Sports Fifty -three Cyclers Meet in Handicap Big Crorvd Witnesses Competi' iion in Which Many Wheel men lake rart The bicycle track which forms part cf the wonderful athletic stadium in Golden Gate park was dedicated by the California associated cyclers yesterday \u25a0with races for the western champion ships. There wb.s a big crowd of spec tators present and they had the op portunity of seeing the largest field that ever started in a track race on this coast. The three mile handicap brought out' S3 etarters and they presented a pic- 1 turesque appearance as they raced i about the oval. The race was won by A.

Halstead also won the five mile F<ratch race and was the only rider to place two events to hie credit There was a doubt as to the measurement of The track, so that the times announced: were misleading. The distances were j fhort in all the race*, thus making the time appear unusually fast. The Stockton trophy race, which was ] ; to have been the big event of the day. j was postponed. There were several protests which will hare to be sub • m!tted to the cycling officials for de cision. The Garden City wheelmen claimed that they had not been given the customary 30 days' notice that the race was to be run. The New Century ; wheelmen protested Walter DeMara, 1 the star rider of the Bay City wheel- J men. It is charged that DeMara raced < _ for money at Salt Lake. The wheel- j itata must have a separate code of ath- ! letlc morals, as the present governing •'body of the cport has decided that a rid^r may accept money up to ISS and Etiil retain his amateur standing.

Hornets Lose Game to Vampires OAKLAND, Nov. 10. — The short ref- I erfe crop was ac-alr. responsible for the postponement of one of the soccer league games, the official detailed for •the Hornet-Vampire game at Alameda failles to put In an appearance. A friendly contest was arranged and the Hornets were swamped by a 9 to 0 score. The Albion Rovers maintained their unbeaten record by defeating the .Scotias by 2 goals to 0. An overscrappy \u25a0h'cotian was ordered off the field by the referee and the Scotchmen protested the game on this account. As the ref eree -was the regular official and his <i*?cisions are supposed to be final, there is little chance of the protest availing. The Rover-Scotia game was an ex hibition of team work compared to the mlck and rush frame, the Rovers pos sessing the combination. There was ittlo to rhose betv.-en the teams in the irst half hour, but the superiority of the Hovers was scon before the close of the first period. Milne and Donohue did- many clever things on the wing. . and with <""ockburn playing a superb frame behind them, the Scotia custo dian was kept en tentor hooks. Ko \ scoring was accomplished in this period. The Scotlas showed Improved form In the final half and made many -dan jrerous raids on the Rover goal. Steven son, the reserve goal keeper, who was oJSc'ating between the sticks for the Albior.s, was very unsteady and a goal was imminent every time the Scotias got within shooting distance. \u25a0 There were several promising rows rtopped !n the bud, but two of the play ts finally got together and a lively ' fcuSle ensued in midfleld. As a result of the trouble Glenn of the Scotias was ordered off the field by the referee and a <jflay of five minutes was caused by the artr^mentlve proclivities of the de- I osed player's team mates. With 10 p.srainst 11 the Scotch lads were no match for the Rovers, and before the f:nish the Maroons scored a couple of \u25a0groals and won the game. tThe following players took part: Scotias — Buchannan, Sharp, Dewar, Reed, Livingston, "Wardlaw, Armour, Fornrnervlile. Glenn, Haig and Briggs. Albion Rovers — Stevenson, Selkirn, "McLaughlin. Mclntyre. Cockbum, Me- Kiernon. Milne. Donohue, Petrle, Bal main and Pike. Referee — Ackman. . FIND BILLET DOUX IN HATS Stanford Rooters Receive Messages From Eastern Working Girls STANFORD UNIVERSITY. Nov. 10.— To find tucked under the bands of their rooting hats sweet little billet doux from the girls who made the hats in the eastern factories has been the ex perience of the collegians of Stanford "university. "I hope you win the game." "hurrah for the cardinal" and similar messages, signed by the fair . makers, together with their addresses, has set the male community of Stanford agog. The hats were manufactured at Heading. Pa., and to that place several hundred letters are speeding asking for further particulars concerning the makers of the hats which' graced the cardinal rooting section yesterday.

