ANTA LUCIA, slated at 15 to 1 when the half-dozen four-year-olds and upward went to the post yes- terday for the first race over six furlongs, made the fleld look bil- jous, espectally the favorite Parmenion, ridden by O'Connor. Burlingame took Lucia out at the very start and at no time | was her light dimmed by favorite, second or third choice. Foul Play tried to tack on and succeeded as a wake performer. O'Connor lay in wait in the third place and came under the wire for the show money. Santa Lucia glided in in laugh- ing style some five lengths ahead of Foul Play, who barely captured the place. The track was good, pretty well dried out, but not fast emough for the hard- surface goers and not sufficiently heavy for the mud fancie Withal the first race was the only upset of the day, all the | others being annexed by the favorites. The two-year-old race, the second on the ard, belonged to Rory Ough, piloted by Flie Thorpe. Just because O'Connor rode J. V. Kirby, and something warm in the nature of a tip went round the ring, a heavy play was placed on Kirby. Zirl, rid- den by Dominick, figured as a chance win- ner until the stretch was reached, when | Rory Ough reared ahead and Zirl came in a slow second. Snooze proved her show mettle again, securing the third place. Kirby was fortunate in reaching the place just without the money. In the steeplechase Eva Moe, the favor- | ite, and Periwig ended in what was the most exciting finish of the day. They another throughout the course, taking the last obstacle together. Then_the race down the stretch began, E Moe winning by half a length, For a wonder Tom Sharkey staid with the ob- stacles and did not go out. He finished inside the money. The fourth race over one mile ended just as the bookmakers’ slates indicated. Havi- | land, with Dominick up, a 1 to 2 favorite, walked away from the field. The hot work was for the place and Bogus Bill, ridden by Thorpe, came up to_expectations, out- distancing Fondo and Lavator. In the fifth race Isaline, Henry up, was {2 hot favorite, but it was only the strong finish that gave her the race. Hermoso, piloted by Dominick, surprised the talent and all but won. Handicapper, second choice, with Burns up, took the show money. The last race, seven furlongs for three- year-olds, went to Seide, a 3 to 5 favorite, | and was Henry's second victory. The tip | was out for Benson Caldwell, who was | backed down from 2 to 1 to even money. | O’Connor made a_game finish, but Seide | was too strong. Cantinus led to the last | turn and then became lost in a pot of glue. 2 | TEACHERS WILL HOLD \ MAY DAY FESTIVAL | School Board Grants Permit to Ar- nuity Society—New Class in Douglass School. | \ The Public School Teachers’ Retirement Fund and Annuity Association was grant- | ed permission by the Board of Education yesterday. to hold a May Day festival this vear.

The following communication has been received from F. B. Westcott, husband of Lel Westcott, who has been named as co-respondent in_the suit for legal sep- aration brought by Mrs. Robert J. Han- cock: SAN FRANCISCO, March 12.—Editor Call— Dear Sir: 1 wish to say that in clew of all that has been reported in last evening's and this morning's papers regarding my wife, Mre. Westcott, that while she may have been indiscreet and imprudent previous to our re- union about one year ago, I do not, cannot and will not even think, or believe, that she has ever been, or could, 'or would bé gullty of anything more reprehensive. No, never! Her very nature would revolt against a sinful thought or act, and while we have lived apart for seven monihs or more, for the very reason that we have never been congenial, I yet have the highest respect for her as a virtuous woman, pure in mind and heart, and I defy uy]man . or woman to truthfully refute or eny it. The mother of my son Is a woman who in- spires and commands the respect of any and all who know her, and furthermore, in justice to Mrs. W. as well as myself, I also refute and deny that she has ever recelved any sup- port other than from me since she first be. came my wife. What I say here denies every charge or report derogatory to my wife that has a tinge of color. Very sincerely, F. B. WEST! TCOTT.

MEET GARDINER Substituted for Sullivan, Who Will Not Agreato ' Forfeit Terms. Harris Wires That He Will Arrange for a Subsequent Fistic Bat- tle With Frank Erne. i The match between Terry McGovern and Dave Sullivan, which was to be fought before the Twentieth Century Club of this city !n April, has been de- clired off. That does not mean that the “Terrible” Teddy will not appear in a local ring during April. He wiil be on | hand and opposed to him will be Oscar Gardiner, a feather-weight who once took Sullivan's measure and who was once laid | lm;; by the fierce onsiaughts of Terry him- | self. | . .The wires were kept hot last night with Tim Hurst, manager of Sullivan, on one | stde and Jim Kennedy, matchmaker of the local club, on the other, Hurst would Dot guarantee the $1000 forfeit for weight and the additional $1000 for appearance demanded by the Twentieth Century Club. It is thought that ihe reason for this is | that Sullivan knows that he could not reach the 126-pound limit set in the agree- ment. Negotiations by wire between Gardiner and Kennedy and Harris, McGovern's representative, were then conducted, the | result being a match between Gardiner | and McGovern for April 30 at 126 pounds. Gardiner will leave. for this city im- mediately. Harris has wired Jim Kennedy that he will negotiate for a match between Mc- Govern and Frank Erne upon his arrival in San Francisco. % MEDICOS CRUSHINGLY DEFEAT JOURNALISTS Health Department n.nd Morgue Basa- ball Players Score a Glorious Victory.

The Supervisors’ Finance Committee re- ported vesterday in favor of paying the back claims of certain years against the city out of the surplus fund. No recom- | mendation was made regarding the pay- ment of interest, that being left to the discretion of the board. It was further decided that the claims will be paid only on presentation of the original vouchers and the complete estab- lishment of their legality. This will in- clude a verification. It was practically agreed that 'a claim filed by ex-City Surveyor C. 8. Tilton for $8500 would be disallowed. This sum {s | claimed as a fee for making a map of | the Richmond District upon the order of | the Supervisors.
