Mac- Gavin in a Great Match EXCITEMENT RUNS HIGH Spectators Throng Courts and Cheer Wildly as the Game Waxes Interesting SR S A new tennis champion took his place vesterday at the head of the list of he racket wielders. Before the largest crowd sectators ever gathered on the C: Club courts, Percy Mur- dock of Alameda, the challenger, wrested the championship: from J. Drummond MacGavin, the holder of | the trophy and ti] for the past year. Murdock won decisively and on his merits, taking three sets out of four. iforn The spectators saw some good tennis, though both players were somewhat overcautious. This detracted from MacGavin's game, as he is spectacular when at est at driving and smash- ing. The match was closer than the| figures of the score indicat., as every point was stubbornly contested, many of the games seesawing from deuce to vantage and back again repeatediy be- fore either player could win. The spec- tators foilowed the play with great ia- | terest.

CHICAGO, June 19.—Highball is the king of three-year-olds. By winning the Ame:*an Derby yesterday the son of Ben rome clearly and decisively won the title. The Eastern cold demon- strated his superiority in a fashion long to be remembered. “Bud” May, who trained Highball, had almost to quarrel with W. M. Scheftel, the owner of the horse, before the New York millionaire would permit him to ship the son of Ben Strome to Chicago. Scheftel was so badly disap- pointed over the result of the Brooklyn Derby a week ago in New York that he at once declared the horse out of the race. May's advice finally prevailed and Highball was shiped West. The East will claim it is a distinct victory, but this will be combated by Western critics, who will point out the fact that Highball is a Western colt, having been bred by T. J. Carson at Dixonia stud in Kentucky. His trainer, J. B. May, is a Kentucky man and does all of his winter and early spring train- ing at Memphis. The horse has never raced anywhere but in the East, and being owned by a New Yorker, he will be claimed as an Eastern horse. Some of ‘the ho men will not admit that Highball is the best colt. Ben Phillips, who trained English Lad, said to-day: “I will run my colt against Highball within forty-eight or seventy-two hours. T would like to arrange a special match before Highball returns to New York just to see what they can do when there is nothing else in the race to bother them. Let them carry the same weights and race to-morrow or Tuesday at a mile ana a haif or a mile and a quarter, I don't care which. boys to ride and all other conditions to be what they were yes. terday. Then we will see a horse race. When the proposition was made.fn an unofficial way to “Bud” May, the trainer of Highball, he smiled and said he would ship his horses back East. ‘““Highball has some engagements on the Eastern tracks that are valuable, and we are anxious to return there,” May said. “It wouid not pay us to re- main in the West. I like it out here, being practically a Western man, and would like nothing better than the pleasure of seeing Highball defeat Eng- lish Lad once more, for he surely would do so. But even a side bét of $5000 or more would not temnt me.” . ST. LOUIS ENTRIES. ST.

RENO, June 19.—Reno defeated the New Century Wheelmen of San Fran- cisco to-day by nearly haif a mile in one of the most exciting relay races ever ridden in Reno. The fifty miles was covered by Reno in two hours, three minutes and two-fifths seconds. The San Francisco man crossed the tape about three minutes later. The race was witnessed by nearly two thou- sand people. In the third relay A. Wilkes of the New Century feil from his wheel. C. Knox of Reno, after gaining a lead of nearly a quarter of a mile as the re- sult of the accident, slowed down and waited for his opponent, both riders fin- ishing together. From this time until the finish of the fortieth mile the teams remained neck and neck, neither ap- parently being able to get a lead on its adversary. In the ninth relay Up- dike of Reno started the gap which from that time umu the finish grew wider. One of the sad fenure: of the day’'s race is the serious condition of Green- iger of the New Centurys. He is suf- fering from overexertion and is con- fined in a sanitarium. Three doctors are working over him and it is hoped his life may be saved. —_——— CYCLIST BURTON DOWNING SHARES HONORS WITH HURLEY Beats the American Amateur Cham- pion in a Sprint at Manhattan Beach Track. NEW YORK, June 19.—For the first time in the history of Manhattan Beach, Sunday cycling competitions were held to-day. Marcus Hurley of the New York Athletic Club and Bur- ton Downing of San Jose divided the honors in the amateursevents. In the mile handicap trial heat Hurley, who is the amateur champion, rode from scratch, and took the lead in the final lap. He held his advantage until within a few yards of the finish when Downing passed him, winning by half a wheel. Both cyclists rode from scratch. Hurley eventually obtained first prize by three parts of a length. Downing swerved badly in the final hundred yards and this may have cost him the race.

