He Is High lln of the Year in the | California Schuetzen Club. Schuetzen Park ranges presented an animated appearance yesterday, as the | crack rifiemen of the California Schuetzen Club were present in force to roll up a good score for the last month of the year. Al Gehret of the California Schueizen Club stands high man for the year with the best ten scores, thereby winning the Adam Brehm silver service. His scores are as follows: Two hundred and twenty-eight, 226, 226, 225, 222, 221 227, 220, 219, 218. Total 2 age of more than 22 possible 25. The highest 10-shot score of the year was won by O#to Bremer, with the ex- cellent score of 230 rings, being 23 out of a possible 25 rings. He was closely followed by A. Strecker. It was thought in the early part of the day Strecker would capture the prize, but he was unable te overcome the score made by Bremer, highest score of the year consist of a silver goblet presented by A. L. Ott and a gold medal from Philo Jacoby. There was a hard struggle between William F. Blasse and Martin Blasse for the honor of the second-class cham- pionship. Willilam Blasse had been 6. This is an aver- % rings out of a high all during the year and kept thel lead by a few points, but at yesterday’s contest Martin succeeded im passing him and carried off the class honors. The men who stand highest for bulls- eye scores o far during the year are Chris Meyer, 70 points; Max Kolander, 110; Louis Shierbach, 118; M. F. Blasse, 126; A. Rahwyler, 126; L. J. Reubpld, 13¢.

Reds Win the Game by Close Score of Three Goals to Two. S { | i A large “gallery” made up of society people and those frop the countryside saw the Burlingame Club men sporting the red colors defeat the whites in an interesting game yesterday by a score of three goals to two. The game was the first of the season played on the private field of Francis J. Carolan at Crossways Farm. The teams were | made up of the fnllo“ing players: Reds. Whites. T. A. Driscoll. C. Dunphy. F. 3. Carolan. W. MecCreery. 3. 0. Tobin Jr. E. W. Howard. L. McCreery R. M. Tobin. An accident to Walter McCreery after a minute of play in the fourth | period robbed the game of any further interest for the spectators. Mr. Mc- Creery wds driving the ball up toward the Red's goal at the westerly end of the field. One of the Reds struck the ball a sharp blow with his mallet. In- there was an involuntary cry of pain from Mr. McCreery and he seemed about to fall from his pony. The players galloped up and assisted him to dismount. After a short rest he gamely remounted and tried to play again. When he set his pony in motion he found his injuries were more severe than at first supposed. He dismounted and was assisted to the clubhouse ver- nda, and thence to his home. Cyril | Tobin took his place on the field and played out the period. . R. M. Tobin of the Whites scored the first goal of the game. Tom Driscoll tied the score almost immediately with a brilliant shot from a hard angle. F. J. Carolan sent the ball between the posts for a second goal for the Reds just before the close of the period. Walter McCreery worked the ball out of immage early in the second period and ran it down the field for a ith but little assistance. This made the score a tie again. The Reds had the ball around their opponents’ Tom Driscoll missed a goal by inches early in the third period and Walter McCreery stopped another from his mallet as it was about to roll between the posts. Driscoll scored the goal which won the match period. He first hit a goal post with the ball and then drove it between the posts. When the international match is played in the spring Walter S. Hobart may be in his accustomed place on the Burlingame team. Four ponies are being schooled by Heath, Mr. Hobart's man, down country. The DuVal brothers, the French polo- 3 are due this week. A noted South Tie Game at Idora Park. BERKELEY, Dec. 6.—The association football game at Idora Park this after- noon between the Hornets and the Oc- entals ended in a tie, each side scof- ing one point. The Occidentals scored 1t | seemed the Occidentals were going to but just before the end of the second half the Hornets by fierce playing managed to get the ball into the net, thus making matters even. The line-up of the teams was as | follows: | Hornets—Smith, outside right for- ward; Cowell, inside right forward; McKay, outside left forward; Taylor, inside left forward; Shand, center for- | ward; Bird, right half; Price, left half; | Chambers, center half; McGill, right | full; Mildred, left full; Williamson, goal.

Special Dispatch to The Call. . NEW YORK, Dec 6.—William C. Whitney leads the list of winning own- struck over the result of the ruling. He said he had been backing Adkins’ mounts and if there was anything do- ing he was not aware of it. Charlie McCafferty, with Jockey S. Bonner, arrived yesterday. This will be the last week of racing at OaKland for the present, as on next Monday the scene will be shifted to In- gleside.

An- other million or fmore has been dis- tributed among the remainder of the turfmen, about 400 in number. The leading trainers of the year as shown by the statistics are A. J.

