The youngster started the week today with 16, representing four winners last week. Carl Meyer was second with 12. Tonight, Pasadena fans will see a real battle when the Pasadena night ball club entertains the Arcadia team. In their two previous encounters the locals won by very close scores, and Manager Watson of Arcadia is bound he is going to win this game. He is bringing two very fast pitchers in Coggman and Wright, Coggman being the better known here for his two well pitched games several weaks ago.

These boys throw the ball like lightning and are very hard men to beat. However, the Pasadena boys are hitting better, and after they begin playing two games a week, will be a hard club to beat. Rice, A. Wagner and Nolan are leading the club, with several of the others trailing them closely. Billy Norton, who is leading the Orange Belt night league in home runs, playing for La Habra, will be in the Pasadena line-up as will Howard Rady, one of the best infielders in the game.

After the British open come the American open and the amateur meets, but right now Bobby is chiefly concerned with the British open. Tough as the British amateur meet competition was, the field in the (Continued on Page 18) By JACK SORDS Central Press Sports Cartoonist-Writer Safely on the right side of that tough hurdle the British amateur golf championship Bobby Jones, aptly called Atlantas first citizen, is now getting into his stride for the second of the four he hopes to scale and turn the incredible feat of capturing the four greatest golf crowns four innings he did not allow a hit. Jesse Cox got a single off Williams in the fifth inning. Williams held the Sportland club to six hits, walked two men and fanned two. Jim Ault, a former Seattle Coast league pitcher, started on the mound for the Sportland club and last 1 2-3 innings, the Merchants getting four runs on six hits off him.

Ault was charged with the loss of the game. Dick Moudy, who was released by the Hollywood club in the Coast league last week, took up the duties on the mound, and the Merchants got 11 hits and scored four runs off him. Both pitchers had good support, as the Sportland club was charged with only one eror, but the local- Merchants had their hitting clothes on. Schilz got four hits out of four times up, and Jimmy McNabb and Frank Reynolds each got three hits. Sportland Scores Manager Coxs Sportland club scored its first runs in the sixth inning, putting two runs over on two singles and a double by Bapst.

The team scored one run in the seventh and the last two runs came in the ninth when Dick Cox was hit by a pitched ball. He went to second and J. Norton was safe at first on McClains error. Both advanced a base when J. Cox was thrown out at first and both scored when Chilz dropped Gilpins fly ball in right field.

It was a hard chance, but he got his hands on the ball and was charged with an error. Next Sunday the Merchants will play Monterey Fark at Brookside. PASADENA MERCHANTS AB. R. H.

STRIBLING WILL FIGHT CHICAGO, June 16. OP) William (Young) Stribling and Otto Von Porat, each aiming to Improve his position in the heavyweigth parade at the expense of the other, in the Chicago stadium Wednesday night, went into their final training exercises today with the southerner a 6 tp 5 favorite. Stribling took time out to go to New York for the Schmeling-Shar-key bout, while Von Porat remained at work. Striblings greater experience and superior ring craft were expected to offset Von Pnrats terrific punching power, although there was some wagering that Otto would give William his first knockout defeat. The "gate promises to be larger than the Von Porat-Gagnon bout three weeks ago.

The advance sale today had reached 320,000. and more than $70,000 worth of trade was anticipated by the time they climb into the ring.

Papke, on the mound for South Pasadena was in command of the situation at all times and allowed but five hits. In only inning did the visitors touch him for more than one safety.

Torrence started the game by scoring one run after two men were out. Clabourne, who had walked and been sacrificed to second by Mae, scored from second when Nel son dropped Wolffs fly. Almost the same play accounted for the visitors second run. In the third, Clabourne was safe on Chuck Leather error, was sacrificed to second by Mae and scored on Wolffs single to left field. After the third inning only one man got as far as second base.

South Pasadena fattened its batting average yesterday. All but two men hit Carpenter, McConnell and Mayer getting three each, and Papke two. South Pasadena tied the score in the last half of the first inning, put one more across in the second and in the fourth broke loose and scored five runs off five hits, one a triple and two doubles. Two more in the sixth and one in the seventh rounded out a good day at the plate. String McDonnell was with South Pasadena again yesterday and was very much in evidence at the plate.

He drove in four runs beside scoring one himself. In five trips to the plate he hit two singles, a triple and a sacrifice. At first base he played a perfect game, handling everything that came his way. PRINCETON CREW WINS POUGHKEEPSIE, N. June 16.

UP) Navy's victory over California, Princeton on Saturday has strengthened the easts hopes of victory in the varsity race of the inter-collegiate rowing association regatta here on June 26. That does not mean, however, that the far west is to be counted out of the picture in advance of the actual race. Navy's triumph was gained at the spring distance of a mile and three quarters. The Poughkeepsie classic is at four miles and rowing history is full of instances where crack spring crews failed at Poughkeepsie in the longer grind. California was beaten on Saturday by half a length, but the Golden Bears provided the big thrill of the race near the finish line, when they raised their stroke to 43 and kept it there.

They gained on the leading midshipmen, but not enough to avert their second defeat of the season. Washington, another far western representative at Poughkeepsie, beat the Golden Bears in a close finish early in the season. Nineteen crews have arrived, leaving only Washington and Wisconsin to put in an appearance. These two crews meet at Madison today. ULRICH INSTRUCTS SANTA MONICA, June 16.

The attendance dropped a mite below last year but not enough to make any difference. As a matter of fact the show itself was better attended tftis year than last, possibly because it was better and probably because more and more individuals are becoming crazy over horses. Last year during the show many lingered under the trees, enjoying the dancing and side show affairs which featured the event. This year there was a very encouraging change. The ring was the center of interest and when the horses and riders appeared the other entertainmnt was forgotten and the crowd filled the grandstand.

Those who watched the attendance figures closely declared that the ring activities were more heavily attended and more genuine interest revealed than at any time before. It is a great show and we look forward to it every year. The beauty of the setting, the informality of the entertainment and the quality of the show itself have made it the most interesting and colorful in the southland. While this show was probably even more fashionable than its predecessor, there was much less parading and much more attention to the horses and their performances which is, after all, a very good sign. Among the jumpers we were particularly impressed with the performances of Waterford, Judith, Ariel, Trinket and Pal O'Mine.

For sheer class Waterford would probably head our list of favorites in this class but for some reason or other we were impressed with Pal O'Mine. Pal OMine seemed to enjoy the show immensely, broadjumping the hurdles with little more than an inch clearance. Eagle is another horse that loves to jump. This grey gelding would rather jump than eat. While we are on the subject of this show it would be criminal to neglect to tell you about two little riders who were no bigger than dolls but who left the ring with prize ribbons.

The first was Phoebe Diane Bayly, daughter of Roy D. Bayly and the other was Corporal St. John of the Pacific Military academy. These two little tots put their steeds through the paces in great style and were one of the highlights of the Saturday show. We will not attempt to guess their size or ages but dimply state that the two of them could probably fit comfortably into a fair sized hat box.

When were wearing chin whiskers and talking in a cracked tenor they will be just coming into their own.

CP) Sacramento and Seattle were the gainers in yesterday's eight games closing the tenth week of the first half Pacific Coast league baseball season.