Members of the California Schuetzen | Club, Grutli Shooting Section and the Turner’s Schuetzen were all oc- cupied in an effort to outdo each other at the targets. M. F. Hartter of the California Schuetzen Club was high man of the day in the bullseye contest, with a score of 481 points. L. Wwille, the Tyrolean sharpshooter, surprised his new comrades by the ease with which he placed center shots. | He finished third. In the Turners’ competition H. Enge was high man with 201 and 204 rings to his credit. Captain F. Attinger was his ‘closest competitor, with 193. O. Imdorf of the Grutli Shooting Sec- | tion carried off first honors in the bullseye contest with a good center | shot. His nearest competitor was A. de Filippi. All California marksmen will be pleased to learn that Adolph Strecker of this city, who won the kingship at the last bundes festival, stands first with 70 rings on the honof target at the Fourth Bundes festival just con- cluded in New York. W. F. Blasse has 68 rings to his credit.

Score JEFE MAY POST FORFEIT T0-DAY Champion Is Expeeted to Put Up Money Guaranteeing His Appearanece in August POLLOCK SPEAKS MIND Munroe’s Manager Has Lot of Uncomplimentary Things to Say About Big Fellow I The final echoes of the sayings about | the heavy-weight championship fight are dying away, and within the next few days the gefieral public will haye | forgotten all about the big fellows. { It is expected the forfeits for the pro- | posed meeting in August will be posted to-day. At least they should be posted, and Harry Pollock says there will be no stage money in the transaction this | time. He is desirous of getting a glimpse at the hue of Jeffries’ coin and wants to see it in the hands of a repu~ | teble stakeholder, iike Harry Corbett. | _Pollock, in company with Mapager , | James Coffroth of the Yosemite Club, arrived last night from Harbin Springs. The trip to the stronghold of the cham- pion did not serve to increase the New | Yorker’'s admiration for the big feilow. He has all kinds of things to say about Jeff, and naturally they are chiefly un- complimentary. “1 spoke my mind rather freely to the champion,” said Pollock last night. “I think I had a license to do so, for I found him in bed looking as big as the side of a house and more hale and hearty than he has ever appeared be- fore. That sore knee? Oh, I forgot it. It's a joke. That knee is good enough for any champion to fight with, but | Jeffries does not like the game he's up against, and, of course, the sore knee complaint comes in quite handy under the circumstances. “If the forfeit is posted by Jeffries to-day I will take my miner away with | me to the East about the middle of the week, and if it is not posted we will | make our get-away on Tuesday morn- ing. There are many engagements in the East to occupy our attention at the present time. I do not see any use in hanging around these parts in quest of more champions—especially the kind who will not fight.” There is a growing impression that the apparent.apathy of the public to- ward the big fight is at the bottom of Jeffries’ sudden indisposition. He was fit to fight for the championship ten days ago, and if a big attendance had been in sight the fight would probably bave been decided by this time. ‘The rank and file of the men who fol- low boxing do not think for a moment that Jeffries is afraid of Munroe, or of any other man. The true inwardness of the affair is expected to develop shortly, —_——— SWIFT SLOOP JESSIE E. CAPTURES (CLASS A FLAG The Same Boat Carries Off “Owners” Cup” at Annual Regatta of Cali- fornia Yacht Club. The eleventh annual regatta of the California Yacht Club for class flags was held yesterday over a course esti- mated at 11% nautical miles, starting from the Oakland broad gauge mole. L. Rosenfeld's sloop Jessie E., sailed by John T. Carrier, with “Charlie” as crew, completed the course in an elapsed time of 2 hours 39 minutes 20 seconds, winning the flag in Class A, the other starters in the class being Robert Vincent's yawl Iola and C. E. Clark’s yawl Gypsie. The sloop Jessie E. also won the Owners’ Cup, which was sailed for at the same time and over the same course. The only yacht to start in Class C was the skipjack Pollywog, sailed by George Tyler, with a few sandbags for crew. She made good time until she reached Alcatraz Island, where a suc- cession of hard squalls struck her. The last capsized her. The yawls lola and Gypsie abandoned the race and rescued Tyler, the yawl Iola taking the Pollywog in tow. Tyler was taken aboard the Iola and made comfortable with a change of clothes and suitable restoratives. The regatta committee the race from 11:30 a. m. the preparatory flag at 11 ad fir- ing the starting gun at 12 noon. The yachts in Classes C, B and A were sent across the line together, crossing it in the following order: Yawl Gyvp- sie, sailed by C. E. Clark: sloop Jessie E., sailed by John T. Carrier; shipjack Pollywog, sailed by George Tyles; sloop Spray, sailed by R. L. Eames; yawl Idler, sailed by Comm George M. Shaw; yawl Iola, sailed by Robert Vincent: schoomer Frances, sailed by J. Williams. Jessie E. quickly secured a lead and constantly increased it, no other yacht complet- ing the course within the limit of four hours. The breeze was fair at start- ing and strengthened into a stiff wind. The race was under the management of the regatta committee, consisting of Vekander, James and Bowly. The starters in Class B were the flagship Idler and Jack Lendon's sloop .pr-y, but neither finished. —_———————— WIND MAKES BLUEROCK SHOOTING DIFFICULT Members of the Union Gun Club Con- test in Class Match at the Ingleside Traps.
