SP0RTSMEN WILL
DISCUSS GAME
PROTECTION

Representative men from all sections
today TO discuss what game laws shall
be recommended for the consideration
Of the Legislature. It is TO be hoped
that the sportsmen Will approach the
question in a broad-minded way and
that they viii not allow themselves to
be hampered by such a minor matter
as the defense of an employe of the
California Fish Commission.
This latter question seems to have
split the sportsmen into two factions
and the real issue. that of giving the
game within the confines Of the State
ADEQUATE protection, has been lost to
view The trout in the mountain
streams, the deer on a thousand hills,
the ducks. the quail and all the game
birds are as valuable an asset to the
people in general as the cattle, the
horses, the sheep and the grain on the
broad acres Of the State.
The spectacle Of the splendid body or
sportsmen Of a State so rich in game
as California lining UP in two great
armies to oppose one another is not
an edifying one. IT should be easy for
them to reconcile their differences and
then present a united front to the men
who see in game birds and trout only
SO much goods in which to traffic.
The present division Of the sports
men is a mistake of the head and not
Of the heart. as all recognize the neces-
Sffv Of adequate game protection and
differ only in their ideas as TO the
methods by which IT can be secured

Jockey,s Feats .SH,
the Enthusiasm OF
Large Crowd
By j. r. Jeffery

In spite of the fact that four
favorites and two well-supported
second choices were successful at
Emeryville race track yesterday,
most of the bookmakers Jared no
worse than an even break with
the talent. Notwithstanding the
muddy condition Of the course
and the moderate caliber of the
card, the racing was extremely
interesting to the exceptionally
large Friday crowd that turned
out to see the sport.
The riding of Jockey Walter
Miller was easily the feature The
lad had four mounts in the six
races. He won with two, was
third with another and finished
fourth with Iilo de Orc, one OF
the Williams 2-year-olds. The
mounts that he won with were
Del Fountains Beechwood. ia
vorite in the fifth race, and Harry
Green's Major Tenny. second choice in
the last event of the day. His other
mount was the TO 10 favorite Nina
Gibson, Joe Yeager's maiden filly. She
ran exactly as she did In her last pre-
vious start, when she closed strong
from a slow beginning. and third was
the best that Miller could do with her
after turning into the stretch in prac-
tically last position.
Superb horsemanship was responsi-
BILE for both victories that the lad
scored His rides on both of the
horses that he won with aroused the
enthusiasm of the crowd to high
pitch, and he was given a royal re-
ception each time he returned to the
stand to dismount. The finish which
he put up on Major Tenny in the
final race of the day was a fitting eli
max to his good work Besides being
an artistic effort. it set the crowd wild
with excitement.
The San Francisco call., 1906-12-15
MILLER RIDES TO VICTORY

From the head of the stretch to the
paddock Miller rode Major Tenny as
he has not had to ride in any of his
previous races here Prestige, the odds
on favorite, unquestionably the supe-
rior of the winner, had outrun Tenny
in the early stages and was regarded
as an easy winner after Hunter had
opened UP gap of two lenghths with
him. Miller had been nursing Tenny
along, however, and sat down on him
after turning into the stretch. The
old gelding responded to Miller's ad-
mirable handling and gamely fought
his way alongside the flying Prestige
Miller held him together-probably as
the old fellow had never been helped
along before-with the result that he
flashed into the lead after passing the
paddock gate and caught the eye of the
judges a length in front
His followers had a moment of sus-
pense, however on account of the
swerving of both horses into the rail
a short distance from the wire. Fears
of a foul being claimed were dissi-
pated only when the official numbers
dropped down.
The boy on Prestige made no at
tempt to protest Millers victory. Had
claim of foul been made, 1t is un-
likely that it would have been allowed,
as Judge Hopper stated afterward that
he had watched the incident closely
and was convinced that the loser was
not at all hampered by the swerving
of Major Tenny, after Prestige had
first swerved toward the rail-
In the opener, over the Futurity
course. Jake Ward won by only a
neck from the fast coming Bell Reed.
The winner opened as a 81 favorite
and was played down to SIS at post
dtime. Soundly set the pace to the
Istretch and then cracked. DIR. Sher-
man ran prominently throughout and
saved third place from the poorly rid
den Distributor by a head. The hot
tip of the race, Monster. finished in
the ruck, did the wel1-supported
Marie H, although the latter was clos
ing well.
