"Disabuse the public mind OF the idea
that Coney Island is getting any the

was much discussed last Winter, and
there is an agreement signed by the

to be claimed by any one association.
1T was agreed that each and every
association could race on that date II
1t chose. There Is no hard feeling
between the associations. in fact, their
relations are more friendly than ever
before You can take my word for
this. Coney Island, however. has no
more right to the July date than
any one else
