Hogue, though absent in Australia, was re-elected one of the vice presidents, as he is still a sup- porter of the game in this State, and it is believed that he may return to San Fran- cisco at no distant date. John F.

W. Robetaille, of that club, was chosen a vice president of the associa- tion on account of his services to cricket who was formeriy | in his locality. The Burns Valley Cricket Club of Lake County has signified its intention of re- maining a member of the association, and there is lttle doubt that the Lakeport Cricket Club will do the same, though it has not.yet been heard from.' The Santa Cruz Cricket Club is desirous to pay a visit of -two or three days to this city during the coming season, and to receive a visit from teams representing each of the local clubs. It is probable the sched- ule committee, which will be appointed next Wednesday, will sét the.Decoration day holidays for the matches against the Santa Cruz visitors to. this city. ———— ' 0ld-Time Jockey Weighs Out.

The buyers are G. E. Silliman, G. H. Lo- gan, E. P. Cahill, D. Eastdale, E™Bavage and Thomas J. Maher. The first five of these chartered’ the sloop Fawn of the Vallejo Yachting and Boating Club last season. The yawl Spray is at present lying in the lagoon behind-Tiburon, but will be brought out when the drawbridge is raised on the 29th inst. She will be taken down to South San Francisco and will be moored off the Union Iron Works. It is probable that one at least of her owners will join the Corinthian Yacht Club. Frank Bartlett is without an in- terest in any boat, but it is not likely he will forego his favorite recreation when the season opens. William Nutz has sold the auxilary sloop Pride for carrying freight and will build a large launch, R The yawl Nereld of le Corinthian Yacht Club has been sold by W. Fisher to B. W. Schernstein o the California Yacht Club. The schooner Irancis has been sold by Vice-Commcdore Charles P. Doe, of the California Yacht Club, to Messrs. Willlams and Mead of the same ¢lub. Charles P. Doe still owns the schooner Challenge. Four new launches are lying at moor- ings off the San Francisco Yacht Club house, and thelr owners are seeking ad- mission as members of the club.

The teams, which are composed of four men each, are made ‘up -of the following experts: Olympic Club—J. J. Gleason, George James, Charles Sullivan and| James McElroy, with Henry Russ and W. Minahan substitutes. Occidental Club —J. Condon, T. Lydon, George Cunning- ham and H. Corey; Willlam Fisher and William Collins, substitutes. The games will all be played on the court of the Olymple Athletic Club. Four games will be played each Sunday, each man on one team meeting a member of the opposing team. The tournament will be continued from Sunday to Sunday un- | til each player has met the four members of the opposing team. The Occidental Club members at one time made a-specialty of handball. They had some of the best players on their rolls and their excellent court was seldom idle. Handball is still the favorite pas- time of the members, although they find time to play basketball, indoor baseball and other sports of the gymnasium. ————— Organize Baseball Clubs. SPOKANE, Wash,, March 6. — The Chronicle states to-day that two new baseball teams have been organized to enter the Pacific Northwest League. One | is at San Francisco and one at Los Ange- les. The propositions have been financed, the grounds secured and application made to enter the league. Whe the backers are is kept secret, but it is asserted these two teams will be admitted unless the Pa- cific Coast - League drops Portland and Seattle. There is a bare possibility that another team or two in California may be admitted, but this is not probable. —————ta———— . San Mateo County Hunt Meets.

On Thursday, begin- ning at 9:30 a. m., the opening round of match § over eighteen holes will be I held. At 2 p. m. on the same day the sec- Last Scheduled Games| of California League Played To-Morrow SSOCTATION foogallers will pla the last scheduled matches of the California League to-morrow on the ground at Webster street, Alameda. The Independents will meet the Vampires at 1 p. m. At 3 p. m. the Albion Lodge team will play the American-British R!- fies. It Is probable that A. Robinson and Henry Roberts will referce the matches. Special interest will attach ‘to ' both matches, for although the leaders in the league games are not matched against each other, the results are of the greatest importance to both the Vampires and the Rifles. If the Albidn Lodge team should beat the Rifles, as it did the Vampires last Sunday, and the Vampires should win their match against the Independents then the Vampires would be the winners of the pennant. If the Vanfpires should lose their match and the/ Rifles| should be winners, the Rifles would be the pre- mier team of the season. It is, however, thought probable that the Vampires and Rifles will beat their opponents and that the tle at pregent existing between these two léading thams will remain a tie. At present, each team has 11 points. though the Rifles have made more goals | during the season than the Vampires. According to the English practice a high- er number of goals decides a tie in points, but it has been decided, if a fie results, to play it off. In that case it is likely the match will be played on a ground in San Francisco and that a small admission fee wiii be charged. So many people now | tuke an interest in the assoclation foot- ba'l game and are familiar with the pila: ers of the leading teams shat it is prob- able 2 match between them would be well attended. - The Vampire team will life up in the following order: Beardmore, goalkeeper; Richardson and Harwood, backs; V. Hol- land, Mildred and J. H. Robertson, half- backs: land, outside left; Buchly, inside left; W. Jamieson, outside right, and Shotwell, in- side right, As is seen from the forego- ing list, G. 8. McCallum, captain of the Vampires; Petersen and James, the full- backs, and the Fay brothers are absent. The Independent eleven will be made up ot Foibes, goalkeeper; Lynch and Mech- els, fullbacks: Bowman, Melville and Armstrong, halfbacks, and five of the fol- {lowing as forwards: Owens (captain), J. Smith, Short, Watts, Riley and Allison. The Alblop Lodge team will line up in the following order; McPherson, goal- keeper; Grantham and T. Robertson, full- backs; Ewart, Taylor and Smith, half- backs; Hooker, McFarlane, Orton, Du- dauesne and Bradley, forwards. The rep- resentatives of the American-British Ri- fles will be Willlamson, captain and goa keeper; Forrest and Hqdge, fullbacks; Chambers, McKay and Bird, halfback: Leahy, Connolly, Shand, Churchill and Lyden, forwards.

