It was an ideal day for rifle shooting at Shell Mound yesterday. Most of the time the light was good and there was but lit- tle wind to change the natural flight of bullets. As might be expected the at- tendance was good and a number of fine scores were made. Particular attention was paid to the Germania Schuetzen Club’s re-entry matches. In the Bushnell champlonship ten-shot match F. P. Schuster went to the head with 219 rings. Dr. L. O. Rodgers was top man in the three-shot re- match for cash prizes, making two 72-ring scores.

From the beginning of the new year un- il a few days ago golfing was rendered | almost impossible by the rain. On Tues- | day afternoon, however, four ladies com- | peted for the Winslow medal on the Pre- | sidio links. Miss Ella Wilcox Morgan win- | ning from scratch with a score of 161 | Miss M. B. Houghton, who won the com- | petition for the medal in December, also | played from scratch, and was second, with a score of 160. So small a field as | four for a handicap event, open only to ladies, seems to show that there is not much enthusiasm among the lady mem- bers of the San Francisco Golf Club, of whom there are seventy-five. But perhaps when the ffeather becomes more scttled, the afternflons lighter and the new_club- house, with its conveniences, is ready for use, more of the ladies will put thps selves in evidence on the links. Next Saturday, January 25, will be mixed foursomes, at g holes, match play, with handicayi® Dur- ing the last few days J. W. Byrne, H. D. Pillsbury and others have been out for practice. The directors of the Oakland Golf Club are preparing the details of a club tournament to be held at an early date, and certain improvements are being carried out on the course. The distance | to the first hole, which is now 200 yards, will be increased to 425 yards, and the dis- tance from the second to the third hole, which is at present 160 vards. will be lengthened to 500 yards. The distance be- tween the third and fourth holes, which ie now 237 yards, will be increased a lit- tle, and the nrproach rendered more dif- ficult; the hole will be on the top of a small knoll. The bogey score for hole No. 3 is given as two, but this Is scarcely cor- | | | o rect, as no player can be sure of driving his ball so accurately on to the putting green as to hole out on his second shot. shots and holes out in two more he is playing good, steady golf. The Oakland course, after the above mentioned alter- ations have been made, will be about 2300 )‘.'ltn_‘s, or 600 yards longer than at pres- ent. The Riverside Country Club will hold a tournament among {ts members next month, and in March will hold an open tournament. Club will hold an open tournament next month, which will doubtless attract golf- ers from Los Angeles, Pasadena, High- land Park and Riverside, if not from Francisco and Oakland. ———— RACING AT OAKLAND.

Twelve schools and their staffs of fifty teachers are known to be marked for the un- assigned list. It is a matter of wonder that some of | these did not go long ago, especially the Hearst Evening, which has twenty nupils | distributed among three teachers, and the | Mission Evening has twice as many chil- dren and only four teachers. In the John Swett and Fairmount a congestion of | educators and a minimum of pupils were | also found. In every school of the city there will | be a sweeping consolidation of classes, | and even where the school is not on the abolition list some of their classes are marked for discontinuance and the revo- | lution of economy goes yet further, for | even where neither school nor class has | lost its status teachers will go out, their work being carried on-by principals and Cover in Colors and Gold by Tojettl, the famous Italian Painter.

As for the pupils, they ! may all take the teachers’ examination, and so secure certificates just as soon, if | not soonmer, than if the school was con- | tinued. | Many of the principals have been slow | in the simple work of reporting on the conditions of their respective schools, and furnishing the requested data for reclassi- | fication.

Al- | ready about seventy-five teachers have | been slated for the unassigned list, and the positions of fully twenty-five more are trembling in the balance. Nor will the reforms strike only the | | classes. A number of well-paid employes | | of the department are now earning their | | last month’'s wages in that institution. | Said Director Holbrook yvesterda: : _ Leading e g Emue Opticians, domaln they will have to search with a | magnifying glass.
