for 100000 cash, or $500 front foot.
The lot had been on the market for

the past week they offered to sell
thirty feet on the east side of Broad
way at $2250 a foot, and upon Its be-

the adjacent owner $2250 foot for his

cash for the same.
The work of razing the buildings
now on the Hill street frontage OF the
Hamburger store site is being done as
rapidly as possible, and as soon as
the ground can be cleared, which will
be within a couple of weeks, the ex-
cavation of the Hill street side of the
lot will commence at once. The retain

coLLEGIANs MEET TOMORROW
Pomona and Occidental VIII Contest
In Track Events on Highland
Park oval

The track meet tomorrow between
the teams of Pomona and Occidental
should be one of the closest and most
interesting ever held in the south. In
their meets last week both teams We're
able to win from their opponents by
large scores and from their showings
so far this season they seem to be very
evenly matched.
Victory Saturday means more than
laurels for that day. 1t means prob
ably also the championship of South
ern California in the quadruple meet
on March "a, for these two teams seem
to be the ones which have the strong
est claim on track honors at present.
From the records made so far Occi-
dental appears to have the best chance
at the dashes. while Pomona has the
better distance men. In the weight
events the Claremonters will have
everything their own way and should
have no trouble in rolling up big lead
which will be hard to overcome. The
jumps, hurdles and pole vault look
about even with Hagerman of Occi-
dental throwing the advantage slightly
to the side of the orange and black.

"Happy" Hogan Does Not Perform to
Standard of Cardinal
Ideas
Special to The Herald.


STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal,
March S.-Santa Clara college nine de-
feated the Stanford baseball team to-
day 8 TO 2. The contest was the most
exciting seen on the campus for a long
time and required ten innings to de-
eide the winner.
The feature of the game was the UNI
piring of Happy" Hogan of Pacific
Coast league fame. Himself once a
Santa Clara player and now the COL
lege coach, he lost no opportunity to
give every close decision to his team.
For seven innings neither team scored,
but in the eighth Santa Clara crossed
the rubber twice.
Stanford tied the score in the ninth
and Santa Clara took a lead of one
run in the first of the tenth. In her
half Stanford had two men on bases
and no outs, but two rank base de-
cisions sent cardinal hopes glinlmer-
ing.

An instance OF the uncertainty Whlcn
attends the game in Frisco was i'll
stanced yesterday when Jimmy Britt
arrived and Immediately directed his
steps to the stronghold of Manager Nc
Carey, with view to getting on with
some man whom the local manager
may select.
There is every reason to believe
that it is Herman whom Britt is after
as the kid is a card and would doubt
less be easier game for the native son
than Aurelio Herrera. Herrera would
like nothing better than try at Britt
and fans would welcome the news that
the two had been matched.
Jimmy said yesterday that he is will

him with, but in all probability the lit
