I . THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, APRIL 26, 1896 / COLLEGE CRACKS SCORE. ALIKE, The Stanford and Berkeley Meet at the Olympic Grounds. ANOTHER BIG FIELD DAY A Wheeling Accident Keeps Palo Alto From Winping a Great Victory. THE EXCITING HURDLE RACE. What the Captains of the Two Teams Have to Say of the Day's Occurrences. The steady development of the Stanford athletes isshown by the comparative points scored in the intercollegiate field days up lFrsz'e:’s wheel and narrowly escaped striking the head of the cyclist, who was brushing off the track cinders from his nose. The race was won by Cushing, who de- feated another Berkeley rider by a few yards. This gave the U. C. team six points, which number they badly needed about that time. The consensus of opinion was that wheeling events should not be included in an intercollegiate athletic competition. The sprints were very exciting, owing to the close finishes and the excellent time made by the runners. The finish of the 220-yard hurdle race was one of the grand features of the day’s sports. There were three contestants, Rey- nolds and Dole of Stanford, and Torrey, the crack hurdler of Berkeley. Almost everybody expected to see Toxg rey show his opponents a clean pair of heels from start to finish, but such was not the case. The three sprinters broke very evenly off their marks at the crack of the gun and flew hike startled deer down the stretch which is nearest the grand stand. At the west turn Dole, who had been nursing a sore heel, struck a hurdle and came to grief, leaving Reynolds and Tor- rey to fight it out to a finish. The cham- pion hurdlers of the two colleges were traveling very fast, especially in the last 100 yards. The Berkeley boys yelled them- selves hoarse, shouting at Torrey to letout a link, but he was going at his finest, w‘ith Reynolds at his shoulder, and cutting down the cinders in rapid style. Now came the Stanford yell, which shook the old rafters of the grand stand, and Reynolds on bearing Captain Brown’s voice, forged an inch or so ahead, but Torrey had an extra spurt at the same time, which landed him a winner by about four inches. : It was a grand race, and considering that the sprinters had to make a sharp turn, which must have materially inter- fered with their stride, the time was ex- ceptionally fast. The three watches registered 26 seconds, which lowers the coast intercollegiate record by 13-5 seconds. Bremmer of Harvard holds the Ameri- can intercoliegiate record, 24 3-5 seconds, which he made last yearon a fast straight- way track. One of the surprises of the day was the grand performances oi Brunton, a Stan- ford freshman. He competed in the sprinting and jumping events and cap- tured many points. In the first heat of Pthe 100-yard dash he finished easily in 1014 seconds and, under favorable condi- tions, he could have done better than 10 2-5. A strong south wind was blowingon the ranners’ back from start to finish, which aided them very materially in making fast time. In the final dash of the 100 Colonel Edwards of Berkeley, who was one of the official timers, caught the winner in 10 seconds, but the watches held by Peter Mcintyre—the father of Pucific Coast ford), Holton (California), F. Wilkinson (Stan- ford), close up. 880-yard run—R. Carroll (California), 2 min- utes 9 1.5 seconds; E. J. Brown (California), E. W. SBmith (Stanford), J. Gist (California). The place men were all about five yards apart at the finish. Running high jump—C. 8. Dole (Stanford), 5 feet 64 inches; L. Miller (California), F. W. Koch (California), B. Bakewell (California), George Toombs (Stanford). Running broad jump—J. Brunton (Stanford), 20 feet 4 inches; George Toombs (Stanford), A. Dorn (California), ¥. W. Koch (California). Two-mile bicyele race: Firstheat—Craft(Cal- ifornia), 5 min. 44 1-5 sec., by & wheel; Rober (Stanford), Aufenger (Stanford). Aufenger set the pace and disposed of Roos (California); second heat—Cushing (California), 6 mi 1 1-5 sec. Frazier (Stanford), Seybolt (Stanford). Final heat—R. Cushing (Cali- fornia), 5 min. 43 sec.: G. Craft (Cali- fornia), N. Roper (Stanford). Frazier, on skirting the north turn on the ninth lap, struck & pedal sgainst the ground and was thrown violently, the winner managing to avoid the wreck and speed on. 16-pound shot-put—R. T. Wilbur (Stanford) 39 feet 91 inches, Robert Edgren (California) 39 feet 3 inches, R. Lloyd (California), C. Fickert (Stanford). 