FOOTBALL ELEVENS OPEN WHAT PROMISES TO BENEDICTS WIN [RUSSELL RIDES A SNAPPY GAME Reilly Spoils Splendid Chance to Tie the Score. Safe Hits Evenly Divided, but Dudes Are More Fortunate. e bers Oakland 4, San Francisco 3. Cal Ewing’s much abused aggregation of cripples, as if to atone for the miserable farce which they enacted on Friday, took the measure of Uncle Henry's Germans yesterday to the music of four to three. The weather was dull and cloudy and the players, expecting rain at every moment, exerted themselves to their utmost in or- der to glve the 1ans at least their money’'s worth. Their efforts proved highly suc- cessful, for there was not a dull moment in the whole game, the end being in doubt until the last man was retired. Hodson, the twirler who is haunted by the spirit of hard luck, officiated in the box for the Dudes, while Iburg and Wha- Jen alternated for the Dutch. The pitch- ing was even up, each team getting nine 2 bumps, but the Dudes bunched theirs at the proper time. Uncle Hank can lay the blame for his defeat on Reilly. In the seventh, after two were out, Shay and Reilly were on the bases, when Nordyke sent out a clean double. Shay came home, but Dunleavy blocked Josh at third. Rellly instead of coming home ran out in the field and be- an an_eloquent discourse . with Rube wevy. Dunleavy got the ball, tagged him and the locals’ last and best chance to £core was gone. The Benedicts made tReir four runs in the second and sixth. In the second a pass and singles by Moskiman and Loh- man and a two-bagger by Arrellanes earned three tallies. In the sixth another was added by means of an error andy Drennan’s hit. The Germans made their three points in fifth and seventh. In the flRh Krug Reilly went the route, aided by a couple of good hits and a fumble by Hod- son. Their last chance was spoiled in the seventh by Reilly’s endeavor to make an orator of himself. The features of the game were No: dyke's hitting and Drennan's great one- hand catch against the center field fence. For Oakland Dr. Moskiman, Lohman and Arrellanes did the best stick work.

A number of the fans seemed to think that Dunteavy played “dirty” ball when he blocked Ieilly at third On the contrary he did a dever stunt, es it is always the baseman's tc ‘cover his base as long as ne does uch the runmer with his hands. Dun- y did not hold Reflly. Drepnan robbed Pabst of a Couble when he made his sensational one-hand catch in ths vecond inning Moskiman was played in the right garden, and he showed up strong, making two runs &nd as many hits. Dunieavy was on third base yesterday and p.ayed a fast game, accepting several chances without &n error. He should make an ex- cellent infielder. Nordvke bad his batting eye with him, and rapped out three clean hits, one a two-bagge: to_right fejd. < Brockhofl was put in to bat in Tburg’s place in the seventh, but fanned the alr three times. Cal Ewing would do well to keep Streib on the initial bag as he i undoubtedly the best man in the league When it comes t badly thrown balls. .2y Menciion Nordyke, Krug and Wilson aid the bulk of the locals’ batting yesterday. They made seven out of the nine hits secured by the Ger- mans. — Discuss Athletics at a Banquet. The third annual banquet of the Aca- demic Athletic League was held last night.

Amateyr Pilots Lynall to Victory in the Trot. B On the eve.of his departure for Austria, where he will join the colony of American riders now winning fame and dollars, “Chub” Russell made a *“‘Garrison finish' of it yesterday at Oakland. Through all around good work Russell landed first ut the wire on four winners, in Flamero, 3 to 5; Shellmount, 3 to 2; Vantine, 2 to 1, and Decoy, 9 to 5. His followers got all the coin. A good rater and strong finisher, **Chub” should more than hold his own on the other side. In the one harness event, trot, George W. Kingsbury carried off all “the honors. 'The popular hotel man held the ribbons over Lynall, 2:10, and, though an amateur, more than held his 'own with the professional drivers, winning the second, third and fourth heats through clever reinwork, While the weather was gloomy and threatening, racing has such a strong hol! on the affections of the public that both the grand stand and berting ring wecrs crowded. Betting on the trot was nervous and shifting, but on the running events it was heavy, with Flamero and Decoy the only successful favorites. At first the supposed knowing ones picked Puerto Rico to win the trotting lixture, but the brown gelding, although made a favorite, proved a disappointment. Ed Lafferty, behind Floradora, took the first heat, backed down to favoritism, with Lynall a good second, in 2:29. After this Kingsbury went out and won the next three heats in commanding fashion with Lynall, the victory being a popular one. Flamero Outclasses His Field. a spocial Cameron’s Flamero apparently out- classed the other starters in the seven furlong run, next to oe decided. The gelding’s friends accepted the 3 to 5 laid about him and cashed their tickets with- out ever having cause for worriment. El Mido bled slightly, losing the place to Lost Girl. At last Lief Prince earned a pair of brackets. One of six starters in the six furlong sprint following and 5 to 1, Hoar brought the colt home first, a length be- fore the favorite, Mamie Hildreth. Tullett, on Pegalong, finished third. Beyond question the 2-year-old handi- cap at five furlongs furnished the prettiest contest of the day. There were but four starters and the quarcet got away cn even terms to a flying start. Russcll rushed Shellmount to the front, and in the stretch was challenged by the favorite, Hainault, with McCarthy up, and the light weighted Flo Culver. Shellmount stood a long, hard drive, getting the ver- dict by a scant half lexgth, with Flo_Cui- ver only a head farther aw. Moze udiciously ridden, the ‘latter filly could ave won. Louwelsea is not at her best. Rollick, the Burns & Waterhouse entry, went to the post an_even money favorie for the fifth race. Cut off soon after the start, the gelding finished third. Vantine made all the running and, with little to spare, downed Mike Strauss a length. Owing to the slipping of McCarthy's saddle, David S ran away two miles be- fore he could be stopped and his tired rider assisted back to the paddock. A four and a half furfong dash for 2- year-olds saw Botany close a slight favor- ite over Quadra. Ransch, on Dawson, a 3 to 1 chance rode a splendid race and, outfinishing Howson on Wandering Boy, won by a neck., Botany, after cutting out the pace, ended up in the show. Looking best on paper, Decoy, the favorite, well handled by Russell, cap- tured the seventh and closing event, a mile and fifty yard affair. Toribio led for a time, when the first choice went ahead, scoring cleverly from Alicla and Lizella. Summary.

