OLYMPIC CLUB BUILDING
FUNDS ARE BEING RAISED
Big Premium Is Paid by
A. w. Linforth for the
First Script

The work OF raising funds for the
building of the magnificent new home
Of the Olympic Club, as planned by
President william Greer Harrison and
his associates on the board of direc-
tors. was given marked impetus last
night in the temporary clubhouse on
Post street. After the enthusiasm
shown by the members 1t was pre-
dicted that 1t would not be long until
the loyal members would be drinking
toasts to the prosperity OF the club in
its new building on Post street.
One hundred and fifty members met
last night at a dinner, and plans for
the future were discussed in an opti-
mistic vein. DR.. Philip Mills Jones
acted as toastmaster and never allowed
the proceedings to drag. The principal
speakers were President Harrison, VIII
lis Polk and Paul Cowles.
When the speakers had concluded,
Captain Max Rosenfeld was appointed
auctioneer and certificate No. 1 OF the
script which the club has issued was
put up for disposal to the highest bid
der. The script has a par value of 800,
and competition was keen among the
members to procure this particular cer-
tihcate- The bidding opened at 500,
and then the offers went bounding up
ward until the $500 mark was reached,
when 1T was knocked down to A W.
Linforth.
The club officials expect to raise
enough money on the script to install
the elaborate bathing system which
they have planned. Once this is COM
pleted and the members have entered
upon the enjoyment to be derived from
the big salt water tank, it is expected
the money required for the remainder
of the building will be quickly forth
coming.

Captain Mohler's Men Are Rounding
Into Splendid Condition

BAKERSFIELD. March 23.-The last
week of the training season of the
Seals finds Captain Mohler and his men
hard at work mastering the style of
baseball Manager Danny Long and the
diminutive leader have mapped out
All preliminary work has been gone
through. the thinning out of the big
squad has commenced and the veterans
and the more promising of the young
sters are now in the best of form.
Signal practice is the main feature
of the daily sessions, and to put his
plays into action and demonstrate how
and when they are to be used Captain
Mohler, during the last hour and a
half of the morning, calls for game
between the Yannigans and the Reg
ulars. Many of the younger players
are experiencing much difficulty in
swinging on to the knack of the inside
play. but under the watchful eyes of
their captain and the older Seals Inn
provement is noticeable each day.
Barney Joy. the giant twirIer, is the
one upon whom the newness falls
heavily. This being Barney's first ex-
perience with baseball as 1t is played
in America the many fine points are
battling him. He is an untiring worker
and goes into the game with a spirit
that brings from his teammates vol
umes of helpful suggestions and
pointers.
The control which many critics were
fearful that Barney did not possess is
coming to the surface. and with plenty
of work. under the guardianship of
Charley Street. the Honolulu boy is
losing his wildness and has the groove
to the plate located.
The personnel of the infield and out
field was decided upon before Long left
the club in San Francisco. Nick
williams at first is doing all that can
be desired. With his height, reach and
throwing ability he is fulfilling the
fondest hopes of Danny Long.
At second Captain Mohler is the
same speedy ground coverer and heady
player of former years. and in Moriar-
ity. on the other side of the sack. he
has a coworker who promises to be a
revelation to the northern fans.
Charlie Irwin. at third. has struck a
steady gait and is fielding and hitting
well.
Hildebrand and Spencer, in left and
center, are rounding into shape nicely.

hours. just to see how the carpenters
and other mechanics were progressing
with their work. This is certainly
showing real interest in the open

management can induce this many per-
