S b ! The Olympic Club will shortly have one of the finest outdoor athletic flelds in the world at Halfmoon Bay.

Most of the Olympic Club r the new place. A proposition was { made by the rafiroad company to present a twenty-acre tract of land to the club | for a site on which to bulld the athletic | field, but Leader John G. Gleason and his followers strongly objected to this pla strong and rich enough to purchase a | tract of land for themselves and did not ‘need the mssistance of any outside cor- | poration. | " After a lively discussion it was decided refer the matter to another meeting fav | to | of the committee, but as most of the di-| | rectors seem in favor of purchasing the twenty-acre tract at Halfmoon Bay it looks as though the deal were about as | good as closed. |~ According to the present plans of the directo of the “winged O” more than $60,000 will be spent on the new fleld to make it the finest of its kind in the | world. There will be nothing lacking | when the new grounds are completed. There will be a track, an athletic oval, a | baseball diamond, a football gridiron and, |in fact, everything that goes to make up a modern athletic fleld. The committee in charge of the Christ- mas jinks under the auspices of the club announced that it had secured an abund- ance of talent and was practically ready to announce the programme of the big | social event for the members of the club | and their friends. A number of renowned | entertainers outside of the members of | the club will contribute to the pro- gramme. Rehearsals will begin shortly and a very successful entertainment is looked for.

SPOKANE, Nov. 27.—The use of | strychnine as a stimulant has been re- sorted to in the Spokane High School football team. Its use is admitted by Coach Smith, who justifies this course because it was prescribed and adminis- | tered by Dr. R. N. Tooker, the regular doctor of the high school team. In |view of the fact that the administer- | ing of any stimulants is strongly con- demned by most college and profes- sional coaches, the fagt that the use | of strychnine is approved by the man- |agers of the high school team has | caused lively comment to-day. “It is true strychnine was adminis- tered to Meyers, half-back of the team, |on the occasion of the Spokane-Lewis- |ton game in this cit sald Coach Smith to-day. “It wae given hypoder- mically by Dr. Tooker, the team's phy- sician.

Bountiful, a Son of Old Lucky Dog, Is a Surprise. Byronerdale Beaten by Schreiber’s Buchanan — BY FRED E. MULHOLLAND. The muddy going at Oakland yesterday had the talent guessing from the jump, | and upsets were frequent and expensive. The crowd cashed on but two favorites, | {Lurene and Gorgalette. Bountiful and { Laura F M were the longest priced win- | ner of the aftermoon. 1 Taking as a line her very tame show- ing in a race last Thursday, when quoted | | at short odds, it is not surprising the books laid 10 to 1 about Mazel in the opening scramble for two-vear-olds yes- ! terday. She was ridden by McBride, and 'laklng the lead early won by herself at the close. Prince Nap, the post favorite, came from the far rear, beating Frank Flittner for the place. No fault could be found with Lloyd Fountain's handling of Lurene, the 8 to 5 choice for the six and a half furlong selling number. He picked a good posi- tion with the mare, and moving into the | lead before the streach was reached, de- feated the 50 to1 shot, Swift Queen, half {a length. Barney Schrelber's Bertola | ran third, after a brlef stay out in front. Bountiful, a daughter of the gay old mud lark, Lucky Dog, annexed the six- furlong run, also decided under selling conditions. The mare seemed as fond of the sloppy footing as a colortd gambler is of a pure white stone, and nicely rid- den by Graham, came home three lengths before The Revrobate and Haven Run. The former was slipped around ‘as the real chocolate, but grew wobbly after cutting out the running. The ring laid 20 to 1 about the winner. Barney Schreiber's clever apprentice Schade stole the mile and a sixteenth selling fixture with his employer's light- welghted three-year-old Buchanan. By- ronerdale, the mount of “Big Bill"” Knapp, with 105 pounds to negotiate, looked as appetizing as a Kosher sausage, ana every seven out of ten unloaded right there at odds of 7 to 10. While Knapp was dreaming, softly dreaming, in second position with the favorite, Schade opened up such a gap of daylight with Buchanan that Byronerdale fell short at the finish by more than two lengths. The show went to Bannock Belle, a 15 to 1 shot. There was no mistake about Laura F M. being ready yesterday. The bush con- tingent was out with bells on and spon | gobbled up all the 10 to 1 in sight. The form players unloaded on "Ed Lilburn, forcing the Magrane horse's odds down to 9 to 10. Eplicure appeared uncertain about his underpinning and the price lengthened to 2%%. Laura F M falrly reveled in the mud and made a spreadeagle affair of it, downing the favorite in a great big can- ter. Jack Keene's Mafalda finished an ordinary third at 15 to 1. o After a good deal of see-sawing Gorga- lette, with McBride up, went to the post favorite for the closing mile run. There was no pace to speak of during the race, and after Angleta had blown up McBride assumed the leading position with his mount. The chestnut mare held Ink safe at the end, winning by a length. Davis was third with St. George Jr. NOTES OF THE TRACK. McBride and Lloyd Fountain rode in good form, each piloting two winners. Frank Graham rode his first winner of the meeting when he landed Bounti- ful. He is due to get a move on now. Treubel, who piloted a number ‘of winners at Oakland last spring, is here again. He will be able to do 105 pounds in the saddle. Bookmaker Joe Rose mixed with the crowd in the ring yesterday. Joe had & very successful season East and will cut in at Oakland to-morrow. Twelve yearlings owned by Tommy Griffin reached Ingleside yesterday from the East. J. Ransch passed through San Fran- cigco Sunday on his way to Bakersfield, his home. Ransch rides®for the Van- derbilt stable in France and will return there next year. Frank M. Kelly, «trainer for Dr. J. Grant Lyman, and an owner as well himself, was a visitor at Oakland yes- terday. Dr. Lyman’s horses are entered in stakes both at Ascot Park and here. The feature of the racing on Thurs- day will be the Thanksgiving handicap over a mile and an eighth, with $2000 in added money.

