YANKS ANXIOUS FOR GIANTS IN SERIES By DAVIS J. WALSH (I. N. S. Sports Editor) NEW YORK, Sept. 23.—The New York Yankees almost in toto, have declared themselves on in the business of pulling for the Giants to win that odd game today and thus fall heir to their third straight national pennant. The Yankees seem to feel that it will be vastly more profitable to have the Giants, rather than the Cincinnati Reds, collaborate with them in the world's series melon cutting. They have accepted as fact the statement that an all Manhattan series will be worth $6,000 to each player involved. The Polo Grounds is a greatly enlarged enclosure this season. Playing to semi-capacity, the series will break all attendance records. It is difficult, of course, to forecast what New York will do with a big sporting event on its hands. For the opening game at the Yankee stadium, it is altogether likely that the merry villagers will gambol blithely up to the turnstiles just to see what it is all about. ANAHEIM CLASS B LOSES TO COMPTON Altho Anaheim class B football team lost to Compton 7 to 0 last evening, they won experience that will be invaluable.

There is a lot about football he will have to absorb before he will resemble the Great Golden Bear of old. The loss of the moral stimulus of the great Brick Muller will be felt more than his wonderful playing While Brick was in the game hismates played with that assurance that only some men can engender When Brick was out of the game the morale of the team was weakened. Charlie Erb was the brains of the team. His was the duty to divin- the other team's plays as well as handle his own team's strategy Charlie was not found wanting. It is very improbable that an equal for either Brick Muller or Charlie Erb will be developed for years. Andy Smith is experimenting with the new timber and he will fashion a new structure that will stand a lot of rough weather. In fact, Andy's Bear will be the big game for the other colleges to conquer. Bert Collma is again the middleweight champ of the coast by virtue of his own Harry Melcar at Vernon the other evening. Jimmy O'Hagen took Bert's honors from him a few weeks back, then Melcar took Jimmy's number and now Bert takes the crown away from Melcar. Bert is a whirlwind in the four-round game but did not look so well in the longer 'bouts back east. Bert may try his luck again soon when the fights TROJANS, CLASH T LOS ANGELES, "Fox" Stanton eleven to Bovard Kernoon to meet The game of the season premier test for while Elmer Hern varsity is expected with the victory has been the custom a highly spectaculair game is anticipate Stanton's team mystery to Trojan is known that the hard-charging line severe test to the attack.

Therefore Hen his men get attack program t ANAHEIM CLASS B LOSES TO COMPTON Altho Anaheim class B football team lost to Compton 7 to 0 last evening, they won experience that will be invaluable. At the first of the game, the local round seemed to hold the limelight. Their plays were well enacted and they received much favorable comment from Coach L. E. Sutherland. Schacht grabbed the ball, started down the field on a 60-yard dash and was nearing the goal post when the whistle blew. He was called back for stepping outside. Coach Sutherland charged players at each position several times. Bode and Schacht both looked good at quarter. Jayne, Tobin and Glass were other bright lights. Gonzales of the visiting team made the touch down and kicked the goal. An unusually large crowd was out, considering this was the first game and also a practice affair. A class B game will be played with Fullerton Tuesday. Tagging All the Bases (By L. N. S.) The Yankees defeated the Red Sox 4 to 3, but lost the society of Pipp and Meusel temporarily, the latter twisting his knee and the former turning a careless ankle. Battling for the sub-cellar title, the Braves beat the Phillies 7 to 2. The Tigers approached within two games of second place by beating the Indians 5 to 4. Home runs by Miller and O'Farrell allowed the Clubs to defeat the Pirates 8 to 2. RACING FEATURE OF L. A. COUNTY FAIR With 108 entries in the 11 trotting and pacing races, the five days of the Los Angeles County Fair at Pomona, October 16-20, and with two and three running races and a two-mile relay on the cards each day, racing fans are going to see some action. Some of the harness races will have 13 and 14 of the fastest horses in the state to start. As this is the final meet of the season, these horses should be in tip-top condition and very fast time is expected.

