BASEBALL BOXING SPORTS PASADENA FINALLY DEFEATS ANAHEIM Pasadena Elks finally won a game from Anaheim yesterday at Brookside Park when Fannin, in the ninth-rapped out a double down the right foul line, scoring Ernie Haas who was perched on second after swinging at a wild throw for a third strike. It was a pitcher's battle which Harry Hughes deserved to win as he struck out 12 men and permitted but seven scattered hits. Nettles did the best pitching Pasadena has displayed against Anaheim in some time when he struck out eight and held the locals to six bingles. Anaheim scored first when Doty Bush, after attaining first on a fielder's choice, raced around the bags when Nettles pitched wild to McGallion threw wide to third. Pasadena evened the score in the sixth on two singles. Anaheim again took the lead in the eighth when Schrott doubled and scampered home on Pendleton's single. George Haas evened the score again for Pasadena in their half when he poled out a homer. The game was played before a large crowd. It was the first league game Anaheim has lost. However, Anaheim had already won the So. Cal title and will go to Eureka for the finals of the Elks State Baseball league, leaving here Sept. 16 and playing the game Sept. 20. Pasadena very generously agreed to come to Anaheim in two weeks for a benefit game, the proceeds to go to the expenses of shipping the team to Eureka. ANAHEIM AB. H. O. A. E.

Joe Benjamin, Bert Colima and a multitude of others who make their spending money, also their eats, thrust their endeavors in the ring are not professionals. We do not know what it requires to be a professional. Los Angeles' new chief of police knows. Perhaps he knows his stuff, and perhaps it is the beginning of the end of boxing. When the present law was framed it was meant to kill boxing in the state. If the law was enforced to the letter all boxing would be confined to purely amateur exhibitions put on by authentic clubs. No pursues could be offered nor could the contestants be paid. But the law has never been rigorously enforced. The four round game has flourished. Clubs have sprung up all over the state. The box fighters are many, in fact they number hundreds. Some follow other lines of endeavor while there are many who make boxing a profession. There are thousands and thousands of business men who get their only recreation from attending the boxing shows. The four round boxing game is not so brutal as the old unlimited fights. The strain of a four round bout is nothing compared with the longer fights. There is very little danger of permanent injury to the contestants in the short fights. Injuries happen after the physical strength has been drained to a low ebb. After a fighter has been exhausted, a stiff blow many times will result in a permanent injury.

VESTERDAY'S HOME RUNS There are thousands and thousands of business men who get their only recreation from attending the boxing shows. The four round boxing game is not so brutal as the old unlimited fights. The strain of a four round bout is nothing compared with the longer fights. There is very little danger of permanent injury to the contestants in the short fights. Injuries happen after the physical strength has been drained to a low ebh. After a fighter has been exhausted, a stiff blow many times will result in a permanent injury. If a boxer is in any physical condition he will not become exhausted to the danger point in four rounds. Boxing has about the widest following of any sport. If the L.A.police have started a crusade against the game they will find it hard to kill. Maybe the Langford affair will be the last we hear and maybe not. Joe Beckett, the great Englishman who went down and out from one blow from Georges Carpentier, has marked out a course that will make him world champion providing he does not get his paper chin in the way of another K.O. punch. He intends to knock out Carpentier in their next battle, which will take place September 27 or October 1. After disposing of Carpentier he will journey down to Argentine and upset Firpo. Then the next step is to land in America and knock Jack Dempsey off the seat of honor. Mr. Beckett's intended course is very plain and easy on paper but about as likely for the big Englishman to accomplish as for him to fly to the moon. Little Helen Willis is taking her recent honor as America's singles champion like a real American queen. She was met in her return home by a great gathering of admirers, and she was "seared stiff". Her honors have not gone to her head. She is too big and strong and healthy to allow herself to become puffed up. Her first idea on reaching home was to get some practice. If she keeps practicing until next year then look out. Suzanne Lenglen your days are numbered as world's champion.

