GENERAL SPORTING NEWS OF THE DAY

MORRIS PARK RACE TRACK, Oct. 10
The racing season in New York State closed
here this afternoon in q blaze of glory. the
bulk of which must be placed to the credit
of Jockey Martin Bergen. That young
man won the closing event, a six-furlong
heat race, with Arab in two straight heats.
On both occasions Helen Rose was the bet
ter racer, but Bergen's superhuman efforts
won on the post with Arab, where any
other Jockey but Garrison would have
failed. The heats were fought with SO
much determination that the spectators lost
their usual calm sense in urging the horses
and riders and then applauding Bergen.
In both bettings Arab was the favorite.
The sport was inaugurated with gallop-
ing victory for Stonell, the 4 to favorite.
Liselg, to 1, then dumped the talent by
winning the second race as easily as did
Stonell the first. Extra, the 6 to favorite,
was unable to get place. Rex should have
won the third event, but Covington rode the
colt all around his opponents, and was
beaten scant length BY Aloha, Z to l. Rex
was running easv, while McCafferty was
whipping Aloha vigorously.
Then came the r>ce for the White Plains
handicap. Helen Nichols, the even money
favorite, won by short head. Hugh Penny,
8 to 1, was winning, but McCaferty had de-
clared to win with Helen and Doggett
pulled Hugh up and let the filly win on the
post. Young Arion, 5 to 1, came with
great rattle and finished third, a head be-
hing Hugh Penny. McCafferty was vigor-
ously applauded by the spectators by full
filling his promise to win with the filly.
In the betting on the Pelham Bay handi-
cap st. Felix ruled to favorite, but Pick
pocket, greatly favored In the weights and