Jimmy O'Hagen took Bert's honors from him a few weeks back, then Melcar took Jimmy's number and now Bert takes the crown away from Melcar. Bert is a whirlwind in the four-round game but did not look so well in the longer bouts back east. Bert may try his luck again soon when the fights last longer. Baseball fans hail with delight the good news of the marked improvement of George Sisler, the greatest all-round player of a year ago. The last word is that George will be completely recovered by the next playing season. With George back in the lineup the Browns will be a serious flag contender. George is a wonderful drawing card. His department on and off the field is a credit to the game. Jack Dempsey, the world's greatest pugilist and conqueror of the Wild Bull of the Pampas, put three other bulls to the death but not with Iron Mike or Mary Ann either. Jack can shoot a wicked gun as well as sling a mean fist. The hides of three buffalo bulls bear testimony of the champ's marksmanship. The bulls were killed on Antelope island, in the Great Salt Lake, in a recent hunt. The Assistance League has asked Jack to help out by appearing in a benefit bout for Japanese relief. Dempsey who has just arrived at his home in Los Angeles has not made his future plans known only that he wishes to rest up for a time. Suzanne Lenglen, who at present holds the world’s tennis honors is so careful with her right hand that she seldom allows any one the privilege of shaking it. We say she is some particular with her valuable right hand. It may not be so valuable another season. Miss Helen Wills will give the Suzanne right a great try out when they meet. All is not well with Rogers Hornsby and the St. Louis Nationals. There has been rumor of infractions of rules and an open break between the star second baseman and his manager, but the real break came when Hornsby refused to play in Wednesday's game. The club management fined him $500, and also gave him an indefinite suspension. Rogers has not let the differences of himself and management impaire his playing this season for his record proved him to be the pier of all second basemen. The Savings, Loan and Building Association of Anaheim is the oldest in northern Orange county, established 1889; will pay 6 per cent lot of rough weather.

COLEMAN CHIROPRACTOR 6 Years Successful Practice in Los Angeles 250 E Center Street Phone $45 On the Ground Floor THE PLAIN DEALER: ANAHEIM, CALIF GOLF TENNIS TROJANS, CALTECH CLASH TOMORROW LOS ANGELES, Sept. 28.—Come "Fox" Stanton and his Caltecn eleven to Bovard Field tomorrow afternoon to meet Trojans in the first game of the season. This will be the premier test for both teams, and while Elmer Henderson's U. S. C. varsity is expected to ramp home with the victory by a big score, as has been the custom in seasons past, a highly spectacular and hard fought game is anticipated. Stanton's team is something of a mystery to Trojan followers, but it is known that the "Fox" has a heavy, hard-charging line that will prove a severe test to the Cardinal and Gold attack. It is probable that the Trojans will pack the ball a greater part of the time, with the Englateras playing a purely defensive game. That is just what Henderson wants—a team playing defensive football, and playing it well enough to make the Trojan backfield men resort to all their strategy to score. In spite of all his gloom, Henderson believes that this is liable to be "his year". For three years now he has been playing a defensive game against California, going in to win if possible, but to hold the Bear's score down at all costs. He was successful last year in holding the Bear to 12 points. This year he is going to sen da team out on the field against California that will have instructions to plow on and on towards the Bear goal until victory is won. It takes an attack, not merely a defense, to win. Therefore Henderson hopes to see his men get plenty of exercise on the attack program tomorrow and in the Saturday. WASHINGTON CUBS TO PLAY RICHFIELD The Washington Cubs, one of the fastest teams in Los Angeles, will play Richfield Spanish nine Sunday afternoon on the Richfield diamond, beginning at 2:30. Manager Ray Ortis has a strong lineup and is ready to put up the battle of the season, if necessary foa victory. Some changes have been made from last Sunday's positions. The lineup includes Jake Vetter, 1b; Chandis, 2b; LaPlante, ss; Travis, 3b; Morales, c; Ancener, cf; F. Castillo, lf; Bracamontes, p; Dunson, rf. FULLERTON MEETS HUNTINGTON BEACH The first football contest of the season was scheduled for 2:30 o'clock this afternoon on the Fullerton athletic grounds between Fullerton and Huntington Beach. TRY THE LA PALINA STOCKS CLOSE IRREGULAR NEW YORK, Sept. 28.—The stock market closed irregular today. Prices continued to fluctuate within the same trading area, in which they were kept during the past week or more. A four point break to 72½ in American woolen had an unsettling effect in the industrial list in the last hour. Railroad shares were practically neglected with the exception of New York Central, which after yielding over one point rose to about its previous close. Government bonds unchanged; railroad and other bonds were irregular. Stock sales today 677,200 shares; bonds $8,846,000.