N. S. Sports Editor) NEW YORK, Aug. 27.—At the risk of being discoureous to a prominent and wealthy guest the writer feels it incumbent to suggest at this moment that Luis Angel Firpo is making no serious attempt to prepare himself for his impending fight with Jack Dempsey. It lacks just 18 days of the time when Firpo will be asked to face the crisis of his fistic career. Eighteen days of preparation were not considered enough for Dempsey, the champion. They are hardly enough for Firpo, the challenger. Yet the latter has not deemed it necessary to settle down to the business of real training, according to advice from Atlantic City. His policy indicates either super-confidence or super-ignorance and they are equally fatuous. Carpentier put in two months of intensive training in an effort to gauge the distance to the ring floor. Gibbons and Dempsey were working for the Shelby affair six weeks before its scheduled date. Willard and Dempsey were at Toledo many weeks before their fight. Jeffries and Johnson trained for their Reno meeting for months. Firpo went to Atlantic City a trifle more than three weeks in advance of the Dempsey bout. As yet he hardly can be said to have improved each shining hour. Brief workouts with three sparring partners of the flat wheel variety, have been the order. The partners are Jeff Clark, erstwhile Joplin Ghost, a near-beer variety, with the speed of a Percheron and an Argentine heavyweight of BASEBALL TODAY AMERICAN LEAGUE Boston ... 000 000 000—0-3-0 Chi... 200 000 00x—2-6-1 Ferguson, Murray and Devormer.

A home run was jotted down for E. Reyes in the sixth inning. The bases were full which added considerably to the score. Enclinas and Castillo each made three DEL TORELLI AND SOME OF THE 1OO HINGLING BROS AND JOe del Torelli, the veteran clown of the Ringling Brothers and Bar-num & Bailey combined circus, likes Firpo went to Atlantic City a trifle more than three weeks in advance of the Dempsey bout. As yet he hardly can be said to have improved each shining hour. Brief workouts with three sparring partners of the flat wheel variety, have been the order. The partners are Jeff Clark, erstwhile Joplin Ghost, a near-beer variety, with the speed of a Percheron and an Argentine heavyweight of doubtful accomplishment. They are supposed to give Firpo some idea of what Dempsey's style may be and no doubt they do. Another element in the Latin's so-called preparation is known as Angel Horizato Lavell. He is Firpo's new trainer by proxy, the actual conditioning being directed by Felix Bunge, who remains in Buenos Aires and therefore is in a tactical position to know how much actual work Firpo may need each day, the actual stage of Firpo's development since returning to America, reaction to climatic conditions and everything. CY AGAIN LEADS PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 27.—Cy Williams, Phillies, today stepped into the lead again for major league home run honors when he connected with one of Sherdell's shoots for his 33rd circuit smash of the year. Williams made his auspicious hit in the fifth inning of the Philadelphia-St. Louis fame here. The Babe now trails Williams by one run. REYES HITS HOMER WITH BASES FULL The Richfield Spanish team carried away a 13 to 7 victory over the Pasadena M. W. A. on the Richfield diamond yesterday. A home run was jotted down for E. Reyes in the 6th innings. The bases were full which added considerably to the score. Enclinas and Castillo each made three base hits. SPARRING PARTNERS GIVEN REST TODAY WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, N.Y., Aug. 27.—The sparring partners of Jack Dempsey today earned a respite from the heavy battering of the champion in training practice. The title holder announced he would lay off training until Thursday, spending the vacation fishing in one of the numerous lakes in the Adirondacks. By Thirday, the champion expects to have additional sparring mates to assist George Godfrey and Jack Burke, who have borne the brunt of rounding him into condition. Dempsey plans two final weeks of conditioning which will make him fit for Luts Firpo in their fight on September 14. Dempsey is now down around 194. He expects to enter the ring weighing around 188 pounds.

DEATH PITTSBURG, Aug. 27.—As an aftermath of the rioting between civilians and the Ku Klux Klan, when the latter attempted to parade through Carnegie, Pa., late Saturday night and early Sunday morning, Patrick McDermott, 65, an undertaker, is being held here in jail today in connection with the death of Thomas R. Abbott, of Atlasburg, Pa., a klansman. A $2,500 reward has been offered by the klan for the arrest and conviction of Abbott's slayer or slayers, another $2,500 offered for the arrest and conviction of the inciters of the fatal riot and more than 100 klansmen are guarding the garapet on the hill just outside of Carnegie, where the noviates were initiated Saturday evening. Both rewards are understood to have been offered by the Pennsylvania realm, Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. Dr. H. W. Evans, imperial wizard of the order, who attended the meeting, issued a statement in which he declared "Klansman Abbott, was killed because he exercised his constitutional right to peaceable assembly, free speech and free movement on the highway of our country." He also said that "the action of the mob at Carnegie senses of anarchy." Sixteen men who were arrested early yesterday in connection with the rioting were released. No charges were placed against them. Three men are being held in the county jail, who are said to have had revolvers and a handful of bricks during the fighting. The ten reported wounded are recovering, according to authorities, today. It is estimated that fully 20,000 klansmen attended the initiation Saturday night.
