Such a dense crowd filled the betting ring (hat the ten book- makers laying odds were totally Inade- Quate to handle the coin that was jammed up in their faces.

The long chase after the flth 33000 prize | absorbed “all aitention and the . crown fretted like a high-strung racer erunch- ing on the bit until it was called—fourth on the card. His imoressive win of the two mile number earlier in the weex caused Locochee 1o issuc from his wig- wam, guided by Willie See, an even money favorite. The Bobby, with the rising ngm- weight, Dominick, on_his back, was vored next at 0dds of 5 Lo 2. with Bax ridden by Ruis, third in. demand. Marks and Norford were the colder ones. To be brief, Lotochee tomahawked the alefaces in'short otder. tart he breezed off the first mile ja , the two miles in 3:43%, three miics iu 51 and finished out Lwenty-iive lengths dhead of groggy The Bobby in T:23%, a most commendable perfermance. Bangur di@ not sulk, but found the distance too f.Ar The winner did not seem noticeab'v | distressed, for he at first kicked when the floral horseshoe was being placed over his neck. Locochee is owned and trained by “Boots” Durnell and was purchased only a short time ago from Green E. Morris for $600. “Whitehat” McCarty’s colors flashed Rfi" the wire first.in the opening sprint, rne by Matilda O, a 10 to 1 shot, piloted by Mounce. The mare was well played, and moving along from seventh position, beat Gold Beater two lengths. Compan- lon, the favorite, sent her regrets, after showing some early speed. At last, after several unsuccessful es- says, Flora Pomona left the maiden class in the two-year-old spin. A 2 to 5 chance, he led all the way, winning easily from tado and Barklyite. ‘..r D With Hagerdon . scratched from the | third, Alaria looked the most eligible, be- to 2 cholce. he mare | ing set up a 3 doesn’t look good, and overburdened with speed, ran fifth. Look- ing all over a winner, the 50 to 1 shot | Benroe was nabbed and downed a head by Satan; a 10 to 1 shot, with E. Matthews up. Alturas came from far back, finish- ing a close third. e fast ones met in .the fifth event, using some merry plunging.

Meehanus ran as if short, never serlously for after looking a possible winner in the stretch he quit, losing the show to Tame Irishman. Loving'Cup was pocketed on the stretch turn or she would have cer- tairly won. Frank McMahon's semi-annual winner | Stromo concluded the afternoon’s enter- | tainment by taking the last race, over one mile and a furlong, at odds of 15 and |20 to 1. _Always well up in the bunch, the big gelding stood a hard drive, defeating | Moreilito, the favdrite, g head.

The Fireman's Fund nine took another game from the University of California yesterday by a close score. The victorious team netted four runs to their opponent’s two. The game was played at the Rec- reation grounds and & small crowd watched the sport. Nourse pitched — a good game. He held the insurance men down to eight hits and did not allow a man to walk to first during the nine innings. He has good control of the ball, and with more practice should develop into a goed pitcher. Gardner played a great game at third. He had nine chances and took them all without ah error. Errors lost the game to the Berkeley students. They played ragged ball in the field at eritical mo- ments. Dr. Moskimanh offictated in the box for the Fireman's Fund aggregation and did creditable work. Follansbee at first also played a good game. Following is the score: FIREMAN'S FUND. Ar. R. BH. 8B.

ITH flags fiylng, the erowd buzezing In the grand ctand, the betting ring, the club- house and on the asphalt in- cline, the Ingleside racetrack reopened yesterday after a closing which lasted nearly two vears. The cvent of the day, the much postponed California Der- by, was Counted on to draw the racetracs frequenters and rightly so, for every train and car that reached the track before the third race had its full quota of track pac rons. When Winnle O'Connor, mounted on Fondo, passed under the wire la the first race a roar went out ffom a grand stand that was colored with premature spring bonnets and a motley array of winter and early summer clothes. Pat Dunne's vic- tory, for it is he who owns Fondo, scemel like the continued-in-our-next addendum to a serial story. T'wo years ago, when In- gleside closed its doors, the last raco that wus run on this track was won by Sur- vivor, the property of the same Pat Dunne. Keyod up 4o the prorer pitch'by an exciung uufin in the third race the crowd swept out of the ring into the stand and on ilie asphalt for tre California Der- vy, the une und a quarter mile race for Lifee-y bur-olds.

Thundering past ths stand: and around the first turn Articulate and Can- more fought for the lead. Joe Frey seemed to be in a pocket from which Sloan cotild not extricate him.

