SOME TEMPTING PICNIC MENUS.

There is one important thing to remember in
getting up picnic luncheon; don't be over-gen-
erous and take too much. Nobody wants to lug
back home the surplus edibles which should never
have been taken. The most tickle appetite sur
prises itself under the mellowing influence of the
invgorating air and the novelty of it all, but it
has limit, too. Here are some tempting menus:
Pressed chicken, Saratoga chips, brown
bread, sardine and lettuce sandwiches, stuffed
olives, cheese, devils food cake, grape juice,
ginger, Lemonade raspberry vinegar, fruit.
2-Jellied consomme, graham sandwiches with
filing of minced meat and nuts, deviled eggs.
cheese waters, tomatoes, cinnamon bun, iced
tea punch or blackberry cordial, fruit.
3-Potato salad, rye and graham sandwiches,
with fried eggs, boiled ham and current jelly,
sweet pickles. tomatoes, fruit, spiced cakes, lem
onade or hot coffee
4-Eggs stuffed with deviled ham, anchovy and
olive sandwiches, buttered rolls, India relish,
sliced tomatoes, orange marmalade, sponge cake,
fruit, raspberry vinegar ginger ale peach sherbet.
5-Planled fish, boiled corn, potatoes roasted
in ashes, tomato salad with mayonnaise, corn
mullins, sliced cucumbers, fruit shortcake orange

Spectacular Contest Looked For When
Long and James Meet in the Finals
Fair Player Will
Defend Honor
Of South.

The annual coast tennis champion
ship events viii come to a close on
the Hotel Rafael courts today. Four
titles were disposed of on Saturday
and the remaining two come up for
decision this afternoon. The chal-
lenge match of the mems singles, which
is the most important event of the
year, will be played at 2:S0 o'clock.
The contestants will be Melville Long,
eli allenEer, and George James, cham
picu.
For tie past eight or ten months
the downfall of Champion James has
been pre- iicted, and not without cause.
James haas not won a tournament since
he annexed his title and has been
beaten by almost every frst-class
player in the bay counties since that
time. Yet despite these facts the cham
pion cannot be denied a chance to re-
tain his title. James is always a dan
gerous opp onent and when he gets a
streak on is hard TO beat. He is a
hard fighter and despite his numerous
defeats has an abundance Of self-con-
fidence.
James is extremely partial to hot
weather and if today proves a scorcher
he viii have a great cnance to beat
Lon.g. The latter is but 16 years Of
age and if he wins the championship
will enjoy the distinction of having
won the highest honors at an earlier
age than any player on the coast.
While young Longs playing in the
tournamen was neither sensational
nor remarkable, he played good,
steady game and disposed of the best
players on the coast in clever fashion.
Long does not play a snowy game.
but he is steady, has a variety of
strokes and is strong. In a year or
two he should develop wonderfully.
The match between Long and James
will prove a closer one than many
figure. James, knowing that a ma
jority expect him to lose, will fight
harder than ever Having played
through the tournament and disposed
of such cracks as Bell, Foley, Bundy
and Brown, Long has a decided adj
vantage, and it is more than likely
he will take home with him both the
junior and senior titles.
1t is a noteworthy fact that while
Melville Long beat Bell. Brown, Foley
>and Bundy quite comfortably, he came

OIL YMPIC ATHLETES

After reading the returns of the an

event fell to Myer Prinstein, with a
jump of 22 feet AZ inches.
The high jump was won by Patterson
at feet liz inches. Charming Hall is
always good for six feet or higher.
The mile was won in the fast time of
4:22 As. This would have been too
much for A A. Glarner. but he would
undoubtedly have been among tie
point winners. Connolly, the sensa-
tional distance runner, would have been
a hard man to beat in the five-mile run.
The Dipsea Indian race over the
Marin County Hills, from Mill Valley to
the ocean, on October z, will bring out
an unusually large field of runners this
year. Al Coney promises a large prize
list. There will be cups for a number
of place men and for those making fast
time. In addition to these there will be
special prizes for high school and uni
versity men.