J The Honolulu Stars hun? another one on the pick me up aggregation at the Valencia street lot yesterday afternoon by shoring- five runs through in the second period. The morning' game west 12 rattling innings to a tie, the ecore standing S to 3 when the time limit expired. Big crowds viewed both games and there was nobody who could cay that he or she did not get an honest run for the money left at the box office. The appearance of Frank Chances, leader or the Chicago Cuba, tho world's greatest ball team, lent a lot of class to both events and Incidentally brought many a dollar over the counter. Chance played first base for the losers, bnt if everybody else on the teem performed as he did there might have been a dif ferent result. \u25b2 fierce bombardment of the curres of Willis Hogan by the Stars marred the afternoon' game In the second inning. With this round cut out the game would have been one sweet exhi bition, with honors about even up. But it only takes one round to spoil any kind of a ball game. Donahue opened up the second with a hit to short and Devereaux put the ball down at the plate. Hogan tossed It away at first and both men ad vanced a peg. Burns' long fly to left let Donahue eneak in and Devereaux registered after Hildebrand and Zeider had stung the leather on the beak. Heine Heltmuller came along with a single and Nick Williams polished off the good \u25a0work with a three cushloner against the left field fence, making It five for the inning and six for the game, the Stars having gathered one during the previous round. Big Billy Burns twisted 'em around the necks of his opponents in a most bewildering manner up to the seventh, when Pa Van Haltren sneaked In a bit and beat it to the pan on Piper's two bagger to center and wild pitch. A hit by Wheeler and a bit of rough fielding on the part of the Stars gave the pick lings their second and last one in the getaway spasm. Chance playe<l seven Innings. The first time up he -was given a great ova tion after being introduced as "the greatest ball player In the world." He immediately responded with a double against the center field fence. His next try resulted In a pretty single through the Infield. He showed a lot of class around the first bag and got away with 13 putouts. Next "Wednesday afternoon the Stars will play the St. Marys college team on the local field. St. Mary's expected to play Hal Chase, the great first base man of the New York Americans, but as Chase Is an outlaw player tho other league men cannot appear if he is In the game. President Cal Ewlng settled the matter definitely last night by stat ing that Chase must keep away if the Pacific coast league players take part in the game. The score: HONOLULU STABS „.,.. .

BALL PLAYERS CONTEST A friendly contest before the'after noon game held the attention of the spectators for a half, hour and fur nished a lot of fun. The. 50 yard dash was a spirited affair between Piper, and Blankenship, and the little fellow beat- the Washington star out by a nose in the fast time of five and a quarter seconds. Melcholr got away •with the accurate throwing contest, outheaving Wheeler. Bill Devereaux. Pat Donahue, Zeider, Hildebrand and Vsn Haltren. Piper scored his second victory over Blenkenshlp in running the bases by going the route in 14 *i seconds, just a quarter of a second faster than Blank. The long distance throwing event was Zelder's. Re threw the ball 306 feet, easily beating Heine Heitmuller, his nearest opponent.

Nov. 10.— In a game full of poor plays that make excitement for the bleachers, San Jose- this afternoon defeated Oakland by breaking a 3 to S tie in the ninth Inning. The score at the end was 4 to S. Bloomceld. who has signed to play next year with MoCredie's Portland team, was in the box for the visitors, while an amateur, Rudolph, represent ed the prune pickers on the rubber. The Oakland men hit the latter' 3 offer- Ings hard but never consecutively and, barring errors by Webber at second base, should have won the gams. Web ber fell down on four of the easiest chances that come t° second basemen. Bloomneld, as usual, had the kind of curves the locals find hard to locate, but poor support took away his cour age and in the latter part of the game his old time wlldness came back with j a rush. Three double plays credited to the locals kept the contest interest- Ing. In two of these Hal Chase, who figures in the official score as Shultz, took part. Lacey, stolen from the ] Mountain View team, stabbed a hot liner with one hand and threw a ven turesome runner out at first. Chase's work with the stick was the best he has yet done here.

