well at least 72 hours before the Dempsey-Gibbens bout. As it was, California had to be content with blocking all traffic in front of newspaper bulletin boards in its haste of get returns.
The heavyweight championship bout promoted by a native son just across the line, would be in no danger whatever of backfiring financially. Sectional pride is too keen in California to permit such a calamity. In addition, they have implicit confidence in Coffroth, the Tex Riekard of his day. If he said the fight was on, it would be on like a rivet to far as they were concerned.
LANGFORD STOPPED FROM BOXING BOUT
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 23.—Claiming that Sam Langford was a professional boxer, the police last night stopped his scheduled match with Rocco Stragmalia at the Madison Square arena.
A large number of officers were in the crowd and after the announcement that the match would not be permitted Langford and Stragmalia did not even put on the gloves.
The two fighters took the ring after the preliminaries and were introduced that they would stage a four round bout, but the authorities would not permit this either.
A round of "booing" greeted the announcement and the crowd remained several minutes hoping the officers would reconsider and let the match go on, but they waited in vain. No disorder took place.
BOWL AT BEACH
Anaheim Elk bowlers will go to Long Beach Friday evening to contest with Long Beach No. 2 in the Southern Elks league.
The local team will include Evans, Graham, Efker, M. Varner, Moore and McGaugh.

EXPECT LOCALS TO TAKE LAST BATTLE
Tho it is always a battle when Anaheim faces Pasadena, fans here-abouts expect to see the local Bills win their eighth and final game in the semi-finals of the Elks State baseball league. Anaheim has won the last ten games played, including three with teams outside the league.
Remage is expected back at third and Lewis on first. Hughes and Salveson will both be ready to toss the ball to Captain Buster Callan behind the mask.
Ray Bush, apparently, is out of the game for some time. He is reported to be at Banning on account of slight trouble to his lungs.

Auto Club Attorney Explains New Laws
A. T. Hutchinson, who serves in a legal capacity with the Auto Club of So. Calif., gave an interesting lecture on the new highway laws which go into effect September 1, before the Womens' Club today.
Before beginning his talk on the new rules, Mr. Lutchinson told of the first auto that appeared on a Paris boulevard in 1866, and two years later there were only 20. Now there are more than that many thousand, he said.
The speaker explained the two cent gasoline tax. This money will be used for maintenance of highways in the state, construction of new ones. He said the tax would probably effect trucking concerns more than pleasure cars. Through the new law concerning storage of care it is hoped to do away with much theft. When a car is bought, two certificates are presented, one which goes on the car, the other to remain with the sales agent until the car is paid for. A car stored in a down town or a private garage for more than 24 hours must be reported to the police.
The speed limit in the business district remains at 15 miles, 20 miles within the city limits and 15 miles at crossings where the view is obstructed. The open road limit is 25 miles per hour. The speed trap has been abolished and traffic officers will patrol the road, in plain view.
Signalling from the right-hand side of the car has been abolished and a signal must be given within 50 feet of where the driver intends to stop or turn a corner.
The new laws will affect all cities, large and small and speed limit signs must be posted.
At the request of president Lucy A. Wood, Paul V. Allen, local manager of the Auto club, introduced the speaker.
There were several guests at the meeting, including Emily Dalton, Marie Noll and Mrs. F. B. Hardon of the Modern Gas Appliance Co., who will become a member.
Plans were discussed for the dance at Orange-co park this evening.
FOOT FRACTURED
R. F. Bongberg of Yorba Linda, employed with the Yorba Linda Water Co., was brought to Anaheim this morning suffering from the results of an accident in which he received a fractured foot.
Other patients at the sanitarium include: Harry Ebeling, Fullerton; and Mrs. L. O. Mason, Buena Park.
