...Angeles sheriff's office. The sportsmen fled wildly through the trees, but the sheriff's men rounded up 23 men, two old women selling sandwiches, a small boy who had dropped by "to have some fun," and 40 chickens, including Six-to-One Frank, Five-to-Three Vero and Even-Money Ason, three champion fighting cocks...
