BERKELEY, March 9.—Again has the freshman-sophomore field day been post- | poned because of the rain. As four field | | days will have to be run off in three Sat- urd , there will be some doubling. On | Saturday, the 17th inst., the freshman- | sophomore and Affillated Colleges will | come together for the championship. | Those days will be gala days for ath- | letes, as baseball games will be played on | the same afternoon. For two weeks the | successful men in the triple meet will have an opportinnity to get in condition | for the University champldnship. On March 24 the cinder path will be turned over to the Academic League. With the cxception of an .oven 220-yard dash, the events will be entirely for high schools and preparatory academies. March 31, if the weather is propitious, ought to have letics at the State University Then the most likely ates for the team which to go East will come to- gether. Alr the records of a half | dozen ‘men give them first call on the | team. There are new men and men who, alihough they have never run here, have reputations for other colleges, who may | surprise even the most conservative. Events like the 220 and 440 yard dashes, with Drum and Cadogan and maybe a miles to see. The distance runs promise to bring out the keenest rivalry, as the men are about on a par in_their récords. Manager Decoto, upon whom the burden of the trip kast rests, has sent East for two vaulting poles and for a new patent- ed hammer. These Eastern apparatuses are said to be vastly superior to those used here s the men are to be given ance and advantage possible, new materials are being sought continu- ally. For a week the baseball team has not been mgether on account of the slushy diamond. As the batting and fleld- ing of the team was good, the rest may grove of great benefit to the men. The atting record of thls year's team Is far ahead of that of last vear. Saturday the big team will play the Santa Clara College team on the campus at 3:30 o'clock.

STANFORD_ UNIVERSITY, March 9.— Stanford's corps of athletes have been confined mostly to indoor work during the | past week. The track men were placed in | the gymnasium, where they wers given enough exercise to keep them in condition, as the excellent results of the handicap fleld day held yesterday shows. On a track soggy from the rains of the past | week the sprinters were able to make rec- | ords only the fraction of a second slower | than those of the last intercollegiate meet. Nourse, Stewart and McCaughern gave the most promise in the sprints, while Chadbourne, Baker, Smith and Ni- kirk were the leaders in the distances.

The opinion as to the wis- domof Manager Gildersieeve's appointment of Yost of Lafayette College seems to be The manager claims that the best that could be made from the material in the field, while Cap- Burnett is not satisfied that such Is the case. The latter mentions such men as McBride of Yale, Forbes and Rogers of Harvard, Outland and Overfleld of Penn sylvania, “Pop” Warner and Starbuck of Cornell and others who are equally well known who could be secured. With him are most of the football men and all the graduate coaches, with one exception. The objection to Yost is that he does not know the game as it is played by the big East- ern teams, and that he is practically un- known to the men of football rank. The matter is before the Associated Students where it is expected the differences will be adjusted without further trouble. —_—————— AROUNDTHE BOATHOUSES The directors of the Pacific Association of the Amateur Athletic Union will hold their March meeting next Friday, and the regatta committee will meet at an early day and discuss the prospects of the com- ing season.

There are also three junior outrigged skiff men—J. Timmons, 1. Halnan and C. Hague—who will give a good account of themselves. The Dolphin Boating Club’s junior barge crew for the season is composed of T. Dixon, E. Kragness, H. A. Swedlund and H. O'Hea, while the senior four are Alex W. Pape, George Baker, W. O. Patch and Dr. F. R. Axton or E. Kragness. Pape thinks he has gained a high enough repu tation as a sculler in the outrigged skiff and will row in the shell this year. George Baker is practicing in the skiff and will try hard to become the champion. ‘As Dr. C. C. Dennis is reported to intend to enter few competitions this year and Pape is going to take up shell rowing the way seems clear for Baker. The South End Rowing Club has not devoted much attention to rowing mat- ters this vear, but its senior barge crew will get to work soon and will endeavor to defeat the redoubtable Alameda *‘Spid- The crew is made up of Tom Lynch (bow), Gus Carson (No. 2), T. Lynch (No. 3) and George Bates (stroke). The junior barge crew of the Ariel Row- ing Club has been regularly organized and a second junior four will be made up. The intermediate barge crew has also been going out for practice. On McKenna's return to the city the senior barge crew will be got together. B. Brown, J. Smith at the Ala- The and M. Morris of Australia were recently | elected members. ‘At the regular monthly meeting of the Triton Swimming and Boating Club it was decided to move the clubhouse from its present situation to the foot of Larkin street, where there is ready access to deep Wwater. Some of the Tritons would like to see a race between George Baker of the Dolphins and Stanley Adderley, who won the junior outrigged skiff championship last year at the regatta at El Campo. —_———————— SWIMMERS AT SUTRO’S.

One Patent Medicine Which Has the Field to Itself. was recently are so many A prominent asked why it w “blood purifiers,” “nerve tonics” and medicines for every ill except one of the most common and annoying diseases, viz., piles. He replied there are two principal rea- sons: First, physicians and people in gen- eral have thought for years that the only permanent re for piles was a surgical operation, and that medicinal preparations were simply pollatives and not a cure for the trouble. Another reason s that piles, unlike v other diseases, is in no sense an im- aginary trouble. A sufferer from piles is very much aware of the fact and for this reason the few pile salves and ointments, etc., have been short lived because the pa- tient very soon discovered their worthless- ness. He continues: However, there is a new pile remedy which, judging from its pop- ularity and extent of its sale, will soon ake the place of all other treatment for piles. It has certainly made thousands ph merit, repeatedly tested, Has made it fa- mous among physicians and wherever in- troduced. The remedy is sold by drug- gists everywhere under the name of Pyra- mid Pile Cure. It is in convenient, suppository form, composed of harmless astringents and healing olls, gives immediate relief in all forms of piles and a radical cure without resort to the knife and without pain or interference with daily occupation. One strong recommendation for the rem- edy is that it contains no cocaine nor opium and is absolutely safe to use at any time. One of the suppositories is applled at night, is absorbed and the cure is natural and painless. It permanently cures itching, bleeding or protruding piles and is the only remedy except a_ dangerous surgical operation that will do so.
