All the old-time professional flyers
were given q holiday at the Ingleside
coursing park yesterday and the buds
had an inning.
Two stakes were contested, one by the
puppies and the other by the saplings, and
l:early 5000 neOple were there TO witness
tie sport. Greatest interest centered in
the puppy event, for the reason that there
were among the entries a joyful mixture
OF youngsters who have already had an
opportunity to show what they can do i'll
the chase, green ones who never faced the
public before, and mysterious strangers
brought in from interior towns about
whose speed all sorts of low down" tips
were circulated. This condition of affairs
made It day for guessing rather than form
figuring, and naturally encouraged the
outs .ders to take a chance at the pool
boxes, such as would not have been the
case had The old dogs been capering about
the field. The play was heavy throughout
the day, and the see-sawing of the re ults
kept everybody in an exnilarating state
OF excitement.
There was a delegation of San Jose
youngsters in the lists which was watched
closely and well backed by the large party
OF sports which came up from the Garden
City with them. The visitors did first
rate holding up their end through the
rundown and getting fair share in the
runoff And what was still more
pleasant TO them, one of their entries,
Cavalier, won the puppy stake. They ex-
perienced one disaster in the semi -finals,
however, which gave them temporary
blues. That was when G. Whitney,
Theron went up against Oriental, a dog
that was practically unknown and not
very much fancied by the wise brigade.
The San Jose scooter was a pronounced
tavorite at odds lowering between three
and four to one. In fact it was difficult to
coax out the Oriental money. Then
the trial came off and the lead pine"
was treated to an ignominioUs defeat
There was mourning in the San Jose
camp.
There was another big reversal during
the day, but this time ii was not the San
