 Names.
The Con1plete List oi Entries and the No able Events to Take
 Place.

For the first time since the spring of 1892 the Pacific Amateur Athletic Asso- citation will hold championship games worthy of the name. It was the old Olympic Club which kept alive the spirit of athleticism, and in the former asSocla- ton meets the contest for supremacy was fought out between the olympic Club and the University of California. Then came the advent of Stanford, which practically changed the whole order of things. Intercollegiate field days rang the death knell on general championsnlp games, the Olympic Club men, lowing to their collegiate superiors on the track, drew out of the race and the association as a fosterer of athletics sank into des- uetude
 On Saturday at the Olympic Club grounds the field and track contests will be between three institutions-the Uni versity of California, Stanford and the tries swell the programme of events. The games will be noteworthy for several req sons, the two colleges will again cross swords and there will also be pitting or the college athlete against his younger brother in the preparatory schools. Many of these embryo athletes have won lau- rels on the track and field with records to their credit equal to, if not surpassing, those of the sprinter more advanced in years and didactic qualifications Sev- eral of the High School students are looking with covetous eyes to the prizes offered, and they are of the opinion that the colors of Stanford and California will be lowered in more than one instance.
 The field day should be exceptionally interesting and the races exciting not only for those entered but for the, specta- tors as we'll It is very likely that the Olympic outdoor grounds will be. taxed to their full capacity on Saturday, for the high schools will turn out in a body The entries closed yesterday.