220-yard hurdle: First heat—Torrey (Cali- fornia), 27 3-5 seconds; Dole (Stanford); second heat—Reynolds (§tanford), 30 1-5 seconds on trot; Chestnut (California); final heat—H. B, Torrey (California), 26 seconds by half a yard, H. B. Reynolds (Stanford), C. 8. Dole (Stanford). It was the prettiest race of the day and broke both the coast and the inter- collegate records. Dole hurt himself on the third hurdle and limped painfully to the fin. 1sh for the point. 220-yard dash: First heat—Brunton (Stan- ford) won by two yards in 24 seconds, Dickie (California); second heat—Bernhard (Stan- tord) won also in 24 seconds, Chick (California), Colliver (Stanford); final heat— MGATY EOGREN Tossen Toie AmpeR | o> to date.

A cold and strong southwest wind was blowing during the games, causing the thinly-clad sprinters and jumpers to shiver and look blue. Even the spectators shuddered in the breeze and sought the most sheltered portions of the grandstand, from which points of vantage they watched witb keen interest the perform- ance of the well-trained athletes. Of course, Berkeley expected to win the day, but there are disappointments in outdoor athletics as well as in any other game,and the shrewdest of prognostica- tors are occasionally mistaken when call- ing the turn of an athletic contest. It was whispered around for some weeks prior t0o meeting that Captain Brown of the Stanford athletic team had his men in splendid condition, and that Berkeley would need to be careful when making predictions of what the result would be. Exceptinga few of the knowing ones who had a good line on the men who were entered for the great annual field-day trial all others interested in the game expected to see the wearers of the blue and gold re- tire crowned with victory. But the Stanford boys made a great bid for first place, and would ceriainly have defeated their opponents were it not for an unfortunate accident which happened to Frazier. When rounding a sharp turn at the east end of the track under full speed he came to grief. His pedal struck the ground and the rider was pitched sprawling on the cinders. Cushing of Berkeley, who was a few yards behind Frazier when the latter spilled, saw that it would be a matter of impossibility to ride around the upset wheel, and putting on an extra spurt, he shot his bike over T1 W48 JosT § TRwree— CHuy, J. P. Bernhard (Stanford), 231-5 seconds, J. Brunton (Stanford) very close up, Dickie (California) two yards behind. It was, with one exception, the fastest race for the distance ever run on the Olympic grounds and smashed the intercollegiate record. Ed Mays (Cali- fornia) once made the distance in 23 seconds in favorable weather, but had to beat the great Henderson to do it. 16-pound hammer throw—Robert Edgren (California), 134 feet 734 inches, with a ham- mer 4 oz. over weight, and 136 feet 5 inches with a hammer 7 oz. under weight; G. Hazzard (Stanford), 126 feet 4 inches; x. J. Wilbur (Stanford), 119 feet 11 inches, C. Fickert (Stan- ford), 119 feet 9 inches, A. Dorn (California). Up to the final event the score stood 53 to 51 in favor of Stanford, but it was expected that Edgren and Dorn would together win the first two places at least and secure the match, but when Wilbur beat Dorn’s best throw, there ‘was great surprise, as the score was then a tie. OAPTAIN TOOMBS' VIEWS, More Than He Expected, and Virtually a Stanford Vietory. After four years of hard and patient work in developing track athletics, Stanford has at last succeeded in proving to Berkeley that the cardinal can putin the field g team of track athletes second not even the invincible football end baseball teal that have been fostered at Palo Alto. Although we have known for some time that this field day would be a close contest, T had hardly thought that our team could tie timers—and Dr. Wood registered 10 2-5 sec., which times were nearest the mark. Young Brunton has a very promising future before him and wiil certainly lower many of the present sprinting records in next season’s competitions provided he does not grow careless and neglect to train when the opportunity permits. Had it not been for the strong cold wind that blew into the faces of the contesting pole-vaulters some extraordinary perform- ances would have been announced. As it was the coast intercollegiate record was lowered a few inches and the athlete who accomplished the neat trick of clear- ing 10 feet 2 inches remarked after