SR s Y AL BANGS CONDEMNS FOOTBALL. Columbia Professor Terms It a “Brutal * and Abomimable Game.” NEW YORK, Nov. 27.—Francis S. Bangs, chalrman of the Columbla Uni- versity committee on athletics, to-day pronounced football as played under the present rules and methods “a bru- tal and abominable game,” and sald that if he had his way it would be pro- hibited. Speaking of the rules com- mittee appointed a number of years ago by the now defunct University Athletic Club, Mr. Bangs said its mem- bers “are irresponsible, impervious to public opinion and culpable in thelr disregard of the increasing danger of the game as they have made it.” He declared that they had done nothing to better conditions agd that he did not think the revision of the rules could be entrusted to them now with any confildence. Of a proposition made some months ago to refer the question of stopping football to the athletic as- soclations of the varfous wniversities, Mr. Bangs said: “You might as well trust the cook- ing of a steak to a cage full of Moms." President Butler said that he was not yet ready to make a statement for publication, but that the views of Mr. Bangs appeared to him to be entirely sound. The University Council several years ago authorized the president to appoint a university committee on stu- dent organizations, athletic and other- wise, which in any way represent the university before the public. It is in the power of this committee to take whatever action on the question which seems to them wise. It was said to-day at Columbia, ap- parently on good authority, that Presi- dent Butler has only awaited the end of the football season before calling | this committee together and urging/ them peremptorily to forbid the fur- ther participation of Columbla students E:‘ present. KEARNEY WAXES WARM ON WITNESS STAND Issue of Veracity Between Him and Witnesses Is B&iw- Dr. Peter A. Kearney, who is suing Mrs. Theresa Bell for $25,000 for med- fcal services he alleges he performed at her request, waxed exceedingly warm yesterday under the imputation that he had told certain persons that the family plate of the Bell household, now in his possession, was simply held by him as a trustee and was not ac- cepted in part payment of the large fee he 'demands. “Whoever said that I said that ut- tered a notorious lie,” declared the doc- tor Indignantly, from his position on the witness stand. Your language is improper,” inter- rupted Judge Hunt sternly. “It lsmnot for you to say who are llars and who are not, but for the jury to decide. Any further indulgence in such language will lay you open to a heavy fine.” Dr. Kearney subsided. The issue of veracity was then clear- ly drawn between Dr. Kearney and Mr. and Mrs. L. M. Sherwood, at whose home the late Mammy Pleasant died. Both Mr. and Mrs. Sherwood testified that Dr. Bell called at their home to view Mammy’s body and that while there he said: “Strange has been this woman's life and her connection with the Bell house- hold. I fear that Mrs. Bell is losing her mind and that it will not be long before she will require the attention of ! a guardian. She has reached that state | where she 1s selling all of her keep- sakes and household effects. I have in my home under lock and key a large quantity of silverware which I have taken simply for the purpose of pre- venting Mrs. Bell from making away with it.” Mrs. Bell steadfastly denies that she gave the plate to Dr. Kearney in part payment of his fee, but asserts that she simply gave it to him, as Mr. and Mrs. Sherwood tertified he admitted to them EDITED BY R.