B SEVENTEEN TEAMS START IN SIX-DAY BICYCLE RACE NEW YORK, Dec. 7.—At midnight to-night seventeen men, representing two-men teams, were started in a six- day international bicycle race in Madi- son Square Garden., Fifteen thousand persons saw the referee send the men off. The contestants can ride only twelve hours daily. They may relieve The ruling off the turf of Book- maker Jim Davis and Jockeys D. Hall, Ferrell and Adkins by the stewards of the California Jockey Club .was the one topic of conversation yesterday among horsemen. Of course there were many arguments both pro and comw) as to the justice of the rulings. Many who a few days ago were decrying the inanition displayed by the officlals at Oakland track and ap- parently wanted one-half the jockeys riding either lynched or transported, suddenly suffered a change of mind, and now think an injury has been done. However, this is an old story. A rider is an idel while he is putting winners over the plate, but when he strikes a losing gait his former wor- shipers forsake him as rats do a sink- ing ship. Money comes fast, in fact, altogether too fast to these young men, and they will not listen to the council of older and wiser men. Seemingly they prefer to associate with, leeches who care only to use as one sucks the juice of an orange and tosses away the peeling. BOOKMAKER DAVIS’ STORY. In his own behalf Bookmaker Jim Davis says he has not given a penny to a rider or any of \the parasites known as “agents” since the season opened. Neither does he feel that he took any liberties with Divina in his book on Saturday. He admits to be- ing $3000 winner, and states that Clarence Waterhouse and John Con- don of Chicago have an interest in his book.

SPORTS OF THE RACETRACK, THE RIFLE RANGE AND THE POLO FIELD VAMPIRES DEFEAT |LAUGHING WATER ALBION ROVERS A GTAKE WINNER Wearers of Red, Blue and White Fail to Score a Goal Losers Play Plucky Uphill Game Against a Stronger Team. Sl The Vampires and Albion Rovers played an interesting match for the championship of the California Asso- ciation Football League yesterday on the cricket grounds at Webster street, Alameda. Henry Roberts, secretary of the league, acted as referee. A few minutes after the bail had been put into play the Vampires scored a goal. A penalty kick awarded to the Albion Rovers did not result in a score. A little later the Vampire for- wards rushed the ball down the field and, John missing his kick, a second goal was scored by the Vampires. Soon after play had been resumed after the intermission the Vampires put the ball between the posts for the third time. Martin, the right back of the Vampires, jumped in the alr at one of the Albion forwards, and the referee awarded a penalty kick to the Albjons. Churchill took the kick, but the ball hit one of the posts and hounded back, while a second shot by Churchill went to one side of the goal. For the Albion Rovers John played a good defensive game, and- Bradley and Churchill on the wings did good service. For the Vampires Petersen played his usual strong game, hardly ever. failing to clear. Langdale and Harwood in the halfback line did excel- lent work, and Glarner assisted them well. The forwards worked hard, the right ~wing being noticeably stronger and more energetic than the left wing. The Thistles and the Vampires having won their matches yesterday, no change was made in the position of the two leading teams, the Thistles now having ten points and the Vam- pires nine to their credit. The teams occupled the following positions: Positions. ‘Goalkeeper . _Left back Vampire: irt .Outside left . .Inside left . ‘enter forward. .Inside right. -Outside righ Buchly. uchly it THISTLES WIN EASY VICTORY. Beat Pickwick Association Football Eleven Nine Goals to Nothing {Two of the matches of thé Associa- tion Football League yesterday were somewhat hollow affairs, the Thistles beating the Pickwicks 9 to 0 on the Presidio Athletic Grounds in the morn- ing, and the Vampires winning 3 goals to 0 against the Albion Rovers in the afternoon on the cricket ground at ‘Webster street, Alameda. In tl.e Thistle versus Pickwick match the ball was kicked off at 11 o’clock. In a few minutes Strang kicked the first goal for the Thistles. A little later a corner kick was landed right in front of the Pickwicks’ goal. Dun- can jumped in the air and headed the ball between the posts. T. Smith kick- ed the third goal for the Thistles, the Pickwick goalkeeper making a weak at- tempt to save. Lydon headed a fourth goal for the Thistles, and Smith put the ball between the posts for the fifth score. A hard, sharp shot by Taylor resulted in a sixth goal for the This- tles. Duncan, from a hot scrimmage in front of goal, kicked a fine goal, the seventh. Strang scored for the eighth time and Lydon, with a good shot along the ground, secured a ninth point. The Thistles were awarded a penalty kick for hands within the penalty line. Ly- don lifted the ball over the goalkeep- er's head, but it went above the bar. For the losers Gracie at center half and Cowan at center forward, played the best game, but they got little sup- port from their teammates. A. Robin- son was referee. The teams were made up: P Thistles—Lowe, Tierney, Forrest, Taylor, Durcan, McGregor. R. Disher, Strang, Lydon, A. Disher, T. Smith. Pickwicks—Cook, Bowden, Milne, Oakes, Gracle, Wardlaw, Sheddon, Warren, Cowan, Watters, T.