Kaufman Will Train at Harbin Springs Al Kaufman, the young California boxer who is to meet Jack (Twin) Sul livan at the Mission street arena on the afternoon of Thanksgiving day, will leave for Harbin Springs this morning. He will be accompanied by Manager Billy Delaney, who will give him a careful preparation for the fight. Delaney expects to send Kauf man into the ring much .lighter than he has been fighting In the past, so there will not be such a disparity as was expected In the size of the men. Kaufman was above the 200 pounfi mark for a time, but lost some of this weight on his recent eastern trip. If the work he does at Harbin has the expected effect he may enter the rins; not far from the 180 pound mark. As Sullivan usually weighs about 175 pounds, there will be little to choose between them In this particular. Kauf man wants to secure Denver Ed Mar tin as a sparring: partner, as he thinks the . clever colored man would help him develop his epeed. Sullivan is at Shannon's, ' and, ' be tween his gymnasium and his piano he is getting into good condition. Sul livan is a great entertainer, and a piano is as much a necessary, adjunct of his training quarters as a punching bag, or a sparring partner. Owen Moran entertained a large crowd at Shannon's yesterday by box- Ing three fast rounds with Alf Wicks, his English trainer. Their work was so Interesting that It drew 'applause after each round. Moran has been treated 6O well here that he feels quite at home, and there is nothing to t dis turb his preparations for his meeting with. Nell. Neil is losing no time and promises to be fit for the severest competition when the date of the fight comes around. He has not done much boxing for ». number of months, so he Is pay ing particular attention to that de partment of his training. He' is box ing v wlth ,all comers at his Emeryville quarters and they can't come too big or too fast for him. . \ .'. Liberal adraoces on diamonds and Jewelry. BsJUwia Jewelry Co., 12tt T» S« *r ± • ; Rugby Experts Agree on Picked Team Strong Combination Could Be Selected From Among the Varsity Players William Unmack In the east ft la the oustom at the close of 'the Intercollegiate football sea son to publish an "all America" foot ball eleven, composed of the star play ers. This course was followed here some years ago when an all Pacific coast team was published. The Rugby game in the universities of America has its stronghold on this ooast, and Z think the selection of an "all America Rugby fifteen" would not bo o^t of place, After consultation with several other Rutfby experts, the following team has been seleet«ds Fullback— Brtflejr (Oatttocala). Three-Quarters — Holman (Stanford), Vandervoort (Stanford)* Johns (Cali fornia), FIT«-«Jsrlrths— Cerf <CaltfDraJs\ Oa nong (Stanford). Half— Fenton (9tsmforO> Wing forward— -Taller (CaHtornJa). Forwards— Ko«rn*r (Stanford), Ba* iccott (California^, P»mb«rton( Stan ford), Freeman (Kerada), Ball (Cali fornia), Miller (Stanford), Budalman (California). Baok substitute* — Cadwalader (Stan ford), DwlEßins (California), Mitchell (Stanford). Forward substitutes — - Fairbanks (California). Crawford (Stanford), Rhyne \u25a0 (Stanford), Twitchell (Califor nia). This lineup naturally win not please every one, especially at Stanford and California, but if you take the team all in all I think it will be found to be an extremely strong combination. After one week's training I hay* no hesita tion in saylaar that the above team would make a splendid showing against any New Zealand or Australian senior club team. For Instance, place it against the Sydney university team and there would be a struggle royal. Against a combined all black or Aus tralian team the players would put up a good fight, but would stand no chance to win. » The team has been selected from among the best players