For a time It looked as tho a new champion would be crowned in tho women's division, but Mrs, Harry Young proved herself a stubborn title holder by defeating Phoebe Nell Tidmarsh, of the Seattle Golf club, at the end of the second ex- tra hole, It was easily the feaure match of the fair sex play, and many wero the chances that the North Ender missed to topple the crown from the great Inglewoodian, A birdie four on the 20th hole won tho match, Mra.

If they fail, the manager is credited with at least trying. It seems that when a team is winning jhe manager always gets the breaks with his pinch- hitting selections. When the Athletics had a mort- gage on last place, Connie Mack seldom got a break with his so- called strategy. The real reason was lack of talent Now that he is again piloting a winner, Dame Fortune ts once more smiling on him. In a recent fray against Chicago he sent in three pinch-hitters and all of them delivered, winning the ball game One of the timely hits came in the sixth inning, driving in two runs, evening the count.

Nippon Tossers | to Play Former | Husky Ball Nine HE Japanese team, ‘“Daimai,” composed of Japanese news- jPaper men, will play the University of Washington team Saturday after- noon, In an exhibtion game. The Washington nine that will face the Japanese tossers, is composed of former players who made the trip to Japan two years ago. In one of the games they played on the jour ney, they met the Daimai squad and are playing them as a return courtesy. Tiny Leonan, former Washington hurler, and Elbert Harper, another old-timer, will do the chucking for the Huskies, with Hunter Miles catching. Four pitchers are in Iine for the job with the Daimal nine, Manager Kidikuli starting, Ono, Watanabe, Nitta, or Itawa in the game. Coshi- moto is the captain of the Daimai club, Youth Shows Elders How to Hit Targets Jack Franklin, a 12-year-old boy of Denver, Colo. is showing his elders how to shoot a rifle. He is one on the best trap shooters in the Middle West, His sister, Grace, also a leading ‘shot in the women's class. Rosenthall Is With San Antonio Squad Simon Rosenthall of Dorchester, Mass., who was bought by the Bos- ton Red Sox, is now playing with the San Antonio club of the Texas league. He will probably not report to the Sox until the spring training season.

Emmer is a more natural shortstop than Baldwin and can throw with more power and has more natural speed.

If Georgetown should force the |Nippon A. C. to keep their game, which is unlikely, the second team, or the Nippon Juniors, will oppose them, as the senior nine will not oppose the Merchants as they want to play against the Japanese team. The game will be played at the |Coast league park with the Three Brothers’ Dye Works, also of the Semipro league, furnishing the com- \petition in the second game. | Druxman's faces a comparatively easy game when it plays the Green Lake C.
