GREAT CROWD SEES 11 TO 11 TIE GAME The biggest crowd that ever witnessed a ball game at Anaheim high field yesterday afternoon saw the local Bills throw away a glorious chance to trample over the Shell Oil Co. team of Signal Hill in the second game for the playoff for the southland's semi-pro title. After having the content sewed-up 9 to 1 in the fourth frame, the Anaheimers allowed the Josh Clark outfit to put across enough tallies in the third, fourth and ninth frames to the score 11 to 11, the game being called at the end of the 10th on account of darkness. Anaheim got away to the jump in the second stanza when Harry Hughes, John and Art Ramage clicked out hits which resulted in the Elks scoring four runs. Ramage's hit, which went for four bases, was the big thrill of this inning. In the next frame the Elks hopped on Pallas for three more runs. Hawkins drove the ball out of the lot for a home run. In the meantime, Harry Hughes showed superb form, allowing but two hits and one run. However, in the fifth, Hughes began to weaken, allowing a couple of bases on balls, combined with a pair of blows, giving the Royal Dutchmen three runs. The scoring of these runs seemed to encourage the Long Beach gang to greater efforts and in the next frame they pushed over four more markers. The old fighting spirit of the visitors was brought to the front in the ninth stanza when they shoved over three more tallies, evening up the score. In this frame the game was delayed as several thousand fans swarmed on the field when Umpire Leischner ruled Dela Guerra's hit a home run. The Pennant Race The Yanks woke up today to find that they need only one more victory to chase the American league pennant for the third time. They have 16 more games to play. Even if the Indians, 18-1-2 games to the rear, win all of their remaining 21 games, they cannot overhaul the Yanks if the latter chalk up another victory. The Giants are finding the going rough. Today the Reds have regained second place. The Giants top them by four games, and 14 four and a half games ahead of the Pirates. The Giants, however, can play a little better than .500, while the Reds and Pirates must play nearly 1000 per cent to overtake them. If the Giants win seven of their remaining 13 contests, the Reds must win 12 of their 13 remaining games to pass them, while in this event the Pirates can win the pennant with 15 victories of their 16 remaining games. RICHFIELD LOSES TO PLACENTIA, 8-4 Richfield-Spanish team was defeated yesterday 8 to 4 by the Placentia Merchants, D. Chandes, pitcher for Richfield, was knocked from the box after striking out four men Jake Vetter pitched the two last innings. This was one of the hardest fought games of the season and at the 7th inning the score stood a tie, 3 to 3. From then on the scorekeeper needed an adding machine to record the runs for the Merchants. Chandes is staging a comeback and played in Texas Vetter. combined with a pair of blows, giving the Royal Dutchmen three runs.

The old fighting spirit of the visitors was brought to the front in the ninth stanza when they shoved over three more tallies, evening up the score. In this frame the game was delayed as several thousand fans swarmed on the field when Umpire Leischuer ruled Dela Guerra's hit a home run. This decision proved to be right, the tail leaving the umpire's vision by being hit ever a row of automobiles in deep left field. This blow tied the score. Neither team scored in the tenth and at this stage the fracas was called. ANAHEIM ELKS AB. H. O. A. E. Pendelton, ss ... 6 2 2 1 1 B. Callan, c. ... 4 1 4 1 0 G.