in Nevada, Cali fornia and Stanford universities. Butler at fullback has played consist ently all through tha season and his ability for the position made his selec tion certain. On- Saturday's play alone he would not have been selected, but one has to look back through the sea son to get a reliable record to go by. Vandervoort was acknowledged by all to be the best center three-quarter playing In the universities. Holman brought forth a lot of dis cussion, but on past performances and Saturday's showing he was selected in preference to Dwigrglns. Johns was se lected without much opposition. Cerf and Oanong would make a beau tiful pair at five. At halfback there is no disputing Fenton's selection. He is a half baok worthy to be selected in the best team that either New South Wales or Queensland could produce. Tuller has a cinch on the wing for ward position and his play all through the season In this position has been excellent. • Th« forwards were selected on their all round ability, rath'«r \ than on" their ntnees for one particular position in the scrum. I think a forward ought to be able to take any position, wheth er front or rear rank. The selection of Freeman of Nevada in the pack will probably surprise many, but by his splendid games here and against the Barbarians In Reno, his selection could not very well be overlooked. The selection of two front rankers created a lot of discussion. It was pointed out that Koerner and Barnl cott were not equally . matched in height.. As before stated, my opinion 'is. that every player should be compe tent to fill any forward position. With this in view, and with the sole object of selecting the beat possible team, the forwards were all selected, as were the backs, on their all round ability. The Barbarians have issued a chal lenge to Saturday's victorious team. I would like to see them play a picked team from the varsities. It would be a good game and would bring out the best of Rugby in each team. — In my report of Saturday's game, as published in The Call, I made an er ror, which I feel It my duty to correct. The error was made through my be coming involved in a 'discussion on the * number of rubstitutes. When writing the report I was - under the impression that California had used her three substitutes and brought Re nouf on as a fourth. I made the mis take in confusing i a Stanford substi tute for a California one. I did not discover the- error till too late and It is due California that I make this ex planation. California only used three substitutes — Dyer. Olascock and Re nouf. This Is all the rules call for and the blue and gold were Justified In putting in their third man if they saw fit. \u25a0 WILL WEAKEN RUGBY TEAMS Stanford Will Lose Fewer Players Than Berkeley by Graduation STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Nov. 10.— Looking over the list of the Rugby gladiators who battled yesterday: it 's noticeable to : those who have followed college sports that the defeated team of the University .of California will be practically disbanded by graduation this year,. while at Stanford the ranks of the victorious .fighters will be but little depleted. "Nine seniors who fought in the lineup, of the blue and gold yesterday will take their degrees In May. Of the Palo Alto forces but six are seniors and of this number but two are certain to leave Stanford. Of the winning varsity of yesterday Captain Koerner, JEthyne. Pemberton, Miller, Kenny. Fenton and Vandervoort ar« seniors. Of the Berkeley men Bar nicott, Budleman. Stow, % Harris. ,. Cap tain Tuller, Jlrnmio Scaeff er, Sorenson and ' Butler should graduate and leave the ranks of "the men across the bay. Captain* Koerner, should he graduate, will probably return to take post gTad uate work at Stanford, and again be a tower of strength in the front rank of the cardinal scrum.

