It has two Junior barge crews, one of which is captained by Frank Baker and the other by F. A. Bergman. Much atten- tion is also being paid to swimming, scratch races being held among the members for the purpose of developing the swimmers. At the last meeting it was decided to hold a moonlight party at the club- house once a month during the winter, when the weather is favorable. The members and their friends will go out on the bay for a row and there will be dancing and refreshments in the club- house. It is expected a crew of police- men will be made up to pull under the colors of the South End Rowing Club. The leading spirits in this are D. Shee- han and R. McDowell. The agitation for the formation of a rowing association to govern the af- fairs of oarsmen independently of the Pacific Association of the Amateur Athletic Union seems likely to enlist the support of the Alameda and Dol- phin Boating clubs, while the South End and Arfel Rowing clubs will prob- ably stand by the Pacific Association, At its last meeting the South End Rowing Club selected E. Scully and J. P. Foley to serve with T. I. Fitzpatrick as its three representatives on the re- patta committee of the Pacific Asso- ciation PLEASURE CRAFT 60 . INTO QUIET LAGOON —e The curtain will fall to-morrow on the yachting drama of 1904 when the pleasure craft enter the lagoon behind Tiburon. The bridge will be raised | as soon after the arrival of the 11:30 | a. m. ferry-boat from San Francisco as the state of the. tide permits. As| the yacht owners have some misgiv- ings about the new Belvedere draw. bridge a considerable number of boats have been taken to winter quarters in Corte Madera Creek, while others will be laid up in Stone’s yard at North| Beach or’at South San Francisco. { Among the yachts that have already taken up moorings in Corte Madera Creek, or will soon do so, are the yawls Tramontana and Royal, with the sloops | Arfel, Sapho and Minnetonka of the | San Francisco Yacht Club; the sloops Speedwell, Meteor, Edna, Emma and Thelma, with the yawl Nereid of the! Corinthian Yacht Club. J. W. Pew's sloop Truant will lie at moorings in Belvedere Cove. The schooner Martha of the San Francisco Yacht Club, with | the schooner Lady Ada, the sloops Fresto, Freda, May and Genesta, will| be laid up in Stone's yard at North | Beach. The sloop Clara is on Swan- son’s ways at Tiburon and the sloops | Harpoon and Nixle will be hauled out at South San Francisco. Among the yachts that will go into the lagoon are the sloops Vixen, Cupid, Comet, Neptune, Espy amd Digcov- ery, with the yawls Seven Bells and Arcturus. The yawl Naiad will remain in commission during the winter, with headquarters at Sausalito. The sloops Challenger and Mistral will be laid up on the beach at Old Sausalito, off which place the yawl Ripple will be moored. The Curlew, with two or three other yachts, will spend the winter to the north of the Sausalito ferry slip. The fleet of the California Yacht Club will remain off the clubhouse in Oak- land Creek. A large number of Corinthians at- tended the Elks' jinks given last Sat- urday night in this city. A notable feature of the evening’s proceedings was the presentation by the Elks of a handsome horn-handled silver loving cup to the Corinthians. Commodore T. BCOSEVEL T G T GUARD +*- | o ! ,r GOAEP_ S o rnos sor " ¥ 1 I | ERS ! —_ EASTERN TENNIS EXPERTS INVITED TO PLAY HERE B e 4. The project of bringing several of the Eastern tennis experts to this | coast to play next month has not been | abandoned, although it is extremely doubtful if the men will come. Ex- Champion Bell spoke to the leading players while he was in the East and they seemed anxious to come. The Southern California players have been in communication “with the Eastern cracks for some time and if they get the proper financial support from the players in this city it is likely the na- tional champions will be seen in com- petition here. A San Francisco play- er received a letter from George ‘Wright during the week, in which he says the chances of any of the cracks visiting the coast this winter are slim. The California Club directors will hold a meeting on Tuesday night. The | chief business will be to discuss this | project. The players seem to favor having a joint tournament at the most | central point in the State. The visit- ows would probably play several exhi- bition matches on the California Club | courts. \ The three-time cups which the di- rectors of the California Club put up | a little over a year ago were disposed of last Sunday. George Janes and | Herbert Long have three consecutive | victories to their credit and the cups| are their property for all time. The game put up by Janes on Sun- | day was a surprise. He was easily the | best of the four and did some remark- | ably good work. Gardner did some | scientific lobbing, but was beat at the | net at critical times. Janes has im- proved wonderfully since he joined the California Club a few months ago. | Play will be resumed in the handi- | cap doubles tournament at the park | to-morrow. Seven teams have reach- ed the second round. The only first | round match yet to be played is that between C. Gardner and S. Gayness (scratch) and J. Baker and Davis (15 3-6). The following matches will be played in the second round: Hall and Sobey (15) vs. Janes and Long (owe 15); Guerin brothers (15) vs. Baker brothers (owe 15); Drolla and Mann | (3-6) vs. winner of Gardner and Gay- | ness (scratch) and Baker and Davis (15 3-6) match; Brabant and Finne- gan (scratch) vs. Long and Gabriel Jennings accepted it on behalf of the yachtsmen and stated that the cup will be used as a challenge trophy for the annual handicap race. 5 | commencea RICH STAKES FOR COURSERS High-Class List for the Grace Cup.