OARSMEN
ANXIOUS FOR A
RETURN RACE.

LONDON. Sept s.-while naturally
keenly disappointed at their failure to
defeat the Cambridge crew, the Harvard
oarsmen are offering no excuses. Dur
ing the five weeks spent on the Thames
they exerted every effort to reach that
form which they hoped would enable
them to win, and entered their boat in
perfect condition, but, as was proved,
this was not sufficient to overthrow
the English crack university crew,
which Captain Filley and his men can
didly admit was too strong for them.
The Americans rowed their best from
start to finish, and took advantage of
every lesson they had learned since
reaching England, and did not lose hope
until Cambridge crossed the line. Their
only wish now is to have an opportuni-
tyyof meeting the wearers of the light
blue In American waters.
The Harvard's men, having completed
the senior work Of their visit, are de-
voting their week in England to pleas
ure. They paid an early visit to their
training quarters at Putney this morn

lege, Cambridge, where John Harvard
was educated Tomorrow the men will

nave marked bearing on their riding
in Oakland during the forthcoming
winter season
Frank Graham. Mcbride. Tim Sulli-
van and Lloyd Fountain all did Well
Graham was seen in the saddle on
more occasions than the other three
pilots. but his mounts were accepteo
a random. His record Is an adnlraoie
one While not the most finished rider
in the country by any means Graham
has the reputation OF being honest ana
he is a general favorite with the
Seattle public. 1t was nip and tuck
between Sullivan and Mcbride. The
former will display brilliant form In
the saddle at times. then will be seized
with a feeling of inertia and invite
criticism from his admirers. With
trife more experience Jim would be-
come a star next winter. Mcbride IS
a diplomat. continually out sH1rmish--
ing for choice mounts. and his showing
here is a splendid one II the relations
between Mcbride and the starter were
more amicable his showing would have
been better
Keogh, who exercised horses for the
Rice stable all last winter and was
formerly in the employ of Charley
denSnall, promises 10 De one OF tne
seasons sensations. He passed the
short pantaloon period some five or six
years ago and his riding shows marked
improvement.

John Ellerd has a diminutive youth

dangerously close to losing to Rich
worth Nicholson. About ten years ago
the latter was the most promising
young player on the coast and won
derful future was predicted for him.
Nicholson has been out of the game
fer at least 1--WE years. yet he made
Long spend an uncomfortable hour. OF
course Nicholson has no license to beat
Long, but the latter's close call is just
another instance of how uncertain the
game of tennis is. The old-timer
simply had a streak against Long;
after coming within a point of losing
to Nourse in the preceding round.
The finals of the ladies, singles tour
nament should prove almost as interest,"
ing as the Long-Janes match.A For
the first time in FIVE or six years
girl from this section of the State
will be seen in the finals. The Suttons
and other clever players from the south
have outclassed the local players in
the past.
Miss Hotchkiss. the little State cham
pion from Berkeley, not only won a
place in the finals. but also has the
distinction of having beaten Sutton
After being almost beaten by Miss
Coda Myer of the Golden Gate Club
Annex, Miss Hotchkiss beat Mrs. Bruce
who was Miss Ethel Sutton, in straight
sets. MISS MYer made WOnderfui
showing for a novice. She is a young
lady OF about 16 years. who has played
tennis only two years. yet she held her
own with the best players on the coast
The final match today will bring
together Miss Hotchkiss and Miss
Gabriel Dobbins OF; Los Angeles. This
is the last chance the southerners have
to win title and Miss Dobbins can
be depended upon to do her best. She
has always ranked next to the Suttons,
but has never beaten any of the four
sisters For this reason many expect
to see Miss Hotchkiss carry off the
honors. Miss Dobbins has excellent
ground strokes and plays almost en-
tirely in the back COURT On the other
hand, Miss Hotchkiss has developed her
net game and will not be in the back
court much of the time.
With a good net player opposed to
a good back court player the exchanges
will be shorter than usual, but the
tennis should prove more interesting.
