SPO TS HOLLYWOOD STARS SLOW TO TWINKLE BUT NOW FEATURE IN COAST FIGHT LOS ANGELES, Aug. 6.—It ap- pears that the Los Angeles club, winners of the first division of the 1030 Pacific Coast league pennant race, must keep a weather eye on its neighbor, Hollywood, 1929 cham- pion. When it was far too late to do asgreat deal about the first half of+'the contest, the Stars suddenly came to life after a sojourn in and near the cellar regions to climb into f"threatening position next to the fop of the list. A bunch of injuries and the fail- ure of a veteran hurling cast to swing into stride made Hollywood appear to be anything but a pen- | nant defender. To make things worse the Stars seemingly didn't 6oL the breaks.

Before the other teams were | aware, Manager Oscar Vitt had pulled his nine from third to the cellar into second from the lead. A streak of twelve straight wins was instrumental Now the Stars are ready to dupli- cate their 1920 feat, when they won the second division, defeated tha San Francisco Missions, first half | winners, in the playoff, and nailed the flag to the masthead at Wrig- ley Field. | — A ————— ALAN J.Gonp T T R Y S P Just as Yankee pennant prospects |for years have depended upon the |good health and digestion of Bahe Ruth, and Davis Cup hopes have {hinged annually on Big Bill Til- iden, so do the American polo forces |rely on Tommy Hitcheock to sup- ply the principal driving power Consequently, it is of much con- cern when the only ten-goal player in the world and leader -of Ameri- Sets illustrated.
