GENTRY'S SPEEDY MILE
The Famous Stallion Equals the
Best Pacing Record
IN HIS RACE WITH STAR POINTER

He Wins Three Mile Heats in Close Con-
test. Covering the Second Heat in 2.011%S.
and Captures Purse Of Five Thousand
Dollars.
GLENs FALLS, N Y, Sept 1.-THE first
of the series of three races between the
great pacing stations, John r. Gentry
(2O3A) and Star Pointer (2O4k) for a
purse Of 5000, with $500 added BY the as
ISOLATION should the track record Of 2.03
b0 beaten, took place yesterday on the
mile track of the Northern New York
Trottng Horse Breeders association at
Glens Falls. Last week. at Fleetwood,
John r. Gentry lowered the c0lors of
Robert j., Frank Agan and Star Pointer,
winning the most remarkable harness
race on record, pacing the fastest three
consecutive miles known. Yesterday the
same handsome stallion equaled the
worlds record made by Robert j. at Terre
Haute two years ago, going mile and
winning the heat by almost full length
In 2.0l1a. The average time of the three
heats of yesterdays race was just ono
quarter of u second slower than the worlds
record made at Fleetwood last week.
This match brought out upwards OF
1000 people. Shortly before 2 80 the first
heat of the big event was called Gentry
came first on the track and received m
ovation MS he passed the grand stand. Star
Pointer followed quickly and was equally
well received Star Pointer had the pole.
They started very level and held the po.
sition from the wire to the half mile pole,
with Gentry ut Star Pointers saddle.
Andrews let out loop and Gentry
closed up tho distance, buta moment later
went back to Pointers seat As they sped
around into the home stretch the stations
wore as if In one harness. Then with
furious drive the Fleetwood record holder
pushed his nose ahead, and won the heat
in 2.03M.
The second heat was called at 4 o'clock.
At that timo quite breeze was blowing,
and this seemed to dampcn all hopes Of
record breaking performance. The horses
were given the word on the first score, and
more magnificent race was mover wit
messed They went along as one horse to
tho hve-eighth polo, when Star Pointer,
who was on the outside, straining with
every muscle, managed to show his head
in front. Into the stretch they came and
as Andrews shook up his horse, John r.
Gentry by wonderful burst of speed flew
past his rival, passing under the wire a
full length in front, with the worlds
record Of 20lH. Every person in the vast
assemblage went wild with enthusiasm,
for it seemed even before the time was
posted that u record had gone down.
After SUCH wonderful performance
the third heat proved somewhat of dis
appointment, They got off on the first
score, and, travelling the first half neck and
neck, Star Pointer went back to Gentry's
wheel. He closed again to tho stretch,
when Andrews again made his drive, and
Gentry took the third heat In 0594.