PROMISE FAST GAME Placentia Merchants will play the Mary Pickford-Douglas Fairbanks baseball team, one of the best on the coast, they claim, Sunday afternoon at 2:30 on the Placentia Grammar school grounds at 2:30. Manager R. A. Patuso has a rapid aggregation lined up who promise to wallop the visitors to within an inch of their lives—figuratively speaking. CARDS REINSTATE COOK AND CLAYES Bill Cook and Al Clayes, popular football stars who felt the faculty ax at Stanford last Xmas vacation, are eligible for readmission. The decision of the Stanford scholarship society came too late, as Clayes is training at Arizona and Cook is at U. S. C. Glen "Tiny" Hartranft, of Fullerton, also let out. Henderson hopes to see his men get plenty of exercise on the attack program tomorrow and in the Pomona College game next Saturday. He knows that he will need a strong offensive against Washington on Oct. 20, and he intends to use these preliminary games to develop that attack. Just how the Trojanans will line up at the start is problematical and not of importance. It is likely that nearly every player on the Trojan bench will be shoved into the game at some time during its progress. It is not necessarily to be supposed, therefore, that the eleven men who first take the filed will be the same regulars who will start against the big Pacific Coast Conference elevens later in the season. It is probable that the Trojan line will be composed of the following men: Hayden Pythian and Newt Stark; ends; Norman Anderson and Ralph Cummings; tackles; Raymond Earl and John Hawkins; guards; Cot Rice, center. The backfield combination is a toss-up. It is possible that Johnny Lousalot will start at quarterback, with Hobbs Adams and John Riddle at halfback and Gordon Campbell at fullback. The more probable starting line-up, however, is Captain Chet Dolley, quarterback; Otto Anderson and Wallace Newman, halfbacks, and Gordon Campbell fullback. The U.S.C. Freshmen play their first game of the season tomorrow against Loyola College. This will be a preliminary to the varsity game. The fresh will probably line up in this manner. Coffman and Lewis, ends; Friend and Behrendt, tackles; Brite and Cox, guards; Cravath, center; Wilcox, quarterback; Taylor and Lee, halfbacks, and Laranetta, fullback.

It will company call on me in Name Address City Friday, September 28th, 1923 PROTEST DIVISION OF COUNTY LEAGUE Miss Irene Jacques represented Anaheim high school at the county coaches meeting at Santa Ana last evening. The main discussion centered around the decision of Fullerton and Santa Ana to withdraw from the Orange league and become members of the tri-county league. The Fullerton coach, Miss Florence Randall, was absent, and her side could not be expressed. Miss Alberta West, Santa Ana instructor, did not have much to say as this is her first year and does not know the standings of the various clubs. Coach Jacques was the chief objector and stated that the two teams belonged in the Orange league and should remain there. Coach Jacques stated that it was Orange and hunt-ington Beach that furnished the keenest competition and there was no reason why Fullerton and Orange should seek stronger competition. As the Fullerton coach was not there no schedule could be made, and the coaches will meet Tuesday at Santa Ana. The trouble started at a meeting of the boy's coaches, when the Fullerton and Santa Ana coaches wanted the girls to enter the same league as they. THREE L. A.