Jeffery The sensational victory of Jack Nun nally in the opening handicap on Sat urday leads to the conviction that ; the Sierra Nevada stable will have to he reckoned with In the decision of the stakes for which he and his stablemate, the clever mare Neva Lee, have been nominated. Both of these horses can eprlnt as well as go a route. Jack Nunnally came out of Saturday's race In splendid-- shape and It is not at all improbable that he will be a starter in the Oakland handicap at 6y» furlongs, which will be the stake feature of next Saturday's card." This race will be scarcely less valuable than the Open ing handicap .and will be well .worth maklngr &Md for* Neva Lee is not ret reedy for a race, but is standing train ing after being on the shelf for a year and will be «een under colors shortly. The ; Slerm Nevada stable has . a com fortable lead In the winning owners' list and, may. be able to hold it for sosm time. It has been leaned that the swerv ing of Tack Nunnally In the. stretch Saturday was due, not to tiring, but to the slipping of one of Jockey Miller's relas. The horse has an exceedingly sensitive mouth and responds with re markable rapidity to the slightest touch of his rider. When he first came into the possession of his present own er it was difficult to control him on the track on account of this sensitive ness. . The card far today at Bmeryrflle Is better than tbt aTerage, as Monday cards go. Large fields will be the role and all the races hare an open look. The opener will be a flTe furlong dash for 3 year olds. Heather Scott, Harrel and Herfres look likeliest of the lot, bat - others hare undoubted chances. These three hare shown by their work that they are ready to race. Lackfoot, from the Carman stable, has also been working well. Emma G, from the stable of. M. J. Daly, has been here only a few days. Banna tyno Is a maiden In the stable of J. S. Hawkins. Tawasentha looks to be the class of the selling platers In the second, a subscription affair at six furlongs. Sba Is fit and has her speed. May Amelia. Aftermath and Crip bare also been working well. Eyebrlgbt. starting here for the first time. Is not much. Of the dozen entered for the third. Pelham and Renben are likely to be fighting It (rat at the finish. Pelham has been breaking watches in Ms work and will win if be can last six fur longs. Beaben is In good shape after baring ran same good races in the north. Cholk Hed rick Is fast, bnt erratic, harlng a tendency to ran oat In the stretch. * . The fourth, a futurity course sprint for all ages, has \u25a0 attracted the classiest field on the card. S. C. Hlldreth's crack colt. Meellck. will rule farorlte. bat B. F. Carman's Fleming may be able to take the Hlldreth colt's measure, as It ' will be a case of a 2 year old conceding a chunk of weight to a 3 year old. Fleming ran a clever race In Saturday's futurity course sprint after being as good as left at the poet. Creston has been working great puns, a half in less than :43 being placed to his credit yesterday. Orcban looks to hare it on the others In the fifth, a selling affair at a mile and a sixteenth, with Nabonassar as the contender. Orchan beat Nabonaasar handily enough Saturday. Kermlt. a horse that Is generally a "hot" - thing. Is likely to run Into the show. The mile purse race, with which the program Is scheduled to close, will be contested by a clever and well balanced field. - Marc Antony II and Colonel White are horses of fair class and hare been doing well In their work. They are likely to be right there at the end. Masea is hardly ready In the opinion of the work watch era.: San Alrlso and Bed Leaf are fit. Veil had j bad lock In Saturday's stake eTent tnd may do better today. She Is a fast trick and has worked sensationally well. Optician worked rery fast for the Opening handicap, bat may be orertralned a bit. \u25a0 • \u25a0 - . - ; " A number- of handicaps arranged for this week at Oakland will bring out the best horses in trslnlng, including a number of star performers from eastern points. \u25a0 Interest will center principally Itn the Oakland handicap to be run Saturday next. It is at six and a half furlongs for 2 year olds and up ward and has $1,600 added. Among the eligible* may be mentioned Jack Nunnally, Uncle. Mont gomery. Veil, Marc Antony 11, Bapld Water, Meellck, Gene BusseU, Sujrannald, Ed Hall, Acro bat and Magazine. The Clorerdale handicap at a mile and a sixteenth will also -be run Saturday. The Santa Bosa handicap will be the attraction tomorrow and Wednesday there win be the $1,000 Santa Cruz handicap. Robert McKeerer, Boy Balney's betting com missioner, arrired yesterday from New -York, and reported that 13 bones belonging to Balney, T. M. Cassldy and D. M. Kelly, In charge of Ed Peters, left New York for Emeryrllle last Tues day. The Bainey string includes Horace E. Stray and Glenham. Cassldr's horses are- Greeno and Bight and True. In the Kelly string are Edna Jackson. Anna May, Slickaway, Sly Bess and other well known performers. W. *D. Mlllard arrired at Emeryrine. ' yester day and annonnced that his hors* Mandarin would be shipped here from Los Angeles in a day or two to run In n«xt Saturday's stake. Mlllard will also bring Baron Esher and Needful here from the south. •'• • .1".';; That ; there will be a substantial Increase. In the number of books at Wednesday's cutln !s considered certain, . In riew of the heaTy play of Saturday, coupled with the fact that a great many book