the century event in good style from
Ollie Snedigar of the Olympic club and
Ralph Hupp of the Pastime club.
The five mile race was won by Billy
Garvin in good time. His teammate,
harry Wood, took the second position.
The quarter mile event scratch was
easily Eddie MacCauley's. The high
hurdles turned out to be the best and
closest event of the day. Beeson, Dona-
hue and Morris running close in the

Game Taken Easily,
Although San Francisco
Wins Morning Contest

The afternoon game was so easy
FOR the Oaks that it was a shame. VOL
verton's sIuggers used up two of Dan
Longs best pitchers. when they raped
Miller for I'VE hits and the same num-
Der of runs in four innings. and treated
Frank Eastley almost as badly when
they hammered his offerings for five
hits which were turned into three runs.
The game was lost by the Seals in
the third inning, when Miller wavered
and was touched off for three hits.
while his team went TO pieces and
contributed enough errors to allow
five runs.
Shaw opened the booting fest for the
Seals by mishandling a drive from
Swander's bat and allowing Eddie to
land safely at first Swander was
nailed out in trying TO steal second, but
ANolverton uncorked a screaming single
and made his way 10 second when Mag
gart singled. Cameron dumped an easy
one down to Mohler, who tossed the
ball to McArdle, figuring on a force
cut for Maggart. McArdle caused
gasp to go up from the crowd when he
dropped the ball, and all three runners
were safe. Willie Hogan showed slow
bounder down TO Shaw, but 'Hunky,
In his eagerness TO cut Wolverton off
at the plate. threw the Dall NllOs d.
lowing the Oaks leader 10 register.
Catcher Berry, after recovering the
bali, made a wild throw to second to
nail Cameron. Lewis. who was backing
up the throw, allowed the ball TO get
through his feet. and Maggart and
Cameron came across
Miller again showed weakness when
he walked Cutshaw, who Immediately
stole second. Wares tore OFF q two

The Oaks brought further discour-
agement TO the Seals rooters by chas-
ing in two more runs in the fifth and
still another in the seventh.
The most startling feature during the
entire game was in the fifth inning,
when the victory of Johnson over JEFF
ries was announced The news was
megaphoned to the crowd and dead si-
lence reigned. This was broken for an
instant by the hand clapping of several
of JOhnsons admirers. which was i'm
mediately drowned by a storm of Kisses
and booing.
In the fourth inning McArdle was
spiked by Maggart. who was trying to
pilfer second. McArdle lay stretched
on the ground for some minutes, but
pluckily resumed playing after the first
spasm Of pain had passed.