Jack Jeffries said to-night that any referce selected by the Twentieth Century Ciub would be acceptable to the champion.

Jack Jeffries, the referee, after cautioning West several times on account of his foul tacties, declared him the loser. “Sailor” Sullivan was given the decision overdFred Lord on a foul in the sixth round. —_—————— LATE SHIFPING INTELLIGENCE.

It opened yesterday at Belmont -\ with the game between the Stan- ford freshmen and the eleven-rep- resenting Belmont School, and at Berke- ley, where elevens representing the Aca- demic Athletic League faced one another on the gridiron field. The big elevens will line up for the first time next Saturday, when the University of California will meet the Reliance Ath- letic Club eleven on the Berkeley field, and Stanford University will oppose the Olympic Club players at Palo Alto. The teams will alternate in games every Sat- urday until November 9, when the big intercollegiate game befween Stanford and Berkeley will be decided. 'The Six- teenth and Folsom street grounds will again be the scene of the struggle. This will end the regular season, but it is ex- pected a game will be arranged for Thanksgiving day between the best of the California eleven and a team possibly from the East.

The two fastest trotters in' the world raced for a $20,000 purse offered by Thomas W. Law- son. The money which the 12,000 people paid to see the event all went to a well- known local charity. The weather was perfect, but the track was heavy, so no records were broken nor approached, the fastest time, that in the last heat, being only 2:07%. The race was disappointing to a large majority of the crowd and seemed to lead to the conclusion that The Abbot has not recovered from his sickness of last spring. The Abbot broke repeatedly and lost val- uable distance. In the first heat he went off his feet before reaching the first turn and was ten lengths behind at the finish. He managed to keep up in the second and, 10 the delight of the crowd, passed Cres- ceus at the half and won by a length. In the third, however, another break came right at the start and the Scannell horse barely saved his distance at the finish. Finally toe weights were resorted to, and while they apparently steadied The Ab- bot, at’ the same time they sapped his vitality, so that when the moment came for the supreme effort in the dash for the wire in the last heat exhausted nature rebelled and Cresceus won the heat ‘and race by several lengths, The Abbot Breaks Badly. It was early in the afternoon when tlhe two great trotters came out for their first trial. Ketcham won the toss, giv- ing Cresceus the pole. After scoring three times the word was finally given, and away they went with Cresceus in the lead. In the scoring The Abbot had acted badly, so that few were surprised when at the turn he suddenly went intg the air in a bad break. By hard work Geers got him back on his feet, but by this time Cresceus was far in the lehd, over a dozen lengths to the good. It looked ‘like a hcepeless race for The Abbot in that heat. At one time it seemed Cresceus might be able to shut out the Scannell horse. and win the big purse, then and there, but Geers managed to pull up a little and at the half was only ten lengths behind. This distance was still farther reduced by the time the three- quarter pole was passed, and at the turn into the stretch The Abbot was safe. Geers made no attempt to push his horse further, so Cresceus won the first lLeat by ten lengths, ‘The second heat proved most exciting. This time The Abbot kept his feet, but as usual Cresceus went out at the start and again led at the turn. At the quarter pole he was a length to the good and. in- creased this distance to two lengths at the three-eighths. Then Geers began to drive, and rapldly cut down the distance to a length, half a length, a quarter of length, until, just after the two swept by the halt-mile pole, The Abbot dashed ahead and for the first time took the lead and the pole. The crowd, which seemed to favor The Abbot, was frantic. Geers made the lead two lengths, and then three, and sO the flyers entered the stretch. Ketcham gave the big chestnut the severest punishment he had ever undergone at this point, and smarting under the stinging blows of the whip, Cresceus dashed after The Abbot. Geers touched his horse lightly with the whip cnce or twice and then only enough to keep Cresceus from winning. The Abbot finished first by half a length. ‘Horses Score Repeatedly. In the third neat The Abbot agaid acted badly, and the two horses scored five times before they got the word. Ketcham kept sending Cresceus out ahead, with the apparent intentfon of getting The Abbot off his feet. Me succeeded so well that when they finally got the word The Abbot broke right unjer the wire. In fact, the break came with the starter’s word, but too late for the horses to be recalled. Again_Cresceus sped out ahead and was around the turn before The Abbot had even started In the race. This time it seemed Ketcham had won his trick and had The Abbot fairly out. He drove Cresceus like the wind and was over fifty yards ahead at the half. But Geers ald not despalir. Ile once more sent The Ab- bot along and managed to get well with- in the distance fiag when Cresceus passed under the wire, a heat winner by nearly forty yards. Before the fourth heat was called two- ounce toe weights were put on The Ab- bot’s hoofs in order to steady him. Both drivers came to the conclusion that the track was too heavy near the pole, so the horses were started well up on the outside of the track. Ihey scoted twice. Then at the word Cresceus immediately went out in front and was three lengths to the good at the quarter pcle. For a few hundred ards 'he Abbot trailed along behind, Yot setors the half was reached he began to draw up and was only two lengths be- hind at that point. Fot by foot the Scan- neil horse pulled dowh Cresceus’ lead, un- til at the five-eighths pole the two were racing along on even terms, to the evident delight of the crowd. At the three-quar- ters The Abbot was in the lead, but could not %ke the _Fglu, which Cresceus kept to the finish. e brush around the turn killed The Abbot, and when at the begin- ning of the stretch Cresceus came up Geers found his horse exhausted. A perceptible groan went up from the crowd as the big chestnut dashed away from the struggling gelding, and it was a relief_to see rs finally pull up and al- low Cresceus to win the heat by a good six lengths.

