It was to the effect that if the Union Park Assoclation was torfous in the present litigation Ingle- e would not continue the operation of Mateo Coursing Park, but draw until such time as the old In- gleside Park could be operated.

CRICKETERS MAKING BEST OF THE END The California Cricket Club will not play out the matches scheduled on the programme of the Califoriia Cricket As- sociation.

This position is causing the most solicitude. Two big freshmen, Overall and Ramaur, who prefer to try for fullback but whose 190 pounds are needed more on the line, will probably be trained for these weak places. For preliminary practice games the work of the last four days has been re- markably snappy. The keen competition for the empty places on the team is pro- ductive of very hard playing. The football £quad, for the first time in the history of the college, has proved too large and unwieldy to coach. Nearly a hundred men have appeared for work. and now, after trying in vain to manage them single-handed, Coach Kelly has Instructed Captain Pringle to drop from his list all clearly second-rate players.

GOLFERS ARE SCARCE ON THE LOCAL LINKS Last Saturday a team match was begun on the Adams Point links by the mem- bers of the Oakland Golf Club. One of the two teams consisted of W. P. Johnson (captain), E. R. Folger, H. H. Smith, H. M. A. Miller and A. Higgins, and the other of F. 8. Stratton (captain), R. Hutch- inson, James Ames, George de Golia and H. C. Morris. The match was over eight- een holes and resulted fn a tie, which will be played off to-day. The captains of the two teams were appointed and they s lected their men alternately. Next Sat- urday, October 6, the qualifying round, over eighteen holes, medal piay, for the competition for the Captain’s cup, will be The eight members who make the lowest scores will be entitled to play in the third contest for the trophy, which wi presented to the club by Captain es Pierce, and is competed for twice a r. The contest will be over eighteen holes, medal play, and the winner will have his name, score, etc., inscribed on the cup, which' remains the property of the club. The San Francisco Golf Club has not vet issued its programme for the fall and winter, but will soon do so. The ladies of the club are preparing for a_continuous tournament to begin on October 6. The San Kafael Golf Club is in a quiescent condition just now, the summer visiiors having left the county seat of Marin, and the golfers not having settied down yet to their winter play. Ft is expected, how- ever, that a programme of events will be given out soon. The compet!tion for the open champ'on- ship of the United States will take place October 4 and § on the links of the Chi- cago Golf Club. It is expected that it will be the most briflant golfing contest ever held in this country or in the whole of | America. J. H. Taylor, the present open | (‘hnmé)lon of Great Britain, who holds the | record on many of the most famous Eng lish and Scotch links, will certainly y nd Harry Vardon, for several years ritish open champion and a keer rival | of Taylor, has expressed his intentlon c playing. It is probable that Travis, Har- riman, Douglas and several other fine amateurs will enter the contest. The tour- nament will be held under the -rules « the United States Golf Association. W. B. Thomas, president of the association, 's that a ctip or medal will be given to the amateur who makes the best medal score, As no amateur golfer has ever yet won first place or seems likely to do so it | has been thought well to offer this induce- ment to amateurs. If an amateur should win the open championship he would r ceive two hundred dollars, to be expended in the purchase of plate. Among the competitors will be Horace Rawlins, who has already won the championship; “Wil- | lie” Anderson, who lost it by only one stroke; Alexander Smith, who was see- ond in 1868, and is a brother of Walter | Smith, the professional of the San Rafael | Golf Club. All these players are well | known in California. As soon as the com- petition is over Horace Rawlins will set out for Califernia, he having been en- é?:led as instructor of the Oakland Golf ub. The annual meeting of the Los Angeles Country Club will be held at the club- house on Saturday, October 6, when a new board of directors will be elected. The nominating committee consists of W. G. Nevin, F. M. Lyon, Captain J. J. Meyler and W. E. Dunn. They will prepare the regular ticket. —————— Rainfer beer bottled here; awarded medal Paris Exposition for purity and quality.* | F, has | race for canoes and sloops for to-morrow. and is meeting with much hostile com- ment, but with only one ad coach sisted by two or three alumni, it has € deemed impossible to give any satisfa tory training to all candidate Therefore medlocrity must give wa = nto freshm: divided SPORTS OF THE TRACK, FIELD, GRIDIRON, WAVE, DIAMOND AND' on Saturda.
