year with the Rutland Gun club, have
been made June 10 and II, instead Of
June 4 and 8, as first planned. The
traps viii be placed on the grounds on
Park street.
w. G. Hill, an expert shot, repre-
sentative Of the Remington Arms COM
pany and the Union Metallic Cartridge
company, was in Rutland Thursday and
talked with committee from the Gun
club, consisting Of Charles Davis and
Ray Wheeler about changes that would

viii probably be made before the shoot
in June.
100 Gunners From Many Clubs.
IL Is expected by the committee that
at least 100 gllnners, including many
professionals and experts, will be pres
ent at the shoot. These men will large
" come from Vermont state clubs, but
there are classes omen 10 the world. For
a few Of these events, cups viii be Of

eral men.
Gives Exhibition of Shooting.
Mr. Hall gave an exhibition OF shoot.
ing at the traps Thursday afternoon.
Under adverse weather conditions, such
as a heavy wind and the traps working
badly. he rolled up scores of 90 and 81
out of % birds, making several very
difficult shots. Mr.. Hill demonstrated
the new 1908 model of Remington gun.
This gun is equipped with a patent
eieetor, which is very powerful. Mr..
Hill performed one feat which shows
clearly its perfection. After shooting
one shell he turned the gun and elected
the shell, which went so high in the
air that he was able, by quick work, 10
blow IL to pieces before Il reached the
ground. With the new repeating Rem
ington IS calibre rifle. Mr.. Hill shot FIVE
times at a brick thrown into the air
about twenty feet. hitting it with the
sixth shot and breaking il into fine
powder. He missed the first shots on
purpose to exemplify the rapidity Of
the repeater. This part of the gun
works automatically, the power being
furnished by the recoil.

GLENDALE HIGH ABOUT
TO START TRAINING
HOPES TO TAKE HON0RS ON
TRACK AND IN FIELD
Coach Howe Feels Well Satisfied with
the Material at His Disposal,
Promising Candidates
Having Appeared

Athletes Of the Glendale high school
started regular training yesterday aft
ernoOn on the strawberry cinderpath
and several promising candidates made
their appearance on the field. The
school has developed some fast ath-
letes during the past few years, both
in track, baseball and basketball. Last
season it won the Suburban league
basketball championship, and this sea-
son it expects to carry away honors in
track and field events. AS yet no cap
tain for the track squad has been Sc
lected, but by Friday one will be
chosen for the school term.
Coach Howe, who will have charge
Of athletics this year, is well pleased
with the candidates that have reported.
For the pole vault Walton is making
a good showing. He will try for the
mile also.
Richard Strang is out for the low
hurdles and the 100-yard dash. Cat
ceral will try for the 440 and S80-yard
dashes. Ralph Bouern is the only stu
dent so far trying for the 44O-yard
dash. Roach will be out for the 22O
and broad jump, as he has done 5
feet inches in practice. For the high
hurdles Arthur Taylor and Howard
Kern will be contestants. For the shot
put and hammer Clarence Emmery is
the only candidate.
Last year the Glendale institution
failed to place a football eleven in the
field, but it expects to have a strong
squad this year.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-01-06

and long distance runner and Connol-
lev has an unofficial record for the 20
mile run.
George B. Miller, winner of the
Venice race, has signed up for the new
Marathon event. The following already
have given in their names and are in
training for the race: Ed DIETRICH, win
ner of the first race to Venice; E. j.
Derby, Los Angeles Athletic club ath-
lete; Fri Schrag, participant in the re-
cent race; NJ. L. White, winner of third
place in the Venice race; H. l.. Becker
of Coronado; Charles Boscha, sixth
place in the last race, and Ben Wat
lington, champion swimmer of South
ern California.
A deposit of 81 will be required from
each person entering the race and will
be returned to those who participate.
A statement guaranteeing amateur
standing of each participant also will
be required. Every man will be given
a. physical examination before entering
the race, and should the physicians find
him in the least unfit for the long en-
durance test he will not be allowed to
run.
The Shrine auditorium will not be
greatly inferior to Madison Square gar
den, New York, for the purposes of an
indoor race. Many famous long dis
lance runs have been held in Madison
Square garden, proving the entire FEAST
bility Of the scheme for the new Los
Angeles Marathon race. The New York
course is eleven laps to the mile. The
course here will be one and a half laps
greater to the mile than the eastern
course, which is not enough difference
to count materially.
Six handsome gold medals will be pre-
scented by the Los Angeles Athletic club
to the contestants, while several local
firms have signified their intention of
giving cups, medals or other trophies.

HOLLYWOOD HIGH
HAS GOOD PROSPECTS
MANY CANDIDATES OUT FOR
TRACK HON0RS
Baseball Team Promises to Be Quite
Fast and Should Have Excellent
Chance of Securing
Pennant

HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 5-Athletics are
opening up in grand style at the high
school this term. A large squad of
candidates is out for both track and
baseball, with prospects bright for
strong teams in each. Basketball is
still holding its own among the stu
dents, and a full schedule still re-
mains to be played off this month.
In baseball Coach Webster believes
club. Gene Valdez, who has been in
the game for a number of seasons,
will be the strongest candidate for the
backstop position and is considered a
good man at the bat. Knowles, the
crack football player, will be the
mound artist and is one of the best
pitchers in the county league. He has
played the game several years and
has a great deal of experience. Clay
pool will hold down the initial sack,
as he did last season. The second
base position is being strongly con-
tested by a number of players and it
is yet undecided who will win. Arthur
Hill is showing up well at short and
hopes to make the team. This position
was held for four successive years by
Harry Cover, who graduated last year,
so a new man must be had. Andrews
and Candee are training for the third
sack, but which will win out is at
present rather doubtful.
About ten men are trying for the
outfield, which makes the hope for a
strong bunch of f1elders quite bright.
With a strong infield and battery the
club probably will put up a great
fight for the pennant this coming sea-
son. The league schedule has been
adopted, the first game being scheduled
squad this year.

