There will be no coursing at UnionPark to-morrow,.but a special holi-day stake of forty-eight entries willbe run on Monday. The first brace ofdogs willbe sent to the slips upon thearrival of the 10:15 a. m. train. Theofficials endeavored to secure grey-hounds of the same class and theysucceeded. No one entry stands outabove the others, so there will besome livelyspeculation as to the ulti-mate winner. The likely winners inthe first round look to be:

Pocatelli, the champion greyhound,is in training and willsooi\ be seen inthe running. The hares are excep-tionally strong for this season of theyear and the dogs require severe workto fit them for competition.

P. J. Reilly has registered a litterof seven puppies by McVey-RosieClair. The latter is one of the famousSt. Clairs and much is expected of theyoungsters.

The management of Union Cours-ing Park has announced the annualrenewal of the Inaugural championstake, which will be run on New

The duck shooters are in a quandary

as . to the quality of the sport whichawaits them to-morrow morning on themarshes. The rain of Thursday night

is expected to have some »effect on theshooting, but how much cannot be de-termined until the fun commences.

Some of the men who were out lastSunday had a peculiar experience. Thefog was so thick on some of the pre-serves that the birds could be hearddropping into the ponds and slough3among the decoys and yet could notbe seen. The birds were moving aboutin great numbers. The members of theEmpire Gun Club found the shootingover their ponds- good, but the fog hungover the slough and spoiled the sportthere.

H. L. Betten will fill the responsibleposition of Judge, being the first Call-fornian to act in that capacity since1SS9. The Eastern judges have lnvara-bly advised that a Californian be se-lected, as the habits of the birds aredifferent from those In the East andalso that many men competent to actreside here. The trials are expectedto last throughout the week.

Among the well known sportsmenwho will attend the trials are: Presi-dent W. W. Van Arsdale. SecretaryAlbert Betz. W. S. Tevis. Frank Mas-key, Frank Mayer, C. W. Hibbard,J. S.. Brownell, W. W.

The champion stake tests the con-dition, stamina and bird finding quali-ties of the dogs. While they are do-=nifor only half-hour heats for the firsttime in the other events, here theyare down two hours, making a tryingordeal.

Chief interest centers In the PacificCoast champion stake, entries for whichwill close uoon the completion of theall-age event. Any setter or pointedhaving won a first, second or thirdin a recognized field trial will be eligi-ble. This will be the first running ofthe champion event since 1901 at Cor-onado.

Though no contests have been defi-nitely arranged to tjjke place on thecourse of the Claremont Country Club,several players willbe out for practice,and a contest of some sort is likely tob» held. The Claremont members aremuch pleased with the c«w course,which is interesting and not too diffi-cult. The club, with its handsome,well-equipped clubhouse, fine bowlinggreen and lawn tennis courts, itsioque court, garden, stables, golfcourse and trap-shooting ground, itsexcellent location and th« fine view itaffords, has been pronounced by men-.vhc are familiar with country clubsSn many parts of the United States assuperior to any similar institution inthe Western States and equal to anyin the land.

the California Club. The Golden GateClub has given up tournament play

for the present and has nothing sched-uled until the latter part of January.

In the meantime the boys of theJunior Club and the ladies of theAnnex are taking advantage of therespite and are holding tournamentsregularly.

The Junior Club, which was organ-

ized by Mr. Marvin about two monthsago, has grown with surprising rapid-ity. The club started with abouttwenty members and already has somesixty on the roll. The boys average

almost two tournaments a week, inwhich the entry list is always large

and the interest at a high pitch. Acontinuous tournament was startedlast week and as the boys willbe ableto play after school hours it shouldprove a great success.'

This club will prove an excellenttraining school and will developmany good players. Itis restricted toboys 16 years of age or under. Thedues and initiation fee are small andany boy within the age limit can be-come a member.

The Christmas tournament, whichthe California Club is planning, willbe an interesting affair. Itwill be ascratch doubles in which partners aredrawn. This will make the affairsomething of a lottery. If the bestplayer Jn the club draws a fourth-class man the team will stand abso-lutelyno show to win. I-neeras hard-lyjust to the better players, who havebeen asked to- give handicaps In allthe tournaments of late. A straight

scratch doubles would be more satis-factory and would > be working nohardship on the poorer players.

When the Whitneys \.ere the clubchampions an occasional handicapeven; was always frowned upon. In

those days the men" who were learn-ing the game considered themselvesfortunate if they could get one handi-cap tournament out of three. Nowthe cracks consider themselves lucky

if one tournament in five is a scratchevent.

The New Tear's tournament, whichwill not be interfered with by theChristmas event in case of rain, willbe the annual class singles tourna-ment. It will determine who is thebest man in each -class. Every activemember of the club will participatein this event, which is one of the mostimportant. of the year. It will alsodetermine V^ho. the club's best man is.J. D. MacGavin's departure leaves thisquestion open, r The winner of thefirst class \u25a0 will be the club championfor the year.

The continuous tournament,, whichwas started about three weeks ago,

has not been as successful as was ex-pected....This, however, is not due toa- lack of interest, but

'

is due-

toweather conditions. The board is fullof challenges at .all times . and ,theplayers seem anxious to. get -at oneanother. A mistake; was made:: instarting an event' of this kind in mid-winter. Most of the players cannotget out -during the week and- the at-tendance is so large on Saturday after-noons that the "courts are given overentirely to doubles. This leaves Sun-day the onlylday on which most of themembers can play. Incase of a rainySunday or an' enforced absence fromthe city the matches drag along. Thedays are too short for, a. continuoustourney.

v An event of this kind in thespring or early fall. would .prove agreat success, but, in*mid-summer, orwinter It.is a difficult thing, to (hold.The players, are;. taking more interestin this ,tournament, than any similarone held in the past. ."

The Albion Rover*, having playedmore matches and won a greater num-ber than any other team, stand at thehead of the championship table. TheIndependents, however, drew the byelast Sunday and so had no opportunityto add to their list of victories. TheIndependents are in a better positionwith regard to the ultimate result thanthe Rovers, for they have, lost onlyone match out of six, whereas theRovers have lost two matches out ofeight, or in the proportion of one infour.
