for calling up the a would cause to
blush sonr of the Judges WHO figure
so pr0mmintly at Saratoga and Mon
mouth Park. Mr.. Job Bevis us starter
and time keeper gave universal salts
faction.
There were three contestants in the
3 minute race. Tie horses came down

became apparant that Lilly w hitaker
