Bundy, who first came into promi
nence this year by sharing with T. W.
Hendrick the honor of winning the Pa
cific coast doubles championship, and
liter defeating the double? champions
of the west, south and- middle west,
went into the contest with a vigor that
disconcerted the veteran Wright.
In the first two sets tlie young Cali
fornL&a played., the former champion
;:lmo?t to a f&Ln&stlll, allowing him
l'ut three gramas In all and scoring 59
points to Wright's 40. He kept Wright
oh the defensive most of the time and
<iid not permit him to come up to the
B«t long enough to develop the strokes
which have made the Bostonian fa
mous.
In the third set, however, after
Bundy aJmost had the match clinched
by a s—l5 — l lead, Wright made a vigorous
rally, winning five singles, five straight
games and finally taking the set. B—6.8 — 6.
The last set was a stubborn contest.
e ach player putting up the best tennis
of which he was capable and each
showing masterly generalship. Each
was invincible on his own service until
'he games had reached deuce four
times. Then with a supreme effort the
westerner placed the ball repeatedly
out of Wright's reach and broke
through his service. The eighteenth
ea-me was Bundy's and with it the
match.

*ight matches he has played in the
present tournament. If he is able to
play tomorow in the form lie displayed

Irish-Americans May Be
Barred From Meet
Though the Olympic club is sched
uled to have a track and field meet
with the Pastime and Irish-American
athletic clubs next Sunday afternoon
at the Presidio athletic grounds, there
is a possibility that the latter club may
be disqualified by the Pacific athletic
associations registration committee at
its meeting today.
On July 4 the Irish-American club
handled some scheduled events at a
picnic in Fairfax park and neglected
to secure a proper sanction, though it
had been advertised' as under P. A..A
ear.ction. The new registration com
mittee of the association, which, is
i keeping a strict hand upon amateur
> sport, notified the club some weeks ago
that if -the Irisfi-Amerlcan club would
apply for the eanction in the proper
manner they would take no action
against the club. The club has not at
tended to this, so, according to the
members of the registration committee,
the club will be suspended today unless
its officials appear before the committee
at this meeting and straighten the mat-

Frayne Believes He Can
Come Back
Johnny Frayne will meet Jimmy Fit
ton in the main bout of the West Oak
land club's boxing Bhow this evening.
This will mark, the reopening of the
sport across the bay. Frayne and Fit
ten will box six rounds.
This contest is in the nature of a try
out for Frayne. who has been out of
the ring since his defeat at the hands
of Lew Powell. At that time the young
lightweight gave promise of develop
ing into a champion, but a severe at
tack of rheumatism put him out of the
running. Several months of light ex
ercise topped off with three 3 weeks'
training is said to have brought Frayne
back to his old time form.
Thers will be ' two other six round
bouts and three four round prelimi
naries. In the special event Frankie
Edwards will oppose his old rival Jim
Homer. while Willie ONeill, the clever
Australian lightweight, will go on with

THE " SAN"
KENTUCKIANS GIVE
BEDWELL THE HOOK
Application for Reinstatement Is
Denied and Permission to
Sell Stable Withheld
J. R. JEFFERY
CHICAGO, Aug. 24.— The Kentucky
state racing commission today reheard
the case of H. G. Bedwejl, ruled off be
cause of the drugged condition of his
horse, Xadzu. at Latonia July 4. After
Bedwell and his attorney had intro
duced affidavits from two detectives
supporting the Keil Williams- affidavit
previously submitted, and had re
iterated protestations of innocence, the
commission went into a discussion of
the case from all angles. Major F. A.
Daingerfield moved that the commis
sion affirm its former ruling. Tlie mo
tion received the unanimous vote of
the commission.
Through his attorney. Bedwell then
made application for permission to sell
his " horses with the sanction of the
commission and the J understanding
that they would be permitted to race
in other hands. In response, the com
mission pointed to rule 209, which
specifies .that all horses owned wholly
or in part by a person ruled off must
also be ruled off.
Bedwell says that he' will ship his
horses now' at l^atonia to California
and dispose of them there. He has
been quartered at a Cincinnati hotel
with his family ever since the ruling
was made against him.
It is now generally accepted that the
price paid by Ixtuis Winans to S. C.
Hildreth for Dalmatian was $40,000.
Boating May Be Major
Sport at Stanford
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Aug. 24.—
That, rowing will soon resume its for
mer ranking as a varsity sport seems
probable from the news given out by-
Stanford crew officials. A hard , fight
will be made to have it placed on the
HSt of the major sports. The return
of Karl L>. Schaupp, captain elect, has
started interest in rowing again and
It is expected that a larger number of
candidates will be out for the 'fall prac
tice than ever before.
The outlook for the varsity crew is
the - best In ' a long time. All of the
old men, included a number of veter
ans, will be on deck, with the'posslble
exception of three men, Huston, Gil
more and Ditterley, The list of as
pirants for the position of varsity cox
swain is large and will afford one of
the keenest struggles ever held here.
Two former varsity coxswains are here
and two other probable candidates will
also be on hand. Both. "Husky" Guer
rena and "Bobby" Roberts " have led
the- cardinal oarsmen to victory in for
mer contests- and "L.es" Ho^jvell and
"Larry" Marx have shown up well in
previous races. .
It is pretty definitely settled that the
next, race will be held" on the Oakland
estuary, the scene of many former con
tests. Captain Schaupp reports that a
liard fight will be made for eight oared
races over 'a longer course.

