HURLED FROM BUGGY
BY RUNAWAY HORSE
Mr.. and Mrs. c. B. Bryan and Daush-
ter Sustain Severe
Bruises

In an exciting runaway yesterday
afternoon on East Seventh street, near
Central avenue, C. B. Bryan, his wife
and three-year-old child were thrown
from a buggy and all sustained severe
injuries.
Bryan was picked up bleeding and
insensible and badly cut about the face
and arms. His wife sustained COM
pound fracture of her right arm, be-
sides bruises on her face and body.
The child was severely bruised about
the face.
Bryan was driving spirited horse
when, at Seventh and Alameda streets,
the animal became frightened at a
switch engine and began to rear and
plunge. Bryan lost control of the an
imal, and, maddened with fright, il
ran down Seventh street, narrowly
missing several horses and wagons in
| it's path.
Near Central avenue the horse
swerved and the buggy overturned,
throwing the occupants to the pave
ment. The victims were taken into
residence nearby and physician was
called.
| They refused to be taken to a hos
pital and were later removed to their
/ home.
The horse was captured by Police
man Glenn near the Southern Pacific
tracks, after the buggy had been de-
molished.

UPPER CLASSMEN WIN
OCCIDENTAL TRACK MEET
Tryout and Interclass Field Day Of
Presbyterian Athletes Fur.
nisbee Good Snort

While collegiate records were never
in jeopardy and the time in all in
stances was comparatively slow, the
interclass field day and tryout on Occi-
dental oval yesterday afternoon proved
that the Presbyterians possess ma
terial that can be rounded into a cred
liable track squad by March 25.
The upper classmen toted off the
honors of the meet with a total of 81
points, the lower classmen following
with 80, and the preps' aggregate of SS
points being ample proof that their
efforts did not prove abortive. The
high wind that prevailed throughout
the afternoon was in some measure re-
sponsible for the poor time made in
the sprints. In the 1O0-yard dash
Roberts won in II 2-5 seconds. This is
just a second slower than the time
made by Parsons of U. S. c. in the
Methodists' interclass field day. Rob-
erts is developing rapidly, however,
and it would not be surprising II he
were able to clip the fraction off this
mark with added experience and
training.
AS was expected, Hagerman annexed
the broad jump without much effort.

distance of 21 feet inches, decisively

The two-mile run was productive OF
a close and interesting contest. Jeffers,
Crane and Bacon were well punched
at the final sprint but Jeffers proved
a trife stronger and broke the worsted

man husbanded his strength until the

SLOAN AGAIN
IN THE SADDLE
GREAT RIDER WILL BE SEEN
AT PANAMA
Edward corrigan's New Race Track
viii Begin Operations Today.
Inaugural Meeting Will
Be Big Success
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 9.-"Tod'
Sloan will make his first appearance in
the saddle in America i'm nearly four
years tomorrow. He will ride at the
opening of the Panama track at New
Orleans. He will probably have his
first mount on one of Edward Corri-
gan's thoroughbreds, as he is under
contract to ride for the Master Of
Hawthorne"
Tired of waiting for recognition of his
case by the English Jockey club stew
ards Sloan has finally decided to brave
the chances of reinstatement and TO
earn his livelihood at his vocation on
any track upon which he will be per-
mtted to ride. He has been under sus-
pension for four years now, and al
though he has had a favorable decision
by the French courts against the
French Jockey club, he does not believe
he will be placed in good standing on
the English turf this year.
Sloan is aware that his services woul1
be much more valuable in the east
but as he knows that permission to ride
in the east hinges on a license from
England-there is a reciprocal under
standing on this question between the
English and eastern jockey clubs-he
thinks 1t much better to earn dollar
where he may than to wait for a big
prospective salary.
TOD" has a very liberal contract with
Corrigan. OF course it does not call for
as much money as he was paid in for
mer years for his services, but he re-
alizes that it is the first step toward
building up a new fortune, and he is
satisfied with it.
"All I need is the opportunity, he
said to a friend recently, " and I'll
prove to you that I am not a dead one
in the saddle. 1 know 1 can ride as
well as did in former years, and with
d few weeks practice will be ready to
show the way to all my rivals of the
pigskin.'
Great preparations are being made
here for the opening of the new course.
Stables of horses are arriving daily, and
from present indications the inaugural
meeting will be a great success. The
purses will be worth $500 each $1OO
more than the amount offered by the
Crescent City Jockey club. This extra
$780, as well as the fact that the handi-
caps will be worth from $3.50 to $1,000
each, will serve to attract the best
horses from the old course.

