Few Changes
In Sports for
POrtOla Week
Committees Busy in Completing
Fine Program of Various
Athletic Pasfines
By HERBERT HAUsER

The plans for the Portola athletic
week are rounding in shape There
have been a few changes in the pro-
gram. The boxing will start Tuesday
night. the 18th Instead of a regular
tournament, as was planned at first,
there will be a series of special
matches. interspersed with matches be-
tween the champions of the different
warships in port. An admission will
be charged for the boxing, which will
take place at Dreamland rink Wednes-
day night a series of special wrestling
matches and sparring exhibitions have
been arranged. Ladies will be ad-
mitted. This affair win be strictly in
yitational. Thursday night viii see the
windup of the boxing matches.
The rowing regatta, which was origi-
nally scheduled for Saturday morning,
has been set for Friday morning, and
the auto race will be held Saturday
morning.
The athletic meet which will be held
Friday afternoon at the Stadium prom
ises TO eclipse anything of its kind
ever held in the state.
Athletes from all over the country
have signified their intention to par
ticipate in the meet. The committee
has been busy answering the inquiries
of prospective contestants. At meet
ing of the committee. which was held
Thursday night. the matter of who
should serve as officials was carefully
gone over and a number of names
were considered. The experience of
last Saturdays meet was lesson to
the Portola committee, and ii should
profit by the experience.
No person, no matter who he is, will
be allowed to enter the Enclosure unless
he has an official badge. Each official
viii be given his instructions at a
meeting that will be held the evening
prior to the meet. Timers and judges
of finish win have a small stand for
themselves a the finish line. Contest
ants viii be allowed to sit on benches
along the iron railing when not COM
peting. The queens stand will be i'm
mediately opposite the finishy outside
the iron fence. A telephone system
will be installed on the track so that
il will not be necessary for officials to
run about the field and obstruct the
view of the many thousands of spec
tators who come out to see the meet.
A large announcing board will be To-
Gated on the field, so that the specta-
tors will know the winners of each
event The committee has practically
made up its mind to appoint John
Elliott as referee and George James
as starter.
The swimming tournament will be
held on Friday night at the new Lur-
line baths. a number of the best
southern California swimmers will be
brought up TO the meet.
