NINETEENTH
FIELD DAY.
Athletics on the Berkeley Uni.
Versity Campus.
A Large Gathering of Ladies to Witness
spiritedly Contested Games-Rscords
Lowered-Tug-of-W War.

The nineteenth field day of the University
of California yesterday was largely attended,
with the fair sex in the majority. The
athletic contests were begun precisely at
o'clock and continued until 4, when the large
gathering of spectators retired thoroughly
pleased with the afternoon entertainment.
During the games the students of the
various colleges made the woodland echo
with repeated college yells, which were not
exactly understood by some of the ladies who
witnessed for the first time a collegiate
athletic meeting. Some of the students OF
the University donned white hats of the
battered plug pattern, and ornanented in
the most unique manner by a senior artist
of decidedly superior taste. These gentle
men OF peculiar head-gear entered into a
very spirited race, which was closely con-
tested and caused much laughter.
A very good feature of the days sport
was the tug-of-war between teams Of four
men representing the classes of "a and 90
The track events were all very fair. Pheby's
half-mile from scratch was an excellent run
ming performance. He was close second
to Waterman, who had 27-yards' handi-
cap. Hammond's standing jump, in which
he lowered the University record, was an
other important feature.
AS whole the games were we'll contested