makers are on the ground who failed to go on at the first cutln because of the un certainty that prevailed relatlre to financial ar rangements. / Dr. Bowell has had sereral offers for Tommy Sandy's contract, but wQI not let th« bo; go until Walter . Miller arrive* from the east next week. Barney Schretber, fn relating how the Keene- Sain story originated, says that a friend of Keene's met him when he was at Lexington and asked him If he would sell Sain, and If he would name a price on the horse. Schrelber told the gentleman that be was willing to sail Sain If he could gat $100,000 for him. Permission was asked to submit it to Keene and Major Dalagerfleld. - This request was granted and aft erward . a representatlre of Keene came to see Schrelber and went with him to Woodlawn farm to Inspect the stallion. "The deal was not closed, nor- was It called off." says Schrelber. "and It Is in exactly the same status as when I was asked to name the price." i There. Is no doubt that an offer was made for the horse and that he was inspected by the negotiator. But there Is a lot of doubt about the authority of the friend of Keene. who has been disclaimed by those who would hare represented Keene bad such a purchase bean contemplated. Johnson & Dodsou's good mare Oolnmbla Girl has gone lame and it is feared that she will be on the shelf for a considerable time. undoubtedly be back next season. "With Reynolds, a sophomore, he should be at rear . rank unless freshman material or undergraduate material of better caliber, is developed. . "Henny" Fenton, the most popular and proficient man of the cardinal squad, is a law stu dent. He will probably return next September. Stanford will suffer no changes in the remainder of the team, as Vandervoort, the only other senior who made the first lineup, will return in .all probability : to take advanced work. Mitchell and Ganongf at five eights, are r both sophs. Holman and Owen, the two wings, are juniors, and in addition Cook and Reed, the subs for ;. these places, are sophomores and good men. Cadwalader and Brown, the two -fullbacks, are junior and freshman respectively.' Mayers,' the wing forward, and C. Pemberton are both good for another year. Stanford , should have back a veteran team of from 12 to 14 m»n as against a possible seven at California, as several substitutes on both teams will ably fill up the breeches. % The most appreciable Ibss to the car dinal will be that of Coach Jimmy Lanagan. who . retires .this year. The Stanford men feel certain that the Lanagan spirit will hold sway, how ever, ; for several years.

Smith Two tennis tournaments were com pleted on the courts yesterday. Mau rice McLoughlln, the coast champion, carried off the honors at the California club. ' while . Clarence Griffin and Fitz Guerin -were victorious at the park. The feature of the 'day's play was the final match of the handicap singles tournament at the California club. The contestants were Carl Gardner and Maurice McLoughlln. ; The coast cham pion managed to win after a bard five set match, but had an extremely close calL Gardner played great tennis in the first two sets and clearly outplayed the champion. McLoughlln then pulled himself together and in the last three sets played a fine uphill gam*. After taking two sets, Gardner real ized he had a great chance to lower the champion's colors and tried his hardest in each of the next three sets. He was right after the champion all the way, but was not equal to the occasion. In the early part of the match Gardner drove beautifully and passed McLough lln repeatedly at the net. After losing two sets McLoughlln knuckled down to hard work and turned the tables on his opponent. The score in his favor was 4-6. 3-6. 6-4. 6-3. 6-4. In the semifinals B. F. Xoursa took the first set from Gardner, but the lat ter won the next two easily. Xourss received a handicap of owe 4-6. The score in Gardner's favor was 6-8, 6-1, 6-2. : •V-'-'v The other semifinal, match went to McLoughlln by default Ex-Champion Melville Long for some reason did not put In an appearance until late in the afternoon, when the final match was nearing completion. Many spectators were on hand in - anticipation of the match, but were doomed to disappoint ment. Griffin and . Guerin won the final match in the handicap doubles from R. N. Whitney and Fred Adams at the park. The former had a lead of two sets from the preceding Sunday, which proved too much for their opponents to overcome. Whitney and Adams played much better tennis than on the day the match was begun. The third set, which had stood at 6-6. was played over and went to Whitney and Adams by a score of 6-2. Griffin and Guerin made a poor showing in this set and it looked . very much as if Whitney and Adams would . make a five set match of it. Griffin and Guerin. however, im proved In the next set and won It by a score of 6-4, giving them the match. The complete score was 6-4, 9-7, 2-6. 6-4. - Griffin and Guerin received a handicap of owe 15. .The annual academic championship tennis tournament will be held In the Golden Gate park courts next Saturday. Little interest : attaches to the event, because the outcome is a foregone con clusion. Coast Champion Maurice Me- Loughlin will represent Lowell high school in singles and he and Robert Strachan. the junior coast champion, will be that Institution's representative In doubles. Their presence precludes any possibility of a victory for any of the other high schools entered.