HOLD MARATHON
IN AUDITORIUM
INDOOR EVENT SCHEDULED
FOR FEBRUARY ~
Committee in Charge Meets and Ar
ranges Details for Big Race, and
Several Eastern Cracks
May Participate

Followers of amateur athletics will be
glad to know that another great Mara
thon race has been arranged and will
be held February %, Washington's
birthday The event will be unique in
that it will be held indoors on an in
door running track, and the distance
will be the full Marathon distance of
twenty-six miles and 1856 yards.
The recent Marathon race from Los
Angeles to Venice aroused such en-
thusiasm and was such decided sue
cess that it was decided yesterday that
a new race should be held. The ruiz
ners in the last race are anxious to
participate in another and are delighted
at the opportunity to compete at the
full Marathon distance.
The coming event will be held inside
the great Shrine AUDITORIUM, where a
running track will be built Of tanbark,
covered with canvas. The contest CAN
not be interfered with by inclemency of
weather and spectators can enjoy the
spectacle without having to stand for
hours on a street corner waiting for the
runners to appear out of a cloud of
dust.
over 5000 spectators can be accommo-
dated in the Shrine auditorium, and
each will have a splendid view of the
race anu ILlG IullllSIS dL every punt VI
the track. Twelve and a half laps
around the indoor track will constitute
a mile. The contestants will have to
run over $50 laps to complete the race.
The new Marathon race will be run
under the auspices of the A. A. U. of
Southern California and the Los An
geles Athletic club. 1t will be an anna
teur race in every particular. Sanction
already has been obtained for the race,
so that it will be official, and all rec
ords will be recognized throughout the
United States.
Besides the winners of the last Mara
thon race many other western long dis
tance runners, attracted by the success
of the former event, are anxious to take
part in the coming contest. President
Chester Lawrence of the local Mara
thon association telegraphed to SOL
dier'' King and William Connolley of
San Francisco, asking them if they
would like to take part in the race.
Both had expressed a desire to come
south for one of the big races. King is
a well known San Francisco athlete

Extensive Schedule of Matches
with Southern California
Colleges Made

Coach Dean Cromwell of u. s. Q. had
several of his track athletes on the Gin
der path yesterday afternoon, going
over the low hurdles and running the
different dashes.
In the broad jump Williams did II
went 10 feet in the same event. With
a little more practice Cromwell expects
to have Reckard break all u. S. G.
broad jump records.
Roberts, a new man from Oregon
university, did the 220 and 1Oo-yard
dashes in good time. Newmire did the
$50 in fast time and came in breathing
the two miles and finished fresh.
For baseball Ceoch Cromwell has
nearly all his old material back, and
with few exceptions will have about
the same lineup as in former years.
In the pitching department Crossman,
Trotter and Daugherty are the candi-
dates. For catchers Hatch of Whittier
college and Burek, a former student,
are available.
For the initial sack tCooney is the
only student so far who has reported.
Clark and Frazier are out for the key
stone sack.
Coach Cromwell will have a hard
time finding a good man to hold down
shortstop, and so far not a single stu
dent has tried for this position. Wir-
sching will occupy third base this year.
The outfield will be comprised Of Gates,
Hall and Meady.
The basketball fives, both in the
boys and girls departments, are prac-
ticing daily for their basketball sched-
ules, which will be played during the
present month.

DORIES HELD TO
UNIFORM RULES
REGATTA COMMITTEE EXACTS
STRICT OBEDIENCE
Large Number Of Additional Protests
Filed Both on Grounds of Tired
ular Dimensions and AL
legged Fouls

The determination Of the regatta COM
mittee to enforce rigidly the rules of
uniformity among the dory boats en-
tered in the winter races has met with
the general approval Of the members
or the Dory association Of the South
coast Yacht club. Sunday morning the
poats were all measured up by Secre-
tary Stewart Laughlin of the com
m1ttee, and practically all were found
70 oe within the limit Of sail area and
DOat dimensions.
But the members Of the association
ana owners of the various boats went a
step 1arther and various protests were
hled with the committee against sew
eral boats. Once protests began to be
hled, every one wanted to make one.
The result is that the committee has
It's hands full examining into the mer-
Its of the various claims presented.
Joe Fellows Red Fox was protested
on the charge that the rudder had been
cut off and was below the size called
for in specifications. The Kitty was
protested by Mr.. Fellows on the dinen-
sions of the boat itself, and the thick
ness of the center board, which, it is
alleged, do not come up to specifica-
tions.
Before the last race was over, the
Little Mischief was charged with an
alleged foul, and, on the other hand.
yesterday a protest was filed against
the Merrily, charging her with fouling
the Little Mischief. Just what the re-
suits of all these contentious will be
IS hard to tell, but it probably will re-
suit in keeping the boats exactly to the
specifications, and will make the own
ers most careful about fouling.

BLACK jim JEFFRIES
is A SCRAPPER, TOO

NEW YORK, Jan. 5.-Jim Jeffries, a
big black cat owned by Mrs. M. E.
Belts of SIS West One Hundred and
Twenty-fourth street, made things live
ly for a time at the opening of the
seventh championship exhibition of the
Atlantic Cat club yesterday at Madi-
son Square garden.
Jim was docile enough when they
led him away to the judges room dur
ing the awarding of prizes. But they
did not pin blue ribbon on him as
soon as he expected. This stirred his
fighting blood, and every one who came
near him was given battle. AS all
thought too much of their faces to
quietly on the judging until Mrs. Belts
returned and led him away to his ex-
hibit cage.