GNLY ONE RUN SCORED IN SEVENTEEN-INNING GAME Boston and Chicago Play What Is Pronounced the Greatest Ball in History of the Game. NATIONAL LEAGUE. CHICAGO, Sept. 21.—Boston and Chicago to- day played one of the greatest, if not the greatest game in the history of the National League, Both pitchers did remarkable work and for thirteen of the seventeen innings were supported without a misplay, a great many of the chances on both sides being extremely difficult. The work of Long and Hickey was especially brilliant. Dexter scored the only run in the seventeenth, taking first on Long's fum- ble, second when Hickey was hit, third on a force out and home on Childs' fourth single. Attendance, 1800. Score: - R.

BERKELEY, Sept. 21.—The Berkeley High School athletes won the Bay Coynty Athletic League field day held this after- noon on the University of California cinder path. This is the first time the local school has gained a victory for sev- eral years and it was over its old rival, the Oakland High School, by the meager score of one point. The day was not one for record break- ing, although two were lowered. A driz- zling rain fell at the beginning and end of the meet, wetting athletes and spectators alike. In spite of the overcast sky a good crowd attended and remained until the close. The women gathered on the bleach- ers under the trees at the north and were protected from the worst of the weather. The track was poorly policed and spec- tators crowded the gval, shutting off the view of those on the bleachers and hinder- ing the athletes. During the fleld events the oval was packed. The Central and Polytechnic high schools and the Lick School of Mechanical Arts were In the “‘also ran” class, for the points they made were far below those of Oakland and Berkeley. The scores were as follows: Berkeley, §9; Oakland, 58; Lick, nic, §; Centraly 7. Oakland won the relay race, which aided its score materially by giving it ten points, as against Berkeley's (second) six oints. Stanley of Berkeley lowered the fty-yard dash record, hel! by Ligda of Oakland, from b 4-6 seconds to b 3-5 sec- onds, and the 100-yard dash record, held by the same person, from 10 3-5 to 10% seconds. Chaplin of Berkeley tied his own record of 18 3-5 seconds in the 120- yard hurdles, The events in detail were as follows: £0-yard dash—Staniey, B. H. §., firat; Hughes, O 45 second: Ching, B.

Academic Athletic League Games. BERKELEY, Sept. 2L.—Two games of the Academic Athletic League football series were played to-day. The Berkeley and Alameda High Scheol elevens met this morning on the university gridiron and played a one sided game, the second half closing with a score of 22 to 0 In favor of the former school. The Oaklag! High School team defeated Peralta by score of 16 to 0. Berkeley outwelghed and outplayed Ala- meda and in each of the fifteen-minute halves made two touchdowns and kicked one goal. Kearns and Mayo, right and left half respectively, for Berkeley, car- ried the ball through Alameda’s lne for | long gains on many cccasions and _did good work throughout the game. Baker, Alameda’s plucky little quarter, kept in the thick of the struggles and success- | fully tackled more opposing men than any one else in the game. The playing by both teams was fair.