the game that if the conditions had been favorable he would have scaled 10 feet 6 inches, which performance, by the way, is getting pretty well up into the sky. The great Robert Edgren of Berkeley did not do as well in the shot-putting and hammer-throwing evenis as his many friends had expected. Robert did not smash any records, but be talked very strong language to Wilbur, Stanford’s crack heavy-weight, who cap- tured the shot-put, and made maftters very interesting for his opponents in the ham- mer-throwing event. Wilbur informed Edgren that there were others who could talk occasionally, and who could box a little bit when the oc- casion called for a fistic matinee. But all this was child like and bland and quickly disappeared with the south breeze. The starting of the sprinting events by Leonard Gill of the Olympic Club reflected much credit on that official, and the refereeing of John Elliott was first class and gave general satisfaction. Following are the events, giving the names of the men in the order in which they finished—the figures for the winner following his name: One hundred and twenty-yard hurdle-race— H. B. Torrey (California), 16 1-5 seconds; B. Bakewell (California), C. 8. Dole (Stanford). H. B. Reynolds (Stanford) fell at the eighth hurdle while running strong and leading Tor- rey by a yard. Torrey’s time beat the coast intercollegiate record of 16 4-5 seconds, made by Hoffman and Dyer of California in 1894. 440-yard run—J. Brunten (Stanford), 53 sec- onds; F. Magee (Californis), J. Colliver (Stan- ford), C. Morse (California). The first three men were five yards apart at the finish. Mile run—D. E, Brown (Stanford) 4 minutes 47 seconds; E. W. Smith (Stanford), W. Jack- son (Californ: Brown finished in a trot twenty yards ahead of the others. Btanford man was ten yards shead of Jackson. Pole vault—R. Lloyd (Californis), 10 feet 214 inches; F. Mumma (Californie), 10 feet; C. 8. Dole (Stanford), failing on the 10-foot mark. 100-yard dash, first heat—Brunton (Stan- ford), 10}4 seconds by two yards; Dickie (Cali- fornia), Holbrook (Stanford); second heat— Bernhard (Stanford), 10 1-5 seconds, with two yards lead; Toombs (Stenford), Chick (Cali- forn! Final 100-yard dash—J. P. Bernhard (Stan- ford), 10 2-5 seconds, two feet ahead; J. Brun- ton (Stanford), W. Dickie (Californis) a foot behind Brunton. Mile walk—L.Merwin(California),by 10 yards in 8 minutes 22 4-5 seconds; H. H. Jack (Stan- " sty mmiE, 1% was 4 Ti— TosTLXE T FOOT-BAW. GAnes® thescore. 1 had confidently expected that Stanford would ecore at last 50 out of the 112 points. The most phenomenal work of the day was that done by Brunton and Bernhurd, our two sprinters. It was equal to exhibitions of sprinting that have seldom been seen in the East. Harry Reyrolds in the 220-yard hurdle was also fine, and if he had not fallen in the 120- yard hurdle the chances are that he would have made Torrey work hard for his honors, for he was a yard ahead when he fell, Dole, owing to his injured heel, did not do ‘what he is capable of in the pole vault by at least & foot, but he retrieved himself by win- ning the high jump. Jack, our new man, in the mile walk did well, and I think that Wilkinson should have been given third place in that event, for Holton clearly broke throughout the finish. Smith, a freshman, showed in the distance run that there 1sin him the making ofan athlete. The track events generally were excellent performances, while the field events were not up to what had been expected. But taking it all in all it was certainly the best field day ever held on this coast. The weather threatened to be bad, but turned out better than was expected, although the afternoon wes unusually chilly, and affected the men accordingly. It blew somef too, the wind favoring the finishes in the runs and the sprints, but greatly interfering with the field events. If Edgren had not contested Stanford would have had a victory. And this leads all Stan- ford people to feel as though it were our victory, for Edgren, according to the specific agreements entered into by Berkeley and Stanford con- cerning the scholastic requirements of partici- pants in the intercollegiate events, was cer- tainly not eligible to compete. By a technical- 1ty we could have kept him out of the contest, but we did not feel that it would have been in accordance with the true athletic spirit always displayed by Stanfora. ‘GEORGE ToOMBS, Captain Stanford Track