attend and many of the club men. Most
OF them will 60 up this afternoon or to-
morrow and make two days stay of it.

owed for the Sacramento meet is due to
the untiring efforts of Scott F. Ennis,
president of the club there; C. J. AT.
water, secretary of the race-meet commit
tee; Mr.. Woodson of the Record Union,
1. Stewart Upson, Horace Crocker and a
