AL The marksmen who assembled at Schuetzen Fark yesterday did the best average shooting seen in a long time at the bullseye competitions. Any of the riflemen who scored more than orne inch from a true center went without reward for the effort. Captain John E. Klein and Christian Meyer, two of the best known sharp- shooters on the coast, made a close race for bullseye honors in the California Schuetzen Club., The former made the excellent score of 313 points. He was followed by Meyer with 339. Frank Bertelsen of the cadet class of the California Club made the fine center of 108 points, thus placing himself ahead| of all competitors. There was a busy time among the mem- bers of the pistol annex of the same club. Much interest was centered in the Jacoby trophy. After a spirited contest it was won by George Tammeyer with a score of 48 rings out of a possible 5 in ten shots. In the monthly medal competi- tion William F. Blasse was high with 88 rings in 20 shots. Phe competition for the Adam Brehm trophy occupied the time of the San Fran- cisco Grutli Club members. Ore Imdorf was the lucky winner, making the best bullseye. The scores of the different par- ticipants follow: California Schuetzen Club monthly bullseye shooting: W. F.

George Baker Scores Initial Victory for the Cup in First Class. —— The class singles tennis tournament, commenced on the Golden Gate Park courts two weeks ago, was finished yes- terday. The honors were won by Georse Baker, in the first class; H. Russell, in the second class; Stewart Gayness, in the third class, and Melville Long, in ihe fourth class. It was an ideal day for temnis, and benches for spectators were at a premium. At least three out of every five spectators were forced to witness the matches stand- ing. As was expected, the final match of the first class proved the most Interesting of the tournament. It was a long drawn ou: abair, going the full five sets. Af.v winning the first two sets handily, George Baker, the ex-University of California player, lost the next two. He won the fifth and deciding one quite handily. Charles Dunlap, his opponent, was out- classed in the first two sets. At their completion he appeared to be hopelessly beaten. He took the third one by a nar- row margin. In the fourth his play im- proved as much as Baker’'s fell off. Dunlap tried hard In the last set, but Baker put more force into his strokes and won by his clever drives and accurate lobbing. The score was 6-2, 6-2, 6-8, 6-2. This is the first time the cup has been won and must be won three times In the second class H. Russell, an ex- champion of Michigan, after an absence of five years from the courts, had a com- paratively easy time carrying off the honors. In the final he beat Clarence Foley, after losing the first set, 9-7. The score was 7-9, 6-2, 6-4, 6-4. What was expected to prove the most interesting match of the class was some- what of a fallure. George Janes, who was considered , Russell’'s most dangerous op- ponent, injured his ankle In a practice game before the match and Russell dis- roged of him easily. In the other half of the semi-finals Foley beat Norman Am- brose 6-4, 6-2. In the third class Stewart Gayness.won for the third time. The class cup now be- longs to him. In the final he beat Fred Adams three straight sets, 6-2, 6-2, 6-4. His hardest match in the tournament was in the semi-finals, in which he had a narrow escape from defeat. After losing the first set, 7-5, to J. R. Lewis, he man- aged to get the next two by a narrow margin, both of them going to deuce. The score was , 8-6, 6-4. In the other semi- final match Adams beat L. D. Roberts 60, 6-1 The work of Lewis in the third class was a surprise.