Among the golfers from Southern Cali- | fornia who will take part are Walter Fairbanks, the present holder of the ama- teur champlonships of Southern California | and of the Pacific Coast; C. E. Maud, | the runner-up in two or three of the an- nual contests for the championship of | Southern California; C. E. Orr of Pasa- dena, winner of the southern champion- ship in 1901, and W. K.

The secretary and treasurer of the Pa- | cific Coast Golf Assoclation since its previous tournaments of the association have been largely under his management. This year, however, the arrangements for the annual championship contest were made by L. O. Kellogg, president, and J. | W. Byrne, past president of the San | Francisco Golf Club, after covrespond- | ence with C. E. Maud of the Riverside Golf Club, president of th® Pacific Coast Golf Assoclation. C. E. Maud suggested March 11 to 14 as the days for the tourna- | ment, and the others, after consultation with R. Gilman Brown of the San Ra- | fael Golf Club, adopted them. T.'P. Gower thereupon resigned the secretary- ship of the association. As a consequence the announcements of the competition and of the conditions of | play have not been made in ‘the usual | manner. It is understood the contest will be governed by the same rules as tho.g adoptéd for the tournament held in 19 on the Presidio links. A secretary pro tem. of the association has been found in | the person of J. F. Sartorl of the Los | Angeles Country Club, secretary of the Southern California Golf Association. His distance from the Presidio course and | the late date of entering on his dutles | combined to prevent him from taking an | active part In the preliminary arrange- | ments. On Friday afterncon, March 13, there being no play for the championship, the opportunity will be taken to hold a com- petition between teams of amateurs rep- resenting Northern and Southern Califor- | nia ggr the trophy presented by J. W. Byrf#®. The trophy was to have been played for at the Del Monte meet In Au- gust of last year, but the competition was not held on account of the small number of Southern California golfers present. The teams this year will consist | of four men each and the contest will be over eighteen holes, match play, under the rules of the Pacific Coast Golf Asso- clation. B | n “unds or better. | tion for passing a counterfeit half-doll: BERKELEYANS ALARMED AT THEIR NINE Baseball Team Is De- mioralized,Having Lost. Its Competent Coach YKELEY, March 5.—The recent poor work of the University of Ca fornia baseball nine has filled its supporters with alarm. Although there aue seven veterans in the team and pra ticc started famously at the beginning of the season the nine now seems paralyzed d unable to act Coach Peter Lohman has gone south on business and the Berkeley team !s with- out a head. That the members of the nine should follow the instructions of one of their number is hardly to be expectcd, especially where seven of the rine are old players and each has notions of his own concerning the game. A lack of spirit among the men has been noticeable. They have begun to pla listlessly and carelessly, and thelr sup vorters expect worse defeats than those already piled up against the California players. Work on the track is progressing as fa- vorably as the weather will permit. Re- cent rains have checked practice, but the track dries rapidly and the athletes are not hindered greatly in their work. When the storms are too prolonged the men continue their work on the gymmastum indoor track The members of the boat crews are hard at work and are getting in condition for coming regattas. Several matches will be rowed with boat ¢ s about the ay. In April a picked crew will go Seattle to row against the University Washington. ATHLETES AT STANFORD. Baseball Men Expect Good Practice in Games With League Team. ETANFORD UNIVERSITY, March 6 Last Saturday's defeat of th varsit rine by Clara College team was o fitting climax a week of the ragged ctice ever seen onm the varsity mond. Captain Brown was the chief offender, making three errors out of six ck He is one of the fast- est outfielders the cardinal has ever had but seems unable to adapt himself to in field piaying. The work of Cowden, Copp 2nd McGilvary was also a far poorer ar- ticle of ball than this trio is capable of putting up. While their fielding has been loose, most of the varsity players are hitting the ball well for so early in the season. The bat ting averages of the nine, computed from the four preliminary games, s fol lows: Cowden, .375; McGilvary, .267; Ball Lowenthal, .200; Parker, .182; Craw- 154; Knight, .143; Brown the Santa most pr: nces. The San Francisco league players will arrive in Palo Alto on Monday and will begin thelr work on the Stanford dia- mond. It is thought the three weeks practice with the professionals will aid the varsity men in taking a brace and putting up a faster and steadler game of ball. The rainy weather this week has inter- fered materially with hard work, both on the diamond and on the cinder path. Trainer Moulton has been able to put the track men through easy jogging only, owing to the soft condition of the track. The meet between the upper class men and under class men last Saturday de- veloped the fact that the Stanford team this year will contain a number of men who have never before gone against the State University athlefes. In the track events the ecardinal's strongest points will be the middle dis- tance. In the half-mile Smith, '03; Dunn, ‘04, and Crossman, "M, have done 52 sec- Dole, '05, and Hayward, '06, are also showing up well in this dis- tance. winerton, '04; Moran, '04, and Smith, won the places in the half- mile on Saturday and, while the time was not fast, these men promise to develop into speedy runners before the season is finished. Berkeley will have to enter a fast relay team in the intercollegiato meet if they expect to win the event. With the large number of fast quarter- mile men, Stanford should be able to turn out the fastest college relay team on the ceast. ———— Passes Counterfeit Coin.