Atnletic Team. CAPTAIN MERVIN ORITICAL. The Berkeley Leader Points to the Code of Athletic Decoram. The sprinting of Bernhard and Brunton was remarkable. Dickie and Chick did not do what was expected of them, although Dickie ran the better of the two. Hupp, as usual, did not show up, and we missed him, for he has been running in good form lately. I canmot say, however, that he could have beaten the two Stanford stars. In the 440-yard run Brunton again came to the front with Magee ranning hard for second. In this race asin the others that Stanford men |. won a very disagreesble element showed itself. Whatever be the condition under which & man wins his race he should at all times be a gen- tleman. There is a code of athletic decorum which shoula always be observed in a contest. Laughing and jeering at the man behind you is anything but good form. I am sorry.to have noted that it was done this intercollegiate meet. The 880-yard run was Won handily by Ca: rol in 2 min. 9 1-5 sec., but he has done con- siderably better in his trials, and must have had a few seconds at least up his sleeve. The mile run is associated with the man who won it, Dave Brown, the coast record holder. 1f anything be true of this Stantord man it is that he is & tricky runner, in the proper sense, however. The time, 4 min. 47 sec., is not fast for him, asona hot day and with otherwise favorable conditions he should cover the dis- tance in 4 min. 30 sec. Jackson, who came in third for California, while & runner of good form, isas yet a little too young and inexperienced to do his best work; there is in him the making of an excel- lent miler. The mile walk went 10 Merwin in slow time. He simply trailed his men until the last lap, waiting to win by his spurt on the finish. ‘The 120-yard hurdle was Certainly hard Juck for Stanford. If Reynolds had not fallen he would undoubtedly have got second place. As it was both first and second went to Berke- ley, Torrey winning and Bakewell coming in cond. The time, 16 1-5 seconds, breaks the previous coast intercollegiate record by 3-5 of a second, but does not equal Torrey’s best showing, for he tied the American intercollegiate record in & heat at the Mott Haven games last year. The 220-yard hurdle resulted in another new coast intercollegiate record being made by Torrey and a coast record as well. The splendid hurdling on Reynolds' part was a feature worthy of notice. Torrey’s time of 26 seconds under the unfavorable climatic con- ditions is equal to at least 25 seconds in the East under good conditions. The two-mile bicylce race was undoubtedly a surprise to Stanford, for we won both heats and the first and second places in the finals, | Heretotore Stanford has had the bicycle races 2ll her own way. Cushing and Crait, however, were more than a match for the men in red, and won the races easily. The pole vault was another surprise for Stan- ford, for Dole failed at & low height for him—10 feet. The wind of course was against all the vaulters,. Mumma veulted in remarkable form for him, as he has not been able to train 2t all this term. Dole retrieved himself by winning the high jump, at 5 feet 6}¢ inches. Koch, whose rec- ord is much above this, has not yet come up to his last years form, as, Miller of California also beat him. This event was another strug- gle in the teeth of the wind. The broad jumpgwent to Stanford, their freshman, Brunton, winning at 20 feet 4 inches,with Toombs, the Btanford captain, sec- ond, Dornof California third. Evidently both colleges are weak in this event. Edgren won the hammer throw as expected, but Wilbur of Stenford beat Dorn to the sur- prise of the California contingent. Dorn has tarown over 140 feet in practice, but is very erratic and was beaten by the whole Stanford entry. The shotput was captured by Wilbur, and that was expected. Edgren and Lloyd got the other places for California. The puts of all three men were far below their previous rec- ords, as each has put over 40 feet 6 inches at least. On the whole it wes a splendid exhibition of college athletics in spite of very adverse con- ditions. Stanford’s sprinting, as remarked before, ‘was phenomenal, as was also Torrey’s hur- dling, but we expected as much from him. The final score was a complete surprise to the California people, and the State University has now, to say the least, a worthy rival onthe coast. L, T.