Then came tae finish. Sloan, O'Connor_and Burns drove hard, but it was clearly Joe Frey's race. clever riding won him the place on Bru- tal, Burhs getting the show. Burns did not cover himself with any particular kind of glory by Lis ride, allow- ing himself to be worked out in his at- tempt to catch Articulate on the first turn, The race over, J. Todhunter in smiling fashion received the applavse for his one and a quarter mile ffort on the winner and Johnny Schorr smiled as he thought of the $5000 added money which all went to his box in the safe. Now no one doubts that Joe Frey Is the best colt in California. The race was run in 2:07%. Then came the mile and a sixteenth spe- cial race between Tuthill and Advance Guard. Advance Guard carried 125 pounds, Tuthill 105. The great Advance Guard was ridden by Tommy Burns and Tuthill-was steered to defeat by _Sioan.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Match 16— The inter-department field day held here this morning was won by the students of the gealogy department. Law was second and physiology third. The time made in the sprints was slow on account of the poor condition of the track, but some promising athletes were discovered among the freshmen. Henley -sustained his academic reputation.as a crack all-around athlete by taking three firsts for the geology students. Hamilton of Pulo Alto, who won the 100-yard dash, and Lamb, winner in the 220-yard da&h, ate members of this department, and the efforts of these thres stars of the fresh- man class could not be overcome by the law students.

MAYOR PHELAN VETOES INGLESIDE ORDINANCE Says He Belleves the People Are Opposed to Unrestricted Racetrack Gambling. s P OSSR SRS SR “] pelieve the people are op rosed to unrestricted gamblingand I am satisfled that such gamblin g is a most serious evil. The com- munity cannot stand the exhausting drain of racing as it is now conducted, and, until we get legi slative relief, we had better hold the advantage we possess.”—Ex tract from Mayor Phelan’s veto message. — ERHAPS no official act. of Mayor | open Ingleside and confer on 1t the privileges Phelan caused greater discussion than the announcement made yes- terday afternoon at a late hour that he had vetoed the ordinance introduced by Supervisor Tobin legalizing bookmaking and pool selling on races for & period of thirty-six days each year at Ingleside track. One element of surprise was the secrecy maintained by the Mayor as to his inten- tions. While the measure was known as the Tobin ofdinance, it was generally con- sidered the Mayor's pet scheme. At a meeéting called at his request and over which he presided some months ago, he plainly espressed himself in favor of rae: ing for a limited season with pool selling privileges within the racetrack inclosure | thrown in. The introduction of an ordl. nance embodying these views followéd and reached the Mayor's hand in due course of time, Aftér having the matter under con- sideration for ten days, the limit dliowed him by law to approve or disapprove the ordinance, with but an hour and a haif of | the statutory time remaining, he trans- mitted two sealed messages to the Board of Supervisors. Clerk McKenna was on band to receive them and noted their fil- ing at 10:30 p. m. on Friday night. Later in the evening Mayor Phelan was ¢loseted with Princé Ponlatowski until a late hour, but gave no Inkling of his de- termination in the matter. As no news of the veto having been filed was obtaln- nh]; it was presumed that the Mayor had faifed to e: se his prerogative and that he allowed the ordinance to go into effect without his si Acting on this track was opened uj yesterday afternoon and racing and bookmaking went on. About 3 o'clock Ma Phelan :ele?honed to Chief of Police Suilivan announcing his veto of the racing ordinance and order- ing him to cl; Ingleside. The Chief im- mediately vhoned to Lieutenant An- derson, in charge of .the Mission station, and ordered him to at once proceed to the track and formaily notify Prince Ponid- towski that bookmaking on horse races would not be tolerated at the Ingleside track. The last race was about to be run and the Prince pleaded with the officer not to Interfere, as he claimed that considerable corffusion would result in case Anderson revented the race. Poniatowski was, owever, wiliing that several bookmakers should be arrested in order to make a test case. Lieutenant Anderson, desplte the specific order of the head of the Police Depart ment, contented himself with -arresting three bookmakers' clerks, violating the racetrack ordinance. They gave their names as Harry Gorman, Ed- ward Bert and W. H. Knill. Scarcely had they been booked at the City Prison when they were released on $50 cash bail each. nMayor Phelan remaineé awav from his office all day, but later gave out the fol- lowing as the text of his message: March 15, 190L To the Honorable the Board of Supervisors— 1 herewith return to you withont 31, providing for book- | | Gentlemen: my_ approval bhl No. making And poolselling on contests betwe.n horses or dogs Within the enclosures of rac tracks for a perfod of thirty-six days each year in_tkis city and county.

But because we are powerless to restrict the evil in adjacent counties whers our people mow have unlimited opportumities for the sport, there Is mo good reason why we should indorse it at home.

SUES THE STUDENT BODY. Former Manager of Stanford’s Track Team Demands Pay. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, March 18 C. M.
