:, PRESIDENT Harrison OF the Olympic Club
- sLIohgiy In favor of the formation Of
Pacihc Coast Amateur Athletic Association-
Ce is satlshed that the athletes of the Pacific
OoaSl VIII not profit in any way by having
connection with the American Athletic
Union. 1t is quite probable that Mr.. Har-
rison Will correspond IN the near future
a I,-l-
man, with view Of having sent to this CITY
IIoin England team of amateur athletes
winch VIII meet team composed of the
crack outdoor and indoor men of the Pacific
coast In a series OF athletic games, which
Will include running, walking, humping
. weight-puiliDg, boxing, wrestling and GYM
nAstics. N o. IA
Should Lord Harris not approve of this
scheme, said Mr.. Harrison, III am almost
positive that he would be in favor of send
football players.
y, Eleven men can be selected from the
olympic and California University clubs
that would give good accounts Of themselves
against any team, l don't care where 1t
comes from. We have speed, muscle and
an the gamy qualities requisite in a first
ciass iootoail-player among the men OF the
clubs mentioned"
LORD Harris favors cricket more than any
otue[ alnietlc sport, and at his own ex-
pense ne has sent teams to this country and
Australia TO meet all corners.
=, AS the Pacific Coast is without a team
that could compete with any possible
chahce Oh victory against Lord Harris
team IL would. OF course, be out Of place TO
suggest series of cricket games. The
matter will, however, be fully discussed by
the directors of the Olympic Club when
'hey VIII be Installed in their new building.