An Energetic Young Minister Succeeds in Building Up a Good Con- gregation. On the east side of Howard street, be- tween Tenth and Eleventh, where for years was the home of ‘Nobby”’ Clarke in his palmiest days of Police Court activity, has been lately erected a new Lutheran Evangelical church, which is intended to meet the necessity of the Germanresidents in that section of the City. The denomination of this congregation is Protestant, but differs in some par- ticulars from the Episcopal or other re- formed sects in its government and form of service. It is the religion of the established church in Prussia and is known as the “Landeskirche” in that country. The present structure and its congregation is the second of its kind established in this City, St. John’s Lutheran Church on Mason street being the first and only one until the Rev. Yaul F. Branke arrived in this City from Los Angeles in 1894, Im- mediately after his arrival he started a congregation in Cambrian Hall on Mission street on the 13th of January, 1895, with nineteen families. From this nucleus the little flock increased to about seventy-five families, and from two little children which attended on the first Sunday that the congregation was started, the school now has 135 children who regularly attend. In addition, a ladies’ society wasformed with eleven members, which has grown to a membership of sixty-nine, who labor for the welfare of the church and the pros- perity of the congregation. From Cambrian Hall the little flock, headed by its energetic minister, moves farther west and_purchased the property lately owned by Mr. Clarke for 35080. Upon this a small but neat little church has been erected at an outlay of $2500. The house which stood upon thesite where the church now stands has been moved to the rear and fitted nup as a pastorate for the minis- ter and his pretty young German wife, who assists her reverend husband in in- structing the children in the language of their forefathers every Saturday atternoon. A class for this purpose has been recently organized at the request of the German gmuies residing in that portion of the ity. The dedicatory service will commence at 10:30 .o’clock_this forenoon. The pastor will officiate in this branch of the service, assisted by the Kev. J. Hosto, of Whit- more, Shasta County; Re Bt. John’s, in this City R Mount Eden, Alameda, and the Rev, A. Janke of Petaluma. The sermon in the morning will_be preached by the Rev. J. Hosto. At 3 o’clock in tis afternoon twelve children will be baptized, and in theevening short sermons will be preached by the Revs. Mr. Mangold, Mr, Endter and 1. Janke. Previous to the arrival of the Rev. Mr. Branke in this City he did successful mis- sionary work in the southern part of the State.” He organized two congregations in Los Angeles, one in Pomona and one in Ventura. He expects to be more success- ful in 8an Francisco, and is sanguine that he will have one of the iargest German congregations in California in the district where he now has located his $7500 church. —_—— Mrs. Lillie Devereux Blake su; international disputes be left to if the men ccnnol: settle them, sts that e women SIX OFFICERS RETIRED, Physical Debility the Ground of a Military Sen- sation. UNDER PARAGRAPH NO. 72. Surprise All Along the Line From Fort Point to Angel Island. All along the military line of San Fran- cisco harbor from the big 12-inch rifle on the Fort Point hill to the old smooth-bores on Angel Island there is a tremor of agitation—a premonition that something is going t> happen in the nature of a sen- sation. Not long since orders came from general headquarters at Washington, right along through regular army channels, that Colonel Grabam, Fifth Artillery, U, B. A., Presidio, and Colonel Shafter, First Infantry, U.S. A., Angel Island, should recommend, under paragraph 72, of the revised regulations officers of their re- spective regiments for retirement. Now, paragraph 72 is not designed to strike terror to the mind of the civilian, but to the commissioned officer of the army it sounds something like the knell of doom. When its provisions are invoked an officer may be retired on account of any physical disability which renders him in- capable of active service in the field. An officer may be in possession of the finest set of intellectual qualities in exist- ence. He may also occupy the most delightfal quarters ai the Presidio or Angel Island and evince an appreciation of his sur- roundings highly creditable to an artistic sense, but