THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, JANUARY FIGHT CLUB IS ON THE RACK 1906, FAVORITES ARE BEATEN; RING Dr. Gardner From Schreiber’s String Ties Record. —_— Montana Peeress and Ebel Thatcher Are Surprises. o Y BY FRED E. MULHOLLAND. The matinee benefit for the poor book- | makers at Oakland track yesterday was ite being securely sealed up. It proved a singularly disastrous after- noon for public choices, Barney Schrei- ber’s Dr. Gardner being the one favorite In decamping with the concluding seven furlong number, the Bannockburn three-vear-old equaled the winning away off from Gateway and Sir Brillar. If the bookies did not get out, or at least recuperate, it was their own fault. Some heavily supported horses were back them. Esherin at 9, Montana Peeress (at 40 to 1, and Ebel Thatcher, a 60 to 1 &hot, were a few of the offerings. RADTKE LANDS VIOLA B. Viola B, the Oakland stable representa- | tive, with Radtke on her back, captured the kindergarten event at odds of 5 to 1. The filly opened favorite, but her peculiar way of warming up fooled the smart ones, which caused the slump in her price. Tripping along straight and true she downed Harry Stover's Pimkin three lengths. Peerless Lass ran third. With a number of bad actors to contend with at the post in the mile and a six- teenth selling event, Jake Holtman final- ly overlooked the favorite DixiesLad and Coalinga, an outsider, both being left. Wizard McBride trailed along then with Esherin, 4 9 to 1 shot, and when Water- cure wilted, landed the outsider a clever winner over Ed Sheridan. Frank Woods failed to show any speed. For a 2 to 1 favorite Crigli assuredly did run a superb race in the first mile selling race. The mare bluffed along in second or third position to the bend for home and then went to sleep. Alert and watchful as in the days when a bright career was prophesied for him, Crosswaite | hustled the 40 to 1 shot Montana Peeress out in front and keeping her there to the close, beat Sun Rose out a head. Eleven Bells lost the show to Birdie P. THE LIEUTENANT A WINNER. Charley Henshall’'s Pronta opened one of the favorites for the second mile run, but it was all a mistake. The mare's wardrobe was delayed by a washout and her real debut will occur later in the sea- son. Backed from 6 down to 4, The Lieutenant led from start to finish, breast- ing the tape an easy winner, nearly two lengths before the favorite, Christine A. Barney Schreiber’s mudlark Buchanan grabbed the show. Nobody gave Ebel Thatcher a thought in searching the records ior a winner of the Futurity sprint for three-year-olds. | The little brown colt's price floated to 60 to 1. He defeated the even money favor- | ite, Rey del Mundo, less than a length, | taking the lead from Isolation in the stretch. Wizard McBride rode the first choice. Ray Carlo, the sensational maid- en, ran third | NOTES OF THE TRACK. McBride has secured his release Max Miller and will hereafter Crosswaite, who rode Montana Peer- ess, was fined $25 for rough riding. Handzarra will not start in the $1500 | special at five furlongs, to be run next Wednesday over Oakland track. Own- er Van Meter wired from Los Angeles yesterday that his filly out of training. This leaves Bearcatcher, Cruzados, eva Lee, San Nicolas and Princess Titania to contést the issue, | weight for age. It is no wonder thesbooks at Ascot Park are off loser when they lay 4 to 1 against a three. r-old like Sir Wil- fred to beat a cheap lot. Leroy Williams says he is not a good rider of two-year-olds. Jones & Lusk are regretting that the colored rider did not make the fact known be- fore yesterday’'s two-year-old race. Equorum Rex was a supposed good thing in the fifth race. The colt left the barrier slowly and never cut a fig- ure in the running. A carload of coin went up in smoke. Harry Green will have a whole loi to account for if he ever reaches Spo- kane again. Harry received a telegram from two well-known traveling men yesterday _morning requesting that a live one be placed on the wire. He sent them the redhot one, Equorum Rex. When betting began on the fifth race Harry jimself caught the Rey del Mundo fever, betting $50 on the Baldwin colt. Green is the owner ot Ebel Thatcher, and when that colt's price hit 50 to 1 he bet a tenspot just for a fiyer. Last evening the traveling men wired again, to know the open- ing and closing price against Ebel Thatcher. Away better, Bird of Passage would have been hard to beat in ‘the . third race. J. J. Walsh was supposed to be a good post rider. ———————— Gus Heldorn Leads Out Commune, NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 4—City Park racing j resuits: First race, five and a half furlongs—Champ Clark won, Gold Zome second, Adonis third.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Jan. 4.—Profes- sor H. S. White, chairman of the Har- vard athletic committee, made an un- official statement to-night regarding Harvard's attitude on football. Profes- Sor White said: ’ / To fodthall as it was played last fall we are opposed. I cannot officially or for the whole committee, but 1 think I am volcing the sentiments of the committee when I state that. We are not opposed to football as a We are only opposed to the way it ' £port. ‘was played during the bagt season. Our com- mittee will probably take' some radical action within two weeks, which will show where Harvard stands as far as the committee in charge of the athletics of the university goes. If the action of other institutions is not radical enough, according to our thinking, we will be forced to go it alome, no matter what happens. I do not think this will be n however, A report on the injuries sustained by members of the Harvard football squad during the past seasou appeared to-day In the Roston Medical and Surgical Journal. The report was made by Drs. T. H. Nichols and Homer B. Smith, who were in charge of the squad, and is based on written statements of the players and a clinical record. The phy- sicians state that there were 145 in- juries serious enough to keep the play- ers out of the game for a day or two. No mention is made of minér injuries, H ———— Sailor Attempts Suicide. A.

BEATEN AND ROBBED BY TWO HIGHWAYMEN Los Angeles Theatrical Man- ager Is Vietim of Mur- derous Assault. Special Dispatch to The Call. LOS ANGELES, Jan. 4..—[.. E.- Behy- mer, business manager of the Mason Opera-house, and probably best- known theatrical man in this section, was held up, terribly beaten and robbed of ail the money he had ten minutes before midnight to-night by 'two highwaymen, one a negro and the other a white man. Behymer had been to an entertainment at Christ Emscopal Church and was en route home. At Twelfth street and Grand avenue twg men sprang from behind a hedge and covered him with revolvers. He threw up his hands and then began talking to the robbers, and was told to keep still. He did not obey the order and they knocked him down and began kick- ing lum in the face. He was rendered al- most unconscious. Then the robbers searched his pockets, securing a fine so° ereign case, a present from McKee Ran- kin, and worth perhaps $25. It contained $25 in gold. From" another pocket the robbers took about $6 in silver. Then they ran, leaving their victim lying on the side k. He boarded a car, and though he did not have carfare was permitted to ride to police headquarters, where he re- ported the robbery. His face is a mass of cuts and bruises, but his injuries are not serious. He says he would be unable to identify the robbers.