DAY WITH TALENT
We'll Backed Horses Invariably Fin-
ish Back In the Ruek-cigar-
lighter Wins Feature Event
at Local Track
ny FOREST LOWRY.

Although spectators and spectators
were out in force yesterday there was
comparatively little in the racing to
reward them for having taken the
trouble to go out to the track
The card was only of moderate quail
ity and the racing was for the most
part colorless. notwithstanding the
fact that there were some rather close
finishes.
The free handicap at six furlongs
for S-year-olds and upward was of
course the feature of the days pro
gram. Delagoa, from the stable of
]. j. McCafrerty, carrying 110 pounds
and on a track exactly to her liking,
was always favorite at s to 5. Seven
pretty fair handicap horses faced the
barrier in the event.
Cigarlighter, who turned up the win
ner and held at ID to in the betting,
was badly outrun in the first part.
He moved up fast the last eighth and
responded gamely to punishment the
last part. Under the keen urging he
showed liking for the company with
something to spare. Martinmas, open
ing at 8 to 1 and receding to to 1,
finished second, nose in front of Prin-
cess Titania. Delagoa finished out of
the money.
C. Stubenbord's Wee Girl made it
four out of five yesterday by winning
the first race on the card from Silver
Sue and Sand Storm. Wee Girl was
coupled in the betting with Father
Catcham. The pair were held at 8 to
at post time. Silver Wedding was
made favorite and closed at to 5.
The first three got away flying and the
race was always between them.
Fustian, backed from to to to 5,
won the one mile purse race for 4-year-
olds and upward from Panique and
Ralph Young. Gorgalete, opening at
to and receding to IL to 5, made a
bad showing and finished fifth.
The Slauson course affair for 3-year-
olds and upward was taken by Rubi-
ana, which closed at 9 to 1. She dashed
to the front as the barrier arose,
showed keen speed for four furlongs,
but seemed to tire badly on the end
Mart Gentry stole up on the rail and
finished resolutely under the whip. He
just got up in time to nip Sweet Kitty
Bellairs for the place.
Helgerson won the mile and an
eighth selling race, fifth on the card
at the good odds of to 1 from Posi-
ton, who was held at 4 to 1, and
Golden Light, which receded from to
1 to to 1. The favorite, Watercure
made sorry showing and was never
in the hunt. He was played for good
thing and the books cleaned up hand
somely on his defeat.
Montana Peeress beat Patsy Brown
three lengths for first honors in the
closing event, with Great Mogul third
five lengths away. Montana Peeress
opened at to ) and closed at 9 to 5
Patsy Brown was backed from 10 to ]
to 10 l. Namtor, the favorite, finished

TRACK NOTES

Silver Wedding was heavily played in
the first race but had no chance with
the start. The boy pulled her up when
he saw she had been left.
Father Catcham ran a phenomenal
race. Away poorly the boy rushed
him to the front the first quarter, but
the weight told on him and as his
stable companion was running easily
the boy pulled him up in the last fifty
yards.
Jockey Dugan was substituted for
Dillon on Fustian yesterday and the
horse made runaway race of it, but
had to be ridden out at the end.
Panique was the touted good thing
in the second race and the wise, as
we'll as the public money, went in on
hm until his price was forced from
6 to 8 to / at post time. He was well
ridden and just did manage to get the
place.
Throw out Gorgalete's efforts as she
did not have particle of speed in her
race and can do better.
George Berry was prominent into
the stretch when he bled and was
pulled up.
Tyrolian with an even break would
have won the third race. As the bar
rier was released she swerved badly.
Then she went after her field and
finished close up.
Tab Dora for early action. Away
none too well was shut out twice and
finished like whirlwind.
Ben Lear bears watching especially
when he is in lightly weighted as he
is ready 10 win soon.
Princess Titania was the victim of
poor ride or else she would have been

shut out twice.