The second, third and foyrth classes were completed, but the first class was not quite finished. As was expected, Drummond MacGavin and ‘Will ‘Allen met in the finals. When time was called Allen had a lead of one set, but MacGavin was ahead on games in the fourth set. MacGavin won the first set, 6-2; Allen the sec- ond, 7-5, and the third, 6-3. In the fourth set MacGavin led at 4-2. The unexpected happened in the second class. George Janes was a strong favorite and many thought he would have little difficulty winning. Norman Ambrose proved too strong for him in the finals and won three sets out of four. A. H. Brabant, a re- cent arrival from New Zealand, won the third class handily from Harry Gabriel. In future the winner should play in the second class. The finals of the fourth class proved the closest match of the day and was won by C. S. Skaggs. The event of the day was the finals of the first class. Allen and Mac- Gavin were opposed to each other, but did not finish as good a match as was expected. MacGavin at times was bril- Hant, but played rather a careless game, especially when he was ahead. Allen played his usual careful game and scored mostly on his opponent’s outs or nets. MacGavan took the first set easily and had the second well in hand, leading at 4-2 and 5-4. Allen made a good stand and pulled it out, 7-5. He also won' the third set with little trouble. In the fourth set Mac- Gavin was playing his best and win- ning everything in sight when the The final Eastern Hound Outfoots Game Special at Ingleside. Hares Take Their Pursuers a Merry Chase Over the Field. ——— There was no stopping the hares yesterday at Ingleside Coursing Park. Hardly a greyhound was slipped that Wwas not run to a standstill. Only the hounds thatshad been trained for stam- ina had a chance of getting anywhere near the flying hares. Laughing Water, G. Lacy Crawford's St. Louis courser, won the stake, beat- ing Special in the deciding course with- out allowing him a point. The victory was a hard-earned one for the Eastern dog for, like others in the stake, she was forced to extend herseif in nearly every trial. Special had had more than his share of work and before the deciding course was ended showed the effects of hard trials. Rellef dogs were sent out early in the course, for it was apparent that Spe- clal, game as he was, could not score. The winner, too, was in a bad state and about all out. When the hare was dispatched it was found necessary to carry Special from the fleld and it is likely the game hound will succumb to the severe running.

ALAMEDA, Dec. 6.—In a football game yesterday at San Jose between the Alameda High School eleven and the team representing the University of the Pacific, neither side scored.

Batteries—O’Banion and Poultney; Zamloch and Sullivan. @ it @ match was called. These two players now have two uncompleted matches to play. In ene Allen leads and in the other MacGavin has the advantage. The semi-final match between Mac- Gavin and George Baker was the closest and most interesting of the day. MacGavin broke several strings in his racket during the second set and it almost cost him the match. In the third set Baker led at 6-5 and 40-15, but MacGavin pulled it out, 9-7. Pre- vious to this each had won a set quite easily. The other two matches in this class were won by Allen. He beat H. Russell and Charles Dunlap in the or- der named. In the second class both matches were interesting. In the semi-finals Stewart Gayness caused a surprise by almost beating Ambrose. Gayness had previously played in the third class and his excellent showing was unex- pected. The score was 6-2, 7-9, 8-6 in favor of Ambrose.’ In the finals Ambrose, after losing the first set, won the next three, the third being a love set. The score was 2-86, 6-4, 6-0, 6-4. In the third class Brabant was much too strong for young Gabriel. The latter became discouraged after losing the first two sets. Brabant has an ex- cellent style and has had considerable experience. The score in his favor was 6-2, 6-4, 6-3. The finals of the fourth class proved a five-set affair, the outcome of which was in doubt until the erd. Skaggs won the first set easily. "Lhe se¢ond and third went to Guerin and it seem- ed he would win. Skaggs won the fourth set and evened up the score. The fifth set was the closest and final- ly went to Skaggs after fourteen games had been played. The score was 6-3, 7-5, 4-6, 6-4, 3-6. On the California Club courts many practice matches were played. The best by far was a doubles between Joe Tobin and Will Taylor and Frank Mit- chell and Sidney Salisbury. Taylor at one time was the greatest player on the coast and held the championship for several years. He has played but little in the past few years, but has not gone back much. He and Tobin beat Mitchell and Salisbury easily. All three sets went to the ex-champions and the losers were able to get only three games in each.
