' WATER BALL,
BOXING AND
OTHER EVENTS
DEL MONTE, Cal., July 17 (by As
sociated Press). — Water baseball
games will be staged at Del Monte to
day and tomorrow between teams from
► the Olympic Club of San Francisco
and from Del Monte. Water baseball
was introduced in the Roman plunge
at Del Monte last year and furnished
exciting competition.
The game is played with seven men
on a side, a pitcher, catcher, three
basemen and two outfielders. A water
polo ball is used with a short stout
bat. The rules are the same as in
baseball with the players swimming to
bases.
Interest is added to the pastime in
that the basemen must be on their
guard to watch for the swimmers as
they often dive under and reach the
bases just as the runners on a base
ball field slide to base.

swimmers. Ross competed in many
events in the commonwealth late last

ment. Why should I claim that Aus
tralians are poor sports?”

YELLOWSTONE
WILD BUFFALO
ON CREASE
YELLOWSTONE PARK, Wyo., July
17 (by Associated Press).—Convincing
evidence that the wild buffalo of Yel
lowstone National park, the last sur
viving remnant of the great herds
which once roamed the western plains,
are on the increase, instead of dying
out, as was feared, has been obtined
in the discovery of a new group in the
southeast portion of the park. About
15 animals were observed, evidently
a part of the old herd, which it is
thought grew so large that some of
its members were forced to break
away and seek new pasturage.
Definite information has been ob
tained by park authorities that there
are now more than 100 of the wild
buffalo in the park. Formerly there
were only about half that number.
When discovered, the new herd was
within five miles of one of the largest
hotels in the park. A snapshot was
obtained of one of the animals, a fine
bull, probably one of the first photo
graphs taken of a wild buffalo.
Ordinarily the wild buffalo never
are seen by tourists and only rarely
by park authorities, even by the rang
ers who patrol the most remote sec
tions. The appearance of the new
herd close to the main lines of travel
was before the season opened and the
ainimals apparently had been lured
down from the mountain fastnesses by
the abudance of spring grass on the
lower levels. They disappeared into
untravelled country as soon as auto
mobiles became frequent along the
highways.
Forty-eight calves have been added
j this year to the tame buffalo herd of
the park, which mow has a population
of 500. Part of the tame herd has
been placed in corral at Mammoth Hot
Springs for the benefit of visitors.
ASCENT TO BE MADE

GENEVA, July 17 (by Associated
Press).—Colonel Charles Bruce and

layas, according to an announcement
received here from Zermatt. The ad

Swiss guides and porters in their at
tempt to conquer the highest mountain
peak on the globe.