if he is incapable of standing exposure to the weather and the ordinary fatigue of an active campaign he may be shelved instantly, and be compelled to seek shelter away from the reservation. Colonel Graham, it is said, studied over his list of Fifth Artillery officers, and, counting this thing that he observed last year and something else reported this year, finally decided to recommend for retire- ment, under paragraph 72, Major John A. Darling, Major Sully McCrea and Captain John McClellan. Colonel Shafter, over at Angel Island, sized up his officers. He decided that Captain Pierce, Captain Parker and Lieu- tenant Connelly were not able to undergo the physical hardships of a severe cam- paign. This information is not official but it is said to be true mevertheless, and has caused a deal of gossip and comment be- cause its truth is not disputed. It should be explained that retirement under paragraph 72 implies no dis- credit to the officer retiring. His courage is not questioned—his conduct is not in- volved. The bravest man and the most perfect gentleman may be retired under this rule. In a semi-official observation the colonel may note that a good officer in the bar- racks has difficulty in mounting a horse, but he has no right to assume that terr- pin and sherry followed by Burgundy and roast hare had anything to do with the difticulty of getting into the saddle. All that the colonel is bound to consider un- der paragraph 72 is whether the officer could get there on time in proper military fashion and stay there. In the infantry Colonel Shafter is bound to consider whether an officer could march all day and retain the alertnessof body necessary for outpost duty all the night following, and then be able to fight on the ensuing day. Should the colonel in his judgment deciae that any officer would be unable to stand the strain it would be his duty to recommend retirement under paragraph 72 T e— Pearl Ladd Recital. A piano recital is to be given by Pearl Ladd, the child pianiste, at the Y. M. C. A. Audito- rium next Wednesday evening. Though but 12 years of age her playing is said to be very brilliant and fluent. Among the numbers that she will play are compositions by Mozart, Men- delssohn, Schubert, Chopin, Weber and Liszt. ANOTHER ELECTRIC ROAD, The Steam Rcad Running South of Golden Gate Park to Be Converted. Four Weeks Will See the Folsom- Street Electric Line jn Full Operation. By the time the summer traffic to the ocean beach and the Cliff House is at its height it is probable that the Parkand Ocean Beach Railroad, which now runs south of the park, from the western termi- nus of the Haight-street line to the beach, will be converted from a steam line to an electric road. The matter has been under consideration for some time, as the steam road, when operated, is claimed by the street railway people to have entailed a loss of $1500 a year, and an electric road can be operated much cheaper. The traffic on the road is & paying one, it is alleged, only on two days each week during the period of pleasant weather. Except on Saturdays and Sundays the road is little patronized. Just now great trouble is being expe- rienced by the shifting sands from the dunes through which the road runs for almost its entire length. In no previous year has this annoyance been so great. It requires a force of men to be constantly at work to keep the track in condition to atlow trains to pass over it. Since the operation of the Sutro electric line to the ocean the traffic on the Park and Ocean Beach line has been made still less remunerative, and for this reason it is expected that the work of converting it to an electric line will soon be undertaken, as this would be not only more economical in operation, but would give an improved service. 1t is not unlikely that tlie .improvement will be begun as soon as the work of build- ing the Folsom-street electric line from the ferry to Precita avenue, -near Twenty- ninth street, is completed. Material for this is now being hauled to the scene of operations. It was expected that the actual work would be commenced last Thursday, bui the stormy weather that prevailed during the latter days of last week prevented the carrying outof the lan. With the shape things are now in he Folsom-street road will be in operation at the end of four weeks, and with favora- ble conditions this time may even be shortened. - Alaska has four mountalns each over 10,000 feet in height.