WALSH (I. N. S. Sjorts Editor) NEW YORK, Sept. 17. — Having learned one lesson via the rather painful process of a punch on his Latin frontispiece, Luis Firpo is about to take on the second. He announced today through Gilermo Widmer, his secretary, interpreter and general fetch-this, that he would sign no more peremptory contracts with Tex Rickard, demanding his presence in the ring against Dempsey within a given period of time. Rickard picked the last spot, but Firpo intimates that he will not have much to do with picking the next. It was also learned that the zadeyed Firpo plans to engage Johnson as his teacher and will enter the next championship contest with expert handlers in his corner. Johnson worked out with Firpo daily before the milk fund show last May, and it was noted then that the Latin was fast gaining some faint inkling of what this game of fists war all about. Johnson, however, was extended the courtesy of the open door leading out, and from that moment Firpo's improvement seemed to come to parade rest. What, if anything, Firpo plans to do about a trainer appears to be a matter of some doubt. It will not be Jimmy DeForest, however, the senor being quite definite on that point. He is equally positive that he will not meet Dempsey again until next summer. The champion agrees with him. The only spots where such a bout could be held during the local off season, are Argentina and Tis Juana, but neither will hope to gain the attraction. The return bout is for New York, and none other. Rickard has Firpo signed to a contract for a Wills match at Buenos Aires. BERKELEY THREATENED AS FLAMES SWEEP BUILDINGS BERKELEY, Sept. 17. — Starting from a widespread grass fire at 3:10 p.m., twelve homes had been destroyed in the Thousand Oaks section and the flames were spreading. The fire department has given up and is absolutely helpless, it was admitted on all sides. Residents are moving their household effects and panic has gripped the entire city. A haze of smoke has obscured the sun and the heat is intense. The entire student body of the U. of O. has been organized to keep the flames from destroying the institution... Calls for aid have been sent to every city in the Bay region, but little equipment can be spared because of the fire menace at home, caused by dozens of grass and forest fires. A big $200,000 apartment house in Thousand Oaks was among the buildings destroyed. FIRE AT BERKELEY BERKELEY, Sept. 17. — A widespread grass fire raging in the hills back of Berkeley was sweeping dangerously near the city limits late this afternoon. All available Berkeley fire equipment has been rushed to the fire area and hundreds of volunteers are being enlisted to take part in the battle that now is declared to be highly menacing. WAREHOUSE BURNS SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 17. — After burning fiercely for two hours, a spectacular fire which totally destroyed a So. Pac. Co. warehouse, was brought under control at noon today. Property damage was estimated at $10,000. In addition, 10 carloads of crude rubber, 3200 bags of rice and three carloads of other grain were consumed. 100 CONVICTS AID IN FIGHTING FIRE SALEM, Ore., Sept. 17. — More than 100 convicts and many firemen battled a menacing fire which broke out shortly after noon today in the flax mills at the state penitentiary here. FEARED MEXICAN FATALLY INJURED A Mexican named Jesus Janirez, who lives on Santa Ana-st., was perhaps fatally injured this morning when the auto in which he was riding turned turtle, and spilled him and two companions. The Mexicans were brot to the Anaheim sanitarium, and transferred to the count hospital. Only Janirez was seriously hurt. His injuries consist of a fracture in the front part of the head. The other two were taken home. NAB FULLERTON MAN ON LIQUOR CHARGE Paul C. Glenn of Fullerton was arrested over the week-end by Fullerton police on the charge of transporting liquor. He was expected to appear before Judge French today. Other alleged offenders scheduled to appear before Judge French today were: Lew Puschig, Louis Just, Archie Barron, Edward Jungmann and E. Verdugs, all of Los Angeles. They were charged with trespassing. Ed Rogue was arrested Saturday What, if anything, Firpo plans to do about a trainer appears to be a matter of some doubt. It will not be Jimmy DeForest, however, the senior being quite definite on that point. He is equally positive that he will not meet Dempsey again until next summer. The champion agrees with him. The only spots where such a bout could be held during the local off season, are Argentina and Tia Juana, but neither will hope to gain the attraction. The return bout is for New York, and none other. Rickard has Firpo signed to a contract for a Willis match at Buenos Aires, but Harry will have none of it. "I have no mind to spend the rest of my life in a South American jail," was his statement on this subject today. NEW BOXING ARENA WILL SEAT 2000 Boxing will enjoy a wonderful renaissance in Orange-co., if plans of the Orange-co. Athletic Club go thru. The club will finish at time for a big card which will be put on in an arena $5 by $5 feet at Orana with an 18-foot ring, seats for 2,000 spectators, etc. In the rear will be parking space sufficient to accommodate the utmost demands of patrons. The building contains hundreds of ringside seats, and every seat in the building is good. On one side is space for an orchestra, the ventilation arrangements by window and top are perfect and the place will be well lighted. Dandy Dick Griffin, famous ban-tamweight, will be present at the opening card tomorrow night, it is announced. Griffin has met some of the best men in the country. He will challenge the winner of the match at Holloywood Friday night between Midget Smith and George Marks at the American Legion benefit bouts. C. J. McCoy is matchmaker of the club and Henry Johnson is secretary George Antoine is in charge of concessions. There will be six all-star bouts tomorrow night, all of them lively.

BASEBALL PRACTICE STARTS FOR GIRLS First practice of the girls' baseball squads at Anaheim Hi was to be held this evening on the spacious field under the direction of Coach Irene Jacques. Coach Jacques expected more than 100 girls to turn out and practice for the class games, which will be held in the near future. The girls are very enthusiastic over baseball and a successful property damage was estimated at $10,000. In addition, 10 carloads of crude rubber, 3200 bags of rice and three carloads of other grain were consumed. 100 CONVICTS AID IN FIGHTING FIRE SALEM, Ore., Sept. 17—More than 100 convicts and many firemen battled a menacing fire which broke out shortly after noon today in the flax mills at the state penitentiary here. Flax valued at $100,000 and several small buildings are endangered. While trusties fought the flames, other convicts were being watched in their cells by armed guards. Flax straw and flaxseed worth $20,000 has been destroyed. Unless the wind shifts it is believed the main penitentiary building will not be endangered. Spontaneous combustion was assigned as the cause of the fire. Tagging All the Bases With pop bottles to the left of them and pop bottles to the right of them, the Giants loped onward to a 3 to 1 decision over the Cubs in the presence of Commissioner Landis and President Heydler. The bottles were directed impartially at the Giants and Umpire Moran, whose decisions failed to meet with general favor. Mogridge and Russell were equally obliging in the matter of base hits and the Browns beat the Schatzors, 7 to 3. The Cardinals made it three out of four from the Phillos by winning in the ninth on Freigau's single, 3 to 2, Sherdell outpitching Ring.

WOMAN ROBS STORE SEATTLE, Sept. 17—Drawing an automatic pistol from her handbag when she opened it ostensibly to get a nickel to pay for a cake of soak, a comely and well-dressed woman of about 35 held up Arthur McDonald, manager of a pigly-wiggly store today and forced him to give her the contents of his cash register—about $200.
