UNUSUALLY GOOD MONDAY
RACING CARD IS OFFERED
Fields Are Well Balanced
and Close Contests
Are Likely

Todays Emeryville card promises
good sport, as all the races have an
open appearance. The fields are of
more than ordinary Monday caliber.
Adrian should beat Husky and Willie
T. in the opener. The latter's last race
was good enough to make him look
like a fair sort. Husky is a promising
youngster, too.
Kruka may be able to win the sec
ond, as she has run second her last
two outs In similar company. Alta Spa
probably will be the contender.
Boloman is in good form and at the
weights should beat Supreme Court in
the third. If Jarrett gives him anything
like fair chance. Watchful is in light
and may get some of the money.
Cadichon and Lazell probably will
fight 1t out in the fourth. Both won
their last outs. Nutting will be up on
Lazell.
II Comilfo runs back TO his last race
he will win in the fifth, with fair rae
ing luck. Elevation Is the likely con-
tender.
The sixth should be the best race of
the day. Mistys Pride, Earl Rogers.
Pimkim. Princess Wheeler and Trium-
phant all appear to have a chance. but
the first named should win.

OARSMEN BRAVE STORM
AND ROW ON THE BAY
Members of the Dolphin Swimming
and Boating Club Will Give
a Clambake

The wet weather does not seem to
dampen the ardor of the members, OF
the Dolphin Swimming and Boating
Club. About thirty of the members
were at the clubhouse yesterday. Some
Of them even braved the elements and
went for a row. Among the skiffmen
who were out were Sieve Vicini, Oscar
Mohr, J.. McKevitt and Walter Stein.
Although II was raining and a wind
was blowing, there was little sea and
the oarsmen went as far as the life
saving station in the outriggers.
Thomas Harris, Charles NJ. Farrell, Au-
gust Bertrand and William Kutter en-
3oyed a practice row in the barge Cali
fornia, accompanying the skiffmen to
the life saving station. Leo Weinand
took a party OF friends out in his
launch as far as Harbor View for

GRAz|ALL0 IS FAVOR|TE
FOR BENN|NG HANDICAP
Walter Miller Will Pilot the
Public Choice in the
Big Race
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

WASHINGTON, March 24.-When the
gates open at Benning tomorrow there
will be betting enough to please every
one The story that the District At
torney would stop the layers is not re-
garded seriously and it is expected that
seventy-five bookmakers will be hard
at work gathering in the shekels of
the venturesome.
If big crowds of owners, trainers,
Jockeys, layers and players are any
criterion of interest in a race meeting,
the one at the Benning track this
spring promises to eclipse all others
at this course. With twenty-five horses
named to start in the Benning handi-
cap, the largest number ever sent out
for thfs event, 1t is certain that at least
fifteen will go to the post.
Graziallo is the favorite among all
classes of turfmen. The fact that he
has worked well and is preferred by
Billy Marth, his trainer, to FIVE other
eligibles in his barn, indicates that he
has regained much OF his 1906 form
a period In his career when he was a
high-class racer. Walter Miller will
have the mount.
The other candidates that md most
favor with horsemen are Arimo, Gold
Sitter, Slickaway, Lord Boanerges.
Tickle and Rose of Dawn. The latter.
a castoff from Harry Payne Whitney's
stable, is regarded as Graziallo's most
dangerous opponent.

Kid" Mohler could run back of the
that happened his way.
The outfield did not work quite as
well as it might. This may be ex-
planned because of the rough condition
of the field. Many a ball that looked
to be going straight for Hildebrand.
Spencer or Hopgood. invariably took
a bad bound in one OF the numerous
holes and went nearly to the fence.
Chief Esola behind the bot showed
the multitude that he was there. Be-
sides catching a game that would have
done in almost any company, he drove
out a pretty single to right that net
ted a run and also showed a lot of
speed on the sacks.

For a few innings IL looked as
though the big Kanaka southpaw had
the sign OF the red man on his team
mates. He was bending the most mys-
terious of shoots over the pan and no
body seemed able 10 get a line on the
brand he had. In the meantime Bak-
ersfield managed to put two through.
so Captain Mohler was busy figuring
on how to beat the game.
When the Seals got into the winning
groove. everything they wanted was
theirs. After Street had made a bad
peg TO the third sack and let two men
go over the route, the finish could be
easily disceFned Joys vision of the

After the seventh spasm Young
Hogue was trotted out on the mound.
The busher seemed to have the original
dope and not a man scored off him.
Joy wanted TO finish the game. but as
ne had been pitching like a machine
for the last few days. Manager Danny
Long gave Street the Office and the
Hawaiian Kid was compelled to take
the rest that he would have liked
somebody else to fall heir TO.
San Francisco played fairly good
