FANS AWAIT CRY
OF "PLAY BALL.

The heart of the sardent baseball fan
beats with joy once more. For weeks
and months he has eagerly awaited the
time when his favorites would trod
the green at Recreation Park, and in
a few days his long felt wish shall be
gratified and the CHEEKY cry of Play
bail!' will sound once again and trials
and troubles will be forgotten.
The season gives promise of being
a good one both for magnate and fan.
1t will be battle of California against
Oregon and Washington, the north ver-
sus the south. Each manager hopes
to bring home the flag when the cur
tain is rung down ON the long season
and each assures the fans of his home
team that he has corraled the greatest
aggregation of high grade tossers that
ever came over the rocky pass.
The entire six teams are assembled
and are hard at work getting into form
for the opening of the long campaign.

DENOTEES OF CRICKET
PETITION KING EDWARD
Britishers Ask Him TO Grant Royal
Recognition TO w. G. Grace.
Greatest of Players.

At the annual meeting Of the Cali
fornia Cricket Association recently it
was decided not to keep the name of
Robert 3. Hogue on the list of vice
presidents for the coming year. On
r. B. Hogue's departure for Australia
10 put his name among those of the
vice presidents as a recognition of the
services rendered by him to cricket in
California, whittier it was expected
that he would return.
Now, however, there seems no prob
ability OF his coming back to this
State, and the name of another good
supporter Of cricket, Henry Ward,
also Of the Alameda Club, was sub
stituted for that Of r. B. Hogue The
names Of Herbert Y. Keeling Of the
Lakeport Club, T. w Beakbane of the
Burns Valley Club and J. Wilson Rob
itaille OF the Sacramento Club were
retained. because they are the lead
ing representatives Of cricket in their
respective districts and may, it is
hoped, reorganize the clubs il the op-
portunity arises. AS the Burns VAL
ley, Lakepart and Sacramento clubs
have no organization this year, the
management Of the affairs Of the Cali
fornia Cricket Association will be in
the hands Of the delegates Of the Ala
media, Pacific, san Francisco County
and Santa Cruz clubs.
Though seven clubs elected delegates
last year TO the California Cricket AS
sociation the Sacramento Club did NOT
have any matches arranged for it and
the only event provided for the Lake
County cricketers was a visit to that
county during the Independence day
holidays. II was not found possible TO
make up team of city cricketers for
the "trip. which was abandoned. The
schedule. therefore. provided for only
four clubs, the Alameda, Pacific and
Can Francisco County being set down
for twelve matches each and the Santa
Cruz team for six. The schedule con-
tained twenty-One fixtures, two of
which. viz: Santa Crug against Ala
media at Santa Cruz on August %. and
San Francisco County against Santa
Cruz at Alameda on September IA. did
not take place. This year the cricket
team Of the Santa Cruz Club wishes 70
visit this city and play two matches
on May % and 80, and to receive a visit
from a city club on July and 4 AZ
Santa Cruz.

York and New Jersey, has sent to the
The San Francisco call., 1904-03-12

11.-Weather conditions during the
past week have been decidedly unfa-
vorable for practice on the varsity dia-
mond and on the track. The latter
has been so soft that the track men
have been practically forced to remain
idle part of the time. While every
one on the campus has been looking
forward with interest to the field day
between the freshman athletes and the
Santa Rosa High school team to-mor-
row, Treasurer Cowden has announced
that the meet cannot take place be-
cause of the condition of the track.
On the diamond conditions are lit
tie better, the ground despite the coat
ing Of sand recently given it, being
too wet and too slippery for effective
work.
Coach Doyle seems to have decided
upon the varsity lineup, at least so
far as six Of the positions are on
cerned. Those still in doubt are first
base, left feldnand right field. Colbert
'O6 has retd4hed to college and is
again in the race for the position at
the first corner. Blake '04, Matthews
06 and Stott '07 are also being tried
for the place and it is an open question
as to who will prove the winner. In
the fields Chalmers 'O7, Knight '04,
Moore 'O5 and Sales '05 are the most
promising candidates. The latter is
also making a good showing in the
box and may possibly get into one or
more of the intercollegiate games in

have their positions cinched are: Cap
tain Ball 'O4. catcher; Tritch 'O4,
pitcher; Williams '06 second base;
Swain 'O7. third base; Trowbridge O5,
shortstop; Wrist '06. center field.
The varsity baseball team will play
the strong Santa Clara College nine to-
morrow. Chase, who has proved such
an enigma to the cardinal batters, will
probably be in the box for Santa Clara
and Tritdh will pitch for Stanford. At
present Santa Clara has won two
games and Stanford has won one. One
has been tied. Should Stanford win to-
morrow the tie game will be played off
some time next week The lineup of
the two teams tomorrow will be as
follows:
Stanford-Ban, catcher; Tritch, pitch
er; Colbert. first base; Williams, second
base; Swain, third base; Trowbridge,
shortstop; Chalmers, left field; Writ,
center field: Sales, right field.
Santa Clara-McKune, catcher;
Chase, pitcher; Feeney, first base;
Budde, second base; Griffin, third base;
Fairy, shortstop; Clynes, left field;
Clyne, center field; Durfee. right field.

