THE RECORDS TO BE ATTACKED,
Athletic Club Boys on Exhibi-
tiOn This Afternoon.
A Number of Interesting Contests
for Local Amateur Athletes.
All the Men Entered in Excellent Con
dition-Gossip About the Contest
nnts-The Events and Those
who WIN Take Part.

1t ID extremely probable that some
record breaking will take place this
afternoon at Athletic park. This is the
eighth field day of the Los Angeles Ath-
letic club, and in the list of entries is
found all the best talent OF Southern
California, and several northern repre-
sentstives as well.
The young men are all in most excel
lent condition, and are eager for their
cues to appear before the public. 1t is
among the bicycIists, however, that the
record breaking is likely to occur. The
three most prominent riders are W. A.
Burke, L. w. Fox and VIM. NJ. Jenkins.
Fox is pro badly in better condition and
has trained harder than any other man
in the entire list Of entries. Jenkins and
Burke have not been training so indus
triously as might have been desired, but
both are riding very fast.
NJ. Dozier, jr., is another fast rider, as
is Phil Kitchen. They can also be
counted upon to be in at the finish. In
the foot races, Howard is the favorite in
the 100-yard run. There ia considerable
Gard money in sight, however, and sew
ersl fair sized bets that he would beat
Howard have been made.
The club novice 100-yard dash will also
be q pretty event. Goodhue ia from
Long Beach, and does IL seconds with
out any trouble. German is q clever
runner aleo. He has not been training
very steadily, and carries a trifie too
much stomach. He will, however, be
near the front. Harrington is another
good man.
The jumping and pole vaulting will
also be interesting. The favorite in the
latter is w. w. Weller of the Athletic
club, He is an exceedingly clever man.
He haa not trained to any extent for the
event, but if his performance is any
thing like that of last year he will in all
probability win.
The programme will start at 2 80 p.
m. sharp, as there are 23 events, and it
is desired to finish all of them before
dark.
