for men played on the course of the Ingleside Golf and Country Club.
Players of international reputation were entered in this event, and as a
result, the play offered sensation after sensation. The tournament was
won by Harry Davis, of the Presidio Golf Club, after a struggle in which
he eliminated such stars as Chick Evans, H. Chandler Egan, Heinrich
Schmidt, and Jack Neville. Davis met Schmidt in the finals of the event
and won only after a dazzling exhibition of driving and putting such as
has seldom been seen on a California course.
In addition to the men's championships, the women were in the limelight
for a week. Miss Edith Chesebrough won the finals of the first flight
play over Mrs. H. T. Baker. Mixed foursomes, events for professionals,
driving, putting, and approaching contests were all included upon the
programme, with gratifying results.
Yachting was granted an appropriate position upon the calendar, the
races scheduled including yachts, sloops and motor boats upon San
Francisco Bay and the ocean waters in the neighborhood of the
Farallones. Perhaps the biggest event upon the programme is to be the
International Regatta scheduled for August 1st to 31st, an event
intended to bring into competition practically every type of racing
craft afloat. This has brought attractive entries from both Eastern and
Pacific clubs.
Special events were also arranged. A schooner race, with a course
starting from a point on the bay off the Exposition and extending to the
Farallone Islands, is one of them. Perhaps the most attractive of these
events, however, will be the long-distance race for yachts from New York
to San Francisco. The boats are to sail along the Atlantic seaboard,
reaching San Francisco via the Panama Canal. Several entries for this
contest have already been filed, and it is expected that by the time set
for the start, a first class field will be ready to weigh anchor.
Handsome cups, furnished by the Exposition for winners in the different
nautical events, include many valuable trophies.
Boxing, the professional phase of which was recently abolished by an act
of the California legislature, found an important place upon the
Exposition programme. Amateur events staged at the Civic Auditorium
excited great interest. By a special arrangement with the Amateur
Athletic Union, the Exposition management obtained the national winners
of Boston for the San Francisco tournament. Accordingly, the best of the
country's amateur glove crop exhibited their wares to big galleries. In
the matter of championships, California and the Pacific Northwest
obtained the chief honors, several of the Eastern ring stars falling by
the wayside in their work.
Not to be found wanting in the completeness of their scheme, the
Exposition directors are still busy with plans which promise many events
of unusual attractiveness for the Fall. It is hinted that the winner of
the world's baseball series, waged between the National and American
leagues, will be brought to the Coast for an exhibition series in
October, to play against an all star team. Other phases of sport during
the Exposition period include rowing, lawn tennis, handball and certain
types of football, though disagreements between the two largest
universities of the Coast have made the autumn sport an uncertain
quantity.
XX.
The Joy Zone
A mile of amusement places, many of which are really educational--The
Panama Canal, Grand Canyon, Yellowstone Park and the native villages--
"The 101 Ranch"--"Toyland Grown Up"--Other notable features.
The Joy Zone, nearly a mile in length, is a broad avenue bordered with
closely packed places of amusement. There are more than one hundred
concessionaires, with two hundred and twenty buildings devoted to
refreshment or pleasure, including a few in other places on the grounds.
Here are all sorts of divertissements, from roller coasters to really
great educational sights like the Panama Canal or the Grand Canyon.
By common consent the Panama Canal is the most noteworthy feature of the
Zone. Indeed, it ought not to be on the Zone. It should have had a place
in the Exposition proper, as one of its finest exhibits. The show is a
working reproduction of the Panama Canal, on so large a scale that it
covers five acres. The landscape of the Canal Zone is faithfully
reproduced, with real water in the two oceans, the Gatun Lake, the
Chagres River and the Canal. The visitor sees it from cars which travel
slowly around the scene, and which are fitted with telephonic
connections with a phonograph that explains the features of the Canal
Zone as the appropriate points are passed. Next to seeing the Canal
itself, a sight of this miniature is the most interesting and
instructive view possible of the great engineering feat. In one way it
is even better than a trip through the Canal. It gives the broad general
view impossible from any point on the Isthmus itself.
In much the same class are the reproductions of the Grand Canyon and the
Yelllowstone Park. The Grand Canyon has an added interest in the
presence of Navajo and Hopi families living in reproductions of their
desert homes. Representing other native races, there are the Samoan
Village, the Maori Village, and the Tehuantepec Village. All these
people are genuine and live in primitive style on the Zone, though, to
tell the truth, they are quite likely to use college slang and know
which fork to use first. Not on the Zone, but proper to be mentioned
here, are the Blackfoot Indians brought to the Exposition from Glacier
Park by the Great Northern Railroad. Eagle Calf is a real chief of the
old days, and his band is a picturesque group.
There is Toyland Grown Up, a product of the astonishing genius of
Frederic Thompson, creator of Luna Park, covering nearly twelve acres
and packed with Thompson's whimsical conceptions of the figures of the
Mother Goose Tales, Kate Greenway's children, and soldiers and giants,
and the familiar toys of the Noah's Ark style-all on a gigantic scale.
Japan Beautiful, a concession backed by the Japanese Government, has
many interesting features, including the enormous gilded figure of
Buddha over the entrance and a reproduction of Fujiyama in the
background. Then there is an Antarctic show entitled "London to the
South Pole;" the Streets of Cairo; the Submarines, with real water and
marine animals; Creation, a vast dramatic scene from Genesis; the Battle
of Gettysburg; the Evolution of the Dreadnaught; and many other
spectacles and entertainments of many classes, but all measuring up to a
certain standard of excellence insisted upon by the Exposition. The
Aeroscope, a huge steel arm that lifts a double decked cabin more than
two hundred and fifty feet above the ground and then swings it around in
a great circle over the Zone, is one of the thrillers.
The Joy Zone has suffered from the excellence of the Exposition to which
it is the side-show. The Exposition itself is so wonderful a sight and
contains so vast a number of remarkable and interesting things that
multitudes have been content to stay with it, too much engrossed to find
time for any but a few of the best things on the Zone. No better
evidence could be found of the beauty, interest and value of this
Exposition.

(D) Bibliography
The Panama-Pacific Exposition presents so many aspects of public
importance that it will doubtless inspire a considerable library of
books upon its various features. Those heretofore published, however,
agree in testifying to the unprecedented appeal which it makes on its
artistic side; they have attempted little more than to describe the
architecture of the main exhibit palaces, and interpret the Sculpture
and murals which adorn them.