Edited toy R. A. Smyth Park Commissioners to Aid Athletes Will Provide a Dressing Room for 300 Competitors and Also a Fresh Water Plunge } By R. A. Smyth The park commissioners are planning to add to tha many attractions they hare provided for the youth of the city in the great public playground. Before the next athletic season is in full •wing they will have a fresh water plunge in proximity to the stadium and adjoining it an artistic building with dressing room accommodations for 300 athletes. The plunge could be made available today, but this Is not swimming weather, so the boys will have to wait until next season. Superintendent John McLaren, who has given so much thought to the boys, will convert an abandoned cement reservoir into the plunge. All it requires Is to hava the water la It- drained off and then be \u25a0riven a thorough cleaning. The reservoir Is on a little knoll op posite the shed at the speedway. At' the foot of this knoll and west of the north tunnel, which Is the entrance to the stadium, Is a sheltered nook la which the clubhouse will be erected In time to be available next spring. The ground la of irregular shape. The build ing will b« curved to follow the line of the roadway which leads Into the stad ium. John Elliott, the representative of the Olympic club on the board of governors Of tho Pacific Athletic association, "and Peter Mclntyre, the former trainer of the Olympic club and an authority on' athletics, went over the plans yester day with Superintendent Mci*ren. Tha building will be amply provided with shower baths and other . conveniences for the athletes. The plunge will be lesa than 60 feet away and will b« available for the boys after they have finished their training or competition. In discussing the many things which the commissioners have done for the athletes. Superintendent McLaren said yesterday: "Wo are amply repaid for all our trouble if the people will use the grounds after we have prepared them. If they trample a few flowers or wear out some of the turf we have no complaint to make, as such things can be replaced. VTe are anxious to have the horsemen, cyclers and ath letes decide where they want their races to finish. It Is not desirable to have these finishes at various points, as It Is difficult to handle the crowds. TVhen these finishes are selected we will provide fences and other arrange ments to keep spectators off the tracks and out of the way of those compet ing. "Whenever the pololsts are ready to play an exhibition game for the pub lic at the stadium If they will give us short notice I will see that they have a safe field of regulation size. The field Is planted with a combination of English rye and Kentucky bluegrasa and when this Is clipped It should ba all they could desire." The stadium, which Is the only one of Its kind In the world, is growing rapidly In popular favor. Big crowds gather each Sunday to see the speed way horses In action and to watch tha football and other games. Next season the field and tracks will be In such demand for competitive events' that the commissioners will probably have to pass upon formal requests for the use of the grounds so that there can be no conflict. The • grammar school athletes, who have been In the background for some time past, are expected to play an im portant part In the games to be held there. The athletic officials will de vote much thought to them next year and hundreds of them will be seen in competition. Germany's list of newspapers Is tha largest. One a Day— No More ED.