U. C. STUDENTS TO
GREET RUGBYITES
Veterans of Antipodes Tour Will
Be Welcomed Home by Host
of Collegians
\ BERKELEY, Aug. 24:— The Calif or
' nia members of the' All American
Rugby team, which has been touring
the antipodes during the summer, will |
receive a hearty welcome when they
arrive- at the Oakland mole at 5:37
o'clock Friday night.
According to the rally committee of ;
the university 1,000 or more Collegians
will meet the returning players at
the station and escort them back , to
the campus, where a monster informal
rally will be* held. The details of the
celebration have not yet been decided
on, but every student has been -- re
quested to go to the mole Friday
night. i -
Inasmuch as both Coach Schaeffer
and Assistant Coach Cerf are with the
All Americans nothing has been done
as yet toward 'organizing California's
gridiron forces. A football meeting
will be . held. Friday afternoon. but
until - the coaches arrive no attempt
will be made to begin practice. ...
The freshmen are scheduled to play
their first game September 3, one week
after the men first don their suits.
This game should prove. an interesting
exhibition, though not of Rugby.
The Australian trip' of. the All
, Americans will mean more for the
class of Rugby California will play
this year than any other one thing.
Eight •of the men who will in all
probability play for the university,
either as regular players or as substi
tutes, will come home from two
months of splendid training, after
having met flic clevereSt Rugby play
ers the world knows, and' in two cases
having bested them. The men are
keeping up their training while on
shipboard and will arrive Friday night
in first class condition.
In addition to the eight players who
have been training all summer in the
finer points of the game Coach Schaef
, fer. who coached th*. Americans on
their trip, and Assistant, Coach Cerf.
who played half, have both been-gath
erlng valuable pointers, to use, on the
; j Californians during the two months of
! training before tlie big game, which
comes on November 12.
Besides the actual new features of
the game which the men picked up in
Australia and New Zealand the fact
that eight of them have j been playing
as a team for that length of time
| should result in an esprit de- corps
• j which the coaches usually secure only
i after weeks of training.
The California players on the All
American .team who will play with
i California this year _are: Captain
. /Dwigglns. fullback; D. P. Hardy, B. A.
Swartz, C. A. Phleger. forwards; A. W.
Elliott and C. E. Allen, five-eighths;
1 E. L. Watts and L. M. Morris, three
• I quarters. Of these Swartz did not
j play on the team last year, but was a
; | wing forward the year before. Morris
; was a substitute In the big game last
• year and all the rest are. veterans,
men who played in tl*3 positions which
; they filled this summer.
Night Changed to Day
On Baseball Field
CHICAGO. Aug. 24.— Changing night
Into day was enacted last, night at the;
New American league baseball grounds
and proved a unique demonstration.
i- Electricians fairly • swarmed around
the park throughout; the evenirigT and
10 powerful lights representing 2,000.
000 candle power, were turned on with
the result that night became as day
under their powerful glare.
The full force of the lighting plant
was not turned on owing 1 to the in
completeness of the apparatus, only
half of the 20 lamps being in service.
The lamps are operated in pairs. Ten
of them are stationed on the roof of'
the new park, while a like number are
operated from the ground.
The first actual attempt to put the
lighting plant to practical use will be
made Thursday night, when the Chi
cago Lacrosse league will open its sea
son with tlve Illinois A. C. team. Should
the prove successful," the
first "baseball match will be played
Saturday night.

Jeff Goes Hunting and
Escapes Subpena
— LOS ANGELES. Aug. 24.— Jim Jeffries
went hunting in the mountains today
just in. time. to avoid a subpena which
was issued to appear a5- a witness in
court tomorrow and testify whether he
and Jack. Johnson had a. prize fight in
Reno July 4.
This is .the important- question in
the case ofthe picture show men who
were arres^flln Arcadia last week for
displaying the reproduction of. the con
test before an audience there. They
were charged with conspiracy against
public morals, and will be placed on
trial in Pasadena tomorrow.
The district attorney is determined
to* prosecute, but other lawyers are
none too sure of the soundness of the
case, believing the picture men might
dispute the allegation that the pictures
were the reproduction of a prize fight,
and present the films themselves as
evidence. To meet such a contingency,
the prosecutor planned to have Jeffries
appear as a star witness, but when the
deputy sheriff went out" to Burbank
to serve the summons he learned that
the former champion had gone hunting.

KING GEORGE PREPARES
TO GO DEER STACKING
Balmoral Castle to Be Made
More Attractive
Balmoral will, says M. A. P., become
much more of a palace than it was in
the last two reigns. In Queen Vic
toria's \u25a0-> time the atmosphere of Bal
moral was-akin to that of a large house
where domestic peace predominated.
In King Edward's time the mustiness
was removed to a large extent, but his
majesty was so little enamored of the
place that periodically the rumor went
abroad that he wished to dispose of it.
This will certainly not happen under
King George. Already, in anticipation
of his visit.the grounds and interior of
the castle are»being vigorously over
hauled.#and the king' is having inven
tories prepared with a view to further
embellishments arid improvements. The
attraction;, of course, is the. shooting.
Nowhere can the king obtain better
\ieer stalking, a sport of which he is
exceedingly fond. _ ?~^s
