Yesterday'!" field meet was unques- mtmxhlp of Portland people. The line
ttonably the success of the resalta. ' ,h '"" w follows:
About 3000 people went to A. K. C. park
and there witnessed u most intensely
exciting lacrosse contest and a base
ball game which could have been much
better. The lacrosse game attracted
great Interest, and the crowd was at
the fever pitch of excitement for an
hour. It was the first exhibition of
the kind ever witnessed In this city
and the big crowd thoroughly enjoyed
the game. Queen Helen, Queen
Prances of the 1903 regatta. Lieuten
ant General Fulton and his braves. Ad
miral Campbell and his staff were at
the park all afternoon.
The lacrosse game was a fierce and
exciting contest. The Victoria team
played listlessly during the first half,
but in the second smoked up and tiea
the score. The halves were divided Into
halves each of 15 minutes, but there
was little delay.
Curing the first half the Portland
team, which was made up largely of
players Imported from Tacoma and
British Columbia towns, was on the of
fensive and kept the ball in Victoria's
territory. Several unsuccessful shots
for goal were made, but finally, after
10 minutes' play, Jennings put the ball
Into the net, scoring the first goal for
Portland. The Portland men played
fast, snappy lacrosse, and shortly aft
erward scored another goal. Time was
then called for the half, and the men
were given a rest of five minutes.
In the second half the Victoria ag
gregation got Into the game, and in
both quarters kept the Portlanders hard
at work. Lorimer, Victoria's goal, put
up a brilliant game, and several times
prevented what looked to be a certain
score for Portland. The Victoria men
succeeded in scoring two goals in the
last half, tying the score. The'n the
two teams went at it, slashing rig.1t
and left. The contest waged fiercely
for 10 minutes, but neither team was
able to score the deciding goal.
Early In the game the crowd singled
out Mike McCance. Portlands first
borne, who played an excellent game,
and the tall player was subjected to
nuvh good-natured joking. The spec
tacle of men slashing away at each
other with dangerous looking rackets
was something decidedly novel, and
the crowd evinced more Interest in
the game than in any other event ever
held In the city. The game cost the
regatta committee $500. The arrange
ments had been satisfactorily made
-with the Portland team, but Just be
fore the contest yesterday afternoon
the captain of the aggregation put in
an unexpected demand for 150, "for

The Commercial Club bowling team
last night defeated the Multnomah
Club team for the regatta trophy.. The
contest was very close and the locals
won by the narrow margin of five pins.
After the second game the result was
constantly In doubt, and not until the
last ball had been rolled was the re

The Commercial Club baseball team
yesterday went down to defeat before
Multnomah. The locals threw away
the game, although It can be truthful

story, and It must be told In the same
old way.
There was nothing doing for either
team in the first and second Innings,

stand. Umpire Nace Grant called It a

CLOSS STILL CHAMPION,
Deftats Patton and Shearer in Single
Shell Race of Morning.
Gloss of Portland yesterday won the
single shell Pacific coast championship
event at the 10th regatta. It was pret
ty generally conceded that he had i
cinch on this event, and the result was
not surprising. Lambertson of Port
land, Debrlssay of Victoria and Schmld
of Portland were to have contested
out ianea to appear. Schmld was
cracked up to be a wonder and was
looked upon to give a good account of
himself. The previous night he left
the city, however.
Gloss was opposed by Patton of
Portland and Fred Shearer of Vancou
ver. Gloss had the Inside smooth
course, while Shearer, the youngest
man in the bunch, was In rough water.
Gloss rowed the race of his life and
won by three lengths. Shearer gave a
splendid account of himself, pushing
i Patton hard for second place. He fin

Patton. Shearer gives promise of be

Roxy passed third.
In the fifth Commercial scored again.

but the visitors deny the story. They
rowed their best, but were unable to
defeat the local crew. Their failure
to win was undeniably due to the con
dition of the shells, the seats of which
did not work properly, necessitating
several stops. The Vancouver boys de
clare the Astoria four pulled a good
race and expect to see them come to