POSTPONE PONY RACES
UNTIL NEXT THURSDAY
Tanforan Track Will Then BE in Con-
dition If Association Is Favored
With Clear Weather

The officials of the California Polo
and Pony Racing Association met yes
terday and decided to postpone the
racing scheduled for this afternoon at
Tanforan.
The situation was canvassed from
all points of view. superintendent
Fieldwick. who has the track in
charge, said il would be impossible
to do anything with it owing TO the
quantity of rain which fell.
1t was finally decided to race on
Thursday and Saturday of next week.
The time for receiving entries was ex-
tended until next Tuesday. On the
racing days there will be special train
service on the Southrn Pacific and on
the San MateO electric line. Addi-
tional entries may be made with Rob-
ert Leighton, the racing secretary, at
room 21, 421 Market street.
Owing to the condition of the vari-
Gus polo fields about Burlingame the
matches have all been postponed.

Accused Murderers in Court.

Three men accused of the crime of
murder were in court yesterday for
arraignment. Leon Soeder. charged
with killing his brother-in-law, Joseph
Blaise, was in Judge Cooks court, but
by consent his arraignment was con-
tinued till March 81. Giovanni Fossa
and Wong Sang Lung were in Judge
Lawlor's court. Both cases were con-
tinued till to-day. Fossa is accused of
killing Vincenzo Lavagnino on June
2 and the Chinese with killing Joe
Yung Yot on February ..

rains make it difficult to accomplish
much on the tennis courts and for this
reason there has been but little tourn-
ament play in the last few weeks
From now on there will be fewer
rainy days and the tennis club will en-
deavor TO catch up with their sched-
ules. BY playing between showers the
Oakland clubs have their champion
ship singles down almost to the fin
ais and. will probably finish both the
doubles and singles tomorrow, if the
weather is good. The consolation
singles will be played at the same
time. Sixteen names were drawn in
this event and so far only one match
in it has been completed.
In the lower half of the singles
Percy Murdock has won a place in the
finals. He defeated Norman Ambrose
in the semi-finals last Saturday after
noon. Ambrose made a good showing
one-sided. The score in Murdocks
favor was rs, 81. Ambrose had
previously beaten Otis in straight
sets. The score was 6-2. 6-1.
In the upper half Robert Variel de-
faulted to George Baker. Baker won
the first set from Gorrill 6-1. The
rain put a stop to further play, but
Baker is almost sure to win the next
set. Charles Dunlap will meet the
winner of the Baker-Gorrill match in
the semi-f1nals. Baker and Dunlap
should furnish an interesting match
tomorrow morning. While Baker is
a strong favorite, Dunlap is considered
by many to have a chance
The action of the tournament COM
mittee in defaulting Variel to Baker
has been criticized by many, who con-
slider that Variel has not been treated
fairly. The latter beat Drummond
MacGavin, one of the strongest play
ers entered, and undoubtedly had an
excellent chance to win the champion
ship. He was out of town Saturday
and Sunday. but would have been able
TO play this afternoon. VarieI was not
defaulted until late Sunday afternoon
and considering the wet weather the
match might easily have been post
poned.
The committee claims that Baker
and Variel were holding back the sin
giles and for that reason defaulted the
college player. AS good players are
rather scarce in the tournaments it
is poor policy to default men like
Variel. The default of Variel has ac-
complished nothing, as the singles
will be completed no sooner than if
he had been allowed to play to-day.
The tournaments otherwise have been
we'll managed and the mistake of de-
faulting Variel is evidently due to poor
Judgment and a desire to finish the
tournament as soon as possible.
That the singles will be won by
either Murdock or Baker is almost
certainty. Murdoch is in good form
and is figured by the majority to beat
Baker. The latter, however, is a
steady player and consequently dan
gerous opponent.
In doubles only one match was
played last week. In it Heath and
Gorrill beat Parr and Foster in
straight sets. The score was ga. 6-2.
Othef matches could have been play
ed but as the weather was rather un-
certain most of the players did not
appear. In the consolation singles
Gayness beat Ames 6-3. S-6. So. Nc

for the championship of the California

account of the bad condition of the

An interesting match has been ar
ranged for the first or second Sunday
in April. The Thistle team, as the
champions of the league for 10000,
will play against an eleven selected
from the other six clubs included in the
league. The ground on which the game
will take place will be announced later.
Each delegate of the league will draw
up list containing the names of the
men that in his opinion should be in
cluded in such team and will present
1t at the next meeting, on the 23d inst.
1t is almost certain that A. E. ]. Chiv-
ers of the Occidentals will be the goal
keeper of the united team. His work is
more thoroughly good and trustworthy
all round than that of any of the other
goalkeepers, though Williamson of the
Oakland Hornets, Rushton and Airth
have all done good service. For full
backs Petersen should be a certain
choice, with John and Lynch as likely
candidates for the second place. The
halfbacks will probably be selected
from Bayne, Harwood, Chambers,
Mechels, Glarner and Bird. The for
wards are likely to be chosen from the
three Fay brothers, Lees. Shand. Nc
Kenzie, Bradley, Duquesne and o. Hol
