Holiday
Exciting

Snedigar was in rare form in the hun
dred, as can best be appreciated when
il is understood that he negotiated the
distance in 10 3-5 seconds. With bet
ter track the University of California
boy would easily have come close to
10 seconds. Had Dan Kelley, the
Northwest wonder, with q record of
3 3-5 seconds, been on hand his repu-
tation would have stood a show of be-
ing shattered. Snedigar captured the
100-yard dash, the broad jump and the
pole vault, as well as taking second
place in the hammer throw, netting
him a total of 19 points. That record
won for him the trophy offered for the
best individual performance. A. A.
Glarner of the Olympic Club was Sec
ond, with a first in the mile run, a tie
for first place in the quarter-mile and
third in the 22o-yard dash.
SMITH WINS CALL TROPHY.
The sso-yard run for high school
boys, with the trophy offered by the
San Francisco Call as an Incentive,
brought out = good class of young
sters. Before they had completed the
half-mile journey they proved that
of the Lowell High School who was the
first across the tape G. Padilla of the
Lick School was well in the lead until
the last ten feet and but for an un-
fortunate tumble there might have
been a different ending to the story of
the race. Padilla, Smith and T. E
Free of the Oakland High School in
the order named were near the tape,
with Padilla on the inside track, when
the Lick man tripped and lost his
stride. He piuckily tried to regain
himself, but Smith shot ahead and
crossed the line in the lead, with Free
second and L. n. Thompson, also a
Lick man, in third place
Padilla took his misfortune like a
man and was among the first to con-
graduate his opponent on the victory.
The Call trophy and the wreath for the
winner were presented to the Lowell
athlete by Mayor Schmitz, who spoke a
few words as he passed over the
artistic cup.
The team trophy. as was to have
been expected, went to the Olympic
Club, whose members took q total of
four firsts and a number of seconds and
third, out Of the regular events sched-
uled for clubs and other organizations

OF the two weeks series, at Idora Park
Oakland, divided honors yesterday the
san Francisco aggregation taking the
morning contest by the score OF TO !,
and the Commuters the afternoon game
by the score Of 70 /. Both games were
closely contested. and a good sample Of
the national game was passed out
IN the morning game the match ran
along well until the eighth. The Com
muters had scored a single tally in the
fourth On Devereaux's error Sears
scored, making the tally sheet stand
even in the eighth. Both aggregations
failed 20 take advantage Of their oppor-
tunity in the next frame, and the game
ended in the tenth. when Williams
scored on Franck's error and won for
the Seals.
Five thousand enthusiasts assem-
bled in the stands in the afternoon.
Although the game was played on the
Commuters field. the san Franciscans
in the stands greatly outnumbered the
across the bay" rooters. They cheered
and yelled. and that wasn't all They
discharged fireworks galore when their
team did things. All the way through

Of III feet inches, seven inches better
than his previous figures, which have
stood as a coast record more than two
years. In practice Plaw has been
throwing the hammer more than It's
feet, but conditions were bad yesterday
and it is considered that his showing
was remarkably good. :
Glarner was given something of a
surprise in the quarter-mile run by E,
McCauley of the Alameda High School
The Olympic Club sprinter led until
toward the close, when McCauley closed
with a rush that YVES surprising and
made 1T a dead heat. The men split the
points. but Glarner generously conceded
to the High School boy from across the
bay the Wellington trophy that was
ready for the winner.
CONNOLLY CAPTURES TwO-MILE..
Old Ireland had q chance to cheer in
the two-mile race. for C. Connolly of
the Emerald Gaelic Association, alone
at scratch. gritted his teeth. caught the
leader in the second lap and finished
with an easy seventy-five yards lead
over w. Garvin of Lick, who started
with a handicap of 100 yards. Con-
molly had no one to Yet pace, and when
the opportunity offered took the lead
IOT himself. AS he nSdTeQ the tape TOT
the finish he let out few kinks and
passed the judges as IL he were com
peting in one of the short-distance
events OF the afternoon. 1t was popu-
lar victory. because of his pluckiness
and he was cheered heartily as he went
forward to receive his prize.
William Powell, Olympic Club
hurdler was one of the unlucky ones
of the afternoon. Three men started
with Powell at scratch. Van Metre OF
the army had lead of fifteen yards and
Lidga was allowed five yards. Powell
caught them on the second hurdle
when he had his race well In hand, and
was about TO make the last jump when
he slipped and lost to Won Metre.
There were side lights, such as mil
itary races. where the soldiers took of
and put on their equipment, and races
for the police and firemen. There was
some boxing and wrestling, mostly OF
the serio-comic style, with plenty OF
punching, but no one harmed The
day was an eventful one for contestants
and spectators alike. The summary:

With the keenest competition, a
close finish here and dead heat there.
was dedicated yesterday San Fran
clsco's new stadium and athletic field
in Golden Gate Park, that bids fair
to rival fields of its kind the world
over. There was no one missing when
the first event was called. More than
3o.0 600 people gathered on the sur
rounding slopes and overffowed on the
field itself to watch stout-limbed Cali
fornia boys contest for the cups and
trophies as well as the wreaths of
laurel bestowed upon the winners.
Despite the fact that the field was
opened in a partially completed condi-
ton because of the haste TO provide a
Fourth Of July programme, in the face
of conditions that might well daunt
the men in charge, the Olympic Club
carried through its share of the enter
tainment in a most creditable manner.
There were no bitches, no tiresome de-
lays, and the programme, long though
il was, held the spectators TO the
last 1t was worth while to watch not
only the events as they were decided,
but also that mass of humanity gath
cred TO assist in making the occasion
one long TO be remembered. Break
ing of records was Well-nigh impos-
sibie. due 10 the condition of the track
and the wind that sprang up, but no
one event was a walkover and the
winner had TO contend until he had
crossed the tape in the track events.
sNEDIGAR is THE STAR.
Snedigar the all-around crack of the
University of California, was easily
the star of the day although he par
TALLY divided the glory with Plaw of
the Olympic Club, who, in an attempt
to- break the worlds record for the
L.
record made some two years ago.
